<h4>Chapter 84: Max’s Arrival, A New Skill</h4>


    Max continued to move forward in the snowstorm.


    Heavy snow rained down, and paved Max’s path forward.


    His surroundings were a vast expanse of whiteness. Other than the sky, everything was white.


    Max shook the snow that had piled up on his wings.


    He had already been at the Moldos Mountain Range for 2 whole days, but aside from the human settlements that he had spotted around the mountains, he had not found anything else.


    Max was in no hurry, however. After all, as an Ancient Dragon, he could easily live to the ripe old age of 12 thousand years old. 2 or 3 days was but a blink of an eye in the face of his long lifespan.


    Moreover, as a dragon, even a slumber thatsted for several months was considered to be a short nap for him.


    The map had only given a general area in which Max was supposed to conduct his search in. However, with the heavy blizzard that robbed one’s sense of direction impeding him, Max had found it difficult, frustratingly so, to locate the Dark Snow Lotus Crystal that was supposed to treat his sister.


    Without his sense of direction gone, Max could not even determine whether he was going in circles or not.


    Another 2 to 3 hours passed. Max peered forward, only to frown slightly.


    He had located his own footprints.


    From the looks of it, it had not been to long since he was in the area.


    With a p of his powerful wings, Max wasunched into the air.


    From his lofty position in the sky, the snowstorm that gued the region looked even more pronounced.


    Max looked into the distance. There was a vige there.


    Within the darkness of the snowstorm, the vige that was surrounded by lights looked eye-catching. It reminded Max of the stars in the night sky.


    Without a second thought, Max then flew in the direction of the vige.


    The vige was not particrly far from Max. It was only a few kilometers away. For some reason, Marx had not discovered this vige prior to this. The only reason he had spotted it now was due to the lights that had illuminated the vige.


    In less than half a minute, Max had appeared directly above the vige.


    Max’s huge figure slowlynded in the middle of the vige.


    Countless vigers spotted Max’s huge figurending and wetted their pants out of fear. Their legs went soft as they copsed to the ground. With terror shing across their eyes, they shouted, “A DRAGON!!”


    “It’s really a dragon!”


    “Run!”


    “A dragon has arrived to eat us!”


    Many people chose to escape. While they fled, they made sure to alert their fellow vigers of the dragon’s existence. However, the ruckus had upset Max.


    Powerful jolts of electricity churned within his mouth. Following this, Max lifted his head toward the sky and unleashed a powerful ray of lightning into the sky.


    Krakoom!


    A frightening beam of electricity that was 3 meters thick bore through the clouds!


    The sheer power contained within the beam unleashed a powerful shockwave within a 300 meter radius. Many of the tiles on the houses fell off in an instant, and several cracks had formed on the walls of the houses within the st radius.


    Due to Max’s powerful st, the dark clouds that had gathered in the sky were instantly blown away.


    The originally gloomy sky instantly became clear. The glow of the moon had finally prated the atmosphere and illuminated the ground.


    This was a skill that Max had obtained from devouring the terrifyingly powerful Dragonkin, the Lightning Beam.


    Although its magnitude per spell strength was nowhere close to Thunderous Divine Retribution, it did not require much Spell Strength to achieve a great deal of damage.


    Between the two skills, Max preferred Lightning Beam more, as he considered his spell strength too low to make full use of Thunderous Lightning Retribution.


    Max’s frightening attack had momentarily stunned the vigers. They turned their heads to look at the Red Dragon in shock. Fear ran deep within their eyes.


    Through Max’s disy of power, they immediately understood that if Max had so desired it, they would have already been dead. No, they would be worse than dead, they would be disintegrated until not even their ashes remained.


    Realizing that the vigers had finally calmed down, Max slowly opened his mouth to speak with the vigers around him.


    “Bring me the person in charge of your vige. I want to meet them.”


    Max’s words had once again shocked the surrounding vigers.


    They had never met a dragon before. Living in the edge of the continent had kept them isted from the rest of the world most of the time, and thus, the only info they had regarding the dragons hade from the rumors of the rare travelers that had wandered into their vige.


    Thus, the fact that the dragon, Max, was capable of speaking the human tongue had given them a huge fright.


    “You, you… You can speak human tongue!?”


    A viger mustered up his courage and asked Max.


    Max did not intend to waste his breath on these people. He red coldly at the viger.


    The viger felt Max’s intense re and instantly shuddered. Although he was wearing thick clothes, but he felt as if he was not wearing anything. The frigidness of Max’s red had seeped through his skin and chilled him right in his bones.


    He felt as if he was locked in an ice cer, and Max had be the executioner who decided whether he would live or die.


    He was certain that it would take a mere instant for the Red Dragon to kill him.


    Frightened by Max’s gaze, the viger hurriedly shut his mouth.


    The surrounding people were also silent in fear. They dared not speak a single word.


    “You have a minute to bring the leader of this vige to me.”


    “Once that minute passes, you shall experience a dragon’s wrath firsthand.”


    Max looked around at the vigers and said threateningly.


    Upon hearing Max’s words, the vigers trembled.


    They were just a small vige. How could they bear the fury of such a huge dragon?!


    An image of Bohr Vige burning immediately appeared within their minds.


    In less than half a minute, the old vige chief had arrived before Max.


    The old vige chief had just returned with Osse, and he was panting.


    He hurriedly ran to Max, and after taking a deep breath, he finally spoke.


    “Respected Mr. Dragon, May I ask why you have graced Bohr vige with your presence? Is there anything that you need us to do?”


    Max nced at the vige chief and demanded.


    “Give me food, water, and any information you have about this object.”


    Max raised his eyebrows. Following this, a holographic projection[1] appeared before everyone’s eyes.


    It was a crystal-like lotus blooming in the icy world.


    It was the target of Max’s trip, the Dark Snow Lotus Crystal.


    A doubt shed across the eyes of the vige chief when he saw this extremely beautiful snow lotus.


    Osse’s pupils immediately shrunk upon this sight!


    [1] Err, okay
