Chapter 10: Monster Wars

The soldiers of the Guards stripped him of his armor, leaving only the helmet to prove his rank, tied his hands behind his back, and wrapped a thick rope around his waist several times, hanging from a log protruding from the city wall. Not far from him, there were several hanging Disaster officers, all of whom were unlucky people who were injured in the sneak attack last night, and now they all ended up in a public display, and they could only moan and sway.

From beginning to end, Ma Le's eyes were closed, even if he was swaying at a height of fifty meters above the ground, he did not have the slightest reaction.

The sapper in charge of lifting him also complained: "This guy is too heavy!" ”

"Huh? What is that? As soon as the sappers wiped their sweat, they noticed that in the direction of the forest, a large black bird had flown up, and it seemed to be rushing towards the fortress at great speed.

"That's not right! That's not a big bird, that's a black mayfly! As the "flock of birds" got closer and closer, a sharp-eyed sapper finally saw the truth and shouted: "Quick, pull the alarm, the black mayfly swarm has appeared!" ”

The alarm bell on the fortress of "Jingle Bell Jingle ......" was pulled towards it, and the soldiers who had just experienced last night's hard battle were still resting, and they were all frightened when they heard the alarm bell, and with last night's experience, they all put on their equipment as quickly as possible and rushed out of the camp to check.

"Where's the Scourge dog mongrel?!" The strong-blooded guards are gearing up one by one, but how can there be a shadow of half of the Scourge Legion on land?

But then, they felt that the ground was dark, as if it were cloudy. The soldiers of the guards looked up, all of them dumbfounded, and some of their weapons fell to the ground.

It's not dark clouds that shade the sun, it's patches of black mayflies! No, it should be said that it is a black dragon! While these creatures lived quietly on the distant Dragon Mountain, humans could tease them with their slightly playful names, and now, when these behemoths come to you and obscure the sun alive, you can only call them Black Dragons in awe!

There was no need for orders or reminders, the soldiers had already set up their bows and arrows and shot magic. The eight Ancient War Trees had also awakened, grabbing the boulder with the earth element and smashing it at the dragon in the sky. And the largest War Tree King in the center of the fortress also opened its deep, chapped eyes and looked at the dragons flying from the sky.

Unlike the average Ancient War Tree, the Tree King's weapon is not an ordinary stone, but a large, house-sized nut. This nut is the fruit of the tree's dense canopy. This fruit does not reproduce, and it does not contain seeds, but the concentrated earth element that the tree king absorbed from Mother Earth, once this fruit is thrown and exploded, the burst energy is dispersed, and the thorns on it, which are harder than steel, will fly in all directions, and the power that even the dragon's scale armor cannot bear.

And the group of black dragons in the sky was not to be outdone, they used their flexible advantages to dodge the shelling, and at the same time they breathed out high-temperature flames, and in just one bite, more than a dozen soldiers were burned. This breath is different from ordinary flames, once it comes into contact with it, it is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, no matter how much it slaps and rolls, it cannot be extinguished, and the ignited soldier can only struggle and scream until he dies in agony.

The elite masters of this fortress have already been dispatched, and most of the remaining soldiers are ordinary soldiers, whose bows and arrows and magic can hardly deal effective damage to the dragon, and the only ones that can do it may be the nine ancient trees of war. The cannonball, which is rich in earth elements, generally only needs one hit, it can make a black mayfly fall into the air, and even if it can't be killed, it can also make it lose the ability to fly and be besieged and killed by the soldiers on the ground.

The battle was fierce and fierce, both against the Guards and the Dragons. The attrition and casualties of both sides actually reached a strange balance in the desperate battle.

But this balance could not last forever, and finally, a huge figure joined in, adding a heavy weight to the scales of battle.

"Whew!!" An earth-shattering roar sounded, and a huge black dragon from a distance of fifty meters fell from the sky, its wings spread out like a curtain, enveloping half of the battlefield in shadow!

The owner of the Demon Dragon's Heart, the Black Dragon King, has appeared!

The Black Dragon King swept across the battlefield from a low altitude, opening his terrifying mouth with just one squirt, leaving a burning path, and hundreds of soldiers were burned to smithereens on the spot by this breath, and many more soldiers were contaminated by the flames, but this did not allow them to escape the clutches of death. The flames spread rapidly over them, and soon lit them into human torches one by one. Now they even have some envy for their companions who died on the spot, although their death was delayed by tens of seconds, but the pain was also prolonged......

After passing through the battlefield, the Black Dragon King did not stop attacking, it flapped its wings, jumped up and climbed directly on the city wall, at this time, a recent war ancient tree threw a boulder at it, and it was smashing on the face of the Black Dragon King, and the violent explosion made the Black Dragon Overlord can't help but turn his head sideways, but it seems that it has not caused any substantial damage.

But this attack succeeded in infuriating the Black Dragon King, and the ancient beast opened its mouth and spewed out a large area of scorching flames, instantly enveloping the ancient tree of war. As a spiritual ancient tree, the Ancient Tree of War is not as flammable as ordinary trees, although there are sporadic flames hanging on its body, and the bark is also scorched black, but it does not affect the movement, picking up a stone and throwing it again.

The Black Dragon King angrily swung his huge claws, shattering the stone in the air, and then grabbed the city wall with his thick limbs, and the sharp claws clawed the wall to pieces, accompanied by a loud bang, and threw himself at the ancient war tree with all four legs.

The enemy had already approached, and the War Ancient Tree had also given up its long-range attack, and directly swung its fists and smashed towards the Black Dragon King. However, whether it is size or strength, the War Ancient Tree is not the opponent of the Black Dragon King, the huge fist is as weak as a baby's arm in front of the Black Dragon King, the Black Dragon King bit the wrist of the War Ancient Tree, shook the dragon head a few times like a tiger, and stabbed it, and actually tore off the entire right arm of the War Ancient Tree!

......The ancient tree of war, which had always been calm and resolute, couldn't help but let out a roar of pain, and its huge and ancient body trembled incessantly, leaving green juice at the wound, and sprinkled all over the city with fluttering leaves.

The Black Dragon King spit out the half of his arm that was still trembling, the dragon's head was crooked, and he opened his big mouth and bit the big face of the ancient war tree sideways, and his upper and lower jaws were forced, so that the big mouth of the ancient war tree could not be closed. Immediately after that, the Black Dragon King took a deep breath, and a stream of heat surged up from his throat, aiming at the throat of the Ancient War Tree, and spewing out a hot breath!

The furious magical energy was not wasted at all, and all of it poured into the body of the ancient tree, wantonly destroying every fiber, causing the spiritual ancient giant tree to let out a miserable roar, struggling as if it was about to break free from the entrenched city wall. Eventually, its tree could no longer withstand the energy of the breath, and it finally exploded to pieces with a boom, accompanied by a wave of heat!

A tower fortress that has stood for hundreds of years on the lower road has finally been demolished just now!

The soldiers in the battle saw this and immediately fell into deep fear and helplessness.

Although this ancient war tree is only one of the eight turrets of the fortress, and there is also a tree king serving as the main cannon on it, its explosion does not have much impact on the overall strength of the fortress, but the soldiers who are already panicked will not calmly weigh this. They only know that this fortress has not been damaged for hundreds of years, and the ancient tree has not been killed for hundreds of years, and the fortress is a guarantee of safety, and the ancient tree is a symbol of strength. And today, this symbol has been torn down!

If you can tear down one tree, you can also tear down the second and third trees...... The more the soldiers of the Guards Regiment thought about it, the more frightened they became, their morale plummeted, their fighting spirit was completely lost, and without heroes in charge, it was difficult to prevent such a rout by relying solely on the remaining mid-level officers. The original battle turned into a one-sided slaughter on the Black Dragon's side, and dozens of soldiers were killed every second. The camp outside the fortress had been reduced to a sea of flames, and even the trading town had not been spared.

Merchants and civilians were worse off than soldiers, their houses collapsed, their homes destroyed, men running in panic, others staring blankly at the sky; Women cried bitterly with their children in their arms, or sat in a daze under the rubble; Children who can't find their parents, and old people who have been abandoned by their children, are all in despair under this fire and rain. Everyone wants to live, but they don't know where to flee. Because no matter which direction they looked, they could only see those black-skinned monsters seven or eight meters long killing and eating people......

The humans on the ground were fleeing, and the prisoners who were hanging on the top of the city did not have this ability, and the officers of the orcs and undead tribes began to struggle violently, but to no avail, only Ma Le still closed his eyes, as if the chaos in the outside world had nothing to do with him.

However, as the cause of the incident, Ma Le could not have been involved. The Black Dragon King killed the ancient war tree, and soon followed the smell to the place where the prisoners were hanged.

Looking at these guys hanging around outside the city, the Black Dragon King's sensitive nose identified the source of the smell, it was this bastard, he caused a large number of his own people to die tragically!

The Black Dragon King roared angrily, and a breath instantly enveloped the captives, and several officers of the Cataclysmic Legion were burned to the ground, only Ma Le, although his body was on fire, he still had a complete body. However, the rope that tied him couldn't stand the flames, and Ma Le's body lost its restraints and began to want to fall to the ground.

The Black Dragon King's eyes were quick, and he took a bite of Ma Le, biting hard to chew this guy, but he didn't want the bones of this little thing to be harder than iron, not only did he not bite it, but he almost broke his teeth. Although the Black Dragon King is smarter than ordinary beasts, it is not at the level of intelligent creatures, and it has never delved into things it does not understand, and instinctively tells it that if it wants to deal with this hateful human who has killed a large number of its people, it must eat him!
