Chapter 472: 460 Shock and Despair_1
Otto was rapidly flying towards Black Rye City, only setting out after sending the Barbarians and Black Iron Dwarves to aid Gaz and the others.
The reason for setting out was simple; a spy that was previously placed in the Western Empire by the Land of the Soaring Dragon had suddenly relayed critical information.
The content of this information was that the Imperial Guardian had suddenly appeared, and both the Eastern and Western Empires had temporarily ceased fighting.
Otto had long heard of this Imperial Guardian.
One of the main reasons why he had turned a blind eye to the members of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce was for fear of some mishap befalling a certain white-haired short-haired girl.
After all, he had heard that like a certain Brass Dragon, the Guardian was also a senior daughter lover.
Also, at that time, his strength and influence were very limited, and he was unwilling to provoke the renowned big shot of the entire continent.
Once, he had asked Konoheim about who would be stronger between him and Dudley.
About this question, Brass first pondered and then gave an ambivalent answer.
If the two of them were to fight against each other, who could ultimately win would mainly depend on who could take control of the home field advantage or the preemptive advantage.
When it came to this topic, Konoheim had said a lot and gave different answers based on various situations.
But if Otto were to summarize it himself, it would be very simple.
If Konoheim could apply buffs to him in advance, then he would be the winner; otherwise, it would be a different outcome.
It was worth mentioning that Otto had now returned to his Silver Dragon form.
Although some people already knew the fact that the Silver Dragon and Black Dragon Otto were the same dragon, he still wanted to keep this secret as much as possible.
Moreover, only in the Silver Dragon state could he truly be considered his true self, and it would be more comfortable for him to appear in this form.
The Dawn Garden was the first to sense Otto’s arrival, but as he swiftly approached Black Rye City, Dudley noticed him as well.
Soon, almost everyone knew of Otto’s presence.
His size was truly too large; a dark shadow could be seen from afar rapidly approaching.
Otto’s flying speed was very fast, and it didn’t take long for everyone around Black Rye City to look up at the sky in surprise.
A huge and terrifying silver dragon had already settled at the edge of the Dawn Garden, and its massive wings could almost cover the entire sky when spread out.
The impact that such a terrifying more-than-fifty-meter-long silver dragon brought to everybody was not inferior to that of a Floating City.
Meanwhile, the various factions below reacted differently to Otto’s sudden visit.
The people of the Western Empire had never seen Otto, so their reactions to the appearance of a Silver Dragon were mostly puzzlement and astonishment.
Gaz and the Barbarians, on the other hand, were loyal servants of Otto, and after their initial surprise, they erupted in joyous cheers upon seeing him.
Although most of the people in the Western Empire were seeing Otto for the first time, they could guess at his identity after hearing these unusual cheers.
However, there was no despair on their faces, because in their hearts, even a dragon of this size could not possibly be Dudley’s opponent.
After all, this Imperial Guardian had a terrifying record of once cleaving a Red Dragon in half with a single sword.
At this moment, the Guardian of the Empire stood solemnly in the air.
His hands held his sword, and as he looked at Otto, his palms trembled slightly, and beads of sweat slid down from his forehead, the previous nonchalance and ease nowhere to be found.
“Gulp…”
Dudley swallowed hard, his entire body trembling.
The cause of it all was the Silver Dragon hovering nearby, who hadn’t even done anything yet.
In fact, compared to the ordinary people of the Western Empire, Dudley’s psychological pressure was even greater at this moment.
To the ordinary people of the Western Empire, Otto was just an ordinary Silver Dragon with an overly large body.
But Dudley could see many things that they couldn’t. Sometimes, being too strong and having too broad of a perspective was not a good thing.
Dudley had long been at the peak of this continent, and there were only a handful of beings on this land that could pose a threat to him.
However, unfortunately, in a certain sense, Otto has now transcended this continent and has become a state that the Master of Magic had once longed for.
“This… this is impossible!”
Dudley looked at Otto in horror, and the terrifying power unconsciously emanating from him caused his entire soul to tremble incessantly.
Elise, situated in the Dawn Garden, first looked at the motionless two sides with some confusion and then instructed the personal guards to control the Dawn Garden to move as far away from these two big shots as possible.
Who knows if these two would suddenly start fighting. The garden’s plants were already heavily affected by the battle.
If they continued to participate in this high-ranking battle in this state, the losses would be unacceptable.
As the Dawn Garden retreated to a safe position, Otto’s gaze on Dudley became more dangerous.
“Quite interesting, the Guardian of the Empire, huh…”
Otto looked at Dudley with a deep meaning, and at the same time in front of him, he slowly absorbed the surrounding air.
As a large amount of air entered Otto’s body, a bright blue light shone out from his chest.
This blue light intertwined with the shining silver scales, creating a bizarre image.
Blue crystal dust seemed to pass through Otto’s scales, floating near his glowing chest.
Seeing all this, Dudley’s spirit seemed on the verge of collapse.
“Impossible! This power should not exist in this world!”
He looked distorted, screaming in disbelief.
Quietly watching him, Otto found it a bit amusing, for the source of this power came from the Master of Magic himself.
Dudley and he were technically in the same camp, but Dudley was completely unaware of all this.
It seemed that the so-called Guardian of the Empire was nothing more than this.
Otto had no intention of answering Dudley. His eyes were cold, and the force of his breath was rapidly increasing, with a violent blue light gathering in his mouth.
The Truth’s breath had reached its limit, and even the space around Otto’s mouth trembled.
Perhaps feeling that it was not enough, under Dudley’s almost despairing gaze, Otto’s shoulders sprouted two vicious dragon heads, one front and one back.
In their mouths, the terrifying blue energy was also rapidly swirling, intertwined with thunderbolts and flames.
