Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1876: Be Merciless

Chapter 1876: Be Merciless

Yeah, Drake knew this might've been too ruthless.

But he didn't care at this point.

They had attacked him already before, and they had aimed to kill him several times.

These people were outlaws with long histories of indiscriminate murder and a.s.sault in their lives.

There was not a single point in feeling bad about them at all!

And if anything, if their deaths could feed him more points so they could grow stronger.

Then that was for the better.

The Ice Queen and Lightning Mac continued fighting, evading each other blows.

Explosions of ice and lightning erupting everywhere.

Yet the machines from Gabriel reached them, catching them off-guard.

"What the...?!"

"What are those?!"

The two instantly evaded their swords of light, rapidly firing elemental beams against them,

a couple were taken down, but the rest rapidly reached their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps, attacking them.

CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+

The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps gained countless wounds, rapidly beginning to fall apart, the robots overwhelmed the pair, beginning to continuously bombard them with fast, slas.h.i.+ng blows.

"Where did these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds come from?" Lightning Mac screamed.

"No way... I don't want to die! Wait...! PLEASE WAIT!" screamed the Ice Queen.

Gabriel's creations, however, were ruthless and heed no mercy, ultimately detonating themselves as they blew the two up instantly.

BOOOM! BOOOM!

Short and efficient.

There was no point in prolonging this anymore after all.

As Drake glanced at the system notification, he smiled.

Ding!

"Let's finish this race."

The cosmic road was a dangerous place, gigantic aliens that lived in the vacuum of s.p.a.ce roamed everywhere, mostly in the shape of whales, Whalebugs.

But aside from these aliens, there were ma.s.sive asteroids floating everywhere, proving to be incredibly dangerous for any pa.s.serby without good maneuvering.

As Drake moved towards the golden spire, the audience cheered shocked of all the developments.

At the end, all the promising pilots perished, and Drake's whole family remained alive.

The only survivors, they were already guaranteed to win the first place!

RUMBLE!

Yet, as they admired the view, Drake's family panicked.

Suddenly, not one, but dozens of Whalebugs emerged amidst the asteroids.

"GROOOOHHHH!"

They seemed incredibly mad, despite Whalebugs being, usually, peaceful creatures.

"Why are they so mad?!" asked Benladann.

"I thought these critters were peaceful...?" Miranda asked.

"I thought so as well! And they aren't territorial either, so this is indeed very strange!" the Bullet Demon said. "What could- Huh?!"

CRAAAs.h.!.+

The Whalebugs gave the group no time to waste talking, rus.h.i.+ng towards them by the dozens!

They opened their jaws, swallowing countless meteorites one after another.

"RUN!"

Drake quickly commanded, as the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p hastened its pace, rus.h.i.+ng and using the void

powers to skip through s.p.a.ce.

However, more and more Whalebugs appeared, roaring angrily!

"GROOOOHHHH!"

The audience went insane, despite all, Drake's family challenges were far from over...

Prosciutto and Carpaccio nodded, smiling.

Within their hands, there were special devices they had pressed several b.u.t.tons.

"It seems that Drake is in trouble!"

"Even after taking down the rest of the pilots, he's not going to be given the trophy easily!"

As they cheered the entire audience to scream and cheer for the last pilot, they smiled

maliciously.

"Of course, we have to keep the audience entertained-"

"I hope you don't mind this, Drake... Win, or well, die. Whatever happens, it's good for us,

heheh~!"

Entertainment was entertainment, and someone having the sure way to win would never

make people get excited about it!

There had to be stakes and challenges, or it simply didn't matter anymore.

"Wait, I can detect something..."

Kate noticed several devices on top of the Whalebugs.

"Something?" asked Benladann. "W-What is it, Kate?"

"They are like huge spiders piercing their skin and controlling their nervous systems!" Kate

said. "They're being manipulated to attack us!"

"Can you hack them, sister?" Benladra asked.

"I think I can... wait a bit," Kate said. "Daddy, we need to stop for that though...! DO you trust

me?"

"Kate..." Drake remained in silence for a moment.

But then he smiled, nodding.

"Of course I trust you."

He petted her head, as Kate's silver eyes glowed brightly.

"Thank you daddy."

The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p stopped, the people screamed in horror as dozens of Whalebugs went to crush

it once and for all!

"Oh no! Drake is going to die?!"

"The Whalebugs! They're coming for him!"

The two robots giggled, only for them to suddenly become paralyzed.

FLUOs.h.!.+

Out of nowhere, a powerful program took over their bodies across the machines controlling

the Whalebugs.

"It seems it was these robots' fault all along..."

And at the same time, in front of the entire audience, the Whalebugs stopped rus.h.i.+ng towards

Drake's s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.

They looked confused, and quickly swam through the vacuum, disappearing from sight...
