Chapter Twenty-Eight: An Unexpected Reversal
This time I really planted it.
First let Zanzes lead the army to fight with him, and deliberately sold a few flaws to come out, and at the same time secretly shielded his perception with soul concealment magic and invisibility techniques, so that Zandrotus could hide and wait for the opportunity to launch an interception?
One link after another, the illusion and the real are intertwined, which is really a wonderful strategy......
Ello's eyes darkened for a while, and the sharp pain of his body being pierced mixed with the sharp pain of his wings being broken, desperately tearing at his nerves. If it weren't for the even more terrible pain he had experienced in the Iota Arena before, Iroh believed that he would definitely faint at this moment.
Gasping for breath, Iroh struggled to ease his pain, knowing that if something like that happened, there really would be no chance at all!
That's right, even in such a desperate moment, Iroh still didn't give up, his brain was still running fast, looking for a breakthrough.
And then...... Mutations appear.
"My uncle, I think...... It's up to me to give this order. ”
Zan Rotus's words directly made Zandus's smile stiffen on his face.
"What do you mean?"
As if realizing something, Zanzes retracted his smile and stared viciously at the fire giant. As if realizing that the situation was wrong, the kobolds and ogres around them couldn't help but stop, paying attention to the changes here.
"My uncle, it is clear that your plan has failed. Zan Rotus stepped forward, his calm voice full of coldness, "We agreed before, and we acted according to our respective plans. Now it seems that I am more powerful than you and better suited to lead this army...... Accept the kindness of the Ironstone Tribe!"
"The bird's wings are stiff, huh?"
Zanzes took a sip, "If I hadn't delayed this dragon and consumed so much of his strength, would you have won easily?"
"It looks like we've agreed. ”
Zan Rotus reached back, and an ogre immediately handed over a new greatsword.
"Then I'll let you know that you're not mature enough!"
Zanzes laughed angrily, and the chill on the Ice Greatsword seemed to increase a little in an instant. This seemed to be a signal, and the surrounding kobolds, ogres, and Mona and Glenn immediately stepped out of the way, giving way to the two fire giants.
In some ways, giants and dragons are similar, such as arrogance.
At this moment, the two fire giants who disobeyed each other, after defeating the great enemy Ello, in order to be able to completely establish their prestige, actually started the competition directly.
Ello's eyes lit up, and he instinctively realized a hint of a turnaround, but he didn't act rashly.
Wait...... The state of affairs is still unclear......
On the other side, the battle between the two fire giants began in an instant.
Obviously, the contradiction between the two has been a long time, and this moment finally broke out, and there was no extra nonsense, Zandis raised his hand and condensed a few ice blades to shoot towards Zandrotus.
Both of them are fire giants, and they both know that each other's resistance to fire is high, so they coincidentally choose ice as their means of attack - it's not that fire giants can't use ice, it's just that they are easier and prefer to control fire.
If you are facing the enemy, it is naturally better to use fire. However, when fighting against the same clan, the effect of fire is not great.
Looking at the ice blade shot at him, Zan Rotus nimbly dodged sideways, he did not stop, and rushed straight to Zandes' side.
"Humph!"
Zanzes looked at his nephew who was rushing straight at him with a calm face, and met him without fear.
"Boom!"
"Smack!"
"Wow!"
Both of them were brave fire giants, Zandes was experienced and skillful, while Zandus was younger and more crazy, and for a while the fight was even better.
The battle between them was so fierce that the kobolds and ogres around them watched the battle unfold with their eyes intent, almost forgetting that the Icourt Valley had not actually been taken yet.
However, Iroh didn't take the opportunity to try to escape. There are too many enemies around, not to mention an ogre with a dagger around his neck, even if the two fire giants are fighting, there are still two masters, Mona and Glenn, who are eyeing each other.
Remains...... Not the timing!
Soon, the situation changed again.
After another few dozen seconds, the two fire giants separated, both glaring at each other breathlessly.
"Poor bird, you're too tender!"
Zandus laughed sarcastically, he had the right to laugh, because he had clearly the upper hand in the battle just now: Zandrotus had a deep sword wound on his body, and although he was covered with the scars of the ice blade, the situation was still more favorable to him at the moment.
He knew that this nephew of his was the biggest competitor at the moment. It's just that the two of them haven't had a chance to really fight each other for a long time, and now that the fall of the Icourt Valley is just around the corner, just knock this guy down again...... I think that with this merit, the Ironstone Tribe will fully support itself to establish a stronghold in this area!
However, he was greeted by a strange smile from Zanerotus.
"Is that really the case, my reckless uncle?"
"What are you talking about?!"
Zanzes's expression changed suddenly, and just as Zanzrotus's words fell, he suddenly felt a wave of paralysis quickly spread from his heart to his whole body!
"Can't move, can you?"
Zandrotus spat hard, covering the wound with one hand and slapping Zandes in the face with the hilt of his sword with the other, "After exercising for so long, it's time for a seizure...... How does Master Glenn's special paralyzing poison taste?"
"You!"
Zanzeston's face turned pale, and as a fire giant who commanded a large group of thugs, he was certainly not an idiot, and he would have reacted.
Zarotus was in charge of ambushing Iroh before, but Mona was the only one who had been blessed with covert magic for him, and Glenn only needed to use that skill to help him disguise - so what did Glenn do in the intervening time?
There was only one answer: Glenn waited for an opportunity to sneak up on him and put the poison into his body.
Glenn is a very skilled killer, and Zanzes originally thought that he and Mona were acting as emissaries of the Ironstone tribe to oversee the war...... Didn't they realize that they had already chosen Zan Rotus?
Seeing his uncle close his eyes in despair, Zan Rotus pierced the other party's heart mercilessly, then sneered and withdrew his greatsword and walked in front of Iro.
"It's over, is there anything else to say, little dragon?"
Iroh looked at him in silence, without a hint of fear in his eyes.
"I hate the look in your eyes!"
A nameless fire came out of Zan Rotus's heart, he had already won, he was the strongest, shouldn't this kind of look be reserved for the loser?
Damn big lizard, and still look down on yourself?
Thinking of this, Zan Rotus directly pushed the ogre aside, reached out and grabbed the giant sword that pierced through Iro, and then pulled it out hard!
"Uh-"
The sudden pain caused Eloh to let out a low cry, and then large strands of dragon blood spurted out as if they were not for money, staining the nearby ground scarlet.
"Skinned him for me, eat roast dragon meat today!"
With a wave of his hand, Zan Rotus put the blade to his mouth with a sly smile, tasting the dragon's blood on it: "And it's baked right here." I want you to see with your own eyes how you were eaten, as you are now......"
The next moment, the fire giant fell without warning, his pupils dilated, and he directly lost the breath of life.
"Dead, dead?"
Glenn hurriedly stepped forward, but the results of the examination showed that the other party was indeed dead in an instant.
Mona and the crowd of onlookers were so shocked that they couldn't figure out why Zarotus had died in an instant, even if they wanted to break their heads.
And while everyone was still in shock, Iroh suddenly moved.
With a mysterious chant, a huge magic hand suddenly appeared in the void and grabbed Glenn!
"Bigby's Talisman!" he cried out in horror.
How is this possible...... Obviously he was already so badly injured, even a young dragon couldn't still have the strength to launch such a high-level magic, right?
That's right, this is the moment Iroh has been waiting for!
He knew the cruel and bloodthirsty nature of the fire giants, and he knew that their arrogance would not be inferior to that of the red dragon. So at the moment of Zanzes's defeat, Iroh realized that he had to gamble - bet that Zandrotus would be able to win his own agitation and no longer suppress his nature.
As long as he eats his own flesh, even if it is only a little...... That's it!
Enduring the weakness of his body, Iroh clenched his left claw fiercely, and the magic hand was also clenched, only to hear a muffled sound, Glenn was immediately pinched to the point that his whole body bones were shattered, and he vomited blood and died!
"Damn, withdraw!"
Mona's heart was beating for a while, and he watched as Iroh turned his head suddenly, and hurriedly took out a scroll from his place and tore it open.
Then his whole body was directly enveloped in a blue light - it was teleportation magic, and he was going to escape!
It's not ......
There was a hint of unwillingness in Iroh's eyes, he had been accumulating strength, but he had also continued to lose blood due to injury, and now it was a bit extraordinary to be able to kill Glenn with one blow.
But if you don't kill Mona...... I'm afraid that when he returns to the Ironstone Tribe, he will tell everything about here.
In that case, the next time you come to crusade against you, it won't just be the fire giant!
However, it seems that fate just likes to joke. Before the blue light on Mona's body had disappeared, a black slit appeared at his feet.
The space emitted a sharp whistling sound, as if the sound of metal cutting through the glass was amplified ten thousand times, extremely harsh, the black gap became larger and larger, and the chaotic energy and various deadly energy streams from the void suddenly surged, venting the violent destructive power, and blasted Mona into ashes in the first time.
And so on...... I'll die too!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ailuo gritted his teeth fiercely, and the dragon crystal, which was already close to exhaustion, was stimulated again, and the will to survive suddenly squeezed out the last trace of energy in the dragon crystal.
Teleportation at a fixed point, activation!
In the next instant, Iroh returned to the castle hall with his previous coordinates.
Fighting for the imminent disappearance of consciousness, Iroh communicated the faith exchange contract as quickly as possible, and then spent a thousand faith points to exchange for a bottle of high-grade healing potions, and drank it all.
Then, having lost all his strength, Iroh could no longer hold back his fatigue, and after confirming that he was safe, he closed his eyes and passed out.
And at the entrance to the valley in the distance, all the kobolds, ogres, and ferocious bats under the blow of the Void storm were like ice and snow thrown into boiling water, melted by the impact of the violent energy flow, or torn into countless pieces of flesh and blood.
In just a dozen seconds, this land was cleared!
