Chapter 256 Dragon of War
Beneath the towering city walls of Titania, the two sides fought fiercely. Jerain held the family sword of Griffin and took Sharanrott straight, but this young red dragon girl was not as weak as she used to be.
She raised her left hand and directly grabbed the holy white sword blade that slashed down. A violent friction and tearing sounded on the armor on the palm of her hand, and then the blade penetrated Shalanrot's palm and arm like a branding iron. Tear its arms apart.
Although the left hand was abolished for a while, it also bought a precious opportunity for Xia Lanrot. The dragon spear in her hand also stabbed at Jalan's chest, and the tip of the spear sank into it.
But there was no blood spilling out. She felt as if she had been stabbed into the stone, and the blade of the gun was stuck. Then Jerain swung the sword again, and she had to give up the spear in her hand, and was caught by the red dragon knight beside her. Protected back.
After turning to the rear of the front line, the priest on the battlefield and the healed Transcendent hurriedly treated Xia Lanrot, while the latter clutched his shoulders and still stared at the front line, the constantly breaking through Jalan.
"No more hesitation, use that weapon." She seemed determined.
"However, Miss, according to previous tests, the 'Elong' still has many deficiencies, which will cause great side effects to users."
"It's nothing, I won't die so easily. I'll leave it to you first, Phineas."
"Yes, Your Highness." Phines, who was guarding on the side, nodded and replied, and then rushed down from the tower with several phoenix riders to stop the white lion knights who were constantly breaking through.
The flaming phoenix swept through the streets and alleys, bringing a suffocating heat wave and engulfing the influx of enemy troops. Although they were not afraid of swords, they were still unable to withstand the high temperature, and they also needed to breathe.
After letting the front line stabilize for the time being, Xia Lanluot traveled all the way, and under her notice, several wizards from the 'Fairy Wood' also rushed over quickly.
"I received the signal just now, sir, have you made up your mind to use that weapon?"
"yes."
"...Well, we will do our best to assist you." After a brief thought struggle, the Mage with technical expertise nodded with difficulty.
Soon, they came to a large courtyard in the city. This was originally the central cathedral of the imperial capital. The hall was extraordinarily empty and spacious, and it was about 10 stories high in the previous life.
There are no priests or believers in the empty church today, only a cold war machine standing quietly. Its shape resembles a giant dragon, but it is not a real dragon, but is made of high-level enchanted fine gold. Stunning golden red.
Its dragon wings are made of crimson gradient metal, sharp and light, with a certain flexibility, the body is heavy and strong dark gold metal, the key parts have shield-like glyph armor, the hind legs are thick and powerful, and the forelimbs are sharp. The claws are stronger and sharper than ordinary dragons.
The power of this giant dragon is provided by the central dragon heart magic furnace. There are multiple anti-gravity devices in the body, which can make it free from the shackles of the earth, and then use the enchantment on the wings to move the airflow to gain the ability to fly at high speed.
If it is driven by suitable personnel, it can obtain the powerful combat power of the Sequence 8 of the Dragon. Its defense and attack power are excellent. The only fly in the ointment is that it consumes too much energy. At present, no suitable method has been found to solve it. .
Even if the superhuman of the Dragon Sequence 7 enters and drives, it is estimated that the magic power will be exhausted in less than 8 minutes, and the body will be weak. And the superhuman of the Dragon Sequence 8, if he enters and drives, he can last for 30-50 minutes, depending on the person and the situation.
"In the case of guaranteeing attack and defense, such a dragon-shaped golem must consume several times the magic power of other types of golems in the past as the price of obtaining high flying maneuverability, and even if it uses magic spar to supplement the consumption, But 80% of it still needs to be paid by the driver." The alchemist who designed and improved this war machine described it so.
The supplementary consumption of magic spar is not a panacea, and there is also an upper limit for such behavior. Converting the magic power in the magic spar into usable power still requires devices and processes, which cannot be completed in an instant. This is also why those powerful magical creations are often huge and bulky, because the energy conversion device cannot be discarded.
After entering this empty church, Charan Lotte looked up at the mighty creature of war standing there, many thoughts flashed through her mind, and finally shook her head, without speaking, jumped up, and then got into the cockpit of the dragon's heart.
The heavy protective armor slid up and closed, and then buckled tightly. Light began to bloom in the dark cockpit, and then three circular lenses appeared in front of Sharanrot. They were in front of and on both sides of the dragon. The perspective is provided by the photo gem embedded in the dragon's body, and then the dark red magic power is poured into the magic furnace of the dragon's heart from Sharanrot, and the dragon begins to wake up.
The mechanical dragon screamed silently, and then the sharp wings began to move, and its body gradually levitated away from the ground.
Soon the giant dragon rushed out of the church and soared into the air as if swimming in the atmosphere.
Before the people inside and outside the city walls could tell what kind of behemoth it was, the four crimson metal wings on the giant dragon began to flap, wrapping in the cold air of Gao Long and swooping down.
The sturdy and powerful body, like a heavy chariot, directly lifted the marble-like Western Allied troops on the battlefield, and then it opened its mouth and breathed, and the red high-temperature flame swept across the battlefield like a beam of light, vaporizing the enemy, made of metal. The armor also melted instantly.
The choking and suffocating heat wave spread from the breath, and the dazzling light in it made countless soldiers have to close their eyes to avoid being blinded.
Seeing this, the fighting gryphon knights in the sky swooped down and put the hand in their hands.
The thunder gun was firmly clenched, and the turbulent magic power was continuously injected until it approached, and it shot out like electric light.
The spiral thunder gun hit the composite adamantine dragon scale armor with a starting point of sparks, and then exploded and bounced away, leaving only a few sparks. The blazing current in it could only swim and flicker on the outside of the armor, and could not penetrate into it. kernel.
The dragon slayer gun of the past is difficult to come in handy after encountering the steel and metal dragons. Thanks to the breath and agitation of the 'Elong', the follow-up troops of the Western Alliance Army were stuck outside the city walls and difficult to enter. At this time, the confidence of the imperial troops defending the city also increased greatly, and they began to fight back against the western soldiers who were gradually left alone in the city.
Even if these enemies have the blessing of imitating Hua Silin, they are not completely invincible. There are still many means or powerful attacks that break through the boundaries, which can kill such people.
Under the city wall, Jerain looked at the swimming and roaring war dragon in the sky. He was about to step forward but was stopped by the knights of his personal guard beside him. They could not let the future Duke Griffin take risks here.
"Even if you have the family's sacred relics, please be sure to put your life safety first. This is the explanation of the Duke." The knights said so, escorting the eldest son of the Griffin to slowly withdraw from the defeated city of Titania.
The tragic battle was fought from dusk to night, and from night to dawn. It was not until the next day that the coalition forces in the western region temporarily retreated. At this time, the city walls of Titenia were also devastated, with cracks and gaps everywhere.
Many soldiers guarding the city fell asleep directly on the city wall, while the ground was covered with dead or alive bodies, and traces of black ashes after burning were everywhere.
After this battle, nearly 80,000 legionnaires stationed in the city were directly killed, and countless wounded. However, as the offensive side, the Western Frontier Allied Forces were not in a good situation, and many of the troops of the small nobles disappeared directly from the establishment and roster.
After such a tragic slaughter, after a short pause to calm down, countless people were afraid and thankful for the future. Many people began to fear, and the lords of the Western Region had to start thinking about other ways to win.
After all, these soldiers under them are not the kind of beings who are not afraid of death. If the intensity of the war continues to expand, I am afraid that these soldiers will gradually collapse in morale and flee.
The empire has ruled this vast land for hundreds of thousands of years. Even if the Duke Griffin has left behind to support the confrontation, it will still cause inner pressure to most ordinary people.
"I can only ask the witch for help again." After everyone's thoughts were fruitless, they began to think of this worry-free method. It has to be said that people are lazy, who would give up the simple and easy-to-use way at hand. Woolen cloth.
However, with the intervention of the witch, can the ideal kingdom be created, or is it just to suppress the problem and start a new reincarnation.
The world is still moving forward, day and night.
