Chapter 291: Broken Halberd
“Sure enough…Sure enough!”
Leia had already rushed out of the control center at this moment.
He stood in the mining town of Nield, ignoring the group of remnant flying soldiers being chased by Lian, and looked up and stared at the western sky.
This skinny moon elf was very emotional, and his mouth, which used to be full of venom, was now muttering at a very fast speed.
No one could hear what he was saying. Even if someone pricked up their ears, they would probably only hear meaningless syllables.
What came out of Leia's mouth was an extremely unfamiliar language.
"Nollyhus... gurgle gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
And right above his head, the group of half-dragons who were completely ignored by Leia were fleeing frantically towards the ground.
Behind them was the giant drone being controlled by Lian, who appeared to be extremely calm but was actually mad.
Vera and the others' [Flying Eyes] hid in the belly of the [Fortress] drone. The scene in front of them was a little uncomfortable even for pilots who were used to flying.
Some of them even started to dry heave as their faces turned pale.
The short half-elf glanced at the pilots following him, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
"Ms. Li, Miss Lian——"
Vera's face was pale, and the word "airsickness" was almost engraved on her forehead.
"You, you don't have to worry about us. Please follow the plan and defeat the last flying species..."
Retracting her gaze, Lian once again focused her attention completely on the [Fortress].
Although she was filled with rage, her dual training as a warrior and a druid prevented her from losing her mind as easily as before.
The group of half-dragons had already discovered that their speed could not match that of the huge metal ball that was maintaining constant levitation.
They flapped their wings and rushed towards the only living creature on the ground at a speed far exceeding that of free fall.
"Oh no—old licker!"
Lian noticed what the half-dragons were thinking and quickly reminded them loudly.
But the control center is an underground facility after all, and the half-elf's voice cannot penetrate the soil and be heard by the elven wizards on the ground.
Just as Lian was readjusting her direction and preparing to make an arc to intercept the group of half-dragons, the thin figure standing on the ground raised his finger and pointed at the group of lizard heads falling from the sky.
There was no spell, not even any obvious magical fluctuations, but a feeling that made Lian shudder suddenly appeared.
Then, all the half-dragons in the sky above the town of Nield, including the [Fortress] drone, seemed to have pressed the pause button and were fixed in place.
Including the expression on the half-dragon's face, everything seemed frozen, with saliva hanging at the corners of his mouth.
Even the movement of air seemed to have disappeared.
The flight team members in the control center were not fixed. They were admiring the wonders before them in amazement through the perspective of the drone.
Only Lian, because of a special experience in the past, opened her mouth slightly and whispered the name of the spell.
"【Time Pause】... Old licker, are you... a legendary?"
Immediately afterwards, Leia in Lian's perspective began to twitch her hands rapidly.
Countless magical energies were created. Once they approached the effective range of the [Time Stop] spell, they all maintained a forward-rushing posture and remained motionless in place.
As if she felt that she had cast enough spells, Leia stopped what she was doing and stared at the west.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the half-dragon's body was activated again.
Their eyes were still filled with the previous brutality and desperation, but soon, they turned into horror.
Several powerful spells exploded in the half-dragon formation, and red and green spell energy flowed everywhere.
The protective shields on the heads of these lizards did not provide much defensive effect at all.
Under the attack of several legendary spells, the remaining forces of the half-dragon flying troops were completely destroyed.
……
"Grand Patriarch! Grand Team Leader!"
Broken Tooth held the battle axe and nervously protected Tagon.
"The sky, the sky—what kind of monster is that?"
No matter how poor the orcs' eyesight was, they could still see clearly in the sky the cat that was a little larger than the giant half-dragon - a white cat with small wings.
"Don't be nervous, Broken Tooth... Look carefully..."
Old Tagon stroked his beard with great interest, with a slightly drawn smile on his face.
"I don't have soul vision... I use my heart... How can I use it..."
Broken Tooth complained in a low voice, and although his voice was very low, Tagon could still hear it clearly.
"Broken Tooth, that's our old friend, the amazing Ivan."
"Oh, yes!
Ivan is a druid, so it's normal for him to turn into some strange things.
Hmm - much better looking than Paul's silly bear look."
After getting the answer that reassured him, Broken Tooth stared at the big white cat in the sky for a while, then continued to point the axe at the half-dragon in front of him.
When it comes to dealing with enemies in the sky, orcs prefer to face these giant lizards that are useless in other aspects except that they are bigger than themselves and can suddenly emit radiation.
"waaaaah!"
The roar from the wasteland once again resounded throughout the entire defense line.
From the beginning of the war to now, the time that has passed is barely one natural hour.
Although human soldiers were defending the front line, they lacked effective weapons and protective gear, and suffered heavy casualties;
However, there are only less than a hundred half-dragons left after being surrounded and attacked from all sides.
Surprisingly, most of the half-dragons did not die from the orcs' crude adamantium weapons, but fell in the spell storm of the spellcaster troops led by Liz.
Excessive damage, this sister played it to the fullest.
Seeing that there were only a few of his companions left, the half-dragon commander on the ground had a fierce look in his eyes.
His pupils turned scarlet as he looked around at the enemies. Suddenly, he stopped where he was and thrust the long stick in his hand heavily into the ground.
Then, a roar almost like a dragon's roar came out of his mouth.
“Ah—hiss…”
Although the ending sounded a bit strange, the sound still made the other half-dragons stop and flap their wings to retreat back to the commander.
"Escape?"
The noble knight, who was trying to open a gap for the troops behind him, was unable to react for a moment when he saw the enemy, with whom he had been fighting for half a day, fleeing into the distance.
"Forward! Forward! Protect the knight formation!"
Percy saw the miserable state of the knights and gave orders decisively.
Afterwards, dozens of soldiers who still had strength left rushed forward with halberds and heavy shields, forming a somewhat thin line of defense in front of the knight troops and priest defense circle.
"Sir Knight... why are you left with——"
"Stop, stop, stop!"
The noble knight interrupted Percy's question with a gesture.
"Although I am grateful that you rushed over to protect these wounded people, but if you just rush over like this, aren't you afraid that those half-dragons will self-destruct or something?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a roar-like common language was heard from the half-dragon formation on the opposite side.
"Be buried with our warriors! Primitives from another world!"
With that, a thick black substance rose up from the half-dragon's body.
Curly-haired Percy looked at the noble knight who was grinning from ear to ear. His miserable appearance made him look extremely serious.
Then, Percy made a joke that didn't sound joking at all.
"Sir Knight, what you said... is so true!"
