The First Legendary Beast Master - Chapter 1188: Resistance to Magic

Chapter 1188: Resistance to Magic

Karl began to cast the portal spell to Drodh and was immediately hit with the most intense resistance to magic use that he had ever felt.

[Cara, a little assistance?]

The Chaos Badger brought up a [Nullify] bubble around him, suppressing the effect. That let the portal form smoothly, just outside the main gates to Drodh.

Karl waved to the city guards and then tossed them a couple of gold coins.

“Can you lead these fine guests to the house? I will ask someone to get in contact with the Supreme Lady, as they are requesting a direct meeting.” Karl explained.

“Of course, Sir. Ladies, Gentlemen. This way, please. We will get you settled in the crafting village for now, as it has lodging for everyone. Karl will have someone here to assist you in just a few minutes.” The guard agreed.

From outside of Karl’s line of sight, a matronly voice replied. “No need. I will see them in. Where did you say that they needed to be?”

“Oh, Librarian Sapphire! Yes, that is perfect. Karl is on the other side of the portal, and he says they need to speak directly to the Supreme Lady.” The Guard replied, sounding incredibly relieved that he didn’t need to be the one to tell someone to bring the Chaos Dragon over.

“Sapphire, before I run away again, how is the project coming?” Karl called.

“Very well. We’ve got the Inscriptionists from the Library here, and they’re working overtime on the skills needed for advanced Warriors, Clerics and Mages. Mage is still a bit spotty, as not every mage is compatible with the advanced spells we have found.

But there are also more advanced Mage Class residents compared to Advanced Warriors, so they’re not our biggest concern.” She replied, then frowned.

“How long will you be gone? We could use your expertise here as well.”

Karl smiled, though he knew she couldn’t see him. “Only a few weeks. Once we finish up here, we will be back for the wedding, and then I can help with the projects more frequently.”

The portal closed immediately after the last of the Elves were through, and Sapphire shrugged. Karl must be busy with whatever he was doing there.

But on the Neia Continent, Karl found himself surrounded by dozens of dragonkin warriors with furious expressions.

“We finally found you. Return the portal stones, and we might let you have a quick death.” The leader of the group demanded.

Karl laughed. “It won’t do you any good. I destroyed the stones on the other side. You’re never going home.”

The Dragonkin was about to retort when more portals opened, and five Totem Ranked Giants with four arms and massive bodies walked through.

“Well, look what we have here. A little spat between the Dragon Hunters and the Demons, is it? The boss doesn’t mind if you don’t like each other, you all end up in the same spot anyhow.” The Giant with the darkest complexion announced, then chuckled grimly.

The Dragonkin turned to face the Giants, while Karl tapped his chin, considering his next move.

“Before we start the fun part of this, I have a question. Which group is the one suppressing magic on the continent? It’s like wearing underwear a size too tight.

Very uncomfortable.” Karl joked.

The Dragonkin looked confused, but the Giants sneered.

“Did you think that we would just let the lesser beings use their silly tricks on us? We aren’t like you pathetic, short-lived species. We remember.” The Giant retorted.

“So, it’s the followers of the Titan Gods. That makes things a bit easier.”

That still left the question of what the dragonkin that the Giants had called the Dragon Hunters were doing here, and how long they had been operating on the continent.

There might have been more slipping through Matilda’s protective net than the Chaos Dragon was aware of.

Or, they might all be from Mortal worlds, and she simply wasn’t concerned about them.

More Giants came through behind the initial group, but they were all Monarchs and Overlords, not an immediate concern for Karl.

{Stay out of our way, and we won’t attack you, thief.} The leader of the Dragonkin whispered.

Karl nodded. {I don’t attack those who don’t attack me.}

It was a nice sentiment.

A blatant lie, but a nice sentiment.

The leader of the Giants equipped a two-handed maul, letting Karl know that they had some equivalent of an Inventory, or perhaps storage devices. If they weren’t from this world, they probably didn’t have System Classes, and Karl didn’t see any other signs that they did.

Then the Giant slammed the ground, and a wave of force raced toward Karl and the Dragonkin.

A stomp of Karl’s foot to activate [Gravity Slam] caused a collision halfway between them, and threw dirt up in the air, shading the battlefield as Hawk appeared high in the sky, and Cara snuck out of her space to join the fight.

She loved picking on big dumb Giants.

Karl transformed back into the Avatar of the World Dragon, and activated all his buffs so he could get the fight really started. The Giants began to curse the moment that he transformed, and the Totems all abandoned the attack on the Dragonkin to target him.

Karl called for his Golems.

First the Epic Guard, then Dire Bears, which duplicated to four. Then the Epic Golem, which brought up a system message that Karl didn’t have time to deal with as he was using [Void Blast] to parry skills from the Giants.

[Randomize] He thought.

{Epic Golem Selected} Myceloid King

Two towering Myceloids appeared in all their fungal glory, and immediately rained spores down on the battlefield as skills crashed into their bodies.

Cara laughed as she grabbed one of the spores to stuff up a Giant’s kilt.

[Damage Reduction doesn’t stop them from spreading spores.] The badger laughed.

[But you forgot that you’ve got the More Golems Spell from Dana.] She added.

Right, Greater Golem.

Karl called for the last Golems, and four Totem Ranked Lightning Cerro appeared, looking exactly like Thor had before he evolved into a Behemoth.

[YES! Brother Thor is back, baby!] Cara giggled.

That armoured head fringe was the perfect spot to hide from retaliation after she stuffed itching spores up the Giants’ kilts.

Karl laughed as a Giant roared in frustration at being touched inappropriately by the badger, then summoned the Spectral Knights.

The Giants wanted a fight. Now they had one.
