Chapter 1542: Chapter 1542: Molten Mountain Dragon

Before Li Yao could speak, a player used a world shrinker to enlarge their own size and then projected their image even larger. It was still tiny compared to the giant shadows of the leaders and Li Yao, but it was now noticeable to others.

"Chieftain, I had actually noticed this issue earlier and was about to report to you, but someone beat me to it. As a shaman, I can assuredly tell you that the Earth Element and Fire Element are not only abundant but also violently unstable to the extreme." This player was a warrior, who glanced at Li Yao indifferently while speaking.

Li Yao was not bothered at all. Seeing someone else speak up, he chose to remain silent, whereas the people from Starfire were furious but were stopped by Li Yao’s gaze, preventing them from causing a scene.

It was not just one player showcasing their ability to magnify their influence.

A human player from the Light Faction took out something resembling a crystal ball and, without waiting for the shaman to continue speaking, loudly said, "General, I have even more direct evidence. This is a special device, the Elemental Sensing Sphere, which can directly monitor the elemental status within tens of thousands of yards, allowing the generals to have a more intuitive grasp of the elemental conditions."

The player powered up the gnomish crystal sphere, which suddenly transformed into a huge illusory globe, filled with shimmering lights and converging elemental motes.

Various elements each occupied a region of their own, but three elements were particularly concentrated: Dark, Fire, and Earth. Fire and Earth were the most abundant and they were roiling incessantly, as if constantly squeezing the space of other elements, clearly growing stronger by the moment.

The leaders’ focus was indeed drawn to the huge light globe, and they all frowned as they looked at it, exchanging glances that clearly reflected the gravity of the situation in everyone’s eyes.

Blood Hoof Chieftain turned to the smiling Li Yao and asked,"General Liaoyuan, what exactly is going on?"

Before Li Yao could respond, the first shaman to speak hastily interjected, "My lords, in my view, this elemental uprising is even more violent than the Dark Elemental, which must mean there’s a spell or array more terrifying than the Dark Curtain."

The Mage who took out the crystal ball also said, "Yes, I believe it’s a trap set by Uldaman, waiting for us to fall into it, so I think we should approach this cautiously."

The players who managed to enlarge their own silhouettes one after another interjected, not giving Li Yao a chance to speak.

This was a race for the first kill, who the heck knows if this kind of analysis could boost ratings and points, whether it works out or not, the point was to deny Starfire the chance at all costs.

Of course, the members of Starfire were beyond angry; this was an opportunity that Li Yao had created, yet these shameless fellows were so blatantly trying to push Starfire aside. Whenever anyone from Starfire tried to speak up, they would loudly override with their own words, such behavior infuriating yet comically amusing to Starfire at the same time.

A few people even used their imagination to its fullest, each displaying their talents, making their analyses clean and coherent as if they were indeed factual.

"Hehehehe." Alice, having watched for a while, finally couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Generals, each of your subordinates is truly a ’talent.’ If I didn’t know what was going on, I would have thought it was all true myself."

The Archangel paused, then said, "So you mean to say, their analyses and conjectures are incorrect?"

"Yes, yes, yes, if you all think it’s correct, then let’s just say it is." Alice shook her head slightly, unable to hide a smile.

"Generals, don’t be fooled by her; it’s obvious that she’s saying this because we’ve guessed her conspiracy."

"Exactly, she must be in a panic because we’ve seen through her plot, saying these things on purpose so we doubt our own deductions."

"Generals, don’t be deceived by this enchantress."

Several people yelled vigorously, clearly desperate to contribute.

"Heh, how boring. A bunch of fools so damn proud of themselves. I gave you a hint and a clue because my plan is essentially complete. Whether you know about it or not, you can’t change the inevitable. Although I wield Dark Power, I prefer to crush my opponents with overwhelming presence, not with schemes and tricks. Your so-called conspiracy theories only show how narrow-minded and ignorant you are." Alice looked disdainful and ignored them, directing her gaze to Li Yao: "Liaoyuan, huh? You once disrupted my plans. Can you guess my purpose? If you can’t, then you’ll understand my power only when you’re in utter despair."

"Silence, all of you." The Archangel, seeing some players about to speak out, immediately reprimanded them, then turned to Li Yao: "Someone whom the Archangel values, share your thoughts."

Li Yao sighed and said, "Forgive my frankness, but the upcoming battle will be extremely difficult. With just us recruits, it’s impossible to overcome this city. Please summon your air forces and armies, and prepare for a tough fight. If I’m not mistaken, we will be facing a behemoth, much larger than the Dragon King—a progenitor dragon made of magma and Earth Element, partly elemental in nature. According to the magma-like blood I encountered in the laboratory, there are three kinds that match such blood, but only one that the Demon Marshal would keep as a trump card."

The complexion of the Archangel changed dramatically: "A dragon with blood like magma, the Magma Dragon, the Molten Behemoth, and, and the Magma Mountain Dragon... The Magma Mountain Dragon has been sealed for tens of thousands of years; how could it possibly appear? That’s impossible."

"Ridiculous, you’re just speculating wildly."

"Just to stand out, you’d deny us. You’re really trying hard."

"Captain Liaoyuan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t just say whatever comes to your mind."

Seeing the Archangel’s denial, the other players quickly agreed, mocking Li Yao.

"Shut up, all of you," roared the Human General, "rude creatures, when did it become your turn to clamor here? If I hear you spouting nonsense again, those from other factions I’m not concerned with, but anyone from the Light Faction immediately get out of here."

"We of the Dark Camp think the same," said the Blood Hoof Chieftain, his face grave. "What exactly is this Magma Mountain Dragon you’re talking about?"

The Archangel spoke: "The Magma Mountain Dragon is a forbidden creature that should not exist in this world, a special dragon breed created by the Seven Demons of Hell deep in a location called the Abyss of Original Sin, where countless tormented souls were used along with the Dragon Blood of the Dragon King and blood from numerous ones with the Dragon Bloodline. It took a century to absorb a tenth of the plane’s power. The Magma Mountain Dragon is many times larger than the Dragon King, like a moveable mountain, made of special Magic Rock and magma, forged constantly, growing sturdier as time passes."...
