BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66 The Red Dragon Screamed Again
Some already had the thought of desertion but after remembering Keith\'s threat, they decided to fight to the death with the red dragon.
They also found out that Keith\'s words made some sense. Even if they survived and was labeled as a criminal, they would still inevitably lose their life since the red dragon wasn\'t dead yet. It would only be a matter of time before the red dragon reach their hiding spot.
In other words, they were the hope of humanity. If they failed to defeat the red dragon, then the red dragon could easily dominate the world since most of the powerhouses in the world had participated in the battlefield.
On the rooftop, Keith and Sherry had observed the current situation and they knew that the awakened humans didn\'t have much hope of defeating the red dragon.
"Sigh, even 10 SSS-rank warriors and mages can\'t defeat a single X-rank dragon. If it was just an X-rank monster, then it will still be doable. But as the strongest existence at the top of the food chain, the dragon race could even pose a threat to awakened humans above their rank."
Keith shook his head after commenting about the awakened human\'s grim situation.
Even he didn\'t have the confidence that he could defeat the red dragon. Unless he used his First Order skill, then it was impossible for him to defeat the red dragon.
The only ones that could defeat the red dragon easily were the XX-rank cultivators as well as Lingluan Toufa. As an XXX-rank cultivator, Lingluan Toufa could easily defeat the red dragon but too bad he could no longer be used since he had been killed due to his disobedience.
All of the XX-rank cultivators were also killed by Keith when they didn\'t meet his criteria of "good cultivators". In other words, he could only pin his hope that Sherry could defeat the X-rank red dragon.
If Sherry wasn\'t enough, then Keith would resort to requesting the remaining X-rank cultivators to come out of seclusion and deal with the red dragon.
And if those cultivators still couldn\'t defeat the red dragon, then Keith would agree to Sherry\'s plan of escaping to another world.
\'Why do I feel like that Sherry and my plan are quite similar to what has happened to the demon god part-timer?\'
\'Oh? Interesting. So the demon god part-timer sought asylum into this world.\'
\'I have to say, my Ultimate Instinct skill is quite useful when obtaining information that I am ignorant of.\'
While Keith mused at the fact that the demon god part-timer had pathetically fled to planet Earth, he shifted his attention back to the important matter at hand.
"Sherry, can you defeat that red dragon? If not, we can go with your plan."
After Keith asked Sherry, he immediately received Sherry\'s response.
"I should be able to defeat the red dragon. I am currently at the peak of X-rank and with my space manipulation, I am confident that even if I can\'t defeat the red dragon, harming it should be possible."
"But don\'t worry. I will reserve enough mana to teleport both of us to another world. I only need 20% of my mana to perform world travel so if I can\'t defeat the red dragon after expending 80% of my mana, then I will teleport back here and the two of us will escape."
Keith nodded and agreed with Sherry.
\'The worst that could happen after Sherry and I arrived in a foreign world is meeting hostile creatures. And that\'s why I won\'t interfere in this battle so I can save up enough strength to protect myself and Sherry.\'
Keith was well aware that after Sherry teleported both of them into another world, all of Sherry\'s mana reserves would be depleted. At that time, only he could protect Sherry so Keith didn\'t want to expend his mana in the battle against the red dragon.
After receiving Keith\'s approval, Sherry teleported near the face of the red dragon.
Increasing the weight of her right fist using space magic, Sherry punched her right fist towards the right eye of the red dragon, releasing the pent-up energy on her punch.
When Sherry\'s fist came into contact with the red dragon\'s right eye, its right eye exploded like a watermelon being whacked by a baseball bat.
"Graaaah!!!"
Eye matter and blood splattered and sullied Sherry\'s clothes, hair, and face but she didn\'t care. She was contented when she heard the red dragon\'s scream.
Out of instinct, the red dragon swiped its right claw towards Sherry but before the red dragon\'s claw could reach a meter near Sherry, she teleported away from it.
After her successful evasion, Sherry teleported near the red dragon\'s face again but the red dragon wasn\'t an idiot. It had already predicted Sherry\'s actions and what greeted Sherry after her teleportation was the red dragon opening its mouth.
An extremely hot temperature was generated from the red dragon\'s mouth as its fiery dragon breath was released from its mouth, heading towards Sherry.
Although Sherry could teleport away from the dragon\'s fire breath, she knew that it would result in the deaths of hundreds of awakened humans that were currently several meters behind her.
Not only that, but it would also result in the deaths of thousands of civilians near the vicinity.
She didn\'t care much about the lives of those nobodies. But since she had a better method in mind which would result in preventing the sacrifice of thousands of lives, she opted for that method.
In a matter of seconds, Sherry forwarded her hands and created a black-colored portal in front of her. The black portal was large enough to devour the red dragon\'s fire breath.
"Graaaaah!!!"
The red dragon screamed again.
After all, the other end of the black portal was created on top of the red dragon and was directed toward it. In other words, the red dragon was being burned by its own fire!
