While Mofei was immersed in his daydream, he suddenly felt the atmosphere grow strange. This was especially true for Lizrite, who was standing not far in front of him and seemed... tense?
Before he even had a chance to look up, he heard a Dwarf's distinct and deep voice from ahead:
"Welcome to the Solitary Peak Iron Fortress of Eight Peaks Mountain—Tisay—Son of the Crimson Calamity, Flame Steel Dragon David Uthos, and you visiting dragons. A millennium has passed. I, Temur the Oathswearer, am honored to receive you in my capacity as the third Supreme King of Tisay. This must be... our first face-to-face negotiation at such close quarters since the 'Battle of the Long Peak', if I recall correctly."
Mofei wasn't just surprised by what he saw when he looked up; he almost bolted out of the fortress gate then and there—Legendary-level powerhouses! And more than one!
To be precise, from left to right, one, two, three... nine? Nine?!
