When the sky was about to get dark, everything that could be seen was a dull gray, and the cold air slowly crawled along the bark of the trees and grass blades, making the former army camp gloomy and cold.
Keluoluoli·Tिली is entrenched on the top of the ancient tree, its scales are covered with dew, and its long tail hangs down from the branches and leaves, swaying silently.
She didn't sleep all night. Last night, the scouts reported that Heavy-Metal Dragon were drinking alcohol and singing loudly. Keluoluoli found it strange, so he led a group of companions forward to investigate carefully.
The enemy was indeed singing, and the singing could be faintly heard three miles away.
Seeing this scene, the Green Dragons all laughed at Heavy-Metal Dragon for being so barbaric and primitive. They were still singing around the fire in what age.
But as the desolate and distant singing came again and again, gradually they no longer laughed, because the singing contained ancient will and ambition that had not been wiped out, making Green Dragon people recall bad past events one after another.
Ten thousand years ago, in the era when Chromatic Dragon had not yet risen, Heavy-Metal Dragon was the protagonist of the dragon world, representing the original power of Giant Dragon at the beginning of its birth. They sang With such a war song, he roared towards the earth, fought with Titan, fought with Void Creatures, wiped out one ancient race after another in the long river of time, cracking mountains and cracking the ground, unstoppable.
At that time, Heavy-Metal Dragon was so powerful that when Chromatic Dragon heard the war song, they could only flee in all directions, hiding in demiplane or Underdark to avoid disaster. They accumulated strength in the war between Heavy-Metal Dragon and Metallic Dragon, and did not dare to face their majesty.
"This is a sign that they are about to attack."
Pailun looked out and murmured.
Keluoluoli glanced at the frightened companion, turned around and left without intending to talk to him.
Of course she knew that it was a precursor to the enemy's attack, so she had no time to please the reinforcements Young Dragon, so she organized her troops overnight, inspected every defense, and ordered the soldiers and slaves to prepare for battle. She has been busy until now.
There was a glimmer of light in the sky, and dawn had broken in the east.
There was a sound of membrane wings on the forest canopy, and a Winged Lizard came galloping towards it. The rider lowered his body and raised his arms before he got close, pointing to the hills in the distance.
"Leader, the enemy has finished gathering and is coming in this direction."
Keluoluoli narrowed his eyes, his emerald green pupils flashed, and stared coldly at the end of the horizon.
Human figures gradually became visible in the desolate wilderness, and small black shadows emerged from behind the hills. Heavy-Metal Dragon's soldiers crossed the top of the slope and went down the gentle slope. At the front of the team were the armored Bearfolk and Scalebound, Gnoll was in the middle, and the thin Mountain Goblin fell at the end.
"These miscellaneous soldiers."
Keluoluoli gritted his teeth and sucked. "They really dare to come here to die."
"Send my order!"
Keluoluoli growled, "All Tree Demon move forward and spread out their battle array. Juvenile Dragon and Winged Lizard move closer around me. The deer-headed warlock is ready to cast a spell."
"Yes." He followed the order and left.
This 10,000-man brigade started to move forward. Even before the enemy started to move, Young Dragon Battle Corps had completed the assembly simultaneously. At this time, following the leader's orders, they mobilized smoothly. One Tree Demon moved forward one after another, stretched out their straight bodies, dug the roots under their feet into the ground, and stood ready.
"What do you say Miasmo and Tox?"
Keluoluoli Ask a companion.
Miamos and Tox are two smart Green Dragons. Keluoluoli initially gave them three thousand men and asked them to wait on the flanks, preparing to cut off Heavy-Metal Dragon's retreat. Later, they felt that it was not enough, so they simply handed over Kingdom of Thern's lancers to them, making up a total of five thousand men for Warband.
"They said they could charge at any time."
The companion completed the short-distance transmission and replied.
"Okay, let them see clearly. As soon as the battle begins here, they will immediately attack the enemy's flank without any delay."
Keluoluoli looked around at all Green Dragon: "Young Dragon has arrived, supervising the battle behind us, waiting for the opportunity to take action. This is a must-win war. All of you dragons must obey my orders, and each of you must try your best. The coward will die, and the one who retreats will die!"
Her voice was stern, and she focused on Pailun, who had escaped from the scout team.
"Understood."
Juvenile Dragons all agreed solemnly.
Heavy-Metal Dragon's team began to speed up. A large flag with a black background was raised in the army. The battle flag fluttered in the wind. The dragon's claws on the flag were as bright as fire, showing a fanatical offensive posture and grabbing Warband where Juvenile Dragon was.
As the battle flag was raised, the enemy's army suddenly split to both sides, and a vanguard composed purely of Hatchling Dragon broke out of the formation. They led Wyvern and the Dragon Warlock to form a blade-like array.
Archaic Species Ferrum·Solaxus, one wing leads the way.
The undulating dust waves behind him were like a rolling dragon, carrying thousands of roaring clan warriors and sweeping over the sky.
Keluoluoli Take a deep breath.
She finally understood why these miscellaneous soldiers were able to break through the outer defense line one after another, because those Heavy-Metal Dragon didn't take their own lives seriously at all, and actually launched the assault ahead of their family members.
Chromatic Dragon's battles have always involved sitting in the military formation, commanding soldiers and slaves to strangle each other. After the situation becomes clear, they will then calmly descend on Battlefield and decide the outcome with a decisive attack. If they are unable to do so, they can retreat calmly to ensure survival to the greatest extent.
But Heavy-Metal Dragon is not like that. These Hatchling Dragon of Ashmark Lineage are just as crazy as their dead ancestors.
Keluoluoli was a little surprised, then ecstatic, and immediately ordered, "Go and notify Young Dragon, tell him that the enemy is reckless, all Heavy-Metal Dragon have come to charge, and now is the opportunity to kill them, please come and take action immediately!"
"Yes," a guard took the order and left.
Heavy-Metal Dragon's speed is getting faster and faster, reaching the limit when it is a hundred meters away from the enemy's formation. Emerald Warband's Tree Demon are continuously gathering according to the direction of their breakthrough, creating a more stable defense.
Deer-Headed Spirits's spell attack has arrived, and the dragon warlocks tried their best to prop up the barrier so that Hatchling Dragon can cross the final distance.
Various elements collided above their heads, transforming into a stream of iridescence.
"Kill!"
A hundred meters away passed by in a flash, Ferrum roared in a rare way, and crashed straight into the enemy formation.
"For Ashmark Lineage, for ourselves!"
All Hatchling Dragon followed him and rushed forward, tearing forward, breathing and roaring.
As Hatchling Dragon's first claw fell, the brutal fighting began. Emerald Legion's soldiers swarmed up at the same time. Tree Demon raised the branches, and Deer-Headed Spirits shields and spears connected with each other, forming a high wall that kept arching.
Ferrum gave up the advantage of flying and inserted Hatchling Dragon close to the ground. His body was as bright as silver, but the light of his claws was like a deadly shadow. Tree Demon in front still maintained a swiping posture, and his torso was already cracked.
Deer-Headed Spirits at the back couldn't even see clearly what was happening in front. He could only feel the faint light crossing the line. Then Tree Demon fell over, his shield shattered, and the soldiers in the front fell one after another.
Two Iron Dragon followed closely, shoulder to shoulder, and crashed head-on along the crack left by Ferrum, continuing to advance forward. The Nickel Dragon and Tungsten Dragon in the team took turns roaring and exhaling alternately, sweeping rows of soldiers to the ground.
"Switch places with me!"
Kेलaili roared loudly and pressed up from behind.
He was the slowest, so he fell last in the charge, but now he squeezed forward without fear, using his huge size to crush into the enemy formation and protect his companions behind him.
"Roar!"
Cobalt-Blue Overlord spurted out a thick pulse breath, and Deer-Headed Spirits's armor shattered inch by inch under the heavy pressure, clearing away the surrounding enemy forces for Ferrum: "Don't be too far away from me. As long as I'm not dead, I won't let you fall."
Green Dragon's soldiers moved forward to fill the front line, but they seemed to take the initiative to walk into the mouth of a steel beast that was biting. The front row was just cut open by Ferrum, and then a larger hole was swept out by Kेलaili. Nickel Dragon and Tungsten Dragon took turns to save it, and Iron Dragon was even more brave and fearless of death.
Immediately afterwards, the clan warriors they brought also began to charge into the battle.
The leaders of Tree Demon and Deer-Headed Spirits couldn't see clearly the battle situation. They could only hear the roaring. Every time the sound fell, there would be more corpses lying on the ground in front of them. The Hatchling Dragons roared and ran wildly, and their soldiers were pressed back by them.
"The former army fought hard. Ordinary soldiers can't stop Heavy-Metal Dragon. Do we want to go up and fight?"
A Juvenile Dragon came to Keluoluoli and asked in a deep voice.
"No, don't."
Keluoluoli immediately shook his head. "Let all Tree Demon and Deer-Headed Spirits push forward. Let's retreat a little. Don't be hurt by these wild dragons. Let them roar with all their strength. When these Heavy-Metal Dragon are exhausted, we can easily take their lives."
"Slow down a little."
At the same time, Ferrum was also giving orders.
He gathered Hatchling Dragon because he was worried that they would be injured by Juvenile Dragon, and wanted to concentrate all his efforts on killing Green Dragon. However, he did not expect that his opponents would actively retreat and allow the army to be slaughtered and hacked by them.
He admitted that his judgment was wrong and Chromatic Dragon's thoughts seemed completely different from Heavy-Metal Dragon's.
"We've gained the upper hand."
But Ferrum's heart was racing, and he immediately adjusted. "Since Green Dragon dare not fight against us, then there is no need to take risks. First, maintain physical strength, command the troops to cause damage, and annihilate the enemy's troops."
"Ferrum, look!"
Bido came forward and pointed to the southwest. A group of human cavalry appeared on the flanks of Battlefield, charging towards them under the leadership of two Green Dragon.
At the same time, a heavy horn sound came from the rear, and a vast number of soldiers climbed onto the hills. They were friendly troops originally deployed elsewhere, numbering 5,000. At this time, as Hatchling Dragon advanced, they took the initiative to come to the rescue and joined Battlefield.
They are the blades of the Left-Wing Legion, but they are not really alone. Both sides are constantly adding troops to this place.
The battle begins.
