In the eyes of the natives of all material planes, the dragons were super predators at the top of the food chain.
If there were any Demon-Hunter Knights who doubted this in the past, today's battle between humans and dragons would prove to them that this theory was correct!
When a row of five Green Dragons swooped down from the sky with a sharp roar, then plowed a path of death on the ground with their terrifying dragon breath, and the densely packed arrows of the humans were unable to do anything to the Green Dragons. The despair in the hearts of the humans was immense!
Due to their good relationship with the Dragon Valley, Skandre City, which had been worry-free for thousands of years, not only did it not have city walls, it also did not have any ballistae or catapults that could threaten the dragons. Therefore, when faced with the dragons' destructive dragon breaths, the well-equipped palace guards could only flee in all directions and die in agony in the billowing green smoke.
The only thing that could harm the dragons was the high-ranking knights' Berserk Sword Skills.
Unfortunately, when the Magic-breaking Knights took advantage of the first few waves of dragons to use their Berserk Sword Skills on them, the dragons groaned in pain. The next few waves of dragons' attacks were consciously focused on them.
In the end, the Magic-breaking Knights could not withstand the concentrated attacks of the dragons.
A large area of Poisonous Wind Breath and a short but quick spit of acid eliminated the high-ranking knights who were among the palace guards.
As for the four Radiant Knights, they were locked in a fierce battle with the tier-3 green dragon Lasio on the square in front of the palace. They did not have the chance to help their companions and subordinates who were in dire straits.
Among the four Radiant Knights, only two walked the path of violence knights. The rune energy gave them a boost in strength, which was why they were able to threaten the tier-3 green dragon in close combat. As for the other two Radiant Knights, they focused more on speed and technique. Although this gave them greater agility, it also made it difficult for them to break through the green dragon's tough scales and hurt its body in close combat.
The four Radiant Knights darted around the huge body of the tier-3 green dragon Lasio, dodging the dragon's terrifying jaws, ferocious flaps of its wings, and terrifying swings of its tail. Only when their companions attracted the green dragon's attention would someone rush forward and use the most violent sword skills on the green dragon's weak points.
Regardless of whether the attack was successful or not, the attacker had to retreat from the green dragon's attack range as soon as possible. Otherwise, the green dragon Lasio's swift counterattack, be it breath, bite, claw, or tail sweep, was not something that the Radiant Knights could withstand.
The green dragons had two main ways of breathing. One was to breathe poison over a large area for a long time, which was their favorite choice when diving. But in close combat, the green dragons could also spit out acid quickly to attack their enemies.
Although the range of this acid was not wide enough, it was short and fast, and the attack power was not weak. Within a range of 20 to 30 meters, even the Radiant Knights, with their defense and magic resistance, would not dare to take on the attack head-on. Otherwise, their flesh and blood would be corroded, and their bones would be charred.
The battle had only lasted for a quarter of an hour, but the green dragon's huge body already had seven to eight inch-long wounds. Even the Radiant Knights with their defense and magic resistance did not dare to take the attack head-on. Otherwise, their flesh would be corroded and their bones would be charred.
The battle had only been going on for fifteen minutes, but seven or eight inch-long wounds had already appeared on the green dragon's huge body. His right armpit had also been badly mutilated by the Berserk Sword Technique. Patches of dark green dragon scales had been blasted away, revealing a huge bloody wound.
Although such an injury looked horrifying, it was only considered a moderate injury on a Colossal Dragon with a strong and sturdy body.
Two of the four Radiant Knights had already retreated from the battlefield.
One of them was hit in the chest by the green dragon's tail. Although he used his sword to block the attack, the violent force still broke his sternum, causing him to vomit blood. As for the other, his right arm had been completely destroyed by the acid, and he could no longer wield his sword.
Even the remaining two were covered in wounds. They were so tired that they were gasping for breath. They looked like they were barely hanging on.
It couldn't be helped. Dragons had always looked down on the world with their powerful physical strength and terrifying magic resistance. Their valiant strength allowed them to fight enemies of a higher level than them. As such, the rank 3 Berserk Green Dragon before them actually had the combat strength of an ordinary rank 4.
The four Radiant Knights were only at rank 2. They had fought a rank 4 powerhouse with their physical bodies, and this result was the result of them putting their lives on the line!
For a moment, the entire palace at the peak of Mingsu Mountain was filled with the mournful wails of the human guards and the sharp whistling of the giant dragons as they swooped down at high speed. There were people running for their lives with their hands over their heads. Everywhere was charred land left behind by the dragon's breath attack. Scattered human skeletons and pools of terrifying green liquid were even more shocking.
On the walls of the palace, the roofs of the halls, the towers, and the streets, the corpses of half-melted guards could be seen everywhere!
Hiding in a side hall, Grim and the other two saw the carnage outside. They all had different feelings. As natives of this plane, Cobalt and Huahua watched as the palace guards were slaughtered. They felt a great sense of relief, but at the same time, an indescribable sense of sorrow welled up within them. Grim, on the other hand, did not feel the slightest bit of pity or remorse for the humans of another plane.
This was actually the most common attitude in this plane!
Magi believed that only the humans of the Magus World could be seen as their own kind, as their bloodline originated from the land of origin. In the eyes of Magi, the humans of other worlds were just a bunch of humanoid creatures.
This situation was similar to the online games on Earth. Magi were a bunch of intruding players, and the natives were just NPCs that looked like humans. Hence, Magi did not feel the slightest bit of guilt when slaughtering these natives.
Originally, Grim had thought that it would be difficult for him to cross the threshold in his heart. However, as he watched the humans of another world being massacred by the dragons, he was so calm that it was as if he was watching a fantasy play. He could not help but sigh inwardly. These few years of training in the Magus World had indeed changed him a lot!
Seeing that the time was ripe, Grim did not dare to delay. He stretched out his hand and drew a dark red rune in the air. When a strange rune with flames lingering around it was completely formed, Grim pursed his lips and blew. The rune disappeared in an instant.
Grimm then took out a strange orb with a strange shape and swallowed it.
"Alright, the rune seal on the books I gave you has been removed!" Grim turned around and said indifferently, "Send my regards to Prophet Mas."
With that, he did not wait for the response of the two native Magi. He pushed open the door and strode towards the hall in the distance.
"How is it? Any response from the prophet? "Magus Cobalt could not help but ask," Don't let that Magus fool us! "
Magus Flowery placed his right hand on his forehead and closed his eyes to sense for a moment. Finally, he opened his eyes and nodded, "The spell seal has been removed. The prophet wants us to return immediately! Let's go! "
Magus Cobalt nodded silently. He watched the terrifying figure of the distant Magus, then turned around and retreated along the path they came from.
They were not here to help Grim. They were here to 'protect' him, to prevent any unforeseen events from happening before he removed the rune seal on the books. The agreement between the two sides had been completed the moment the dragons attacked.
Prophet Mas had used his wisdom to help Grim lure away most of the Radiant Knights. If he still could not kill Edward VII, it was because he was too weak. The prophet was not to be blamed.
… …
It was still the same exquisite and spacious palace.
The tightly shut palace doors were suddenly knocked open by a staggering figure.
The newcomer was wearing the dazzling armor of a Radiant Knight. It was covered in the terrifying corrosive marks of the Green Dragon Acid. The visor had obviously been hit by an external force as well. It was warped and deformed, and the exposed skin was covered in a large pool of blood. It was difficult to tell who it was.
The two Radiant Knights guarding the palace were shocked. They pulled out their rune swords at the same time. When they saw the newcomer's attire, they breathed a sigh of relief.
They rushed forward and were just about to support their companion when they heard the man's hoarse voice shouting, "Hurry up and save him … Hurry up …"
Before he could finish, the newcomer had already fallen to the ground. His head drooped. He had clearly fainted.
"The battle ahead must be dangerous. Otherwise, the lord would not have sent someone back to ask for help. I'll go take a look. You stay here and continue protecting His Majesty! " The slightly older Radiant Knight made a prompt decision. After giving a few simple instructions, he got up and hurried out of the palace with a few other Radiant Knights, heading straight for the place where the battle was the fiercest.
The Radiant Knight who stayed behind felt like a hundred claws were scratching at his heart, but he could only forcefully suppress it. His attention was immediately drawn to his companion on the ground.
As high-ranking knights, although their mental strength was not as strong and sharp as that of spellcasters, it was still far beyond that of ordinary people. Any companion's aura could be directly distinguished with just a slight touch. However, it was extremely strange today. He could clearly sense a familiar aura from the "injured" lying in front of him, but he could not determine the identity of the newcomer.
Could it be that the giant dragon had cast some strange spell on him?
He lifted his companion's body in doubt and pulled it over. Just as he was about to take off the distorted helmet of the injured, he suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, as if a hot iron bar had been stabbed directly into it.
He looked down in surprise and found that the injured's right hand was red like fire. It was fiercely stabbing into his abdomen, as if it was trying to push deeper.
In the next moment, a huge wave of flames rose into the sky.
