That night, the Kingdom of Knights was in an uproar.
The real battle report from the frontline finally came back. More than half of the 6,000 Demon Hunter Knights were annihilated in the Greenland Forest, and the rest were scattered into the wilderness. It would be difficult to gather them back in a short time.
The detestable Count Winlier of Blue Hill City who caused the information cut off actually raised his army and openly defected to those evil wizards who came from another plane.
As for the higher-ups of the Knights who fought, only five Radiant Knights escaped back to Heduran City with a hundred subordinates. That was how they managed to send back the real battle report.
The giant dragons betrayed them on the spot!
Sir Willis, a Level 4 Holy Knight, left with the giant dragons!
Of the three Dragon Knights, one died in battle, and the other two were lost in the wizard camp!
The terrifying wizard tower stood tall in the depths of the Greenland Forest and could no longer be shaken!
…
The bad news came like snowflakes, and the old king finally could not hold it in anymore. He vomited blood again.
However, just as the giant dragons betrayed the kingdom and the kingdom was in a precarious situation, even the most important Forging Camp of the Knights was suddenly attacked. This made all the Demon Hunter Knights even angrier and more violent!
The Radiant Knights, who were trapped in the palace, led the furious knights to attack everywhere. They began to search for suspicious people in Skandre City.
As a result, Skandre City instantly turned into a terrifying whirlpool of storms, engulfing everyone who was caught in it in a wild and destructive manner, mincing them into pieces!
It was a night of chaos.
When it was almost dawn, Skandre City finally regained some peace.
However, at this moment, the prison of the Royal Capital was already overcrowded, and wails could be heard everywhere.
However, before the restless people could calm down, a series of loud and violent dragon roars came from the distant sky.
A large number of giant dragons were attacking!
After experiencing the dragon attack that lasted for 17 days, the Royal Capital was already used to such terrifying dragon roars.
However, today was obviously different.
Not only did the giant dragons come early and quickly, but they also circled above the palace as soon as they appeared. They came with ill intentions!
For a moment, the sky above the palace at the top of Mingsu Mountain was covered by these ferocious giant dragons.
There were 23 adult green dragons. Among them, there were 5 Level 3 green dragons, 7 Level 2 green dragons, and the rest were all Level 1 young dragons.
After circling around in the sky, the Green Dragon in the lead let out a furious roar. Amidst the earth-shattering roar, the weathered rocks on the nearby mountains began to peel off, tumbling down to the foot of the mountain.
After venting the frustration in its chest, the green dragon in the lead finally flapped its wings and hovered above the palace, roaring loudly.
"Edward VII, get your ass out here! Hand over the dragon killer immediately, or we will raze your palace to the ground today! "
"Hurry up and come out …"
"Hand over the murderer …"
…
The long and violent dragon roars were deafening, causing the entire palace to tremble and buzz.
Countless palace guards were hidden on the towers and walls of the palace, ready to attack, but no one dared to take the initiative to attack.
For a long time, the majestic and mighty giant dragon was their backer, a powerful partner who lived in peace with them. Now that they had turned against each other, everyone had mixed feelings that were hard to describe.
Even though the capital had been ravaged by the giant dragons, and even though the human cities had been tormented by the giant dragons, they had been protected by the giant dragons for a long time. The people were still resentful, but deep in their hearts, they hoped that the giant dragons would repent and form a friendship with the kingdom again!
Under the guidance of this mentality, the people of the capital had complicated feelings towards the giant dragons. There were those who hated them, and those who hoped for them, but most of them were confused …
A kind of confusion towards the giant dragons, towards humans, and towards the future!
In a grand and magnificent hall in the palace, eight Radiant Knights were anxiously crowding around a soft couch, looking at a group of medical officers who were doing their best to save His Majesty, who had a golden complexion. However, their king was already on the verge of death, and was in the last moments of his life. It was obvious that he would not wake up again.
"What should we do? The giant dragons have already arrived. Without His Majesty, how can we negotiate with the giant dragons? "
"Yes, the giant dragons did not come with good intentions this time. I'm afraid a war will break out! And now, His Majesty … "
The Radiant Knights frowned as they discussed. It was obvious that they could not make up their minds about the matter at hand.
Finally, the most senior of the Radiant Knights took off his helmet, revealing his pale white hair and a resolute face. He said, "In this time of crisis, we have been supported by the Edward Family. We cannot abandon them and abandon them."
The Radiant Knights' expressions changed, and they replied in unison, "We are willing to do our best with you, and swear to protect the safety of the kingdom!"
"Now, I order Augustus and Andrew to guard this place. Do not let His Majesty be slaughtered by the giant dragons!"
"Yes!" "Yes!"
"Sarah, Cleary, find the princes immediately and bring them away from the palace. If we get through today safely, return immediately. If … If war breaks out, you don't have to worry about this place. Bring them east, the further the better! "
The two who were named were both female Radiant Knights. Their expressions were sorrowful, and they choked with sobs as they nodded.
"The rest of you, follow me to see what these giant dragons are up to."
"We are willing to advance and retreat with you, my lord!"
Amidst the faint sounds of sobbing, the four Radiant Knights tidied up their equipment and strode out of the palace with a solemn and stirring spirit.
However, just as everyone's attention was attracted by the tense confrontation in front of the palace, a tall Radiant Knight in full armor was hurrying towards the palace hall with two other Magic-breaking Knights. Taking advantage of this dangerous situation, a large number of Demon Hunter Knights began to station themselves in various parts of the palace. The palace guards were also in a state of panic.
At this time, the powerful Radiant Knights were the cornerstone of the stability of the entire kingdom. Who would dare to check the identity and actions of a Radiant Knight?
Thus, Grimm brought Cobalt and Huahua and successfully entered the vicinity of the palace hall. They secretly hid in a side hall.
The old Radiant Knight who strode out from the front hall had undoubtedly attracted the attention of the dragons.
Seeing the four Radiant Knights walk out, the especially large green dragon in the lead folded its wings and landed on the wide platform.
"Human, ask your king to come out. He must hand over the Covenant Gem and the dragon murderer today, or we will raze this place to the ground! "The green dragon in the lead roared loudly.
"Respected dragon emissary, I don't know what made you dragons so angry. Our Knight Kingdom has been the loyal partner of the Great Dragon for thousands of years. But now, you are the ones who have attacked our capital and our city. And today, you have come to ask for the Covenant Gem and the murderer! Is this what friends should be doing? "
"Insignificant human worm, do not show off your tongue. The great green dragon Rasio will not listen to your nonsense. Call your king out, or I will barge in! "The green dragon in the lead was violent and unreasonable. It was obvious that he was not going to let this matter rest.
Grimm, who was hiding in a side hall far away, heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the level 3 green dragon in the lead was barbaric and overbearing. Otherwise, he would have taken the risk to start a war if there were signs of peace talks. At this critical moment, he only needed to run to a group of demon hunters who did not know the truth and order an attack, and it would immediately start a bloody war.
But fortunately, the green dragons were more unscrupulous than he had imagined. It would be strange if the knights did not retaliate with such a forceful approach!
As expected, just as the old Radiant Knight pulled out his glowing rune sword to block the green dragon's path, one of the demon-hunting knights shot out a rune arrow in panic, or a young green dragon spat out a green dragon's breath. A terrifying battle that engulfed the entire battlefield erupted in an instant!
Under the horrified gaze of countless palace guards, streaks of terrifying wind poison and acidic dragon breath rained down like a storm. All the human warriors who were caught in it died before they could even escape.
The warriors who were enveloped by the wind poison fell to the ground, their faces black as they were poisoned to death. And the warriors who were drenched by the acid poison had their flesh and blood corroded into a sticky green liquid like a roasted candle, leaving only charred bones scattered on the ground.
On the ground, arrows and crossbow bolts were fired at the same time. Streaks of flame arrows and frost arrows pierced through the sky and shot into the group of dragons.
With crisp clanging sounds, countless arrows were swept down from the sky by the dragons' wings or tails, but there were still a few young dragons who were shot into the gaps between their scales.
For a moment, cries of pain could be heard from the group of dragons.
A few adult green dragons immediately swooped down, using their huge bodies to cover the many young green dragons. Under the command of the adult dragons, the group of dragons quickly rose higher, gradually leaving the range of the crossbow bolts.
This did not mean that the dragons were retreating, but it was a sign that the dragons were about to attack.
With a drawn-out dragon roar, two adult dragons in front, three young dragons at the back, and five huge green dragons flapped their wide wings and began to swoop down from the sky at high speed towards the palace below.
The five green dragons opened their mouths in anger, and a large ball of terrifying acid began to quickly gather in their throats.
The next moment, five thick streams of acid poison instantly plowed a path of death among the people on the ground. And most of the crossbow bolts on the ground were blocked by the dragon's scales. Even if the nails occasionally pierced into the flesh, the damage was not enough to interrupt the dragons' frenzied breath.
