Inside the Great Altar of Istalia, the red dragon lying on the throne slowly stood up.

Cassius lowered his head, stared at the still tense battle situation in the magic image, and chuckled.

"hehe.
It allows players to gain experience and also lets the empire's army go through a test of blood and fire.

It is time to end this long war."

The red dragon twisted its head, stretched its neck, spread its broad wings, and flexed its strong muscles, causing its huge body to emit a crisp "crunching" sound.

Cassius whispered, "Launch a counterattack."

In an instant, his voice seemed to have traveled thousands of kilometers, passed through the obstruction of numerous mountains, and reached the frontline command post in the southern part of the empire.

Accompanied by roaring thunder, the blue dragons swept across the earth, bringing dazzling lightning to the demons.

Fierce arcs of electricity flowed among the demons, and tiny explosions were heard. Groups of demons turned black and thick smoke came out of their bodies.

However, the demon's attack has not stopped. Dozens of demon-hunting spiders and hundreds of giant bull demons gathered, and the extremely terrifying slaughter demon was summoned.

"Boom! Boom!"

A dull sound was heard, and the earth was wailing and shaking under the feet of these huge demons.

"Roar--"

From the depths of the surging demonic tide came waves of chaotic roars, as if blending the screams and wails of countless creatures.

On the back of the dozens of meters tall abyss monster made from the corpses of various demons, a red-skinned demon was waving a flaming whip.

"People of the Great Abyss, it's time to end this fun. The Abyss Legion will make these mortals realize that—

My own insignificance and ignorance!"

"Tear them apart!"

"Destroy their country! Kill their people!"

"I want to taste blood!"

Under the suppression of high-ranking demons, countless cowardly demons and original demons gathered together instinctively and crowded on the battlefield like black waves.

And in the sky, the dark wings of the Abyss Dragon Beast had blocked out the sunlight, casting mottled shadows on the ground.

Although the blue dragons of the Faria family are powerful, there are only a few billion adult blue dragons, and they are still somewhat insignificant in front of this terrifying and overwhelming demonic tide.

"Wozhi.
What bad luck, I ran into a plot and was killed. It seems that I will probably die this time."

Lonely Ruxue looked up at the group of demons pressing towards him and couldn't help but sigh.

"Wait, look behind you!"

Behind him came the exclamations of his teammates, and not only that, but also a passionate melody, which seemed to be the victory song of the empire.

"Look! Not only the blue dragon, all the troops are dispatched!"

"What the hell?"

"It's a major counterattack!"

Lonely Ruxue turned around and was stunned by the scene in front of her.

"Om-"

The whistle blew, the iron gates in the defense fortresses all opened, and one steel monster after another galloped across the land carrying surging steam.

A group of heavily armored terrain dragon beasts were marching behind, making dull roars. They walked slowly like moving hills, and every step made the ground tremble.

Hobgoblins, tieflings, and human infantry armed with rifles marched among the tanks and dragon beasts.

On the back of the huge dragon beast, Doro held a huge axe of blood and fire, pointed it at the demon commander in the distance, and roared: "Warriors of the invincible, glorious and great Majesty Cassius, destroy them!"

"The Dragon Lord is above everything!"

Amid the stirring music, a high-pitched war roar rang out.

The dragon-loving holy warriors were seen holding giant shields engraved with the emblem of burning ashes, wearing heavy armor with red and gold interlaced, and marching in a tight square formation.

"Destroy the demons, and the glory goes to the Dragon Lord!"

Anthony, the Knight of Judgment at the front, shouted loudly, raised the spear in his hand, and the red flag fluttered in the air.

——The flag also had an exquisite pattern of dragon claws and giant shields sewn on it. That was the emblem of the Dragon Oath Temple.

Chaotic roars filled the sky as thousands of wyverns, chimeras, and fire dragons flapped their wings, gathering into a red torrent that cast mottled shadows and occupied most of the sky.

The most elite dragon knights are in the center.

Their formation was compact, with hundreds of flying dragons tightly combined together, as if they were one, like a huge red dragon.

Alger, who firmly held the position of "leader", raised the Everburning Greatsword again and roared, "For the Empire! For His Majesty Cassius!
Redscale Conqueror, prepare to charge!"

"Ow—"

Another oppressive roar came from the crowded group of dragons.

Those two-legged flying dragons and fire dragons immediately felt the pressure from their bloodline and obediently made way.

A huge white figure appeared in the surging red tide - it was the white dragon Tinija.

This white dragon with the bloodline of ancestral dragons has grown to more than 20 meters long, comparable to the ancient white dragons. At this moment, she is flapping her wings majestically, looking at the devil with ferocious eyes.

Tinia had long since made up her mind to prove herself in front of her master.

Bailong wants to prove with her actions that she is the most powerful follower under her master's command!

"You bastards from the abyss, I'm going to freeze you into ice! And then tear you apart!"

On the east and west sides of the sky above the battlefield, the hurriedly arrived Melward Silver Dragons and Faria Blue Dragons all raised their heads and roared.

On the southern continent, these two families are important forces of metal dragons and five-colored dragons respectively, but now facing a powerful enemy, they have to put aside their past conflicts and fight side by side temporarily.

"Tank Corps, Ground Drake Corps, Imperial Infantry Corps, Burning Dragon Group, Red Scale Conqueror, Dragon Paladin
My goodness, we are out here in full force!"

Some players looked at the majestic army behind them and couldn't help but sigh.

At the very end of the team, the Empire's magic corps was suspended in mid-air, with spells shining brightly and robes of various colors fluttering in the air.

Next to the magic army, several fire portals opened out of thin air, and more than a dozen Dragon Contract Warlocks came with flowing flames and sparks, their light golden eyes flickering.

Misha, the "Daughter of Dragon Fire", was suspended high in the sky. She looked into the distance, staring at the hideous figure on the back of the abyss monster.

——She felt the entanglement of the threads of fate.

Her long red hair danced in the air, and threads of flame surrounded her tall body.

She suddenly raised her head, and huge dragon wings suddenly grew behind her.

"I finally waited for you."

"Leo Bosque."

Misha clenched her teeth, her beautiful light golden eyes flickered with fierce fire, and endless murderous intent was revealed in the depths of her pupils.

And in the center of the magic army, surrounded by many mages, a huge figure appeared out of thin air.

A cloak made of different robes wrapped around his slightly bloated body, and a necklace made of nine skulls was wrapped around his neck.

A huge dragon-headed scepter appeared in the hand shaped like a dragon claw, extremely strong magical spiritual pressure surrounded it, and a confident smile appeared on the ugly face.

——That was the Prime Minister of the Empire and the most powerful spellcaster in the Empire, the Dragon Vein Ogre Trump.

"It's the Prime Minister!"

"Casius, he's going to do it himself!"

After Trump appeared, the imperial soldiers on the ground and the surrounding players exclaimed again. After all, in recent years, the ogre prime minister has been busy with government affairs and has rarely been in public. Except for those important ceremonies, Trump rarely appeared in front of the public, let alone cast spells in person.

Trump opened his mouth slowly, invisible magic fluctuations spread out, and his calm voice instantly spread throughout the battlefield.

"Everyone——

In front of us are the dirty and despicable demons who want to destroy the empire, and behind us is our common home, the glorious and great civilization, the Burning Empire.

We are the people under the protection of His Majesty Cassius's wings, the followers and warriors of the great red dragon.
Just now, His Majesty personally issued an order, and the Empire's counterattack has begun!"

"For the Empire!"

"For His Majesty Cassius!"

The soldiers of the empire immediately burst into wild shouts, the flying dragons in the sky stretched their necks and roared, and the ground dragon beasts on the ground trampled on the rocks.

The Satyr military band struck up its tunes, beating its drums rhythmically.

"What the hell? It's on fire!"

“What a grand occasion!”

"Counterattack!"

"Istalia is behind us. We have no way to retreat. Get ready to sacrifice your heart for the empire!"

"For the Empire! For His Majesty Cassius! Aaaaaaaaa!"

Even the players were infected by the warm atmosphere and were so excited that they burst into tears.

Under this passionate melody, millions of players present cheered round after round, like an endless tide.

The Empire's army is overwhelming, and its power is no less than that of the Abyss Legion on the opposite side.

Players frantically rushed to the front line of the battlefield, ready to truly experience this battle that made their blood boil - but they mostly played the role of cannon fodder for the opposing cowards and inferior demons.

There was a lot of noise and dust was flying.

"Fire! Fire—"

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

Accompanied by a deafening roar, dozens of steam tanks opened fire at the same time under the commander's hoarse command.

Not only the main gun was terrifyingly powerful, but its secondary guns and machine guns were also firing at full power, with countless artillery fire and bullets pouring out indiscriminately.

The flames and thick smoke engulfed the demons in the front, and large charred pits appeared on the ground. Hundreds of thousands of low-level demons didn't even have the chance to wail before they lost their lives in an instant.

"Abyss Legion! Charge!"

"These mortal weapons won't last long. Once you get close, they'll be vulnerable!"

High-ranking demons such as the Soul Judge Demon and the Six-Armed Snake Demon roared and screamed out orders.

Despite such tragic casualties, the demons still continued to surge forward, fearing neither death nor fatigue.

The huge bull demon was at the front, making dull roars, and like a moving fortress, it withstood the fierce firepower.

The cowards and inferior demons took the opportunity to rush onto the high ground, using their numerical advantage to overwhelm the players on the front line, and even gnawed the players until only bones were left.

The steam tanks bombarded almost non-stop, and many giant bull demons were hit by extremely brutal armor-piercing shells and killed on the spot.

But there were also rays from demon-hunting spiders and heavy boulders hurled by giant bull demons attacking those "iron lumps", destroying the steam tanks that had exhausted their magical defenses.

"Ow—"

The Abyss Draco swooped down from the sky and clung to the top of a steam tank, trying to lift up the armor on top of it.

However, several two-legged flying dragons surrounded it, spewing out blazing flames, constantly biting with their mouths and scratching with their sharp claws, and soon caused the abyss dragon beast to fall from the sky.

In the most intense aerial battlefield, mottled black clouds and red torrents intertwined and rubbed against each other, and abyss dragon beasts, wyverns, and fire dragons continued to fall from the sky.

"Seize air superiority. As long as we have air superiority, we can bomb those demons!"

"Dragon Roar Charge——"

Alger brandished the Everburning Greatsword and led the Red Scale Conquerors to climb high into the sky and launch a charge.

Accompanied by a terrifying roar, the red torrent suddenly poured down and directly broke through the air blockade of the Abyss Legion.

Dozens of abyss dragon beasts fell from the sky one after another and crashed to the ground.

However, in the distance, an extremely huge and deformed monster was suspended in the sky.

The monster stretched out its black tentacles covered in mucus, instantly rolled up several Red Scale Conquerors, and stuffed them into its mouth full of ring-shaped fangs.

"creak, creak"

The creepy crisp sound echoed in the sky.

Alger rode the Dragon Vein Giant Eagle, and with his superb riding skills, he suddenly stopped in the air, then suddenly climbed up, narrowly avoiding the attack of the tentacles.

However, the tentacle continued to wave, wrapping around the Red Scale Conqueror beside Alger, and the washing disk on it released a paralyzing venom, rendering the wyvern unable to move.

Mantou was entangled by the tentacles and exclaimed on the way to the mouthparts: "Fuck, what the hell is this!"

"what--"

With a howl, Mantou and his mount were sucked into the meat grinder-like mouth and turned into food for the monster.

Alger was organizing the remaining troops in the sky, looking down at those terrifying deformed monsters with a serious expression: "Everyone, be careful. These monsters are very powerful. If you are not careful, you will lose your life."

"Maybe. We need some support."

"Boom!"

Along with a sound that shook the sky, a bolt of lightning struck from the sky and hit the abyss monster directly, burning its twisted body into black.

I saw blue dragons flapping their wings and rushing over from afar. They roared and spit out dazzling breath of lightning.

The deformed monsters tried to stretch out their tentacles to wrap around them, but the blue dragons roared, scratched them constantly, and even tore the tentacles off with their sharp teeth.

"Boom!"

There was another thunder, and lightning as thick as a bowl came down, leaving a large charred hole on the monster's skull.

"Ow—"

The abyss monster wailed and slowly fell from the sky, eventually killing countless low-level demons on the ground.

Seeing tentacles attacking from behind and wrapping around the wings of a blue dragon, Alger swooped down on the Dragon Eagle and cut off the twisting tentacles with one sword.

Then, he calmly ordered: "Spread out and support those blue dragons!"

"Yes, leader!"

"Ow—"

Two-legged dragons circled in the sky, looking for an opportunity to pounce on the heads of the abyss monsters and knock down these deformed stitched monsters.

"boom!"

A huge explosion occurred in the sky, and a deformed monster was smashed to death in mid-air and fell to the ground.

I saw blazing fire meteors falling from the sky, attacking the abyss monsters in the sky and crashing into the demon army on the ground.

The mages of the Imperial Magic Corps all raised their staffs and constructed a huge and complex spell model. Above them, spell lights flickered continuously.

The demon warlocks released terrible spells from the abyss. Toxic smoke, bloody venom, and crazy balls of light filled the battlefield, causing considerable casualties to the soldiers of the empire.

But with the advance of steam tanks and ground dragon beasts, the Empire's front line is slowly advancing. (End of this chapter)
