The strength of the Dragon Race was not to be underestimated!
Especially when the arrogant Giant Dragons learned to fight guerrilla warfare, the casualties of the Sorcerer Expeditionary Army began to rise.
Knowing that ordinary Draconians and natives couldn't threaten the fully-armed Magic Machine Legion, the Tier 1 Little Dragons set aside their pride and dignity and treated themselves as a guerrilla. They began to harass the Magic Machine Legion's lookouts around the perimeter.
They came and went in groups of three to five, never attempting to get close to the Magic Machine Corps. Instead, they focused on the Eyeball Aircrafts on the periphery. They used the aborigines to lure the Eyeball Aircrafts out. Then, they gathered together and used their sharp claws and scorching dragon breath to take down the Eyeball Aircrafts one by one.
Once the Magic Machine Corps sent a convoy to chase them away, they would not continue to fight and would scatter. Relying on their high flying speed, they would not fight with the Goblin convoy at all.
If any Goblin commander was too arrogant and dared to chase them with a Goblin Airship. Hehe, as soon as they left the range of the Magic Machine Corps' support, these scattered Dragons would even split up and attack their enemies together, using the strength of the Dragon Race to teach their enemies a lesson.
Even with a Sorcerer in charge, a normal Goblin Airship would not be able to withstand the trampling of two to three Tier 1 Dragons!
Moreover, there were often Tier 2 Giant Dragons hidden among these Tier 1 Dragons.
After losing two Goblin Airships and three Family Sorcerers, the higher-ups of the Crimson Family who were in charge of the patrol airships were forced to order the Sorcerers to not chase after the 'fleeing' Giant Dragons.
After tasting some benefits, seeing that the Sorcerers were no longer fooled, the Giant Dragons became bolder.
Some of the Tier 2 Dragons also gathered together and attacked the Magic Machinery Division in droves.
They did not barge into the Magic Machine Corps' convoy. Instead, they flew around the periphery of the convoy. As long as the convoy dared to move and open up a gap, the Giant Dragons dared to come and plowed through the convoy with their scorching dragon breath. Every few days, the Giant Dragons would play a chase with the Goblin Airships in the sky.
Although the specific effect of the attack was not obvious, it effectively slowed down the Magic Machine Corps' progress.
Most of the Goblin Chariots could only circle around the Magical Golem Dragon and advance at a relatively slow speed. If it were not for the fact that the Sorcerer Expeditionary Army had a high degree of Magic Mechanization and did not need external energy supplies, they might have been directly dragged down by the harassment of the Dragons.
The Crimson Family's expedition this time was a game of Dragon hunting. Although the Crimson Family's target was the Tier 4 Dragon, every Crimson Sorcerer knew that it was impossible to kill the Dragon. At least, the Crimson Family did not have such power at the moment.
Therefore, the purpose of alerting the enemy was to gather these giant dragons together so that it would be easier to capture all of them in one fell swoop.
Therefore, the Sorcerer Expeditionary Force was not in a hurry to advance. Instead, they maintained a slow movement speed, teasing the dragons bit by bit. As more and more Dragon Lords were attracted, the number of Dragons gathered at the periphery of the Magic Mechanical Legion was as high as a hundred.
The group had the guts!
When there were only a few dragons, they might not have dared to barge into the Magic Machine Legion, but when hundreds of dragons gathered, their confidence inevitably swelled again.
The Metal Dragon indeed had the power of a Tier 4 Dragon, but it moved slowly and could not fly. As long as they did not get too close to it, the thick-skinned Dragon that could fly and fight well would not fear a group of human Sorcerers who only dared to hide in steel.
Therefore, in a plain area called the Northern Wilderness, a large group of Dragons swarmed over and blocked the path of the Magic Mechanical Legion.
An earth-shattering war was about to break out!
The Sorcerer Expeditionary Force passed through the territories of the Dragon Lords without a care in the world, destroying seven dragon lairs in a row. Such an outrageous act naturally drew the ire of the Dragon Lords.
Even the Dragon Lords within a radius of 5,000 kilometers rushed out of their nests after hearing the news, traveling day and night to get here, let alone the unlucky Giant Dragons who had suffered the most. Moreover, they wouldn't come alone. Every Dragon Lord would more or less bring along a group of their own Draconians.
Therefore, after gathering them together, they managed to form an army of more than six thousand Dragonoid soldiers!
Of course, apart from the Dragonoid army that acted as the main force, there were also thirty thousand Dragon Worshippers and up to two hundred and sixty thousand native servants.
With such a large army, the Dragon Lords became even more confident. The dragons that wandered around the periphery of the Magic Mechanical Legion became more active and aggressive.
At this point, the Magic Mechanical Legion did not advance any further. Instead, they chose a relatively open area to set up a line of defense. With the Magical Golem Dragon at the center, Goblin Chariots and Goblin Airships formed an indestructible steel wall.
On the other hand, the Mothership hovered above the Magical Golem Dragon, not only shielding it from attacks from above, but also acting as the commander of the battle!
To be honest, before the war started, the Sorcerers were clearly the attackers, while the Dragon Lords were the passive defenders. However, once there was a clear change in the strength of both sides, the situation on the battlefield instantly flipped.
Unknowingly, the Dragon Lords became the attackers, while the Sorcerers who came from afar became the defenders. Both sides fought back and forth in the Northern Wilderness, starting a battle of life and death.
After a few rounds of probing and seesawing, the Dragons could no longer hold back their flames of vengeance and finally launched an all-out attack.
On this morning, after a hurried breakfast, the Dragonoids, Dragon Worshippers, and native tribes rushed out from their hiding places and began to gather on the outskirts of the Northern Wilderness on a large scale.
Hundreds of giant dragons also rushed into the sky and circled around there, roaring non-stop.
Under the urging and coercion of the hundreds of Dragon Lords, the native tribes gathered together and formed a black wave of people. From all directions, they madly pounced towards the rows of towering steel lines of defense in the depths of the wilderness.
Jungle trolls, boar-men, ogres, rat-men, wild goblins, swamp demons, mountain giants, hill dwarfs, gnolls, kobolds, rhinoceroses, giant beemen … All kinds of strange races that were barely seen in the outside world roared and roared as they charged at the well-prepared Magical Machine Legion.
Some rode on Forest Wolves as if they were flying, some flapped their meaty wings and flew close to the ground, some swayed their sturdy bodies and roared as they advanced, some formed groups and ran …
In an instant, the entire Northern Wilderness became a stage for the native tribes to showcase. It was an eye-opening and refreshing sight!
Unfortunately, this was a war!
Moreover, it was the cruelest and bloodiest Planar War!
The magic cannons that had long been set up in the siege mode began their performance when they were about a kilometer away from the Magical Golem Legion. Ninety-seven Goblin Chariots gathered around the Magical Golem Dragons, forming a two-kilometer metal defensive line.
When the enemies stepped into the attack range of the Goblin Chariots, the magic cannons erected on top of the chariots quickly charged. Then, with a violent tremble, black and red energy fireballs rose into the sky, drawing beautiful arcs in the air, dragging long tails of black smoke behind them as they smashed towards the black wave of charging valiantly.
In the sky, the Goblin Airships that were hovering in the air suddenly burst into flames. Goblin Fire Arrows with orange tails were mixed in the center of the energy fireballs, whistling as they pounced towards the crowd.
The battle began with a pincer attack from the energy fireballs and Goblin Fire Arrows!
To be honest, the natives of the Lance Plane had never seen such a spectacular and beautiful scene before. Many who were charging forward couldn't help but slow down, holding their breaths as they stared at the magnificent scene.
They watched as the beautiful fireballs and the whistling iron lumps approached them from afar and finally landed among them.
In the next second, the entire world seemed to have collapsed. Undulating, continuous booms filled their ears, and the sight of the exploding red light and the dismembered bodies of their companions filled their eyes.
Even if the natives at the center of the explosions didn't die from the extreme heat and violent shockwaves of the explosions, they would still be devoured by the waves of flames. Most of their bodies were vaporized by the overlapping and colliding waves of elemental energy. Occasionally, there were some broken limbs that escaped the fiercest part of the elemental explosion, but they would still be burnt into charcoal by the waves of flames as they danced in the air.
Only the lucky ones who were at the edge of the explosion had a chance of keeping their bodies intact.
However, as the magical flames ignited everything that could be burned, the entire front line turned into a terrifying, enormous field of fire, and there was no way out for them.
While the surviving natives were still rejoicing and hesitating, rows of tall metal magic machines stepped on the flames and pushed away the thick smoke, appearing in their sight in neat formations. They raised their arms horizontally, revealing black holes at the ends of their metal arms that were as thick as iron pillars.
As he strode forward, he shot out beams of nearly transparent energy rays.
Compared to the magical rays of various effects, the transparent energy rays were sharper and more penetrative.
There was no elemental restriction, no magic immunity, and the pure energy rays were even more terrifying!
Be it the tough skin of the trolls and ogres, the mortar armor of the boars, or the thick mane of the rhinos, none of them could stop the energy rays.
Wherever the energy ray passed, a bloody hole would be pierced through the flesh. It was simply difficult to block or evade.
For a moment, before the surviving natives could understand what was going on, they were riddled with holes by the invisible attacks, falling to the ground while covered in blood.
