"Whew!" The fire swept across the earth, making the earth hard and hot. A dragon swept low in the sky, and everything seemed to be charred. In the face of ancient and powerful creatures, human beings are small and helpless from beginning to end.

The few remaining soldiers of Irlanhill were still shooting at the top of their heads, and they had come out of the initial chaos and despair, for they had seen too many deaths.

They kept pouring out their ammunition, as if that was the way to vent their inner fears. The soldiers of the Arrant Empire, who were getting closer and closer to them, had stopped because flames were already rising and burning in front of them.

"Vulnerable!" Urging the dragon under his crotch to swoop down again, the dragon rider on the dragon's back tugging at the dragon's reins, disdainful of the ants under his feet. Mortals are just mortals after all, and no matter how powerful mortals are, they can't resist the will of the Holy Demon Empire, this is the truth of God, there is no doubt about it.

"Ding! Sou......! A bullet rushed through the gap between the dragon's flapping wings, grazing his breastplate and flying in front of his face, barely knocking his nose off.

The dragon knight didn't know what had almost killed him just now, he subconsciously touched his nose, and then looked down again to see the ants with less than a hundred people left under his feet.

The ants were still those ants, but when he lowered his head this time, it was no longer that disdainful and mocking expression, because sweat had oozed from the tip of his nose unconsciously. Those bastards...... How?

For the first time in his psyche, there was a question: how did those panicked stupid mortals at his feet manage to almost injure the dragon knight in the sacred armor?

The armor on his body is not ordinary armor, which allows him to defend against the blows of bows and arrows at a distance of tens of meters. Ordinary mortal swords and swords will not cause damage to this set of armor.

However, at this very moment, he saw the pattern on the armor, which had been twisted and deformed by the impact of the bullet, leaving behind a long black abrasion—in the past, he might not have seen this level of damage to the armor on his body when facing an army of tens of thousands of mortals.

"Damn it!" He felt the uneasiness and annoyance that the dragon in his crotch had transmitted to him, something he had never done in a previous war. If he could, he really wanted to descend and take a closer look at those mortals to see what exactly gave them such power.

"Destroy! These damned mortals must be destroyed completely! With a tug on the reins, giving the dragon a signal to dive and continue its attack, the dragon knight put away his doubts and attacked again.

But this swoop made him see a scene of fear. A comrade-in-arms dragon did not pull up after swooping and spitting fire, but after crossing two mounds, it crashed headfirst into the ground.

The dragon's muscular body left a long furrow in the ground, and its massive wings twisted and snapped in pain. Because the force was so great, the impact lifted up the dirt, and it was as spectacular as a meteorite landing.

As the dragon hit the ground, the battle seemed to come to an end that wasn't quite a happy one. Iran Hill's gunshots were no longer heard on the ground, nor could there be cries or uncomfortable screams. The battle was over, and as always, it ended with the victory of the Holy Demon Empire.

However, the dragon knight hovering in the sky couldn't laugh, he had never seen such a powerful 500 mortals, and he had never seen such a strange battle process.

"Whew!" Huge fleshy wings flapped in the sky, and several dragon knights flew over and landed next to the fallen dragon. The dragon knights rolled over and dismounted their dragons, and pressed their swords anxiously to the dragon, which was still panting.

"Roar......" The giant beast lying on the ground seemed to want to express something, but the voice coming from the mouth full of fangs was not domineering at all, only a sound similar to a wail.

The captain in charge of commanding the dragon knight squad stretched out his hand and pressed it on the body of the giant dragon that was still desperately gasping, as if he wanted to soothe the huge reptile that was not lightly injured.

Then he saw that many scales had broken into the dragon's abdomen, and under the broken scales, the dragon's blood could be faintly seen. The weapons in the hands of those mortals actually turned the scales of the dragon ...... Shattered.

"Shrek! Shrek! The two dragon knights found the dragon knight lying on the ground on the other side of the dragon's body, this dragon knight also seemed to be wounded, his armor was a little twisted, and there was blood on his face, and they didn't know if it was caused by the fall and impact just now, or from the battle.

"Captain...... He fainted, and his life was fine, but ...... "Looking at the person and dragon beside him, the mood of several dragon knights seemed to be extremely bad. It's not that they haven't lost dragon knights in previous battles, but it's the first time in a hundred years that there have been casualties in the face of such a small number of enemies.

"Damn." Holding his helmet, the man who was the captain seemed to want to vent, but he couldn't find anyone to vent, and after looking around, he could only stomp his feet and vent his dissatisfaction.

Another dragon descended from the sky, and Ildo rode on the dragon's back, looking down on the dragon that was struggling on the ground but could not get up, and his armoured hand clenched little by little as he pulled the reins.

Iran Hill ...... It seems that it is no longer as simple as teaching a lesson. This empire has seriously threatened the dignity of the Holy Demon Empire, and this mortal country should not continue to exist!

This time, even if there are really some losses, this damn mortal country must be wiped out! Their technology, their civilization, their lives, everything they care about and don't care about, must be wiped out!

"That's it! Don't be sad! We're going to reformulate our strategy! The other party looks like it's already a nuisance! Unable to dismount from the dragon, Ildo comforted his men.

"In the next battle, we will inevitably take some risks, we will lose some comrades, but the Holy Demon Empire will win!" He clenched his fists and spoke hatefully.

At this moment, he was thinking about something else: just now, in front of so many soldiers of the Arrant Empire, they lost a dragon knight. If you take the soldiers of the Arrant Empire along the way, then it will be difficult to keep the authoritative imagination of the Holy Demon Empire along the way.

These soldiers of the Arrant Empire will spread the idea to every corner of the world: humans can defeat the dragon knights of the Holy Demon Empire, at least the army of Iran Hill has done such a miracle.

With such a huge blow to prestige, the Holy Demon Empire couldn't bear it. So the best way is to get rid of those people from the Arrant Empire, act alone, and slaughter all the people who love it! Then, disguise the slaughter as a vent of anger, and everything will fall into place again.

Moreover, if you attack the city directly, you can use the advantage that dragons can fly to get past the outer defense line of Alan Hill, and you can also minimize the losses as much as possible. Following Arant's ground forces all the way through like this, God knows how many more of these Elan Hill troops will be encountered along the way, and it will be a joke if they lose all the way when the time comes.

Besides, mortals who fight against dragons generally choose to act far away from the city. The fear is that the dragon will attack the city and cause irreparable damage, so if you directly raid the city, the opponent's defense is likely to be very empty, and you can get miraculous results.

After thinking about it for so much, Ildo quickly drew up a feasible tactical plan: he was ready to break away from the Arrant Imperial army, lead his dragon knight troops to make a rapid breakthrough, and be the first to reach Maricha and launch a surprise attack there.

Even if Maricha is destroyed at any cost, the prestige of the Holy Demon Empire must be re-established, so that mortal realms, including the Arrant Empire, can take a good look at the fate of disobeying the Holy Demon Empire!

At the other end of the battlefield, General Zorn, who was riding on a war horse, began to stutter even when he spoke, he looked at Arrant Lombark, a relative of the imperial family beside him, and asked in a trembling voice: "Just now, just now...... I, I saw ......"

"Yes, I, I saw it, I saw it......" Lombback is not much better than Zorn. Even if he saw a dragon sweeping through an infantry phalanx, he wouldn't be so alarmed, because at least that was still in his common sense.

But now, everything he saw seemed to be out of his comprehension. Something seemed to be shattered in his heart, and there was a fundamental shake.

"That one, that one...... Dragon, Falling ...... Fell? It took a long time for Zon to suppress his emotions and continue to ask in a trembling tone.

"Fell...... 500 people, and the dragon slaying was completed...... Oh my god. Rumbuck recalled what he had just seen and found an even more fatal question: "Before they slay the dragon, yes, they were in a state of war with us, right?" ”

"......" Zon wanted to curse, he had just seen a force that had slaughtered about 5,000 elite Arrant soldiers and killed a dragon knight before the whole army was wiped out......

"I%@#¥&*!" Unable to help it, Lombback first scolded the swear words that Zorn wanted to say. He breathed heavily after scolding, as if something had just choked his throat.

Looking at him, Zon remembered that he had been holding his breath for a while...... So, he also opened his mouth, scolded unscrupulously, and gasped.
