Chereads / The Merry Knight / Chapter 73 - Five-Clawed Divine Dragon

Chapter 73 - Five-Clawed Divine Dragon

The infantry and cavalry corps and archery corps of the system marched forward to a distance of about a mile from Tianlong City, and stopped their footsteps near the black cloud of the Two-Headed Crow King.

"Draw the bow and shoot!"

At the command, the archery corps lined up and prepared their bows and arrows, aiming at the Two-Headed Crow King in the sky.

"Fire!"

As the black cloud of the Two-Headed Crow King entered the attack range of the archery corps, the captain of the archery corps gave the order, and more than two thousand arrows were shot towards the dark wizard in the center of the black cloud, forming a huge arrow rain, a spectacular scene that left people stunned.

The battle of the ancient battlefield was reproduced, and the players went crazy watching such a realistic game. The immersive impact made their emotions surge.

Archers have the longest attack distance, and with their agile skills, they are often the nemesis of mage-type professions. The infantry archers used their expertise to launch the first attack when the dark wizards in the air could not attack them.

"Draw the bow and shoot!"

As expected of the system's infantry archery corps, their speed was truly astonishing. While the first round of arrows was still flying in the air, the second round of attack was already being prepared.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

The players, with their surging emotions, were completely swept away by the well-organized movements and powerful attacks of the archery corps. As the captain of the archery corps gave the command for the second attack, the millions of players in Tianlong City simultaneously let out a thunderous roar, a deafening sound that ripped through the sky.

"Ah!"

The players in Tianlong City suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

The first round of arrow rain from the archery corps finally hit the dark wizard in the sky, but the arrows hitting the black cloud created by the dark wizard were like hitting a steel plate.

A loud bang echoed through the air, causing 80% of the bows and arrows to break and fall to the ground. Even the powerful bows and arrows that pierced through the black clouds only inflicted less than 300 damage on the Dark Wizard.

Amazing, the Dark Wizard's power was completely beyond the players' expectations.

"What should we do when our attacks are ineffective?" TianHuo LengHun muttered to himself. If he were in command of this battle, what would he do?

What surprised the players even more was that, although the infantry and archer units on the ground were outside the attack range of the Dark Wizard, the Two-Headed Crow King, the boss led by the Dark Wizard, suddenly emerged from behind the feather coat of the Dark Mage and appeared directly above the Knight Order.

"Archers, conceal yourselves!"

"Knight Order, defend!"

The archer unit that was about to shoot the second round of arrows suddenly saw the Two-Headed Crow King appearing above them. Upon seeing the gleam in the Two-Headed Crow King's eyes and the black light emitted from the fan in its hand, the captain of the archer unit immediately changed his focus and issued the "concealment" command.

The infantry and knight units cooperated skillfully with the actions of the archer unit. When the archer unit crouched down, the knights immediately held up their huge, heavy shields to tightly cover the two units, preparing for a tight defense.

The fan in the Two-Headed Crow King's hand began to fan rapidly. A continuous stream of black lightning struck the ground, covering all the knights' shields.

The sound of thunder striking the shields, "pop, pop, pop," continued incessantly, making it clear just how powerful these black lightning bolts were.

The Two-Headed Crow King's strength was too insane. It launched such a comprehensive attack without even casting a spell, and the attack was continuous without any signs of stopping.

The knights who defended with all their might felt their huge shields getting heavier and heavier. The lightning bolts striking the shields were like thousands of pounds of giant rocks, making them exhausted.

"Quack… quack…"

The Two-Headed Crow King looked at the Knight Order on the ground, which endured its lightning attack, with great dissatisfaction. It suddenly howled to the sky, and the black fan in its hand began to make strange movements, accumulating black light in the air.

"The Two-Headed Crow King is drawing a symbol, it's going to trigger a massive magic attack!"

Looking at the strange pattern gradually forming in the air, several experienced mages exclaimed in surprise.

"Dark Thunder Shakes The Sky!"

Indeed! The Two-Headed Crow King finished drawing his talisman, and began to spin rapidly. His fan, like a whirlwind, swept towards the black figures converging in the sky, triggering three massive dark thunder strikes.

"Boom!"

The first thunderbolt hit the giant shield of the knight's squad, causing the knights and archers below it to fall to the ground. Fifty percent of the shield turned into debris, while the other fifty percent fell on the knights and archers lying on the ground, leaving enormous cracks.

"Boom!"

The second thunderbolt hit the knights and archers lying scattered on the ground, causing cries of mourning. Ninety percent of the knights and archers were dead, except for a few highly skilled warriors.

"Boom!"

It wasn't over yet, as the final thunderbolt followed closely behind, and in the deafening roar, the ground beneath the knights and archers was blasted into a deep pit.

It was as if this place was naturally a massive abyss, without any trace of the knights and archers, as if they had never appeared here.

The players were stunned by this scene.

This was like a scene from an ancient war in a movie. Although players had seen this kind of scene many times in movies, it was their first time witnessing it with their own eyes, and the feeling of reality was overwhelming, making them boil with excitement, wishing they could rush forward and experience this power for themselves.

My goodness!

The Two-Headed Crow King was so powerful that even the system's knights and archers, who were level sixty experts, were easily wiped out. My heart was bleeding with grief.

The strength of the Dark Magician, the Two-Headed Crow King, was comparable to that of a divine beast. This was not just my idea; I'm afraid all the players present thought the same.

It's over. I'm going to be killed back to level one. I wonder if I can save my life by returning the "Dark Purple Tianlong" pet egg to the Two-Headed Crow King.

"Quack… Quack…"

The Two-Headed Crow King was quite satisfied with the damage it had caused, and as it watched the human army being wiped out, it arrogantly raised its head and let out a long howl of triumph. Then, its four shining eyes locked onto Tianlong City, ready to launch the next attack.

The Two-Headed Crow King is approaching," exclaimed the players.

Several gang leaders furrowed their brows in disappointment. They had thought they had stumbled upon a lucrative boss encounter, but upon seeing the Two-Headed Crow King's power, they knew they stood no chance against this monstrous bird. Even if all the players in Tianlong City banded together, they wouldn't be able to scratch a single feather. The leaders were now gesturing for their brothers to retreat or log out, in order to avoid unnecessary losses. During battle, players cannot use teleportation scrolls or log out unless they die or disengage from the fight.

"Ding-dong! The dark magic of the Two-Headed Crow King, the master of darkness, has stirred the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon, the guardian beast of Tianlong City, from its slumber. The Five-Clawed Divine Dragon will now expel the invaders and protect Tianlong City."

"Quick, look! What is that?"

As the system announcement was broadcasted, and with no prior knowledge of the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon, one player pointed to the temple tower in Tianlong City and yelled.

Other players looked over and saw the tower glowing with a small golden light that quickly grew in size and intensity. It illuminated the entire city with such brilliance that players could not bear to look at it directly.

"Ahhhh!"

A deafening roar echoed throughout the city, making beasts bow and winds change course, and causing the earth and sky to tremble. In the midst of this tremendous sound, all the golden light coalesced into a magnificent Five-Clawed Divine Dragon.

The dragon was over thirty meters long, its golden scales sparkling in the sun. Its head was held high, and it stood on clouds, walking through the air with an incomparable pride and majesty.

"Honey, hurry up and log in! There's a divine beast!"

Today's scene was too shocking. One player beside me stared blankly at the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon above and muttered to himself, lost in awe or foolishness.
