Chapter 115: Wings of the Sky

Stan leans down to dodge a flat slash and lunges forward, slicing the ghoul in half. He quickly straightened up and raised his sword to block the demon that was rushing towards him from the other side, and the two swords collided violently. A beam of light flies from the side, and the demon senses the threat, pushes Stan's sword away and backs away. Stan didn't give him a chance to breathe, and rushed up to force the demon to fight with him again, and almost at the same moment, Nerfi's second arrow of light flew in time, piercing the demon who had just steadied himself and barely blocked Stan's attack.

Stan kicks the demon away and nods at Nerfi, the knight is almost exhausted and can't even lift his hand. Nerfi was not much better, mentally tired and physically exhausted.

"Go back to Adeline, I'll take it first. Stan could see the girl's tiredness.

Nerfi glanced under the city walls, and there was not much left of the front team of the dark tide, and the team behind them saw a large open space. "You be careful. The mage said, turning and running back.

A few steps after they had just run out, a sudden gust of wind blew from the sky, almost knocking the two of them to the ground, and Stan hurriedly ran over to help Nerfi. "Is it finally here...... Dragon!" the knight looked nervously ahead, and the sky in front of him was cloudy, and there was not a single gap.

The soldiers on the city wall were also unsteady on their feet by the sudden strong wind, and some soldiers were even blown off the city wall directly, and the heavy armor made it difficult for them to regain their balance once they lost their center of gravity. Several screams rang from behind the clouds, and black shadows approached the walls above the clouds.

"It's coming!" Adeline turned to Ness and Rui, who had already returned to her side. "It looks like there are no less than ten. ”

Niss nodded nervously and began to cast the spell, a scorching flame formed in front of the girl, the flames suspended in the air gradually grew larger, and several mages and guards began to sweat. Ruiya closed his eyes, and his shoulders began to exude a black aura, his long black hair fluttered upward, and a pair of purple-black wings fluttered and spread back.

The shadow finally pierced through the clouds, and several black dragons appeared only a hundred yards in front of the fortress, and the sharp screams accompanied by the strong wind made the soldiers on the city wall fall into fear, and the soldiers looked at the black dragon getting closer and closer in front of them in horror, and their hands and feet began to dull, and some soldiers even lost their weapons and fled into the fortress.

The shadow magic was activated first, Rui opened his eyes, and the black eyes also emitted a black breath outward, and the mage quickly chanted the spell, guiding the magic. The dim sky suddenly became darker, like the darkness before a blizzard, and for a moment, the soldiers on the walls and the dark tide were plunged into darkness, and the distance of vision dropped to within ten yards.

Immediately after, Ness's magic followed, and more than a dozen fireballs whistled and flew towards the last place where the black dragon had appeared, and the bright fireballs drew more than a dozen arcs in the sky. With several popping sounds, more than half of the fireballs hit the target, and the formation of the black dragon was disrupted, and two of the black dragons were hit by several fireballs, and their whole bodies burned. Obviously, these black dragons did not expect the fire magic that attacked them to be so powerful, and the two black dragons fell to the ground, rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies, but Ness's high-level fire magic also did not give them any chance, and the fire grew bigger and bigger, gradually engulfing the two black dragons.

Some of the remaining black dragons were also hit by the fireball, but they didn't pause and continued to fly towards the fortress with their wounds. Despite the consumption of her own spiritual power by high-level magic, Niss insisted on continuing to cast magic, and several balls of light flew towards the path of the black dragon, lighting up the sky and exposing the position of the black dragon.

Lucius had already run to the left side of the wall. "Dayton heroes, now is your time to put on a show, don't let the Ogden guys underestimate you!" said the King, swinging his sword at the black dragon illuminated by the orb of light in front of him.

The sound of wings flapping sounded from the walls, the Dayton soldiers raised their hands, and countless falcons spread their wings and flew into the dark sky. In the light of the ball of light, white or gray feathers quickly streaked across the sky, and each black dragon was surrounded by dozens of falcons. The falcons fearlessly pounced on the black dragon surrounded in the middle, tearing at the hard skin of the black dragon with their sharp beaks and claws, and the eagle falcons that had been specially trained before the war deliberately looked for the dragon's weak point to attack, and the eyes and abdomen of the black dragon were the targets of their intensive attacks.

The orb of light continues to illuminate the target for the falcon, but it also gives the Dark Tide on the ground a chance to shoot them. Bows and arrows kept shooting out of the hands of demons and ghouls, trying to stop the falcon's attack on the black dragon. But the falcon didn't care about these attacks at all, and still rushed towards the black dragon desperately, the black dragon swung its body, and the blood basin was tearing in all directions, but there was nothing it could do about the fast-moving falcon. The falcon that had been shot by a bow or hit a black dragon kept falling from the sky, scattered feathers floating all over the sky and slowly drifting towards the ground. With the feathers falling, there is also the blood of the black dragon, under the continuous attack of the eagle falcon, several black dragons were bitten in the abdomen and neck, and suddenly the blood flowed, and the two black dragons were even pecked in the eyes, they couldn't see anything, they could only flap their wings in the air.

The black dragons fell to the ground one after another, their internal organs peeking out of their abdomen, and the wounds were getting bigger and bigger, and the falcons were still pecking at these internal organs. The sky gradually calmed down, and the ground was full of falcon corpses, and some of the falcons that had fallen to the ground could no longer fly and were trampled to death by the dark tide on the ground. The terrible screams reached the city walls, and the cruel scene in front of them made the soldiers of Dayton heartbroken, the falcons that they had painstakingly trained were lost in an instant, and the strong soldiers could no longer bear it, and some of them had a gleam in their eyes.

However, the falcon managed to stop the black dragon's attempt to storm the city wall, and except for one black dragon that was already injured and was still slowly flying towards the city wall, the other black dragons were already lying on the ground, unable to fight anymore. On Lucius' orders, Dayton's soldiers whistled and summoned the falcon that was still alive. The sparse falcons flew back to the city walls, many still bloodstained, and all the soldiers raised their hands, but after the falcons landed, only a dozen soldiers stood on the hands of the surviving falcons.

The ball of light gradually dimmed, and the last black dragon had flown twenty yards away from the city wall, and a huge black shadow was looming. "Stan, don't let the Dark Tide come near me!" Nerfi shouted at Stan, and the mage raised his wand, casting light magic with the last bit of mental power. Three golden crossbow arrows slashed across the city wall and flew towards the black shadow, the black dragon had been severely injured by the falcon before, unable to move its body agilely, and after tilting to one side with all its strength, it was still shot by two crossbow arrows, one hit the black dragon's back, and the other hit the neck. The black dragon screamed in pain, and fell, falling in front of the wall, which was only five yards away.

The sky lit up again, back to its cloudy brightness. Ness and Rui used up most of their mental strength and fell to their knees with all their strength. Nerfi was almost exhausted, and she wanted to run back to Adeline by herself, but she had to run back with Stan.

After the Black Dragon was eliminated, the soldiers on the city wall regained their morale and stopped the last wave of the dark tide in front of the city wall.

Stan places Nymphy next to Ness and Rui and stands up and looks ahead. I saw that the city wall was full of dark tides and the corpses of soldiers, and the height was almost only about ten yards from the top of the city wall, and the knight looked towards the dense dark tide rear team in the distance. "How many of us are left?"

"A third, maybe less. Elonhan looked solemnly ahead.

"We couldn't withstand the second wave of attacks. Adeline's gaze swept over the corpse-strewn walls, the soldiers who had finally found a chance to breathe were bandaging each other's wounds, and Bothalus and Lucius were both wounded, both of them trying to cheer up the soldiers who were still alive. "And the dragon, I can feel it, the ethereal spirit is also close......"

"What do you mean, are you saying we lost?" Stan raised his voice and questioned the Grand Sage.

Adeline ignored him and looked back at Elonhan. "Tell Botarus and Lucius to retreat, and then give a yellow signal for the cavalry to stay out of here. ”

"What?!, do you give up?, are all these dead soldiers dead in vain!?" Stan's face flushed, and the veins on his head bulged.

"If we don't retreat, we'll be annihilated. Adeline looked at Stan calmly, her tone flat.

"No! I'm going to fight until the last moment, I'm going to die with these soldiers!" Stan tightened his grip on the obsidian sword, which was already stained with black, solidified blood.

Adeline didn't say anything more, and turned to look at the dark tide in the distance. "Go ahead, Elonhan, they won't give us much time to retreat. ”

Stan threw his obsidian sword to the ground, falling to his knees in pain, his fists slamming into the ground in pain. "Why, we fought so desperately, so many soldiers, their families are still waiting for them, they don't know what it means to fight the Dark Tide, but they have left their lives here forever, and we, now, are going to leave them behind and flee here!" Two tears dripped from Stan's drooping head and fell between the knight's clenched fists.

Nerfi struggled to prop herself up, looking at Stan sympathetically, her eyes moistening.

Adeline sighed and turned to the guards. "Why don't you go yet? The attack of the Dark Tide is coming...... Elon Han?"

The Great Sage's puzzled tone made everyone look at Elonhan, only to see the guard look into the distance with a solemn face, and the left hand holding the scabbard was bruised.
