Evolving Silver Dragon

Chapter 526: 514 Heavenly Fire Advent_1
The Blood Fortress looked like a traditional military fortress from the outside, covered with thick blood-red armor.

At the moment, as if for some man-made reason, the blood-red armor was rapidly falling off right in front of Otto, crashing down below.

Each layer of the armor was quite large, and the Crimson Empress’s palace was directly underneath the Blood Fortress.

But apparently, the Blood Fortress didn’t take this into consideration, even this order came directly from the Crimson Empress herself, who resided in the palace.

The Empress coldly watched the scene as layers of armor fell from the Blood Fortress, crashing into the majestic and beautiful palace, creating deep craters.

Even if the palace had been luxurious before, it was clearly uninhabitable now unless it underwent intense repairs.

However, its master, the Crimson Empress, might not need to reside in the palace anymore.

It wasn’t that the Crimson Empress had taken the Blood Fortress as her new residence, but rather, she had merged herself into the Blood Fortress itself.

Yes, the Crimson Empress’s situation was now very similar to Moray’s, having become the core of the Blood Fortress.

Many of the things the Crimson Empress had done before were very hard to forgive, especially since the Mother of Evil Dragons held significant grudges towards her.

If it weren’t for the Spider Goddess and the God of War intervening, the Mother of Evil Dragons would have twisted the Crimson Empress into all sorts of strange shapes by now.

Because of the failure of Lima Fortress, the mood of the four gods had soured, and the Mother of Evil Dragons vented her anger on the Crimson Empress.

Although not enough to kill the poor creature, they would not let her off easy.

As a result, even if the Crimson Empress was very reluctant, she ultimately ended up in this situation.

Moreover, the floating city, second only to Stania, had been silent for half a year, but it was not just idly hovering above the imperial capital.

After the blood-red outer armor fell off, it revealed the dark interior and various military structures characteristic of Dore architecture.

There were many buildings with this heavy black style that were eerily similar to the Blackstone Floating City.

After all, Sofia, the chief designer of the Blackstone Floating City, was a half-elf with some Dore lineage.

From an aesthetic point of view, she had much in common with the Spider Goddess.

Just in terms of appearance alone, calling it the Blood Fortress seemed somewhat unfitting now.

Overall, it seemed that the Spider Goddess had put in a lot of effort into modifying the Blood Fortress.

In addition to the military buildings designed in the Dore style, most of the personnel guarding the Blood Fortress were Dore from the Dark Domain.

These soldiers were now fully armed and stationed at every corner of the Blood Fortress where they were needed.

Looking at the large number of Dore elves, Otto had a strange thought that even if the Dore were known as a matriarchal society where both men and women were soldiers,

the number of Dore here, plus those who were wiped out at the Lima Fortress before, probably meant the Spider Goddess had completely emptied the Dark Domain of its Dore population.

Besides the Dore, Otto also found a considerable number of dark dwarves and svirfneblin on the Blood Fortress.

It seemed that these creatures were likely slaves of the Dore, usually responsible for various menial labor.

While the dark dwarves and svirfneblin were busily making battle preparations under the whip of the Dore, roars of dragons could be heard coming from the inside of the Blood Fortress.

Before long, a large number of colorful evil dragons were seen circling above the Blood Fortress.

Seeing this unusually large number, Otto couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

It seemed that apart from those evil dragon leaders who didn’t pay much attention to the Mother of Evil Dragons, almost all the colorful evil dragons on the continent had been summoned by her.

Apart from these, Otto also discovered an exceptionally large statue standing at the center of the Blood Fortress.

Based on its appearance, it was likely that of the widely revered God of War in the empire.

One moment it was just a statue, but the next, the inanimate sculpture seemed to awaken, slowly walking towards the Blackstone Floating City.

Watching all this, Otto’s mouth twitched, and he had an inexplicable feeling of the earth slowly waking up…

Temporarily putting aside the bizarre thought of making soup from large bones, it could be seen as a very special way of advent.

With the movement of the God of War, a special blood aura surrounded the Blood Fortress.

As long as one was within the range of the blood aura, all their attributes were increased by a certain value.

So far, Otto had seen the handiwork of the Spider Goddess, the Mother of Evil Dragons, and the God of War.

Meanwhile, Otto continued to search for any sign of the Shadow Master.

This guy was like an old silver coin, who knew where he might be hiding, waiting for a chance to stab someone in the back?

Truth be told, these so-called deities were limited by various reasons and could not exert their full power in the Prime Material Plane.

However, since the avatars were the ones being consumed each time, they could always return after a while, which was quite annoying.

After searching for half a day without finding anything related to the Shadow Master, Otto decided not to bother with it.

Before the Blackstone Floating City and Blood Fortress collided head-on, Otto had already flown out on his own, heading straight for the Blood Fortress.

At this moment, Otto’s actions showed complete disregard for the Blood Fortress.

Frankly, he was not intimidated by a floating city that had been modified over half a year, a bunch of assorted dragons, and a limited group of colorful evil dragons.

The only thing that even slightly concerned him was the new avatar of the God of War, which had been a statue just moments before.

“Roar!”

With a deafening roar, a massive fan-shaped Flame Breath swept directly towards the Blood Fortress.

Faced with Otto’s sudden attack, the entire Blood Fortress was thrown into chaos.

But the Crimson Empress, who acted as the core of the fortress, had been prepared for this all along.

Just before the Flame Breath was about to hit the Blood Fortress, a dark purple protective barrier appeared above the fortress.

Although it was just a simple Flame Breath, its power was not something that an ordinary magical shield could resist, especially when it came from Otto.

Before long, to the horror of those down below, the magic shield was filled with numerous cracks.

If they were hit by such terrifying flames, even the ordinary Dore or dwarves would be turned to ashes in an instant.
