Chapter 732: This Is My Escape Route!
Ankahet was an out-and-out enemy-occupied area, and Sarean and Onexia made a lot of noise by destroying the guards and capturing the Faceless, and the Fallen patrolling nearby soon discovered the anomaly.
As soon as Sarren and Onexia spread their wings and lifted into the air, at least hundreds of Fallen surrounded them, refining the void energy in their bodies and casting spells remotely on the two dragons in the air.
Onexia, who was the first to open the way, was completely unintimidated, and a mouthful of Shadow Flame Dragon Breath spewed over.
Influenced by Deathwing, Onexia has two different attributes, Shadow and Earth, and her dragon's breath naturally contains a certain amount of Void power.
The same forces collide with each other, and the higher quality side will inevitably swallow the lower side.
Sarayan and the others sneaked along the way, but they had never seen a Fallen who was superior to Onexia in terms of strength, and the entire Fallen race should not have it.
Onexia's dragon's breath left a churning lava "scar" on the ground, and all the void spells that attacked her were forcibly devoured by the Shadow Flame Dragon's Breath without a splash.
As a derivative of the Nirub, the Fallen are stronger in land warfare, but air warfare......
To use a not-so-appropriate analogy, is it wrong to ask an earthworm that can only drill into the ground to lead to the air?
[This is my escape route!] You oil the road! γ
[Fortunately, the Nilubu people dug up a big gap in the underground space, otherwise this place is really difficult to fly. γ
As the barrage said, the difference between the height and the bottom of the underground where the ancient kingdom of Ankahet is located is at least 100 meters, and I don't know how many years it took the Nilub people to dig out such a large underground space.
Such a large space allows Onexia and Salian to spread their wings and fly without worrying about hitting the ceiling as soon as they take off.
With her strong defense, Onexia opened the way in front, and the spells of the Fallen hit her painlessly, unable to break the defense.
Saljan's front paws still gripped the faceless one that had been knocked unconscious, and the dense density of fallen people on the ground made him understand the psychology of the dense phobia that the barrage had previously spoken.
The further you advance to the upper echelons of the Eldronerub Line, the more exaggerated the number of the Fallen becomes, almost to the point of overcrowding.
Despite their low intelligence, the Fallen are like worker bees commanded by the queen bee, are highly disciplined, and can show great coordination when attacking enemies.
After receiving an order from their superiors, tens of thousands of fallen people on the ground unleashed a variety of long-range spells into the air in unison.
Onexia is not afraid of these injuries, but Sarean can't rely on her perverted physicality to fight the past like she does.
As a last resort, Onexia took a deep breath and spewed the Shadow Flame Dragon's Breath down again as she flew at high speed.
The powerful dragon's breath created a small vacuum in the crowd, disrupting the Fallen's otherwise neat pace.
β¦β¦
At the same time, the elite Fadore scouts, led by Hista, returned to the border defenses of Eldronerub first.
Due to the language barrier between the two sides, the Elder Janirub soldiers who stopped Fadore did not know what they were talking about at first.
Fortunately, body language is common across all races.
Under the explanation of the Fadore scouts, the generals guarding the border generally understood what they meant.
"The Fallen will soon launch a massive attack?"
The general, who belonged to the Crypt Spider Demon Clan, was a little skeptical.
In accordance with the past practice, in order to reduce attrition and avoid the lack of replenishment, the Fallen will not attack again after each attack in a short period of time, and will first "digest" the Edjanirum who have been captured by them.
Before Sarian and the others infiltrated Ankahet, the defenders on the border had just repelled a new attack by the Nirub Bugs, and it stands to reason that they would not attack again so soon.
As a member of the Nirub aristocratic crypt spider demons, the general named Anucinsky has his own intelligence channels, and has vaguely learned about the recent events in the royal city, and it is said that foreign reinforcements are about to arrive.
The spider-form Fadolei resembled the Nirub in appearance, but were very different in nature, and Anuczynski could tell at a glance that they were so-called foreign reinforcements.
Considering the position and attitude of his royal brother, Anuchinsky hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to trust these foreign friends who could not communicate in words.
"Climb the walls! All on alert! Get all your ballistas ready to fire! β
As it turned out, Anuchinsky made the right choice.
The unknown defenders of Eldronirub had just returned to their posts at the order, and before they had time to wonder, the sound of fierce fighting could be heard from the depths of the lower passage, which had already calmed down.
The size of the Crypt Spider Demon was too large for Anuchinsky to stand on the walls, and with his height, he could directly climb over the 5-meter-high walls to see the scene outside.
A large number of degenerates were crowding out from the depths of the passage, different from the previous orderly attack, and the formation of the degenerates was somewhat scattered, which made Anucinsky very puzzled.
Soon, however, his questions were answered.
"Aang!
β
A huge black dragon flying in the sky spewed flaming dragon breath while flapping its wings violently and swept over the swarm, followed by its smaller kind, who had been wearing gold all the time.
ββ¦β¦ Dragon? β
Anuchinsky, who was born into a nobleman, was also a person who had seen the market, and was stunned for a few seconds when he saw the two dragons flying high.
"Why are there dragons underground? And...... Why rushed out of Ankacht? β
Although there are still many questions in my head, it is clear that this is not the time to get to the bottom of it.
Anuczynski remembered his duty and shook his head to put his messy thoughts aside.
"Ballista fire! Avoid friendly forces in the air and hit me hard! β
"Boom!"
Eldronerub is also an ancient race that has developed for tens of thousands of years, due to the lack of communication with the outside world, their technology and magic development are relatively backward, but they are not far behind, but they do not have firearms.
Large-caliber bolts from the Nirub's specially made ballistae smashed into the Fallen's stormtroopers, further disrupting their already somewhat scattered formation.
As Anuchinsky commanded the battle, he focused part of his attention on the two dragons that were constantly approaching.
Noticing the deformed tentacle creature clutching under the claws of the smaller golden dragon, Anucinsky's boy shrank abruptly, recalling the ancient history he had read in books as a child.
"That's ...... The Faceless?! β
For the vast majority of Nirubu, the Faceless One is a legend that exists only in history books.
But Anuchinski knew that as the microphone of the Old Gods, the Faceless Ones had never really stayed away from the Nirub civilization, and they lurked in dark corners that the general public could not observe.
Admittedly, Anuczynski had never seen the Faceless One with his own eyes, but through his higher education as a child, he was able to identify the deformed tentacle monster at a glance.
The appearance of the Faceless Ones made Anucchins realize that there was a turning point for the overall situation, and he forced himself to concentrate, shouting orders in a high voice, and devoting all his energy to commanding the battlefield.
Escaping the danger and returning to the rear of the friendly lines, the nerves of Salian and Onexia were finally soothed, and the exhaustion suppressed by adrenaline was reversed exponentially.
Even Onexia, who is immensely physique, is deeply tired from spitting dragon breath many times in quick succession, let alone Sarjan.
Even with Onexia up front to draw most of the firepower, Sarren would never have gone unscathed in this breakout.
Fortunately, his vitality is strong enough, and the parts injured by the fallen will soon heal automatically.
But while using his life force to constantly repair his wounds, Sarean's physical strength is also rapidly depleting.
SalΓ©an didn't even get to his feet when he landed behind the wall, and the huge dragon body staggered to the ground on three legs.
In order to avoid falling to the ground in embarrassment, Sarlian immediately reverted back to his human form, stepping on the faceless one he had thrown on the ground as a support to stabilize his body.
After Onexia retracted her wings and landed, she quickly turned into a human form, and rushed up with an arrow to support Sarren, who was unstable in his center of gravity.
"Are you alright?"
"Whew~" Sarjan, who was a little pale, let out a breath of turbidity and reluctantly smiled at Onexia: "It's okay, it's just a little out of strength." β
"Sure enough, under the crazy attack of thousands of troops and horses, I can't do the legendary ten thousand flowers, and I don't get a leaf on my body."
Onexia rolled her eyes angrily: "Don't joke at this time, or you go and rest first, I'll come and see this guy." β
"No, you don't."
Sarian raised his hand and rubbed his temples heavily to lift his spirits: "We don't have that time, do you still have the energy to spare?" Pry important information out of the Faceless Person's head as quickly as possible. β
"I suspect that there may be some shady covert collaboration between Yogsaron and the Lich King, otherwise it would not explain why they launched a massive attack at the same time as they were so tacit."
