670. [STAGE 40] Black Dragon Subjugation (4)
Flutter!
The black dragon stood up and spread its huge wings left and right.
It was the wing of a bird with dense black feathers, just like the wing of one of his sons, Winged Huan.
And the feathers shot out in all directions.
Patter!
Whee ae ae ae-!
Thousands of black feathers covered the air.
“Ah!”
“Hehehehe…!”
The human troops on the ground, who had barely come close to the black dragon, were instantly pulverized by the feathers that fell like bombardments.
The armor worn by the soldiers was meaningless in the face of a shower of feathers shooting like machine gun bullets.
The feather-pierced soldiers collapsed with blood pouring down the front and back of the punctured bodies.
Feathers were also shot into the air. The flurry of feathers flying through the sky was like watching a huge flock of birds fly.
The non-airships in the path quickly tried to evade, but the movement of the feathers was much faster.
Patter…!
Kwakwang-!
Feathers were stuck on the armor of the airship, and it became a hedgehog-like hedgehog.
Among them, one non-empty ship that was intensively beaten could not stand it and stumbled until it finally exploded.
And the crash site was, of course, a place where infantrymen were concentrated.
The soldiers screamed and tried to escape, but they couldn’t escape because the troops were tightly packed.
“Aaaaaaa!”
“Get down and get down-”
Kwa Gwa Kwang…!
Sparks rose with a large explosion.
The smell of heat and burnt damp darkness and blood…
the smell of death spreads.
The soldiers gnashed their teeth. Massacres were taking place all around, from side to side, up and down, in front and behind. In front of the black dragon, humans were literally being trampled like ants.
But but- I can’t back down.
Let’s meet face to face. The monster in front of me is a being that can truly destroy the world.
You shouldn’t let this kind of existence go any further. It should not be brought closer to the human world than this.
So the soldiers cried, their legs trembled, they vomited gastric juices, and they poured blood from their wounds… but they didn’t stop charging.
“from now on-!”
“Goaaaa!”
bang! Kugu Palace…!
Another airship exploded in the sky.
This non-empty ship also crashed, but even as the pilot died, it turned and fell towards the body of the black dragon.
The airship crashed at a sharp angle and collided with the black dragon’s hard scales, but failed to inflict significant damage.
However, it covered the black dragon’s gaze even for a moment, giving the cavalry and infantry time to approach.
And finally – the head of the assault team touched the black dragon’s body.
“Aaaaaaa!”
As they ran, the cavalrymen threw their spears and the foot soldiers brandished their swords.
But
go for it!
In front of the black dragon’s hard scales, an ordinary spear knife could not stand it and shattered as it was.
The soldiers at the forefront were taken aback, but eventually they gnashed their teeth and clung to the black dragon with their bodies.
“Get on board!”
“Go over the bastard’s body!”
The soldiers lined up and stood on top of the black dragon’s body.
If it gets crushed like an ant anyway.
You just have to attack like an ant.
Climbing started everywhere. The soldiers held swords and spears like canes and ran upstairs over the monster’s body.
Of course,
Kwajik Quadduk-!
Even in the midst of this, more lives were lost than troops rising.
In one movement of the evil dragon, tens to hundreds of humans died.
However, there were still many humans, and it was impossible to kill all of them with one gesture, even if they were black dragons.
The humans rode the black dragon’s body and climbed up.
Like a blind man groping for an elephant, not knowing whether this is the neck, leg, stomach, or wing…
“Find the weakness!”
“Find the wounds inflicted by the previous expedition!”
“The expedition said they focused their attacks around his neck! Go to the neck-!”
The cavalrymen also began landing on the black dragon’s body.
Kicking off the saddle, he jumped up, clung to the black dragon’s body, stepped on its scales, grabbed its horns, and placed its feet on top of the black monster’s body, which made him chilly just by touching it.
The Allied and Imperial armies departed from the top of the valley on opposite sides of each other and reunited on the back of the monster –
after silently nodding their heads without saying a word.
They blended together and marched toward the black dragon’s head—toward the place where they would die.
“It’s a neck!”
“The monster’s head is over there…!”
“I can see the wounds inflicted by the expedition from the previous battle!”
After descending into the present world, the black dragon combined with the night and recovered all its wounds.
I haven’t erased all the scars yet. The scars left by the guardians of Inse and the heroes in the previous battle remained as traces all over the black dragon’s body. Soldiers flocked in front of the scar.
“Weapons!”
“Deliver the weapon!”
“Forward weapons!”
from the back row to the front row.
From hand to hand, the dragon slayers dropped by the dead knights passed.
The black longsword that was delivered to the front was lifted up in a soldier’s hand and then lowered to the ground.
hook-!
The tip of the black longsword was undoubtedly driven into the scars left by the expedition team earlier.
“…!”
“It was… eaten.”
“Attack goes in…!”
At that time, the black dragon, belatedly discovering the small creatures on top of its body, lightly spewed out fire.
Roaring-!
The soldiers who were caught up all at once turned to ashes and fell dead. The burning corpse screamed and fell under the body of the black dragon.
However, all the scales on the black dragon’s body sprouted in the opposite direction.
So, on the contrary, it served as a barricade to avoid the flames shot from the head to the body.
The soldiers who hid behind the scales and escaped the fire pulled the dragon slayers out of the hands of the dead soldiers and held them back. And screamed and swung.
hook-!
The blade carved a new wound over the scars left by the previous expedition.
“It’s eaten!”
“The attack works!”
“Deliver the weapon! All those who are still alive, come forward!”
“from now on!”
“from now on-!”
Humans wield weapons and die in the flames of evil dragons.
The next human picks up the weapon, swings it, and dies, and then the next human picks up the weapon, swings it, and dies.
Finally, numbers became weapons.
The soldiers continued this gruesome relay at several points where the black dragon had wounds around its neck.
He grabbed a weapon with clotted blood from those who died earlier and swung it with a scream.
Finally, the black dragon was shed blood by human hands. The droplets of evil dragon’s blood were mixed with human blood and flowed down the huge neck.
How long did the attack last?
Wow…!
The point where the black dragon’s back and neck connect.
Due to the Night Bringer becoming gigantic by combining with the night, there was a gap between the protruding vertebrae and scarred scales, and at the end of the dragon slayer, the soldiers hit the dragon slayer incessantly in the gap at the cost of their lives.
Blasphemy!
The gigantic scales opened up incontinence, and
it was great! Chaeng-Grang-!
Gears shattered.
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
The scales were broken and the black dragon’s blood and scale fragments splattered in all directions. Covering it all over his body, the soldier holding the broken black sword gasped violently.
“haha. Look at this everyone…! We completely cut off his scales…”
The soldier on the verge of exhaustion said that and looked back, and
there were no more living humans there.
A cool silence passed. The soldier looked around bewildered… and realized it belatedly.
All the soldiers who attacked other places had already fallen down, and now the only ant left on the black dragon’s body is himself.
Gooooooh….
Before I knew it, the black dragon’s huge head was hanging close.
The black dragon turned its long neck back and looked down at the last remaining ant on its back. The soldier trembled and looked up at the head.
[Cheap.]
After examining the wounds on his back left by minor creatures, the Night Bringer smiled.
[Yes, I have to do this much.]
“….”
[What is your name, human? I’ll remember it in particular as I scarred myself with that insignificant last blow.]
The soldier’s trembling lips lifted with difficulty.
and said
“I don’t have a name to tell you, you bastard salamander…”
The Night Bringer let out a soft laugh.
The next moment, the soldier’s whole body, beaten by the pouring magic power, burst into pieces.
***
Airship main body and assault team destroyed.
He dug through the black dragon’s scars and dug out the wounds, but it never reached his life.
The tumultuous battlefield had become quiet before one knew it.
Swords and spears stuck in the floor below the valley were lined up like tombstones, and human corpses continued endlessly next to the tombstones. The wreckage of the crashed airship was still burning.
There were still dead soldiers in the valley. They still had the will to fight, but
woo woo woo!
When the black dragon raised its head high and let out a long, low cry… it immediately trembled and threw away the weapon in its hand.
dragon lore.
Its deep, sonorous voice was dark and struck fear into humans from the depths of their genes.
Polyps as predators and humans as prey.
The Lore of the Night Bringer reminded humans of this relationship that has been going on since the distant mythical age.
“Hee hee hee…!”
“This is not it. This was something that shouldn’t have happened in the first place…!”
“Run away-!”
“I don’t want to die!”
The bankruptcy has begun.
The last will of the human society was shattered in front of the dragon fear spread by the dragon, the top predator.
Throwing off their weapons, equipment and even their armor, the soldiers turned and fled. I ran toward the teleport gate, the retreat route.
But-
“…?!”
All of the teleport gates were broken and burning.
The soldiers standing in a daze in front of the disappearing retreat lifted their faces, which slowly turned pale from the damp heat felt above their heads.
One of the Night Bringer’s floating heads laughed viciously.
“Aaaaa! AA AA AA!” Kwajik
the bodies of the soldiers sitting down and screaming
!
The huge head swallowed it whole and crushed it.
“Kuh…”
MacMillan, who was watching from inside the airship, trembled.
The six auxiliary heads of the black dragon were being dealt with by the king’s magician unit and the six airships that had separated from the main unit. In the face of the overwhelming firepower of the six heads, the human side was eventually defeated.
Since it had six dead heads, it didn’t have as much intelligence as the main body, but its attack power was terrifying.
The King’s magician troops could not stand it and were annihilated, and the non-empty ships that fought together also crashed leaving only two ships.
In the two surviving airships, wounded soldiers were accommodated to their limits. MacMillan looked around at the dying wizards and bit down on his pipe until it broke.
“Retreat, retreat…! Subjugation is a failure. Retreat everyone! Regroup at the Crossroads!”
With few men left alive enough to retreat, MacMillan, as the commander, turned up the volume of the communications device so that it could be heard throughout the battlefield.
“Retreat-!”
“The teleport gate has been destroyed! Escape by land to the next point!”
“Survivors help survivors! We must retreat!”
The light cavalry, deployed to the rear of the Imperial Army, had the most survivors.
They put wounded soldiers who were groaning on the battlefield in the back of the saddle and started to run away.
The floating heads of the black dragons tried to eat them, but the last two flying ships desperately stopped them by spraying barrages.
Escorted by two non-airships, the cavalry, which rescued the survivors, ran through the woods and fled.
The non-empty ship also flew through the sky in an unstable position and headed north.
[Yes, run away. Let at least one more live.]
The Night Bringer sneered at the human army that was scattered like ants in all directions.
[Doesn’t that make the final despair even greater?]
Then, the black dragon lay on its stomach on the floor and crouched down slowly-
Hook…!
I started to catch my breath.
The entire body of the black dragon swelled up with tears. Flames, magic breath, and hatred began to be sucked into the body of the monster.
The six heads that were hunting survivors also slowly returned to the side of the main body and began to spin round and round to help the black dragon concentrate its mana.
The skirmisher observing this from inside the airship screamed.
“No Nom is preparing his breath!”
“…!”
Macmillan looked back pale.
The skirmisher was a soldier from the observation team who had previously observed the Black Dragon’s first breath at the Black Lake.
The soldier continued his report in a broken voice, with tears of fear pouring from his eyes as he held the telescope.
“This is the third breath since he landed on the ground! The direction is…”
MacMillan closed his eyes tightly.
“It’s a cross road-!”
