In Earth Breaker, humans were not the most talented creatures, but dragons were the best in all aspects. Every dragon was born with the ability to control elements that surpassed ordinary human sorcerers. Even the weakest young dragon had the ability to sense and control magic that humans could not compare with. Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ordinary Dragons were already like that, so Merlinsera, who was a pure-blooded Dragon, was naturally even stronger. By the standards of Magicians, her strength had already reached a level that humans couldn't even hope to match.
However, even though she had absolute confidence in her elemental control, her pretty face was pale, and her lips were tightly pursed. She stared ahead without blinking …
The seal that had troubled her for a long time was finally broken by her with all her might. However, what she saw sent chills down her spine. The trees around her had disappeared, and the ground beneath her feet had turned into flat stone slabs. Apart from the drastic change in scenery, the elements she had released didn't dissipate. Instead, they gradually expanded and surged towards her!
This didn't make sense at all, because the elements wouldn't gather again after a spell was released. She suddenly raised her hand and tried to forcefully suppress the violent movement of the elements. However, she paid the price for her recklessness in an instant.
Like a venomous snake that had been provoked, the seemingly gentle elements suddenly broke free from Merlinsera's control and rushed towards her …
The "magic backlash" appeared without warning.
Merlinsera had never experienced a "magic backlash" in her life because it could only happen under two circumstances. Either a newbie who had just learned how to control the elements got burned, or someone forcefully reversed the flow of the elements …
However, this Shadow Dragon couldn't think anymore. The intense pain in her head made her groan, and blood immediately flowed down the corner of her mouth. She pressed her hand between her eyebrows and tried hard to suppress the injury in her body. However, when she tried to gather the elements again, her pretty face instantly turned transparent …
The "Dragon Crystal" in her body had lost its effect.
Dragons were powerful at spells mainly because they had the "Dragon Crystal" that humans didn't have. They had a vast amount of magic power, and their gathering speed was innately many times faster. But now … Merlinsera's "Dragon Crystal" had lost its effect.
Like an eagle that had lost its wings, Merinthra felt dizzy from the sudden misfortune. She raised her head and stared blankly at the cracked barrier above her head.
"Why … why are you doing this …"
*****
At the same time, Roddy's party was running towards the dungeon with all their might.
In such a chaotic situation, the Barbarians led by Erwin did not have any formation at all. They just charged forward mindlessly, but because there were no Snow Monsters turning around to fight back, they really opened up a path!
"Move forward! Move forward! "
Irwin took the lead and rushed forward with large strides. Although the barbarians were born with strong nerves, the scene in front of them caused their scalps to go numb … Although the snow monsters around them did not look at them, the stench and roars caused them to feel an irrepressible fear.
Who knew if these monsters would drown the team in the next second?
As blood splattered everywhere, Sodelor caught up to the barbarians. As he ran, he gave orders to the soldiers around him. The most important thing about an elite soldier was that they would not panic in the face of danger. Even though they were not in formation, the forty or so soldiers still maintained their distance from each other through tacit understanding. They did not step on each other or fall behind. As the whole team "flowed" with the army of Snow Monsters, the whole team did not have the urgency to break out of the encirclement. From a distance, it looked like they were being carried by the Snow Monsters toward the dungeon …
Sodelor did not dare to relax. He rushed to the front of the barbarians and began to lead the team toward the entrance of the "outer city wall" dungeon. He knew very well that although the pressure on the team seemed to have decreased, in fact, it was all borne by Roddy alone.
"Damn it … Why is there everything!"
At the back of the team, Roddy's arrows were mixed with undisguised curses. The low-level snow monsters were instantly killed while the high-level snow monsters could only slow them down. As for the tank-like 'Demonized Snow Monsters', Rody could only rely on exploding arrows to break tree trunks to block them.
If that was all, the team would have no problem rushing to the dungeon safely. But now, Roddy found that ultimate Snow Monsters with Boss titles such as "Morakshi" and "Tugea" had appeared one after another.
These were all monsters over level 40. Roddy could not even last one round against them.
The hope in his heart had completely disappeared. Roddy only hoped that the team could move faster. He shot down the nearest Snow Monster, but when he turned around, he found an arrow flying from beside him and nailing a Snow Monster dozens of meters away.
Roddy was stunned. He turned his head and shouted, "Don't you understand what I said?! Follow the team! "
Not far away, Natha, who was about to shoot a second arrow, paused. Roddy's stern words even made her shiver. But seeing his expression, Natha bit her lips, hesitated for half a second, but obediently turned around and ran.
Akasha was also at the back of the team. She slowed down and was about to cast a shield for Roddy, but Natha rushed over and grabbed her arm. Roddy looked at their backs and heaved a sigh of relief. There was only one thought left in his mind: As long as we break through the encirclement of the Snow Monsters, everything will be fine …
We must rush into the dungeon!
At this moment, thousands of Snow Monsters were crowded together outside the dungeon. The scene was like a school of fish attracted by bait. But no matter how these wild and violent creatures squeezed together, they kept a distance of more than ten meters from the entrance of the dungeon. They did not dare to move forward.
"Charge!"
The soldiers who rushed over from outside had no other way out. They could only roar and launch a final charge. But unexpectedly, the team did not feel the slightest resistance. They broke through the encirclement like a knife cutting through butter and reached the entrance of the dungeon!
The Snow Monsters did not have any intention of attacking them. Even when they were cut down along the way, they did not fight back at all.
This scene made Sodelor, who was prepared for a fierce battle, feel very lucky. But then he continued to advance with his nerves tense. He was calm and cautious. He had already read Roddy's plan. At this time, he led the team to the leftmost path and entered the "Outer City Wall" dungeon.
The Barbarians and a group of armored soldiers followed in a line. They disappeared into the invisible barrier in a wave of elemental fluctuations.
Natha and Akasha followed at the back of the team. After the two broke through the encirclement of the Snow Monsters, they stopped at the empty space in front of the dungeon at the same time. They turned their heads at the same time, one holding a bow and the other casting a spell. They were both prepared to cover Roddy. The ferocious faces of the Snow Monsters filled their vision, but for some reason, they stopped 15 meters away. Roddy's figure could be faintly seen, which made the two extremely worried.
In just three or four seconds, he jumped on the back of a Snow Monster with a short bow in hand. He jumped seven or eight meters and landed in front of the two.
Seeing that the team in front had entered the dungeon, Roddy breathed a sigh of relief. But in order to ensure the safety of Natha and Akasha, he still stayed at the back of the team. He held the short bow in his hand tightly, and an arrow was nocked on the string. As he ran, he aimed at the group of Snow Monsters behind him.
The last five or six meters were covered in a few steps. But just as Akasha was about to step into the invisible dungeon entrance, the light above her head suddenly flashed.
"Ah!"
"Ah —"
At the same time, the little Cleric who was supposed to enter the dungeon seemed to have hit an invisible wall. Her body bounced back and she fell on her butt.
Natha quickly pulled her up and looked forward with a puzzled face.
Roddy stopped in his tracks. Before he could say anything, he heard the sound of the barrier cracking. At the same time, the Snow Monsters behind him roared in unison. They seemed to have received some kind of command and suddenly rushed toward the three of them!
That scene scared Roddy out of his wits. Could it be that the instance dungeon's entrance has been closed?
The light in the sky disappeared completely, and the scenery around them darkened. The pressure on the thousands of Snow Monsters suddenly decreased.
Natha clenched her teeth. She held the bow in one hand and pulled Akasha with the other. But this time, the barrier in front of them was not obstructed. The two suddenly disappeared into the invisible gate of the dungeon.
Roddy frowned, but at this time, he had no time to think. He glanced at the tsunami-like Snow Monsters, activated "Leap" and rushed into the dungeon. But just as he was about to enter the barrier, his heart skipped a beat. The position of the trees on both sides of the road in front of him was completely different from a few seconds ago!
His heart instinctively became alert, but his body could not stop in time. He was instantly engulfed by the turbulent flow of elements. This feeling of entering a large team dungeon had not felt for a long time, but there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart. Roddy closed his eyes and only opened them when his feet landed on solid ground again.
But then, his eyes suddenly widened and he stood rooted to the ground.
*****
At the same time, the team that had entered the "outer wall" dungeon was running on a flat road.
Although everyone was curious about why the world had changed with just one step, no one could relax and explore this question. The Snow Monsters behind them could follow them at any time. If they stopped running, they could die in the next second. Who would sit and wait for death?
The dense forest disappeared from the dungeon. The environment in front of them was similar to a plain. Suddenly, a city appeared in front of them. This small city looked like a smaller version of Elson. Whether it was the material of the wall, the style, or the design of the drawbridge at the gate, it was almost the same as Elson. It was a classic High Elf style.
Seeing this, the soldiers who had been stationed in Elson for a period of time felt relieved. Sodelor also heaved a sigh of relief. He immediately ordered, "Charge into the gate and prepare to defend the city!"
Except for the barbarians, all the soldiers who had fought in the Kingdom of Karen knew the meaning of defending the city wall. The 100-foot-long, 30-foot-high wall in front of them gave them an indescribable sense of security.
The gate of the city was wide open. As far as the eye could see, there was not a single person in sight. Sodelor led the team in front and began to issue orders in an orderly manner. As the combat hand signals were confirmed by the sergeants, the silent division of labor was completed. While Irwin and the others entered the city in a daze, the 40 elite soldiers under the command of the sergeants immediately split up. Those who went up the wall, those who pulled the drawbridge, and those who closed the gate worked in tacit understanding. There was even a special team to clean up the excess ordnance that the other soldiers had abandoned at the gate.
Such military quality made the "country bumpkins" like Irwin deeply feel the gap between them and the High Elf soldiers. Right now, they were as bewildered as Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden. Because of the language barrier, Sodelor, who had originally wanted to assign tasks to them, could only temporarily let them go. He followed the contents of the plan and sent troops to defend the city.
But just as these chaotic thoughts settled, Sodelor realized a serious problem. In the team … there seemed to be a few people missing.
