Chapter 226: A Storm on the Sea of Clouds

The dazzling sunlight shone on the vast plain of the sea of clouds, and the mist rose with the warm light, filling the atmosphere with a clear breath.

But the air now is extremely heavy for the White Skeleton Dragon.

The nervous breathing made its hands tremble as it held the crossbow arrows, and its eyes kept staring closely at the Yunhai Plain in front of it, not daring to take a moment off its sight.

On top of this city wall, there are hundreds of white dragons, who usually like to chat, but they do not make any sound at this time, and the almost suffocating atmosphere surrounds the group of white dragons, as if the end is coming......

"Don't be afraid." Tall golden statues stood beside the White Dragon, and their calm voices were the only consolation for the White Dragon.

"The creator is watching us, and we will win."

The plains of the sea of clouds now seem to be extremely calm, and around the top of the mountain that protrudes from the sea of clouds, there are some atmospheric creatures floating, which seem to wander leisurely, as if nothing in the world has anything to do with them.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, these atmospheric creatures all flew away.

"It's coming......" The captain of the White Skeleton Dragon stood on top of a cloud tower on the city wall, looking in the direction of the mountain peak.

If you listen closely, you can hear some rumbling sounds, some like thunder, and some like countless creatures running wildly.

The captain's eyes were fixed on the peak, his concentration making it seem like it couldn't even blink, and its grip on the weapon could almost squeeze out blood......

"Here we are...... Here it comes! ”

The captain's mouth suddenly made a sound, and he saw a small black dot appear on the Yunhai Plain in the distance.

Meanwhile. There are also countless black dots behind it......

"Worm...... Worm - !! An exclamation awakened the silence and tension, and the captain of the White Skeleton Dragon shouted with all his might from the tower, "They! Here they are! ”

The calm sea of clouds was now obscured by darkness, and thousands of insect swarms continued to pour out from around the top of the mountain, and they were like a storm and tsunami, dyeing the entire sea of clouds in a predominantly black color.

'Boom! Boom! The white dragons on the tower rang what was called a bell, and the reverberating sound announced the arrival of the enemy, and each of them walked to their rightful position, aiming their crossbow arrows in front of them, and the dragon in charge of the operation quickly climbed to the top of the giant crossbow.

In the distance. The army of the swarm is getting closer. These large insects have flat feet, which not only allow them to climb steep peaks, but also allow them to run through a sea of clouds without sinking.

Although there was no sound running in the sea of clouds, the footsteps of these giant insects were constantly echoing in the white skeleton dragon's mind. They struggled to steady their trembling hands. Hold the bolts in your hands......

Swarm. It's almost within range of them.

"Shoot! Shoot! ”

The towers on the walls suddenly rang out with the shouts of the captains, and the first beetle had already crossed the range line.

"Quack, ahhhh

At this moment, almost all the white dragons pulled the crossbow arrows in their hands. Countless arrows flew into the sky at this moment, and then fell like a torrential rain.

The rain of arrows fell on the wave of the insect swarm, thousands of giant insects advanced against the sharp showers, their carapace kept echoing with a crackling sound, some arrows hit the vulnerable parts such as the head and eyes of the giant insects, some giant insects fell in the sea of clouds because of a large number of arrows, and the companions behind it would step on its corpse without care, and the speed of the whole insect swarm did not slow down at all.

"The ballista starts shooting!"

Above the city walls, the roar of metal was heard, and the large crossbow bolts operated by the White Skeleton Dragon had begun to move.

These huge bolts don't look like regular bolts, they look like cylinders, with a large number of arrows at the head of the cylinder, and the white bones dragon sits next to the roller, which is controlled by a kind of rotating joystick.

As the joystick shook, the cylinder next to the White Skeleton Dragon began to spin, and under the sound of metal, spear-like arrows shot out one after another, and the rapid arrows slashed through the air, hitting a beetle's head.

The sharp arrow instantly pierced the beetle's head, and the huge beetle suddenly fell to the sea of clouds.

The ballistae on the walls of the city began to operate under the control of the White Dragon, they rotated rapidly with the speed of the White Dragon's movement, and the bolts continued to shoot out of the cylinder, while more arrows were continuously reeled into the ballista on the belt next to the ballista, providing the ballista with a steady stream of arrows.

Under the shot of the giant arrow, many beetles in front were pierced and fell to the ground, and were trampled into the sea of clouds by their companions behind them, but they were only a small number in the dense sea of insects, and their momentum was still not slow.

The White Skeleton Dragon built a huge cloud wall around the entire mountaintop, but the Inca swarm did not disperse its attack, and all the swarms concentrated in the direction of the east.

It seems that they intend to strike directly from one direction, and all the swarms are concentrated in this direction, which makes them seem denser than the sea and almost unstoppable.

"Quack, ahhhh The white dragon operating the ballista roared, and it kept spinning the ballista with all its might, as if intending to tilt all the arrows out.

"Gah?" Suddenly, it saw a ball fly in front of its eyes......

'Boom!! A violent roar rang out, and the White Skeleton Dragon and its ballista were blown away in an instant, turning into a pile of stumps and fragments and falling back to the city walls.

'Bang! At that moment, another orb flew towards the ballista on the wall.

The Cannon Bugs, a new breed of Inca swarms, are also the vanguard species used in this war, and they can shoot powerful explosive shells from their mouths.

But the bomb didn't fly high enough and crashed into the wall of clouds.

The orb slammed into the fragile looking cloud wall, and at the moment it hit it, it seemed to touch something very soft, and it bounced back before it even exploded, and the orb flew back into the swarm with a loud bang, blasting a hole in the sea of clouds and blowing off a large part of the shells of several nearby beetles.

The White Dragon's wall defenses seem to be revealed, and it is defended not by hardness, but by softness.

'Bang! The Inca swarm didn't care so much, and another bomb hit the cloudy wall.

'Boom!!!' This time, before the wall could bounce, the bomb exploded, creating a crater in the cloud wall.

But the crater is not very large, and the soft cloud wall absorbs a lot of impact.

"Gah! Fix it quickly! "When the dragons on the city wall saw that they were blown up below, they immediately took out something that looked like a cloud and threw it into the big hole in the wall.

The clouds stuck to the hole where they had been blown out, and they quickly bonded to the clouds there, repairing the blasted parts in an instant.

'Bang! However, the Inca swarm will not stop firing.

The swarm was almost under the cloud wall, and a large number of explosive shells were aimed at the ballistas on the wall, and most of them could not reach the top, and they crashed into the wall and exploded continuously.

In the case of the cloud wall being bombarded one after another, the entire cloud wall instantly became a potholed structure, and many explosive bombs were ejected back, causing a lot of damage to the swarm itself.

And the beetles that rushed under the cloud wall had already begun to climb up the cloud wall, and there were quite a few insects gnawing at the soft wall below.

However, the walls are extremely sticky, and many gnawing beetles are glued to the wall, while the walls that are not gnawed are not sticky, and they cannot stop the beetles from climbing up.

"Gah! They're coming! The dragon standing on the wall immediately shot at the swarm of insects climbing the wall.

The impact of the arrows can penetrate the shells of some beetles at close range, but many insects will continue to move forward even with arrows stuck in their heads, and one large beetle has already climbed up to the wall.

'Whoosh! ’

A golden spear pierced the beetle's head in an instant, and its massive body fell from the city wall.

"Quack!" The golden statues are already in battle, wielding their huge weapons to knock down all the beetles that climb up the wall, the golden axes they wield to slash their heads, and the golden spears that pierce through their shells.

However, they can only deal with the general kind.

In the sea of insects outside the wall, there are some giant insects that are particularly large.

Once known as the Earthbreakers, they are 30 to 40 meters long, covered in silvery armor, with giant jaws, and these are so large that they can sink into the sea of clouds due to their excessive weight.

But that was hundreds of years ago.

Earthbreaker's current form is similar to before, but there are a few differences.

A Earthbreaker looked at the golden statue of the beetle slashing at the walls, and it had made it its target.

The elytra behind the Earthbreaker suddenly opened, and four large membranous wings stretched out from it.

With the tremor of the membrane wings, this body of more than 30 meters actually floated into the air!

Moreover, it did not fly with its wings, as a dazzling flash of fire erupted from the tail of the Earth Splitter, and the giant insect suddenly rushed forward, rushing towards the cloud wall where the statue stood......

The Earthbreaker's impact instantly turned the wall of clouds into shattered clouds, and the statue and a ballista on the wall were instantly knocked into the sky.

Due to the high degree of cohesion of the cloud walls, the surrounding walls were affected when the Earthbreakers scattered the place, and they fell backwards, and a large number of white dragons and ballistas fell off the walls.

At the same time, a large number of beetles climbed the collapsed walls, the first line of defense of the White Skeleton Dragon...... Collapse on this. (To be continued......)
