Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 401: I said, I said anything

Views:

The battle between the legendary powerhouses in the void outside the world is about to break out, and the battle in the Holy Mountain in the distant sea has already become fierce.

Edda Ash Island is a large volcanic island covering an area of nearly 500 square kilometers. The terrain gradually decreases towards the coast with the central sacred mountain as the center. There are natural deep-water bays in its west and north directions and large ports. In addition to these two port towns, there are countless temples and houses where priests live scattered on the holy mountain, which serve as the hub of the magic circle circuit.

But now, both the southwest port and other scattered temples and houses have been ignited by fire. The yellow-green corrosive mist is eroding the simple wooden huts of the priests. The flames dissolve the steel, and the shield of the holy mountain is broken. Within minutes, tens of thousands of flying dragons had completely destroyed all the buildings outside the Holy Mountain.

This is the terrifying power of the legion of high-level monsters. Originally, flying dragons were the most powerful monsters among the low-level and middle-level silver monsters. The most powerful ones were even as powerful as young dragons. Ordinary humans would need to form a team of at least four people to defeat them. For flying dragons of the same level, thousands of flying dragons collectively spit out liquid flames to bombard the surface. Their power is no less powerful than the napalm bombs used to clean the ground in the previous life, and it is even more powerful.

The only ones who can fight against them are the high-level legions that are also organized.

For example, the Legion of Priests of the Church of the Seven Gods.

At this time, the Church of the Seven Gods has not yet formed a holy army affiliated with the Holy Mountain, but as users of the Holy Light, their natural tacit understanding is better than that of an ordinary team. There are nearly 30,000 elite saints of Silver rank and above. The practitioners gathered in the central temple area around the foot of the Holy Mountain. They used various magical techniques to resist the indiscriminate bombardment of the mad dragon, relying on the temple that had been transformed into a fortress for defense.

Although the super-large shield surrounding the holy mountain has been destroyed, the small barrier built into the temple is still effective. Liquid fire the size of a human head was sprayed out by the flying dragon in mid-air, and fell like raindrops on the translucent On the grid shield, the violent explosion made the defensive priest team turn pale from the impact, but they still calmly injected energy into the barrier to eliminate the flames. They clearly knew that Feilong's dragon breath was limited. After two or three full breaths, they could only wait for the next day to recover. As long as they survived this period, the next step would be much easier.

Flying dragons wreaked havoc on the entire island, but most of them were in the northeast and northeast, where the headquarters of the mad dragon army was located. The defense lines in the southwest and southwest easily withstood the collective spit of the dragons, but to the north of the central temple area, there were already The barriers of many temples were shattered by the continuous dragon breath.

The tidal wave of dragons crossed the broken barrier and hit the outer temple defense line. The terrifying roar spread in all directions.

If it were an ordinary army's defense line, it would be the time to collapse now. Flames exceeding a thousand degrees can melt steel and kill anyone, and the sharp claws of the flying dragon can easily tear apart armor - but the Holy Knights of the Church are different. Before the barrier was about to be broken down, they stepped into the front row instead of the priests who maintained the barrier, and then calmly drew their weapons. Just when the barrier was broken and countless flames came overwhelmingly, these knights who believed in the way of the Holy Light collectively shouted together and then waved their weapons.

The fighting spirit and the light of the holy light flickered, and the air was chopped into white shock waves. The surging air blades at the speed of sound not only chopped the dragon's breath, but also injured many approaching flying dragons.

Both are at the silver level, and the paladin's slashes are not inferior to the flying dragon's impact, cutting steel and iron as if it were nothing.

However, these knights quickly withdrew, and countless magical puppets made of steel poured out from the temple and took over in the front row—each of these were more than two meters high, and were like automatic armor-like magical constructs. The body is the main force in this war. No one will be stupid enough to engage in a brutal hand-to-hand combat with an unintelligent mad flying dragon. Every priest is a valuable fighting force. Accompanying the chanting, sacred golden light surged through every priest and puppet, and the entire central temple area was instantly covered with a layer of light film, forming a sharp contrast with the black dragons.

Gold and black collided with each other, and after a moment, the sky was full of broken limbs and parts flying into the air.

Wielding huge swords and hammers as big as door panels, the magical puppets also threw stone balls to attack the flying dragons around the temple. Their movements were relatively slow and difficult to hit the target, but as long as they hit the target, they could He simply smashed a flying dragon to the ground, and then cut it into two pieces. Even if it didn't work, it would cause the opponent's hands and feet to be broken off, and a wing would be lost.

The flying dragon took advantage of its huge size to easily tear the puppet's body apart. One of the two sides was a puppet, and the other was transformed into a madman. Both were not afraid of blood and pain. The central temple area instantly turned into a steel meat grinder.

Under the ferocious charge of the mad dragon, the outermost temple defense lines were lost in an instant. Most of the priests among them were killed and wounded, and only a small part was left to rely on the complex terrain inside the temple to hold on. However, in this war, it was difficult for them to do so. If anything, the golden defense line was instantly dented by the impact of the black dragons.

But in contrast, the speed of the crazy dragon group was also completely suppressed. The dragon group that broke into the defense line was besieged from three directions, and there was no room to dodge and retreat. The fierce tug-of-war officially began.

This is just a battle between ordinary church priests and flying dragons.

The gold-level knights, trial priests, and high-level dragons did not participate in the battle, not to mention the supreme knight leaders, high priests, and dragon lords. They watched the battlefield vigilantly and were always on guard. An attack by a strong enemy of the same level.

Gray Island's western defense line,

For the ultimate blue dragon, [Wind Rider] Sularno, the events that have happened in the past year are as unreasonable as a dream.

Blue dragons are synonymous with freedom and self. They are not restricted by any restrictions and do not like any rules. These giant dragons born in the sky like to soar in the sky and enjoy the beautiful scenery everywhere. Everything that happens on the ground has nothing to do with them. , this type of dragon is also the dragon that has the least contact with humans. Compared with the trivial matters on the surface, they are more willing to fly towards the sun.

But a year ago, the legendary dragon who was only the master of the blue dragon in name, [Eternal Storm Wind] Rhytia suddenly and uncharacteristically resonated through the bloodline and issued a rally order to all the blue dragons. It strongly demanded that all wandering The blue dragons from around Mycroft's world traveled to the Storm Lair deep in the ocean to gather, saying they had something important to announce.

But as mentioned before, this kind of giant dragon is free and self-centered, so that most blue dragons simply ignore the orders of their nominal leader and continue to fly in the sky everywhere - the life and death of blue dragons depend on the sky. , like an albatross, young dragons grow up on their father's back. They have no nests, and naturally they will not be found or threatened. Authority is nothing more than a joke to these giant dragons.

But for some reason, Sularno became curious about it. Even though it now regrets and wants to throw its former self into the abyss, no matter what, this ultimate blue dragon came to the Storm Lair and met the clan leader Rhytia, the only blue dragon who came here. .

Then, it learned some extremely crazy things - for example, the five-color dragon clan was going to cause a dragon disaster and disrupt the entire Mycrof continent. For example, they had gathered an army of crazy dragons and were about to invade the Far South Kingdom and destroy this ancient kingdom. Destruction... Rhytia seemed very excited when she said this, as if everything was easy.

Surarno was stunned.

With the Dragon God above, how dare they? This is a war against a large human country. For the already sparse dragons, as long as the loss is slightly larger, it is almost equal to extinction!

Surarno originally thought that this was the end. It was not surprising that the five-color dragon clan would go crazy occasionally. Anyway, it would have to admit defeat and run away. But what is even crazier is that for some reason, it is now on Ash Island, the Holy Mountain of the Church of the Seven Gods, and All human priests on this continent are enemies!

The horns of the Dragon God - this is the place where the Seven Gods shelter. Even if they really knock down the Holy Mountain, what should the Seven Gods do if they descend? Even if the two dragon gods join forces, they can't fight against the furious seven human gods. What did the other dragons eat to dare to do this? !

Sularno couldn't help but suspect that he was the only one in the entire five-color dragon clan who had sense and could think of these things - of course, it might also be crazy, otherwise why wouldn't it just ignore this crap like the other blue dragons and fly freely in the sky?

Looking back, the beginning of these crazy things should be traced back to more than 150 years ago. The Lord of the Black Dragon [Dark Sea Dragon] Keano went to the outside of the world to look for traces of the Lord of the Red Dragon and the Lord of the Green Dragon. In the end, it did not bring news about the two lost dragon clan leaders. Instead, it brought back a strange statue. , since then, there has always been something wrong with Ceano. It seems to have found the other two legendary five-color dragons and conspired for a long time.

That's when things started to get weird.

Blue dragons don't like to be in groups, and they don't care about the news about the group. Surarno's understanding of these things ends here. But during the time when it was wandering on the mainland, it gradually discovered that its own kind They became more and more evil - the five-metal dragons obeyed the order, while the five-color dragons were not restrained, but this does not mean that all five-color dragons are inherently evil. They can be regarded as liberal at best, but from that time on, there is no Suddenly, news came that five-color dragons were attacking humans and elven dwarves.

The peak period of this madness was a hundred years ago, when the black dragon Mandagaer and the black dragon Grandi teamed up to destroy a small human country. This shocking tragedy forced all the strong human beings on the continent to come to Dragon Island, forcing the dragon clan to make compromise.

"What, no more?"

A dissatisfied voice came, and Sularno felt a sharp pain in his neck.

Of course, the most incredible thing is now, the free blue dragon thought helplessly.

It is being questioned by a human.

Suralno's entire dragon body sank into the ground, like a rotten-tailed lizard rolling in a mud puddle. It was as if someone had hammered a wooden nail into the entire body of it before, and it was covered with dirt. A huge black ax with ominous blood shining on it is resting on the blue dragon's neck. The huge body is covered with huge wounds with deep bones. Pools of blue dragon blood flow out and have filled the depressions on the ground. , forming pools of blood.

In the pool of blood, a human warrior with black hair and red eyes was holding a giant axe. He also held a silver sword in his other hand. The warrior was asking him in an impatient tone: "I want to know." It’s not the cause of the dragon disaster, but where the other Jiyi-level dragons are now. Don’t talk nonsense. For the sake of your brain, as long as you tell them all, I will spare you half of your life.”

Later...
