In recent years, most of the rune stones Connie had collected for Joelson had been eaten by Lightning, to such an extent that its power even surpassed Du Lu.
He is the most cunning. He first devoured a large number of low-tier rune stones and, when he was strong enough, he would roam the wilderness to hunt high-tier rune stones.
It is unknown when he became the most powerful dragon under Joelson's command.
Lightning's great head appeared in front of Joelson. It opened its mouth wide and the rune stones of the various elements flowed like rain.
Most of them were stone runes. There were also quite a number of gold-level runes. That's more than Connie collected. This is what's left for Joelson.
"At least you still have a conscience."
Joelson smiled as he stroked Lightning's head. The latter narrowed his eyes and acted flirtatious like a big dog.
The Western City was several times larger than Stormwind City. Compared to smaller cities like Meteor City, it was more than ten times larger than the latter.
As the supreme ruler to the west of the rune land, Archduke Isaac's residence occupied over 30% of the territory of the Western City.
It was much more luxurious than the Inmotadic Imperial Palace in the central continent.
In an extremely luxurious hall, a burly man sat at the very top.
He was wearing a very luxurious robe.
The robe was studded with countless runestones wrapped in purple lightning. Each of them was carefully polished with stone runes.
The crown he wore on his head was also encrusted with three sets of golden runestones that were like jewels.
However, this set of clothes was enough to make countless rune warriors go crazy.
There were dozens of rune warriors standing in the hall. The mark on each of their foreheads shone with a golden luster.
There was no one in front with the inlaid crystal on their foreheads, which shone brilliantly.
There were dozens of gold-ranked rune warriors and five crystal-ranked rune experts.
Other than Archduke Isaac, whose aura kept suppressing everyone in the hall, the marks on his forehead were constantly emitting a diamond-like glow.
This was a power that could make the entire ground rune tremble.
"The Lord of Storm City has agreed to attend the banquet. If nothing is wrong."
Duke Isaac played with the ring on his finger and slowly said, "This will be an opportunity for me to completely break through to the crystal level and advance to the diamond level. It will also be the beginning for me to reclaim the entire rune land. ."
Everyone in the large hall had a respectful and fanatical expression on their faces.
“The giant beast relied on by the lord of the windstorm city should be a secret beast. His strength should be at least at the crystal level. If I can hunt him down and devour his strength, my physical body and runes will be able to achieve it. Higher level, completely advance to a diamond level I have never seen before!"
"I heard that he also collected a large amount of electric-type secret stones to feed the secret beast. Hehe, disregarding his main point, I'm afraid he's already been treated as a puppet by the Runic Beast."
A crystal-level secret warrior said hesitantly, "A few years ago, there were traces of secret beasts in the city of fire and the city of meteorites. At that moment, there were also people who collected a large amount of low-tier rune stones. I don't know if it's the same person."
Archduke Isaac casually replied, "High-tier rune stones will develop self-awareness over a long period of time. Some devious people will think of this method. There were even people who would transform into human form and enter the secret land. Not surprisingly. ."
"Transformed into human form?!"
Everyone in the hall was suddenly shocked.
Archduke Isaac narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Do you really think that the four archdukes from the secret land are all human?"
Everyone is dumbfounded.
This news is too shocking. From the meaning expressed by the words of Archduke Isaac, it seems that the four archdukes from the secret land still need the existence of the secret beast.
Thinking of the secret stone he controlled, one day, they would rise to his head and use humans as tools to gather the secret stones and devour everything.
"Rubber!"
A low dragon roar came from outside the hall.
Duke Isaac slowly stood up. His eyes flickered as he slowly said, "They're here."
..
With the speed of Lightning, it took less than two days for Joelson and his group to reach the Western City.
If they did not find a high-quality water-type runestone along the way, the collection process would take a lot of time, and the time would be shortened.
Lightning stopped in the sky above Western City. The shadow cast by his huge body caused the entire city to fall into a momentary panic.
Connie glanced at Joelson. He wanted to get off the back of Lightning and go to the Archduke Isaac's residence to party and find out what he meant.
Just like in Meteor City, he used magic crystals to send messages.
However, Joelson shook his head and said calmly, "That's no trouble."
He patted Lightning's head lightly and Lightning instantly understood.
It opened its mouth slightly and dazzling lightning gathered in its mouth and finally spat out.
A flaming flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the entire area, accompanied by a loud rumble of thunder.
Most of Isaac's Archduke mansion collapsed and was destroyed.
Continuous sounds from the weighing system.
Everyone looked at the shadow in the sky in shock.
They did not believe that there was still someone rushing into the territory personally supervised by Archduke Isaac to behave cruelly?
Dozens of figures flew out from the collapsed house. The one who led them was none other than Archduke Isaac, who was wearing luxurious clothes.
There was a hint of surprise in his eyes but a cold smile hung on his face.
His gaze fell on Lightning, and he said grimly, "You're really smart."
"Rubber!"
Lightning could not be bothered to talk to this bug. It opened its mouth and released a large amount of flaming lightning.
The Archduke Isaac's expression changed slightly and a powerful lightning force erupted from his body as well. His eyes lit up and he laughed loudly as he said, "That's right. At least it was a crystal level rune stone, and it was an electric type rune stone!"
"That's the best."
His gaze coldly swept over Joelson, Connie, and the others behind Lightning, treating them as puppets under Lightning's control. He said coldly, "I've sent them here to deal with the secret beasts. Find an opportunity to kill them, and then capture the beast alive together."
Isaac's expression became excited. His eyes stared intently at the ferocious Lightning, and he said in a low voice, "A very strong and incredible strength. Diamond level, I'll reach it soon."
Five crystal rank secret warriors led dozens of gold rank secret warriors as they quietly approached. Their gazes were directed at Joelson and the others.
However, Joelson's gaze was fixed on the battle between Lightning and Isaac.
As expected, Isaac's potential was very strong. He was the strongest person he had met in the secret land.
He was roughly between the peak of the holy rank and the sacred realm. His strength was on par with the Holy Zither, who had just comprehended the embryonic form of a domain.
Back then, when he had just comprehended the power of platinum, he was already able to defeat the Sacred Zither, not to mention now.
This little bit of strength from Archduke Isaac did not interest Joelson at all.
