The Golden Throne

Chapter 218: Planting the bomb

The entire day was spent on mediating. Utter silence was all that remained, with the two of them with their eyes closed the whole time. After a while, Liu Feng opened his eyes. He saw light, but he knew that it was not the same day anymore. A night had also passed.

“Well, looks like I have to check in on them and see where they are,” he muttered as he got off the truck and put some distance between him and Arad. He did not want to disturb Arad any further, as Arad was meditating. 

He then took out a communication mana stone from his spatial ring and started activating it. This was a special stone that could always track the right person with no chance of losing the target, and it was specially locked onto only Liu Man.

He poured mana into it, and the milky white stone turned even foggier, with the mana inside swirling.

“What is it, Liu Feng? Where are you? Are you in the previous city at least?” Liu Man’s voice came from the other side.

“Did you reach the capital? How tired are the men?” Liu Feng asked.

“We are almost there. We can see a pillar of black light from where I am standing, and it is obvious that we have to go there.” Liu Man said.

“I see. Do one thing, father. Stay where you are. It is better if all the soldiers get some rest. Put up camp there. Glade might send a messenger, so allow him to come, and try to stall for as much time as you can. After an hour, you will see something truly spectacular.” Liu Feng said.

“Ten miles from the city? Are you sure? Alright, I am trusting you on this. It better be worth it.” Liu Man.

Liu Feng smiled as he stopped supplying mana into the stone. He put it back into his spatial ring, and walked back to the truck.

“I see that it is time to do whatever you have been planning to do so for the last one month,” Arad said. He was awake now, and it did not even look like he was still for the last twenty four hours.

“Yes, Arad. It is time. I need you to completely transform now. I need to make sure that you are able to do this very easily, and able to escape in time.” Liu Feng said with a concerned tone.

“I am a dragon. Not even a weak one. I might not be able to claim that I am able to deal with a demon minister on my own, but I sure as hell can claim that I can escape from one.” Arad said. He stepped out of the truck and went to look at the missile.

“I see that you have shaped a few handles that are comfortable for holding even with my dragon claws,” Arad said.

“When you are the only one I can count on to lift it and deploy it. Why wouldn’t I make it a little more comfortable for you?” Liu Feng chuckled. He then walked up to the missile and poured in some mana into one of the arrays.

“You have fifteen minutes now. Make sure that the missile is in the center of the city. It will be able to kill as many demons as it can.” Liu Feng said.

Arad sighed as he shook his head. He then roared to the air, and his entire body changed. His arms started bulking up, and the muscles looked huge now. His whole body was becoming bigger and bigger, and Liu Feng had to strain his neck to see Arad. 

He looked majestic, and just like Liu Feng felt when he first saw Arad in his true form. With black scales all over, and a towering height, he also looked intimidating. Arad did not waste any time on chit chat and he took the missiles with the handles. He then started flapping his humongous wings and flew to the skies.

“Oh god, I hope this works. It better work. Please scientists. Your discoveries should be right, I am counting on it.” Liu Feng muttered as he brought his hands to his mouth.

“You have put in too many hopes into this, Liu Feng. As your spirit, I must warn you against doing so. It is one of the worst things that you can do. If this does not go as planned, then what are you going to do? You must be ready to fight.” Aquous said.

“It is not that I want to put too many hopes into this, but rather that I know that if it works, so many lives can be saved.” Liu Feng said.

He went to the front of the truck and looked at the city. The pillar looked menacing, and Liu Feng flinched as he saw it.

“Such a concentration of corrupt mana shouldn’t exist. That must be where the portal or whatever is situated. As long as I take care of that, all of this will be over. And those goddamn ministers. Where is the dragon tribe now? I thought that they would be joining the final fight. I should have asked them before. I should have asked Arad to tell them the final fight was starting.” Liu Feng thought to himself. 

He brought his nails to his mouth and started biting them. He looked at the city tensly. He saw a black dot next to the pillar, and it was almost masked by the huge pillar. The black dot started getting larger and larger.

Seeing this, Liu Feng’s face changed. He stood on guard and raised his arms. He then sighed with relief after seeing that it was Arad.

“Nothing happened. I planted it in the center, but all that it did was cause a bit of commotion. Even the demon ministers were not bothered because I did not attempt to kill anyone. Like I said, I really suggest that you don’t keep you hopes-“

Boom!
