"Kill!" Ravian thrust the lance in his hand and a chariot was knocked to the ground. The sharp lance directly picked up three enemies on the chariot.
"Roar!" Ravian roared and exerted force with his muscular right arm, and suddenly three enemies who were struggling to death were lifted up by him.
Ravian's roar seemed to signal a counterattack for the remaining twenty-two Cross Bauhinia Knights! The knights hidden in the phalanx raised their lances and charged.
The entire scene was brutal yet incredibly realistic! In reality, even the most devoted general wouldn't place his precious knights on the front lines as cannon fodder for defense. Knights were a purely offensive unit! Their destiny was to charge on horseback! Hiding knights among the infantry, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, was Lavian's frustrating yet incredibly effective method.
"We have too few knights..." This was Lavian's helpless sigh to Grand Duke Nyx afterwards. Ultimately, the Grand Duke chose to remain silent. After all, in that situation, ensuring the most effective combat capability was the choice any normal person would make... No one could expect a Knight Commander leading twenty-two knights in a charge against a thousand enemies to do better! (Horlin's arm injury forced him to stay by the Grand Duke's side to protect her.)
"Fight back!" The surviving Crusader officers roared madly. They swung their weapons and slashed at the enemy until the enemy fell to the ground or they were killed.
At this moment, the Crusaders of the Principality of Nix erupted with unparalleled combat power under the suppression of the Dongyi charioteers. One by one, the light infantrymen fearlessly launched a counterattack against the chariots that had lost speed and were stuck in the pile of corpses. The members of the Cross Bauhinia Knights were the sharpest spearhead of this counterattack force!
"Roar!" Suddenly, two thick streams of acid descended from the sky, spraying down upon the Crusaders below. Instantly covered in acid, the Crusaders fell to the ground howling in agony. The areas touched by the acid were corroded so deeply that the bones were visible. In the end, even the bones were corroded and broken...
"Two-headed dragon sky knight!" The offensive of the Crusaders below suddenly stagnated. An sky knight riding a dragon could change the outcome of a battle of this scale. The morale of the Crusaders, who had been in high spirits, suddenly began to decline. The pace of the charge became hesitant, and they frantically avoided the flight path of the two-headed dragon.
"Damn! I forgot about this thing!" Ravian's face suddenly changed, and a feeling of powerlessness suddenly surged in his heart.
"Oh no! It's the enemy's two-headed dragon sky knight! Your Highness, we need to restrain him! Otherwise, our army will collapse!" The injured Huo Lin looked solemnly at the two-headed dragon flying freely in the sky.
"Roar!" Suddenly, the two-headed dragon roared to the sky and pounced towards where Grand Duke Nyx was.
"Your Highness! Leave this place! Protect Your Highness and leave!" Huo Lin drew out the sword with his intact right arm, and a hint of frost crept up his face. It was his fault that he had neglected his duty and allowed the guards to gather around His Highness the Grand Duke. The enemies driving chariots in the distance could not see this situation, but the air knights in the sky could see it extremely clearly, which directly led to the exposure of the Grand Duke's position!
Perhaps the culture and civilization of the Dongyi people are not high, but the principle of capturing the leader first is applicable everywhere. The two-headed dragon sky knight immediately realized that the figure surrounded by guards on the battlefield should be of great importance.
"Asshole! How dare he!" Nyx's eyebrows shot up, a hint of anger crossing her delicate face. How could she, a Grand Duke, be so embarrassed? A mere Sky Knight dared to hunt her down. This infuriated Nyx to the core.
Gusu
In reality, she would never know that in the game's history, she was not only hunted down, but in the end, she was pierced from the bottom up by a barbarian's spear and made into a specimen and erected at the place where the Crusaders were annihilated...
"Asshole!" Nyx finally clenched her fists and made up her mind. She was a mere second-level magician and of course she was powerless to stop this two-headed dragon which was at least a high-level magical beast. But don't forget that as the Grand Duke of a country, she carried the foundation of a principality - even if it was just the weakest principality!
"Listen to the singing of the wind! The sky plays the music of death! O weeping wind! Follow death!" Nyx sang and tore an ancient green scroll in his hand.
Fifth-tier wind-based single-target magic—Deathrattle Wind Song! Activate!
Visible streams of cyan air swept out, swirling and entwining... At a seemingly slow, yet in reality swift, speed, they spread toward the two-headed dragon. Along the way, the whistling wind sounded like a melodious musical composition, and the whistling sound unexpectedly gave everyone a sense of peace of mind. But... it was just an illusion! The two-headed dragon clearly sensed the terrifying power contained in the cyan airflow, and before its knight could even give the order, it automatically turned and fled, its escape speed even faster than the pursuit.
Will all this work? Nyx coldly stared at the fleeing figure. When a fifth-tier spell locks onto you, conventional speed has lost its effectiveness. You can either evade the attack by leaping through space or resist it with various methods. Running is impossible, unless you're dealing with a speed-focused monster that might escape the magic's tracking range. After all, single-target spells are all locked onto you.
As expected, a cyan air current quietly crept up the two-headed dragon's body. At that moment, the two-headed dragon, over twenty meters long, let out a shrill wail. Its two heads thrashed frantically, its dragon power surging wildly, attempting to resist the increasing cyan air currents. The knight on the dragon saddle shattered and disintegrated the moment the cyan air currents passed through it. It wasn't air currents at all! It was wind elemental elements that had almost condensed into a solid substance! The fate of being swept away by the elemental torrent... This air knight had demonstrated for everyone.
In reality, a sub-dragon is also a dragon! Its terrifying magic resistance is truly remarkable! Even a sub-dragon with a mixed bloodline like a two-headed dragon can withstand high-level magic. However, it's clear that a sub-dragon isn't a giant dragon, and its magic resistance still can't match that of a pure-blooded dragon. Even a two-headed dragon, which can't even match the flying dragons, is already quite proud of itself after resisting a few single-target fifth-level spells. The terrifying torrent of wind elements silently covered the two-headed dragon's body. The first to give out were its vigorously vibrating wings. The terrifying elemental power exploded, and the thin flesh wings were easily minced! Next came the limbs. As dragon scales fluttered, the two-headed dragon wailed and fell from the sky. Without its wings, it could no longer fly...
"Boom!" As a heavy object weighing more than ten tons fell from the sky, the solid ground was suddenly smashed.
"Ah~" The two-headed dragon roared miserably. Its limbs had been strangled by the wind element, revealing its white bones, but it was still alive tenaciously!
"Puff!" With a cracking sound, the scales on the dragon's belly finally lost their ability to protect it. For a moment, the wind element surged, and the internal organs and flesh flew everywhere...
In other words, this Asian dragon is beyond saving...
"Wow! What a tough life!" Huo Lin witnessed the entire process firsthand. Even until the two-headed dragon died, the scales on its back, neck, and head remained unripped by the wind element. This must have been the last bit of its dragon bloodline's stubbornness! The dragon bloodline had greatly strengthened these parts of its body, granting them terrifying magic resistance!
"Hehe! How dare you set your sights on me! Let's see whether you survive or not!" Nix said fiercely, waving her pink fist.
