Steel steam and flame

The muscles in his legs suddenly swelled, and the skinny man ran forward even harder. He was able to avoid obstacles on the route through perception and memory. He turned his head and looked forward. The surrounding scenery did not change in a short period of time, and was still completely obscured by light.

The skinny man seemed to be running in a boundless white space with no boundaries around him. I don't know if there is a problem with my perception, or if my instinct blocks some sensory transmission signals on my body in advance. This blazing white space is like an endless abyss, unconscious and without an end.

"Gammel! Get down!" The space was rapidly fading away from color, and the skinny man heard a huge roar coming from ahead, coming from Gardner. At this moment, the blazing white faded into bright orange light, and the skinny man saw the things around him. However, the dark brown tree bark a moment ago turned into pitch-black charcoal in an instant, and his running legs could suddenly carry him. Large tracts of thick fog-like black ashes - dead leaves, some of which are still in their original state as they fell to the ground, just waiting for a tiny bit of force to break their shapes into pieces. In a short period of time, all these dead leaves turned into ashes.

No time, thought the skinny man Gummer. He wanted to turn his head and look behind him to see what was going on. But a twisted shock wave carried a heat wave and hit him directly, causing him to rush forward more than ten meters. Before Ganmel could steady his steps, a wall of bright flames pushed forward, like a huge wave caused by a tsunami, or like a continuous and steep mountain wall that kept advancing. It pressed forward without any hindrance, completely engulfing Ganmel. Go in.

The wall of rolling flames is close to a height of two hundred meters, and will barely touch the huge crown of the ancient tree. The bright light could not be blocked. The circle around the defense circle melted directly. The surrounding leaves were burned into burnt black by the light in the blazing white light. Then they were completely turned into fly ash under the impact, and were destroyed by the impact. Carried away by air waves.

Under the blazing white light pillar, this place is like a circular stage, with the curtain spreading from the middle to all sides. The first exposed center position is a huge vitrified pit, followed by a ring of molten dark red outer ring, and finally a huge outer ring with a black tone.

The wall of fire had tremendous power, and it stopped its momentum until it spread into an irregular dark round cake with a diameter of nearly three to four kilometers. However, the destruction continues. Three to four kilometers is only the most effective killing area for the surgeon. The flames seem to have dissipated, but they continue to ignite dead leaves and branches under the ancient trees.

The whole process of impact is like the eye of a geyser, suddenly rushing into all directions. The translucent pattern lost its shape when it was close to six kilometers, and it turned into a wind, stirring up the sea of ​​trees in this area.

In mid-air, until this moment, two mature dragons with a body length of more than fifty meters slowly moved from high altitude to a few hundred meters above the woods, observing what was going on below.

"Hey, Nichols, you told me that there was a threatening enemy below, so I assisted you in the attack." The two dragons were tens of meters apart, close to the back of the dragon's neck. Each one was wearing a dark suit. The man in light-colored armor stood up straight and looked at the ground where thick smoke rose from below.

"If you don't feel it, that's your business, Foster." The man named Nichols said coldly, "It seems that the dragon knight's lack of ability is a two-way street. It's not just a problem with the knight itself, but also with the knight itself. There's a dragon problem." Nichols spoke without mercy.

"Want to fight again here?" Foster himself did not show any weakness at all, and directly went up to the challenge with his words.

"I have no objection. You can do it at any time. The food provided by the tribe recently is not much, and the quality is also poor. Turning you two into rations will just help it go through the growth period faster." Nichols patted his body. Dragon, said with a smile. The two dragons, who were tens of meters apart, now distanced themselves knowingly.

There was the sound of wind in the sky, and both of them looked up. Another dragon swooped down and quickly came between them. The visitor wore the same lightweight dark armor as the two men, but the dragon beneath him was nearly sixty-five meters long. Both himself and the dragon have stronger oppressive power than the two of them.

"I reminded you before departure not to bring personal emotions into the mission. We are now members of a dragonriding team." The visitor said, and looked below, "What's the situation? I don't think there is any direct response now. The necessary conditions exist to carry out a dragon's breath attack."

"Nichols said he sensed something threatening below and asked me to coordinate the attack. His acuity of perception has always been excellent, so I readily cooperated." Fords spread his hands and said, "But there is only one group with a larger number of people below. It’s just a team, and it’s very likely that the joint team is adding support. That’s it..."

"Are they the three frigate-class airships that came to support?" The visitor immediately looked around, but the smoke from the airship's emergency landing had already dispersed.

"I came here only after receiving the order." Nichols glanced at Fortes and said, "A damaged airship landed in this area, and those people below are the evacuees."

The visitor looked down again: "There will be no next time. Although most of this team are prisoners from the empire, there are still people from the Holy Emperor's Hall inside. The prisoners are within our cleaning range, but at this time, the enemy It’s impossible to go deep here, they still have a big role! Nichols, don’t make it difficult for the adults in the joint team. If they find it troublesome, they will get you into trouble later.”

"Also, what did Fortes mean by threatening?"

"It was detected by synaesthesia with dragons. There was a certain type of giant beast below. Before we attacked, it first threw dozens of rocks to attack. When we arrived, the area where the giant beast was at that time was roughly The team reunited and launched an attack directly." Nichols answered honestly, "Fortes also saw the huge rock, you can ask him."

"I did see it, flying through a big arc. It was because of seeing it that I lowered my altitude. Finally, Nichols sensed the threat and asked me for assistance. Looking at it now, the team below had already formed a formation when we came. They are probably at war with the lords of the second-type creatures in this area. They probably all died in the breath, the lord creatures in this area."

After hearing this, the visitor asked the dragon to descend and slowly land in the sintered glass-like pit. After looking around, the visitor didn't feel any other aura, and the dragons he had tamed also fed back roughly the same information. One person and one dragon then returned to the sky. The three dragon riders circled around several times separately. After discovering the emergency landing airship, they soon went to high altitude and returned to the joint team.

I don’t know how long it will take, maybe half an hour, or maybe two or three hours later, somewhere in this area.

This place has not been affected by the breath because it is still some distance away. A piece of ground covered with dead leaves slowly opened up, as cautiously as a child trying to open the door and sneak out to play while the adults were taking a nap.

A dragon's head poked out from the cave behind the "door" on the ground, looking straight at the sky covered by ancient trees.

"Ah,,,um,,," the voice was much softer than it was not long ago, maybe only it could hear it.

"I'm hungry... I'm hungry..." Imperial language came out from the huge open mouth. But this may not be true hunger, but a way of expressing oneself in fear of danger. The sound spread, and a claw grabbed two huge rocks that were still placed next to the "door", and then retracted into the cave with the head, disappearing here amidst the increasingly distant and distant grinding sounds.
