Chapter 824: I Can Read Minds, You Know?
"So it's a literal red desert," Ethan muttered as he looked at the sprawling desert in front of him.
The moment their Flying Ship entered its borders, it lost its ability to fly high in the sky, and slowly lost altitude.
Having already experienced a similar situation when they faced off against the Harpies in the sea, no one in the flying ship panicked.
Although their airship couldn't fly high in the sky, it could still hover three meters over the red sand.
However, their speed had also decreased by half. No matter how Merric and the others tried to increase the pace of the flying ship, nothing worked.
But they also understood that this might be a restriction placed over the domain, so they soon stopped worrying about it and focused on flying in the Northeast direction.
However, after an hour of traveling in the desert, Ethan asked Merric to stop the flying ship for a while because he wanted to test something out.
As soon as the ship stopped moving, Ethan jumped off on the ship and landed on the red sand. He then picked up a handful of it and slightly pulled his fingers apart, letting the wind blow it away.
The sand was like fine red powder, making the young man wonder if he really was holding sand.
"There are faint traces of magic in the sand,' Ethan's Other Half commented. 'It is highly possible that there is a powerful magical core somewhere in this area that converted this entire place into a red desert.'
'Also, if the sand has traces of magic, then the creatures living here are definitely powerful,' Sebastian said. 'Only strong monsters can thrive in this kind of environment. You should be careful, Ethan. That Chudo Yudo might be an extremely powerful monster.'
Ethan nodded in understanding before walking a few steps over the sand.
Just as he expected, it required a lot of effort to walk over the sand. Also, since the sand continuously shifted under his feet, it might get tricky during a fight.
After a few minutes of observation, Ethan returned to the ship and asked Merric to continue their journey.
Godfrey looked at the young man calmly, but deep inside, he was looking forward to how Ethan and his comrades would deal with the ancient monster that was hiding somewhere in the desert.
The Vampire Lord knew that the moment the Flying Ship had entered the Red Wastes, the horrifying multi-headed dragon, Chudo Yudo, had already detected their presence.
'It's only a matter of time before all of you become dragon's poop.' Godfrey laughed internally. "This is what you get for messing with me.'
Just now, he sensed a fluctuation in the distance and knew that Chudo Yudo was on its way to meet them.
Ethan, who also sensed the approaching danger, summoned his Sea God's Trident.
"Everyone, get ready," Ethan ordered. "Something is coming."
Everyone on the ship immediately took battle stations as the Catkins aimed their magical
cannons in the direction where Ethan was pointing at.
The Flying Ship only had two Magical Cannons because it was not really a battleship.
The cannons were just an added bonus when the Catkins purchased the ship.
Ethan glanced over the horizon and saw a small black dot that was slowly getting bigger and bigger with each passing second.
"Let's intercept it!" Ethan shouted as he summoned his Wind Dancer. "Merric, don't let the flying ship anywhere near it!"
A moment later, the blue-haired young man was hovering a few meters above the sand and charging straight toward the three-headed Dragon, which was over a hundred meters long. Nicole and Hecate summoned their flying brooms and followed behind Ethan.
Lyall and Conall, on the other hand, jumped off the ship and started to run on the sand.
Their pace was slower compared to Ethan and the others due to how difficult it was to run on
the sand.
Godfrey watched them go before casually opening a bottle of wine, which he poured into the glass that he had prepared for this occasion.
"Don't die too fast, okay?" Godfrey said as he swirled the wine in his glass. "This better be good."
Merric and the other Catkins wanted to fight alongside their Master.
But they also understood why Ethan ordered them to not come near the Dragon-if their ship was destroyed, their journey would be a lot harder.
In the end, they had no choice but to watch as their Young Master and his friends fought against the Giant Dragon, who had ruled over the Red Wastes for hundreds of years.
