These flying monsters were so good at attacking with fire and utilising wind to evade the first wave of attacks from my drags.
Yet just before we met, I used my separation ground ability of my chariot, raised a big chunk of earth high to them and smashed it directly in their centre.
This attack couldn’t be evaded, especially when I controlled its movement and direction. Just slamming heavily over these lizards ended up dispersing them all over the place.
I killed their momentum in this simple way, and I just didn’t stop at this opening move. I controlled the raised piece of earth to circulate around the entire aerial battlefield, preventing any lizard to regroup and sending more far away from the centre.
Then my drugs came. They simply hunted down the dispersed winged lizards and burned them into ash.
“Follow my piece of dirt,” I shouted and the drags followed my instructions. I placed that piece of ground at the forefront, while flying behind the rock with my chariot.
As for my dragons, they surrounded me and took every chance to kill any winged lizard.
The battle didn’t last over ten minutes. The entire five thousand group of winged lizards ended up scattered into a few hundreds all over the battlefield.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDuring this fight, the enemy at the ground tried to hunt my drags down using archers and even ballista bolts. Yet I moved fast and shielded all my drags using my chariot shield at some point.
“Retreat!” After killing most of the winged lizards, I gave the order to go back. I left the ground battle for ten minutes yet things weren’t that good.
The human losses were staggering fast all over the place. Sheer momentum and morale wasn’t enough to support them against such a large number of enemies.
“Fallen gods… Heed my words…” seeing the bitter end coming faster than I expected, I decided to give them another hand, “circulate the frontline and launch all your supreme attacks without reservation.”
*Clang!* Clang!* *Clang!*
Even before any of them reacted, I started taking out essences enough to resupply this consumption.
If this was another time and place, I wouldn’t do that. But this battle held a great importance for me. I had to elongate it for a few hours, keeping such momentum and reigniting their dying wills here.
This fight had to look great or else I wouldn’t be able to use it for later.
Listening to my orders and seeing the shards of essences I got out for them, my fallen gods roared in unison before they started their deadly combined attacks.
What made the frontline crumble was the densely packed enemy lines. They seemed to change their strategy while I wasn’t here, moving their lines in waves after waves, consistently assaulting the frontline.
This helped in refilling the gaps created by the attacks of my fallen gods. Soulers and Selvigiters tried their best to control the situation, but this was beyond their abilities.
But right now the combined supreme attacks of my fallen gods stacking one on top of another cleared a large number of enemies in a short time.
This also broke the momentum of the enemy, shifting the balance of this battle back to my brave human fighters.
Like expected, they started to move forward, push the frontline again while filling the gaps faster than their enemies.
And with the help of my soulers and selvigiters, they managed to crush their unstable enemies fast.
“Drags… Go there and burn the densely packed enemies anywhere around the frontline for five hundred metres distance,” I turned to my small drag army and gave them the order.
*Roar!* my valiant drags roared and flew directly at the frontline. They flew in one big group, flying fast around the frontline and started spreading death and chaos all over the place.
I looked to the side where my fallen gods were replenishing their exhausted supreme attacks. These fallen gods were really priceless. If I just got enough troops to face such a million forces, I wouldn’t have given up this fight.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut things only looked this good for almost an hour. With time exhaustion took a great deal from the human forces here. They started to lose in great numbers again and this time I didn’t intervene to stop this.
This fight was destined to be our loss from the start. Instead of defending them again, I started to penetrate deeply inside the enemy ranks.
I regrouped my entire forces around my chariot and started a frenetic killing spree all over the place. I didn’t consider retreating until all my fallen gods exhausted their supreme attacks once more.
“Come back,” I led them back into the city. The human forces were already gone hours ago. This battle lasted for six straight hours and I killed a good amount of the enemy forces, almost approximating five hundred thousand in the worst cases.
That was thanks to my forces’ strength and their outbreak against their enemies with everything they got. Also the human forces did well as I estimated they killed almost over one hundred thousand by their own hands.
Considering their lower numbers and low morale at the start, adding to this mix their true lack of experiencing real battles here, I saw this as a great outcome.
“That Fang… He is a coward to call back his forces like this!” as I returned to the city I knew why the Selvators didn’t help in this fight at all.
There wasn’t a single one inside the city. If the enemy wanted to swarm and control the city he could, but it seemed my existence and the change I caused to the human forces here made that illusionist archlord shift everything and target me.
He tried to kill me many times during this fight. Yet he failed every single time. I was always raising my guard against him, and even stationed a couple of soulers to help and kill him if his shadow appeared and I was busy fighting.
“Time to visit Elizabeth city then.”
