Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 1031: Chapter 148: Main Forces Decisive Battle · Might of the Dragon Knight (Part 4)

Aeliria, like a dark green comet, tore through the smoke and mist hanging over the battlefield, plunging down towards the eastern highland of Blue Mirror Castle with the force of a thunderclap!

”Dragon! It’s that dragon! It’s coming for us!”

The oppressive presence of Dragon Knights was unmatched, and the highland frontlines erupted instantly with terrified screams. Soldiers instinctively looked up as a gigantic shadow encompassed them, the chilling Dragon Mighty crashing down on each heart like a solid Heavy Hammer. Inadequately trained conscripts and mercenaries collapsed instantly, many dropped their weapons and curled up instinctively, causing a lethal disruption in the formation.

Aeliria’s enormous dragon wings flapped furiously, whipping up a savage hurricane that made the flags on the highland snap wildly, nearly toppling the front-row soldiers. Her long dragon neck arched high, her emerald vertical pupils locked onto the crowd below, destruction brewing deep in her throat.

”Hold steady! Raise the shields! Lancers! Aim for the sky!” Baron Grant roared hoarsely, trying to stabilize the line. Several somewhat composed officers also swung their swords, forcing soldiers to raise their lances and shields, forming a sparse Iron Thorns attempting to block the Giant Dragon.

However, in the face of a true Giant Dragon, the resistance of mere mortals seemed pitifully absurd!

Aeliria suddenly swooped down, opening her maw wide enough to swallow a carriage at less than a hundred feet from the frontline!

”Whoosh!!!”

It wasn’t the fierce flame, but a Green Dragon assault filled with terrifying high temperatures and strong corrosive power! A viscous, rolling, foul-smelling sulfur and decayed vegetation marked the torrent that poured down like a waterfall, precisely covering the area where several officers were stationed and the formation attempting to assemble behind them!

Sizzle—!

A horrific scene unfolded! The ghastly green breath touched the raised shields and armor, and the metal instantly emitted the piercing sound of strong acid corrosion, billowing white smoke, rapidly becoming pitted, even melting! Upon contact with flesh, it was like scorching asphalt pouring down! Soldiers didn’t even have time to scream; under the frightening high temperature and deadly poison, their skin and muscles dissolved and charred swiftly!

The sturdy shield wall crumbled like paper under the breath, the covered area quickly transformed into bubbling, foul-smelling purgatory scorched earth! Severed limbs flickered in the viscous toxic mist, and those soldiers fortunate enough to escape direct hit were scalded by the steam fumes, clutching their faces, writhing painfully on the ground, emitting inhuman wails! Just one breath obliterated several carefully organized small defensive nodes and dozens of soldiers in this devastating strike!

After the breath, Aeliria’s massive body didn’t pause, crashing meteor-like into the center of the highland army’s formation! The physical trampling began!

Boom!!!

The ground trembled violently! The massive dragon claws fell, the foot covered in hard scales easily crushed the soldiers below along with their shields into pulp! Sturdy plate armor twisted and deformed under the dragon claws, emitting a tooth-aching metallic groan. Her thick dragon tail swept fiercely, like a giant siege hammer sweeping thousand soldiers! Soldiers blocking the path were sent flying like dolls hit by a catapult, tendons snapping, bones breaking, spewing fresh blood, knocked violently into a multitude of comrades! Every beat of the enormous dragon wing stirred up turbulent airflow, sending soldiers attempting to approach staggering, the formation utterly collapsing!

Su Li stood steadily on the dragon saddle, the Rare Level Warhammer·Skull Breaker in her hand shining with scorching red light, every swing violently knocking away soldiers who bravely (or foolishly) tried to attack Aeliria’s fragile parts with their lances or crossbow arrows.

Aeliria rampaged through the enemy lines, everywhere she went, blood and flesh flew, screams shook the heavens! The solid infantry phalanx in front of her tore, crushed, trampled like paper-made toys with ease! Soldiers’ courage quickly crumbled in absolute power and terrifying Dragon Mighty.

”Devil! It’s a devil!”

”Run! Hurry run!”

”Can’t stop it at all!”

Panic spread quickly like a plague. The area ravaged by the Giant Dragon completely turned into a slaughterhouse; soldiers lucky to survive lost all fighting spirit, throwing away armor, crying and fleeing towards the rear castle, only regretting their parents hadn’t given them more legs. Their rout crashed into the rear reserves, the entire highland defense line collapsing visibly under this destructive dragon incursion!

Kingdom Knight Edgar retreated bloodied to Baron Grant’s side, shouting desperately: ”Lord, we must summon reinforcements promptly. This hastily assembled force’s morale and willpower are too poor, incapable of resisting the enemy’s formidable blade. The adversary is simply strolling leisurely, defeating us without expending any energy.”
