King of Titans and Dragons
Chapter 147 - 147 142 Sweeping Through the Enemys Lair

Chapter 147: Chapter 142: Sweeping Through the Enemy’s Lair Chapter 147: Chapter 142: Sweeping Through the Enemy’s Lair Without making much noise, a gap was silently torn open in the light screen by Muria. Besides, this football-sized gap was slowly healing itself.

Muria did not break through the legendary magic array protecting the castle as he currently lacked the ability. Instead, he cunningly carved out a gap in the massive legendary array.

“Not enough!” After picking up the Void Star Gold which originally belonged to him from the crystal platform, Muria hesitated a little. Then, he took all the Void Star Gold that Dragon Mother Atreus had collected and placed here.

Next, his gaze turned to the crystal platforms holding other legendary metals, including Fine Gold, Mithril, Mountain Bronze, Skyfall Steel, God-breaking iron, Sunflame Gold, Thundering Purple Gold, Hurricane Green Gold, Vast Sea Blue Gold…

Dragon Mother Atreus’s treasure vault had collected almost every type of legendary metal, and the quantity was astonishing. He had no idea how many evil creatures she had robbed to accumulate such vast assets.

“Some of the legendary metals here probably came from my father and my maternal grandfather.” Muria stared at the brightly shining legendary metals of various colors, his eyes glittering with golden thunder and ejecting spirit light for several meters, which was utterly astonishing.

After collecting all Void Star Gold from the treasury, Muria’s blood began to boil, and his heart beat accelerated, making a loud sound like a thunder drum.

On his exposed skin, shining like a jade, the patterns of fine dragon scales appeared. His thunder-streaked eyes also silently turned into vertical pupils typical of dragons. It seemed as if dragon horns were about to sprout from the sides of his forehead.

Dragon’s greed! Regardless of good or evil!

Plunder all!

Take all!

Fetch all!

Vaguely, a voice echoed in Muria’s ear, constantly tempting him to break all the protective covers of the crystal platforms, and to “fetch” all the legendary metals.

Muria frowned, listening carefully to the deceptive voice that was akin to a devil whispering. After a few moments, Muria found that the voice was apparently his own, expressing his innermost desire.

Hence, Muria did not hesitate anymore and directly executed his thoughts.

He came to the crystal platform displaying Fine Gold, stretched out his hand, and a legendary defensive shield appeared. After pressing down, the light screen shattered.

Muria reached in and put all the Fine Gold into his storage ring.

Then, he approached the crystal platform showcasing Mithril. Extending his palm and pressing down, the light screen shattered again, and he took away all the Mithril as well… Mountain Bronze… Skyfall Steel… God-breaking Iron… Sunflame Gold…

One after another, the crystal platforms displaying legendary metals were destroyed by Muria. The seemingly gentle young man took away all the metals on the platforms.

“Vast Sea Blue Gold!” Muria stood in front of a crystal platform displaying this azure blue metal. A blue spirit light emanated from these metals, making one feel as if standing at the seashore, gazing at the limitless ocean. Muria could faintly hear the sound of the tides fluctuating.

“Forget it.” Muria, bathed in blue light from Vast Sea Blue Gold, felt a slight aversion and discomfort. Being a Fire Elemental True Dragon, golden dragons inherently resented everything related to the water element.

Muria bypassed the crystal platform displaying Vast Sea Blue Gold. In front of him was another platform showcasing a metal emanating earth-yellow spirit light — Vast Earth Yellow Gold.

“This metal doesn’t match my attributes. Such legendary metals with specific innate attributes are not suitable for me. Even in my hands, they wouldn’t exhibit much power.” Muria murmured, “Forget it. I’ll just take the three types of legendary metals compatible with my attributes. The rest are not necessary…”

“Hm!” Muria suddenly thought of something, stopped speaking, and broke the protection over the Vast Sea Blue Gold and Vast Earth Yellow Gold platforms. He only took a few pieces without taking everything. As he had said, these metals were not suitable for him.

However,

“It’s better to take some as backup, in case I find a use for them in the future.”

Muria muttered to himself.

Legendary metals can be divided into two major categories. The first includes Fine Gold, Mithril, etc., which are applicable to all professions and almost all creatures, and have a wide range of uses.

The second category includes Sunflame Gold and Thundering Purple Gold – the ones with inherent attributes. These are far more valuable to entities with matching attributes than the widely-used legendary metals, even if the trade-off ratio is two to one.

However, if the attributes do not match or even counteract each other, they would become like a dilemma—useless yet a pity to discard!

“Hm!” After fetching a few pieces of legendary metals incompatible with his attributes, Muria stopped. He looked around, most of the crystal platforms displaying legendary metals were now empty.

Only six platforms were left with Dawn Glow Gold, Eternal Night Dark Gold, Vast Earth Yellow Gold, Vast Sea Blue Gold, Silhouette Gold, and Ancient Spirit Gold – Six present legendary metals incompatible with, and even conflicting with Muria’s attributes.

Among these, Silhouette Gold wasn’t meant for living beings at all. It was a metal prepared for the undead.

However, Ancient Spirit Gold was quite unique. Born in places abundant in life, such as beneath World Tree’s roots, this metal was suitable for all living beings. For ordinary humans, sporting even a piece the size of a fingernail could prevent all diseases, extend longevity, and if they possessed more, it could even make their life span double.

However, for top beings like Muria, the only use of Ancient Spirit Gold was to accelerate his recovery when injured. Other effects were no longer effective for him.

“Although this metal is not compatible with my attributes, it does have great uses for me. I’ll just take all of it!” Muria broke the protective screen of the crystal platform displaying Ancient Spirit Gold, and took all the metals radiating with rich life energy.

“I’ve gathered the legendary metals that are useful for me.” Muria looked over the dozen empty crystal platforms that conspicuously stood in the treasure vault. He felt an inexplicable sense of guilt in his heart, as if he had overdone it.

But Muria quickly suppressed his guilt. After all, Dragon Mother Atreus started it first, and her “little”, “insignificant” metals shouldn’t mean much. After all, against Dragon Mother Atreus’s total wealth, these metals are most likely a mere fraction.

“I’ll take some more!” Muria cast his gaze on the other crystal platforms. On their surfaces, other legendary treasures were displayed, many of them looking quite peculiar.
