Evolving Silver Dragon - Chapter 424
Chapter 424: 442 Dawn in the Homeland_1
If they were only facing the monster army from the Dragon Bone Wasteland, the elite soldiers of the Western Empire would never be afraid.
But when they saw that their supposed Nord allies suddenly betrayed them and joined forces with the monster army, even the most elite soldiers could not help but feel turmoil in their hearts.
In the face of this situation, even the commanders on horseback couldn’t lift their soldiers’ morale.
More importantly, these people of the Western Empire had been on a forced march for a long time before arriving here.
Before this, they never imagined that they would encounter an ambush of such magnitude at the border of the Dragon Bone Wasteland.
Even more unexpectedly, the Nords who had been feeding and accommodating them would suddenly turn against them and cooperate with the monsters.
At this moment, the people of the Western Empire were exhausted both physically and mentally, and many once resolute soldiers had despair written all over their faces.
Left with no choice, they could only hold their ground and hope for a miracle.
However, instead of a miracle, what fell from the sky were strange iron balls.
A large number of Chimeras flew from the direction of the Dragon Bone Wasteland to the sky above the Western Empire’s ranks. Instead of using their breath weapons against those below, they dropped iron balls that were the result of some Dragonborn Goblin’s latest research.
Goblin technology, astonishing!
“Boom… Boom…”
Large iron balls fell from the sky, and some unlucky ones were directly crushed into pulp.
But the terror of these iron balls was more than just their crushing force. Some curious Imperial soldiers gathered around them, examining the balls.
Soon, some people noticed that there were sparkling red gems embedded in the iron balls, and the speed of the gems’ flashing was accelerating.
Before long, the red gems stopped flashing.
And then came the horrifying explosions!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The continuous explosions spread throughout the Western Empire’s ranks, throwing their once orderly formation into chaos in an instant.
Watching this unfold helplessly, the commander on horseback knew that they no longer had any hope…
Just as the Western Empire soldiers were crying out in confusion, the Nord throwing axes and Lizardman spears were already flying from front and back towards them.
By the time the Western Empire soldiers raised their shields in a panic, many of their comrades had already fallen, full of holes.
Soon, Nord warriors wielding battle axes and a large number of monster minions appeared before the Western Empire soldiers.
In this situation, it’s difficult for the pitiful Western Empire soldiers to organize any effective resistance.
Without a doubt, this would be a massacre!
Eventually, the Western Empire soldiers who had journeyed to the border of the Dragon Bone Wasteland remained here forever.
The monster legion was responsible for cleaning the battlefield, and apart from the indigestible weapons and equipment, their stomachs could clean up everything else.
As for the weapons and equipment that could not be eaten, they would be handed over to the Nords for handling.
On the edge of the battlefield, Rolf and Gaz were discussing their next plan.
The great Silver Dragon Lord did not like being constantly on the defensive. After the Stania Floating City had presented itself, Otto believed it was time to take the initiative and attack.
First, the nominal allies of the Nords would launch an attack on Felton while the other forces had not yet reacted.
As for Gaz and Saru, they would lead the monster army to provide as much help to the Nords as possible.
With their help, the fortress walls in Felton, which have stood for many years, would not be as indestructible as their history suggests.
Meanwhile, in the Dawn Forest.
Since the news that the Dawn Legion, upon whom great hopes were placed, had been wiped out in the Dragon Bone Wasteland, the Dawn Forest had once again entered a state of complete border lockdown.
Any foreign creatures attempting to enter Dawn Forest, be it humans or Orcs, would face merciless shooting by the Elf Ranger squads.
Faced with this situation, many people living near the Dawn Forest said that the Elf King, whose life was nearing its end, had gone mad!
Today, Goldleaf Serena led her ranger squad on a routine patrol in the Dawn Forest as usual.
Suddenly, she seemed to sense something and frowned. She gestured for her companions to stop.
Then, she pressed her ear to the ground, feeling the distant vibrations.
After a while, Goldleaf straightened up but looked puzzled.
The other elves cautiously approached Goldleaf, who then said coldly, “It seems that the cruel truth has not yet reached those greedy outsiders. The Dawn Forest is no longer the easy haven from which they can thrive!”
Recalling what had happened in the Dawn Forest, the faces of the other elves around Goldleaf became indignant.
They then drew their weapons under Goldleaf’s lead and gracefully leaped between the branches and bushes, arriving at the scene of the disturbance in no time.
Goldleaf took the lead, hiding behind a thick oak tree, her bow drawn and aimed at the people advancing.
“Are there only two people intruding into Dawn Forest this time?”
Feeling the approaching footsteps, Goldleaf furrowed her brow. At some point, the greedy outsiders had become so audacious.
Merely two people dared to enter Dawn Forest, so it seemed that the Elf King’s recent warning had fallen on deaf ears.
“In that case, their blood will serve as a warning to others!”
Goldleaf was never a killer, but she understood a truth: the killing of today served the purpose of peace in the future.
If bloodshed could stop more greedy people from appearing near the Dawn Forest, she would not mind doing so.
However, as the two people approached, Goldleaf looked puzzled.
Were they her fellow elves, coming face to face with her?
Golden soft hair, fair and beautiful faces, and those pointed ears; the two people coming closer looked like the standard appearance of a high elf.
