Under the Red Dragon

The space between heaven and earth seemed to be filled with clouds of various colors, as if the dark sky was painted with colorful patterns.

Layers upon layers of colored storm clouds rose from the plains, covering most of the sky.

The noble legion warriors on the Marino Defense Line felt a sense of 'black clouds pressing down on the city' at this moment.

Even the sunlight rising from the horizon could not penetrate the clouds and the layers of wings that obscured the sky and earth, only being able to see the ferocious shaking tail spines of the Manticore and the head of the Wyvern, which roars fiercely, in the dense monster tide.

Then there were the Dragon and Magic Dragon legions, even more terrifying than ferocious monsters like Wyverns and Manticores.

The brains of these noble legion warriors nearly crashed at the sight of the boundless aerial legion surging around the floating mage tower.

Many newly conscripted noble legion warriors could not even grip the weapons in their hands, and their once-cold leather armor was already soaked with urine.

It was not because these soldiers were too weak-willed, but because this scene had never occurred in the world of Aikanya.

So many dragons and wyverns descending on a battlefield at the same time could only be seen in the distant First and Second Eras and in those battlefields of plane warfare.

Perhaps only on the blood-soaked battlefields in the abyss and hell could this terrifying scene be easily reproduced.

Even the elite veterans in the noble legions did not know where to aim their ballistae and heavy cannons for a time.

The elite archer legions also hesitated at this moment whether they should face the boundless monster legion surging from the sky.

Or should they shoot the deadly arrows in their hands at the hill giants, frost giants, ancient ogres, and earth goblins who were howling and running wildly as if on flat ground even on the sloping ridges?

Once a legion-scale battle begins, what is most important?

It is coordination and discipline, which far outweighs any other factor.

The legions of the Golden Empire can complete the established orders and tactical objectives under the command of each commander, because the division of responsibilities and quality training of the legion have been integrated into their daily lives.

However, the Frost Giant Legion and the Multi-Armed Giant Legion do not have the strict order of long-term training like the legion warriors of the Golden Empire, so these giant legions are divided and charged upwards on two gentle slopes.

Only the legions of the Golden Empire launched an attack on the small barbican under the city of Dorabi in a regular scattered formation.

Once the barbican is breached, the legions of the Empire will break through the gate of Dorabi City at all costs, and then cooperate with the legions in the sky and the legions on the periphery from the internal passages of the city, quickly seize all the high points, take a commanding position, and then control the entire city of Dorabi.

Logically speaking, in such a chaotic situation, it is extremely difficult for the allied forces of the kings to complete relatively close cooperation.

However, the legions on the land cannot effectively connect and cooperate in the war, but the legions in the sky can make corresponding judgments, decisions, and actions based on the movements of the legions on the land.

Because those are the Dragon Kings of the Golden Empire, commanding a terrifying legion.

Behind each Dragon King of the Golden Empire follow several or more dragons of the same scale color as the Dragon King, these dragons do not need much training, they only need to obey the will of the scale color Dragon King.

These dragons guarded the floating mage tower as it advanced towards the front in the high dome, arranged in the most suitable triangular wedge formation for dragon attacks, and did not descend to within the range of Dorabi City and the Marino Defense Line's defensive fire.

The dragons coldly cast their Stern cold pupils.

And Batoli, the leader of the Dragon Knight Regiment of the Golden Empire, commanded the Batwing Wyvern, the fastest wyvern species in the world of Aikanya.

Under Batoli's command, each captain of the Wyvern Knight Regiment commanded at least hundreds of wyverns, and these wyverns were not from the Empire, but the wyvern species tamed and ridden by the cloud giants in the Abandoned Mountain Range.

The Manticores were not commanded, but rarely left the monster legion to land and attack alone.

This massive aerial legion seemed to be densely packed and surging, but it was unexpectedly calm.

Without the order of the Dragon Kings of the Golden Empire, these monster legions were just manic slowly advancing and circling in the air, bringing unparalleled pressure to the noble legion warriors on the city wall defense line.

The flowing wind in the sky brought an extremely strong fishy and rank smell and the scent of dragon blood in the air, putting the noble legion warriors in a state of intense torment.

The threat of the sword of Damocles hanging overhead is most terrifying when it has not yet fallen.

Even the Gryphon Knights and Giant Eagle Guards who took off from the Gryphon Nest camp, as well as the Dragon Beast flying species legions secretly cultivated by the southern nobles, only dared to linger within tens of meters above the defense line and did not dare to launch an active attack.

As large, extraordinary magical beasts that were cultivated to be friendly to humans, these Gryphons and Giant Eagles were naturally not afraid of most dragons' majesty, and dared to show their claws even in the face of adult dragons.

However, the majesty of the Dragon Kings of the Golden Empire, who commanded the dragon legions, made these Gryphons and Giant Eagles feel fear of war for the first time.

It was not until the roars and reminders of the noble senior commanders and generals sounded, until the command point of each city defense segment blew the shrill horns of war,

Until the spellcasting legions of the nobles raised one after another magical aura, sweeping like a tide through the defense line arrays they were responsible for, did they awaken the warriors who had briefly lost their courage.

"Courage and tenacity!"

"Mind spring!"

"High morale!"

Spells that blessed courage and fighting spirit and added buff effects lit up on the wands of the noble spellcasting legions.

At the control points of each defense segment, pillars of light engraved with complex runes lit up in the platforms built of solid granite, and surging magic elements were drawn from the magic springs and nodes in the Dorabi Mountains.

Relying on the control of the magic nodes, these spellcaster legions possessed far greater magic recovery ability and magical power than other mages of the same level on the control platforms of the magic nodes.

This also allowed the spellcasting legions of the nobles to wantonly bless their warriors with the necessary spells at the beginning of the war.

And these lookout fortresses and platforms built around the magic nodes also showed the exquisite magical knowledge mastered by those southern nobles.

The entire city of Dorabi, unlike the royal capital of the Golden Empire, was not defended by a magical defense barrier, but chose to set up separate defense energy barriers at the magic nodes in each lookout fortress.

The advantage of this is that when a single lookout fortress is breached, the transmission of the entire magic link cannot be destroyed unless the enemy destroys the entire Marino Defense Line.

And although there was no defense in the city of Dorabi, the entire city was under the control of the high points of the surrounding city walls, and even if an adult dragon dared to land in the air, it would be shattered by the instantaneous defense system.

And in the shouting of the senior commanders stationed at the lookout node of the noble legions, the legion warriors of the entire defense line began to operate.

Because the giants, ogres, earth goblins, and monsters had rushed into the range of the city defense line, and the speed of the impact was getting faster and faster.

"Prepare the rolling logs and stones, release!"

The commanders' mad shouts came from each node.

One by one, the noble legion warriors, roaring in the face of death, raised sections of huge logs several meters thick that were placed in the city wall defense line, and pushed them out of the low concave city section of the pass.

There were also new soldiers responsible for using seesaw machinery to throw down huge round boulders with rough edges and corners along the tall city walls.

Rumbling,

Sections of huge rolling logs and stones rolled down from the high slope, the huge volume and heavy weight itself were not very lethal attacks, any giant on the plain could easily pick up these giant trees and boulders that required several humans to hug.

But with the blessing of potential energy, these ordinary things exerted unprecedented power at this moment, directly smashing the ogres and trolls that could not dodge into a flat piece, directly pressing over these monsters or jumping up.

Even the hill giants were hit by these logs and boulders and had to be smashed down the hillside by the huge potential energy, rolling directly down, and it was difficult to tell whether they were alive or dead for a while.

"Idiot, idiot, you idiots, your brains are filled with stray dogs shit,"

The clever giant overseer selected by the low-level officers of the Golden Empire lowered his body, dodged the huge stones that kept jumping on the hillside, then stood up and chopped off the rolling wood that had become tattered due to friction with an axe and roared loudly.

"Those guys who can use those weak dog shit spells, move your weak power, and those who want to resist hard, can their heads and flesh be harder than stones?"

"Disperse, disperse, don't charge in groups! Watch the landing point of those stones in advance, pay attention to dodging, and follow me!"

Countless giants roared and launched a charge again.

"Archers ready, prepare to shoot upwards!"

The noble legion commander on the city defense watched coldly, waved his hand, and arrows rained down, many arrows nailed to the wooden shields in the hands of those giants and monsters, and some arrows directly inserted into the fragile necks of those monsters at tricky angles.

buzzing, buzzing, buzzing

One by one, the magic heavy cannons began to cock up their heavy butt on the embrasure of their own line, aiming at the most densely packed giant and monster areas, and began to bloom the powerful power of war heavy weapon.

Looking at the city defense line that was still indifferent and still aiming most of the alchemy weapons, armor-piercing giant crossbows, and dwarves' 'Moradin's Fury' and various magic heavy cannons, and those mage legions waiting in battle, the imperial dragon kings moved.

White Dragon King Gemot showed a completely indifferent expression on his ferocious face, he issued his order, and then a deep voice echoed in the sky.

"Prepare to let the golem legions land, let the golem legions attract fire power for us!"

So dozens of huge magic dragons, ridden by dragon knights on their backs, began to descend from the high sky, and when they were about to approach the range limit of those anti-aircraft weapons and mage legion spells, these huge magic dragons were gently reined by their knights.

So these huge magic dragons let out a deep roar, began to advance forward, and then released the rock golems, steel armor golems, and various clay golems on their huge claws at the scheduled location.

And the noble Gryphon Knight Legion, the Giant Eagle Guard, and the Dragon Beast Knights quickly rose into the air in roar, wanting to destroy the tactical purpose of these magic dragons.

But Batoli, the leader of the Wyvern Knight Regiment, issued his order, and the long- manic wyvern and manticore legions began to pounce down, and quickly entangled with the airborne noble air combat legions.

So the golems began to fall down.

Although these golems can play a huge role in siege warfare and protect against many attacks, they are just pure sitting ducks on the hillside, and they cannot seize the quota for airborne teleportation with the elite legions, so they can only rely on the imperial dragon species for airborne delivery.

Some golems fell on the hillside outside the city defense, and some golems fell directly on the city defense line.

The magical shields in the world are different, there are spell barriers, energy shields, and earthly barriers, although these shield spells are all aimed at protecting the caster.

But the focus of each shield spell is different.

Some spell shields focus more on physical defense, and some spell barriers focus more on the protection of magic and energy, which depends on the different choices made by the caster for different targets.

But in such a large-scale legion-level battle, almost all constructed spell protections focus on elemental magic energy protection.

Because in legion-level battles, the spell strikes of the casters are the most deadly.

But even with targeted protection barriers that focus on energy and magic, these heavy golems that fell from the air could not shake those seemingly thin layers of spell protection.

Only the two huge city-breaking level golems fall down did the magical barrier supported by the magic node energy output shake out a little bit of ripples.

Under the pressure brought by these huge golems, the mage legions finally take action again, using various magics to trap these golems that were ravaging on the defense line, or directly using magic to detect and strike the core of these golems and the heroic spirits that were manipulating the golems.

Boom,

The city-breaking level golem ravaging on the city defense, directly trampled to death several noble legion warriors.

But the energy shield on the surface of this city-breaking level golem swaying layer by layer, completely ignoring the enemies attacking him and the spells that fell around him, but aimed his muzzle at the shield.

The war mastermind opened all the power of this golem, allowing the attack power of this city-breaking level golem to exceed the overload range, shot out a bright light, and then in a short wear down, broke a node's spell barrier defense.

"It's our turn to take action," the female red dragon Klenaya let out a deep roar, and the dragons understood the meaning of the Red Scale King and let out ancient dragon language.

The attack of the golem legion tested the strength of these spell barriers, allowing all the dragons to understand what kind of power could defeat the spell barriers.

Just like the knowledge in the dragon's inheritance, battle is to calmly find the enemy's weakness and then defeat the enemy.

Thus, the Golden Empire's dragon legions, led by the Dragon Kings, began to soar toward their designated targets. Each Dragon King was tasked with destroying critical high points along the city's defensive lines.

Behind these dragon legions, over a dozen floating mage towers, coordinated by the intelligent mainframe, rapidly assigned themselves to the targets they needed to eliminate. Under the cover of the dragon legions, they slowly descended toward their designated points.

As beams of teleported airdrops illuminated the watchtowers on the walls of Dorabi, the fury of the dragons and the destruction of the legionnaires descended simultaneously!
