Chapter 1186: Chapter 1173: With great power comes great responsibility Chapter 1186: Chapter 1173: With great power comes great responsibility The sudden sound, along with the dragon’s prestige that pervaded the air, combined with the temperature of the entire city’s atmosphere rocketing upwards at an unnatural speed, such massive environmental changes instantly intimidated the Eye Demon Lord in front of Karor.

The Eye Demon Lord’s five unevenly sized orbs stared intently at Karor, who was well-prepared, or rather, at the aura rising from his body.

A faint, hazy light emanated from Karor’s body and spread upwards to the top of his head, where a small, seemingly delicate magic array appeared. Then, a claw wrapped in scales but with clearly defined muscle contours emerged from the array.

The claw covered with deep red scales scratched at the edge of the magic array, and then, it fiercely yanked apart the array, tearing the space like fragile cloth.

From the shattered black space rift, a ferocious head protruded, its dragon’s eyes like two small magma boulders fixed intently on the Eye Demon Lord, who was continuously retreating, overflowing with emotions of tyranny and a desire for slaughter.

“What are you?” the Eye Demon Lord let out a somewhat astonished soul sound, inquiring about the creature before it, wrapped in an evil aura visible to the naked eye.

“What am I?” The Red Dragon heard this question and suddenly grinned, revealing its snow-white, gleaming dragon teeth filled with intense malice, “I am your grandfather!”

Roar!

After speaking, the Red Dragon did not bother with niceties, opened its jaws wide, and a deep red light surged from its throat. The light burst forth rapidly, morphing into a blazing light pillar that directly struck the largest eyeball of the Eye Demon Lord’s body.

Boom!

Like the sound of a liquid-filled sealed object exploding, viscous fluids with a strange and foul smell splattered wildly, followed by a sharp, piercing scream heard only by intelligent creatures, as the sound resonated only on the soul level.

“Rubbish!”

Seeing that a single breath had exploded the core organ of the opponent’s body, the Red Dragon spoke dismissively. However, even as it scorned the other, it also didn’t forget to extricate more of its body from the space rift.

And when the monsters wreaking havoc and destruction in the city noticed that one of their stronger kind had been severely injured, they instinctively surged towards the situation and soon surrounded the Red Dragon, who was freeing itself from the space rift.

Facing the visually striking monsters that surrounded it, the Red Dragon felt no fear but was even excited.

Crack!

It seized the continuously trembling Eye Demon Lord, whose central body had been seriously injured. Then, in front of many monsters’ eyes, a claw reached out, grabbing the smallest of the four remaining eyes on the body of the Eye Demon Lord. The Red Dragon pulled it off fiercely and crushed it.

The thick fluid dripped from the dragon claw but soon evaporated due to the high temperature emanating from the Red Dragon’s body, and an extremely unpleasant smell dispersed in the air.

However, the Red Dragon obviously did not care about this. It seemed to enjoy the sensation of bursting the opponent’s body so much that the treacherous and sadistic factor in its bloodline was fully activated. Thus, it grabbed the second eyeball, ready to rip it off,
At this point, the surrounding monsters could no longer sit still. They could not watch one of their kind being so brutally killed by this dragon that had emerged from who knows where.

“Ah, roar, what do you riffraff think you’re doing? You want to gang up on your lord?”

Seeing the tendency to be attacked for persecuting the Eye Demon Lord, the first Ancient Red Dragon Auston’s eyes were full of pride. He was no longer proud of his bloodline but proud of the powerful thigh he was clinging to.

Thus, he looked down at these monsters with a condescending gaze. He did not care for any of these ugly creatures. The only one slightly better was this little girl beneath him, whom he had used as a marker and pursued.

“Haven’t you heard what your lord just said when he came out? Do you know whose territory this is? Hehe! This is Lord Muria’s domain!”

Auston proudly announced the name of the one he followed, but clearly, these Evil God’s Followers had never heard of it. They looked at each other with some confusion, then with even fiercer gazes at the Red Dragon, who was still introducing itself.

“And I, Ancient Red Dragon Auston Igneel, am Lord Muria’s strongest Dragon Race follower!”

The powerful Red Dragon spun in the city’s airspace, then spread its crimson dragon wings, which seemed to cover the entire city’s sky. It was because of its strength that the Evil God’s Followers rampaging through the city had not yet attacked.

“And now, you dare attack his strongest follower in the domain of a Lord, you brainless riffraff are looking for death, seeking your own destruction.”

Snicker!

Amidst the self-introduction and the words that had been brewing in its mind for a long time, the emotion of the Red Dragon Auston became more and more exhilarated, and so, he exploded another eyeball of the Eye Demon Lord that he held in his hand.

At this point, the Evil God’s Followers could no longer bear it. Even if they were followers of another Evil God, they could not be treated this way.

Whiz! Whiz! Boom!

Thus, a barrage of pure elemental rays, along with negative-effect-laden curse rays and destruction-focused annihilating rays, were fired simultaneously at the immense Ancient red dragon circling above the city.

But these incredibly loud, seemingly destructive rays, under the astonished gaze of Karor below, ninety-nine percent of them simply passed through the dragon’s body and shot further into the sky, with a negligible one percent exploding upon the dragon’s body, causing no injuries whatsoever.

“Roar! Damn trash, you’ve hurt me!” The Red dragon, its scales gleaming as if new, circled in the sky and let out an enraged roar, then the large and agile Ancient dragon danced through the air.

Next, a destructive rain of fire descended from the sky, striking each of the Evil God’s Followers with precise hits, bringing them death and demise.

“How’s that? Little girl!”

With Karor already stunned into silliness, the Ancient dragon that turned the entire city into a sea of fire descended in front of her and then asked her.

“Am I strong or not?”

“Strong!” Faced with such terrifying power, what else could Karor say but mechanically nod her head, while the child she clutched in her arms had fainted the moment Auston descended.

“Hehe!” Hearing the acknowledgment from a female of a Different World, Auston laughed proudly.

“That’s just a little girl not even old enough to compare to a fraction of your years, and you’re interested in her?” Muria’s voice echoed within the Ancient dragon’s soul, tinged with a faint hint of helplessness.

“Boss, you don’t get it, true love transcends race and age.”

“If you spout more nonsense, believe it or not, I’ll give you a permanent physical castration, and trust me, the Ancient Dragon’s regenerative ability will fail in the presence of my power.”

“I believe,” hearing such a threat, the Ancient red dragon Auston immediately became well-behaved, “but Boss, haven’t I already completed the task you gave me? Now that there’s nothing to do, can’t I even chat with a little girl?”

“Who told you you’re done? The war has just begun, didn’t you just boast about being the strongest under my command? The greater the capability, the greater the responsibility; since you are the strongest, you must hold your position at the heart of the battlefield, where the battle is the fiercest.”

Thus, under Karor’s somewhat dazed gaze, the red dragon in front of her, who seemed to want to say something to her yet hesitated, began to gradually fade, and eventually vanished into thin air.

…

In a certain airspace, the massive one-eyed monsters were locked in a crazy battle with the Riding Giant Peng Legion, and from time to time, huge corpses fell from the sky.

And just when the situation was at its most intense, a black Space Rift suddenly appeared in the sky, and a ferocious red dragon was forcefully and brutally thrust into the battlefield.

“One-eyed giants?” Seeing the look of the Evil God’s Followers battling with the Storm Giants atop the Giant Pengs, Auston, who had been forcibly squeezed in, immediately became interested.

With mighty strength and a body that allowed him to rampage across the battlefield, the Prideful red dragon quickly captured a one-eyed giant. He “dissected” the Evil God’s Follower in his hand in an extremely brutal manner to study and understand its structure.

Soon enough, driven by pure intellectual curiosity, Auston had gruesomely torn apart seventeen one-eyed giants. When I say ripped apart, he truly ripped the flesh off these nearly humanoid monsters inch by inch just for research.

It looked exceptionally bloody and violent, but it also gave Auston a rough understanding of these creatures, “Boss, these monsters have impressive brute strength, do you want to create similar Minions and make actual one-eyed giants?”

“Too ugly,” Muria provided an unassailable reason for refusal, “Three-eyed giants, I can accept, but one-eyed giants, I refuse to create.”

“Three eyes? Boss, what exactly are you planning to make, do you need me to offer some suggestions?”

“Shut up, focus on the battle, you haven’t killed nearly enough.”

“??! Boss, what are you trying to do?”

“To draw out the Evil God Avatar!”

“Not to be that guy, but isn’t that too dangerous?” Auston became somewhat panicked.

“It’s risky, but who else but you, the strongest under my command? The greater the power, the greater the responsibility; who else but you for such an arduous task?” Muria said cheerfully.

“Not that I think I can’t…”
“Don’t talk about what you think you can do, I think you can.” Muria cut him off bluntly, then the power surge beyond Legend manifested above the battlefield where Auston, a mass murderer, was.
