Section 181, Airborne Combat

Wimsalak exclaimed, "All the dragon soldiers attack, let these lowly creatures learn the true power of the ancients!" As soon as the Chief General said this, all the wyverns who were hovering in the sky waiting for orders began to swoop down to the ground.

This posture is really scary! Just now, when the wyverns just flew out of the black clouds, they just flew closer to the ground first, and then attacked tentatively. Now, all the wyverns are starting to dive at full speed and slaughter the army of trolls, looking unstoppable!

The wyverns quickly rushed through the heavenly magic shield. The volume of the protective cover is large, and the space inside is still very large. If the dragons fly in, the Bat Troll Knights will be able to engage in aerial combat with them!

"Batrider, up!" Hakka was in danger and gave an order, "Let these tyrannical black dragons taste our strength!" "So, three thousand bat troll knights surrounded the wyverns who rushed in!

Compared to these massive wyverns, a troll knight riding a bat is not worth mentioning at all. The Wyverns, the Dragoon Mages and Dragoon Archers on their backs saw the Batriders surround and began to attack!

"Whoosh", "boom, boom", "crackling", "whoosh"

"Ahh "Wow!" "The dragon soldier's attack is too strong!" "For Haka, fight with them!"

Wyverns open their mouths to spit out fireballs that can burn a Batrider to slag. The dragon archers have very strong arms, and they can fire arrows from great distances when they draw their longbows made with the secret method of black dragons. The distance inside the magic shield is also within the effective range of the Dragoon archers, so their hit rate is very high, and they can take the life of a bat rider with a single draw.

However, the most terrifying are the dragon mages who cast spells. The lightning magic they cast automatically converges in the air and fires it in one direction, knocking down all the Batriders in their path. The batrider who was struck by a series of lightning bolts was directly electrocuted into a ball of charcoal, and he didn't even have a chance to scream, so he just fell.

However, the Bat Troll Knights aren't fish to be slaughtered! They are supported by numerous troll ranged attackers on the ground, and they themselves use bows and arrows to shoot or throw poisoned axes at the dragons. The ranged attackers on the ground are constantly attacking the dragons, but the results are not ideal.

Wyverns and draconians wear highly defensive armor, and each wyvern has a dragon warrior on its back who holds a giant shield in both hands for defense. This special type of defensive warrior will spread a 180° stance on the dragon's back when holding a giant shield, mitigating ranged physical and magical attacks, and providing protection for the Dragoon Mage and Dragoon Archer behind them.

Although the trolls were overwhelmingly superior in numbers, the dragon soldiers came prepared, well-equipped, and well-trained, and were able to immediately gain a local advantage in the face of a large army of trolls. The dragon mages shot down four or five bat troll knights with a series of lightning flashes, and with the dragon spitting fireballs and the dragon archers shooting non-stop, there was no way for so many bat knights to stop the dragon soldiers from parachuting!

Soon, a few dragons rushed to the front and flew very close to the ground, and the dragon soldiers on their backs jumped down and defended themselves on the spot against the swarming army of trolls. The wyverns in the back also flew towards the landing position, spitting fireballs at the surrounding troll warriors as they flew, preventing them from approaching the dragon soldiers who had already landed in the air.

Dante was frustrated to find that the trolls' ranged attacks hit the armor of the wyvern and dragon soldiers, and the effect was not very good, and many of the attacks did not cause damage to the black dragon, and were bounced off by the armor!

If you want to convert, a flying dragon, doing nothing, standing in place and waiting for the trolls to fight, can easily withstand the attacks of about five trolls. Note that this has not done any harm yet. In order to deal effective damage, it requires at least ten trolls to keep besieging you. If they had to be killed, twenty trolls would have the hope of killing the wyvern quickly in a short period of time.

The dragon soldiers can't be calculated like this because they are all fighting in groups of four, but the four dragon soldiers have a clear division of labor, and their equipment and combat literacy are very strong, and they feel that their combat effectiveness is stronger than that of a single flying dragon! Once the dragon group has gained a foothold, twenty trolls together may not guarantee that they will be defeated!

The frequency of the wyvern spitting fireballs is not very slow, and after each fireball, it takes about five seconds to take a deep breath before spitting, and the fireballs will cause explosive damage in the troll crowd, and the power is very high. The Dragon Mage and Dragon Archer attack more frequently, utilizing the method of alternating attacks, with little to no gap.

As soon as the battle began, the disadvantages of the trolls were fully revealed, and the black dragon was simply a tyrant compared to the trolls.

"Batriders!" At this critical juncture, Haka exclaimed, "For the glory of the Empire, it is time for you to die!" Blow them up! ”

"For Haka!" "For the Empire!"

As soon as Haka said this, the bat troll knights took out something similar to a syringe and thrust it into their bat mounts. The bat mounts were injected with something from this thing, and they became very crazy, and their flight speed doubled in an instant! The Bat Troll Knights rushed towards the Wyverns at unimaginably high speeds!

The Wyverns and Dragons immediately noticed these anomalies, and launched an even more violent attack on the batriders who had crashed into the explosion, but at this point, the advantage of the trolls' forces began to show. There are so many bat troll knights flying at high speed that the dragon soldiers can't shoot down all the bat riders who come close in time!

"Boom Boom"

What a tragic scene!

Many of the Bat Troll Knights pulled off their explosive bottles when they were about to hit the Wyverns, crashing head-on with the Wyverns, and perishing with the Wyverns! All of a sudden, huge fireballs exploded in the sky, and the fragments of corpses that were blown apart mixed with blood, internal organs, and armor fragments flew everywhere in the sky and fell to the ground!

Dante couldn't tell whether the pieces of the corpse that fell to the ground belonged to the black dragon or the troll, and they were burned to slag.

All it takes is one Batrider to blow a Wyvern and its four dragon soldiers to pieces! However, in order to rush over and crash into the Wyvern, you must first be killed by at least three Batriders. That is, the Troll Batrider fights against the Wyvern at the cost of four for one, and that's not counting the losses that surrounded the Wyvern just now and was shot down!

"Kill, kill those dragon soldiers who have jumped to the ground!" Haka looked at the troll knights in the sky who had died generously, and continued to command loudly, "Don't let the heavenly brethren shed in vain! ”

"Roar!" "For Haka!" "For the Empire!"

Once on the ground, the trolls have a considerable advantage, after all, the sky is the home of the black dragon. The subsequent dragons were destroyed by the bat riders' self-explosion, and the dragon soldiers who landed early were cut off and lost their support, even though they had far superior combat power to the trolls, they were still torn to pieces by the troll warriors who came up like a tide.

After a fierce and bloody battle, a total of 800 wyverns and 3,200 dragon soldiers were killed. These were the ones who rushed to the front after Wimsalaq gave the order to attack. Seeing such a tragic battle situation, the flying dragons and dragon soldiers behind seemed to be afraid, and they actually slowed down, stopped diving, and circled in the sky.

They may have never encountered such strong resistance, and they may not be able to withstand such a shocking impact psychologically, and they do not know what to do for a while.

And the trolls on their side......

Three thousand bat troll knights have been wiped out in the air battle, and the troll army has lost air supremacy! In the case of the ground forces, about a thousand or so troll warriors were killed in battle, and about a thousand were seriously wounded. Although the army of trolls still has an advantage in terms of strength, how can the trolls fight against the Black Dragon Legion without air supremacy?

The Black Dragon Legion now has 1,200 Wyverns and 4,800 Dragon Soldiers. But what worried Dante the most were Wimsalaq and Nesario, who were watching the battle in the sky......
