Regarding the ancient dragons speaking the general language of the continent was considered reasonable since they have been the previous masters of these continent, also they possessed extraordinary intelligence, giving them the ability to strategize in battle and even learn from their past mistakes. Even though an animal speaking looked strange, no one could complain since the lizardmen were more like animals as well.
But this case was quite different, Derik and the other two were pretty sure these green beasts were not from this planet, guessing from the way they talk. Their aura was foreign and their internal body structure looked the same but was clearly different in some ways.
Didn't they just arrive? How did they learn their language so quickly? It just doesn't make sense!
"A weak-looking being just like you spoke to me rudely some minutes ago and I decided to take his life… Unfortunately, thanks to your interference I could not achieve my goal… From your extremely arrogant attitude and based on the same dark energy flowing from your body… It is safe to assume you are the master he spoke of… am I correct?" The three-meter tall orc ignored Cyrus' question and focused his attention on Derik as he spoke.
His eyes ran through Derik's body and he didn't need anyone to tell him that Derik's physical capabilities were nowhere inferior to his own thanks to the werewolf side and the abundance of his aura showed he was only a level below him in terms of supernatural powers. His eyes left Derik and scanned through the dead orcs below, he could tell most of them died due to the special power this aura possesses.
"I won't deny it… The man you harmed is a member of my sect and I am his master… apologize now and beg for my forgiveness and I may let you leave this place alive" Derik sneered.
"Your disciple spoke to me the same way and I almost ended his life… Do you think I won't do the same for you?" The three-meter tall orc narrowed his glowing green eyes as he spoke with clenched fists. He was obviously irritated by Derik's attitude!
His commanders staying at a respectable distance were stunned. This was one of the five great orc chiefs of the five clans, even then the other orc chiefs have to treat this warlord with respect because of his strength! In their world, no one dared to look down on their leader, only the orc lord who was a demigod existence dares to speak to their chief in such a ruthless way. Yet an unknown magician from another world who was clearly inferior to their chief in a few ways dares to speak to him so rudely?
He must be tired of living!!!
"Such insolence!!!" The orc chief roared and punched out ruthlessly!
A massive green fist shot out from his hands and flew towards Derik who wasn't too far, reaching him even before the blink of an eye! Even though this attack seemed simple, the power it exuded was so vast the three gold realm masters felt suppressed greatly under this massive force.
"Kill me? With this? Ha! You are not qualified!!" Derik was the first to move, laughing hysterically as he dashed forward.
Death armor!
His body was instantly covered in a shiny white exoskeleton with a pair of two meter long claws. His eyes let out a terrifying darkish purple glow as he brandishes his claws at the green energy fist!
"Secret level combat technique: brilliant claw!"
Bang!!
Bang!!
Bang!!!
Derik spurted out a mouthful of black blood as he struggled against the attack alone. Visible cracks appeared on his armor and his claws showed signs of breaking but his vicious laughter never seized even for a second.
"You dare attack one of us? Do you think we will not join hands against you?" Kaido bellowed and appeared behind Derik, grabbing him by the shoulder and pulling him back. His eyes let out a graceful orange light as he casually sent his fist flying towards the green fist.
Boooom!!!
The explosion was quite severe, forcing Kaido to fall back a few steps but he remained unscathed, only his right hand felt a bit numb. The orc chief on the other hand was forced to retreat a few steps away too, even he wore an astonished expression as he didn't expect Kaido's s aura which was the least threatening amongst the three could grant him such explosive power. For the first time since he met these people, he felt threatened by their existence. If they should join hands to fight him, they may actually be able to end his life.
Amongst the orcs, he was considered a genius since he was able to reach this level at such a young age. Even though he was not as powerful as the other orc chiefs who he described as old monsters, his power was not far off. The green battle orc clan was known for its enhancing green aura which is used to strengthen one's capabilities, even allowing them to reach a realm where they can easily fight until their body is unable to move anymore, with this his clan was easily the strongest amongst the orcs in terms of physical abilities! And their foot soldiers were the most feared thanks to their undead qualities. With this power and his forces, he rose to the top amongst the orcs and even though he recently stepped a foot into the peak grade of the gold realm, he was not too far off from the other orc chiefs who have been stuck at the peak grade of the gold realm for decades now. According to the orc lord, the only demi-god level existence in their world, he was the one most likely to succeed him as the new orc lord.
This could be considered the first time the young orc chief has faced defeat and he was unwilling to accept it. He gritted his teeth and with curled fists, he had thoughts of battling these three to the death for the sake of his pride but before he could make a move, banging sounds echoed behind the three human masters and five more gold realm beings appeared from thin air, gazing at the orc chief disdainfully!
"You are the one that dared to attack my empire? What do you have to say in your defense" A man with leaf green hair and emerald green eyes spoke up first. He was dressed in a green robe attire and numerous leaves of various kinds and colors twirled around him.
"Choose your next words wisely, they may be your last…" Ahika spoke indifferently while tightening his grip on his golden fire trident.
"RETREAT!!!!"
Seeing this the young orc chief's expression distorted and he remained dazed for a while. Not hesitating any longer he turned into a green beam of light and felt towards a particular spot vanishing instantly. Soon his commanders followed him and fled and soon the horde of orcs began to flee as well, all surging towards that location, vanishing in large numbers
"A teleportation portal? well hidden!" Kalos exclaimed in shock.
Roar!!!!
Derik ignored everyone else and dived into the horde of orcs ruthlessly, killing as many as possible, not bothering to spare a glance at the other gold realm masters that appeared. His cultivation had reached a bottle neck for a while now due to the peaceful enivornment, now he has a chance to gather as much souls and life forces as possible, why would he hesitate?
