Chapter 2426: 2426. Too Fast



"You are leaving ahead of them?" Su was meeting with Midnight to show off the dragon breath skills she had been working on. Mostly because she wanted to compare them with Midnights.

Since Midnight could use the same dragon breath skills and alter the manas to mix now, Su knew that Midnight might be able to show here where the lacking aspects of her own mana mixing could be. In the end though, they had both ended up working on combining their own dragon breath skills.

A nice trick to have a larger area of effect attack when they were fighting together. Su could defend while Midnight attacked. And if they were ever surrounded, they could release dragon breath together that worked to enhance one another's attacks along with covering the area.

"I will help." Midnight had felt like she didn't do enough. Two of the undead shifting slimes she had gone after had been defeated before she had gotten to them. Then there was the one that escaped which she had first attacked.

While she had managed to attack and defeat one with the few guards that reached it first, she felt like she had lost. Not only lost the respect of those that she had the duty of protecting, but that she had lost faith within herself.

As much as Su could sense this and wanted to stop Midnight from venturing to the vampire ruined city of fields where the demi-human kingdom had already sent some to begin the excavation, she knew that it was better to let this event run its course.

"Then make sure you are careful. I know you managed to learn a little about wind mana recently to fly faster, but you also crashed harder the last time you practiced it. Just because Ventus and her children use it all the time does not mean you are ready either." Su fully understood what midnight would do.

The training group of people would be leaving the city to get to the city of fields that would be excavated from the earth. While it would be a slightly longer journey for those who had to walk since the area was still somewhat out of the main demi-human territories, Midnight and others could fly.

The vampires would fly with Walker for the most part. Those of the vampires and others going without wings or without the ability to fly would be carried by Walker's wind mana manipulation. He was using that every time now that he could since he would speed up the travel time. Not that he really needed to, the strength of the expedition teams meant that even running, people could keep up without entirely exhausting themselves.

Regardless, Midnight was already flapping her wings and making it in to the air to leave Su behind. Su just shook her head slightly while hoping that Midnight did not crash head on in to a rough rock wall. The last time she tried the dragon speed wind elemental buff on her body, she had lost control and moved too quickly. The result was a farmer's stone wall being broken. She had seen Ventus use the skill casually while also seeing one of her children use it. The speed they flew was much faster for more than the fact that they were just wind dragons. It was also because they had the ability to shape that wind and increase the speed at which they could fly. While others with wings and wind affinity could learn similar skills, the dragon speed skill was using wind mana with a more potent effect that the dragons could resist due to the strength of their bodies.

Simply put, she had rushed ahead too, and knew that she would have been digging for the entrance too. She wanted to show her strength and skills here. So that was that. No arguing over the requirements or what she should do in procedure. The demi-humans had just made it easier and they knew her strength so they respected what she said.

With this, the guards had been ordered back and Midnight was brought to the mages who were now all benign brought toward the main entrance area they thought had been covered in dirt and broken stones over the years.

While Midnight could not see much yet, she knew that the demi-humans with earth related skills had done a lot. The large piles of soil and broken stones proved that this was a collapsed entrance to something underground. But the fact that they had already found some remains of monster bones worried her.

Why would the monster bones be by the entrance? That was what Midnight was asking herself. She did not communicate much out loud, but she could question the validity and reasoning behind what she was seeing.

If the insides of this entrance had collapsed, it might have for good reason. This place had been around during ancient times. Naturally, it would have one subject to ancient monsters attacking it. And if they had gotten in and been dangerous... Well, it might not have just been the wars between races that had made this city of ancient vampires become nothing but ruins.
