It was a wide river, and there were some strange things floating in the slow-moving water. They were … boats made of bones.
"Woah woah woah woah!" Some short, dark-skinned creatures swam around the boats. They piled the fish they caught in the water onto the boats, and then pushed them upstream …
If one looked up with the boats made of bones, they would see a huge canyon. The river flowed freely in the canyon, and on the rock walls on both sides of the canyon, stood these short creatures' … cities.
Cities made of bones.
All kinds of bone huts were built on the steep rock walls, and there were also bone bridges made of bones between the huts as passageways. In the canyon, there was also a huge bone bridge that connected the rock walls on both sides. In the river below, there were 'fishing nets' made of bones that were used to trap fish. Countless pygmies walked back and forth in the houses made of bones. Everything here was their masterpiece.
"Caw …" A white figure appeared on the cliff.
It lowered its head and looked at the houses made of bones below, and there was a hint of admiration in its eyes.
This white creature was wearing a strange armor that shone brightly under the sunlight. Although it was a type of White Skeleton Dragon, it seemed a little different.
However, compared to the armor it was wearing, it seemed to be more impressed with the houses made of bones built by the pygmies. These bones were not glued together with anything, and they were simply inserted one by one. This was a rather complicated technique that was only passed down from generation to generation among the pygmies.
This White Skeleton Dragon seemed to be fascinated by the pygmies below it. Until it noticed a voice.
"It's a White Skeleton Dragon!" There were twelve of them … No. It was thirteen of them. Almost all of them were glaring at this White Skeleton Dragon, and the weapons in their hands were already raised high.
"Kill it!"
With a loud shout, the group of White Skeleton Dragons immediately rushed up. The White Skeleton Dragon was about to retreat, but the first White Skeleton Dragon had already rushed in front of it, and the stone axe raised high above its head chopped down on the armor in front of its chest.
"Caw!" The White Skeleton Dragon fell to the ground because of the heavy blow from the White Skeleton Dragon, although its chest armor was still intact. However, it would be difficult for it to stand up again.
At this time, all the White Skeleton Dragons surrounded it, and the White Skeleton Dragon's screams echoed in the air above the canyon …
"Huh?" About three kilometers away from the location of the scream, another Skeleton Dragon in the same suit heard the sound and immediately ran in that direction.
Following behind it were dozens of White Skeleton Dragons.
…
At the same time, on the other side, the sounds of battle were constantly reverberating …
This was a plain with brown grass. Five huge pyramids more than fifty meters high stood in the center of the plain, surrounded by standing scorpions. They held spears in their hands and looked around nervously. The green silhouettes of the Emerald Dragons could be seen everywhere on the plains.
During this period of time, the Emerald Dragon army led by Susumi had occupied pyramid after pyramid without any losses, because there were too few standing scorpions in the pyramids. Finally, after clearing the surrounding pyramids, Susumi began to organize her troops to attack a target that seemed more difficult to deal with — the grassland with five pyramids.
The grassland was covered with rotten tree trunks, the work of the standing scorpions. While they were building the pyramids, they would also push down the nearby trees, but they did not transport or use the wood. Instead, they left the wood where it was. Soon, all kinds of low plants, grasses, and fungi would grow in this place.
At present, Lin did not know why the standing scorpions did this. Perhaps it was just to create an open area, and this open area also provided an excellent place for the Emerald Dragons.
The army led by Susumi had surrounded the five pyramids. Perhaps because of the five pyramids, the grassland looked very large, and could even accommodate tens of thousands of troops!
The standing scorpions were also different from before. They did not hide in the pyramids as before, but densely surrounded the pyramids, ready to protect these pyramids.
However, there were more than twenty thousand Emerald Dragons around them, as well as the SemiDragon flying in the sky. With only a few thousand Scorpions, their chances of winning weren't very high. Fear lingered in their minds … but they had nowhere to run.
In this battle, Susumi also came to the battlefield as a commander. She rode on the largest viper dragon and looked down at all the creatures on the battlefield. She held a huge horn in her hand. Susumi put the horn in her mouth and blew hard …
"Buzz!" A deep sound echoed in the world. The emerald dragons immediately scattered. Among them, a huge bow was pushed to the front of the group.
Despite having a huge advantage in numbers, Susumi was still unwilling to fight directly. Instead, she used the old method — shooting with the huge bows.
At this time, if the standing scorpions attacked them, they would have to spread out. This would further reduce their already small number, and they would be in an even more disadvantageous position.
However, Rin believed that the standing scorpions did not purposely defend the pyramids that Susumi attacked before. It felt like they were giving the pyramids to Susumi. However, the five pyramids here … were obviously very important to them.
Therefore, the standing scorpions did not wait idly this time. As the Emerald Dragons prepared their bows, there was a commotion among the standing scorpions. Some strange creatures walked to the front of the standing scorpions …
Rin's spies among the Emerald Dragons could see the strange creatures among the standing scorpions in the distance.
These creatures looked like very stout standing scorpions. They were about 50% larger than ordinary standing scorpions. Moreover, they were not standing. They were crawling on their stomachs. There was a sharp horn on their head.
Sure enough, as Rin knew, the standing scorpions had the ability to change their form. Perhaps this was why they allowed Susumi to occupy the outer pyramids …
They needed time to change their form.
With the appearance of the giant standing scorpions, the standing scorpions' army changed. They were all looking towards the north, where Rin's army was.
"What's that?" Some of the Emerald Dragons noticed the change in the standing scorpions. They said to Black Pepper, "Commander, something strange has appeared among them."
"…" As the commander, Black Pepper did not say anything.
Recently, the influence of the black pepper was no longer limited to its dreams. Its mental state had also begun to change. It was estimated that after a while, it would have more serious problems.
"What's wrong? Commander! " The Emerald Dragon panicked. Without orders, they could not attack. However, Black Pepper still did not respond.
"Coo …" At the same time, the giant standing scorpions had lined up in a row and were ready for battle.
The Emerald Dragon looked at the standing scorpions and cried out in panic, "Commander! The enemy has … "
Before the Emerald Dragon could finish, the standing scorpions suddenly roared in unison. All the standing scorpions began to move. They did not scatter. Instead, they charged towards the north, where Black Pepper and Rin were!
The giant standing scorpions led the vanguard. Their footsteps caused the grassland to tremble. The giant standing scorpions behind them shouted in unison. It was as if they were going to use this place as an exit to tear through the Emerald Dragons' encirclement!
Black Pepper did not react to such a terrifying army charging towards them. The Emerald Dragons did not care about orders. They raised their spears in panic and lined up in a formation to stop the scorpions' attack.
At this time, the rumbling footsteps were approaching. The giant standing scorpions had reached the front of the Emerald Dragons …
Boom! With a loud bang, the moment the two armies collided, countless green figures were sent flying. The Emerald Dragon's spears were unable to stop Dali Scorpion's charge. The defensive line in front of the army collapsed at this moment. Dali Scorpion led the army behind him and rampaged through the Emerald Dragon. There was almost nothing that could stop them. The huge bows that had been set up before were trampled into pieces.
However, the regular army of Emerald Dragons did not collapse so easily. They held their spears and blocked the charging scorpions with all their might.
"What's going on over there?!" Susumi, who was in the sky, noticed that the Emerald Dragons in the north had been pushed away without even firing a single arrow. She immediately blew her horn. The Emerald Dragons in the other directions began to move. They surrounded the standing scorpions that were charging towards the north.
"Stop them! Don't let them get out! "
Five vipers used their spears to stop a giant standing scorpion. The sturdy shell on its head prevented the vipers' spears from piercing through. At the same time, its powerful strength as an arthropod creature allowed it to resist opponents several times its size, or even surpass them!
All of a sudden, the giant scorpion exerted his strength, and the spears of the viper dragons broke in the middle with a cracking noise. The moment the spears broke, several giant scorpions jumped out from behind the giant scorpion and pierced the chests of the viper dragons.
The other armies were surrounding them. The standing scorpions knew this, so they fought with all their might, trying to tear open a path of escape.
"Vipers, go and support them!"
Under Susumi's command, the large creatures in the sky began to change their flight paths. They retracted their wings and swooped down at high speed, crashing into the group of standing scorpions.
Seeing the situation behind them, the giant standing scorpions at the front became even more nervous. One of the giant standing scorpions rammed into a large number of Emerald Dragons. It was about to break out of the encirclement!
Whoosh!
A spear suddenly pierced the back of the scorpion's neck, where its head and neck connected. Floating Astronomy.
