Chapter 385 Battlefield of the Dragon Clan
Chapter 385 Battlefield of the Dragon Clan
In the sky, tens of thousands of flying demons were almost wiped out.
The LD-2000 close-in weapon system and laser weapons are still relentlessly attacking.
Seeing the firepower overflow, it was even aimed at the demons on the ground.
On the ground, the army of over 400,000 has already lost more than a third of its strength.
Fear flashed in the eyes of a sixth-tier commander. It gritted its teeth, its eyes filled with resentment.
But looking at the piles of corpses around it, it ultimately made that decision.
This war... is unwinnable.
It roared to the sky, its voice filled with resentment.
"withdraw!!!"
Upon hearing the order, the demon army immediately began to retreat.
The army receded like a receding tide, fleeing over the corpses of their own kind.
Those who reacted slowly were trampled into mincemeat by the other demons in their panic.
More often than not, the elves pressed their advantage and attacked from behind.
Especially the tech legion, keep chasing them down!
After a long while, the demon army completely departed, leaving behind only corpses scattered all over the ground.
Black blood mixed with mud emitted a foul stench.
The elven warriors ceased firing.
They watched the departing demon army, their rapid breathing gradually calming down.
Then, cheers erupted.
"We won!"
"We won!"
"The city has been retaken!"
Some jumped up and brandished their weapons.
Some of them hugged each other, their eyes reddening.
Some collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
Cheers resounded across the battlefield, and the earth seemed to echo them.
Adrian stood on the high ground, his eyes slightly red.
He looked at the tree-man fortress in the distance, still shrouded in smoke.
All around were piles of demon corpses.
The metal wall was covered in bloodstains.
In this battle, the Elven race won a great victory.
They not only repelled the demon army, but also recaptured a city stronghold.
The elves finally won a resounding victory!
He waited a moment, until the cheers of the army subsided slightly, and then immediately gave the order:
"Clean up the battlefield!"
"Treat the wounded!"
"Collect all the demon corpses!"
These corpses can be sold to the Great Xia for a very good price. They can't just be buried somewhere like before; that would be too wasteful.
The elven warriors immediately sprang into action.
They carried the wounded and collected the bodies.
A warrior carried the corpse of a lesser demon, his face full of excitement.
A warrior was dragging a demon hound, humming a little tune.
Adrian said happily:
"These corpses are enough for us to exchange for a lot of equipment."
He looked into the distance, where there was still more land that originally belonged to the elves.
"This is just the beginning."
"Now it's our turn to counterattack."
.......
While the elves launched their counterattack, the dragons were also gathering their forces, preparing to unleash their power.
The Land of Dragon's Rest.
The border between the Holy Humans and the Elves.
A desolate land surrounded by two powerful clans, shaped like a wine bottle, or a hammer, with a large top and a long tail.
This is the home of one of the oldest races on the continent of Terra, and the habitat of dragons.
Dragons live for tens of thousands of years, far exceeding the lifespan of elves.
For them, a single slumber can last for years, and when they awaken, the outside world has changed beyond recognition.
Their long lives have worn down their ambitions and fostered an aloof and indifferent attitude towards worldly affairs.
The territory is enough to sleep in.
As for wealth, the Holy Humans always have fools who want to become dragon knights—oh no, they like to call themselves warriors—and it will come to them in droves.
The dragon race used to be extremely troublesome.
Later, they simply established a rule that if you wanted to challenge the dragon race and wouldn't be retaliated against by the dragon race, you had to hand over a certain amount of wealth to challenge them.
On the one hand, it satisfies the dragon's love of collecting shiny things like jewels and gold coins, and on the other hand, it allows them to accumulate wealth and buy food that is not available in the Dragon's Lair.
With hundreds of thousands of years of collecting and deliberate accumulation, the wealth of the dragon race is unimaginable.
Returning to the original topic, with a "don't care" attitude, the dragon race remained completely unconcerned even when surrounded by the holy humans and elves.
Have you ever seen a human and an ant really get into a serious fight?
Fortunately, the Holy Humans and the Elves were still somewhat aware of their own limitations.
Both tribes had grown and expanded their territories, and fought countless wars, but upon arriving here, neither dared to act recklessly.
Even though they coveted the suspended crystals of the Dragon's Rest Land, they didn't dare to press too hard and all behaved themselves.
Everyone knows what the consequences would be if tens of thousands of dragons were enraged at the same time.
That's a terrifying power that could wipe any country off the map!
Because dragons have an absurd level of defense!
That is, its armor resistance and magic resistance are both very high, which is simply outrageous. It is undoubtedly the darling of the world!
Ordinary soldiers simply couldn't break through!
Therefore, the elves and the holy humans tacitly left a narrow passage thousands of kilometers long and tens of kilometers wide for the dragons to enter and exit.
This would help avoid unnecessary friction and war.
This passage is a route that the dragons usually like to use when foraging, so it is somewhat winding.
The dragons were originally unwilling. Why should I be accused of invading their territory just because I go out and come and go freely?
How about we see who truly rules Terra? And who lives the longest?
This led to the dragons continuing to act as they pleased for decades, destroying crops of both races and causing panic among the people.
However, neither tribe could do anything about them.
You can't hit them, you can only scold them.
You yell at the other person and they completely ignore you; sigh, they're playing the silent treatment game.
The elves and the holy humans finally couldn't take it anymore. In order to maintain the dignity of their nations and to make the dragons behave, the holy humans and the elves naturally had to find a way.
Dragons fly around in search of food. They are usually lazy and sleep when they are bored, sometimes for years at a time. They are very easy to raise!
Just treat it like having a pet!
So the two tribes sent envoys to negotiate.
After a series of negotiations, mainly because the dragon got annoyed by the nagging, a contract was signed.
The Holy Humans are responsible for supplying meat.
The elves worship a nature goddess, and their wood-elemental mages can accelerate the ripening of plants, thus providing the dragons with a stable source of vegetarian food.
Both races coveted the dragons' wealth and territory, so they adopted a trade system where the dragons paid for food.
In reality, the bottom line for both groups is that a portion can be provided free of charge.
This is clearly a win-win situation.
The simple-minded dragon race is no match for the politicians of both races.
This saved the dragon race from a series of troubles caused by foraging for food.
The three parties have formed a stable symbiotic relationship.
The reason dragons dislike the Holy Humans is simply because the Holy Humans have a profession called Dragon Knight...
Then, the demons arrived.
They tore through space and descended upon Terra!
The demons invaded, and the lands of the elves and holy humans shrank drastically.
That narrow passage also became the entrance for the demons to invade the dragon race.
The Elf race, in particular, found it difficult to withstand the large number of high-level flying units from the Demon race.
They needed more flying units, so they set their sights on the dragons' combat power.
The elves stated that if their race were to perish, the dragon race would return to a state of famine.
On the land corrupted by demonic energy, they couldn't even find enough food to survive.
