Although the Dwarves tanks failed to break through the battle line, their parallel advance successfully created an opening in the insectoid formation, allowing subsequent infantry to charge into the insectoid lines, plunging the battlefield into chaos once again. ✊🍟 ✌♧

"Tarecgosa, how many Incendiary Bomb do we have left? Never mind, have your companions bring them over!" Zul'ra swung his spear, knocking away a group of charging Stinger, and shouted at Tarecgosa, who was clearing out another group of Stinger with a breath attack from above. But then he gave up asking and told the dragons to bring all the remaining Incendiary Bomb.

Zul'ra couldn't remember how many Incendiary Bomb she had the dragons drop, but there weren't many. In any case, having the remaining dragons bring them along should be enough. Apart from the fifteen dragons at the front lines who never returned, Tarecgosa by her side, none of the other dragons were injured.

In response to Zul'ra's words, Tarecgosa roared, and the dragonkin who had retreated after dropping bombs flew back from the sky. Zul'ra also took to the sky once more, following the dragons as they flew across the battlefield. As the war continued, the insectoids' limited air power was exhausted, and lacking effective anti-aircraft capabilities, they could fly sideways.

Zul'ra flew through the sky with the dragons, counting the bombs and the number of dragons. She saw that there were twenty-eight dragons of various colors, including Tarecgosa. This number seemed a bit off, but seventeen of the dragons had bombs on their hind claws.

Zul'ra suppressed her doubts about the number of dragons and followed the dragon horde over the Scarab Wall. She saw Kor'kron riding Worg, Raptor, and Kodo, along with Huntress riding black panthers and human knights on horseback, already charging into the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj.

Just as Zul'ra launched green flares and began a general offensive against the swarm, the cavalry led by Kor'kron, Huntress, and Bolvar on both flanks, along with supporting mortars, Goblins Shredder, and a small number of infantry, also launched their attack. It was they who broke through the Scarab Wall that allowed the Dwarves tanks to successfully breach the swarm outside.

Kor'kron and his cavalry charged into the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, while the human infantry quickly cleared the battlefield outside. Although the allied cavalry had entered Ahn'Qiraj, Zul'ra could tell that the cavalry could no longer advance and were unable to complete their sweep.

"Come this way." After observing the situation below, Zul'ra waved his hands towards the dragon horde in the sky; he was about to provide an assist.

The dragons in the sky were very obedient. After entering the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, they raised their bodies, and Tarecgosa considerately came over and supported Zul'ra on her back, carrying him to a higher place as well.

Zul'ra didn't know why the dragons were rising, but she didn't refuse. Standing on Tarecgosa's back, she used her binoculars to look down at the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj and guided the dragons to fly over the cavalry.

Ahn'Qiraj was not built by the insectoids, but is Titans ruin used to imprison the Old Gods C'Thun. The obsidian Constructs Anubisath were Titans- made guards, only corrupted.

Zul'ra scanned the entire Ahn'Qiraj sky with his telescope, leading the dragon horde over the Allied forces. He calculated the distance to the nearest Allied troops in the distance, pointed to a building from which swarms of insects were constantly emerging, and ordered the dragons to drop an Incendiary Bomb.

The exploding Incendiary Bomb stirred up the insect swarm in the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj. After Zul'ra dropped another Incendiary Bomb, he led the dragons towards the densely populated area of the insect swarm, dropping one here and two there, bringing warmth to the cold, desolate city ruins. Under the warmth of the flames, the insectoids cheered and jumped for joy.

Just as Zul'ra and his dragon horde were dropping eight Incendiary Bomb and preparing to continue flying into the eastern ruins, a Bronze Dragons clutching an Incendiary Bomb suddenly roared, then broke away from the group and swooped down, throwing the Incendiary Bomb into the air.

"What's going on?" Zul'ra looked at the Bronze Dragons that had suddenly started bombing, and couldn't help but scan it with her binoculars. She saw Anubisath, which was three times larger than the other constructs and whose body was like blue crystal, standing there. It took Incendiary Bomb from the Bronze Dragons and was then set ablaze like a torch.

"This is..." Zul'ra stared wide-eyed at the blue Anubisath in the flames. This must be the legendary boss!

"Throw another one, one more is enough." Zul'ra could sense that the blue Anubisath was unusual, so she had the dragon add another Incendiary Bomb. The Anubisath was engulfed in flames, and then it was hit on the head by another incendiary Incendiary Bomb. The flames of the explosion shot straight into the sky, scorching the belly of the Red Dragonflight that threw the bomb, and the Anubisath disintegrated in the explosion.

"Forward, forward, keep going." Zul'ra looked at the burning Constructs and waved for the dragons to continue advancing. However, the dragons without bombs, seeing the shattered Anubisath, no longer obeyed his commands and swooped down to clear the insect swarms in the city with their dragon breath. Fortunately, the seven dragons with bombs and Tarecgosa still obeyed his commands.

Zul'ra observed the dragons' strange behavior in the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj and sensed something unusual. It was probably because the Constructs Anubisath had posed a serious threat to the flying dragons, so the dragons had taken to high altitudes before dealing with it, and then resumed low-altitude combat after it was defeated.

These dragons are such a joke. You're all relaxed after just picking up one of those guys. What will you do if a few more Constructs like that pop out of the ruins? Zul'ra grumbled at the dragons as she rode Tarecgosa, leading seven dragon-branded bombers deep into the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj.

Amidst the shattered ruins, Zul'ra discovered a location where the entire building had been reconstructed using purplish-red soil, resembling a beehive or anthill, somewhat similar to the Zerg hives in Silithus. It stood out conspicuously among the ruins, so without hesitation, Zul'ra ordered the dragon to drop three Incendiary Bomb.

The scattering flames blasted the entire insect hive apart, revealing countless burning Stinger and gatherers beneath, as well as some giant insects resembling centipedes. Upon seeing this, Zul'ra couldn't help but summon wind and fire elementals, using rising air currents to swirl the flames and bring warmth to the hive.

Like their companions before them, the three dragons threw away their Incendiary Bomb and flew off again, swooping down into the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj to slaughter the insectoids. With the help of the Incendiary Bomb alone, the allied forces were no match for the many insectoids still swarming there.

Zul'ra searched around for a bit more and found two more purplish-red nests of different sizes. After providing them with warmth, the entire Ahn'Qiraj was ablaze with flames. With the support of dragons and Incendiary Bomb, the allied forces began to sweep through the ruins of this Titans relic.
