Chapter 521 - The Dragon Slayer Battalion

Phoenix was to engage with the dragons while Jay pursued after the God. Phoenix had still had his breath held for he wanted his own relatives trapped on the island to be safe and secure and for that he cannot let the dragons reach the Island because fighting there would only raze the island to the ground. Causing even more destruction.

At first the plan was supposed to be taken slowly and securely. Setting a base, winning over locals, flooding the markets, Infiltration, militarization and finally execution.

But due to time constraints Jay had jumped from base setting to execution.

He tried to flood the markets with money but in the long term this would have done more harm than good.

That's why instead of being invited by the God. He infiltrated his domain and caught him red handed in the act.

Phoenix had received the video and once he saw the archangel. He thought what was the archangel doing on the island. And the angel also never revealed any affiliation.

His wings were white which meant he was not a fallen angel.

Who's colour had changed just because they opposed God and formed their own faction.

They are currently allied with the Foundation. But they act independently on their own.

The Foundation are vary of the fallen. But have extended help time and time again to them.

The spear was kept in a case and was rapidly delivered to Phoenix. For use on arrival Phoenix opened the case and witnessed the gruesome yet elegant form of the spear.

Phoenix :

This spear is a living weapon.

Phoenix touched the weapon and he himself found within its inner world in a void of darkness the only sense he could feel that he was standing on something.

Phoenix :

This is the inner world of the spear. It's testing me.

For Phoenix this phenomenon was nothing new as when he welded the Bow of Matra he was similarly dragged into the inner world of the bow. And in the world there was a complete celestial bow that Sita welded sitting right before him.

Phoenix when he took it in his hand it slipped out of his hand and fell to the ground Perplexed about this mishap Phoenix tried to pick it up but the bow wouldn't budge from his hands.

It was very heavy.

Phoenix pondered about what the bow wanted from him.

He tried hard to pick it but failed.

And he felt a hand on his shoulder as he saw an unknown warrior who used his strength to pick up the bow and broke it with his own hands. The strings of the bow were still attached but the body was spilt Into two pieces.

The warrior who's face Phoenix couldn't see gave him a command.

"Take the Weapon and prove your worth"

After that Phoenix's memory becomes faint. But in the end he obtains half of the bow. While the other half was filled with a silver. Thus Phoenix could only use the bow's power to some capacity.

And just like that he had entered into another world. Where standing before him were the blood demon the ice dragon a DNA horde of demons and heavenly demon that were slain and absorbed by the spear.

Phoenix :

This is the inner world of the spear. I think I know what I need to do. Burn this place to the ground.

After a few minutes the Phoenix could also now use the spear.

Phoenix :

Soldier get me the hover boots.

Soldier :

The hover boots we have can't fly up to their altitude.

Phoenix in his mind thought that he has taken up the task to take care of the dragons so now he can't just back out. Even after taking up the spear.

Phoenix then saw a missile launcher . And he had a spark of intelligence.

Phoenix :

Load up one blank missile.

Phoenix was going to try something that he could never dream of being reckless. Phoenix who was upright always believed in proper planning, positioning and procedures.

But for the first time he was going to try something reckless.

And non tactful.

But by living with Jay he was influenced by his own reckless actions and developed an itch to try it.

The itch begun with a simple question 'Why would anyone do this'. He saw Jay blowing himself up just to reach new heights and still be intact. He saw him fighting many times.

He saw him even holding the chains of the Monster of the chrysalis together even though he was so dizzy that he the contents of his stomach came out.

Phoenix :

Actually make it four. One for each idiot on board.

And summon the dragon slayer unit.

Of course someone who's nature is to be well mannered, being upright and righteous and being a leader first and foremost wouldn't step in shit firstly despite others say that the leader is the first one to step in shit.

After reaching a high level of significance.

Phoenix : feeling proud of his preparations

Feels good to be well prepared.

Introducing the Dragon Slayer Unit.

A force especially made of clans who task is to train and become dragon slayer. Many Dragon Slayer clans allied with the Immortals send their men to train at the Foundation where they learn everything from anatomy and morphology of dragons to commander ing about how to take down a dragon, even learning magic and different strategies on how to tackle a dragon.

As well as memorizing a list of the classes and hierarchy of dragons.

And from here the soldiers who pass out have many different career options such as researchers who put their heart and souls into researching dragons, developing weapons, survey conductors, being drafted into the Foundation's military where the lowest level grunt carries an rpg with them.

They could even rise to the position of commanders.

(Small side story :

Once upon a time the dragon hunters hunted a high level dragon for causing unnecessary destruction to the lands.

And instead of leaving it's body to rot they salvaged it's body. Obtaining dragon bones, wings, meat and blood

And dragon shit

But the dragon blood was one of a kind material as dragons rarely needed to be hunted. Thus making its blood a rarity.

And this blood was then distributed to the ones who hunted the dragon, it was auctioned as a rarity, it was given to some dragon slayer clans as an offering to their God,

And among the heads themselves from which there was a researcher who was studying demons and while studying there was an intern who accidently dropped some dragon blood on the demon's flesh. And what happened was history

The end)

The dragon slayer battalion a battalion of highly best of best dragon slayers. Which are according to military standards. Highly disciplined, highly skilled and highly intelligent warriors who have high trust values in the army.

And they are serving Lord Phoenix under this mission.

Physically the squad consists of both men and women who spent years learning how to fight dragons.

For women who had 50 percent less upper body strength due to physiological deviations. Women are more focused towards working with research teams and communications to ensure effective communications. The poison was made by a women named Jwala.

Suited up in power armor tailored for them specifically in order to reduce damage, boost physical strength upto 65 times. Allow access of extra mana via mana cube. Weapons tailored to fight flying dragons such as ballista equipment Ed with scale piercing arrows. But their real name is scale removal arrows because that is what it really does.

When shot the it releases a drug which when comes in contact with the skin I underneath causing severe inflammation and expansion of skin from the point of contact and causes massive bloating of the affected area.

The skin can change its shape like expanding force but the scales cannot thus they become disfigured and either fall off or pierce the skin of the dragon itself or become loosened and easily removable.

But the drug cannot be launched by anything that generates heat such a launchers or guns because it is very thermo labile (degrades or is affected by heat) as well as it is easily affected by the outer atmosphere and is easily spoiled when in contact with air for long periods of time. Thus for safety it is kept in a safe environment.

And that's why the ballista. The dragon squad set up a ballista and loaded the arrows in 15 seconds and took another 10 seconds to wound up the string to generate enough tension.

Soldier :

Need permission to fire.

The Roaring moon who was in the sky came down swiftly and just stopped near them.

Roaring moon :

Your puny human toys don't work on us. (Looks at the loaded arrows). Another puny toy. Hahhhhhh.

Tearing moon:

I have lost my arm brother these humans are neither puny nor foolish. That human manipulated me into striking him and doing so I lost my arm.

The dragon slayer unit soldier went up to Phoenix.

Soldier :

Sir we would need a half a minute more.

Phoenix :

Consider it done.

Phoenix lifted up his bow and shot a flaming arrow. Right towards the Roaring Moon's face and it exploded burning all the hair. Phoenix shot one more arrow and this time it split into 25 arrows which exploded all around Dragon's body not even making a scratch. Just like a light show. And In the midst of the arrows. The ballista fired the arrow and hit the Roaring Moon and the drug was released which fell on the scales and inside the skin which caused a terrible expansion as if the insides were being pushed outwards by an invisible force.

Roaring moon :

Sister is right you humans need to die.

Tearing Moon :

Brother! This is an medicine which loosens our scales.

Roaring moon felt pain and it caused him to lash out as he used his tail to break the ship. And he lashed his tail on the main ships.

Phoenix :

Pull up the shields now.

Soldier :

Yes sir.

And just like the barriered capital a barrier covered the ship and even with the barrier the ship sunk into the water.

But the ship was intact due to the barrier and due to the buoyancy of the ship it was flung outside the water.

Phoenix :

I would have preferred to fly in mainland. But my options are limited.

Soldier :

Due to the dragons whip our output has fallen by 25 percent.

Tearing Moon :

You humans caused my brother to suffer. Now suffer as well.

From the second claw or hand the dragon spawned a little bit lightning bolt and threw it towards Phoenix's ship.

Phoenix :

Big mistake.

The lightning bolt when hit the ship instead of causing terrible destruction it was instead absorbed by the ship and distributed to the entire ship. The instruments who were left uncharged were fully charged and the rest of the lightning was circumwented and through an out putter once again converted into an electric bolt and dispensed outside.

Dragon slayer unit :

You were right my Lord. The dragons did use lightning magic. Now our equipment are overcharged.

My Lord allow us to show the might of our Dragon Slayer Battalion.

Phoenix :

Very well. Deploy the dragon slayer battalion.
