Dragonites are half-dragon, half-human creatures. They are not real dragons.
They are just slaves of the dragon, beings of other races. They may even have been just beasts originally. After being loyal to the dragon, they were transformed by the dragon's energy into this half-dragon, half-human... monster.
If they were originally intelligent beings before being transformed, they might be able to retain good intelligence and strong combat effectiveness after being transformed into dragons. But more dragons are just slaves who only follow orders.
However, the dragon people do not think so in their own concepts. As far as the dragon people in front of them are concerned, their self-perception in their concepts is that they are the descendants of the black dragon.
The leader of them is the self-proclaimed Wild Razoghar. Although he is lacking in intelligence, he possesses powerful fire magic. He accepted Deathwing's order and lurked in Alterac.
"Kill them!"
Razoghar roared, and at the same time, he gathered powerful fire magic between his hands and bombarded everyone.
Bacromvoz was the first to counterattack. He used the same hot flame magic to resist Razorger's attack.
At the same time, a dozen dragon soldiers under Razogel also took action. Although their four-legged lower body steps were crazy, their speed was surprisingly fast. Pumilo subconsciously stepped forward to meet them.
The knife struck hard at the leading dragon officer.
"clang!"
Pumiro's blow was extremely heavy, almost cutting through the dragon man's arm armor. The dragon man officer glanced at the arm armor in surprise, let out a ferocious howl, and put his other arm around to catch Pumiro.
Pumiro quickly drew his sword and withdrew it, and saw that his long steel sword had been curled.
"Why is it so hard?!"
Just when he was exclaiming that the Dragon Man's armor was incredibly hard, Li De suddenly tugged on his back collar.
"Get out of the way!"
Pumillo was dragged and staggered, but he could barely avoid more than a dozen fireballs that passed by him!
Those fireballs hit the wall behind everyone, leaving a large scorch mark on the brick wall. If this had happened to Pumillo, one can imagine the consequences.
"What the hell is going on?!"
Ravenholdt still hasn't figured out why the Presto family has become a dead place. What's going on with these monsters?
But even if he didn't understand the truth, Ravenholdt's body reacted to the identity of the Master Assassin. As he spoke, he took light steps to find a cover for himself in the courtyard.
"You just need to know that these guys are the enemy!"
Li De shouted and at the same time pulled out the counterattacker and faced the dragon officer.
This guy's movements were extremely clumsy in Li De's eyes. According to Li De's estimation, the strength of this dragon man might not be as strong as Zandalar's "Hercules" Vokar.
Although the armor of unknown material was very hard, Li De was confident that he could cut through the gaps in the armor.
"Whoosh!"
After cutting off the opponent's forearm with a sword, Li De wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, but soon more than a dozen fireballs hit him.
More than a dozen fireballs hit his face, and even Li De didn't dare to push forward, so he had no choice but to retreat back.
"Guardian, these dragons have very poor intelligence. In addition to protecting themselves, they only follow the officers' lead. Their fireball spells will be directed to whomever the officers target."
Buck reminded loudly, and at the same time, he kept releasing fire magic in his hand, fighting against Razoghar who also released flames.
"Understood! The traditional thinking of beheading operations is not suitable for dealing with dragons! Pumillo, Jason, you cooperate with Duke Ravenholdt to deal with those dragon soldiers, remember not to panic.
Buck is responsible for counteracting Razoghar's fire magic. I will restrain this officer, and you can clear out the soldiers without being attacked by other people."
The three of them responded, and Pumillo and Jason charged towards a dragon soldier in the distance, while Ravenholdt's figure began to fade and disappeared from everyone's eyes.
Dragonites with low intelligence have no concept of helping each other. In addition to magical attacks on targets designated by their superiors, they will only fight back when they are harmed. If other ordinary soldiers are attacked, they will ignore it.
Regarding Buck's words, the three of them were still doubtful at first. After they besieged a dragon man, the dragon man just ten meters away actually stood by and watched. Finally, their concerns were dispelled.
"Don't let them kill our soldiers!"
Although he was not very intelligent, Razoghar could immediately realize such a simple intention. He opened his fat hands, and pillars of fire instantly rose from the ground, moving slowly throughout the courtyard. In an instant, the grass was all gone.
Burned to ashes.
Such a large-scale fire magic caused the three people who were dealing with the dragon soldiers to panic. The dragon officers kept instructing the dragon soldiers to fire fireballs at Li De.
In fact, this Dragonite officer was only an elite at best, but this annoying fireball kept Li De from getting close enough to give him a fatal blow.
Buckromworth, who was gradually becoming irritable, roared angrily and transformed back into the form of a giant dragon.
"You scum! Die!"
As a powerful adult dragon, Buck actually possesses the power of a hero. In his eyes, the dragons are despicable and inferior creatures, and he cannot bear the dragons' infringement on his majesty.
"..."
The true form of the adult dragon has a huge deterrent effect on the dragon people, causing all dragon people's movements to stagnate.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Pumiro and the others finally succeeded in killing the first dragon man!
Li De also seized the opportunity and launched a charge when the dragon officer was frightened by the dragon's power. The counterattacker cut the opponent's throat!
"clang!"
However, what Li De didn't expect was that his heavy blow would be blocked by the opponent?!
Li De was shocked and took two steps back, while the dragon officer took a dozen steps back. Although this collision was enough to show that there was an absolute gap between the dragon officer and Li De, he did survive.
"Hey……"
The dragon officer smiled triumphantly. It turned out that at the moment of life and death, his only remaining arm took out a shield from behind and saved his life.
The shield looked ordinary, as black as two turtle shells put together, and even a little ugly.
But from the thick grip and the fact that the shield was not damaged at all after blocking Li De's blow, you can tell that this is definitely not an ordinary thing.
"Is this that shield?! Why is it in their hands?!"
Ravenholdt couldn't help but exclaimed. Logically speaking, a skilled assassin should never make a sound during a battle, but seeing Alterac's famous weapon falling into the hands of a monster, he still couldn't help but exclaim.
arrive.
Li De didn't have time to pay attention to the origin of this shield, because his mistake just now meant that he had to guard against those annoying fireball spells again.
"Little bug! You are not worthy of being my enemy!"
Bakromvodz rushed towards Razogel in an overwhelming force, and slapped Razogor backwards several meters away with one claw.
The fat black dragon man crashed into the house behind him, smashing the entire door to pieces.
However, what the red dragon couldn't understand was that Razoghar quickly stood up from the debris, shook his big head and continued to provoke Buck.
Buck looked at his claws in disbelief. An ordinary dragon man would turn into a meat pie under these claws. Why is this guy so tough?
But soon things became even more difficult for him to understand. Razogel stood up again and looked a bit stronger than before. He even dared to rush over and wrestle with Buck!
Then Razogel was knocked down several times by Buck, but he was able to stand up again quickly, and his body became bigger and stronger than before. From being absolutely at a disadvantage before, he became evenly matched!
"Ahhhh!!!"
Buck couldn't bear that a dragon man could match him, so he finally lost his mind and released a magic that could not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
The dragon's breath, which was filled with strong life flames, poured down on Razorger's head like a river flowing backward.
Razoghar raised his hands high, and a ball of magic flame condensed between his palms. The flame was so intense that it almost turned black!
The fierce fire of the black dragon resisted the life flame of the red dragon, causing the flames to pour down throughout the courtyard like flowing water.
Li De, who was confronting the dragon officer, had to pay attention to the officer's unexpected shield attack while dealing with the overwhelming fireball. He was already in a hurry, but the spilled life flame made him even more unable to avoid it.
The dragons and several humans all ignored their opponents and hurriedly avoided the flames that seemed to be able to burn everything.
Although three dragonmen were successfully burned to death, Ravenholdt was accidentally contaminated by the flames! The flames spread to Ravenholdt's body in an instant! Ravenholdt looked like an anxious grasshopper.
Jumping back and forth, he plunged into the unburned grass in the distance.
Then I saw a wisp of black smoke rising from the haystack, and there was no life left.
"Buck! Stop!!!"
Li De shouted anxiously, not only did his magic accidentally hurt one of his own, it might have killed Ravenholdt completely!
Hearing Li De's shouting, Buckromworth finally calmed down and stopped breathing fire.
After the flames dissipated, what made Buck extremely desperate was that Razogel seemed not to have been harmed at all, but his body became even blacker and shiny, like glass tempered by fire! He even grew to be only bigger than
Buck is a head shorter!
"I……"
Buck realized that his behavior had made the situation worse, and he calmed down just as he was about to tell Li De away.
"There is no time to talk about this now, we must understand the enemy's weaknesses..."
The high temperature brought by the flame of life made the air extremely hot. The hot air distorted the scenery in everyone's eyes, but through the refraction of light, everyone finally saw things that could not be seen under normal circumstances:
There is a faint shadow energy line on the back of each dragon man, and these shadow lines are connected to Razoghar's chest.
It is these dragonmen who continue to use shadow energy to strengthen Razoghar! As long as these dragonmen accompany them in battle, Razoghar will become stronger and stronger!
"Red dragon! You can't beat me! You have already lost one person, and the remaining people cannot kill all the soldiers in a short time!"
I am strong enough to kill you before they kill these soldiers! I will use your blood to swear my loyalty to Deathwing!"
The situation in front of me seems to be unsolvable. Razoghar, who is bound to win, laughs wildly, and the Dragonite officer holding the shield also laughs proudly. So what about the heroic soldiers? They can't break through his solid barrier!
However, at the moment when the dragon officer commanded the dragon man to continue releasing fireballs, a change occurred!
The dragon officer suddenly froze mid-laughing! And fell into a brief dizziness!
Li De seized the opportunity and pulled out his riding whip, flicked it to summon Zhaoxia, and charged at the dragon officer with his men and horses!
"boom!"
This collision carried irresistible force, and the dragon officer was knocked out like a cannonball. In the dizziness, he had no time to raise his shield to resist. Even his shield-holding hand was struck by Li De in a flash of lightning.
Cut off!
Zhaoxia was proud of Xilulu and screamed violently. Li De wanted to catch up and eradicate the roots, but he didn't want to fall. A figure appeared out of thin air next to the Dragonite officer and inserted a knife into the Dragonite officer's head, completely knowing his life.
.
It was Ravenholdt who was "burned to death" by fire before.
It turned out that the moment Buckromworth breathed fire, Ravenholdt thought of a strategy to temporarily escape from the battle. He created a phantom stand-in to fake death.
In fact, he hid in the secret and discussed with Li De in a low voice the tactics to kill the Dragonite officer.
Li De hid himself in a stirrup, picked up the shield that blocked his attack from the ground, and held it in his hand to feel its weight.
"It's so heavy. This shield probably weighs more than a hundred pounds."
Ravenholdt came over to explain.
"This is a famous weapon preserved in the Alterac royal family. Legend has it that it was a strong shield made by the dwarf craftsmen of the first generation Perenold who made great achievements in the war against the trolls more than 2,000 years ago.
Its name is: The Unshakable Thing."
Li De suddenly realized that it was the work of a dwarf. No wonder it had such quality. Although it was not a top-notch shield, it was enough to deal with strong enemies.
"The Dragonite officer is dead! What will happen to the other Dragonites? Will they swarm him?"
Li De asked Buckromworth with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.
Buck, who was wrestling with Razogel in the rubble, answered in a leisurely manner.
"No, these dragons will quickly produce the next officer after the death of the officer. However, without the original officer and that powerful shield, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced!"
After getting such an answer, Li De knew it well.
All of Razoghar's evil powers come from the dragons who follow him. If you kill all the other dragons as soon as possible, Razoghar will stop growing in strength, and may even fall back to its original level.
It just so happened that Buck was close at hand to restrain the fat man, and Razorgor would not release a large-scale fire magic to interfere with them.
With the addition of Li De, Ravenholdt, Pumillo and Jason killed the dragons faster. Although several new dragon officers appeared later, none of them were as strong as the first officer.
, in less than an hour, these dragon soldiers were all wiped out!
The dragon soldiers had all been cleared away, and Razorgor's hand-to-hand combat ability had already surpassed that of Buck Romworth. At this time, Buck was being pushed to the ground and nakedly strangled, and Buck's head was buried in Razorgor.
It becomes difficult to breathe through the fat.
In a hurry, Li De immediately threw away the unshakable object as if it were a brick. A hard shield of more than 100 kilograms hit Razogel's skull, knocking him unconscious.
Speaking of which, Razoghar can be regarded as the gatekeeper under the heroes. With the increase in power of other dragonmen, ordinary heroes are no match for him.
But now he was the only one left. Facing the equally matched Buck and the even more powerful Li De, defeat was only a matter of time.
Just like this, another half hour passed, and the meat-like Razorger also fell down. After his death, he also returned to his original size.
The five people and one dragon who won the victory all had varying degrees of scars. The one who looked the worst was Buck, but the one who was most injured was Jason, because he was the weakest. When dealing with a single dragon, he was killed by a dragon.
The claws were scratched from his neck to his chest, and Pumillo and Ravenholdt were giving him first aid.
Li De was also burned in tatters by the fireball. He was mainly responsible for attracting the firepower of the Dragonite officers. There were always a few fireballs that were overwhelming, but there were always a few who couldn't hide in time.
He took out the best forage from the package and rewarded Zhaoxia. After he had eaten his fill, he wandered nearby for a while. Li Deze and Buck, who had returned to human form, explored the lair of this group of dragons.
