Chapter 272 Dragon Disaster
Chapter 272 Dragon Disaster
After listening to the green dragon's report, Hypnos nodded: "I understand."
After asking other dragons for some information and holding a combat meeting, Hypnos announced that he would attack Linquan City in three days.
And all this was heard by a scout hiding deep underground.
In a room in Linquan City, three little giants were sitting there. The one sitting in the middle was Toren, and the other two were the ascenders that Ash had recently transformed, Andre and Chascos.
And Andre was the scout responsible for stealing intelligence.
After telling the overheard news, Andre looked at Toren: "Toren, what should we do next?"
Although Ash did not rank the ascenders, the ascenders still consciously regarded Toren, the first to become an ascender, as the leader.
"According to His Highness' instructions, we will naturally hold the city." Toren said, "I will guard the east of the city, Andrei will guard the north, and Chaskos will guard the south of the city. Two hundred guards will guard the west of the city, and the remaining one hundred will guard the city to prevent the dragon beasts that escaped from causing trouble."
"The ordinary troops will be evenly distributed and rotated into three shifts. Do you have any objections?"
Andre and Chaskos shook their heads. They had not received any good education even though they had been taking extra classes recently. However, with the little knowledge they had learned, they could not tell any loopholes in Toren's arrangement.
On the contrary, they think it’s pretty good.
"That's it, prepare for war." Toren nodded, "The whole city is under military control, don't let anyone cause trouble."
"Yes." Andre and Chaskos responded in unison.
On that day, the people of Linquan City discovered that there were more Yinglong troops who were originally patrolling on time.
Three days later, the green dragon Rosamund flew to Hypnos and whispered, "Brother, the other side seems to be prepared. Some of their equipment seems to have been specially updated to target us."
Hypnos stared at the city in the distance, and his eyes seemed to meet those of Toruń who was standing on the top of the city.
Toren also seemed to see Hypnos, and then he put his five fingers together like a knife and cut his neck. The provocation was self-evident.
A trace of violence immediately ignited in the middle of Hypnos's vertical pupils: "Attack the city as usual. What does it matter if there are defenses? Under absolute strength, these insects will understand how ridiculous their actions are!"
"Yes." Rosamond seemed to disagree a little, but she didn't dare to refute it in person.
These five-colored dragons are not good-tempered, and evil is their basic nature. Hypnos was able to establish his own position, naturally, by laying the foundation with the lives of his younger brothers and sisters.
Rosamund didn't want to be hated by Hypnos.
"Attack!" Amos, the blue dragon in charge of supervising the battle, blew the horn.
The earth suddenly shook, and countless dragon beasts rushed out from the dense forest and headed straight for Linquan City.
However, the Yinglong army seemed to have anticipated this situation. They fortified their defenses and cleared the fields, cutting down all the nearby trees, leaving a five-kilometer-long open space without any obstructions.
When the dragon beasts were moving among the woods, the Yinglong guards who were in charge of observation on the city wall had already seen them.
Seeing them about to move, the Yinglong Guards shouted directly:
"fire!"
Boom boom boom!
The sound of dense artillery fire suddenly rang out, and the magic cannons made by the dwarves and enchanted by Susanna fired one shell after another covered with blue patterns.
The shells fell, and in the blink of an eye, clusters of huge ice crystals grew up, emitting a chill that was enough to freeze flesh and blood in an instant. The sharp ice spikes were enough to pierce the scales of the dragon beasts, giving them a chill to the heart.
But this wave is not the end. After this round of artillery bombardment, the artillerymen have finished loading the second round of artillery shells.
"fire!"
Boom boom boom!
The shells covered with red patterns fell, and in the blink of an eye, red mushroom clouds rose one after another, vaporizing the dragon beasts near the shells.
This was repeated three times, and the originally densely packed dragon beasts suddenly became visibly sparser.
"Form a formation!" The Yinglong Guards shouted as they watched the dragon beasts approach the city wall. In an instant, the Yinglong Guards connected with the Yinglong Army behind them, and their momentum rose.
"kill!"
The Yinglong guards swung their swords, and the sharp sword energy slashed towards the dragon beast in front.
With a "whoosh" sound, the dragon beast charging in front was torn into two halves.
However, the death of the charging dragon beast did not affect the subsequent dragon beasts from rushing forward one after another.
Soon, the first dragon beast rushed to the top of the city wall and fought with the Yinglong army.
Blood began to pour on the top of the city wall and quickly spread to the entire city from the east.
"Release the dragon." Hypnos said as he watched the battle situation.
A group of two-winged flying dragons suddenly took off from the dense forest and headed straight for Linquan City.
Meanwhile, inside Linquan City, the Yinglong Army placed large heavy crossbows on the reinforced roofs.
Seeing the flying dragons in the sky, the Yinglong guards in charge of defense shouted loudly: "Free shooting, don't let any flying dragon fly back to me!"
Whoosh whoosh!
A specially made magic arrow flew across the sky, piercing one flying dragon after another.
The battle lasted from morning to afternoon, and Hypnos snorted coldly, "Withdraw the troops."
"Yes." Amos flew into the sky and let out a dragon roar that resounded through a thousand miles. After this roar, the dragon beasts that had been fearless just now immediately turned around and ran away.
Some of the more sophisticated ones even dragged away the bodies of their companions.
At night, a small group of dragon-like elves ran out of the dense forest, and they rushed towards Linquan City eagerly.
The patrolling guards spotted them and stood on the city wall, watching the dragon-like elves running towards them.
When the dragon elf saw the Yinglong guards stop, he waved and said, "Save us, save us, we have been captured by those evil dragons."
Even in dragon form, these elves are still very beautiful, and their ragged clothes add to their temptation when they make big moves.
When the ordinary Yinglong soldiers saw this scene, they were also moved and could not help but agree.
However, when the words came to their lips, they were startled and looked at the leading Yinglong Guards.
Whether they agree or not doesn’t count, it only counts if this person nods.
If they agreed, it would be a violation of the rules, and they would be punished with caning at the very least and beheading at the worst.
The Yinglong Guard's gaze lingered on the group of dragon elves, then looked at the dense forest behind them. He narrowed his eyes, then waved his hand: "Kill them all!"
"Ah?" The Yinglong soldiers thought that the Yinglong Guards would agree, but they didn't expect them to be so ruthless and kill them all directly.
However, military orders were as heavy as a mountain and were the seal of their minds. They dared not disobey the orders of the Yinglong Guards, so they picked up their crossbows and started shooting.
The dragon-like elves suddenly wailed, cursed and begged, until the last curse disappeared, leaving behind a pile of corpses.
A big-headed white dragon hiding behind the dense forest couldn't help but smack its mouth. It was quite troublesome.
If the Yinglong Army dares to take over, the city wall will be breached tonight.
I didn't expect them to be so cruel that they wouldn't even fall for the beauty trap. What a pity for this food.
