1102 Dregs Are Dregs



As Zowen planned, Tang Shaoyang showed up openly, walking toward the entrance of the Epic Rank Garden. There was no one stopping him from getting closer, and he thought that these groups that watched the entrance would not come at him immediately.

However, he miscalculated that one thing as one group came out from their hiding spot and blocked the entrance. The group comprised six people, and he recognized three of them, Lulu, Roman, and Lulu's brother.  Lulu's brother had his eyeball back, and it seemed his tongue also regenerated. That was the wonder of potion or the healer class. As long as one was alive, they could generate the parts of the body.

Of course, Tang Shaoyang had a way of making the tongue and eyeball could not regenerate with his Slayer Energy. He chose not to use it because it would expose it to every faction in the city, and he might face another group of God Rank.

"It seems you haven't learned the lesson yet, Young Master Mistovel." Tang Shaoyang smiled, completely at ease despite facing six people. As he said that, he used Detection on the four since he already knew Roman and Lulu were Epic Rank.

"Should I feel flattered that you bring four Primordial Ranks to guard the entrance only to catch me, Young Master Mistovel?"

Young Master Mistovel gritted his teeth as he remembered the humiliation from a few days ago. That was a humiliation in his life that merely an Ancient Rank did that to him. Primordial Rank could not defend or fight back against the Ancient Rank. Because of that, he had become a laughingstock in the city.

"But why are you bringing these two burdens with you? I don't think they will be any help for you." Tang Shaoyang kept taunting the group.

The Young Master took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He did not fall for the taunt and conveyed the Mistovel Family's will, "The Mistovel Family will be lenient toward you for what you have done to me, and also because you have saved my sister from the Virandal Empire. We will not pursue the matter that happened a few days ago, but in exchange, you have to hand over the dragon to the Mistovel Family!"

A silence followed after what was supposed to be the Mistovel Family's generosity. Tang Shaoyang stayed still, blinking his eyes a few times as he stared at Young Master Mistovel.

"The Dragon Bloodline is supposed to enhance my senses, and it includes my hearing. But It seems there's something wrong with my hearing." Tang Shaoyang pretended to clear his ears. "Did I mishear that you asked me to hand over my dragon? I know you are shameless, but I don't think you are so shameless to this extent. This is what I get from saving your sister? To hand over my possession to you?"

Then he could not hold his laughter anymore. He thought a shameless character like Young Master Mistovel only existed in drama series. Not just the character existed, but he also met the person. He stopped laughing after a solid thirty seconds. It was so funny but also frustrating because he experienced it himself.

"What's your answer?" Young Master Mistovel asked once more, not caring what Tang Shaoyang said about him. In his eyes, getting the Golden Dragon was more important than mere pride. If he could get the Golden Dragon, then he could bring the Mistovel Family up to another level.

Tang Shaoyang took out [Mzed], his new weapon, and put it on his shoulder, "This is my answer. I am going to kill…. Nah, killing you all will not resolve my frustration for being an idiot. I will make you beg me to kill you." He grinned ear to ear.

"It's unfortunate for you to make such a decision. I plan to marry you with my sister since you have a dragon bloodline, just like us. But now we can't resolve the issue without force. I will capture you and force you to summon the dragon!"

Young Master Mistovel signaled his subordinates to make their move. The three Primordial Ranks with no hesitation to use the bloodline transformation. Green scales replaced their armor, and their eyes also turned green. Even though the scale was similar to the dragon scale, it was not a dragon scale. The difference was obvious three did not have the dragon bloodline.

However, Tang Shaoyang overheard the whisper from the other groups that came closer to watch. They whispered something about the Drake Squad of the Mistovel Family; the squad consisted of Mistovel Family's people with Drake Bloodline. This was his first time hearing about Drake, so he did not know what kind of creature Drake was. However, he could tell that the Drake Squad must be the Mistovel Family's elite force.

[Those dregs are just lizards. People call them the inferior dragon because Drake resembles a dragon, but they are much weaker than a dragon. There's nothing to be worried about!]

Avyn's voice rang in Tang Shaoyang's head, and the annoyance was clear in her tone. It seemed she had a backstory with the drake that he did not know about.

"Dregs? I thought they were Drake?" Tang Shaoyang blurted out as he realized that Avyn said something different. He thought Dreg was some kind of the ancient Drake type, just like her, the Ancient Dragon.

[I think it's just Lady Avyn's pun, Master.] Orlean, The Demon Prince, spoke in his head. [Drake is indeed weaker than a dragon, but you can't underestimate them, Master. Drake is still stronger than most beasts, and they are similar to Kirin, the beast that inherited dragon bloodline too.]

[Dreg is Dreg; why would you make it like they are some sort of strong being. Let me fight them, and I will kill them with a single breath.]

Tang Shaoyang did not doubt that she could kill them with a single breath as long as she unleashed her God Rank's power. However, her power was limited as a summon because of his rank. Even if she could use her God Rank's power, the System would not allow her to do so.

'Come on, Avyn. I can't show you yet. You are my trump card, and I can't show you yet, or those factions will swarm at me. Let me handle these guys, and I also want to try my new weapon.'

After saying that, Tang Shaoyang used [Spirit Integration] with Karan, the Firestorm Berserker.

"It's been a while, Karan. Are you ready for another fight?"

Tang Shaoyang grew a half meter taller, and his skin turned red instead of green this time. Karan's new evolution after evolving into Firestorm Berserker turned his skin red. This was really the first time that he integrated with Karan again after using Spirit Blessing on Karan.

He could feel the rampaging urge inside him as his mind whispered to him, telling him to fight not just the people from the Mistovel Family but also the other groups. This was a big change, and it seemed this was Karan's state of mind after the orc became a berserker. If it was another fight, he would try to control the urge, but he felt like this was his current state of mind after what happened with the guild.

After the integration, he used [Infernal Wrath], boosting his attribute up to high Primordial while his Magic Power broke through to the middle rank of the Legend Rank. He then activated [Attribute Shift], lowering his Magic Power to peak Epic Rank and increasing his Agility and Strength. This was a close combat fight, so he figured out that he did not need that much mana and magic attack.

The three people of the Drake Squad noticed the change and immediately darted toward Tang Shaoyang. They did not want to give Tang Shaoyang a chance to unleash his full power. Even though Tang Shaoyang was just an Ancient Rank, he was not a normal Ancient Rank, an Ancient Rank with Dragon Bloodline.

"You should not rush recklessly like that for an Elite Squad." Tang Shaoyang raised his right foot and stomped on the ground. He activated Karan's skill, [Earth Split]. The ground split up, causing the three Drake Squad to lose their balance. However, they managed to regain their footing as they avoided falling into the pit, but the moment they raised their heads, they met with two spinning axes. The flying axes were covered in firestorms, blazing and creating sparks; it was the new [Wild Axes] after Karan evolved into Firestorm Berserker.

The three swung their swords at the flying axes, destroying the axes easily. However, they did not predict what came after that. The axes exploded, engulfing the three Drake Squads in firestorms. Of course, the firestorm was not enough to kill them all. With a single swing of their swords, they swept the firestorm away. Even though the firestorm was easily dispersed, they did not leave unscathed from the two attacks from Tang Shaoyang. The scorched scales were proof that the firestorm could hurt them.

Tang Shaoyang used [Blink], shortening the distance between him and one Drake Squad. He raised his battle ax and swung it down to the unprepared Drake Squad. The latter raised his sword horizontally above his head, trying to block the incoming battle-ax.

As he brought down the battle ax, the blade produced firestorms. The moment the battle-ax touched the sword, the firestorm exploded, engulfing Tang Shaoyang and the Drake Squad. The other two Drake Squad members kept their distance from the firestorm. Not that they were afraid of the firestorm, but because they trusted their comrade would be able to hold the attack. They would come to Tang Shaoyang after the firestorm dispersed, avoiding unnecessary damage.

Before the firestorm dispersed, the two saw a figure flying off the firestorm. They then found out the figure was their comrade, flying backward with his body arched backward. The two exchanged a glance for a moment before rushing toward their friend.

Their friend crashed to the ground and did not wake. When they got closer, and saw the green scale on their friend's belly shattered, revealing the burned black mark and the sizzling noise from the blood.
