Chapter 623 Falling Dragon

On the 43rd of the month of recovery, it was sunny, breezy, with good visibility.

Griffin Knight Jinna rode her partner who had been with her for eight years, covering the elf giant eagle across the clear sky.

The scene of the ground below was clearly presented in Jin Na's sight. She saw that the ground scorched by the flames and the calibrated beam was scorched black. The scorched earth was covered with terrifying craters, and a few wisps of smoke were still rising from the craters. And on the land of the far north, a staggering giant figure can be seen faintly.

This is the trace of war, a war like never before, where machines and monsters tore apart the land, and this tear will continue.

The form of war has changed - the female knight who once served Viscount Leslie understands this. From a messenger for the nobles to an aerial scout of the Cecil Corps, she rode a griffin all the way from the south to the north. She overlooked the war, the battlefield after the war machine was ravaged, and sighed with emotion. The changes in his own life, he lamented the changes in the form of war.

The knights charging on horseback have been replaced by chariots with cannon fire, and the soldiers who are chaotically charging in simple armor have also become magical combatants comparable to the extraordinary. Many new things have replaced the old ones, and the griffin knight will again When was it replaced?

A cloud of mist floated from nearby, and the giant elf eagle on the side adjusted its flight direction slightly. Jin Na also immediately adjusted the auxiliary reins of the griffin to keep up with the figures of the elf allies.

The Griffin Knights are one of the few "old-time troops" in the Cecil Legion. Due to their unique flying ability, there is no new unit to replace them for the time being. These knights soaring in the sky are still the best messengers and Scout, many of his comrades are also quite proud of this, but Jin Na always has a hunch that sooner or later that incredible duke will come up with something that can replace the griffin, and he who only knows how to control the griffin will be able to do it again. What kind of embarrassing situation is there?

I usually read more books... It's easy to find a new job.

A few distracted thoughts flashed in her mind, and the female knight quickly raised her hand and patted her cheek, forcing herself to focus on the task.

This place has not yet penetrated into the hostile area, but we still cannot let our guard down. Although the griffins fly in the sky, those extraordinarily powerful cluster giants have the ability to use lightning to attack the air-there are already two poor griffin knights in the field. Died on a reconnaissance mission, Jinna doesn't want to be the third.

The female knight adjusted her posture on the saddle, and glanced at the hangers on both sides of the specially-made large saddle, which was equipped with new equipment for the Griffin Knight: a machine capable of launching extended-range arcane spells. The missile's magic terminal, for self-defense, and a clasp attached to a wire rope - pull the clasp,

The two ten kilogram recrystallized bombs hanging on both sides of the shoulder and neck of the griffin will be dropped on the ground for attack.

In the eyes of the griffin knights, this is a very satisfying and even surprising good thing, but the duke does not seem to be satisfied with it. Jinna once heard the duke talk about the load-carrying capacity of the griffin in a very accidental situation. It’s still not enough, what kind of aerial bomb is ten kilograms that I don’t understand…

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Jin Na's ear: "The red line is about to be crossed, so be vigilant."

Jin Na raised her head and saw that the elf giant eagle as the leader had begun to climb, and the high-level messenger riding on the back of the giant eagle opened his hands slightly - a light blue magic halo with the giant eagle as the The center spread out to all directions, and the three griffins guarding around the giant eagle were immediately protected by the power of the wind element, and they easily kept up with the height and speed of the giant eagle.

The giant eagle knights of the elves have better ground observation ability and flying ability, and are more qualified scouts than the griffin knights, but they have poor load-carrying ability, so that after taking a slender elf, they can almost I can't carry more weight, and naturally I can't carry any self-defense weapons and protective gear. At the same time, these elf allies are extremely valuable. It can be said that a few giant eagle knights can't afford to lose one. Therefore, in the recent reconnaissance mission, The commander began to arrange for heavily armed griffin knights to serve as the escorts of the giant eagles - Cecil-style griffin knights with thin steel plates hanging from the chest and abdomen, shield generators on their bodies, and ground-to-air Weapons, pure combat power is far stronger than the giant eagle.

The howling wind swept across the shield, leaving only the breeze blowing on the faces of the knights, the entire reconnaissance team quickly pulled up the height, and soon reached the bottom of the clouds. At this height, neither the eyes of humans nor griffins can capture the details on the ground - even with the eagle eye technique, so the specific observation task depends on the elf messenger and her... eagle Completed in the shape of a pigeon.

Sonia Frostleaf's eyes, with a bluish gleam floating in her eyes, cast a vision-enhancing spell on her "Cuckoo", and then shared the vision from a giant eagle - a vision that requires long training and The ability to cooperate, because wild birds will immediately fall into confusion after suddenly obtaining enhanced vision, and cannot accurately judge their true height. Among the giant eagles raised by the elves, nearly two-thirds of the eagles will be unable to adapt to this. Eliminated by one spell, unable to become a scouting partner.

The poorly talented "Gu Gu" would have been eliminated long ago if he had not been trained under the master of Heart of Thorns, who is best at training giant eagles.

If only Master Heart of Thorns hadn't kept so many pigeons in Moon Valley...

Sonia sighed for no reason in her heart, and then the corner of her eye suddenly swept to an abnormality on the ground below.

"Attention, the front right surface - the sunny side of the hill, there is a situation."

There seems to be a battle going on there.

Hundreds of cluster giants are gathering around the small hill, besieging a huge figure that fell on the hillside. Arcane arcs are shining in the air all the time, and the besieged is a large figure. Winged, bulky, covered with black scales...

It looks like a dragon.

Sonia judged the threat within the visible range, and then issued an order using wind grammar: "Squad pay attention, prepare to lower the height of observation and be more vigilant."

Several griffin knights responded immediately, and Jin Na also put a leaf-shaped metal piece close to her lips: "Received, on alert."

This leaf-shaped metal piece is not a new type of communication device made by Cecil - the communication equipment of the Griffin Knight is fixed on the saddle. Although it is already the most advanced small magic net terminal, it also weighs two kilograms. The "leaf" in her hand is given by the elves, which allows the holder to use the "wind language" near the "courier". Although there are many restrictions, it is quite useful in such a mixed team with elves as the core. convenient.

After the height was lowered, more details entered Sonia's eyes - she saw clearly that the besieged should indeed be a dragon, at least very similar in appearance, but the dragon was thinner than the dragon she knew, and its wings were also thinner. It looks a little twisted and weird.

The situation of the dragon is obviously not good. Although his strength is stronger than that of the crystal cluster giant, he is already outnumbered at this time. He uses his fangs and claws to fight against the constantly surging enemies, and occasionally he can emit a breath of flame, but always The crystalline giant attacked from the dead end, adding a new wound to the dragon that fell to the ground.

"Is that a dragon?" the escorted griffon knight exclaimed, "I've only heard of it from stories!!"

"Why does this legendary creature also appear on this battlefield?"

"Ms. Frostleaf, what should we do? Do you want rescue?"

Sonia Frostleaf thought quickly—on the battlefield, you can't simply think that "the enemy of your enemy is your friend", but a black dragon surrounded by giant cluster giants still makes people worry too much, why is this dragon besieged? Why is it here? What does he or she know and see? All these questions made the high-level messenger realize that he couldn't just sit back and watch the black dragon die here.

In any case, compared with the cluster giants who are clearly enemies, the dragons in the elves' records are at least neutral to the continent.

But a scout party alone won't be enough to deal with so many cluster giants.

"Report to the headquarters first. Miss Jin Na, you all try to attract the attention of those giants and reduce the pressure on the black dragon. I will guide the dragon to break through——"

While speaking, Sonia had directly used the messenger's powerful communication spell to contact the command far behind - she briefly explained the incredible incident she had encountered, called the rear support and agreed on a general direction to break through, and then Following behind the escorting Gryphon knights, he lowered the altitude again.

...

Maggie could feel the wounds, the heat, the pain, and it was getting more and more unbearable—and so was the dragon.

She knows that her physical strength is rapidly losing, but she has lost hope of breaking through.

Perhaps the moment he was struck by arcane lightning and fell, his fate was already doomed.

The deformed and weak wings are destined to not be able to fly too high - but Maggie still can't figure out, how can those crystal cluster monsters transformed from civilians and mediocre nobles have such strong air defense awareness and anti-air capabilities ? !

How are their quasi-heads trained!

But no amount of chagrin would help, and as the situation worsened, Maggie knew her time was running out.

In the end, she failed Victoria.

An ugly cluster giant launched a sneak attack from the left, an extraordinarily powerful fighter, it swooped like a gust of wind, Maggie blocked the blow with a powerful tail sweep, and then a burst of flames sent the enemy. Burned to ashes, but a sharp pain came from the right side of her body - a vile spellcaster fired an arcane arc into the gap in her defense.

"You deformed monsters!" Maggie roared, shouting out the words she usually didn't want to hear, "Deformed! Deformed! Deformed!"

However, the clusters didn't care about this at all, and they came up again.

Maggie shrank her defense and was ready to meet death generously with a thunderous counterattack. However, at this moment, she suddenly heard a voice ringing in her ear: "Hold on! Let's help you!"

This seems to be the wind language of the elves?

Maggie was stunned for a moment, and then she heard two consecutive deafening explosions coming from a distance-Boom! Boom!

The explosion landed far away, and almost did not affect the cluster giants at all, but those mutant monsters were instantly diverted their attention, and looked at the direction of the explosion and the nearby sky-I wonder if it was an illusion , Maggie even felt that the reaction of those monsters was almost "shocked".

Then, she saw the dark shadows approaching rapidly from the sky.

An elven giant eagle, and three human griffins.

What strange combination is this?

Feng Yushu came again: "Can the dragon on the ground still fly?"

At this point, many cluster giants have been distracted, and Maggie responded with dragon language magic while dealing with the remaining enemies: "Can't take off."

"Understood, I will point you in the direction, follow me to break through - we are the Cecil Corps vanguard reconnaissance team."

In an instant, Maggie fell into a huge consternation: Cecil? Cecil's army? !

Why is the Cecil army in this place? When did they get to this place? This is already a completely occupied and polluted area. How did those Cecils get in? !

However, she was astonished in her heart, and Maggie's physical response did not fall at all. She responded to the help of the strange elves almost immediately, and began to try to break through in the direction indicated by the other party, and said anxiously: "The city of boulders needs support! Duke Jing and the last mountain legion are still resisting! But they won't last long!"

It was a huge accident to meet the Cecilian army here, but this accident made Maggie realize one thing: if the main force of these southerners has come here, if they can fight all the way here, then maybe Boulder City is still alive!

The strange elf responded quickly, which reassured Maggie a little: "I will report it immediately - but you'd better survive and explain the situation to Duke Cecil in person."

"I will survive."

More attacks fell from the sky - including bright arcane missiles, and something that would send out a huge explosion.

A large number of cluster giants were attracted by the attack from the sky, and Maggie's pressure was suddenly relieved. At the same time, she also saw that the cluster giants launched a counterattack against the griffins in the sky-they quickly Spread out, while strafing the sky with dense and intersecting arcs of arcane, constantly trying to block the flight path of the griffin knights, while those griffin knights shuttled between the arcs with astonishing skill, launching a round Another round of attacks—

This sort of thing seems to be the norm.

Maggie rushed towards the southern part of the battlefield under the guidance of the strange elves, and a question spontaneously popped into her mind:

How much has changed in this battlefield during the more than 30 days when Boulder City was besieged?
