Almost in the blink of an eye, those humans were plunged into dire straits.

The Fire Dragon’s attack came so suddenly that they didn’t even have time to react before they were enveloped by the raging flames in the fields. After cutting off the prey’s escape route, the Fire Dragon began to hover at a low altitude, attempting to hunt.

But Fang Zheng certainly would not let it succeed.

“Boom!!”

A bolt of thunder from the sky struck the Fire Dragon’s body in an instant, and under the astonished gaze of the onlookers, the Fire Dragon was scorched black by the lightning, followed by innumerable bolts that flew like spears, pinning the Fire Dragon firmly to the ground. The severely injured Fire Dragon struggled briefly before it gradually collapsed, motionless.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned, then the leading man hurried to the side and vigorously spun a wheel, after which, accompanied by the sound of water “plop,” the flames that had been raging in the field were quickly extinguished. Meanwhile, Fang Zheng also descended slowly, eyeing them curiously.

“Ah… I never expected to encounter a group of mortals here; it seems your vitality is as tenacious as that of Old Mouse…”

“Hiss————!!”

Facing Fang Zheng, the humans showed a universal expression of fear, and several even fainted without a sound. The leading man gripped a weapon resembling a crossbow, fixating on Fang Zheng. After a moment, he asked with a trembling voice,

“You, you are Neltharion, the ‘Earth Guardian’?”

“Yes, that’s me.”

Fang Zheng was not surprised that the man recognized him. In fact, on his way here, he had saved many humans from Fire Dragon attacks. However, when fighting Fire Dragons in front of humans, Fang Zheng would not normally pounce and bite but would use Shaping Magic to attack instead.

Being human himself, Fang Zheng certainly knew how to awe and intimidate them. If you pounce like a wild beast, you might scare them, but it won’t inspire respect and fear. After all, it’s not new for humans to face stronger wild beasts; since ancient times, primitive people armed with spears dared to kill mammoths, and even in this era, these people would not submit to Fire Dragons. Hence, if you only display overwhelming strength, in human eyes, the so-called “Earth Guardian” is nothing more than a beast a bit stronger than a Fire Dragon.

However, a Giant Dragon capable of manipulating elemental forces is different.

Controlling lightning, flames, storms, and water flows at will—such abilities align with humans’ perception of a true Dragon rather than those mere flame-spewers.

Therefore, every time Fang Zheng attacked the Dragon Horde in front of humans, he would cast various Shaping Spells to let them witness his power. It is for this reason that these humans did not doubt his identity or ponder things they should not consider.

These rumors must have already spread among human settlements, which is why they recognized him.

“Oh God… I thought it was just a rumor…”

Looking at Fang Zheng before them, one of the men trembled and muttered to himself. Suddenly, he rushed out from the crowd and knelt before Fang Zheng.

“Neltharion Master, have you come to save us?”

“I’m just here to exterminate the pests that endanger this land.”

Fang Zheng patted the Little Fire Dragon that was squeaking on his back and narrowed his eyes as he scanned the people before him.

“By the way, I have some questions for you mortals.”

“…What are your orders?”

Hearing this, the leading man swallowed hard, glancing at the crossbow arrow he was clutching tightly before setting it down.

“According to my investigation, among these lowly reptiles, there should be a leader.”

Fang Zheng once again displayed the demeanor of Neltharion.

“In the vague premonitions of the future, I have seen its existence. It should be here, in this cursed land of origin. So, mortals, do you have any clues? About this land of origin, about those reptiles—where do they come from?”

“I, I know!!!”

Upon hearing Fang Zheng’s inquiry, the lead man hesitated for a moment before hurriedly looking up at Fang Zheng.

“I know… In London, there’s a very powerful Fire Dragon… It’s formidable, even more so than any other Fire Dragon I’ve seen! And I can assure you, that is the very place where these Fire Dragons first appeared!”

“Very well.”

Fang Zheng nodded in satisfaction upon hearing the man’s response.

“In which direction?”

“Over there…”

The man stretched out his hand, pointing towards the southwest. Then he hesitated again but ultimately said nothing.

“Your soul is quite interesting, mortal.”

Fang Zheng gave him a glance before turning away. As a Time Dragon, he could feel that this man had some inextricable connection to the timeline of this world, more precisely, with the beginning of this all-consuming destruction. However, Fang Zheng was not interested in concerning himself with these issues. Now that he had his answer, the next course of action was clear to him.

With that thought, Fang Zheng spread his wings and fluttered them lightly before flying up into the sky.

“Since you have given me the information I desired, I shall not be stingy in rewarding you…”

“Huh?”

Upon hearing Fang Zheng’s words, everyone was flabbergasted, but before they could say anything more, the scene before them left everyone utterly astonished.

They saw the fields around them, previously burnt to ash by the Fire Dragons’ flames, now presented a completely different sight. The lush greenery that had been consumed by the fire reemerged, and the tender sprouts that were swallowed by the flames now showed signs of vigorous vitality. It was as if everything had been reversed, springing back to life before their eyes.

“Oh God…!!!”

Witnessing this scene, the people’s eyes widened in amazement, and some even wept with joy, ceaselessly crossing themselves.

This spectacle had utterly surpassed everyone’s imagination; it was nothing short of a miracle!

Could this be the power of the Earth Guardian?

But as the people recovered from their initial excitement and elation, they were shocked to discover that the giant Black Dragon had already vanished from their sight.

London!

After confirming the direction, Fang Zheng, accompanied by the Little Fire Dragon, flew towards London without hesitation. His intuition had told him that this was the right choice; the “main course” he needed was there!

“Whoosh——”

The howling wind roared as Fang Zheng burst out from amongst the clouds. What lay before him was a massive city that had already become ruins, with numerous Fire Dragons making their nests within. This city that once shone so brightly was now a lair for beasts.

“Roar————!”

Sensing Fang Zheng’s arrival, countless Fire Dragons raised their heads and looked up at the sky, directing angry roars toward the dark shadow descending from above.

And facing the horde of Fire Dragons, Fang Zheng merely smiled coldly.

“Then, let us begin the final feast!”
