Chapter 94. Snow Garden

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 94. Snow Garden

Time passed, the suns above our heads were getting dimmer. The sky that had been clear turned dark. We spurred our mounts as fast as we could, killing any monsters that got in our way without slowing our movement. We ignored the cold wind that hit our faces and bodies, moving our muscles and unleashing our skills. The monster corpse trails behind us showed our battle remnants. But in the end, we weren't fast enough to reach the next town before sunset.

I knew the next town and village was still far from here and continuing the journey at night was a bad idea. Although Eir and I could illuminate our path with our fire skill. In the dark, our light would only attract the monsters' attention. Luckily, since I planned to take this route from the start without stopping in any town or village, I knew a safe place to spend the night. Although not the best place, at least this place could protect us from monsters and snow.

Half an hour later, a white garden entered our view. That garden was protected by a monster barrier formation. Unlike my Mana Barrier, this barrier only protected the garden from monsters around it.
"We have arrived at our place for the night," I shouted as the last monster in front of me fell after I cut off its head with my sword.

[All enemies have been defeated!]
[You have gained EXP!]

Unfortunately, that didn't mean I could rest since another pack of Snow Mutant Wolf appeared on either side of us. The monster's shaped like a mixture of a werewolf and a giant wolf. The difference was they stand on four legs, unlike a real werewolf and their white fur gave them the perfect camouflage for hunting in snow terrain like this.

[Name: Snow Mutant Wolf]
[Level 51]
[Type: Brute]
[Element: Ice]
[Speed: Normal]
[HP: 765/765]
[Mana: 167/167]

[M.ATK: 146]
[DEF: 135]
[Skills: Deadly Bite, Frost Howl, Speed up]

My voice distracted Eir and the others from the wolves. Their eyes shifted to the garden that looked like a snow globe in the middle of that dangerous area in confusion. Why would a garden be in a place like this?

In the midst of that confusion, Eir recalled something from the Dragon Tribe's history book. Something he had learned a long time ago, he even had almost forgotten about it. Hundreds of years ago, a great war between the tribes occurred in this area. After a long one week battle, the Dragon Tribe won, but a Dragon Tribe's general died as the cost of this war. The late Dragon King finally decided to build a garden with his statue as a form of respect for his sacrifice.

"Prepare for another attack!" I shouted as I realized the monsters around us had closed their distance and were ready to attack us. All my weapons were hovering around me and ready to tear their bodies apart. Luckily those monsters weren't that strong, so I was sure we could take on them easily.

This time my shout returned their attention to the monsters around them.

"I will take care of 5 on the left!" I shouted again as I used my skills.
'Adrenaline Surge, Dragon Armor, Power Boost, Accelerate.'

[Adrenaline Surge has been activated.]
[Dragon Armor has been activated.]
[Power Boost has been activated.]
[Accelerate has been activated.]

[ATK: 360+180+360]
[M.ATK: 360+180+360]
[DEF: 142+71]
[SPD: 142+71+142]
[Time remaining: 14:56]

As if on cue, the wolves lunged straight to attack us. I waved my hand to my side, threw my weapons at them. Meanwhile Eir attacked the monsters on our right with his Thunderbolt. At the same time, Evelina's staff glowed in white and the white light that was coming out from it launched at one of them. A flash of thunder also came out of Jyne's hand.

Seeing our attacks, the monsters used their Speed Up skill and tried to dodge, but I controlled my weapons with my Telekinetic skill to make sure all of them landed on their target. At the same time, my bazooka's bullet landed on the head of one of them and my revolvers' bullets landed on the other.

[You have shot a Snow Mutant Wolf for 760 HP] X2
[You have shot a Snow Mutant Wolf for 765 HP] X2
[You have shot a Snow Mutant Wolf for 761 HP]

The monster's blood, which was in thick red colour, streamed down to the snow below.
[A Snow Mutant Wolf is in heavy bleeding effect.]
[Its HP will decrease by 5 points per second]
[Its speed will decrease by 80%.]

While my other weapons also managed to kill the others.

[You have cut a Snow Mutant Wolf for 762 HP] X2
[You have cut a Snow Mutant Wolf for 767 HP]

All monsters by my side died. Well, these monsters had a lower level than mine, so I could beat them easily. Meanwhile Evelina, Jyne and Eir also managed to kill all the monsters on their sides. As before we did it without stopping or slowing down our speed.

[All enemies have been defeated!]
[Level Up!]
[You are now Level 58. HP +50, Mana + 20, ATK and MATK + 5, DEF and SPD +2]

[HP: 3100/3100] [Mana: 1240/1240]
[ATK: 365] [M.ATK: 365]
[SPD: 144] [DEF: 144]

After the battle ended, it only took us a few minutes before we arrived at the small garden. We pulled the reins to slow our mounts in front of the entrance and entered the garden. The barrier glowed, as well as the crest on our saddle. It was a sign that our Yegauns were not wild monsters and only with the saddle, a monster could enter a monster barrier.

We walked into the garden filled with beautiful snowy flowers, shady white trees neatly arranged in a beautiful formation. Two magic small water fountains, a statue of a Dragon Tribe's General with a dashing pose and some benches on each side were in the middle of it. On the other side, a dome shaped pavilion. It was clear the late dragon king built this place not only for the general's memorial but also as a place for adventures to rest.

"I never thought a place as beautiful as this existed in this kind of harsh environment," Evelina muttered in amazement. Her eyes swept around her. So did the others.

"My ancestors built it as a memorial for the great General Karm. So I remember this place well," I said. This place even had some fruit trees to feed hungry travellers. Those were sweet and sour berry types of fruit that always bear fruit all year round. So at least the travellers had something to eat and carry to fill their stomachs if they ran out of supplies.
