Ashen Dragon-Chapter 1235 - 375: Frenzied Cultists

"Boom!"

In an instant, the energy beam that descended from the sky exploded, tearing through the hard scales of the Chromatic Dragon Beasts, creating countless gruesome scars on their massive bodies.

However, the Chromatic Dragon Beast was not to be outdone, raising its head high and opening its gaping maw to release a terrifying Dragon Breath capable of destroying everything, causing a Sky Battleship that had not yet activated its Force Field to explode on the spot, trailing smoke as it plummeted to the ground.

"Maintain the Protective Field!"

"Be careful! They have extremely strong long-range attack capabilities! Please activate Level Three Protective Interception System!"

Translucent barriers appeared in the sky, shimmering with a faint blue light, resisting the Breath of the Chromatic Dragon Beast. The Sky Battleship also continuously unleashed beams in retaliation.

In mid-air, beams intersected with Dragon Breath flying around. Everywhere was filled with powerful explosions, and the giant Chromatic Dragon Beasts, Steam Tanks, and Arcane Armor rampaged on the ground, where any carelessness could cost a mortal their life.

The worst situation was at the western defensive line held by the Seleucid troops. Under the assault of the Chromatic Dragon Beast, the Heavy Infantry wielding Spears and Giant Shields were like fragile live targets, only able to wail in the endless Lightning, Frost, and Flame, gradually collapsing.

Several exceptionally large Chromatic Dragon Beast offspring rampaged across the battlefield, bearing the Seleucid people’s torrent of arrows as they charged forward relentlessly, causing the earth to tremble.

The crowd was in panic, and the Seleucid troop’s morale was in chaos, with chaotic screams, cries, and wails filling the defensive line.

"Watch out! They, they are coming!"

"Run!"

"By Amanata, it’s like a mountain!"

"Hold on! This is the final war, kill these evil offspring of the Dragon Queen, and we can reclaim our homeland and bring peace to our fallen kin and comrades!"

"Look! They’re coming!"

"Roar—"

Four Chromatic Dragon Beasts let out angry roars, moving their sturdy limbs, accompanied by swirling smoke and dust, crushing everything with astonishing momentum, turning countless Heavy Infantry into meat patties mixed with fragments of armor.

The Seleucid soldiers fought back desperately, continuously firing arrows, swinging Longswords, and thrusting Spears, yet they could not break through the thick Scale Armor.

As the ultimate biological weapon created by the Dragon Worship Church for war, blessed by Tiamat, the ordinary soldiers could not penetrate the Chromatic Dragon Beast’s defenses and would die under their hideous and terrifying bodies.

"Ah!"

"We are just mortals, without those odd creations of the Imperial People, how can flesh and blood resist such monsters!"

"Help!"

"Great Lord of Eternal Radiance!"

The Seleucid positions were filled with wailing, flesh and blood flying everywhere, and these soldiers were heading towards collapse amidst continuous casualties.

Yet at this moment, a golden Light Blade shot from afar, slicing open the thick Scale Armor of a Chromatic Dragon Beast, causing blood to gush out, and the giant beast let out a painful and furious howl.

The soldiers looked up in surprise, seeing a figure cloaked in golden radiance, with wings spread, sweeping through the sky—Duke Adrian, the leader of the provisional government of Seleucis.

Behind him were hundreds of blurred figures shrouded in golden light, holding various weapons and exuding a holy and noble aura, like a group of angels descending from Eternal Heaven.

They were the faithful followers of Amanata and the only remaining Divine Descendant Warriors of Seleucis, gathered here to reclaim the capital of the Kingdom of Seleucis, to storm the Dragon Worship Church’s last fortress, avenge their deceased kin, friends—countless innocent Seleucid people.

"For Amanata!" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"For Holy Fadlan!"

Adrian raised his Longsword high and let out a spirited battle cry, and the hundreds of Divine Descendant Warriors descended from the sky, charging towards the Chromatic Dragon Beasts one after another.

In an instant, golden light filled the sky, intermingled with brilliant flames and thunder, as these hundreds of Divine Descendant Warriors surrounded the four Chromatic Dragon Beasts that had breached the defensive line.

"Let’s go!"

"The evil offspring of the Dragon Queen cannot defeat the warriors chosen by the Sun God!"

"Charge, for the Kingdom of Seleucis! For Holy Fadlan!"

And at once, the ordinary Seleucid soldiers were also greatly encouraged, seemingly overcoming their fear, they followed the miraculous radiance, surging towards the hideous and terrifying Dragon Beasts.

The two sides tangled in a mass, the intense aftermath of the battle stirred up a storm mixed with sand and stones, obscuring the scene, yet the chaotic battle cries of soldiers, the howls of giant beasts, and the booming of explosions could be heard...

And on this vast battlefield, just these fewer than a hundred Chromatic Dragon Beasts were able to hold off the Allied Forces’ million-strong army, forming a stalemate.

Felipe leapt down from the city wall, yet a strangely massive Wyvern composite with a wingspan of nearly a hundred meters swooped close to the ground with a howling Gale, casting a terrifying shadow on the earth, and caught him steadily.

The Dragon Worship Pope stood on the towering spine of the giant Wyvern, spreading his arms, raising the Calamity Staff, and laughing loudly in the sky: "Remnants of the old era, relish this brief moment of life, tremble under the strength of Tiamat—the new world is about to arrive!"

Centered on his Calamity Staff, an inky black wave of light suddenly spread out, forming a turbulent Divine Power storm, engulfing an area of hundreds within its scope.
