Chapter 554: Fierce Battle with the Dragon Beast Army! (8000)
“Boom!”
The violent collision shook the entire city wall.
The barely detectable cracks made Angela relax.
Even though the Land Dragon was huge and powerful, with a strength of more than 25 points, it still could not cause devastating damage to the city wall that had been tested by Yaya’s strength.
However, the Land Dragon’s attack on the city wall also came at a huge price.
The wounds left by various weapons were bleeding, and the recoil of the brutal collision with the city wall also made their heads a little dizzy.
The dragon hunting crossbow hidden in the many weapons’ attacks penetrated their defenses and really made them feel the pain.
The injured Land Dragon roared wildly, took a few steps back, and prepared to accumulate strength and continue to collide.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The dense crossbow arrows passed over them and covered the dragon blood creatures behind.
Arnold, who noticed this scene, immediately arranged to continue shooting at several Land Dragons.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The armor-piercing crossbow arrows with extremely strong lethality rotated and pierced into the bodies of the land dragons.
The toxins and blood-draining grooves on the crossbow arrows gradually took effect, making these land dragons feel more and more angry.
They hit the city wall hard again, and the visible vibration made the entire city wall shake.
Fortunately, the city wall was still safe and sound, and the soldiers quickly recovered and continued to attack with weapons.
Angela forced herself to withdraw her attention from these rough-skinned and thick-fleshed land dragons, and began to pay more attention to the dragon blood creatures covered by fire in the distance.
Most of them have crossed the trenches and are rushing towards this side in a mighty manner.
The coverage of cannons and crossbows has caused them a lot of casualties.
The activation and urging of blood power has not made their flesh and blood bodies have any essential changes.
Therefore, in front of such high-kill weapons, they are still fragile.
The densely packed dragon blood creatures gradually surrounded the mist fortress and launched attacks from all sides.
They attacked the city wall savagely, using their sharp claws and teeth to dig at it.
It looked a bit absurd, but the effect was actually very obvious.
Even though the stone was made of magic, it was poured with reinforced concrete, and it was also reinforced with forbidden magic metal.
When facing the fangs and teeth of dragon blood creatures, they were still dug out one pit after another.
The power of dragon blood is so strong and strange.
This is why the dragon madness disaster can cause such great destructive power and impact.
You never know which dragon beast below has the terrible ability to destroy the city and split the mountain and rock.
The soldiers can only attack them with all their strength, and dozens of dragon blood creatures die every second.
At this time, the sentry on the sentry tower shouted in a sharp voice:
"Pterosaurs are found, there are 30 of them!"
A series of sharp roars came from the sky.
These sub-dragons, which are similar to flying dragons, but only four or five meters in size, are high-level magical creatures - pterosaurs!
They have gray-green scales and bat-like membrane wings, flapping their wings vigorously.
Two sharp and ferocious hind legs can easily tear open the chest of the prey and break their bones.
In the big mouth filled with two rows of sharp fangs, there are special acid glands that can spit out highly corrosive acid that can easily burn the skin and melt the bones.
Their average challenge level is 14. Not only are their individual combat capabilities relatively strong, but they are also social creatures.
Encountering these terrible monsters in the wild is definitely fatal.
Behind these pterosaurs, hundreds of flying dragons of different sizes also kept making deafening screams.
Arnold, who had been prepared for a long time, shouted to the soldiers on the sentry tower:
"Arrow No. 4 is ready, aim carefully!"
As soon as the voice fell, a provocative scream came from the sentry tower.
Hearing this, the pterosaurs immediately turned to pounce on the sentry tower.
Some nervous soldiers, watching the pterosaurs getting closer and closer, couldn't help but grit their teeth and wait for the order to shoot.
Although there are weapons specifically designed to deal with these pterosaurs, the timing of the attack must be well grasped.
Seeing these pterosaurs flying closer and closer, the soldiers can even see the scarlet and trembling tongues in their open mouths.
"Shoot!"
Arnold's loud voice sounded like heavenly music to the soldiers at this moment.
They subconsciously pulled the trigger, and the special crossbow arrows flew out.
When they were about to get close to the pterosaurs, they suddenly opened up and turned into a large net with metal spikes, wrapping most of the pterosaurs in it.
The tough metal nets prevented these pterosaurs from breaking free in the first place, and the entangled wings could no longer provide them with the power to fly.
These panicked pterosaurs fell from the air with a scream while spinning.
Plop!
Most of them fell on the heads of the dragon-blooded creatures on the ground.
Both sides were hit hard, their bones were broken, their bodies twisted, and they died in the blink of an eye.
The monster that was so ferocious just now suddenly died because it lost the power to fly.
The soldiers who succeeded in the attack shouted excitedly, but Arnold was not as happy as them.
The remaining seven pterosaurs had already rushed to the vicinity of the sentry tower, and it seemed that they were about to launch an attack.
He raised his hand and waved, ordering the archers who had not been shooting just now to cover the sky.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The galloping armor-piercing crossbow arrows showed extraordinary lethality.
They instantly pierced through the bodies of these pterosaurs, tearing their wings and bodies.
Many flying dragon beasts that pounced from behind were shot down by crossbow arrows.
The shrill cries of the flying dragon beasts disappeared without a trace.
Arnold asked the soldiers in the sentry tower to continue to beware of the flying dragon beasts.
He looked at the land dragons that continued to attack the city wall, and turned his head to look at Angela on the other side.
"Do you want to attack them?"
Angela shook her head silently, knowing very well that the enemies of the Bay Territory were not only these dragon blood creatures, but also the black hands hidden behind the scenes.
Arnold nodded silently, and continued to patiently command the soldiers to cooperate with Lyon to defend the city wall.
Half an hour later.
The Lu Xinglong's behavior of destroying the city wall has achieved remarkable results. The solid city wall was dug into a two- to three-meter-long pit by them, and the shock caused by each collision became more and more obvious.
The exposed steel bars and concrete fragments in the gaps of the wall showed their unparalleled destructive power.
These Lu Xinglongs, who were hit by twenty or thirty armor-piercing crossbow arrows, not only did not intend to stop, but became even more hardworking.
Angela did not continue to insist and decisively issued an order to retreat:
"Enter the teleportation array!"
The soldiers put away the crossbows and supplies as quickly as possible and evacuated from the city wall in an orderly manner.
The 5,000-man defense force entered the teleportation array in just 10 minutes.
This solid castle has become an empty city at this time.
In the roar of Lu Xinglong, the 6-meter-thick city wall was broken open.
The mighty dragon beasts swarmed in!
After walking out of the teleportation array, Angela took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions in her heart.
She adjusted her state as quickly as possible and strode into the conference room not far away.
The soldiers had already gone to the corresponding combat positions according to the training.
The whole process was very quiet, with few people talking and communicating, and only occasionally the sound of issuing orders and reporting was heard.
As soon as she entered the conference room, Angela saw that all the army commanders had arrived. While she was slightly relaxed, she walked to the top and clicked on the magic map image.
It not only showed a detailed map of the Gulf Territory, but also marked the situation and attack range of the dragon blood creatures.
Various results and data were also reported, and soon they were summarized in front of everyone.
"The first phase of the battle plan was successfully completed. The first line of defense blocked the dragon blood creatures for a total of 45 minutes, killing a total of 35,000 dragon blood creatures, and there are still 265,000."
"It is expected that the dragon blood creatures will reach the second line of defense in an hour. We need to persist here for an hour and strive to kill more than 50,000 dragon blood creatures!"
Angela's voice kept ringing in the conference room.
Other commanders also expressed their own opinions and suggestions for improving the original plan according to different situations encountered in the battle.
Everyone discussed these suggestions for improvement, repeatedly confirmed that there were no adverse consequences, and agreed to conduct some attempts.
Everyone's time is limited, the soldiers' energy is limited, and all promotions have certain risks. Slow attempts can play a better role.
Yondala took out the bread that had been prepared long ago and ate two bites happily.
Although she is small, she has a big appetite and eats 4 meals a day.
Fortunately, the Gulf Territory can fully meet Yondala's needs. This is one of her favorite things about the Gulf Territory.
"Don't eat too much, so as not to affect the battle later."
Rui Ke carefully reminded her. She no longer wore a cloak that covered her head and face like she did when she first came to the Gulf Territory.
The silver-white ears trembled slightly from time to time, always paying attention to any movement around.
Rui Ke was a tiefling!
The soldiers around her did not cast a look at her, which made her feel most comfortable.
Seeing Yodala nodding happily, Rui Ke didn't know whether she had listened to him or not, and carefully checked the various parts of the crossbow.
After eating a fist-sized piece of bread, Yondala gulped down another mouthful of herbal tea, squinted her eyes, and continued confidently:
"Don't worry, the more I eat, the better I perform."
Rike naturally didn't believe her "nonsense" and stared at her until she shrank her neck and immediately began to check, and then continued to exhort:
"The impact of the Dragon Madness is intensifying, and we must obtain higher authority as soon as possible."
"When the time comes, I will use all the gold coins and merits to hire adventurers to help me!"
Yundala next to him blinked and asked curiously:
"How many merits have you accumulated?"
Rike was about to answer when the commander's order suddenly came from not far away:
"People from the 3rd company, get ready, and go to the 42nd outpost with me!"
Hearing this, Rico and Yondala stood up quickly, followed the platoon leader's steps, and lined up as quickly as possible.
Soon, they boarded a magic transport ship that could travel through the swamp, just like sailing on the water.
Yodala looked at the propeller spinning behind him curiously, feeling the powerful force contained in it, and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"It seems that there are more and more magical creations in the territory..."
Nodding as a matter of course, after a period of study, Rui Ke said in a very expectant tone:
"Yes, major research institutes encourage inventions and creations very much. Whatever the territory needs, they will do their best to create it, and there will naturally be more and more magical creations."
Feeling the cold wind with a little odor blowing on her cheeks, Youdala continued nervously:
"How many enemies will we deal with this time?"
Shaking her head slowly, Rui Ke looked at the barren swamp around her, and an expectant thought emerged in her mind:
"Maybe, a difficult task requires them to take action!"
Facts have proved that she thought too much.
The style of executing tasks in the Bay Territory is more about winning by stability.
No explanation to her means nothing will happen.
On the road connecting the Misty Castle and the Bay Territory, the dragon blood creatures formed a long line and marched hard in the swamp.
Compared to the comfort of the plains, the soft mud in the swamp is not so friendly.
Except for the hard ground in the middle that was specially widened, which could accommodate giants like land dragons to gallop.
The soft and rotten ground around was like a big hand, dragging other dragon blood creatures tightly.
They wanted them to slow down and merge with the entire swamp.
So, the team was stretched very long, but they still moved forward firmly towards the location of the Bay Territory.
The soldiers defending along the way gave a warm welcome to their persistence.
One groove after another, which was as wide as 10 meters, blocked the center of the road.
It was filled with rotten and smelly mud, waiting for them to rush over.
On both sides of the road, on more than a dozen magic ships, soldiers holding crossbows kept firing crossbows at them, attracting them and guiding them.
So, these huge numbers of dragon blood creatures stepped into the depths of the swamp step by step.
The soldiers who had been waiting for a long time watched the arrival of these dragon blood creatures, and then used various weapons they had arranged to vent their anger on them.
All units that attacked the territory will suffer the most fatal blow!
Especially the three leading land dragons, the continuous bleeding and the deepening of poisoning have made them exhausted.
When the new round of attacks came, the three land dragons could no longer hold on and fell in front of the defense line.
Their tenacious vitality prevented them from dying immediately.
But they were no longer able to participate in the battle.
The dragon blood creatures behind them crossed their bodies and attacked the Gulf Territory's defense line.
The overwhelming attack came roaring, and more and more dragon blood creatures fell in a pool of blood.
So far, they have not even caused substantial casualties to the Gulf Territory soldiers.
However, in the center of the entire large army, more than 10 powerful land dragons were rushing towards the defense line.
They are about to arrive at the battlefield, ready to tear apart any enemies that stand in their way!
In order to deal with ordinary dragon blood creatures, the camp built by the Gulf Territory soldiers in the middle of the road is constantly launching fatal attacks!
"Kill!!!"
The shrill shouts of killing kept echoing in the swamp, and dense crossbows flew among the dragon blood creatures.
One dragon beast after another fell.
Some of them tried to struggle to stand up and continue to attack forward.
Some were pushed down by their companions with brute force, stepped into the soft mud, and could no longer stand up.
Huh!
The dragon beasts panted violently, looking ahead greedily and hungry.
If it weren't for the whispers in their ears calling them, they would have already bared their ferocious fangs to the surrounding dragon beasts.
Now, the voice began to gradually become weaker, as if it had exhausted the power poured into them.
However, the inertia of thinking still made them move forward.
The command of thinking carried by the flesh is like a painting that can be altered at will.
In front of them, a towering wall blocked them.
The huge swamp fortress wrapped a large area of land including the ruins.
This is the area with the largest number of adventurers in the entire Bay Territory, and it is also the area with the largest number of residents except Bay City.
The 10-meter-high wall is not particularly impressive, but it is thick enough to block the path of these dragon beasts.
More than 50,000 soldiers are busy in the city, carrying supplies and preparing defense lines.
They are not going to retreat, and are ready to fight a decisive battle with these dragon blood creatures here.
For three days.
The soldiers have been entangled with the army of dragon blood creatures in the misty swamp.
The trenches and temporary camps are full of fallen corpses of dragon blood creatures.
Many adventurers have been organized to collect and sort out those corpses.
They have even returned to the misty fortress and are repairing the outer wall of the ruined fortress.
There are only 150,000 dragon blood creatures left out of 300,000.
Most of the small dragon blood creatures have died, and the remaining ones are larger dragon beasts with thick skin and flesh.
Their bodies have completed a deeper level of dragonization and transformation when the dragon blood power is activated.
Many new specialties and skills transformed from this made Matthew, who had been watching the battle, very happy.
Thanks to the help of these dragon-blood creatures, Matthew was able to improve his expertise and skill reserve.
The only thing that made Matthew feel a little regretful was that these dragon-blood creatures seemed to be deeply affected by the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock, and did not have the ability to resist the mind.
Think about it, if they had such an ability, they would not be confused and bound by the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock, and gradually become manipulated beasts.
In addition to the Gulf Leader’s army, more than 50,000 adventurers also gathered here.
They were eyeing the value of these dragon-blood creatures.
The dragon-blood creatures that are still alive are at least mid-level magic creatures, or special species affected by the power of dragon blood.
Whether it is various magic materials or the organs and materials of these dragon-blood creatures, they can be sold at a very high price.
Not to mention, in order to stimulate the fighting enthusiasm of the adventurers.
All the types and values of dragon-blood creatures have been marked out, so that they can watch with confidence.
As the dragon-blood creatures get closer and closer, the atmosphere of the battle begins to gradually emerge.
Thousands of heavy crossbows are arranged on the city wall.
The 200 guns that were urgently manufactured are undergoing final inspection and debugging.
Boxes filled with various supplies are piled up on the city wall and the second line of defense behind the city wall.
For this battle, the Gulf Territory prepared more than 5 million gold coins of various combat supplies, and they are all consumables.
Of course, the reason why the Gulf Territory can easily pay this money is all due to the dedication of the dragon blood creatures themselves.
This money is the extra value created by the dead dragon blood creatures with their bodies and battles.
To put it simply, it is the current profit of the Gulf Territory in this battle.
The Gulf Territory has not spent a single gold coin!
Staring at the remaining 8 land dragons in the distance, Angela, with a calm face, silently faced the 800 sturdy men in front of her.
Each of them wore a jacket made of dragon skin, with various killing weapons hanging on their bodies, and a bright red scarf on their heads.
Muscular, sharp eyes, and amazing momentum.
They are the Catachan jungle warriors recruited by the Gulf Territory in the Catachan demiplane!
In addition to their strong bodies, the professional road power that they have gradually mastered, various new magic weapons and equipment, have also made their strength quite amazing.
The purpose of their being mobilized is to deal with these powerful land dragons!
They are very powerful, and each of them has participated in hunting Catachan demons and various extraordinary dangerous creatures.
They cooperate well and are keen to challenge difficult opponents!
Lyon, who was not far away, shouted: "Prepare the artillery!"
As he waved the flag, the burst of fire roared out.
The black iron ball flew out, slid over a distance of thousands of meters, and hammered into the army of dragon blood creatures.
Even a strong dragon beast could not withstand such a fierce blow.
The dragon beast that was hit hard usually suffered serious injuries.
Only eight land dragons stood out and rushed over frantically with heavy steps.
Compared with a few days ago, their appearance has changed significantly. The armor on their heads is thicker, and they even have a keratin layer like a battering ram.
Such a special transformation gave the soldiers of the Bay Leader a feeling that they were evolving for the city wall.
In fact, this is the peculiarity of dragon blood.
The speed of adapting to the environment is very fast, and the transformation is also very targeted.
Facing these powerful monsters, the dragon hunting crossbows that were ready to go shot crossbow arrows without hesitation.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The huge crossbow arrows pierced the land dragons, leaving a piece of blood light after another.
The blood dripping all over their bodies, but it could not stop their firm steps.
These fierce monsters, under the cover of various attacks, hit the thick city wall head-on.
The huge shock made the adventurers watching the battle couldn't help but be amazed.
Many sharp-eyed people saw huge gaps on the city wall they hit.
Even the solid city wall seemed to be unable to stop their steps.
It won't be long before the land dragon will forcibly break through the city wall!
Angela, who saw this situation, did not panic at all. Instead, she announced the battle order step by step:
"Cannons fire freely, and give priority to killing medium-sized dragon blood creatures."
"Crossbows fire volleys!"
"Catachan soldiers, kill these land dragons!"
The soldiers who had been waiting for a long time soon began to fire at full force.
The entire battlefield soon entered a white-hot stage!
The Catachan warriors have very rich experience in hunting large enemies.
Even though they already know all kinds of information about land dragons, they still choose to observe their movements and bodies carefully.
Use your own judgment to find the opponent's weaknesses.
Soon, the Catachan soldiers came to their own judgment.
They immediately gathered together and had a concise discussion at the fastest speed.
They took action!
160 Catachan warriors chose to use various long-range weapons to shoot at the eyes of 8 land dragons.
They did not expect to directly make these land dragons blind, but to cover their teammates' actions.
These Catachan warriors, who were very brave, did not stay on the city wall. Instead, they came to the back of the city wall and made various arrangements.
10 minutes later.
The furious land dragon, covered in blood, forcibly punched a large hole through the several-meter-thick city wall.
These guys were fearless and took turns to violently attack the big hole.
The stones shattered one after another, and the stable structure built with steel bars also broke apart in the repeated impacts.
These land dragons carried an indescribable surging blood power, which could cause great damage to these stones and city walls.
They were about to break through the city wall and rush into the city wall.
Angela finally sent out the war weapons from the Gulf Territory against these large creatures.
In the underground world battle, the Dragoon No. 1 Golem, which showed super combat power, jumped off the city wall in the spotlight.
Boom!
Bang!
The spiked hammer hit the defenseless land dragon head heavily.
The flying sparks and the huge body that kept retreating backwards showed the huge force of this violent collision.
The Dragoon Golem No. 1, which slowly stood up from the smoke and dust, did not defend the city wall.
There were 20 of them, and they took the initiative to charge forward.
Some of them would hold heavy maces, and some would carry huge battle axes, exuding a dazzling metallic luster, and their movements were very agile.
Such a distinctive golem, coupled with its super high appearance and majestic figure, immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Bang!
The Dragoon Golem No. 1 did not confront the violently rushing land dragon head-on.
They lightly bypassed the side and swung their weapons to hit the belly of the land dragon.
They were full of strength and very destructive. Even the thick and solid phosphorus armor of the land dragon was hit with wounds.
However, their size was still too small compared to the land dragon.
It could only entangle these land dragons and could not directly confront their direct advance.
Crack!
A Dragoon No. 1 Golem was unable to dodge and was directly hit by Lu Xinglong.
Its chest was sunken and its metal body was knocked to the ground.
Fortunately, these Dragoon No. 1s were not bothered by the pain.
It immediately launched a fierce counterattack, and the iron hammer hit Lu Xinglong's leg.
"Roar...!"
Lu Xinglong, who was shouting in anger and pain, opened his mouth and bit the Dragoon No. 1 Golem.
The latter realized that he could not dodge and launched a fierce counterattack without hesitation.
A group of black mist that kept surging sprayed out from the chest of Dragoon No. 1.
Lu Xinglong, who was unable to dodge, was sprayed directly. The black object was extremely corrosive. After being stained with blood and flesh, it immediately "bite" out big holes.
But this monster didn't care, endured the corrosion caused by the weapon, opened its mouth and bit the head of the Dragoon No. 1 Golem.
Crack!
Crash!
The ferocious dragon teeth, which were stronger than metal, tore open the protection of Dragoon No. 1 and destroyed the core structure inside.
The first Dragoon No. 1 Golem was destroyed!
The golem, which cost 50,000 gold coins, turned into a pile of scrap metal.
The other Dragoon No. 1 Golems were still fearless. While the land dragon was affected by the poison, they surrounded it.
They specifically chose the weaker parts of the land dragon's protection, such as the thighs, abdomen, neck, and back.
Even though the land dragon had thick skin and strong tolerance for pain, it could not withstand such repeated attacks.
Other land dragons rushed to help, and soon a fierce melee broke out.
One by one, the Dragoon No. 1 Golems were destroyed.
Although their strength was good, they were still high-level golems after all.
They could not pose a fatal threat to the extraordinary land dragons.
Angela waited silently.
She felt very sad about the destruction of these Dragoon No. 1 Golems, but she still held back.
Until the 8th Dragoon No. 1 Golem was bitten off half of its body and died heroically.
Its counterattack before death also hit the abdomen of the besieged Land Dragon. A solid blow.
A huge gap was broken!
This Land Dragon lost its combat effectiveness.
Angela gave them a new combat order.
"Attack forward, attack other dragon blood creatures rushing over."
Seeing these annoying iron lumps leave, the Land Dragons, who were originally very vengeful, seemed to have forgotten their hatred at this moment.
They immediately turned around and launched a swift attack on the wall with a gap.
Boom!
Accompanied by a violent fluctuation of the wall, the Land Dragons that joined together finally broke through the wall.
Even though they were covered in blood and had wounds everywhere.
But when they broke through the smoke and fog and forcibly killed their way into the city wall, they still gave everyone a great shock.
Flesh and blood bodies can actually be so strong!
The Land Dragon finally broke through the city wall, and all the adventurers were worried.
The Land Dragon itself was very scary, with amazing killing power, super high defense, and a thick health bar.
Most ordinary adventurers didn't even have the courage to stand in front of them.
They didn't dare to attack, but someone did!
The Catachan warriors who had been waiting for a long time decisively launched a long-awaited attack.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Dozens of huge crossbow arrows flew out with the help of the dragon hunting crossbow and pierced into the body of the first land dragon.
The crossbow arrows were connected with thick iron chains and barbs. After piercing into the body of the land dragon, they suddenly collapsed straight under the force of the land dragon.
Pain!
"Roar...!"
However, even if the land dragon struggled frantically, the huge crossbow arrows pierced into the body still stubbornly "locked" it.
The behemoth did not break free from the shackles and was imprisoned in place.
It turned its head and opened its mouth to "click" and bit off an iron chain.
It did not notice that a sneaky figure had jumped down from the city wall.
It was aimed at its back!
