Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The lizard commander’s pupils tightened when he saw this tragic scene.
“Damn bastard! Bastard!!”
Those were the elites in its hands. The dark gargoyles and mummy heroes annihilated two squadrons in a single exchange.
The lizard commander’s heart bled!!
The opponents had already left on the dark gargoyles when it wanted to fight.
This made the lizard commander extremely furious.
The lizard commander discovered the scattered dark gargoyles attacked the surroundings and charged in its direction.
Not only did the dark gargoyles want to destroy the opponent’s troops, but they also wanted to kill the lizard commander!
How could the commander endure it?
The lizard commander condensed the majestic magic energy in its hands.
Two terrifying fireballs with high temperatures appeared in its hands.
The fireballs suffused a green light. With the support of magic, they could quickly melt steel.
After the fireballs reached a limit, the lizardmen waved their hands forward, and the two fireballs pounced on the dark gargoyles that attacked them.
The two fireballs shot out.
After the two fireballs flew for more than twenty meters, they collided and merged into a giant one in a blink of an eye.
The size of the fireball soared more than ten times, and the light around it distorted. It hit the dark gargoyles with a long tail of flames.
‘Bang!’
The giant fireball exploded in the air, and a dozen-meter tall ball of flames rose.
The sky suddenly lit up, and heat waves surged.
The spell power was unleashed to the maximum without the terrain to stop it.
It directly swallowed the gargoyles.
The lizard commander’s face distorted.
“Immune to magic?! I’d like to see what kind of magic you are immune to!!”
‘Whoosh! Whoosh!’
However, while the lizard commander was on the verge of joy, the sound of wings flapping begird the battlefield.
A few massive fireballs rushed out from the flames.
The flames on their bodies disappeared after a few breaths, and the body of the dark gargoyle appeared.
The flame-filled sky turned into a backdrop, and the body that reflected the metallic luster became even brighter.
The dark gargoyle was unharmed.
‘Whoosh! Whoosh!’
The other dark gargoyles did not take a detour at all. They directly passed through the area of flames and dived down.
They charged straight at the lizard mage behind them.
The lizardman commander was shocked, but it could not just sit there and wait for death!
It roared angrily and suddenly tightened its grip on the monitor lizard’s reins.
“Monitor lizards, tear them apart!!”
More than ten giant monitor lizards around immediately uttered a prolonged cry.
These more than five meters long monitor lizards suddenly jumped from the ground when the first dark gargoyle dived.
They were like crocodiles that hunted wild oxen in the water.
The gargoyle flapped its wings and nimbly avoided the opponent’s giant mouth.
The sharp claws on its legs suddenly stomped on the giant monitor lizard’s head.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the giant monitor lizard fell to the ground with a wail.
But because the gargoyle’s attention was on this giant monitor lizard, another giant monitor lizard at the back seized the opportunity.
‘Phew!’ The giant monitor lizard suddenly jumped and bit the gargoyle’s thigh.
‘Kacha!’
The terrifying bite force dented the gargoyle’s body and left a bite mark.
Its excessive weight outrightly grabbed the dark gargoyle tightly, and no matter how hard it flapped its wings, it could not get away.
Desert giant monitor lizard was Rare 2-stars.
The other giant monitor lizards also jumped abruptly at this moment.
Under the sudden attack, three or four giant monitor lizards forcefully dragged the dark gargoyle down.
When the other dark gargoyles saw the dragged comrade could not escape, they simply did not leave.
They waved their sharp claws and started to fight against several five-meter-long giant monitor lizards.
They were ferocious and domineering.
They stirred up sand on the ground.
The number of desert giant monitor lizards was limited, after all. When more dark gargoyles rushed down, no power could stop them.
The lizard cavaliers and warriors surrounded the gargoyles at this moment. They tried to stop the dark gargoyles from killing the lizard mage.
However, no one could stop the charging dark gargoyles.
Sharp barbs covered their sharp claws, wings, elbows, and knees.
They were born to kill.
Every charge accompanied a vast number of body fragments that flew.
The killing was intense.
Xina looked at the lizardmen frantically hunted with a bright smile on her scarred face.
Death and slaughter were glorious.
‘Roar!’
The detestation in her heart rose to the extreme. And the lizard commander suddenly raised the black magic mace in its hand.
An exaggerated whirlpool-like power in the sea condensed frantically.
Magical tides even surrounded the battlefield.
The mace’s top suffused dim light.
The majestic aura was like thousands of tons of seawater had rolled into the sky and filled with an indescribable sense of oppression.
When Xina saw this scene, hatred rose in her eyes.
“Relic…”
If the lizard commander did not have this treasure from the relic, how could she be captured?!
She suddenly looked up at the sky and shouted with all her strength.
“Quickly leave this area. That magic mace is a relic that can seal all the power in the surroundings…”
Before she could finish her sentence, a wave of magic sealed her mouth and made it unable to produce any sound.
The lizardmen behind her immediately commanded the giant monitor lizards to retreat to the side.
Xina could only sigh in her heart, her gaze fixed on the sky.
The young man looked at the lizard commander as expected in the next second.
The lizard commander waved its hand.
The gargoyles around seemed to have gone mad. They ignored everything else and directly charged toward the lizard commander.
The lizard cavaliers acted as the last line of defense.
The lizard commander sent the remaining seven or eight giant monitor lizards to protect themselves. Their defense was at its peak.
However, when dozens of Rare 3-star dark gargoyles attacked the same target, their power was exceedingly stalwart.
Those giant monitor lizards were fierce, but the dark gargoyles were fiercer.
Under the layers of protection, the dark gargoyles forcefully tore the enemy’s defense line. They took a piece of broken limbs and killed it to the core position.
A sturdy magic shield rose in front of the lizard commander at this moment. It tried to block the gargoyles with force.
But a shocking scene appeared in the next second.
The gargoyles waved their sharp claws.
‘Crack!’
The sound of shattered glass rang out.
The sturdy magic shield ultimately didn’t last three seconds under the siege of a few gargoyles before it shattered.
The black magic mace in its hand released a terrifying amount of mana, but the gargoyles did not care at all. They charged forward, their sharp claws pierced through the lizard commander’s abdomen.
It pulled hard, and blood spurted out.
The lizard commander’s spell was finally complete at this moment.
Blood spurted out of its mouth, and the lizard commander waved its black magic mace.
‘Bang!’ A frizz of air surged like a ripple.
It shot out in all directions.
In that instant, the surrounding air seemed to have frozen.
Everyone, including Richard, stopped in their tracks.
Only the lizard commander with a large hole in the abdomen and magic mace in hand could move.
However, the lizard commander only coughed up blood unwillingly. Its eyelids became increasingly heavier. And finally, with a plop, it fell from the giant monitor lizard’s back onto the sand.
The black magic mace in its hand also flew out.
In that instant, the frozen space regained its freedom…
When the surrounding lizardmen saw the death of the lizard commander, they instantly went berserk.
One by one, they ferociously charged toward the dark gargoyles. Their state was like that of a mad demon.
However, the leaderless lizardmen faced the much stronger dark gargoyles. They were like mayflies that tried to shake a tree. The charging lizardmen toward the gargoyles only became corpses.
These Rare 3-star troops used their heftiest stance to show off their strength.
After the gargoyles eliminated the gravest threat, they turned to death and started a round of brutal slaughter.
No lizardmen could escape from their sharp claws.
Even if the defeated lizardmen in the end and the cavaliers wanted to escape, they could not get away with the gargoyle’s sharp claws…
Xina fell from the back of the giant monitor lizard during the battle. Then, two giant monitor lizards that bled profusely blocked her.
She could only hear the sounds of the battle that gradually weakened.
In the end, the air became so quiet. All she could hear was herself breathing.
Was the battle over?
After a long time.
‘Sasha! Sasha! Sasha!’
The sound of footsteps on the sand could be heard.
Then, the giant monitor lizard corpse that blocked her line of sight shook and began to rise.
Her line of sight looked from the ground and gradually widened.
Two dark gargoyles’ thick thighs appeared in front of her. After the gargoyles moved the giant monitor lizard away, the young man who was in the air just now stood outside.
Two mummy heroes stood guard on both sides.
The handsome young man played the lizard commander’s dark magic mace. His pitch-black eyes looked at her after the lizard copse moved away.
Xina looked directly into the young man’s eyes. Their eyes met. Curiosity filled their standpoint.
Who was this young man?
