Chapter 100 and Chapter 30: Revenge
His castle! His beautiful castle!
As he flew high in the air, Golenich following him, Wankel's heart was filled with apprehension. Care for his beauty, hard-won lair, elite minions of the staff, and his magical treasures in the vault. It doesn't have to be in this order.
Thankfully, when he crossed the top of the hill, he found his castle unscathed, protected by a crimson barrier. Once protected from the dragon's wrath, now save the treasure.
He couldn't say the same thing about the rest of the mountain, though.
The explosion caused the entire volcano to collapse, and lava fell from the mountain and flowed into the nearby sea. The ground shimmered with green light and shards of molten power stones, and the air was filled with eye-itching dust. The weapon left a noticeable hole in the hill where it hit, and if it hit Mumulin, the hole would be large enough to cover the entire city.
Even if the weapon does not hit the target, it releases tons of toxic smoke in the atmosphere. "[Control the weather: clear skies]," Manlin Victor rode on Gorinich's back, engulfing Mu in a poisonous cloud

Harmlessly dispersed them before.
While his entourage dealt with the weather, Winkel dived into the water to get a closer look at the damage.
You're entering a [Chernobyl] realm. [Fire], [Nuclear], [Earth] and [Poison] attacks will be greatly intensified.
Non-[Undead], [Sorcery], [Alien], [Insect], [Elemental], and [Artificial] types will lose 10 maximum health per minute, unless they are protected by [Nuclear].
The vitality check was successful. [Irradiation] disease negation.
Once his magic finally stabilizes, he will have to use his [Feng Shui] to change the realm. However, the destructive power of the explosion left him speechless. This is not Brandon Moore's Wind Spear, nor is it Wota
of the powerful [Ragnarok]. To cause such damage, Van Kerr would need at least a minute of non-stop carpet bombardment.
The meteor did it in the blink of an eye.
"They have nuclear weapons," Manlin Victor whispered to himself on Gorinich, deeply frightened even when the knight Kia was behind his back. "Arrows of Light."
"They have missiles," Knight Kia added with a frown. "Do you know where they were launched from?"
"They use power stones to propel missiles," Manlin Victor said, pointing to debris scattered on the mountain. "Our spellcasters start tracking down the source of magic. At last. β
Of course, the cowardly fairies easily shot his castle without retribution. It won't be long, Wankel assured himself, not too long.
"Some ICBMs can hit targets more than 10,000 kilometers away," said Knight Kia, despite Vai

And didn't fully understand all this. "Why don't they just open a portal in Coo and drop the bomb?"
"Well, we've investedβ" Manlin Victor couldn't help but say as Winkel glanced at him, "I had the Agarthans and Happy Nation set up anti-hostile teleportation defenses in the cities of the V&V Empire and beyond. They block any attempts by unauthorized followers or V&V members to open the portal. We also set up air defense, but apparently the missiles moved too fast and they could not shoot them down. β
"Wise idea, Manlin Victor," Winkel congratulated his chief of staff, and then tried to figure out what was happening.
The intelligence check was successful.
"Their goal is me," Winkel realized, finding meaning in the chain of events. "But they missed."
"Maybe they have nuclear weapons, but they don't have the infrastructure that will allow them to hit targets with lethal precision," said Manlin Victor (Ma).

said. "They don't have GPS, maps, terrain knowledge......"
"Do you think that's why they want to scare us?" Knight Kia muttered. "Determine our location?"
"I believe they want to call His Majesty the King first, because they want him to die personally," explained friend Victor to his companions. "Then they tried to target me because I was always on Winkel's side. When they couldn't find my place, they tried to find you, Kia, and when they failed, they lost patience and asked Mu

The bomb was fired at a rough location. β
"Why use Power Stones?" If they have nuclear weapons, they should have a whole set of rocket equipment. β
"Well, either they have ICBMs, but don't know how to use them, so they swap the warhead for a replica of the Moorish Wind Spear, or ......"
βO
?β
"Or they are trying to create their own nuclear weapons, and this is just a test."
The paladin was silent for a moment before speaking. "I'm going to Gardermani to ask for an invasion fleet to remove my old men at once. If they develop a nuclear arsenal, the entire European continent will be in danger. No country was spared from the bombing. β
"The shield of the castle successfully protected it from the explosion," said Manlin Victor. "Maybe he can design a city-wide version?"
"Yes, go find him." Winkel finally spoke, though he was reluctant to say it.
His words shocked even his most loyal friends. "Your Majesty, do you agree to ask Fulpon for help?"
"I hate it as much as you do, Manlin Victor," Winkel replied solemnly. "But if he can protect my subjects from these arrows, then the safety of my minions will be a priority."
His decision made his most capable subordinates understand this.
This is an extraordinary time.
This is a war, and anything can happen.
Even summon the Forsaken.
After the disaster, Mu
mu

of the inhabitants were shaken greatly. Winkel decided to appease them with a speech, but first, he summoned all his elite retinue and allies to his treasure. His war council came together to discuss the threat, inviting guests like Glendrack to offer their opinions.
"I now understand why you're calling a conclave, young Vicker." The elder dragon said with a frown. He is rarely seen being disturbed by anything. "I've never seen such a powerful destructive power beyond the flight of maggots, and when I'm awake, the gods haven't come to this world created by dragons."
"So will you support my cause?" Vai

Asked. Many dragons respect G
a

Ake, who is considered to be a wise elder and a pioneer in hunting princesses.
"I want to." G

Ake nodded. "You can also count on me to support you in the coming war, young king."
"We can't wait for the conclave." "We have to attack Pryden now."
"The sooner we land on the shores of Praitan, the better." Marbro the dwarf agreed. "Fairies aren't stupid enough to blow up their homes."
Delicious McPhee cleared her throat, a little skeptical. "I'm struggling. On the one hand, our assets are fully exposed to the risk of financial collapse, but on the other hand, if we attack the coast without additional support, I expect the market to collapse. β
"I'm going to call a class reunion," Isabel Moore suggested, standing next to a heavily armed Manling Victor. "I'm sure they'll share the fruits of their victory."
"Yes, most of our class wants to rule the world, not burn it," said Manlin Victor (Ma).
li

said. "Jaja and Gobrina have agreed to help."
"It's reassuring." Knight Kia replied with a frown. "But I stand by what I say. We need Gademani, I can mobilize them. If we attack from multiple fronts, the enemy will not be able to deploy weapons and blow us up into the sky. β
"It's just an assumption," Alison retorted, who wasn't tasty. "We need a more reliable way to deal with bombs."
The intelligence check was successful.
"There are two of us," Winkel said, drawing their attention to him, "Manlin Victor can change the weather and shoot their arrows away, and I can shoot them down with my breath." β
"That's fine, but Your Majesty, the Gollumers won't be protected in your absence."
"The Minions, who cannot fight or contribute to the war, will be evacuated to the moon," Winkel announced. "That place is so dark that even the fairies dare not attack it."
"That's right, even missiles can't hit it," said the unpalatable Allison, "or at least I hope they can't?"
Vai

Announced, now is the general pattern: "The (Chernobyl) venue will be reserved for fashionable early dragon guests so that they can see the newfound threat of the fairies with their own eyes." "Until the secret meeting is over, I wipe it out with my [Feng Shui] and this area will be condemned. Ma
li
g Victo
It will be ensured that the smoke does not pollute the area. β
"We'll do it." Manling nodded. "Your Majesty, if the conclave goes smoothly, how many dragons can we help?"
"It's a tenth," Grandrack replied, much to everyone's bewilderment.
"Servant Victor, we dragons are ravenous creatures," Winkel explained. "We need a lot of cows and fat to be in top shape. Unfortunately, the world is too small to accommodate all of us, so our genius came up with a solution. We hibernate for centuries, often millennia. β
"I see." Juris nodded. "In this way, the prey population can be restored to sustainable levels. But considering His Majesty's appetite......"
"At a given time, only one in ten people is active," Winkel confirmed. "The conclave is when the awake dragons come together to vote on the other nine-tenths of the sleeping to awaken for the purpose of war. We sing the song of the ancient maggots, and our entire race will move to destroy the enemy. β
"Gold-eating insects, for example," Grandrack added. "May their wickedness never again defile Ofremond."
"But if only 1 in 10 dragons are active, that means at least ......," Manlin Victor tried to calculate the numbers. Tens of thousands?"
"Enough to wipe Prytan off the map." Winkel confirmed. "Is it an arrow of light?"
The rest of the discussion focused on protecting Mu

methodically, evacuating civilians before an attack takes place; Either go to the cursed moon or, as Marbro proposes, to the underground kingdom of Agarthan. For several months, Winkel's army had been preparing for the offensive, ready for any situation.
They will not let the fairies win this war, neither on the ground nor in their hearts.
Finally, Winkel ordered his fleet of minions to prepare for the landing in the coming days. Knight Kia will return to Gardmani to summon her race's help, while the V&V Empire will gather all its allies to join the invading forces.
"Anything else?" Winkel asked, he was ready to dissolve his committee before pacifying his people.
"Yes," Manlene Victor said. "King Wotan is still waiting outside. I think he's made his decision. β
About time.
Winkel teleported out of the castle with his minions and found Dragon Bane on one of the castle's towers, with a Valkyrie on his shoulder. The farmer looked contemptuously at the ruined hillside.
"An all-powerful arrow that can hit a target from a distance without the user being counterattacked," Wotan shook his head. "This is a cowardly weapon, not for a warrior."
"In my world, it's used as a deterrent," said Manlin Victor
li
g Victo
said. "It's a weapon of destruction, and its threat promotes peace."
"Apparently Odeus doesn't deal with threats," the former lord said.
"Does that bother you, Dragonbane?" Vai
queu
Guess. "My advice is still valid."
His former opponent crossed his arms thoughtfully. "I can't send you to the Mer family's stronghold in Pleidan unless my people throw all their power on you." "But there is a place where I can fulfill my vows."
Winkel, like his chief of staff, did not move.
"The Mel family has a door to the world you call 'Earth,'" King Wotan explained. "When Mag Mayer had not yet been exiled for creating this system, they used it to capture slaves and slaves. Decades ago, his daughter retrieved it. I can take you there and lure the fairy queen into a fight. β
"Where's the door?" Victor immediately asked.
"In the dark forest, in a place between the Winter Kingdom and this tsarist state. I can open an elf ring for it. Later......" The former lord shook his head. "I won't take up arms against my kind, but if you keep your promise and only take revenge on the Mel family, I won't stop you either."
"Your Majesty, we need to condemn this door before they come up with more weapons," Manlin Victor said to his dragon master.
"This is the gateway to your home planet, minion," Vai
queu
Pointed. "Maybe the only one. Do you really want to close it forever?"
"My home is right next to you." His friend replied, warming the dragon's heart. "My family may have moved away by now. Knowing that Odeus couldn't threaten them, I could sleep better. β
"As long as she lives, the gates can be rebuilt." King Wolf Tan pointed out coldly.
"You're doing you a disservice."
"When?" Vai
queu
Make a screeching sound.
"The sooner I end this pointless fight, the better."
"You can't stay neutral forever," Winkel replied, knowing something about his new nemesis. The evil Odius had only slaves and enemies. If you don't serve her, she will kill you. β
The charm test was successful.
Despite hearing the news, King Wotan remained expressionless. "Maybe she'll try," he admitted. "But she's still my family."
Species. Winkel didn't know how to feel about it.
"Manling Victor, get ready." Long said. "As soon as I'm done, we'll teleport to this door."
The fairies have been attacking his kingdom for too long.
It's time to treat others the way they would.
