Book 6: Chapter 353: Gradual Fall of the Long Sacred Thunder Throne

Above the central oasis in Thunder Canyon was the palace where the Thunder Dragon resided. This place was the home base of the Thunder Dragon. Besides the Thunder Dragon, some Draconian guards also watched over the place. The outer region of the Thunder Palace was guarded with a lightning barrier, so no outside intruders dared to challenge the authority of the Thunder Throne. Today, however, the throne met the most powerful challenger ever.

Black swarms of Abyss Demonic Insects had surrounded the Thunder Palace as the barrier that had never been broken in millennia was taken out with one slash of Kriss’ purple magic sword, the “Dimension Ripper.” The mighty purple aura of the sword pierced through the entire lightning protective barrier. The Thunder Dragon, who had just landed in the Thunder Palace, didn’t even have time to catch her breath before facing the new challengers.

The challengers this time, or invaders of the throne, were different from the warriors who had come to challenge the Thunder Throne in the past. They would have to proper Demon Kings if they brought along a large number of demonic beings with them to the fight. When she saw the Abyss Demonic Insects covering the sky, the Thunder Dragon could do nothing but regret that the script wasn’t going as planned.

The Thunder Dragon was even beginning to miss the dragon-slaying warriors. Honestly, she liked the whole warrior against the evil dragon script better. What on earth was up with this script? A demon invasion on the Thunder Throne? No matter how you looked at it, a Demon King fighting a Demonic Dragon was all kinds of wrong. After the lightning barrier was broken, the Abyss Crypt Insects remained airborne in front of the palace. Many Draconian guards wearing lightning armor raised their shields, forming a tight defense wall to block the Abyss Crypt Insects’ advances.

“Damn invaders. We will not let you defile the dignity of the Thunder Throne. Get out of…”

Before the Draconian guard could even finish speaking, several bugs flew over and grabbed its head. Then, with a tug, that guy’s head was pulled right off. That head was tossed onto the ground by an Abyss Crypt Insect and was crushed. These Abyss Crypt Insects belonged to the type of demonic beings that would get more spirited as they fought. The blood of their enemies could awaken the endless beastly urges inside of them.

“The Thunder Throne belongs to the queen! You eyesores, your blood will be an offering to the throne!”

“Pay attention, don’t kill the women, capture the live ones! Queen gives her order!”

The Abyss Demonic Insects charged over like a flood spraying out of an open dam, quickly scattering the defensive front formed by the Draconian guards. The Abyss Demonic Insects chased after them and killed them, quickly occupying the square in front of the Thunder Palace as they were all gradually closing in.

Bella stood on the back of one of the giant Abyss Demonic Insects, the Tyrant Horned Beetle. Bella didn’t know whether to laugh or cry about her subordinate Abyss Crypt Insects’ actions. She didn’t seem to have given such an order, did she? Did they mistake her for the Insect Empress Vicky Hill? Only Vicky Hill would give this sort of order to capture the females and use them as cultivation material. If it were her, she wouldn’t do something so evil.

A huge bolt of thunder was shot straight at Bella and the Tyrant Horned Beetle she was mounting. Several giant Abyss Demonic Insects noticed this move and got in front to block the deadly lightning attack. The attack was sent over by the Thunder Dragon, as it was considered one of her most powerful attacks. It was strong enough to fry several giant Abyss Demonic Insects with the highest lightning resistance into dust.

Bella jumped down from the Tyrant Horned Beetle and wielded the “Dragon Beheader” in her two hands. The two-handed sword that was stained with dragons’ blood reflected a dazzling gleam under the light. The Thunder Dragon flapped its wings a few times. From the looks of it, it was going to fly up to avoid the attack.

An arc of greyish-white light was shooting precisely towards the Thunder Dragon. She was just about to fly when she was suddenly stopped. Suddenly, the Thunder Dragon’s huge body landed weakly on the palace and could not fly for a short amount of time. Isaman was standing on the back of a Tyrant Horned Beetle. When she saw the Thunder Dragon’s attempt to fly up again, she flipped open the magic book, “Dragon Slayer Overture,” as she launched a forbidden air magic designed against dragons to trap the Thunder Dragon on the palace floor.

The combat skills of the Thunder Dragon weren’t any good. Besides her lightning attacks, she didn’t know any other magic as most of her killing prowess came mainly from the fact that her attacks were of the pure lightning attribute. Most of the Other World’s defensive barriers were not immune to lightning attacks, so it was practically impossible for them to do anything against lightning attacks. As usual, the Thunder Dragon opened her mouth and shot out a super long lightning attack at Bella.

Bella was wearing the Thunder Lizard’s horn. Under the horn’s protection, the Thunder Dragon’s lightning attack didn’t do any real damage to Bella as she landed on top of the Thunder Dragon’s head and raised her two-handed sword to slash down. Just as she was about to swing the sword, Bella seemed to have realized something. With a turn of her hands, she ended up knocking down with the sword’s back instead of cutting down with the blade as she had planned to earlier.

Even though she didn’t cut her down with the blade, Bella was very strong. Knocking out with the blade’s back was no different from knocking someone’s head with a wooden stick. With a loud bang, the Thunder Dragon swayed from being hit on the head and almost fell unconscious. This woman was definitely not a human. Her strength was even greater than a human Dragon Knight or a Berserker. The Thunder Dragon shook her head and threw Bella off.

At this moment, Kriss had also come down with Bella. She held the purple “Dimension Ripper” in one hand and another sword, smothered in black flames called the “Dark Revelation,” in the other hand. Suddenly, both the swords aura formed a large cross together and shot straight at the Thunder Dragon.

This cross attack was mixed in with temporal and dark energy, belonging to a mixed attribute attack. The Thunder Dragon didn’t dare to take it head-on. She thought of raising her claw to block it, but she didn’t expect Bella to take the opportunity, when the Thunder Dragon wasn’t paying attention after throwing her off, to rush over with her sword raised, as she hit the Thunder Dragon’s right claw with the back of her sword.

The force she had put into this hit was no less than the one on her head. The Thunder Dragon’s claw was numb from the impact. At the very end, Bella suppressed some of her energy. Otherwise, she could have broken Thunder Dragon’s right claw. Besides the right claw, the left one was not spared either. The second round of magic attack cast by Isaman was the spherical magic, “Dragon Exterminating Ripple,” which clashed with the Thunder Dragon’s left claw, instantly creating a large explosion.

Both the Thunder Dragon’s claws were critically hit, causing her to scream in pain. At that moment, Kriss’ cross attack had also arrived. The Thunder Dragon was hit by a triple blow, causing her huge body to be blown several meters off the ground. The Thunder Dragon disappeared in a cloud of smoke and dust, leaving behind only a line of blue blood marks on the ground.

“Damn it! It got away. Bella, what made you so merciful? That’s not like you! You clearly had several chances to cripple the Thunder Dragon.”

After the battle was temporarily over, Kriss and Isaman both came over to ask Bella with a little confused expression on their faces. Bella had two chances to deal a fatal blow to the Thunder Dragon. With Bella’s brute strength and the “Dragon Reaper’s” trait, it won’t be difficult to sever the Thunder Dragon’s head or claws. However, Bella chose to go easy on the dragon at the last moment.

“Don’t worry, she won’t be able to run. The Thunder Dragon just changed into a human shape. Let’s put on a jacket. This is a bit…”

Bella and the girls were still wearing bikini swimsuits, and it was only now that she realized how out of place this must have been for a dragon-slaying operation. A dragon that beat a bunch of heavily armored warriors half to death was beaten to the point she had to flee from these beautiful ladies wearing bikinis that clearly looked like they were here for a vacation. If those dragon slayers saw them, then they would probably be weeping over the toilet. They were also slaying dragons, but the difference was too big.

The Abyss Crypt Insects promptly came forward to give their masters several sets of black cloaks. Draping it over themselves, it was just enough to mask their alluring figures for now. There was a demon mask to go with it as well, but after thinking about it, they chose not to wear it since the masks were too ugly.

Bella suspected that the Thunder Dragon was female. She was quite familiar with the Dragon Race’s princesses, such as Golden Dragon Princess Laceman, whom she had taken as her mount. She was also very sensitive to the smells of beautiful young dragon ladies. Earlier when they were fighting in close combat, Bella was able to take a clear whiff of the Thunder Dragon. The dragon had the same fragrance as the other dragon princesses. If this Thunder Dragon weren’t a girl, then there was no reason for her to use such a heavy-scented perfume.

But if the Thunder Dragon really were a girl, then there was a lot she could forgive her for. Bella’s main goal was the Thunder Throne. As for the Thunder Dragon, she temporarily couldn’t tell Isaman and Kriss who had come with her. Bella’s main profession was still a Dragon Knight. It was quite an attractive thought to her, adding another dragon mount to her collection. The Dragon Race in this Other World didn’t have a Thunder Dragon Race. So to say, the Thunder Dragon was a creation of a different dimension, and the value of that Thunder Dragon was even greater than Bella’s Golden Dragon Princess Laceman… No, it was higher than any other dragon princesses that Bella had encountered.

“Bella, you currently have a terrifying expression. That Thunder Dragon couldn’t possibly be a female… right?”

“Kriss, I don’t know what gender that Thunder Dragon is either, so don’t just make a random guess! Let’s go and see what that legendary Thunder Throne looks like! My subordinates have already secured a path for us.”

Bella was able to dispel Kriss’ suspicions in time. Sure enough, Kriss was Bella’s “No. 1 girlfriend.” She could tell something was off just by looking at her face. Fortunately, she wasn’t the jealous type. Kriss brought her “Golden Finger” sword space with her, which contained tens of thousands of famed swords with beautiful maiden spirits inside them, who all served Kriss as their master. In fact, Kriss was already a queen who had a large “sword spirit” harem, so it was easy to understand Bella’s “playboy” nature.

The gates of the Thunder Palace had already been breached by the Abyss Demonic Insects, and the limited number of Draconian guards couldn’t withstand the Abyss Demonic Insects’ tidal wave-like attacks. The ground was covered in the corpses of Draconian warriors and Abyss Crypt Insects that were piled up like a corpse mountain. It almost blocked the way to the Thunder Palace. Some Abyss Crypt Insects had already begun cleaning up the bodies.

There was a glint in Bella’s eyes, her gaze was those of a predator. Isaman and Princess Kriss, who were behind Bella, hadn’t noticed that Bella had already caught onto her prey. At the very last line of defense inside the Thunder Palace were a large number of dancing figures battling. They were a special group of elven beauties. They were called elves mainly because they had the pointy sort of ears similar to the Elven Race.

The elves were divided into many branches due to the different oracles they worshipped. Bella had only seen the Moon Elf Race and the Dusk Elf Race, but none of the Elven Races in this dimension believed in the Thunder God. So to say, these Thunder Elves were not the products of this dimension. They belonged to another dimension. In addition to the Draconians, there were also many beauties from the Thunder Elf Race guarding the Thunder Palace. This was surprising, and also exciting for Bella.

The Thunder Elf beauties were tall and dainty. They followed the traditionally slim body types of the Elven Race with natural bust sizes. They weren’t the type of elves with fully developed bosoms. Their long hair and irises were dark blue in color as opposed to the lighter blue of the water elves. A dozen Thunder Elf beauties were guarding the place as the very last line of defense. They were well diverse in terms of professions, with elven swordsmen blocking the front and elven archers and elven mages in the rear for 1long-range support.

The elves’ professions were different from the Human Race. They didn’t have specialized cavalry professions, and you could only find a similar profession in terms of individual branches that functioned similarly to the cavalry. Without cavalry, they won’t be able to carry the front. Most elven swordsmen didn’t like holding a small shield in front of them like the humans, resulting in a poor defense.

Clearly, Bella’s group of Abyss Demonic Insects were waiting for their queen to make a decision. They only lined up in a group of low-level Abyss Crypt Insects to rush in like kamikazes. Abyss Crypt Insects had extended out their proboscises to suck the energy from their companions’ corpses or the Draconians on the ground to keep on evolving.

That special trace of blood left behind by the fleeing Thunder Dragon indicated that it went all along with the palace floors to this place, so the Thunder Dragon must have been hiding here. Bella and Isaman had wounded her two front claws as she was nearly knocked unconscious by Bella. And, with that cross attack that she suffered from Kriss, it was a miracle she even managed to escape. If this were any other dragon, then that round of attacks would have been enough to take them down. However, the Thunder Dragon’s fortune wouldn’t last long now.

What interested Bella was the fact that the beautiful elven ladies were all wearing jeweled lingerie. The sort of sexy underwear where the key sensitive parts were covered by beautiful gems and the outside was just a light blue see-through chiffon layer. Following the Thunder Elves’ flourishing movements, the chiffon would flutter up, causing them to look just like dancers.

Wearing such sexy lingerie, were they forcing people to think of other things! After fending off many rounds of attacks, the beautiful thunder elf maidens’ bodies were long covered in sweat, causing the chiffon layer to stick to their bodies in an alluring state. It wasn’t that the Thunder Elves liked to dress this way, but because the Thunder Palace was short on fabric. It was nice enough that they had these chiffon layers to wear. It had been a long time since any adventurers made it here, and for them to receive such rare “guests” today, they just had to be the invaders.

Bella had always been a demoness who couldn’t withstand the temptation of beautiful maidens. The Abyssal Crypt Insect Lord, who had been observing Bella’s expression and waiting for orders afar, came to Bella’s side to take her command. Abyss Demonic Beings generally stayed true to the wishes of their masters. This Abyss Crypt Insect Lord guessed that Bella would likely have other arrangements, so it didn’t give the order for a forceful attack. If they went in with force, then the Thunder Elves who couldn’t even stand up to the Draconians would definitely not be able to withstand the Abyss Demonic Insect swarm.

“My queen, to capture these girls alive as a tribute to you, my subordinates have prepared super-strong Human Face Spiders. Please give the order, my queen!”

“That’s a good idea, but I’m going to take part in this fun event personally. You and your spiders can just wait for orders at the side. Watch my hand gestures to act.”

The Abyss Crypt Insect Lord wanted to wait for their queen to arrive and then put on a good show for Bella, but Bella quickly turned down its suggestion. After making sure that Kriss and Isaman were both acquiesced, Bella put on her demon mask and headed towards the Thunder Palace’s last line of defense.

“Halt. You will go no further! This is Mistress Gelemans’ territory!”

When they saw Bella walk forward, several Thunder Elf Swordsmen came over with their swords to stop her, but Bella had her Thunder Lizard horn, so lightning attacks were ineffective against her. She just grabbed the lightning swords held by the other and pulled an elf swordswoman over, gently strangling her neck.

“Elf sister, don’t be so fierce. It’s not like you’re a fire elf.”

“You… You’re a woman! How could this be?!”

After their close encounter, the Thunder Elf swordswoman who was caught finally realized that Bella was also female. But before she was done with her surprise, she was knocked unconscious by Bella. A dark protective energy barrier rose up around Bella, blocking all attacks from the Thunder Elf swordsmen, mages, and archers.

“That barrier is magic… No good! Quickly…”

“What’s pulling my leg? Help…”

Bella gestured to the rear as the Human Face Spiders that were already on standby shot out spider strings that stuck to the beautiful thunder elf maidens’ hands or feet. Then, with a pull, they all fell to the ground. When they were struggling to get up, the Human Face Spiders quickly crawled over them, pointing their spikes at their throats and injecting a paralyzing toxin into their bodies.

Soon, the Thunder Elves were all limp on the floor. The dark blue chiffon covering their bodies was dissolved by Human Face Spiders’ fluid. Since Bella didn’t give the order, the Human Face Spiders didn’t reach the last step, which was to suck them dry, so the Thunder Elves were safe for now.

Before Bella had the chance to admire her “new trophy,” she was struck by a red lightning bolt. Thunder Dragon Geleman, hiding at the Thunder Throne, delivered her strongest blow, hoping to repel Bella, this woman who looked like an Abyss Demonic Insect.
