Taigo roared in the sky, and his roar descended from the sky, echoing repeatedly in the fortress. Storm Divine Chosen and two Adult Dragon flew around him, each casting spells, firmly confining the king of Iron Dragon among the clouds.

On the earth, Veloa·Ember Scar is fighting another adult Blue Dragon, while Leighton is attacking two Black Dragon and their undead army.

Ashmark Lineage's main force was completely blocked. Even if the whole army attacked, they would have no advantage in terms of strength.

As for the Storm Family, they still have four Young Dragon rounding up Valyria. The cloud-like Juvenile Dragon is monitoring all directions. The Blue Dragon is surrounded like an iron barrel, and the defense lines spread out layer by layer are like chains.

"The storm has arrived, and the family will surely win this war."

Prior to this, Ashmark Lineage's strategy had indeed achieved great success. Blue Dragon had suffered heavy losses in order to clear out various areas, and even lost important members like Boyas and Yuge.

But as Heavy-Metal Dragon came out, the situation immediately reversed, and all the problems were swept away.

It is Blue Dragon's strategy to surround young Iron Dragon and eliminate all enemy forces that come for reinforcements. Storm Family is eager for this decisive battle, and their soldiers are also excited and vow to completely destroy Ashmark Lineage in this battle.

The air on Battlefield is so cold that it is almost stagnant, and the barrier rises, forming a strict forbidden air zone in the western area of the fortress. Even if Taigo falls from the sky, it will never be able to escape easily.

Ferrum abandoned the Wyvern troops and approached Battlefield with the elites of Jackal Warband and Plateau Warband, Wyvern Cavalry is no longer useful in the offensive and defensive battle in the restricted air, and can only fight Storm Army and Sickle Locust outside the field, providing as much support as possible with long-range weapons.

Jelierion led the troops to stop next to Ferrum, and they looked at the scars on each other's bodies.

"Then, except Ladon, all Hatchling Dragon are here."

Jelierion said, "Hidorivi and I still have two thousand soldiers in our hands, and we will give them all to your command."

"Iron Dragon and Cobalt Dragon assemble and are responsible for breaking the formation."

Ferrum nodded and issued the order. Nurturer was trapped in a tight siege. He had no intention of chatting or worrying about other things. "There is no special command. We have to move forward until we see mother."

Jelierion's body is as big as Kेलaili, but his injuries are lighter than Kेलaili, so he stood at the front first. He is the son of Taigo and Veloa. He shoulders the glory of Ashmark Lineage and does not need Cobalt-Blue Overlord to provide him with cover.

Hatchling Dragon quickly formed a team, arranged closely behind Iron Dragon and Cobalt Dragon, and assembled into a sharp formation. Now that we are all here, there is no need to say many words. The word "mother" is enough to express everything.

"Attack!" Ferrum growled.

The building complex in the western district had been destroyed in previous repeated attacks and defenses, leaving ruins as far as the eye could see. The enemy scouts deployed on the periphery quickly discovered the assembled Dragon Corps, immediately sent a message and reported it, and then called in a torrential spell attack.

Dragon Corps's charge had just begun, and dozens of flashes of light landed from overhead at the same moment.

What they are going to attack this time is the main force of the Storm Family. Elite warriors and spell casters are emerging in endless streams in the defense line. The fighting here is far more brutal than that of Battlefield.

Afterglow guided the Lesser Dragons to stop and stay where they were to cast spells, providing shelter for the charging Dragon Corps. It was absolutely impossible to strangle the main force without spellcasters. No matter what warrior or dragon, they would probably die soon after losing their protection.

Storm Army is quickly gathering behind the defense line. The opponent is a group of dragons, leading a large number of warriors and retinues, charging in groups. Perhaps Young Dragon does not dare to face it alone, and no one can take it lightly.

The troops began to accelerate as they marched. Their breaths squeezed and collided, which repeatedly strengthened the bloodiness and ferocity of the dragons. The Hatchling Dragons roared and ran wildly. They jumped over a distance of nearly a hundred meters and rushed straight into the enemy's defense line.

The gathered young man Blue Dragon collided head-on with them.

Previously on Wilds Campaign's main Battlefield, the Hatchling Dragons were fiercely hunted by the young boy Blue Dragon, but this time it was different. All the powerful people in the dragon group were here, and Archaic Species was also here. They were not afraid and could not be afraid.

The united Iron Dragon and Cobalt Dragon were like forged steel chariots, and all obstacles collapsed in front of them.

The formation was broken, and the brutal strangulation immediately began.

"Move forward!"

Jelierion roared, "For Ashmark Lineage, there is no retreat for us!"

"Kill!" Hidorivi followed and roared.

The troops advanced quickly, but the enemy troops were also constantly pressing up from both sides, trying to cut off their retreat and complete the encirclement of this Dragon Corps.

"Ferrum Boss, we stay here to support you."

Nickel Dragon, the only remaining member of the family, said that he would stay with the Tungsten Dragons.

If the enemy forces complete the encirclement, all Hatchling Dragon will die. Enough soldiers must stay on the attack path to hold on. If Valyria can be rescued, they will also retreat along this road.

"Go ahead, Ferrum, I won't be able to protect myself if I go forward, and I can't hold you back."

Moqi said that fighting side by side with Nili who activated the "Dulling" ability, Chrome Dragon in Ochre Valley had been killed and injured, and now only Ferrum and the two of them were left.

More and more Hatchling Dragon were forced to stay and fight with the enemies besieging them from both sides. In the end, only Ferrum and his troops were left.

Ferrum looked up at the old barracks area ahead, as if actual smoke was rolling toward the sky. Valyria was not dead yet, and all the Ember Scar troops were trying to advance towards that place.

"Mother..."

The scenes of the past were still vivid in his mind. Ferrum recalled the first figure he saw when he broke out of his shell. He recalled that Valyria severely punished him, quietly replaced stronger tendons for him to train, made an exception and allowed him to enter the mine, fed him Mithril and magic potion, told Hatchling Dragon that he did not need to worry about his family, and secretly hoped that they would grow up quickly.

Ferrum took a deep breath, thinking of her majesty, silence and love, and then realized how frightened he was at this moment.

"Wait for me."

Ferrum withdrew his gaze and moved forward with all his strength: "Blood Frenzy--"

He had really been fighting all day, and a short rest and respite in the legion hall was far from enough to relieve Ferrum's fatigue and injuries. But at this moment, new power had begun to wash over his body, and the Dragon's Heart was forced by will, giving him more strength and vitality.

Ferrum rushed forward amidst the overwhelming shouts of killing, leaving only broken armor and flying stumps behind him.

"Elder Dragon Heart" is never an empty concept. It is a real source of power, connecting the will and thoughts of dragons. As Ferrum desperately kills, the dragon's heart beats more intensely, and the ferocity in the blood vessels continues to gather, turning into a beast, roaring through his body.

Because Ferrum went too deep, the samurai of the Storm Family finally saw an opportunity.

They are all dragonborn, with the blood of Chromatic Dragon flowing in their bodies. Each of them is strong and brave. At this time, they have formed a small-scale siege on Chrome Dragon.

Following the command, all the soldiers jumped and slashed at the same time, raising their sharp iron knives to kill Archaic Species on the spot.

Ferrum's body suddenly exploded, like Bone Blossom in full bloom, killing all the approaching warriors in mid-air. Along with the oncoming young man Blue Dragon, his claws penetrated the skull.

In this fight to the death regardless of the cost or consequences, he was finally promoted to Tenth-Level Disaster, with power comparable to Adolescent Dragon.

The excited Primordial Beast is still howling inside Ferrum's body. His membrane wings are rapidly completing their evolution. Ghost-Iron Element continues to be included in the bloodline sequence, and the deep darkness gradually pours into Ferrum's brain.

"Kill--"

He made a hoarse voice that was completely different from before.

Ferrum was galloping close to the ground, and the complete movements could hardly be seen between the ups and downs. At this moment, he finally had a new weapon. The membrane wings rotated with his body and cut across, like an open giant blade.

The first line of enemy soldiers had just raised their shields, and he had already torn the entire shield array apart, cutting off shields, spears, and armored bodies. The well-trained warriors could only regroup while retreating.

"Hook and rope ready!"

"Thunder Beast is ready to ride!"

After a brief period of confusion, Storm Army finally hatched a new offensive. The soldiers threw special hooks in the open space, trapping Ferrum's body, and called in Thunder Beast cavalry. Three people lined up to launch a short-distance charge.

Ferrum no longer dodges, and stands on the spot with his overlapping membrane wings blocking him. He is collided by the strong and armored Thunder Beast. He is pushed back continuously by the charging cavalry, and his claw toes plow rugged ravines on the ground.

However, the spears of the cavalry struck down like iron blades touching fine steel. Their attacks made a clanging sound and produced fierce sparks, but they could never penetrate Chrome Dragon's membrane wings.

Ferrum moved his vertical eyes and looked at the broken blades.

He used his Bone Growth ability to break free from the hook, flew forward again, rolled his body in the air, and cut open the cavalrymen together with the Thunder Beast beneath them.

Blood flowers bloomed one after another. Finally, some people couldn't bear the fear and gave up attack and defense. The neat line slowly cracked under this massacre, and more and more warriors began to avoid the sharp edge of Ferrum.

Even the Ferrum warriors were a little frightened. Although they knew that their lord was a Archaic Species True Dragon, and his power was far beyond that of an ordinary Hatchling Dragon, they still couldn't help but feel frightened when they saw him mowing grass-like slaughter, cutting in half those warriors who were as brave as themselves.

Lightning swept across like a frenzy, covering the road ahead, roaring loudly, Ferrum pressed its claws to stop, panting like a beast.

He had to stop because there was an almost insurmountable obstacle ahead.

Blue Dragon's troops slowly separated to both sides, and the real Blue Dragon emerged from the crowd. A Young Dragon led its guards into Battlefield, and behind it was the West District Old Barracks with smoke rolling in.
