Chapter 209 One-Sided War
Soon, a dense army of monsters appeared on the horizon. The starving enemies charged towards Dragonfang City without any formation or strategy. The green dragons and dragon beasts in the sky were the first to attack, flying close to Dragonfang City. The green dragons spewed corrosive poisonous breath at the army on the city walls, but the runes engraved on the walls activated at this moment, forming an invisible energy field that blocked these deadly poisonous attacks.
Then the dragon-hunting crossbows placed on the city wall immediately fired a volley, shooting down six dragon beasts on the spot, their fate unknown. The green dragons then noticed these deadly crossbow bolts and unleashed their magic to bombard them. However, those magics were once again blocked by the energy field, but the runes on the city wall began to dim, clearly indicating that they were about to give way.
At the same time, Otto carried Warwick into the air, with the chimeras and manticores following closely behind, charging towards the dragons in the sky. Otto swung his claw and struck the head of the largest green dragon, the force of which tore a gash in the dragon's scales. While Otto distracted the green dragon, Warwick leaped onto its back. A wolf howl echoed through the sky, and a hundred-meter-tall phantom of a wolf god appeared in mid-air. Its inviolable pressure instantly terrified the dragons. Then, immense pressure pressed down on the dragons and the lizardmen's pterosaur forces, pinning them to the ground, unable to move. In the end, these aerial forces were surrounded by the lizardmen and gnolls under Agred's command, and the chimeras and manticores also chased after them to help the ground forces subdue the dragons.
Seeing this, the green dragons, who were not greatly affected, turned their attention to Warwick. They spewed out their venomous breath at Warwick again. Because the green dragons had a strong immunity to their own kind's breath, they were not afraid of accidentally injuring their allies.
Seeing this, Warwick exerted his power, causing his body to swell into a ten-meter-tall giant wolf. At the same time, Warwick opened his mouth and terrifying light blades emanated from it, striking in all directions. In an instant, the wings of the three green dragons were cut off and they fell to the ground.
Upon seeing this, Yorick on the city wall was immediately inspired. He then ordered the dragon-hunting crossbows to fire at the wings of the green dragons. This method proved effective. Although the dragon-hunting crossbow bolts could not cause any substantial damage to the dragons or even break their scales, their fragile wings were a different story.
The jackals, understanding the unspoken message, launched another volley of fire. Two green dragons were hit and fell to the ground. The cunning and suicidal green dragons, seeing the situation was dire, lost their will to fight and hurriedly flapped their wings to flee the battlefield. Otto and Warwick did not give chase; their strength was still too weak, and these green dragons were truly determined to escape and they could not stop them.
Warwick then used his Wolf's Heart attack to finish off the mature green dragon he had been firmly controlling. The bloodline of the Wolf God gave Warwick a legendary level of combat power from the start. Warwick's current starting point was already beyond the reach of many. Under Agreed's careful tutelage, Warwick definitely had the potential to become a god like the Titans. Given time, his achievements would certainly not be inferior to those of Gaia and Kognus.
Otto swallowed hard as he looked at Warwick, who was covered in blood. No wonder his master valued him so much; with such amazing strength, he was probably unmatched in the army except for his master.
Meanwhile, the battle below was reaching its climax. The tree spirit used its body as a siege ladder to help the lizardmen climb the city walls. However, the lizardmen and jackals who had been waiting there immediately thrust their prepared bone spears straight down. Because the enemy's leather armor did not provide full coverage, the enemy was losing men at an extremely dangerous rate, despite the advantage of being on high ground. But the lizardmen did not back down because their racial trait, the 'killing instinct,' began to kick in.
This is a protective mechanism that the lizardmen have evolved over a long period of evolution. When a lizardman is in this state, he or she will be controlled by the fighting instinct from his or her bloodline, lose his or her reason and become a berserker with a zero collapse rate but also zero intelligence.
To be honest, their desperate and fearless spirit makes many creatures try to avoid fighting the lizardman clan. After all, the toughest fear the most reckless. However, as the leader of the lizardman clan, how could Tiga not know this characteristic of the lizardmen? So, after the lizardmen got carried away, Tiga opened the city gates wide and released the Hydra and the Abyss Multi-Headed Lizard, which rushed into the lizardman ranks and knocked down the tree spirits. Instantly, a large number of lizardmen were pressed down by the tree spirits and fell silent.
At the same time, the Chameleon Squad appeared behind the enemy. They took out specially made poisonous thorns and began to launch inhumane sneak attacks and backstabs from behind the enemy. These poisonous thorns were made of specially made highly poisonous plants. These natural toxic proteins would destroy the enemy's immune system and nerve tissue at an extremely fast speed. Within ten minutes, the poisoned enemies would lose their fighting ability, while those lizardmen who were driven by their killing instincts and whose blood flow accelerated would die even faster.
Hydra, along with the Abyssal Hydras, instantly rammed all the lizardmen clinging to the city wall, sending them flying. At the same time, he and the Abyssal Hydras relentlessly pursued the thousand-year-old tree spirits. Meanwhile, the chameleons were poisoning the logistics troops stationed far behind. The chameleons' enormous lung capacity, their retractable tongues, and their extremely high resistance to venom allowed them to daringly extend the range of their poison needles to about four hundred meters. Of course, four hundred meters was the maximum range; to maintain accuracy, the chameleons could only guarantee hitting their target within about two hundred meters.
However, the number of poison needles was limited. In no time, the chameleons ran out of ammunition and had to pack up their equipment and retreat from the battlefield. At this time, the Hydra and the Abyss Hydra had destroyed the thousand-year-old tree spirits and then crushed their way out of the lizardmen's encirclement. Immediately afterwards, the minotaur army rushed out of the city gate and launched another wave of attacks on the lizardmen. The minotaur's charge directly divided the battlefield and split the enemy army into several parts. The Minotaur raised his alloy battle axe and let out the minotaur's war cry. Then the minotaur once again launched the minotaur's charge skill 'War Stomp' and shattered the lizardmen into pieces.
Just then, Yorick led the gnoll troops on the city wall out of the city gate and joined the battle. After the tauren tore open the battlefield, the troops inside the city could enter the battlefield very smoothly. Therefore, Yorick encountered almost no obstacles and joined forces with his comrades below to completely surround the enemy.
But soon a new problem arose. The dinosaur army brought by the lizardmen put tremendous pressure on the minotaurs and jackals. Although the Hydra led the Abyssal Multi-Headed Lizards back to stop these giant beasts, the Tyrannosaurus Rex on this planet was much larger than we understood. Dinosaurs are actually the most terrifying and ferocious species of magical beasts. Under the influence of magic, their size was so huge that even minotaurs who were over four meters tall looked tiny in front of them.
Tiga immediately led his dinosaur cavalry into the battle, and soon the dinosaurs on the battlefield were subdued by another group of dinosaurs. Tiga had his own way of dealing with dinosaur troops. As a dinosaur-man, he was born with an affinity for these top predators. He could even make the dinosaurs instantly defect to his side by simply killing their riders.
