ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 370 Part 1

ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 370: Dragon King, the Black Dragon Part 1

It was no all-purpose, but at least it could read the wind currents decently.

It was omniscient, but it would never forget the bitter taste of defeat.

It was not a God, but it was born when the Gods still walked the surface of this Earth…… It has witnessed many calamities and disasters, and the most recent one was the defeat of one of its “comrades” by the three insects, a whole lot of insignificant dirt and one monster.

「HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! RED! RED! RED! OH, THE EVIL RED! THE NAUSEATING RED THAT ONCE OVERCOME MY PEOPLE AND DISFIGURED THEM HORRIBLY! TO THINK THAT THOSE LOWLY INSECTS WOULD BEST YOU WITH SUCH FEW NUMBERS! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!」

There is no damage to its internal structure. Up until now it was simply resting in order to recover from its fatigue. And just as its physical strength was recovering, the golden king laughed genuinely, expression its joy with its whole body.

「I KNOW, I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND…… THAT ACCURSED DOG AND ITS WRETCHED ALLY WEISSASH…… MU? OR WAS IT A SNAKE? OR MAYBE AN OCTOPUS? OH WELL, IT DOES NOT REALLY MATTER HERE. KUKUKUKU. I KNEW IT…… IT’S THE HERO…… ONLY THE HERO CAN REALLY OVERCOME ME……」

This creature once managed to drive the Black Dragon Noirlind away almost succeeding in killing it, as well as exterminating some of the Red Menace in the past, although just temporarily…… Saying that, it may not sound all that impressive to begin with, but the fact that it managed to do it on its own, without the help of others was more than insane enough. To put things into perspective, no Pioneer in this game would be even close to achieving one of the above mentioned things on their own.

That is why this creature belonged to one of the seven strongest species in the entire world, and received the esteemed title of the Unique Monster. Its name was “Siegwurm the Heavenly Emperor”. And just as its name would imply, the Golden Dragon King ruling over the heavens was laughing at what he just happened to witness.

「OOOHH, I SEE NOW THAT IT WAS THE RIGHT CHOICE, LETTING THOSE DRAGON LIVE…… OF COURSE, IT IS UNEXPECTED THAT SOME OF THEM DIED ON THEIR OWN, BUT IT IS THANKS TO THEM THAT HUMANS CAN ASCEND HIGHER. IT IS THANKS TO THEM THAT THEY WILL BE ABLE TO REACH ME ONE DAY.」

When it comes to the Heavenly Emperor, it’s past was riddled with regrets, its present is filled with hope, and it has high hopes for the future that is to come.

–––– People, oh the chosen Heroes of this world! Seek to overcome my trials! Only then you will be able to reach beyond the frost of stars and to overcome the point of origin!

However, there is one thing that the Golden beast did not know.

That in the depths of the stagnant defeat, one unexpected encounter has already been made.

「WOLFGANG GROUP CHAT」

Pencil Warrior: Right, so because of our dear Sanraku, who just happened to drop a huge bomb completely out of nowhere and then disappear like a meteor, we are now in some really deep shit.

Katsu: So, there are fish people in this game? First time I ever heard about it……

Rust: Well, I knew about it for quite some time now.

Mold: Same here. I mean, it is only because we happened to encounter an NPC called Alva, who happened to help us overcome the Unique Scenario EX at the time when we were doing it……

Kyogoku: I’m a little bit sad to be left out of the loop like that, but what can you do? For now I must stay here, and I have no way of going to the new continent.

Pencil Warrior: I mean, you just need to wait until the New World Researh Vessel comes back into the old continent. Then you can just hop aboard and come here, right?

Pencil Warrior: But that being said, it won’t probably happen anytime soon, so maybe you will have to wait as long as a full month before being able to rejoin us.

Kyogoku: Oh well, it’s not like I don’t have anything else to do in the meantime. There is an event in Bakumatsu Online that’s going to be held soon, so I wanted to make some preparations for that.

Katsu: I have heard through the grapevine that this is going to be a death-match, isn’t it? I see that the Bakumatsu Online never changes. As much of a bloodied battlefield now as it was back then, huh?

Kyogoku: And it is exactly this bloodied battlefield where my soul belongs. I’d rather be there than anywhere else. So you can bet you sweet ass that I’m not missing an event like that!

Pencil Warrior: It seems to be as if the things in Bakumatsu Online are finally starting to kick into its end game. It will be interesting to see what will come out of it……

Pencil Warrior: But please remember, Kyogoku-chan. It is important to have a blast in the games that you love, but I don’t want you to get out of shape. So please remember to play ShanFro regularly so that you won’t lose your edge.

Sanraku: Good morning, you people.

Kyogoku: Don’t worry about it. After all, nothing out there can beat ShanFro in terms of quality. So I am going to show up from time to time, rest assured. It would be a waste otherwise.

Katsu: Dude, it’s already afternoon.

Rust: Sanraku, Nephilim Hollow is receiving an update soon in preparation for the Nephilim Hollow 2! So you’d better come here from time to time so I can turn you into a punching bag!

Kyogoku: And of course, you wouldn’t happen to miss the event that is going to be held in Bakumatsu Online soon, right? I heard from Senmei-san that you are the mysterious dual wielder that only makes an appearance during the events, right?

Sanraku: Nah, that’s no longer the case for me. So I don’t know where you got that information from, but it could not be more wrong.

Sanraku: Besides, I managed to obtain a real treasure from one of my acquaintances. A legendary Phantom Shitty Game!

Katsu: Hoo? (Expectation)

Pencil Warrior: Hey, hey, hey, hey! You came here just so you could tell us that?

Pencil Warrior: We belong to the same guild together, you it would not kill you to spill the beans here, right?

Sanraku: that reaction of yours certainly warms my heart.

Pencil Warrior: Gah, I would have said the same thing if I were in your shoes! Which is why this makes it even more frustrating!

Katsu: So? What kind of shitty game is it?

Sanraku: Kazagumo PresiDen.

Katsu: Whoa, seriously?

Kyogoku: And what’s that supposed to be?

Katsu: A certain phantom shitty game that is only available in package versions. It only managed to sell about three thousand copies, and the company that developed it went bankrupt after its president ran away God knows where while taking the rest of the money from the company’s account.

Sanraku: And even if there are still copies out there that have broken or scratched box, it is still worth a small fortune.

Pencil Warrior: But seriously now, could you at least give us some intel about that raid monster you have fought?

Sanraku: The name is Great Red Devourer.

Sanraku: The maximum number of participants is forty five.

Sanraku: The battle arena is the village of the People of the Forest, the Elves, but I have no idea if its coordinates are fixed or not.

Sanraku: I don’t know the exact conditions for the boss to appear, but I guess that the amount of your entourage must exceed a a certain number.

Sanraku: In my case, it was using the body of the deceased Blue Dragon Eldranza as its main body, but in reality it is a colony of smaller cells, something like a monster colony or maybe a locust horde?

Sanraku: The first form is simple enough, you just whack at it. But it can eat NPCs and players and monsters from all around itself to power itself up, so you’d best watch out for that.

Katsu: Whoa there, dude! Wait just a god damn minute!
