Chapter 1927: Chapter 1086: Unexpected Assistance_2

Even a dragon-slaying warrior who is respected ended up like this, let alone someone like Nolan who isn’t famous yet.

After all, ordinary civilians and even common powerhouses simply can’t distinguish between the two branches of necromancers, namely “Controller of Beasts” and “Controller of Humans.”

With the reputation tarnished by “Controller of Humans,” those like Frank, Nolan, and Lina, who are “Controller of Beasts,” could only silently endure it.

Secondly, under the premise of equal strength, a living and energetic dragon is obviously more intimidating than an undead dragon.

Because although dragons are creatures with a strong territorial sense, they mostly only operate within their group’s territory.

This means that offending one dragon could very well mean offending a huge group of dragons.

In the long history of the various human clans, there have been frequent national tragedies triggered by the extermination of a dragon, resulting in revenge from the dragon group.

Therefore, attacking a living dragon is clearly not a cost that ordinary forces can easily bear.

“A Sound Dragon, is it? I didn’t expect such a rare dragon species to stand with those despicable otherworlders.”

Upon seeing the Sound Dragon alternating in the sky with the mysterious dragon, William’s gaze grew even darker, seemingly weighing something in his mind.

Previously, he attacked the mysterious dragon with no hesitation because he had heard rumors of a rogue Red Dragon being hunted by its kin and mysteriously disappearing six or seven hundred years ago.

Moreover, the rogue Red Dragon had a noticeable scar on its neck, identical to the one on the mysterious dragon.

With the detailed intelligence from the battle of Galaxy City, confirming that the mysterious dragon was indeed the rogue Red Dragon hunted by its kin, William naturally had no fear of revenge from the Red Dragon Clan.

But this sudden Sound Dragon had no intelligence, which meant that once it was killed, the possibility of encountering revenge from the Dragon Group couldn’t be excluded.

“My King, the origin of this suddenly appeared Sound Dragon is unknown. How should we respond?”

As William pondered, Jered’s respectful query reached his ears again.

Upon hearing, William gritted his teeth, feeling the noticeably declining morale around him, and still delivered a command full of killing intent.

“What’s the difference between slaying one dragon and two? Since this Sound Dragon stands in our way, what is there to hesitate about? Order the airship troops commander to eliminate those two flying lizards at all costs!”

Upon hearing Saint King’s order, Jered hesitated slightly and then asked, “My King, our battle airship troops have already lost over thirty percent. If we focus entirely on those two giant dragons, what about the target Sunset Fortress?”

“Rest assured, don’t forget the secret weapon I arranged earlier, which will also turn Sunset Fortress into a purgatory.”

Saint King leaned casually on the golden throne, propping his chin with one hand as he sneered, “Despicable otherworld trash, let’s see how you turn the tide this time.”

With the Saint King’s order issued, up in the smoke-filled sky, the remaining six to seven hundred battle airships of the Grimm Kingdom reformed into several assault formations, rushing ferociously towards Leo Ray, the mysterious dragon, and the Sound Dragon.

During this process, although our anti-aircraft legion and the magic thunder net continued to play a significant role, with airships sporadically trailing smoke as they plummeted from the sky, the opponent’s overwhelming formation was still unstoppable, demonstrating that our firepower was severely lacking.

“It seems the opponent intends to take care of us and the Sound Dragon first.”

Leo Ray squinted slightly, staring at the incoming follow-up battle airship formations and spoke to the mysterious dragon: “Prepare yourself, this time we’ll fight alongside Nolan’s Sound Dragon.”

“Yes, my Lord, I can hardly wait to teach these insects a lesson.”

The spirited and menacing voice of the mysterious dragon flowed into Leo Ray’s ears.

Then, after informing Nolan of the plan to fight side by side, Leo Ray mounted the mysterious dragon and charged directly at the massive fleet of airships.

Leo Ray clearly understood that as long as these ground-destroying entities were kept away from over the fortress, our absolute defense barrier would be as solid as gold.

For a moment, the dim light of fierce flames and the sharp sound of sonic waves filled the sky, delivering one death invitation after another to the giant fleet of airships.

Meanwhile, the battle airship troops of Grimm Kingdom didn’t flinch, retaliating with various spells, while golden magic chains fiercely attacked from all directions, attempting once again to restrain our giant dragons.

Though our attacks were fierce, the opponent’s numbers were overwhelming; rushing forward one after another, both sides reached a stalemate in the sky, unable to gain any advantage over each other.

“My Lord…”

On the fortress walls, Ariel Watson watched the mysterious dragon racing through the sky, her hand clutching the front of her magic robes.

However, Ariel Watson’s fair face soon resumed a solemn expression, with the crown on her forehead shining brightly even amid the haze of smoke.

This newly appointed Queen of Coldflame understood clearly that since Lord was fighting fiercely in the sky, the ground was up to her to protect, ensuring Lord wouldn’t be distracted!

“Coldflame Kingdom’s warriors, behind us are the aged parents and young children; we must never allow these invaders an inch closer!”

Ariel Watson’s clear voice was both firm and authoritative, leaving no room for doubt.

Hearing Ariel Watson’s rallying cry, coupled with the stabilization of the aerial battle, and the emergence of a second aiding dragon; our troops’ morale naturally soared, as magic cannon fire and dense arrows continuously poured onto the opposing absolute defense barrier.

Simultaneously, to further stabilize our initially teetering absolute defense barrier, magic powerhouses like Jasper Richardson joined in providing energy, rendering the opponent’s increasingly fierce offensive futile against us.

Just when everything seemed to be stabilizing, an unforeseen change occurred again.

In the pitch-black night sky to the fortress’s right, neat formations of shadows rapidly approached.

Blinking red beacons were incredibly glaring, while the mechanical hum of “buzz buzz” followed suit.

Under the increasingly clear cigar-shaped black silhouettes, rapidly rotating propellers were distributed, the source of the hum.

“Another massive fleet of battle airships?!”

Ariel Watson watched in growing tension as the colossal figures, all at least 150 meters long, became more defined.

In particular, the giant bomb bays suspended beneath the battle airships exuded a dangerously foreboding aura, sending a chill down Ariel Watson’s spine.

Beneath her astonishment, Ariel Watson’s eyes narrowed as she quickly noticed.

These colossal airships weren’t engraved with the golden shield emblem of the Grimm Kingdom but rather adorned with a fierce, teeth-baring red skull, resembling a red demon overlooking the earth.

“The sky pirate organization Bloody Skull?!”

Ariel Watson immediately realized, clutching her fist tightly and furrowing her brows, “I never thought Saint King William, as the ruler of a nation, would choose to collaborate with those notorious sky pirates!”

“Your Majesty, it seems the enemy is determined to bring bloodshed and disaster to us.”

Qiana’s gaze was equally grave as she asked Ariel Watson, “What should we do now?”

Listening to the hint of anxiety in Qiana’s words, Ariel Watson’s mind began racing.

This fleet of at least 300 pirate airships approached the fortress’s flanks grandly, with impressive speed.

Meanwhile, our anti-aircraft legion, the magic thunder net, Lord, and Sound Dragon were all fully engaged in dealing with the Grimm Kingdom’s battle airship formations.

If we redirect the anti-aircraft legion and the magic thunder net now, Lord’s pressure would multiply, likely plunging into crisis again.

However, if we don’t do so, the pirate fleet would soon approach the fortress overhead, and the consequences would be unspeakable.

With this in mind, beads of sweat formed on Ariel Watson’s fair forehead.

The young queen found herself in a tight spot without an easy decision.
