However, Leonard Churchill had a bad premonition, knowing the difficulty of an A-grade story couldn’t be just this, and the “big shot” had not yet appeared.

Now he truly had no clue, “Strange… where will the danger come from? And where will the Holy Grail appear…”

Yet, no sooner had this thought emerged than the unexpected happened very suddenly.

Leonard’s night vision was incredibly strong, and he had been observing his surroundings, with the Demon Pointer showing no signs of activity.

He had assumed there were no signs of Demons within several kilometers, so danger seemed impossible.

But suddenly, his pupils constricted and he exclaimed in his heart, “Flying dragons?”

A cluster of black dots appeared out of nowhere above the Holy Spirit Mountain Range.

The dots grew bigger and bigger.

It seemed like some flying objects were heading towards the Twin Towers Cliff.

Leonard thought he was seeing things, but the dots moved extremely fast and got closer and closer.

His pupils had already shifted to wolf pupils, making things crystal clear.

They were a group of monsters with dozens of meters in length, flesh wings, scale armor, and a giant dragon head.

Although different from the mythical dragons described in the classic books, with the Clown mask’s enhancement, the information about these monsters was revealed.

“Hell Flame Flying Dragon”

Explanation: Third Tier B-level Catastrophe, hybrid subspecies with a trace of Dragon Bloodline; it possesses an extremely powerful body and the ability to spew Flame Dragon Breath.

Though not mythical dragons, they were still terrifying.

Like the Iron Spinal Ground Dragon Man encountered before, any Dragon Descendant was almost a Catastrophe Level monster.

And it wasn’t just one!

It was a group!

At a glance, there were at least a dozen Third Tier Catastrophe monsters.

The mere sight of this group of powerful creatures was enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

Not only did Leonard see them, but others did too.

The crowd instantly panicked.

No one expected the Demon Corps to descend in this manner.

“Look, what is that!”

“My god, flying dragons!”

“They’re the Hell Flying Dragons of the Demon Corps, prepare for battle!”

“…”

Even before the Flying Dragon Legion had arrived, the dreadful pressure already made it difficult for people to breathe.

Everyone then understood where the difficulty of an A-grade story lay.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”

In the blink of an eye, a group of flying dragons flew rapidly overhead, bringing gusts of wind that seemed to flay one’s scalp.

Immediately thereafter, the sky was filled with flames and rolling heatwaves.

Opening their ferocious maws, the flying dragons spewed hot Dragon’s breath that painted swathes of fiery red in the darkened forest.

In almost an instant, the vast forest was set ablaze.

At the same time, dragon cavalry on the backs of the dragons howled as they jumped down, charging towards the group of about a hundred people in the forest.

Fortunately, these people were all elites; even the Non-Player Characters were of the second or third tier.

Moreover, the white-robed Mage Gandalf demonstrated the absolute dominance of magicians in warfare!

Watching the Flying Dragon Legion attack, his expression changed and his staff was already shining with Holy Light.

He raised his hand and a huge hand, several dozen meters in size, materialized out of the Void.

It swiftly grabbed one of the flying dragons that was about to swoop from above and then yanked it violently, resulting in a scene that left everyone awestruck!

The fat dragon caught by the invisible hand howled in pain as red and black lines that looked like Space Rifts appeared around its body, and its massive frame uncontrollably sank downwards.

The dragon fell with almost teleportational speed,

and with a “boom,” it smashed heavily into the ground, creating a huge crater.

The flying dragon cried in pain, trying to struggle, but it spewed a stream of magma-like blood, stumbled, and then collapsed in the cracked pit.

Was a Third Tier Catastrophe defeated in one move?

Witnessing this scene, Leonard immediately recognized it: “Hand of the Mage?!”

Mage Rowland’s notes mentioned such a controlling skill for magicians, but… it couldn’t possibly be this strong.

Leonard recalled the instant the flying dragon was torn down, and urgently thought: “No, it’s not just magic… there’s also that other Law power!”

Hand of the Mage was indeed a controlling spell.

But to bring down a Hell Flying Dragon that excelled in strength normally would be impossible.

The key was those red and black lines that appeared like Space Rifts!

Leonard could recognize them because he knew what they were: the bizarre force field contained within the Power Gem Golden Sphere!

At that moment, that Golden Orb was still embedded in his alloy vest.

He had tried countless times; whenever he channeled Curse Power into it, it would create a force field that made gravity behave strangely.

Since the orb came from Outpost Battle and Mage Gambillo knew this trick, it made sense.

Leonard thought, “Could it be that the Golden Orb has leaked out from the human Kingdom?”

In that instant, an idea flashed through his mind.

If a magician could research the power of the orb so thoroughly, it meant at the very least he had once possessed that orb.

Or there could be a similar treasure.

Whatever the case, Leonard was deeply intrigued.

Especially after witnessing the method used to instantly kill a Third Tier Catastrophe, his curiosity was piqued.

Now the orb was in his possession; apart from discovering its ability to “increase carrying capacity when infused with Curse Power,” it had no other uses.

It was like casting pearls before swine.

Yet now he watched someone master that power—wasn’t that a clear path to a Secret Skill?

Since it had appeared, as long as he survived and got out, wouldn’t it mean that he might obtain it from the post-mission lottery draw?
