Mad Dragon attacking the city?
Edgar was montarily stunned, then imdiately reacted.
It was that dragon-like monster that repeatedly caused trouble at the border, with the highest bounty level in the adventurer's guild, nad the "Madness Qi Dragon" by adventurers!
In short, Mad Dragon.
It was a strange dragon that suddenly appeared on the border of the warrior country, not recorded in the current dostic Dragon Clan genealogy, aning it was a wild dragon!
Ever since that creature appeared, the border had been repeatedly destroyed, with even various unexpected natural disasters occurring. The warrior country organized many campaigns against the Mad Dragon, the largest even had Temude personally leading troops to suppress it, but all ended in failure without exception.
Too powerful, this creature was simply too powerful and utterly invincible.
At that ti, the warrior country had just ceased hostilities with the Yanor Kingdom, and the army was recuperating, unable to muster enough forces to campaign against that creature.
Thus, they adopted a conciliatory policy, simply put, evacuating the border residents and treating the Mad Dragon as a large rare animal, creating a nature reserve around it.
At first, this thod was quite effective, and the Mad Dragon was content to stay within its own reserve.
But in recent years, sohow, perhaps out of boredom seeking new excitent, it appeared multiple tis in towns inhabited by humans, bringing destruction whenever it appeared, causing panic and a mass exodus of the border population inward.
This led to the later failed campaign led by Temude, where King Banto also decided it was ti to get serious, sending the most elite troops to capture the Mad Dragon once and for all, setting the ti for after the War Festival.
But unexpectedly, it seems the opponent is attacking now!?
"Damn, is it planning to strike first?"
Edgar held onto his mage hat with one hand to prevent it from being blown away by the fierce wind, casting a no-fly technique with the other hand towards the sky.
In the next mont, the roars of the Mad Dragon were heard again from the horizon, a repelling force transmitted back through the magic, and Edgar felt as if his chest had been violently struck by an iron block, imdiately spitting blood and almost toppling over.
He was utterly shocked, this Mad Dragon seed to have gotten stronger!?
When he looked up again, the massive shadow had already been cast upon him.
It was a colossal dragon whose body was larger than the entire arena, its wings almost blocking out the sun.
A lithe and powerful quadrupedal body, a head adorned with sharp spikes like a demon, each scale stood like towering peaks, with terrifyingly hot lava flowing between them, spreading devastation with every flap of its wings as molten rock rained down upon the world.
The Imperial Capital maintained a constant operation of forbidden curse-level protective shields, the rain-like lava splattered upon the do-shaped shield as if heaven had opened a window to pour lava down, making the scene from below quite spectacular.
The sky is raining fire!
"This creature...."
Edgar widened his eyes, murmuring to himself:
"I rember it was much smaller before...."
The biggest dragon within the warrior country was like comparing a tire to a car against this creature.
"Boom!"
The giant claw of the Mad Dragon landed directly on the transparent magic shield, causing chaotic ripples, and it unleashed an endless roar towards the sky!
The entire arena fell into chaos in the blink of an eye, and the Imperial Capital was thrown into turmoil.
Trained soldiers imdiately escorted the King and Prince back to the more fortified Royal Palace; except for Lanle displaying immature panic, both Banto and Fred maintained calm faces as they stared at the Mad Dragon, only to hear Banto command:
"Have the Dragon Cavalry and Flying Dragon Legion engage, prepare the Dragon Slaying Giant Cannon. Daring to invade the Imperial Capital is an affront to our nation's dignity, we cannot allow it to return unhard, furthermore...."
Banto's eyes shimred with a cold light, his voice dropping like venom.
"Investigate the reason for the Mad Dragon's appearance; if it did fly all the way from the border, separated by dozens of cities, why didn't any report it?"
Saying this, his gaze was murderous, intense enough to kill many people.
Within three minutes of the Mad Dragon's appearance.
The ancient fortress of the Imperial Capital, once constructed for war, ca to life.
Hundreds and thousands of Magic Cannons rose from the high platforms scattered throughout the city, with soldiers steadily loading ammunition, awaiting the command for the first volley.
Over a hundred Dragon Cavalry readied themselves, sharing tender stares, and even kisses, with their Flying Dragons before departure.
The Royal Palace rumbled and transford, buildings shifted outward as a colossal Magic Cannon stood upright, its black cannon mouth resembling the gates of hell.
And the Mad Dragon?
It continued to roar at the sky without making any other movents, appearing to be not much of a threat?
However, its roars penetrated into the city, causing so with weaker constitutions to faint directly, and the roars alone could damage the protective shield. What horrific scenes would unfold when it truly started to wreak havoc?
It must not be allowed to continue any further!
Even if they can't slay it right away, it's imperative to at least chase it away.
"Fire the cannons!"
With the official's command, thousands of Magic Power Cannons thundered, the Mad Dragon was imdiately engulfed in sparks!
It finally let out a different muffled groan this ti, fragnts of scales crashing onto the shield; without the shield's barrier, the fallen debris would surely have resulted in countless casualties.
Under the cover of the cannon fire, the Dragon Cavalry charged beyond the shield, transforming into dragons in unison, each heading towards what should be the weakest parts of the Mad Dragon's body, deploying attacks, the sky overfilled with roars and cannon fire temporarily.
And the Mad Dragon?
It stood as an indestructible mountain amid a stormy sea, the cannon fire seeming to rely scrub off the dirt from its scales, the allegedly weak points the Dragon Knights attacked were unimaginably hard, and without showcasing any other special abilities, just its overt body features were already jaw-dropping.
The only chance to inflict serious damage appears to lie with the Dragon Slaying Giant Cannon, which requires an extended charge to fire!
The Mad Dragon flapped its wings, and as it moved, a massive amount of wind elent magic power converged here. The special effect was like that of a Steel Dragon but mixed with the scorching flas of a firestorm, instantly sweeping the Dragon Knights away, like a human waving away flies!
After driving away the annoying flies, the Mad Dragon raised its head to the sky, opening its bloody jaws.
"Roar!"
It still let out a roar!
"What the hell is this thing trying to do!?" Edgar had to cover his ears. In his view, the Mad Dragon didn't seem intent on destruction, but its re presence here was an unforgivable original sin to the people of the Imperial Capital.
Wasn't there any way to drive it away!
The attack from the Imperial Capital continued, the entire army mobilized, the magicians with flying dragon protective gear in the sky, chanting together for powerful magic. In the blink of an eye, dozens of magic spells approaching the level of forbidden curses lit up.
The permanent combat power of the Imperial Capital was quite sufficient. Even if Eliphas ca as before, it could temporarily give the opponent a hard ti without advantage.
The Mad Dragon finally stopped roaring at this mont. It seed to perceive a threat, looked down at the magicians within the protective shield, its gaze bringing imnse pressure.
"Die!"
The magicians made the classic weakling's statent, releasing their chanted magic at this mont, launching it with the second round of bombardnt at the Mad Dragon.
It was at this mont that an incomprehensible sound ca from the Mad Dragon's throat. A crimson magic array painted with incomprehensible characters instantly lit up in front of it. The red dragon bones of the sa color appeared within, wrapping the Mad Dragon tightly from head to abdon, looking at first glance like a color-changed Gluttonous Demon Dragon.
The magic and shells collided with the dragon bones in an instant, causing the entire Imperial Capital to tremble. When the dust settled, the dragon bones were full of cracks, but the Mad Dragon hiding behind them remained unscathed.
"How could this be...." the magicians once again made the classic weakling's statent.
The Mad Dragon was no longer obsessed with aningless roaring at this ti. It seed to be angered by the continuous attacks from people, opening its two pairs of massive wings, and dozens of magic arrays of varying sizes appeared around it, flashing with the light of destruction.
"Quickly raise the protective shield to maximum power! Hurry up!" The people exclaid in astonishnt.
"This guy is definitely not that Mad Dragon," Edgar muttered to himself, "if the Mad Dragon at the border was this strong, the Warrior Country wouldn't have been able to hold back for long. Who exactly is this guy!"
The people hurriedly raised the magic shield to the likely overloaded maximum power, preparing to face the impending attack from the Mad Dragon. Everyone was on edge, worried about whether the protective shield could withstand it.
At this mont, a blue jet suddenly soared up from the Royal Palace, propelling a rmaid ford by illusory pearl-like bubbles towards the Mad Dragon.
"Is that... Lanle's summoned familiar?"
A familiar could be understood as a magic power-ford assistant, responsible for doing various tasks for the magician. Each person's familiar would have a different appearance based on their ntal state.
As for why Lanle's familiar was a beautiful female rmaid...who knows.
"What's he doing sending his familiar there? Could he possibly be trying to stop the Mad Dragon?"
The people didn't believe him, after all, the army had been ineffective.
The closer the rmaid got to the Mad Dragon, the more she was roasted by the high temperature, her body quickly disappearing, but before vanishing completely, she threw the stone-like object in her hand towards the Mad Dragon's head with effort.
On closer inspection, that stone seed to be an image stone brought by the pigeons?
The image stone shattered right in front of the Mad Dragon's eyes, but before it broke, it successfully played its first image.
In an instant, the Mad Dragon only saw a massive, imposing figure descending from the sky, charging fiercely at it!
What a terrifying figure, it had never in its life felt such intense killing intent and fighting qi that broke through the sky!
Latan charged right in front of the Mad Dragon, followed by an unstoppable, deafening explosion!
"Ow!"
The Mad Dragon imdiately let out a miserable wail, the dozens of magic arrays poised to strike suddenly disappeared, and its entire deanor seed depressed for a mont.
A second later.
"Empty——"
Under everyone's astonished gaze, the Mad Dragon let out a sound that seed like fear, flapping its wings straight to the sky, quickly disappearing over the horizon.
The Mad Dragon...ran away!
Everything happened so suddenly that people were caught off guard.
The sky over the Imperial Capital returned to silence.
"Lanle, what did you do?"
In the Royal Palace, Banto looked at his son in disbelief. Since when had his son grown to the point of driving away a Mad Dragon.
Lanle took a deep breath, showing a relieved expression, and said:
"I just let that stupid dragon take a look at the Battle Festival."
"Battle Festival?"
Banto repeated the term, still feeling wondrous.
Latan in that image could actually scare off a living Mad Dragon?
"Father, I have decided."
Lanle's expression changed several tis, finally saying resolutely:
"I am going to the Sain Dungeon right now, to take a look at that Battle Festival!"
The Shattered Star General Latan, who could scare off the Mad Dragon just by an image....
He had to see him no matter what!
