The organs were brutally destroyed from the body. The red dragon was in agony and rolling in the mud like crazy. It struggled for several minutes before gradually losing strength.
The powerful vitality of the red dragon clan can be seen from this. Even the degraded young dragons that have been forcibly matured have inherited part of the innate vitality.
"Ho~ho..."
As the red dragon stopped struggling feebly, its breathing rhythm became slower and slower, and eventually it completely lost its movement.
After more than a minute, the half-open mouth of the red dragon was forcefully opened from the inside.
"Pooh!"
A figure whose whole body was stained with dragon's blood walked out of the dragon's mouth, coughing red liquid onto the ground with a disgusting look on his face.
When destroying the red dragon's internal organs, Sarlayan was inevitably sprayed with blood all over his body, and some of the smelly blood even sprayed into his mouth.
Seeing Sarlayan, who was covered in blood, jumping around and spitting, Vereesa and Ronin breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
If it weren't for Sarlayan's flash of inspiration that rushed into the red dragon's fragile body and the dragon's strong scale defense, this battle would have lasted for a long time.
"Huh~"
After all the fuss inside the red dragon, which couldn't see any light, Sarlayan felt physically and mentally exhausted, so he sat in the mud puddle to recover his strength.
"Da~"
A sound of treading water suddenly came from not far away, and Sarlayan subconsciously looked towards the place where the sound came from.
Although there was no one there, Sarlayan guessed the identity of the visitor immediately.
"Little squirrel, how is the external situation?"
"Don't call me little squirrel!"
After making the customary comment, Valeera emerged from the shadows with a serious expression, and after carefully observing Sarai's safety, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's not good. Eight dragonmaw orcs are coming here in groups. They should be trying to recover this fallen red dragon."
"It couldn't have come at a worse time."
Sarlayan stood up from the ground with the Demon Slayer Greatsword, which also turned red, and activated the Eagle Eye spell at the same time as Vereesa to look in the direction Valeera pointed.
Luo Ning did not intend to compete with the ranger's eyesight. He used magic to absorb the surrounding water vapor, and took advantage of the little time before the enemy could reach it to condense it into water flow, washing away the sticky dragon's blood on Sarlayan's body.
"Thanks, Luo Ning."
Sarlayan turned to look at Vereesa: "What should I say? Fight or retreat?"
Nominally, the leader of this secret operations team is Luo Ning.
But Luo Ning, who still lacks self-confidence, has no confidence that he can fulfill the responsibility of the team leader. After setting off, he handed over the command to Vereesa, the most powerful and experienced person in the team.
Sarlayan and Valeela didn't have any objections to this either.
Although compared to her two sisters, Vereesa still seems a little immature.
But after all, she is a member of the Windrunner family who has received formal military training. If she is in charge, she will at least be much better than three fledgling rookies.
Vereesa had already used her long-sighted eagle eye to see the small group of dragonmaw orcs. She looked back at the red dragon's body and pondered for a moment.
"beat!"
"Now that the matter has come to this, we must eliminate all possibilities of exposing our whereabouts. We cannot let the orcs discover this red dragon that died mysteriously. This will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the Dragonmaw clan."
Sarlayan nodded: "Okay, let's first talk about how to fight this battle."
Vereesa's eyes flickered: "Valeera, have the traps been set?"
Valeela: "It has been laid, but I am not a full-time ranger, so I cannot guarantee the strength of the trap."
Vereesa took out the trap launcher from her backpack and tied it to the bow.
"As long as we can slightly delay the orcs and attract their attention, it's enough."
"Salayan, you are the only frontal combatant in the team."
"After the orcs break out of the trap, you should immediately entangle them and delay them. Don't be too eager to fight. Pay attention and wait for my signal."
Sarlayan: "No problem."
Vereesa continued to assign tasks: "Luo Ning, you stay behind to prepare your best large-scale spells, and release them as soon as you see the signal."
"In order to avoid attracting unnecessary ideas, the range should be compressed as much as possible to enhance the power."
Luo Ning seemed a little nervous, clenched the staff in his hand and nodded heavily: "Okay, leave it to me."
"at last……"
Vereesa looked at Valeera: "Valeera, if there are fish that slip through the net that Sharlayan failed to stop, I will leave them to you to control."
"You don't have to insist on killing them, just don't let them hit the back row directly."
Valeela made a gesture to acknowledge receipt, and then disappeared into the shadows.
Vereesa took a deep breath: "Be prepared, wait for the orcs to step on the trap and act immediately. You must not let any of them escape."
…
When Vereesa set up an ambush, the orc team observed by Valeera was slowly approaching the place where the red dragon fell.
Since the Wildhammer dwarves joined the Alliance and brought a large number of gryphon knights, the Dragonmaw clan, which was once unbeatable in the aerial battlefield, finally met its opponent.
A single griffin knight is no match for the red dragon, but it cannot stand against their large numbers.
Alexstrasza was forced by Nekros to use the Dragon Soul to mate and lay eggs with her eldest consort Tyranistrasz all the time.
However, the low fertility rate of the dragon family limited the number of red dragon mounts, and no matter how much Nekros urged, it was of no avail.
After the Griffin Knight joins the battlefield, red dragons will be shot down from the sky from time to time.
The red dragon's vitality is very strong. It still has a high probability of surviving after falling from the sky. It only takes a short period of training to return to the battlefield.
It's not surprising that Kul Tiras' fleet is escorted by gryphon knights.
Since Prince Derek Proudmoore and the First Fleet of Kul Tiras were destroyed by the flames of the red dragon, the Alliance, which suffered a great loss, has strengthened its navy's air defense capabilities and will equip its warships with a certain number of griffons at any time.
knight.
As early as when the red dragon knights were dispatched, the Dragonmaw clan had made corresponding preparations and sent rescue personnel as soon as they saw the red dragon falling to the ground from a distance.
This is not the first time this routine has happened. The eight orcs were quite relaxed during the unhurried march, and they were talking and laughing along the way.
Most of the orcs who drank the blood of demons had bad tempers, which resulted in the tribe's military discipline being very lax.
It's not uncommon for such incidents to occur during the march, even Orgrim is used to it.
At least, they didn't get their heads burned by the demon's blood and start fighting each other.
Several years have passed since the orcs invaded Azeroth, from the initial excitement of finding a new world to the anxiety after the war situation reached a stalemate, to the current passive fishing.
The chicken blood effect of demon blood gradually faded over time, and more and more orcs felt powerless and weak.
Orgrim discovered this phenomenon, which was one of the main factors that prompted him to make up his mind to withdraw to the Kingdom of Stormwind.
When the lax team of eight walked into the ambush, the first trap set by Valeela was triggered.
This trap is very simple. It is just a large amount of leaves spread on the swamp ground. It can be easily found by observing carefully.
But these inattentive orcs just stepped on it, and the two unlucky guys who were walking at the front to explore the path immediately fell into the swamp, waving their arms in panic and shouting loudly.
Once you accidentally fall into something like a swamp, the best way is to flatten your body to increase buoyancy, stay still in place, and wait for help from your companions.
The harder you struggle, the faster you will sink.
Just as the other orcs were frantically trying to pull their companions out of the swamp, they unknowingly triggered Valeela's second trap.
"Pfft~"
The diluted paralysis poison exploded from the ground in the form of smoke. The orc who accidentally inhaled it coughed violently and exited the smoke range, and his mobility was temporarily affected by the paralysis poison.
The panicked orcs fled into Sarlayan's attack range, and an afterimage rushed out from the grass on the roadside.
Before the orc running at the front had time to react, the sharp sword light cut off his head.
"Enemy attack!"
The orcs Ulala shouted in an unintelligible language. Sarlayan held the shield in front of him, shook off the blood beads on his one-handed sword, and grinned at the remaining orcs with a bloodthirsty smile on his face.
