The three low-yield nuclear bombs were purchased by Logo from the Gonis City-State.

These types of restricted weapons are strictly controlled by various countries, but as long as the money is there, everything is negotiable.

Planet Oklo is not Blue Star, so nuclear weapons are not considered strategic weapons. They can be bought with more money, but they must be used with caution, otherwise it could easily lead to diplomatic disputes.

In fact, for life forms at the higher levels of High-Rank Transcendent, as long as they are not in the epicenter of a nuclear explosion, there is no danger to their lives.

Legendary beings are even less afraid of nuclear bombs; relying on their Sanctuary, they will not suffer any harm even if they are located in the center of a nuclear blast.

The truly terrifying aspect of nuclear weapons lies in their terrifying destructive power against ordinary life forms, as well as low- and Mid-Rank Transcendent.

It's an excellent tool for clearing out crowds.

Just like now, three nuclear missiles, and the whole world is at peace.

Of the nearly 100,000 True Dragon Clan members who were originally left, 60,000 to 70,000 disappeared in the blink of an eye. A significant portion of the clan members could not even be found, as they were all vaporized.

Those that survived were also severely affected by the light radiation. Transcendent life forms fared better, as their life magnetic fields were strong enough to resist the effects of radiation.

Those kobolds who had not reached the Transcendent Rank suffered the most; the severe radiation tormented them to the point of unbearable pain, and their shrill screams echoed across the battlefield.

The large army of dependents was essentially rendered useless.

Only a few elite members remained.

The two True Dragon, witnessing all this, were stunned and stopped their attack.

They never expected that the Three-Eyed People would directly use a nuclear weapon to launch an attack.

"Damn it, this is a violation of the war treaty!" Even the usually calm Gold Dragon Chris couldn't hold back anymore; the losses were simply too great.

Even if he doesn't care much about his clan, if you look at it from another perspective, it's all money.

Dragon Clan are extremely greedy, and such a loss would be enough to make the two True Dragon extremely anxious.

"Heh, I apologize to both gentlemen, but the Underdark is not subject to the restrictions of any war treaty, and we have the right to use nuclear weapons," Wellington said nonchalantly, adding, "You may also use nuclear weapons."

That last sentence left the two dragons speechless.

The conflict between the Dragon Clan, the Crimson Alliance, and the Gonis City-State is immense. While other races could afford to buy miniature or small nuclear bombs...

The True Dragon Clan... can't even buy a nuclear bomb casing.

"Damn it, I hate technological civilization!" Topaz Dragon Wesker roared.

After his initial rage, the Gold Dragon quickly calmed down, glanced back at his remaining followers, and decided to continue the attack.

"There's still a chance. The city walls have been breached, leaving only that stone mountain. Although our cannon fodder has been almost entirely wiped out, our high-end combat strength hasn't suffered significant losses..."

Thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning. Gold Dragon Chris suddenly spread his wings and flew into the sky, muttering indistinct Dragon Language. A huge magic circle, three or four hundred meters wide, shimmering with brilliant golden light, descended into the Underdark.

"Dragon's Claw!"

Boom!!

As the Gold Dragon chanted, a gigantic dragon claw, seemingly crafted from pure gold, emerged from the center of the magic circle and pressed down upon the Mage tower from above.

The immense, overwhelming power of the sky weighed heavily on everyone's hearts, like a colossal boulder.

The Gold Dragon, going all out, saw its combat power surge to its limit. It was no longer the meticulously planned attack of before, but instead, it spared no expense in expending its own Magical Energy.

"He's getting anxious!"

Despite this terrifying offensive, Wellington remained calm and composed.

Having lost a large number of cannon fodder, it's wishful thinking for the enemy to try and wear us down.

Mage who possess Mage towers excel at waging wars of attrition.

Thump!!

Like a dragon claw cast in pure gold, it pressed straight down on the Mage tower, and the two sides clashed with Magical Energy.

The Mage Tower is actually at a disadvantage.

But as time went on, Wellington, with his abundant magic crystal reserves, remained completely unperturbed despite the Elemental Pool's ceaseless operation.

Finally, the dragon claw collapsed!

Gold Dragon Chris's expression also became completely serious; he sensed a deadly threat!

While the vanguard assault team was locked in fierce combat with the two True Dragon and True Dragon retinues, the battle on the main battlefield was equally intense.

Monica is a Dark Elf warrior with dark, smooth skin, a voluptuous figure, wearing leather armor, wielding a longsword, and carrying a magic bow.

Her original mission was to participate in the war to attack Topaz Dragon and open up a passage from the Underdark to the outside world.

Unlike the Basilisk, the Dark Elf Clan came from the outside world and were trapped in the Underdark about ten thousand years ago.

Generations have been searching for a way to leave this place.

Topaz Dragon's appearance gave the Dark Elf a huge surprise. After repelling the enemy's attack, he tricked the Basilisk Clan into launching a counterattack.

However, before the counterattack could begin, Logo led the Gendaya People to invade from the other side.

Monica was then urgently transferred to form another border defense force.

Inside the trench, several female Dark Elf were discussing something in hushed tones, and Monica pricked up her ears to listen.

"We don't know what our opponent is like this time. According to the scouts, they seem to be human."

"Humans? I've never seen them before. According to historical records, aren't they our slaves?"

"You're talking about ordinary humans. The humans who entered the Underdark this time seem to be Transcendent race, and they're equipped with a lot of technological weapons. Otherwise, we wouldn't have needed to dig trenches."

"Enemy attack!"

The discussion among the Dark Elf warriors was interrupted by a piercing alarm.

Monica quickly poked her head out of the trench to observe the situation outside, but the next moment, her pupils contracted sharply.

What did she see?

Various types of bombs whistled past, and red, white, and yellow flashes suddenly erupted between heaven and earth.

The sky was dark and shrouded in black smoke. The mournful sound of wind breaking through the air was like the howl of Devils of Hell.

The vegetation was ignited by the explosion's flames, which were extinguished immediately by a new round of artillery fire just as they shot into the sky.

The hard rock was blasted into thick powder by the continuous barrage of shells.

The underground bunkers and caves built on the front lines were transformed into scorching furnaces by the extreme heat generated by an unknown bomb (thermobaric weapon). The areas that were once densely populated with soldiers are now nothing but blackened charcoal and shards of broken bones...

As the Gendaya forces opened fire, the usually gloomy and obscure underground world now blossomed with orange-red flowers, a dazzling display of death.
