Others Summon Dragons, I Summon Legendary Knights novel Chapter 440

Chapter 440: The Tide

The next day, Godfrey stood before Dering Woods with Isolde, Isaac, and Neila. Donning his Immortal Armour, a sword strapped to his waist, he stared at the canopy trees. The Dering Woods looked haunted without the sun.

"Are we too early?" Isaac asked.

"No. We’re right on..." Godfrey watched space distort right within the forest, and red mist began to gather. It kept swirling as it grew bigger.

"...time." Godfrey shot a glance at Isaac, then went straight to the gate with large strides. The green gate core from the Creeping Darkness dungeon was returned by a man they didn’t know.

He was too preoccupied with Isolde to remember in time. Luckily, after he woke up, Isolde brought the core, along with two more from the dragons she killed.

Together with the green gate core, it was three, which he had given to the Alchemists. All that remained were seven more.

If he was lucky, earning three more cores from this dungeon might be plausible. Step by step, he was closer to unsealing the reunited Black Order Knights.

His ironclad boots crushed the leaves beneath his feet, leaving faint prints on the soil, but the moment Godfrey went through the gate, he found himself in a desert.

Isaac blocked his eyes from the hot sun. Sand covered most of the desert. Large rocks and jagged stone formations rose from the dunes, the only interruption in the otherwise barren landscape.

Isolde crouched, dug her hand covered in a golden gauntlet into the sand, and brought it out. Sand poured through the gaps of her fingers.

She looked at the gate behind them. "So we’re going to redirect them from the gate and kill them."

"That’s the plan. How good it will be depends on when we see those stag-like monsters. We had an estimate of thirty or forty thousand. We’ve prepared to handle a stampede of fifty thousand monsters, which would be at least Origin Tier. The only variable here might be the number of mini-bosses and the ability of the main boss."

Godfrey responded.

"I hate this place." Neila said under her breath and transformed into a huge spider while Godfrey summoned an Echo of Lament’s horse.

Isolde sat before him, holding the reins of the huge horse.

"It’s strange, isn’t it? Red gates mean an army or a really great threat is about to invade our world, but here there is no army. Just endless sand and stone formations." Her voice flowed into his ears.

"I’m also puzzled."

"You said you saw them storm out of the gate, right?" Isolde asked softly.

"I did."

"You also knew the day it would open. Wait, what if you knew the day and what would happen if they came out, but you don’t know when exactly they came out?!"

Godfrey’s eyebrows creased behind his helmet. "If they were on their way right now, we would have sensed the vibration of a stampede that great. This means we can catch those monsters off guard."

"That’s why I did not summon my dragons. They’re too big and fly too high. Those monsters will see us the moment we see them, giving both sides less than a second to react. If there’s something we haven’t planned for, then we’ll be the ones at a disadvantage."
