First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 312

Chapter 312: Found the Base

Seris’s expression visibly brightened, appreciating Orion’s sincere interest. Her amber eyes gleamed proudly as she began detailing the Felian Kingdom’s hierarchy and strengths. "Our capital city, Valoria, is the heart of our kingdom. It’s heavily fortified and prosperous, with trade routes connecting across our territories. The royal family has ruled wisely and firmly for countless generations."

’Not so wisely if the war is ongoing...’ Orion inwardly thought.

She continued confidently, "Our armies are structured into clear hierarchies. Most army generals have reached Tier 5, with commanders holding power at Tier 6. The absolute strongest powerhouses, the guardians and a select few elders, have reached Tier 7. They protect our kingdom in times of great peril, ensuring our survival against any major threats."

Orion inwardly released a subtle sigh of relief, satisfied that the world’s power level aligned with their initial expectations. A world capped primarily at Tier 7 would be challenging enough without becoming overwhelmingly dangerous.

Before Orion could further question her, a soft buzzing sounded from his storage ring. Recognizing it instantly, Orion retrieved a communication token swiftly, holding it firmly as Elias’s anxious voice resonated clearly.

"The carriage stopped, Orion! They’ve reached their secret hideout, it’s near the forest ruins. There are more Tigerkin children here, I can see at least another dozen."

Orion’s gaze instantly sharpened, determination blazing in his eyes. He replied swiftly and decisively, his tone firm and authoritative, "Stay hidden and don’t expose yourself, Elias. We’ll be there shortly."

"But I can hand—"

But before he could finish speaking, Orion cut off the communication and immediately leaned towards the carriage’s front opening.

Raising his voice, he shouted precise coordinates provided by Elias, urgency clear in every syllable, "Driver, quickly steer towards the southeast, towards the forest ruins!"

The driver, clearly an experienced warrior of the Felian Kingdom, responded immediately, urging the horses into a swift gallop. The carriage jolted and sped forward, the occupants bracing themselves instinctively for the imminent confrontation ahead.

Seris, her earlier anxiety now replaced with fierce determination, locked eyes with Orion, silently grateful and respectful of his swift leadership.

Arya, Emilia, and Nyss exchanged quiet, determined glances, their postures stiffening slightly in preparation for their first real-life battle as a group.

Orion addressed them calmly yet firmly, his voice steady and reassuring. "Everyone, prepare yourselves. Elias has found their hideout, but we can’t take any chances. We must not let any of the children be harmed."

Arya nodded resolutely, her violet eyes cold yet determined, "We’re ready, Brother Orion."

The scene shifted swiftly, and soon Orion’s carriage drew to a stop just beyond sight of the bandits’ hideout.

The forest was dense here, with tall, autumnal trees casting soft golden-red hues onto the forest floor. Fallen leaves scattered quietly, being stepped on beneath the boots of Orion’s group as they swiftly descended from the carriage.

Orion stood firmly, his dual-colored eyes blazing with focus as he carefully surveyed the surroundings.

Arya stepped gracefully to his right, determination etched across her face. Emilia gently brushed a lock of her hair behind her ear, her expression serene but fierce. Nyss quietly tightened her grip on her massive scythe, her frosty gaze colder than usual.

Sylvia, Felira, and Kale calmly approached from the second carriage, their demeanor equally composed but brimming with readiness for battle.

The two mature Tigerkin women, Seris and her companion, along with their guards, moved to follow instinctively, but Orion quickly raised a hand, stopping them.

"You should stay here," Orion stated firmly but respectfully. "Let us handle this."

Seris hesitated visibly, her amber eyes filled with concern. "But—"

Before she could finish protesting, Sylvia calmly stepped forward. Her serene eyes narrowed slightly, releasing just a fraction of her powerful aura.

A sudden, heavy pressure enveloped Seris and the guards, forcing them to instantly pause and instinctively step backward, overwhelmed.
