Giant Dragon Lord: Starting from Daily Intelligence

Chapter 256: Chapter 250: Black Stone Territory, Strike

’So that’s how it is.’

Raylo understood in an instant.

This Demon Serpent head wasn’t the work of Blood River alone; it was a War Weapon created by concentrating the vital energies of tens of thousands of Snake-man Warriors.

It was powerful, but not invincible.

Its foundation was the tens of thousands of Snake-men below who were performing the ritual!

As long as the ritual was interrupted, the head would collapse on its own!

In a flash, Raylo made his decision.

He issued an order to his Personal Guard.

”Order Ed—full-scale attack! Target: the Snake-man Legion!”

At the same time, he flipped his right hand, and an ancient, desolate-looking horn appeared within it.

The Horn was pale white, inscribed with complex and profound star patterns.

Raylo brought the Soul Horn to his lips, channeled his Magic Power, and blew.

OOOOM!

A desolate note echoed out, as if from the primordial sea of stars.

Just as Poison Fang was smirking, preparing to ascend and join Blood River in besieging the Golden Dragon Sun, the space before him suddenly warped. A dazzling blue starlight materialized out of thin air and crashed down in front of him!

The starlight faded, revealing a Knight standing silently upon the earth, clad in blue Star Armor and wielding a Sapphire Giant Sword.

His figure wasn’t particularly imposing, but his very presence was like a true star descended upon the mortal plane, forming its own Domain and radiating a cold, silent, and unshakeable aura.

Beneath the helmet’s visor, two points of ethereal blue Soul Fire burned quietly.

The Starfall Knight!

A genuine Domain Level Knight!

Thanks to Luke, the Soul Horn, now embedded with a Tier Five Magic Core, was powerful enough to summon a complete Starfall Knight.

Poison Fang froze. His dark green pupils contracted, and he stared intently at the figure who had suddenly appeared to block his path.

He could clearly feel the pure, powerful Domain Power radiating from the other, in no way inferior to his own.

High in the sky, Raylo didn’t spare them a second glance, simply issuing a quiet command to the Starfall Knight.

”Stop him.”

”As you command, my Lord.”

The Starfall Knight gave a slight nod. He leveled his Giant Sword, pointed it toward Poison Fang from afar, and silently assumed a combat stance.

At that very moment, Black Stone Territory finally bared its true fangs!

RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE!

The earth began to tremble violently.

It was as if the Earth Dragons were turning over in their sleep.

On the Snake-man Legion’s flank, the once-flat wasteland suddenly collapsed. Then, ten colossal figures, like moving hills, burst from underground, shattering the rock layer and kicking up a sky-full of dust!

It was the Mammoth Knights!

Atop each behemoth, five Knights in Heavy Armor sat upon war Mammoths that were also clad in heavy plating. They were like ten indestructible mobile Fortresses, their tusks like blades and their hooves like hammers, charging forward with unstoppable momentum!

Following close behind, twelve Earth Dragon Knights charged out on their ferocious mounts, letting out low roars.

The Earth Dragons pumped their powerful hind legs, running at speeds no slower than warhorses. The thick Scale Armor on their bodies could withstand most weapon damage.

The Mammoths and Earth Dragons formed the sharpest, yet most heavily armored, spearhead for breaking the enemy formation!

Behind them, hundreds of elite Heavy Armored Cavalry formed a torrent of steel, following in the wake of the two ace Knight units and smashing viciously into the main Snake-man camp, whose defenses were weakened by the ritual!

”Ambush!”

”It’s humans! On our flank!”

The rear of the Snake-man Legion instantly fell into chaos.

All of their elites, all of their attention, had been drawn to the Eternal Giant Turtle and the Golden Dragon at the front. No one had expected that such a terrifying cavalry force, capable of tearing everything apart, lay in ambush beneath the wasteland on their flank!

The Mammoth Knights at the vanguard didn’t bother dodging at all, crashing directly into the Snake-man Army Array.

The sounds of screams, shattering bones, and the squelch of flesh being crushed all mingled together.

Any Snake-man that stood in their way, whether an elite warrior or a Casting Priest, met the same fate.

To be ground into paste.

The Earth Dragon Knights were more agile and deadly. They acted like scalpels, precisely cutting into the weak points of the Snake-man formation. Every bite, every tail swipe, claimed several lives.

The torrent of cavalry followed, tearing open the breach that had been created, widening it, and mercilessly reaping the lives of the enemies who had fallen into chaos and fear.

Further back, nearly a thousand infantrymen from Black Stone Territory advanced in attack formation, their steps steady as they began to clean up the scattered and routed Snake-men.

However, this was only the beginning.

Just as the horrified commanders of the Snake-man Legion were trying to rally their troops to stop the ground charge, a clear, piercing cry of a griffin echoed from the clouds above them.

SKREEE!

The clouds in the sky were violently torn apart by an unseen force.

Sixteen Griffin Knights, riding their majestic mounts, were the first to dive out of the clouds.

They didn’t throw their Long Spears. Instead, they circled in mid-air, their massive wings kicking up a violent gale.

The winds gathered together, forming a gigantic tornado that connected heaven and earth, and slammed it viciously into the center of the Snake-man’s ritual formation!

In an instant, sand and stones flew, and the sky went dark.

Countless Low Tier Snake-men performing the ritual were swept into the sky, where they were instantly sliced into a rain of blood and gore by the sharp Wind Blades.

A huge gap visibly appeared in the ritual formation, and the crimson energy that had been steadily flowing to the Demon Serpent’s head began to fluctuate violently.

Following them were two hundred and forty Pegasus Knights.

They emerged in neat formations, pouring out from the gap in the clouds.

Their Armor glinted coldly in the sunlight, and the Javelins in their hands brought a chilling rain of death.

”Fire!”

With the command, a volley of Javelins, propelled by the speed of the Pegasi, rained down. They descended with ear-piercing shrieks upon the chaotic Snake-man Army Array below!

THWACK! THWACK! THWACK! THWACK!

The sound of countless Javelins piercing flesh became a continuous drone. Each Javelin found its target with precision, taking the life of a struggling Snake-man or one still trying to maintain the ritual.

One volley, and hundreds of Snake-men fell.

It was followed by a second volley, and then a third...

In that moment, the sky and the earth formed a perfect, coordinated strangulation.

On the ground, the Mammoth Knights and Earth Dragon Knights formed an iron hammer, crushing everything in their path;

In the sky, the Griffin Knights and Pegasus Knights formed a Net of Death, mercilessly blanketing the battlefield.

Beneath Raylo, Baofeng let out an excited, low roar, his own blood seemingly stirred by the spectacular scene.

The scales of the battlefield tipped decisively, the shift visible to the naked eye.

Black Stone Territory’s Thunderboltous Strike had landed precisely on the Snake-man Legion’s most vulnerable underbelly.

The Blood River Battle Group, originally tasked with supporting the ritual, were now helpless lambs under the iron hooves of the cavalry.
