Chapter 1762 1762. Cliff Climbers



"That\'s Remey up there." Gil spotted Remey and her group rushing ahead of them. They were clearly moving as fast as possible to reach the main force that was waiting for them to make the final move up the mountain.

"You all look like you were successful. Especially since I can hear the fighting. Onyx and Midnight said they heard it a few minutes before we started." Remey was slightly out of breath since she and the mages had rushed as fast as possible to avoid the young wyverns flocking to the trap. She had seen more than she imagined would be showing up which truly drove the wyvern issue home in her mind.

"Says the group that has such high pitched screeching coming from their trap. I assume that you attracted a lot of the youngest wyverns? We managed to attract some of the older wyverns. Not adults but still larger." Walker knew that they would have been able to battle the wyverns he saw. They were not old enough to end their lives but together they would have caused a lot of issues.

"Brother, the wyverns we saw were very small. Sister was bigger than a lot of them." With OPnyx\'s comparison, Walker could understand how the trap size was very valuable here.

"Onyx is right, plus the crag is full of them. They were even attacking and trying to eat each other. I don\'t think the poison will be important until later when a larger chunk of the wyverns are already dead from their own fighting." Remey wanted to say that the wyverns were better monsters who would not defeat each other. Unfortunately, they had already seen proof that the wyverns would normally attack and eat their own siblings just to get the food they needed.

"The group should be just ahead. We have the best chance at getting to the higher peaks now. The angels have mapped out where they could see the ruins. Just beyond the cloudline, there should be our target." Walker snapped back to the problem at hand. They had to get to the ruins atop the mountains.

"Then we push to it." Remey and Gil looked like they were about to start a race. The mages behind Remey were not as enthused as they could be since they had barely managed to keep up with her, Midnight, and Onyx on the way to this point.

While this was the only result they had hoped for, the traps set had a growing battle on each. The young wyverns going after one another was definitely enough to gain the attention of the older wyverns and soon became a slightly larger fight. The trap where the mountain lion was soon became absolute chaos. It was such an ordeal that an adult wyvern arrived shortly after Walker and Gil\'s group had left.

"Alice, the healer will be closer to the front to maintain pace. Make sure the life mages know to use speed and climbing related buffs. Whatever might help us get the group up that cliff there." Su had taken the main lead of things. The royal dragons had heard the noises and told her that the group would be together again any moment.

"We can do that. The angels said they will use ropes and spikes to help." Since the group had stopped to evaluate the route up, Alice and Su had not been idle. That would be foolish. Instead, they had been preparing for when the rest got to them. That way they could climb as efficiently as possible.

The result had been the angels spreading their climbing knowledge. Su and Alice had learned the angels who couldn\'t fly because of wyverns and dangerous wings around the mountains had become adept climbers. Even The Fel empire archangels had to learn to climb since there were a large number of cliffs as the mountains ended across the border.

"Mordant, your dragonkin were a very good help getting us out of there. I didn\'t realize that they could help me boost the shadow wrapping skill that I learned from Midnight." Walker\'s sudden appearance was only seen by the royal dragons. He was still using the shadow wrapping skill but this time he had more assistance to cover the rest of their group from Midnight and Onyx.

"I am glad to hear that. We were just preparing to climb here. Ventus said she would be controlling the wind to protect the angels and us as we climb. It has been a while since we climbed a mountain in these forms. It should be a little fun before the battle." Mordant showed a soft smile that definitely didn\'t match the atmosphere around him.

"That\'s because the mountains are our home. Dragons live in mountains originally. Climbing one in any form feels right. Even for Rise and I." Ventus spoke to back Mordant up and even Rise showed some approval meaning that this must just be a general dragon thing. But to be fair, it was easy to see that Midnight was excited too.

Climbing a mountain was the same as conquering it in a way. Especially for a dragon that claimed territory through battle and domination. This was like testing their strength and power as a dragon against the world or nature itself. "You know what? Yes. Let\'s see what we can do and what skills I will learn about climbing. Terron, I am going to copy from you since you are an earth dragon and can easily make the rocks of mountains your own." Walker\'s sudden enthusiasm was contagious.please visit

Not only did the angels and Genesis soldiers hear this, but the rest of the dragons did as well. The desire to follow their path was more than what they wanted. They had not wanted to accept Walker at first. Now after learning about genesis, Walker, and the general state of the world, they wanted to become major players in the grand scheme of it all. Knowing that Walker was going to learn more about dragons and how they move meant he was becoming closer to the nature dragon they wanted. The nature dragon they had grown up learning about.

Without waiting for any approval, Walker saw that three teams of angels had already started to climb the cliff in front of them. It was slow but steady. The important part was though, that they were linking ropes and stabbing spikes of metal they had brought in to the cliff as they climbed.

"I hate to say this, but the earth mages should climb up next. We can do more." Walker started to follow the rope up and was using his earth sculpting skill as he did so. The spokes that he had jabbed in to the stone cliff face were being tightened while Walker ensured that every grip he took became a perfect handle.

Beside him, the dragons had started to climb as well. They were just as enthusiastic as their dragonkin were behind them. Their claws tore in to the cliff face easily allowing them a safe grip to pull themselves up. If they were night fighting gravity, then it would be a simple thing to say that this was an easy activity for the dragon in general.

As Walker used the high earth sculpting skill to stay ahead and match where the angels had made it, he heard the earth mages making more handholds behind them. The combined effort would make their travels much easier as time went on. Especially when it came to exploring these ruins in the future. The earth mages could make a path that was safer for anyone researching the area. It would also help the dragonkin if they decided to settle down here after better relationships with the empires were formed.

"Walker, can you make a resting spot? We have some people that look like they need a solid place." Gil and Remey were right with Su behind him. They saw that some of the soldiers had never been this high and were clutching the ropes much more tightly than needed.

Without hesitation, Walker let his hands sink in to the cliffside. He pulled at the earth mana to create a small ledge where someone could rest their legs and breath. It was a solid spot that would let everyone calm their nerves. The downside was that this was barely a fifth of the way up. That meant he had a long way of making ledges all the way up. Eventually, he imagined there would be a full set of stairs carved in to the side of the cliff.

What made the most interesting sight was that Onyx was climbing the cliff alone. He was using his full size to wrap and clump up the side of the cliff. His body\'s muscles were able to grab on and slither up. It was a very odd but impressive work of nature. Not many monsters could do such things.
