The moon shone overhead, illuminating with its pale light the vast expanse of land between the draconian army and the towering fortress of the elves and dwarves. From his elevated position, Lu Ming, in his 50-meter dragon form, watched intently. His gaze pierced the darkness, focusing on the imposing magic wall surrounding the fortress. He knew that in order to conquer it, he must first deactivate that impenetrable barrier protecting them.
"It's now or never," Lu Ming thought as he turned to his generals. "Draconian Priest, **Eternal Shadow**," he called out, drawing the attention of the two spiritual leaders. Both draconian priests approached, bowing their heads slightly in respect.
"You will lead an infiltration unit. We need to deactivate that barrier before we can launch a full assault. Understood?"
The **Draconian Priest**, a mystical being of enormous power, nodded with calm confidence. "Master, we will use dark magic combined with light magic to break the spell. But we must act quickly and precisely."
**Eternal Shadow**, the newly summoned priest, stepped in. "My lord, the fortress is protected by more than just a spell. We must be prepared to face elemental guardians and possibly their Elven Archmage."
Lu Ming nodded. "I know. That is why I trust you. Choose the **Super Draconian Soldiers** to accompany you. Be quick and stealthy. In the meantime, we will advance at a slow pace to give you time. But if you fail to deactivate the barrier when we arrive… we will risk an ambush."
The two draconian priests turned to select the elite soldiers. Within a few minutes, a small group was ready to depart. With one last glance at Lu Ming, the team charged into the shadows, quickly heading towards the fortress.

The path to the fortress was dangerous. Magic traps were scattered across the ground, ready to be triggered at the slightest misstep. However, the infiltration team advanced with agility and dexterity. The **Super Draconic Soldiers**, with their heightened senses and enhanced reflexes, avoided each trap with precise movements.
Within the fortress, the atmosphere was charged with palpable tension. As they went deeper, the temperature began to fluctuate. **Eternal Shadow** raised his hand, signaling a pause.
"Elemental Guardians," he whispered. "They are coming."
An instant later, the ground shook as an **Earth Guardian** emerged from the ground, its body composed of rock and intertwined roots. Beside him, a **Fire Guardian** appeared in a burst of flames, its ethereal form burning with scorching heat.
"To arms!" the **Draconic Priest** ordered.
The Draconic Super Soldiers charged into the attack. Swords flashed with magic as they cut through the air, engaging the guardians. **Eternal Shadow** began to cast a spell, channeling both dark and light magic into a single point.
The fight was brutal and fast. The **Fire Guardian** released a torrent of flames that incinerated the ground, but the draconic soldiers, with their superior skills, dodged it with ease. The slower but imposing **Earth Guardian** struck the ground with devastating force, attempting to crush the intruders.
With a precise movement, **Eternal Shadow** cast his spell, a bolt of dark energy that struck the **Fire Guardian**, destabilizing it. At the same time, the **Draconic Priest** conjured a spell of light that pierced through the **Earth Guardian**, weakening its rocky structure.
In a coordinated movement, the draconic soldiers attacked, destroying both guardians almost simultaneously. The battle was quick, but every second was crucial.
"Come forward, we are near the core of the barrier," the **Draconic Priest** said. "But do not let your guard down. We have not yet seen the Archmage."
As if in response to his statement, a cold laugh rang through the air. A slender figure emerged from the shadows, robes shining with arcane runes. It was the **Elven Archmage**, a being known for his mastery of magic and his cruelty.
"Did you think you could break through our defense so easily?" the Archmage said, raising a hand. The air around him became charged with electricity, and a storm of lightning began to form above his head. "You are going to find out how wrong you are."
The battle against the Archmage was intense. Lightning fell from the sky, accurately striking the draconian soldiers who tried to get close. **Eternal Shadow** and the **Draconian Priest** combined their forces, casting spells that countered the Archmage's magic, but he moved with agility, dodging and launching devastating attacks.
"Now!" the **Priest shouted.Draconic Priest**. **Eternal Shadow** channeled all of his power into a shadow spell while the **Draconic Priest** released a beam of purifying light. The combination of both energies collided with the Archmage, breaking his concentration and weakening his defense.
Taking advantage of the moment of weakness, the **Super Draconic Soldiers** pounced on him, attacking with renewed ferocity. Finally, after a final concerted effort, the Archmage fell, his body collapsing under the combined pressure of the attacks.
"Quick! Let's deactivate the barrier before reinforcements arrive," **Eternal Shadow** urged.
They approached the core of the barrier, and with a final magical effort, they deactivated the protective spell surrounding the fortress.

In the distance, Lu Ming watched as the magical barrier faded away, leaving the fortress vulnerable.
"Perfect," he muttered, flashing a ferocious smile. "Now, we attack!"
As his army prepared to launch the final assault, he knew that the fortress would soon fall under his control, marking a turning point in the war.
The real battle was about to begin.
