Chapter 32 North Wind Eagle Guard (Part 3)
"Cry——"
The giant eagles screamed, lined up in formation, and swooped down after Chimera.
But just as they were about to catch up with Chimera from behind, a red figure appeared in the cave.
The Chimera, who was running away, saw that figure and was immediately pardoned. He shouted loudly in the few dragon languages he knew:
"Master, help!"
Cassius looked at the row of giant eagles behind Chimera with doubts in his eyes.
Seeing the knights wearing heavy plate armor and eagle emblems on the giant eagles, he was even more confused.
"Is this the Eagle Guard?"
He just stayed underground for a few days.
How did the Eagle Guards beat him back to his hometown?
Could it be that Trump was overwhelmed by the "great blueprint" and sent troops to attack North Wind Castle?
But when he saw the giant eagles swooping down in groups, he couldn't care so much and could only fight.
"They formed such a dense formation"
"Are you waiting for me to cook barbecue?"
After not killing for a long time, Cassius couldn't help licking his lips and exhaling a breath of hot air with a sulfur smell.
The brutality deep in the blood of the red dragon was awakened.
Alger was originally commanding from high in the sky, swinging his sword to command the Eagle Guards to charge.
But the moment he saw the red figure from afar, his face suddenly changed, and his tone revealed panic and nervousness for the first time.
"Dragon!"
"It's a red dragon!"
Alger shouted desperately.
Dragon, no matter what kind of dragon, is an opponent he absolutely does not want to encounter in battle.
Whether it is the scales that are harder than armor, the endless large-scale breath, or the endless spell-like abilities, they are all the absolute nightmares of the Giant Eagle Knights.
"Scatter! Scatter!"
However, not everyone has the same keen senses and superb riding skills as him, who can detect danger at high speed and stop charging.
The Eagle Guards have already lined up and charged to the entrance of the cave.
Everything is too late.
Cassius only slightly opened his jaw, and the dragon's unique basal blood vessels filled the flame energy from the whole body into the lungs. Those hot elements accumulated in the lungs and throat, making his chest glow faintly like lava - this is the precursor of the red dragon's breath.
"Flame spewing!"
In an instant, the extremely hot and majestic flames gushed out of the red dragon's mouth, and the raging flames ruthlessly devoured all the Eagle Guards charging in the front row, turning the entire cave entrance into a purgatory on earth.
The flames swept everything, and the few people who rushed to the front had no chance to resist. They only reflected the red light of the flames in their pupils, and then they were turned into ashes.
However, compared with many of their companions, they were even lucky, at least they died quickly.
And the more than ten Eagle Guards behind them also ignited with raging flames, turning into fireballs.
"Ah!"
"I'm on fire!"
"It's so hot!"
"Help! Help!"
They could only wail, scream, and struggle, and eventually they were either burned to death or fell from the giant eagle and died. In short, they could not escape the claws of the red dragon that was like the god of death.
The red dragon was calm and slowly flapped its wings and flew up, looking down at the eagle guards burned by the flames.
Chimera humbly hid behind the red dragon, shrinking his neck and watching the scene of killing, shouting for revenge, and no longer had the heart to resist the red dragon.
Because the scene in front of it made it deeply understand that such power was no longer something it could fight against.
The two-legged dragons in the air raised their heads and screamed, celebrating the return of the owner of this nest.
The ogres waved their sticks and hammers and cheered. The goblins also raised their short spears, excited.
The kobolds knelt on the ground as if they had seen a god, witnessing the powerful power of their master.
In just a moment, the situation was completely reversed.
Seeing dozens of comrades who fought side by side died in an instant, Alger's eyes turned red, but he still flew up with the giant eagle flapping his wings and raised the sword in his hand.
The wind swept across the hollow pattern of the sword, making a harsh sound like an eagle's cry.
He shouted: "Retreat! Everyone retreat!"
"Disperse and retreat!"
The remaining twenty or so Eagle Guards saw the terrible situation of purgatory just now, knowing that they could not defeat the enemy in front of them, and fled without hesitation on the giant eagles, each flying in different directions.
Eagle Guards require a lot of resources to train, so they have been taught since childhood to preserve their manpower to the greatest extent.
Cassius hung high in the air and flapped his wings slowly.
He looked at the Eagle Guards fleeing in all directions, with a barely perceptible grin on his face.
"We've already fought our way to our lair - and you're still thinking of running away?"
"Are you looking down on dragons a bit too much?"
The red dragon slowly rose to the highest point, and the basal blood vessels once again filled the lungs with fire elements, accumulating high-temperature energy deep in the throat - but this time the energy was not as concentrated as last time.
Alger did not forget to look back as he retreated. He looked up at the red dragon hovering in the sky, and his expression suddenly changed again.
"Dragon Breath!"
"Another Dragon Breath! Get out of the way!"
He shouted at the top of his lungs.
Casius only slightly opened his jaw, and blazing flames poured out.
"Target breath weapon!"
This time, the red dragon did not spit out a large-scale breath of flames, but several short breaths of fireballs.
One by one, the fireballs were accurately aimed at the direction where the Eagle Guards were fleeing, carrying scorching energy and flying towards the target.
"Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The sound of several flames bombarded the air, and several knights who were hit fell with flames.
Alger, who was also targeted, spun several times in the air and turned sharply, and finally avoided the bombardment of the fireball.
"What on earth is this..."
This is not a breath, it is just like a magician's extremely precise fire spell.
Watching his companions fall from the sky, Alger took a deep breath and said decisively:
"You retreat first!"
"I'll divert the attention of the dragon."
Alger stroked the charred feathers of the giant eagle again and whispered: "Iger, this may be our last charge."
The giant eagle understood what he was saying and cried in a low voice.
They are not only knights and mounts, but also comrades who have lived together day and night and grown up together.
"It's a pity that I haven't had time to repay the Duke's kindness, and I haven't killed all those damn demons."
Alger muttered to himself.
Years of combat training have made him clear every key point of flying and every airflow, as if he has become one with the giant eagle.
He skillfully controlled the giant eagle and continued to climb until he was higher than the red dragon, until he turned into a blurry black dot in the eyes of everyone.
Alger dived down from the highest point.
-- He rushed straight towards the powerful red dragon that others could not avoid, just like Don Quixote rushing towards the windmill in the story.
"Cry--"
A powerful eagle cry resounded through the sky.
Cassius raised his head slightly and noticed the eagle guard swooping down rapidly in the sky. His golden pupils opened slightly:
"Interesting."
"He is actually a high-level warrior?"
