Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 125: The Mysterious Figures

Chapter 125: The Mysterious Figures

-----
An elf with long blonde hair and crimson eyes glanced at the scene displayed to him from within a large holographic screen.
In such a battle, a giant dragon of azure colors coated in beautiful and shiny ice scales fought desperately against one of his creations, a titanic humanoid machine with enough power to defeat Rank 3 Peak Stage Cultivators with moderate ease…
Yet this dragon… somehow defeated it and survived without any problems?!
"It is all thanks to that abnormal Mana regeneration, its good magic, and… that regeneration, which seemed endless…" said the elf, squinting his eyes as he watched the entire recording slowly, analyzing everything he could.
And then he suddenly realized something he hadn't noticed before… the dragon was protecting the other Unique Skill user, the ice giant girl… this entire time he has been protecting her!
He was using some strange invisible force that wasn't projected in cameras, which was of course Drake's Phantom Body.
"Is it protecting it through some sort of Telekinesis? Or maybe its own wind magic? Hm… Further investigation on that specimen would be needed… And I didn't get to see anything that the girl had to offer, sadly…" he sighed, closing his eyes and walking away.
Despite being an elf closer to nature, he was within an immense highly technological underground structure, where many other Elves walked around, assessing things through computers, repairing mechs, or creating more of them by the use of gigantic technological 3D printers.
These immense structures were fueled by thousands of mana cores and through the use of special materials, they instantly printed several materials needed to craft more equipment.
"That War Machine was very costly… And it is gone like nothing! Well, I was ready to have losses the moment I decided to attempt to capture them with my equipment which I had placed on standby there but… Still, it is rather impressive and frustrating that this dragon managed to destroy it so easily…" he sighed.
The elf man walked through the entire facility as he was led into what seemed to be a large area where many people were inside, probably captive, as they were wearing strange magic collars that restricted what they could do.
He glanced them through the transparent window as they were being used to make experiments, mostly the scientist here were seeing how far their special abilities could go…
"How are things going?" he asked.
"It seems that these two subjects are Unique Skill users of Rank A, sir," said the elf wearing a lab coat.
"I see. Useful enough… Put it on military training and brainwash them asap," said the elf man.
"Yes sir."
The elf man smiled, as his crimson-red eyes flashed with an eerie light, as he saw the young boy and girl being hurriedly carried away from the place, their eyes seemed concerned and fearful.
"Hmph… Unique Skill users are blessed with such fantastical powers, why are they so insecure? They should rejoice themselves… Seeing these faces only fills me with disgusts. They have a chance to change the world, yet they are fearful to use their powers as they should… Don't worry, I will make sure to use it well for you…" he thought, as he walked away.
The man quickly walked through a long corridor, taking an elevator that led to the surface, where he was suddenly greeted by a large shrine made of fine wood, he walked out of the elevator as it was quickly covered by a moss-covered floor made of stone bricks.
He walked outside of the empty shrine and was greeted by the beautiful scenery of one of the large cities of the Region of Alfheim.
Large trees that went hundreds of meters into the skies, connected by many branches covered by houses constructed by the elves, elves walking as if nothing down below, living their lives leisurely, it seemed to be a world completely apart from what was happening underground… Yet many of these people were well aware of what was happening there.
The crimson-eyed elf man took a walk through the streets made of gigantic tree branches, reaching into a large palace, where a few people greeted him. Unlike him, they were not elves.
There were humans, pale-white, crimson-eyed people exuding a blood-like aura, dwarves, and even giants.
"You're finally here. We have been waiting for you for some time now. What were you even doing now?" asked one of the humans, a man with spiky black hair and slightly squinted eyes. He had a giant blade on his back and seemed rather confident in carrying it around anywhere he went.
"Probably something fishy, I bet…" said a beautiful woman, she could be said to resemble an elf, but her beauty was even higher than them. Her skin was also even paler, almost like candle wax. Her eyes gleamed crimson red as her pointy ears and long crimson-red hair gave her a glamorous look, which went well with her red and black dress and her long crimson-red heels. Her aura seemed particularly dangerous compared to the rest here.
"Don't worry, that time was not wasted without a reason. I have finally found another two more Unique Skills users," said the elf man, quickly sitting in a wooden seat as an elf butler served him green tea.
"Two more? Just how many of them have come here in the last 30 years?!" asked the human man.
"Well, we are still discovering what is truly bringing them here. My research still has no results, but in the meantime, bringing reincarnating him should still be the major priority," said the elf man.
"And using Unique Skills is the best way to bring him back, right? I guessed so…" said the crimson-red-haired pale-skinned woman.
"Indeed. Unique Skills can defy Fate, after all, they're our greatest tool against the Yggdrasil's Will. All of you share the same purpose, right? This is why we had gathered in the ancient eras, and that is why we are still gathering every 100 years…" said the elf man.
"Hm, more or less. Although it is quite surprising how our personalities have diverged," said the giant present, with long silvery-white hair and white skin.
"Well, it was all so we could explore different paths and master them," said the dwarf.
"Indeed… And let me tell you… that perhaps we might have found something interesting… A certain dragon" said the elf man.
However, before the elf man was to speak, he was interrupted by an elf.
"Lord Greenwood! It's her… That Princess from the Oberon Nation again!"
"Hm? The one with infinite mana?" asked the elf.
"Yes, she has sneaked inside one of our facilities within the North Region, and is trying to rescue the captives!" said the elf.
"Ready the War Machines within that facility. I suppose that Alma is still not giving up… From all these Unique Skill users, she is the most annoying… Oberon, you're still annoying us even after your death, you stubborn righteous bastard…" sighed the elf man.
"Oberon's descendant ended being a Unique Skill user… what irony," laughed the crimson-haired woman.
"Well, she's purposedly targeting smaller and less guarded facilities, she's probably not strong enough to come here… We should eliminate her as soon as possible," said the human.
"I agree… Shall we go?" asked the giant.
"No… She's gone already," sighed the elf man.
"That fast?!" asked the human.
