Chapter 241 Super Exhilarating Four-Armed Overlord State, Powerful! Dominant! Strong! (Super Climax Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)
As the last vestiges of night disappeared into the distant horizon, dawn replaced the darkness, casting its beautiful light upon the earth. The human tribe known as Dawn, however, had endured a terrible night.
The ancestral altar, which served as a spiritual symbol, was destroyed.
Black Stone Pass was subsequently captured as well.
After that, the true legion of the Ironforge swept through the enemy lines like a sharp knife, advancing northward. This time, the force was no longer primarily composed of cannon fodder such as gnolls, kobolds, and war lizardmen.
Elite forces including ogres, centaurs, and wyverns.
The tamed wild monster lord.
There were also goblins who originally belonged to the Golden Tooth tribe but have now submitted, manipulating powerful golems to fight alongside monsters. A torrent of flesh and steel advanced inch by inch, trampling on the territory belonging to the Dawn tribe.
Although it wasn't the orcs of the Ironblood Tribe's turn yet, the orcs felt the danger of losing their own forces and kept sending reinforcements.
The combined forces of humans and orcs are stronger than the Ironforge army.
The Molten Iron Army mainly relies on its lower-ranking members to wear down the legions of the two major tribes. However, the strongest force of the Molten Iron Tribe is not its troops, but several dragons with flying abilities that can freely traverse the sky, quickly behead the high-ranking members of Ironblood and Dawn, and destroy their important strongholds.
Whenever the two sides' troops are engaged in fierce fighting.
The dragons would then set off, splitting into two groups. Once they locked onto their targets, they would launch lightning-fast raids, moving between multiple strategic points in a single day, leaving the two tribes overwhelmed, disorganized, and in turmoil.
In such a backward place as the border region, the noble flight units are just so unreasonable.
The most powerful Red Iron Dragon, in particular, possesses terrifying mobility and is virtually impossible to defend against.
Even a multi-dragon team consisting of Red Dragon, Iron Dragon, and White Dragon cannot exert as much pressure as him alone as a single dragon.
Whenever that majestic dragon body tears open the sky, its wings flapping and emitting a sharp, piercing whistle like thousands of blades being drawn from their sheaths, or a continuous, thunderous roar, all humans and orcs who hear this sound are terrified and their morale collapses.
because.
This sound means death, it means destruction.
As the war continued to rage, Brunhilde and Ugosh repeatedly tried to take action against the Red Iron Dragon, wanting a battle between kings.
but.
Red Iron Dragon, however, adhered to the principle of "no kings meet kings" and "decapitating those below him who are above him." Despite his immense power, he never made contact with the two tribal leaders, always fighting swiftly and decisively before leaving without any lingering.
Because they were slower, by the time the tribal chief arrived, the place attacked by the Red Iron Dragon had already been reduced to scorched earth, with corpses strewn everywhere.
They tried to fight back, but they were always a step behind Hong Tielong.
For example, right now.
With a terrifying shriek and roar, the Red Iron Dragon descended from the sky like a meteorite piercing the earth, destroying the human outposts located in the hills, and then unhesitatingly activated its berserk state and began to slaughter.
In less than three minutes.
All the guards at the outpost were killed, including a barbarian chieftain of considerable rank. His life force was incredibly tenacious in his berserk state, and he survived for a full minute under Garoth's claws before finally succumbing.
"Battles like this are still the most relaxing and enjoyable."
The red iron dragon shook its head, gathering the golden lightning that danced on its body. It strolled leisurely among the flames and scorched earth before soaring into the sky.
Fighting enemies of the same or higher level has never been something Galos truly enjoys.
He prefers 'higher-level' combat that is backward compatible.
You can easily defeat weaker opponents by frying fish and crushing them, sweeping away all enemies without any risk.
"coward!"
"Bastard!"
Brunhilde and Gerwush's roars rose from the ground, soaring into the sky and reaching Garoth's ears.
Galos glanced down and saw the two tribal leaders running wildly across the land, billowing dust behind them, their legs becoming afterimages. However, the time from receiving the message to arriving at their destination was enough for Galos to finish the battle, yet they still arrived a step too late.
He glanced at both of them calmly.
Red Iron Dragon dismissed the matter and returned to Dragon Valley to recuperate.
Just in case, the naturally cautious Garus always pauses his raids to decapitate targets when he runs out of Cold Scales or when his stamina is below 70%, and waits until he recovers before launching another attack.
He was far too cautious.
There is black oil, as well as high-energy potions obtained through trade.
With no serious injuries, he recovered extremely quickly, and his repeated attacks dealt a heavy blow to both humans and orcs. Half of the achievements of the Ironforge were due to Garos.
Amidst the clamor of war, time quietly slipped by.
The Ironforge's army ravaged the north, and together with the dragon horde, they pressed forward step by step, squeezing the Dawn Tribe's living space and gradually tilting the balance of power.
Meanwhile, in a makeshift camp.
Brunhilde, Ugosh, and many high-ranking leaders from both the human and orc sides gathered here to discuss their next move.
"This can't go on any longer."
"That red iron dragon was too cautious and never made direct contact with us, but it was also too fast, and we couldn't keep up with its pace."
Brunhilde said in a deep voice, "If we continue to fight at his pace, we won't last long before we are completely defeated."
Gwish nodded emphatically: "The Red Iron Bastard is the core of the Ironforge. Kill him first, leave the group leaderless, and only then will we have a chance to win!"
The Dawn Tribe suffered the most severe losses.
However, many of the orc forces were also destroyed.
Moreover, they were well aware that the Red Iron Dragon's goal was the entire border region, and he would never let the Ironblood Tribe's orcs go. Under the pressure of a powerful enemy, the alliance between humans and orcs reached its tightest point at this moment.
"Fight back according to our previous plan."
Brunhilde's face was serious: "We must kill the Red Iron Dragon in one fell swoop. In this war, it's either him or us who perish!"
He asked the orc chieftain, "How are the preparations going?"
Ugosh turned his head and looked at a blind shaman with cloudy white eyes and a body covered in pustules.
Before the orc chieftain could speak, the blind shaman seemed to have sensed something.
He hunched over, coughed a few times, then wiped the murky blood from his mouth and said in a hoarse, broken voice, "Red Iron Dragon will launch a surprise attack on the Raging Waves River late tomorrow night."
With each word he spoke, his body hunched over more, and the wrinkles on his face increased at a visible rate.
The already waning life force rapidly weakened, becoming like a candle flickering in the wind.
After uttering the last few words, he staggered, then suddenly trembled all over. He mumbled a few unclear words with difficulty before fainting on the spot. He was only able to stay upright by the support of the orc beside him.
This prophet shaman held a position in the orc tribe equivalent to that of Leoni, the ancestral shaman who was killed by Garros.
He originally had more than ten years to live, but because he made a prophecy about Galus and leaked it, he immediately suffered a severe backlash, and it is hard to say whether he will have another year to live.
“Take the prophet to rest.”
Ugosh said in a deep voice, "Having paid such a high price, we must kill that Red Iron bastard no matter what! I will use his life and blood to pay tribute to the fallen warriors!"
Brunhilde sneered, "With the Red Iron Dragon launching such high-intensity and high-frequency attacks, even a dragon's physique would inevitably be worn down. We should wait in ambush and surround him, and he will surely perish in the Raging River!"
Immediately following, under the will of the two tribal leaders, a series of orders were swiftly issued from here.
Almost all the high-ranking leaders and elite troops of the Dawn Tribe and the Ironblood Tribe were drawn from their various strongholds overnight and, under the cover of spells cast by warlocks and shamans, headed toward the Raging Waves River outpost.
This also includes Brunhilde and Ugosh.
Time passed slowly and steadily, just over a day, which was too short. Although the Ironclad Army sensed that the Allied Forces' strength had weakened, they did not realize any obvious abnormality.
In Dragon Valley, the setting sun casts its rays upon the central lake, creating shimmering ripples as a gentle breeze stirs the water.
Galus spread his wings, producing a faint metallic clang.
He could clearly perceive the sharpness of the edge of each cold-burst scale, and the slight tremor of each muscle fiber gathering power—at its peak, like a fully drawn bow.
At this moment, Hong Tielong's spirit and body had both recovered to their peak limits.
The combat level has also broken through the limit due to the fierce battles these days, officially reaching level 4.
"Next target. The Dawn Tribe is retreating and is nearing its limit."
"Cut off their retreat first and wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Galos carefully considered the strategic locations within the Dawn Tribe's territory and finally decided on the Raging River.
This is a large river that meanders north of the border. Its waters are swift and flow year-round. It originates from the ice field further north. The water is icy cold, and crossing it directly is quite difficult. The Dawn Tribe has established outposts along the Raging Waves River and built bridges to facilitate crossing. Located in the rear of the Dawn Tribe, it is an important escape route.
"This is the place we've decided on."
With a flap of its wings, the red iron dragon soared into the sky and approached the raging river.
In order not to give the enemy a chance to react and prepare defenses in advance, Galos did not rush at full speed when approaching midway. He did not make any noise when flapping his wings. He approached slowly and quietly, and then suddenly took off when he was close to his destination.
Dusk was quickly replaced by night.
Two moons hung high in the sky as night deepened.
The Nutao River flows north of the border area.
The river churned like a furious silver dragon under the moonlight, its turbid waters carrying the chill of the icy plains, crashing against the banks with the force to shatter mountains and split rocks. The spray that filled the sky shattered into a cold mist in the night wind, enveloping the entire riverbank in a bone-chilling dampness.
That massive ironwood bridge spanning the raging river.
The thick ironwood was riveted together using a secret method and wrapped with chains engraved with water-repelling runes, making a clanging sound.
With campfires blazing on both sides, the Dawn Tribe's sentry guards did not sleep in the dead of night, taking turns patrolling.
Garus hovered thousands of meters in the air, took a deep breath, and then dark red flames surged from the tips of his dragon wings. He then pierced the night sky like a meteorite, falling straight towards the Ironwood Bridge.
Boom—!!
The massive ironwood bridge was shattered, with countless splashes of water and white waves surging and sweeping towards the sentry posts on both sides.
The red iron dragon's first attack destroyed the bridge.
He spread his wings, and his strong body emerged from the water.
However, the expected panic and disarray did not occur.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
A deafening roar suddenly erupted, a primal war cry that resonated with rage and bloodlust from hundreds of throats, instantly boiling the entire Raging River.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Three beams of dark blue light, each over ten feet in diameter, erupted in a triangular formation from the cliff on the left side of the riverbank, the dense forest on the right side, and the base of the bridge pier.
The pillar of light was not pure energy, but was tightly woven from countless rapidly spinning, ancient runes as fine as mosquitoes. They shot straight into the sky, emitting even more light, and connected to form a huge magic circle centered on the red iron dragon. Then they were imprinted on the sky and the earth and disappeared.
In an instant.
The wind element energy in the air was almost completely dissipated, and a strong supergravity effect was generated from the earth.
Garus felt his body sink, and he found it difficult to control the wind elemental energy as he flapped his wings.
It was clearly a dual anti-air formation that simultaneously targeted both dragon-type magical skills and heavy physical bodies.
"Evil dragon, you will perish here tonight!"
Brunhilde's roar rolled across the river like thunder, and the leader of the Dawn Tribe appeared, as if an ancient war god had been resurrected from a mural. On his bare, bronze-colored torso, layers of ancestral totems flowed and breathed like living things on his muscular body, and a double-bladed runic axe the size of a door pointed diagonally at the earth.
Behind him, the elite of the Dawn Tribe stood solemnly, their killing intent as solid as ice needles filling the night sky.
At the same time, the dense forest on the opposite bank exploded with a deafening roar.
"For the glory of iron and blood!"
Ugosh's roar carried a foul wind, and the phantom of the savage bear's soul solidified behind him into a gigantic, semi-transparent colossus. The colossus pounded its chest to the sky, and the invisible shockwave caused a ring of water to erupt from the river's surface.
With earth-shaking footsteps, the Ironblood Orcs surged out like a tidal wave.
Their upper bodies were covered only with simple bone armor, their skin branded with various totems, and their eyes were fixed on the red iron dragon like those of wild beasts.
"An ambush? This setup is definitely not something that was hastily prepared."
Galos frowned. "How did they know I was going to attack Raging Tides?"
The decision to attack the Raging River was made on short notice, and there was no possibility of betrayal from within.
"It's some kind of magical technique, most likely a divination spell."
After much thought, Red Iron Dragon's gaze fell on the warlocks and shamans who emerged from the shadows alongside the barbarian warriors.
"This ambush was impossible to defend against; we really shouldn't underestimate the methods of other intelligent beings."
Galos's brows relaxed, his gaze was cautious, but there was no fear or panic: "Fortunately, I have always been cautious, and I am always in peak condition when I go out to attack, and I also bring the Gladiator Array Disk."
He can use the Gladiator's Array to pull someone in, kill them, and then use its spatial teleportation effect to escape the battle.
However, Galos was unwilling to use such a precious item as the Gladiator Array Disk, which could only be used once, here; it was best to use it only when absolutely necessary.
Unlike the roaring, howling savages.
Red Iron Dragon's expression was calm, his eyes revealing a rational and composed light. Compared to him, those humanoid creatures were more like wild beasts.
He flapped his wings, sensing the strength of the anti-flight array.
The red iron dragon slowly rose into the air.
"Steep him out!"
"Break off this bastard's wings first!"
Ugosh let out a low growl, and the steel gauntlets covering his face clashed violently, sparks flying everywhere. The Soul of the Wild Bear roared to the sky, leaping suddenly to approach the Red Iron Dragon. His giant energy palm tore through the air and slammed down on the base of Garros's dragon wings, with a horde of elite orcs following closely behind.
The warlocks and shamans standing at the back formed hand seals, their fingertips drawing upon a chilling current.
Ice cone cold wave!
Thousands of prismatic ice cones materialized out of thin air, each core compressed with a blinding blue light, tearing through the air with a shrill shriek, raining down on the dragon's eyes, the junction of its wing membranes, its reproductive cavity, and the gaps in its scales—the most fatal weak points of all dragons.
Galos's vertical pupils contracted, and he focused his mind.
Spin!
Iron Tail transformed into a blur that tore through the air, sweeping across with the force of ten thousand tons, shattering the ice cones into a sky full of ice crystal fragments. Its speed did not decrease, and it clashed with the giant paw of the Savage Bear Soul, shattering its hand.
Brunhilde simultaneously entered a berserk state, charging forward as if ignoring spatial distance.
His massive axe, trailing a cold gleam, was raised high, its blade striking precisely Galos's right shoulder blade, exposed by the sweeping motion of his tail.
clang!
A deep crack appeared at the landing point, and a chill suddenly emanated from it, causing Brunhilde to freeze in place. She looked up and saw the giant claw of the red iron dragon sweeping towards her.
"kill!"
Ugosh's roar was like thunder.
The giant paw of the savage bear's soul had healed at some point and struck again, carrying a tremendous power capable of splitting mountains and shattering peaks, forcefully blocking the dragon's claw counterattack.
Brunhilde seized the opportunity, swung her giant axe upwards, and struck the red iron dragon's arm.
At the same time, the elite humans and orcs rushed over, but the rushing, icy water posed no obstacle to them.
Led by Brunhilde and Ugosh, a horde of elite barbarians and warriors surrounded the Red Iron Dragon and launched a fierce attack on him, while shamans and warlocks harassed and distracted him from the rear with ranged spells.
Giant axe, warhammer, flail.
Various weapons attacked from almost all directions, slamming into the red iron dragon with clanging sounds and sparks flying, leaving his black and silver dragon scales cracked and dented.
Red Iron Dragons' counterattack was equally fierce.
The Dragon Claw combo knocked Brunhilde and Gewush back at the same time.
Tear!
The tail blade cleaved the three orcs, along with their weapons and bodies, in two. Then, with a turn of its body, its massive wings unleashed a series of spinning slashes, slaying all the elites within range who had not yet been able to retreat.
A berserker leaped up, attempting to attack from above.
laugh!
Red Iron Dragon's right wing deftly swung upwards, the spear-like protrusion at the wingtip piercing through the berserker, then with a flick and a slash, splitting him in two.
His claws, dragon tail, and wings were all like deadly weapons.
The relentless claw strikes, tail sweeps, wing slashes, and thrusts were too much for even the elites of the two tribes to withstand. A mere graze would injure them, and a direct hit would kill them. Blood and severed limbs instantly stained the Raging River red.
Moreover, despite being a fire-type hybrid dragon, a strong chill emanated from the Red Iron Dragon's body.
The surrounding river water was frozen and crushed, and the barbarians' movements were sluggish due to the cold air, often making it difficult for them to react to the red iron dragon's attacks, and they were killed in an instant.
However, the heavy price paid by both humans and orcs also yielded results.
Their relentless attacks left more and more scars on Red Iron Dragon's body.
Brunhilde's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and the totems all over her body lit up as if they were burning.
He used his waist and abdomen as the core of his power, his body spinning rapidly like a top. The giant axe stirred up a whirlwind that tore through the air, carrying the fighting spirit inherited from his ancient ancestors, and slashed towards the neck of the red iron dragon.
This attack was exceptionally fierce. Galos did not take it head-on, but instead dodged to the side while enduring the attacks from the other minions.
"Now!"
Ugosh seized the opportunity with his Iron Fist, the power of the Bear Soul concentrated in his fist, and slammed it hard into Garos's relatively soft side.
Thump!
Like a heavy hammer striking an anvil!
The massive body of the Red Iron Dragon was blasted backward for the first time, and then Brunhilde's whirlwind slash struck its body. As sparks flew, even some of its underlying scales shattered, and blood flowed out.
"The dragon cub is bleeding! He's dying!"
The savages, witnessing this scene, roared madly, their bloodthirsty excitement igniting in every pair of eyes.
The elite troops of both tribes have suffered heavy casualties, but the barbarians fight fearlessly, their minds dominated by rage.
boom!
Red Iron Dragon's counterattack sent the two tribal leaders flying, and the other barbarians surrounded him at the same time.
However, as soon as Brunhilde landed, she felt a chill run down her spine.
In order to maintain control of the battle and prevent himself from losing control of the enemy, he, like Ugosh, did not fully enter his berserk state and still retained a degree of rationality.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
Brunhilde and Ugosh roared at the same time.
However, the barbarians, who had lost their minds, disobeyed their leader's orders and, blinded by rage, continued to charge at the red iron dragon.
"Insects, turn to dust!"
Hong Tielong suddenly took a deep breath.
In an instant, high-temperature steam, as if molten gold and iron, suddenly erupted from the gaps in his scales, instantly melting all the weapon fragments embedded in flesh and attached to the dragon scales.
The glow, like a red-hot branding iron, instantly covered every dragon scale.
Terrifyingly high temperatures erupted from the cracks, scorching and distorting the surrounding air.
Thermal Enhancement - Destructive Dragon Breath!
call!
Countless rivers evaporated instantly, and flames that destroyed everything were spewed from the mouth of the red iron dragon. As it turned its neck, the flames swept across and engulfed the elite humans and orcs.
Upon seeing this, Brunhilde and Gerush's eyes instantly turned red.
In an instant, both of them entered a state of complete rage and berserk frenzy, gaining terrifying power at the cost of their reason.
"Ancestor - War Body!"
Brunhilde let out a shrill howl like a dying beast.
The totems on his face and body burst into flames like boiling oil, and the ancestral war spirits, condensed to a tangible form, instantly broke out of his body and completely merged with him.
His body did not change significantly, but his aura surged, and many different qualities appeared on his body at the same time.
Ugosh roared as well, and the phantoms of three totem beasts—a savage bear, a giant wolf, and a hawk—appeared around him, attaching themselves to his body and making him as strong as a savage bear, as agile as a giant wolf, and able to soar through the sky like a hawk.
However, they are not the only ones with two phases.
Red Iron Dragon flapped its wings and burst out of the dense white vapor formed by the evaporation of the river water, its body already wrapped in flying golden lightning.
Not only that, a sound like thunder, drumming, and an engine kept resounding in his chest, and spiderweb-like blood-red patterns appeared on his dragon scales centered on his heart.
Barbarians are incredibly resilient.
In their furious and berserk state, they fight recklessly, like madmen.
The battle with them could not be delayed, so Garos activated both Frenzy and Blood Explosion simultaneously.
Although the Blood Explosion Technique doesn't provide a significant boost to him now because he hasn't evolved into a true Blood Explosion form, it still makes his attributes a bit stronger.
The water surface was separated by wind pressure.
The red iron dragon instantly appeared in front of Brunhilde and brought down a claw.
Clang—Boom! B ...
Brunhilde's weapon was knocked away in an instant.
He roared furiously, his eyes bloodshot, and used his arms to support the giant claws of the red iron dragon.
Under Garros's terrifying power, the muscles in his arms spasmed violently, his arm bones emitted a heart-wrenching groan of cracking, and the totem light on his body shattered layer by layer.
Even the most enraged and ferocious barbarians cannot contend with dragons in a direct confrontation.
The red iron dragon charged out of the Raging River, crushing many warlocks and shamans who couldn't dodge in time. As its claws contracted, it gradually crushed the tattoos on the ancestral guardian's body.
Suddenly, tattoos began to swell and detach from the body.
They were formless and intangible, yet possessed immense power, extending onto the Red Iron Dragon and creating a strong binding and solidifying effect, causing the Red Iron Dragon's movements to falter.
at the same time.
Ugosh let out overlapping roars and howls of beasts, soaring and darting like an eagle, rapidly approaching Garus's back.
"die!"
The three totems coalesced on his right arm, the orc's face contorted in a ferocious grimace, and this most powerful strike aimed at the back of Garros's head.
His body was bound by Brunhilde's ancestral tattoo, because this thing was not just a physical constraint; even the Red Iron Dragon's strength was difficult to break free from in an instant.
However, when he felt the gust of wind coming from the back of his head, he did not panic.
It was only because when he broke through the dragon energy barrier that he chose to focus on the advancement path for the time being—Star My Martial Dragon!
Level 4 Dragon Qi Circulation!
Dragon energy transforms into an arm!
Two terrifying dragon arms, invisible to the naked eye but clearly observable by anyone with an energy field of vision, materialized and extended from behind Garros's shoulder blades.
The dragon's claws were sharp and ferocious.
Each of the sharply textured, black and red dragon scales has a texture as sharp as steel.
Because it was formed from the dragon energy representing Galos's own life and magical power, its thickness and strength were no different from his own arm.
It is not connected to the body by flesh and blood, making it more flexible. Moreover, it is influenced by thought and moves with the mind, unaffected by the body's condition.
laugh!
As the attack drew near, Ugosh was caught off guard and his body was slammed hard by the black and red dragon's arm, sending him flying into the sky like a ball.
The two thick, black and red dragon arms shifted their direction and locked onto Brunhilde, who was struggling to hold on.
Boom!
The air was suddenly torn apart as a fierce and violent attack landed on Brunhilde, instantly ripping and piercing through the layers of tattoos on his body, and the binding tattoos on the red iron dragon's body were also broken.
Boom boom boom boom!
Red Iron Dragon's strong body covered Brunhilde.
The four dragon arms bombarded the barbarian relentlessly, leaving behind a trail of afterimages as they rained down on him like a storm. As the ground beneath him continued to collapse and cave in, the layers of ancestral protective aura on the barbarian's body were quickly shattered. Then, even the barbarian's strong flesh and blood could not withstand the ferocious attack of the four-armed red iron dragons. Without the protection of his ancestors, he was instantly smashed to pieces.
call--!
Red Iron Dragon exhaled a breath of hot air and flapped its wings to burst out of the deep pit.
His battered and bruised body, marked by chisels and stabs, stood upright, suspended in mid-air, his thick, menacing arms slightly outstretched.
So powerful.
Who can defeat him?! Who can kill him?!
This terrifying scene of overwhelming power shocked the warlocks and shamans who possessed energy vision and could see the dragon's arm to the point of near mental collapse. They were so shocked that they couldn't even cast a single spell, their faces were covered in cold sweat, their minds were blank, and they simply watched as the Dawn Tribe leader was beaten to death by the Red Iron Dragon.
