Dragon King's Harem Chapter 191. Fiery Ground I

The Others' PoV

An hour had passed since The Dragon King kidnapped Xinrax, yet they had not been able to save the king. Although they had found the king's location from the fierce battle between them, rescuing him was another matter. The dragons stood in their way and killed anyone who tried to interfere with the duel. It turned the rescue mission into another deadly battle for both tribes.

Explosions echoed in the sky. The fire burned the ground and earth spikes charged into the sky. The Minotaurs desperately tried to make their way to their king but to no avail. The Dragons circled above the Minotaurs and threw their flames. Some didn't hesitate to dive in and pounced on the Minotaurs with their claws before the dragons took them up to the sky and tossed them down. Only some managed to repel them with their weapons.

To make it worse, most of the dragons were already in their true form and the Minotaurs couldn't find any other way to hide in that flat terrain.

There were no forests or rocks where they could hide. What they could do was create their own hideout with their skills. Even their true form was useless since it would make the dragons find them easier.

Some of the Minotaurs who rode the Crawbat had also tried desperately to get past the dragons. But none of them succeeded. Although their speed and strength were not much different, what the Minotaurs could do was swing their weapons and use their buff skills. None of them could maximize their Earth Mana Element. While the dragons could use their fire skills freely. It was an unequal battle.

One by one the Minotaurs fell from the sky and hit the ground. Gradually, the field filled with the Minotaurs' corpses, just like what happened in front of The Firestone Fortress. Still, the Minotaurs didn't give up. Even though they hated this battle, the king's orders were absolute. They had to save him even if they had to pay for it with their lives.

Among that one side slaughters, the only ones who could give good counters were General Dravis and a few of his elite soldiers. They created a giant wall and threw the dragons with huge rocks, knocking some of them down. But killing the dragons was another thing.

Since killing the dragons was not their main mission, they put their concentration on pushing past the dragon's barricade, not killing the one that fell.

Once again, General Dravis used his Earth Spike to create a distraction for the dragons.

"Move!" he ordered as he marched forward Together with his soldiers among the giant spikes that burst from the ground. The ground around them shook violently but none of the Minotaurs could pass them easily.

The dragons, on the other hand, roared furiously and unleashed their fire skills to destroy the spikes. Some destroyed them with their tails and claws or even crashed their massive bodies. But for sure, they took time and the minotaurs used that to make their way to the king.

As the General moved, he continued to grumble in his heart. He couldn't help but hate the king who brought the minotaur into this war. He cursed him!

It was impossible to destroy the dragons in the first place, and the king should have known it. The dragons didn't hold the title of the strongest tribe out of empty bluff, again, the king should have known that. Yet the king still decided to attack just because of the Orc king's sweet talk.

That decision domed them. Even though he didn't want to save the king, his Mark of Servant didn't allow him to do so. So here he was, bringing his soldiers, trying to save his stupid brother's.

The general and his army just barely ran a hundred meters, but a white dragon that looked calm among the rest suddenly roared. Dozens of surrounding dragons immediately gathered around him before they dived in towards them, straight on the earth spikes.

“Incoming!” warned the general. The others immediately prepared their weapons.

Although General Guillotine did not participate in this battle and chose to concentrate on the orcs which were supposed to be arriving soon, that white dragon was definitely different from the others and possessed extraordinary strength. At first, General Dravis thought he was just the king's double. But once he joined the battlefield, the general changed his mind.

Once the dragons arrived at the tips of the minotaurs' Earth Spikes, their bodies suddenly shrunk before they turned into their humanoid form. Their feet landed on the spikes and they charged as fast as they could along the spike towards the minotaurs with weapons ready to tear their enemy apart. Still, even though they were in their humanoid form, all of them had the gaze of a beast. One of them was Eir.

Eir spread his sword to the side. His eyes locked at General Dravis furiously. His feet stepped swiftly on the spike. He was the leader of this raid.

Once he almost reached the spike base, Eir pounced on Dravis with his sword held high.

Thinking Eir would attack him from above, Dravis raised his weapon. He planned to counter Eir with his weapon and use his Earth Needle skill to deal with the damage. But his prediction was wrong.

Before their weapons clashed, Eir suddenly threw the fire from his mouth. It was enough to make Dravis retreat.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, instead of attacking him from above, Eir landed in front of Dravis before he lunged fiercely and swung his sword horizontally.

It shocked Dravis and almost ended his life. If it wasn't because he created an Earth Wall by reflex, he'd probably be dead. So rather than him, it was the wall that was split into two. It showed how skillful his opponent was.
