Chapter 423: 441 Pincer Attack_1
Now, the area around Purgatory City has almost completely become a forbidden zone for life, but for some special creatures, it is an exception.
A large number of black iron dwarves and kobolds have arrived in Purgatory City through various channels, as construction workers summoned by Sofia.
One of the reasons why Otto decided to level all the buildings on Stania was because of Sofia’s input.
Stania Floating City was high above, and to make things convenient, Sofia established linked teleportation gates between Stania and Purgatory City.
This was the only way for black iron dwarves and kobolds to enter Stania.
The underground tunnels beneath Purgatory City had already been dug through, and although there hadn’t been time to construct railways yet, a steady stream of carts and burrowing worms brought piles of materials to Purgatory City.
Next, they were transported to Stania by black iron dwarves and kobolds through the teleportation gates.
Since some of the stones were too large to pass through the teleportation gate, the value of the undead dragons was demonstrated at this point.
Although they were extremely unwilling, under Otto’s urging, Frostfire and the other undead dragons reluctantly acted as porters once again.
Although the spells Sofia mastered were very convenient for construction, her pitiful magic reserves limited her personal efforts, and doing everything herself would take a considerable amount of time.
Moreover, Stania covered a much larger area than the Land of the Soaring Dragon, and the construction process would not be completed in just a few years.
So aside from a few particularly difficult areas, the majority of the construction sites were still filled with black iron dwarves and kobolds.
With their extensive resources, many tasks no longer required Sofia’s personal involvement. As long as she provided accurate blueprints, skilled craftsmen would naturally fulfill her requirements.
After arranging many tasks, Sofia took some time to check on Otto.
In addition to the Silver Dragon Otto transformed into an undead dragon, she also visited Black Dragon Otto.
At this point, Black Dragon Otto had already completely devoured Stania using his absorption ability, which meant that he now had control over the entire floating city.
However, at the same time, because he had absorbed the Master of Magic, Black Dragon Otto had entered a deep sleep.
Previously, his limbs had spread throughout various corners of Stania like the roots of a tree, so he didn’t have the time to change his sleeping position due to extreme tiredness in the short run.
As a result, Black Dragon Otto was now asleep in an awkward, and comical position, like a koala hugging Stania tightly.
Before falling asleep, Black Dragon Otto greeted Silver Dragon Otto, explaining that this time, due to the excessive quantity and quality of the objects he devoured, he didn’t know how long he would sleep.
Because of the special nature of Stania Floating City and the Master of Magic, Otto was also concerned about the possibility of accidents while he slept. So, until Black Dragon Otto woke up, Silver Dragon Otto would continue to maintain his undead dragon form and guard the surroundings.
As time went on, the sky gradually darkened, but even after a day of hard work, Sofia was still full of energy, flying above Stania, directing black iron dwarves and kobolds in their labor.
Purgatory City was bustling with activity in preparation for the reconstruction of Stania, and it seemed that the border of Dragon Bone Wasteland was also equally lively.
In addition to Stania Floating City, the Western Empire had also dispatched a large-scale force to the ground battlefield this time.
The thriving Western Empire directly sent an army of 100,000 soldiers to Dragon Bone Wasteland. This force was primarily infantry, and their marching speed was naturally far behind that of Stania.Until now, they had just left the Nord border and were about to enter the Dragon Bone Wasteland.
According to the original plan, the task of this ground force was to clean up and clear out all the evil creatures in the Dragon Bone Wasteland after Stania Floating City had killed the Black Dragon and destroyed Purgatory City.
However, plans can’t keep up with changes, and Stania should have completed the task by now.
Just as this Western Empire army prepared to march into the Dragon Bone Wasteland to begin the cleanup operation, they discovered a monster army had already been waiting for them in the direction of the wasteland.
Ogres, Minotaurs, and even Chimeras – all kinds of monsters that were not commonly seen in the Dragon Bone Wasteland were gathered in abundance.
It was not difficult to see that these monsters did not come here for sightseeing.
Although the monstrous creatures on the other side looked terrifying, this Western Empire army was elite and naturally not easily scared.
The lavishly armored general rode a tall horse and delivered a passionate speech in front of the army, boosting the morale of the soldiers to its highest point.
“Clang… Clang…”
The neatly arranged heavy-armored infantrymen tapped their diamond-shaped shields with the hilts of their swords, while the long spear-men on the side struck the ground with the butts of their spears, producing a series of crisp sounds.
Advent, riding on a warhorse, raised his long sword towards the Dragon Bone Wasteland and shouted, “Brave and fearless warriors, raise your weapons and show those filthy, ugly monsters the iron flood of the Empire!”
“Roar!”
“For the Empire!”
Similar responses nearly broke the sky, and just as the Western Empire army was about to charge at the monsters in the Dragon Bone Wasteland, chaotic noises and horn sounds came from behind them.
“Hum… Hum…”
Looking in the direction of the horn sounds, a large group of Nords with vicious smiles on their faces had arrived at the rear of the Western Empire army.
Although the Nords were still allies of the Western Empire on the surface, the expressions on these bearded men’s faces seemed to suggest that the situation was not quite the same.
Rolf, carrying a long-handled battle axe and with his upper body exposed, stood at the very front of the Nord formation, sneering at the Western Empire soldiers ahead and raising his battle axe.
“People of Nord, for the glory of our ancestors! RUA!!!”
Rolf didn’t even give the Western Empire a chance to communicate. Soon after appearing, he raised his chipped axe blade and charged straight at the rear of the Western Empire formation.
Intense flames enveloped his battle axe, and as Rolf swung it upward, the roaring flames formed a crescent shape in the sky.
This was the signal Rolf sent out.
In the direction of the Dragon Bone Wasteland, a strong goblin riding on a warg saw the flame in the sky and nodded.
Afterward, he raised his right hand, and at his command, the monster army, not much smaller in number than the Western Empire soldiers, rushed forward with grotesque screams.
