Chapter 110 War (V)

"Help me—"

"Don't eat me!"

The defeated troops of the "Legion of Honor" have fled to the center of the army, followed by the goblin and kobold troops that are surging like a wave.

"Please, save me!"

The elite soldiers of the Eagle Claws stood still, watching the fleeing soldiers being slaughtered indifferently. They held long spears in their hands and used solid shields to protect themselves in a tight formation.

"attack!"

Robert gave the order.

The horn sounded, and the spear and shield soldiers advanced forward in neat steps. Their movements were as coordinated and orderly as a whole, just like a city wall slowly approaching.

A tide of goblins and kobolds collided with the city wall.

The shields blocked the monsters' attacks, while the spears pierced out from the gaps between the shields, and could even pierce several goblins and ogres with one stab.

The archers behind the spear and shield soldiers drew their bows and arrows. The arrows drew graceful arcs in the air, and arrows rained down, nailing many monsters to the ground.

As expected of an elite force, after just a few minutes, this seemingly endless torrent of monsters had caused heavy casualties, with corpses of goblins and ogres scattered all over the ground.

The spearmen and shield soldiers continued to march with crisp and orderly steps, stepping over the corpses without hesitation.

Faced with such a one-sided battle, even the fearless Dragon Vein Goblins and Gnolls could no longer fight forward and fled in all directions.

"Very good, that's it, crush them!"

"Keep pushing!"

Robert looked at the one-sided situation on the battlefield from afar, and a hint of joy finally appeared on his face.

It seems that the followers of the Burning Nest are no match for the regular army. The only thing they need to worry about now is the brutal and cunning red dragon.

"Forward! Bring the Dragon Killing Crossbow!"

Dozens of strong soldiers pushed the huge crossbow cart, and the wheels made a creaking sound.

More than 20,000 regular troops followed the pace of the "Eagle Claw" phalanx, and in just one day, the coalition forces advanced unimpeded into the Trier Valley.

Apart from clearing out some scattered groups of kobolds and goblins, they did not encounter many battles along the way.

But soon, the coalition forces found out that they were wrong.

Those weak ogres and goblins are merely cannon fodder to delay time, while the real power of the Burning Embers is already ready in the Trier Valley.

"turn out to be."

“This is their real army.”

Robert looked into the distance, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

The entire field of vision was occupied by a huge army of monsters.

"Roar--"

Several huge ground dragon beasts as big as hills were walking, making the ground rumbling. Their bodies were covered with huge pieces of iron armor, like a steel fortress.

Hundreds of two-legged flying dragons circled, glided, and roared in the sky, casting countless mottled and chaotic black shadows on the ground.

The tall and strong ogres roared excitedly with their heads down, their fat shaking, and they shouted "enemy" and "food".

The most conspicuous ogre among them was more than six meters tall, covered with red scales and wearing a patched robe, which looked particularly strange.

The Dragon Vein Hobgoblins formed a tight formation. Those in the front row held standard metal sticks in their hands and were filled with the smell of gunpowder.

The lizardmen held bone spears, animal hide armor and shields, and their vertical pupils emitted faint light, which showed their absolute cruelty towards the enemy.

The Tieflings, known as the "Sons of the Devil", were on high alert under the leadership of the Forsworn, many of whom were filled with hatred for these "Eagle Claws".

In front of them, there were still goblins and kobolds all over the mountains, but these troops had basically achieved dragon veins, and their combat power was not much worse than that of ordinary human soldiers. There were even many kobold warlocks among them. A thousand players were mixed in this terrifying army of monsters. They should have been normal, but they were a little conspicuous, mainly because they didn't look scary enough.

Suddenly, passionate music sounded all around - it was the satyr military band playing pan flutes.

"Roar--"

A distant dragon roar was heard from afar.

I saw a huge and ferocious head appear above the horizon, followed by a pair of broad wings that covered the sky and the sun, and a huge dragon body.

Compared to it, those ground dragon beasts are like mice at your feet.

Robert looked up at the spectacular sight, stunned, and muttered to himself:
"Gods above..."

"How can it be."

He even forgot to ask his men to fire the dragon-hunting crossbow.

The coalition forces were also in an uproar, and the entire army was filled with panic. How could such a monster be defeated by humans?

The red dragon looked down at the coalition forces, with undisguised contempt in its golden vertical pupils.

"Human, I admire your courage."

But unfortunately, your courage was misplaced. You thought you were heroes who had rid the people of harm, but you were just tools used by the vampire duke."

"That's all..."

"Since you are actively seeking war, I will grant you...complete death with fire."

Robert finally reacted and hurriedly ordered: "Dragon Killing Crossbow! Dragon Killing Crossbow! Kill him!"

Even though the soldiers were terrified, they still followed orders and went to the rear to load the giant crossbows.

"and many more!"

Schlaude on the side reminded: "Mr. Marquis, such a huge dragon will not appear in the main material plane. It is an illusion, projecting a pre-made projection into the air. It is a very clever method."

"But this doesn't mean anything. It only means that there is a skilled spellcaster in the Burning Embers Nest, and that the dragon doesn't dare to confront us head-on. I think he should have guessed that we have large dragon-slaying weapons."

"So that's it."

Robert then breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the fear in his heart.

He looked carefully and found that the edge of the dragon was somewhat illusory and transparent, as if there were fluctuations of fire.

"Damn it."

"A cunning dragon."

He suddenly felt ashamed and angry for his previous misconduct, and the hatred in his heart became even stronger.

The giant dragon in the sky turned into a ball of fire and then disappeared, leaving only his last words echoing in people's ears - "I will burn everything."

The information that the dragon was an illusion quickly spread throughout the army, and people's panic was slightly alleviated. After all, they were facing an unknown dragon.

There hasn't been a dragon disaster in the North for hundreds of years, and the last one was the "Glacier Wings".

However, on the hillside, Doro raised his sword and shouted loudly: "Did you hear what the master said? Destroy them completely! For the Burning Nest!"

"For the Burning Nest!"

The monsters also set off a frenzy, cheering, roaring, screaming, and wailing. There was a bit more greed and fanaticism in their eyes as they looked at the coalition forces.

The Kingdom Alliance faced off against the Burning Ashes' followers.

The deadlock was finally broken.

War is about to break out.

　There are still 2000, squeeze myself dry, and explode tomorrow, damn it
