Book 6: Chapter 351: The Clash Of Evil Between The Oasis Draconians And The Abyss Insects

Inside the desert oasis at the center of Thunder Valley, within the hidden regions of the Forest of the Wild, lived a group of special Draconians. They revered the Thunder Dragon and would kill any invader who barged into the place that they considered their sacred ground without hesitation. Bella and Isaman had been attacked as they had accidentally wandered into that sacred ground. However, they were only attacked by a small group. It seemed that the Draconians had been drastically weakened by the curse.

Bella felt that the combat abilities of the Draconians needed to be re-evaluated. Each Draconian was supposed to be worth 30 points, which felt a little excessive as this was equivalent to hunting and killing an A-Grade demonic beast. She found shreds of cloth that appeared to be part of an armband with the Eye of Darkness’ insignia on it. Within the Olsylvia Academy, Chairman Sally Roy was the only one who wore such an armband. 

“Bella, I feel that there’s something not quite right with the demonic beings in this region. I think we should…”

“Don’t worry, their attacks are useless against me. Otherwise, I’ll just summon… summon more demonic beings to back us up.” 

Bella was not exaggerating at all. As being in this desert oasis did not limit her to the lightning element, she was not restricted from any demonic being she wished to summon. Bella and President Isaman walked along a path that was lined with bits of dismembered corpses and they soon arrived at the remnants of a battlefield. This place was covered in corpses of dead Draconians. However, the other party was nowhere to be seen. After a round of attempts at dark summoning, Bella sullenly resigned herself to the fact that the bodies of the Draconians could not be resurrected this way at all. Unlike the Skeletons, the Draconians’ bones could not be summoned into battle in the same manner.

Since these corpses could not be summoned as Skeletons, they were basically useless trash. Bella kept her eyes on the ground as she tried to differentiate between the various bloodstains. Draconian blood was vastly different from Human blood. The former was green, while the Humans’ blood was red. Unexpectedly, other than the Draconians’ blood, there were fresh traces of Human blood on the field as well. If the pair were to follow the bloody tracks, they should be able to find the Humans who had been attacked by the Draconians.

Bella tipped out a few insect eggs from her storage ring. These were demonic beings that had contractual agreements with her and they were Abyss Insect eggs that she had obtained from one of the Abyss Creators, the Insect Empress Vicky Hill. As long as there were corpses, the Abyss Insects would develop as a parasite. As Vicky Hill had entered into a mistress-slave contract with her, Bella had the aura of the Insect Empress. In fact, the aura would reflect that she was superior to Empress Vicky Hill. This meant that she would be able to command any Abyss Insects, including Insect Empresses, without any fear of being attacked. 

“Bella… this is… these insects are so… so scary… nothing will go wrong, right?”

“Don’t worry. They can’t enter the Humans’ area from here. Furthermore, they will listen to my every command.”

President Isaman watched in horror as the insect eggs seemed to come alive and split open to reveal countless maggot-like larvae that began to burrow into the Draconian corpses. Soon enough, they began to multiply and grow extremely quickly. Isaman grabbed Bella’s right arm and held on tightly. Somehow, Isaman no longer felt any enmity against the other girl. However, she was still unwilling to admit defeat. If not for the bet, Isaman would have already become friends with Bella, just like Kriss and the others. 

These particular parasitic insect demonic beings were mutated Abyss Crypt Insects. These giant cockroaches reproduced at a startling rate and were the optimal choice for invasive battles. It did not take long before they absorbed all the nutrients from the Draconian corpses. Each corpse was enough to breed at least three Abyss Crypt Insects. As long as there were enough Abyss Crypt Insects, even the strongest of the Draconians would not be able to fend off an attack by such a large swarm.

“My respects, Your Majesty. Our patience has been rewarded. We finally have the opportunity to serve our Empress.”

“Mmm… you can speak the Human language. Well… alright, I have a mission for you.”

The Abyss Crypt Insects that emerged from the Draconians’ corpses were of a much higher level than the ones Bella had encountered previously. They also had a pair of wings on their backs that enabled them to fly. Although they still looked like super cockroaches, these new Abyss Crypt Insects definitely looked much sturdier. Furthermore, as they could speak the Human language, they could communicate with her and Bella no longer found them disgusting. 

After gathering hundreds of Abyss Cockroaches, Bella encountered another group of Draconians. This group was much better equipped than the previous one. Other than blowguns, these Draconians were wearing dark blue metal armor. The other group was merely made up of regular hunters. This group was definitely part of the military. The Abyss Crypt Insects scattered in every direction and laid in ambush within the bushes on both sides, ready to attack the oncoming Draconians. By nature, the Abyss Insects were brutal and fearless. In fact, they were one of the few types of Abyss Demonic Beings that would not hesitate to kill the other party, even if it was a Demon God. Since they did not fear Demon Gods or Evil Gods, these Draconians were nothing to them. In their eyes, things were only separated into two categories – allies and food.

Bella had purposely erased Human females from the Abyss Crypt Insects’ list of targets. This way, they would not harm any of the girls who were hunting within the Thunder Valley, no matter the circumstances. Bella and President Isaman moved further away to hide. Isaman’s palms were drenched in sweat. This was the first time she was fighting alongside Abyss Insects as an ally. Moreover, these Abyss Insects looked so frightening and it was perfectly normal to feel a little weirded out. 

This group of Draconians seemed to be in the middle of transporting something. Bella took a closer look and got so furious that she almost jumped out of the bushes to attack them. Fortunately, Isaman noticed Bella’s anger rise. After a moment of hesitation, she pulled Bella’s right hand and pressed it to her chest. Bella’s anger temporarily dissipated as she felt the astonishing bounce of Isaman’s chest through the extremely thin material of her bikini swimsuit. 

The Draconians were carrying a beautiful naked young lady in their midst. The girl had long crimson hair and her voluptuous body was smoking hot. Bella immediately recognized her as Miss Veronica from the Blood Skulls. Her arms and legs were tied to a single pole as she hung upside down from it. The Draconians seemed to be parading her publicly as though they were carrying a prized pig on a pole. 

What made Bella even more furious was the fact that Veronica had been severely injured. There were streaks of blood all over her body. Even her beautiful face was covered in blood and there was no way of knowing if she was dead or alive. Although Bella had some enmity with the Blood Skull Organization, she did not feel this way towards Miss Veronica. Since Veronica had fallen into this poor state, her partner, Chairman Sally Roy, was most likely in a similar state as well. This meant that Bella needed to move quickly. 

The Draconians carefully scanned their surroundings, on high alert. They had gone through so much trouble to capture their tributes to the Thunder Dragon, and nothing must go wrong. As they approached the corpses, the Abyss Crypt Insects that had been lying in wait immediately pounced on them and the Draconian warriors fell to the ground. The super cockroaches opened their mouths and extended a terrifying set of feelers that pierced every crevice on the Draconian warriors’ face. The Draconians had never experienced such an unconventional attack like this before and dozens of Draconians had been forced to the ground as they were attacked by the parasites. 

Taking advantage of the chaos, Bella charged out of the bushes. The few Draconians that were carrying Veronica had already been attacked by the Abyss Crypt Insects and had thrown her aside in an attempt to escape. Bella swiftly used her dagger to cut off the ropes binding Veronica’s hands and legs before carrying her away. She chose not to look at the ongoing battle behind her. With the Abyss Crypt Insects’ terrifying offensive tactics, they would soon gain the upper hand and it would only be a matter of time before the group of Draconians were exterminated. 

“That hurt like hell. You monsters, I’m going to kill… Mmm, you’re… Bella?”

“Miss Veronica, I’m begging you, stop shouting. You’ll attract the attention of the Draconians… and those insect demonic beings.”

“I apologize, I was wrong. You… be a little gentler! That bunch of goddamned demonic beings hit extremely hard.”

Veronica, who had roused from the pain, gave up her pointless struggling after she took a proper look at Bella’s face. Her entire body was covered in wounds. Bella carried her to a stream and carefully began to clean the wounds all over Veronica’s body. If she had never seen Bella’s aggressive side, Isaman might have fallen for Bella’s gentler side. That demoness had an almost obsessive taste for beautiful girls. 

“Bella… go save Chairman Sally Roy as quickly as you can. We got separated. To cover my retreat, she remained behind alone to deal with the monster army. If I had known this would happen, I never would have entered the Thunder Valley!”

“Alright, my dear young miss. Of course I will. Now, just lie here obediently, do not move.”

“Alright, wait… my mouth isn’t injured… wuu…”

Bella took a few rolls of white bandages and wrapped them around Veronica in a mummy-like fashion. While Veronica was not paying attention, she had been wrapped in bandages like a beautiful mummy. Her arms were crossed in front of her chest while her feet were stretched out in parallel. Veronica’s body was soon bound tightly. Looking at the serious look on Bella’s face, Veronica did not know if she was saving or abducting her. Her mouth had been gagged and she could only stare at Bella with questioning eyes. 

“Everything will be fine, Miss Veronica. Don’t be nervous. I’m not from the Eye of Darkness. Also, outside this oasis, the broadcasts are still ongoing! If they were to capture footage of you in your current state, the Blood Skull’s reputation would definitely take a hit. In a moment, I will disguise you as an ancient corpse to transport you out. This way, no one will know that you were injured. Nod your head if you agree, say something to refuse if you do not.”

Veronica’s eyes were filled with shame. This girl was downright despicable! In fact, Bella was worse than she was. Since she was gagged, there was no way she was able to refuse! Left without a choice, Veronica nodded and allowed Bella to cover her eyes as well. Bella planned to use the same method she had used to transport the First Generation Radiant Pope Goldsmith and the Fifth Generation Radiant Pope Roxanne. Veronica would be wrapped up like a mummy and brought back. Fortunately, she still had the old replicas of the pharaohs’ coffins which could be put to good use now. 

“Isaman, is it really necessary for you to look at me with so much suspicion? I truly wish to help Miss Veronica.”

Once she was done stuffing cotton into Veronica’s ears, Bella turned and immediately saw that President Isaman was staring at her with a suspicious look in her eye. She hastily began to explain her actions. Veronica was still wounded, and she would not do anything to violate a pretty girl who had yet to recover from her injuries. Even if she was interested in Veronica, she would not do it right now. 

“Bella… you do not have to explain anything to me. Junior Veronica is the young mistress of the Blood Skulls, one of the four evil organizations. To be honest, the young mistresses of these organizations have extremely high net worths. If you were to kidnap one of them and sell them to the opposing organization, you’d most likely be rewarded handsomely!”

“Isaman, you’re mistaken. I’m not someone who is greedy for money. None of those riches or treasures could match up to any of you…”

Bella and the others finally located Chairman Sally Roy who was currently on a small grassland. Although she was currently in a rather pathetic state, she was not completely naked. However, from the battle, most of her clothes had been torn to shreds, leaving a few small strips of cloth on her body. Large patches of creamy white skin were revealed and it was no different from being naked. 

Bella noticed many heart wrenching wounds on Sally Roy’s body which appeared as though they had been there for a long time. Compared to Veronica, she was the true mafia young mistress. Those wounds that spread across her back were practically like special marks of honor. A large group of Draconian warriors lay dead near Sally Roy. They looked like they had died from a curse as their corpses were extremely shriveled. Judging by the look of the corpses, they must have been using one of the forbidden magical curses – the “Withering Death”. This was an extremely evil curse where the individual casting the curse would have to use their life in exchange for their opponent’s instant death.

Sally Roy already had one knee on the ground as she held onto Veronica’s crimson sword, which was stabbed into the ground. Earlier on, Bella had taken a look at Veronica and Sally Roy’s scores. Before Bella had arrived as reinforcement, these two mafia female heroes had killed more than one hundred Draconian warriors and their total accumulated points put them in the top four amongst the girls. The other two on the scoreboard were also female heroes from the mafia – the Death Wizard Kleina of the Skeleton Tower and Inie, the Shadow Warrior, from the Horrorshow Group.

Due to the unique circumstances surrounding the central oasis, the points accumulated those four young mistresses had not been updated simultaneously. Otherwise, it was highly likely that there would be changes on the scoreboard outside. Kleina, who had the lowest points among the four, had twice as many points as Princess Kriss, who currently held the first spot among the female students outside the oasis. 

An Avian, dressed like a psychic, was standing in front of Chairman Sally Roy. That thing seemed to be able to speak in the Human language. However, it was extremely ugly. It had a bird’s head perched atop its shoulders and it was a horrifying sight. It had a pair of wings on its back, which meant that it might have been a demonic being that used to be some sort of bird.

“The four of you have hidden from us for a day. I’m impressed. Unfortunately, you will never be able to defeat my lord, the Thunder Dragon. Now, be good and come with me as tribute!”

“You monster… Bella, what are you doing here!”

“You’re trying to trick me again, I will not fall… my… hand…”

Once Sally Roy caught sight of Bella, she heaved a sigh of relief. That Avian demonic being clearly did not believe that more reinforcements would arrive and raised its lightning scepter with a look of confusion. Just as it was about to knock out Chairman Sally Roy to take her away, Bella caught hold of its arms and pulled with all her might. This immediately broke both its arms.

As the Avian was magical, it was useless against a close quarters attack from someone of the combat profession. Once its arms were rendered invalid, Bella picked up the lightning scepter and used the sharp end to pierce through the demonic being’s head in a single smooth motion. Once the demonic being was dead, Isaman then carried Miss Veronica, who was wrapped up like a mummy, over to them. 

“I’m sorry, Bella, you had to see… this is!”

“Senior Sally Roy, are these scars the reason why you refuse to wear a female dress? You should have said something! I have a way to heal those old scars.”

“I’ve already used the “Withering Death”. My life force is…”

“I have my ways. Just relax. Be good!”

Bella walked up to Sally Roy, picked her up, and walked with President Isaman to find a safe place for them. It was not a problem even if Sally Roy had used the “Withering Death”. Life force could simply be absorbed from other demonic beasts. Although Humans could not use any magic that could absorb their opponent’s life force, entities such as the high level demons and Demon Kings had no problem using such evil and forbidden magic. 

The four mafia young mistresses had avoided the main female contingent the moment they arrived at the Forest of the Wild. They followed the map and found the entrance to the Thunder Valley. Then, they used the immense power of the crimson sword in Veronica’s hand that had been infused with Bella’s Demon King Blessing to break through the thunder protective barrier surrounding the central oasis. Once they got through the barrier, they finally entered this Human forbidden ground. 

While Bella and the others had been engaging in battle with the Dark Goblins by the nameless lake, Sally Roy and the others were attacked by the Draconians. The four of them had been fighting with thousands of Draconians for an entire day. During that time, they had killed hundreds of Draconians and were successfully maintaining their killing streak until Sally Roy had been captured. It was a miracle that the four of them had managed to hold on for an entire day in a wild battle without any reinforcements. This meant that the Draconians would have hated them and had likely planned to capture them alive and torture them slowly as tribute. 

“Senior Sally Roy, you… the four of you are insane. To take on…”

“Bella, could you please inform the other girls to head here as reinforcements. Kleina and Inie had been captured and brought to the Thunder Dragon’s altar. Please… I’m so tired…”

“Got it, I will do it…”

Once she had given Bella her instructions, Sally Roy passed out in exhaustion. She had fought for an entire day and was quite tired. While Bella and Isaman were busy bandaging Sally Roy’s wounds, they heard a loud sound in the sky. Bella looked up and saw a giant flying dragon soaring through the clouds. That dragon was much larger than any other giant dragons that she had ever seen. She guessed that it was the overlord of the Thunder Valley – the Thunder Dragon. 

The Thunder Dragon was covered in blue scales. Unlike the Ice Dragons, its scales buzzed with electrical energy. It looked like the standard western dragon and it had a horn in the center of its head, just like the Thunder Lizard. The Thunder Dragon was on its way to its altar to enjoy the amazing tributes and offerings from the Draconians. However, this time, it’s journey would not be a peaceful one. 

Without Bella’s instructions, the Abyss Crypt Insects battling in the central oasis had swiftly evolved and mutated. When the Thunder Dragon flew by, dozens of giant Abyss Insects charged towards it. There were all sorts of flying insects that carried lethal venoms. The Thunder Dragon had not even reached its destination before it was stalled in the sky. 

Bella and the others took this time to rush towards the Thunder Altar. They planned to arrive there before the Thunder Dragon did so that they could rescue Kleina and Inie, who had been taken as tribute.
