An Ordinary Fantasy Adventure in the Continent of Faerun

Chapter 538 Battle of Isolated Island (1)

During the time when Noshir and Orpheus were communicating, the tower itself was also trying to resist the powerful enemies from the astral world.

As Noshir had expected before, the Githyanki did have the ability to track and even locate the specific location of the astral prism. It was precisely relying on this ability that these Githyanki red dragon riders who had come from an unknown distance could accurately find this place in such a short time. However, Baldur's Gate had already mobilized a considerable force to rush to the nearby area in the shortest time under Noshir's reminder.

Bodran Sea Tower is a prison island. This area originally had 300 elite Flame Fist veterans stationed there. Under the order of Duke Ravengard, he specially dispatched a 100-man strong crossbowman brigade stationed nearby, more than 30 paladins and priests of the god of courage Torm who volunteered to come to support, and a team of 50 military mages with an average level of three to four rings.

Such support is indeed strong, but it is not the end. In addition to these basic teams and manpower support, the Grand Duke has also informed the Lumen Hammer Paladin Skar, the beloved Ranger Minsk and Xiaobu, Baldur's Gate's top magic advisor Ms. Florrick, and Hell's Fury Karak who came here early in the morning of the news of the Githyanki's imminent attack.

The professional level of the above four people is at least over level 16, which is the strongest lineup that Baldur's Gate can show at present. They are masters among masters. After receiving the notice, they did not hesitate at all. Not long after Noshir entered the Astral Prism, they came here in batches and just caught up with this event at this moment.

"Circle of Power!"

A strong sacred energy suddenly erupted in the open space around the Bodran Sea Tower, and at the same time, these twisted and scattered energies quickly formed a spherical force field with a radius of 30 feet, blocking the dragon breath of a young red dragon that was whistling past, and protecting the lives of more than a dozen Flame Fist archers around him.

The person who held up this protective magic circle was Scar, and the moment he used this trick to block the flames of the young red dragon, the archers around Scar who came to their senses and saved their lives immediately turned around and raised their specially made heavy crossbows in their hands towards the red dragon that had not yet flown far away, shooting out more than a dozen swift and sharp crossbow arrows, and very accurately hit five or six of them on the red dragon's thighs and tail.

But these things were made of ordinary iron after all. Even if they were carrying heavy crossbows and specially made heavy arrows, it was almost impossible for such non-magical weapons to penetrate the scales of a dragon. This sparse rain of arrows finally made the dragon roar in dissatisfaction. Without even turning back, it spit out another breath of dragon's breath at the middle of the towering Bodran Sea Tower.

The strong heat and the impressive impact of the dragon's breath made the tower itself shake again, but just as the dragon wanted to attach itself to the tower and directly destroy the six giant crossbows set up above the tower, as well as the soldiers who were attached to the outer wall of the sea tower and kept shooting crossbows from the shooting port, a one-horned tiefling barbarian with blazing flames wrapped around his body and holding a giant hammer suddenly jumped down from the top of the tower!

Karak held the giant warhammer with both hands, and with the powerful output provided by the hell heart in his body, he used the technique of brutal heavy blows and smashed the head of the young red dragon with this fierce hammer!

The powerful force, fierce attack, and the bad position it was in now made the young red dragon, who seemed to have little combat experience, lose its claws directly, and was smashed down from the middle of the tower by a hammer, falling on the hard rock floor around the sea tower!

But just as it was about to land on its back and crush the Githyanki knight riding on its back into a meat pie, it actually tried to tilt to the left in the air, and the red dragon knight on its back seemed to have known the dragon's idea long ago. As it tilted to the left, the knight also loosened his saddle, pulled out the silver sword on his back, and ran to the right side of the red dragon's body.

Finally, at the moment when the left side of the red dragon fell to the ground, the knight also found a suitable place to stand at the same time, picked up his astral silver sword, and quickly flashed towards Karak who also fell to the dragon head position, and chopped with the sword.

Karak, who had already entered a violent state, was not afraid at all. The two masters directly launched a life-and-death bloody battle on the body of the red dragon, but the battle did not last for a few seconds, and the young red dragon under their feet stood up again with his head shaking.

Obviously, the fall just now did not cause much damage to the thick-skinned giant beast, and even the reason why it shook its head was due to the hammer that Karak had given it before. When the dragon stood up, Karak and the Gisyanki knight also lost their fighting position at the same time.

After the knight landed, he made a few light jumps in an instant, and jumped back onto the red dragon's saddle along the bone spurs on the red dragon's claw arms, then suddenly pulled the extra-long reins connected to the dragon's jaw. The red dragon itself came to its senses at this time because of the pull, turned its head, and spit out a large-scale and extremely lethal hot dragon breath directly at Karak below.

But Karak was a tiefling, and she had a hell engine burning in her body. When it was fully running, it would even cover her whole body with flames. Even the hellfire could not do anything to her. She was a powerful barbarian. She could not take the breath of a young dragon seriously.

Karak ignored the red dragon whose brain seemed to be knocked unconscious by the hammer just now. Then, relying on her rich experience of fighting in Avernus for eight years without dying, dealing with countless demon creatures of all sizes with various strange abilities, and defeating them one by one, she determined the best attack route, and then rushed towards the red dragon against the dragon's breath fire flow. Then, before the enemy could react, she quickly passed through the flames, raised the giant hammer, and directly broke the red dragon's right middle claw with the greatest force! At that moment, he couldn't help but let out a painful whine!

But the pain caused by Karak's hammer seemed to stimulate the dragon. At the moment the dragon roared, Karak wanted to raise the hammer and make persistent efforts to destroy its right claw in the shortest time. But just at the moment she raised the hammer, the behemoth in front of her instantly retracted its right claw, and then took less than 0.5 seconds to press down hard towards Karak's current position!
