This was clearly an adult dragon.
Its body was larger than Visagi or Merinsera's. When it spread its wings, it felt as if it could cover the sky. However, there was no flesh membrane on its wings, only empty bones. However, as the dragon climbed out of the broken pool, its pale wings gradually flashed with light, and a thin membrane weaved by magic slowly appeared on the pair of giant wings.
The scales on its body had already been completely peeled off, but its body was not left with only a skeleton. Where there should have been dragon scales, there were pieces of polished bone armor, and the tendons at the joints were firmly protected. In terms of defense, it seemed to be a level higher than dragon scales. Rather than saying that this was an undead dragon summoned by Augustine, it was more like a "bone puppet dragon"!
After this dragon appeared in Oldmancius, it did not spread its wings and roar. Its glowing white eye sockets only swept around before it crawled toward Augustine's laboratory.
A few minutes later, it suddenly spread its wings and soared into the sky.
Its entire body was made of bone, making it at least half the weight of an ordinary dragon. Even without the help of magic power, its huge wings allowed its huge body to move as fast as lightning!
Because of the low rain clouds, its figure flashed across the sky, but the intense magic power fluctuations and the movements in the palace could not be hidden from the powerful old fellows of the Noble Parliament. However, when they looked up and used their magic power to detect the figure of the dragon, their expressions changed drastically, and they suddenly stopped in their tracks.
"Damn it … He actually succeeded in refining a dragon?!"
The old fellows of Tasman knew that Augustine had fought with a dragon before, but no one knew whether the dragon was dead or had escaped. However, now that they saw this "bone puppet dragon", the answer was obvious.
They, who had thought of themselves as powerful, felt the fear in their hearts.
Augustine's prowess had always refreshed their understanding of the world over and over again.
This display of power immediately extinguished the thoughts of those who originally wanted to go against Augustine. However, they were more curious about Augustine's current behavior. It seemed like he was going to personally deal with the "rebel army".
But … was there a need for that?
They didn't think that Augustine was a reckless person, but they had no idea what his true intentions were.
These elders did not even bother to detect if there was anyone on the dragon's back, because in their opinion, this dragon could basically sweep away all obstacles.
However, Augustine obviously didn't think so.
The flying speed of the giant dragon was astonishing. Roddy's Kelda Duck was like a snail compared to it. It took the dragon less than ten minutes to cover the distance of a few hundred miles. When it locked on to the hidden Teflin village below, the dragon suddenly began to dive.
"Hu!"
When the dragon landed, the air currents from the flapping of its wings even lifted the roofs of several nearby houses. On the back of the dragon, Augustine, clad in bone armor, stood proudly and jumped down.
At this moment, his face looked even younger than before, almost as if he was less than 30 years old. His handsome face was not pale at all, almost no different from a normal person.
On his waist was a short sword, and on his armor were seven to eight types of high-quality Magic crystal. On his short white cloak, there were complicated magic patterns drawn on it, and on both of his hands, there were eight exaggerated rings.
His fully armed appearance looked extremely gorgeous. When he stepped in front of the village, the panicked Teflin in the village were running away.
Augustine stepped forward, and the giant dragon's footsteps caused a tremor in the village, and screams were heard. When Roddy's figure finally appeared in his field of vision, Augustine raised his hand and threw a series of spells at him.
The "Bone Prison" spell instantly froze Roddy on the spot, followed by more than a hundred "Bone Spears" from all directions. "Aging Curse," "Weakening Curse," "Corrosive Swamp," and "Soul Lock" all hit Roddy's body.
He also crossed the space of more than 20 meters, and in a second, the short sword in front of him cut the "coffin" made of white bones into pieces!
This was also Augustine's fighting style. When facing an enemy, he would not waste time talking nonsense. Even if the enemy's strength was overwhelming, he would still go all out.
The Teflin on the side saw this scene, and they were hesitating whether to help. Augustine just glanced at the Teflin behind him, and the giant dragon behind him breathed a breath of ice, freezing a large area of Teflin into ice cubes.
Augustine looked at the scene in front of him. Although he already expected this, the scene around him made him feel indescribably uncomfortable.
While he was thinking, Elder Luther's transformed figure rushed out from the gap between the ice breath. He bravely shattered the ice on his body, and directly rushed towards Augustine.
Augustine did not even need to cast a spell, and the white bones on the ground instantly pierced Luther's body like daggers.
"Can't even withstand a single blow."
Just when he thought that the village was completely defenseless, a violent magic wave suddenly came from behind him. Augustine raised his arm to block, but was instantly swallowed by a bright light.
"Boom!"
The moment the "Flame Burst" exploded, the sand in a radius of a hundred square meters was almost directly melted into glass by the high temperature. At the same time, the undead bone dragon that was about to turn around to look was suddenly hit by a giant shadow that seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and its entire body was sent flying.
The scenery around them suddenly shattered and disappeared. The running Teflin, the remains of Roddy, and Luther's remains were all gone, leaving only a complete mess of destruction in the village.
"How dare you blaspheme the Dragons!"
Iskar's enraged roar reverberated throughout the forest. He was currently in his dragon form, and his body was almost identical to that of a bone dragon. His red scales seemed to be ablaze with flames as he roared angrily at Augustine's actions.
However, Augustine, who seemed to have been hit, stood up unscathed. He reached out to straighten his slightly messy hair, and when the short sword in his hand emitted a blue and white light, the dancing flames in the surroundings suddenly extinguished.
"So … it's the Dragons."
There was not much surprise on his face. Instead, he revealed a sinister smile. "It seems that I will have to add another dragon puppet."
"Is that so?"
Kardashian descended from the sky with a face full of anger. She, who was also in her Dragons form, had already prepared a series of spells. The "Cold Winter's Finger" that covered the area like a blizzard rained down on Augustine, and the "Slowing Aura" and "Frost Shackles" were cast almost at the same time.
Augustine sneered and activated the "Advanced Mirror Spell" on his ring to block most of the damage. He also charged forward against the sky full of ice cones, and the short sword instantly grew by four to five times as he charged towards Kardashian's neck like an arrow!
"Two dragons are not enough to deal with me!"
The short sword slashed across, and everything was cut in half as if it was splitting the sky and the earth. Regardless of whether it was the giant dragon or the hundreds of giant trees and houses behind it, they were all cut in half by the light of the sword.
Whoosh …
However, Kardashian did not bleed and fell to the ground. Instead, she turned into a shattered illusion.
It was another illusion!
The next moment, a blurry shadow suddenly appeared in the air behind Augustine, who had not yet landed on the ground. A white dragon claw violently and violently slapped the White Bone Emperor's body, directly smashing him into the ground!
"Bang!"
Augustine took the hit solidly. When he forcibly used the bone shield to block the crystal dragon's next attack and hurriedly rolled away, he finally showed a trace of unprecedented embarrassment …
The three giant dragons finally made him feel that it was difficult to deal with.
However, this Undead Emperor did not show an expression of panic. Instead, he narrowed his eyes.
"Then I'll play with you for a while …"
*****
While Augustine was fighting with the three giant dragons, another storm was brewing in the distant Kingdom of Karen.
Sauron, who broke into Bergen's territory, did not let the army capture the city where Count Milno was. However, they did not retreat. Instead, after reorganizing for two days, they continued to send out the Wolf Riders to the southeast to carry out a tentative attack.
Sauron's goal was not to plunder, but to destroy the human's morale as much as possible before retreating so that they would not dare to pursue. This was to ensure that the slower logistics troops could safely retreat.
However, this time, he realized that he had miscalculated.
The first to realize was the "Viper Cross" Sect, who understood that they now had to work hard to maintain their position.
Ever since the defeat in the battle a year ago, the military strength and cohesion of the "Viper Cross" had been greatly affected. However, with the support of the royal family and Count Milno, they could now be said to be strong and powerful. Previously, when Houdini visited Charles II, the "Rose Cross" Knights were displayed the most on the surface. But in the end, it was just for show. The eastern part of the kingdom was almost entirely under the control of the Viper Cross. So when the Orc Army destroyed more than ten cities, the Bishops of the Viper Cross immediately brought over two thousand Guardian Knights and four thousand five hundred auxiliary soldiers to block the Orc Army's path and forcefully obstruct them.
At this time, they could not afford to be half-hearted, because if the Orcs broke through the defense line, there would be a straight road to the Imperial City.
Therefore, these well-armed knights finally caused trouble for the unstoppable Wolf Riders. With the protection of fully armed metal armor, and a large number of priests casting divine spells and treating the wounded, the Orcs' unstoppable frontal assault finally met a line that they could not penetrate.
After three frontal assaults without success, the Orcs' original advantage became smaller and smaller, while the Viper Cross Knights became braver and more resilient.
Sauron saw this situation and decisively chose to withdraw his troops and immediately prepared to retreat to the north. He had already decided to immediately move towards the eastern part of the kingdom, pass through the continuous mountains, and advance towards the countries further east. Therefore, the less unnecessary casualties, the better.
At this time, the "Viper Cross" Knights originally wanted to pursue the Orcs, but because of their stamina and casualties, in the end, they could only slowly follow behind. This was because the Orcs' assault was too powerful. If not for the four bishops personally presiding over the frontline treatment and blessing, it was estimated that the death toll would have exceeded eight hundred.
It was also thanks to their strong faith and divine spells that they did not collapse and flee like the noble army.
And the two thousand Wolf Riders that Sauron had gathered had more than two hundred casualties after three assaults, and nearly five hundred had lost their combat strength. At this time, their morale was low. Fortunately, the accumulated self-confidence from their previous consecutive victories allowed them to maintain basic military discipline. Sauron understood that he could not win every battle, so he did not have any more delusions and immediately ordered to return.
But the troops had not gone far when suddenly, a large army suddenly emerged from the horizon, causing Sauron's expression to turn serious.
The army that Count Moore had forcefully organized after receiving orders from Charles II had finally blocked Sauron's path at this suitable time.
He had gathered seventy-five noble knights and thirty-eight barons, bringing a total of more than three thousand cavalry, followed by three thousand infantry and five thousand auxiliary troops.
Although at a glance, they were basically farmers with poor equipment, but they appeared majestically in front of the Wolf Riders. It was obvious that they were prepared to win with numbers — as long as you charge, I will let you sink into the mud, and you will not be able to return!
This army came suddenly, and did not give Sauron any chance to change his tactics. Therefore, the only path left for Sauron was to "break through".
