Chapter 51: Echoes from the Ancient Times
As the thunder got closer, the soldiers began to feel the horror.
The thunder was mixed with breathtaking dominance, and the terrifying roar temporarily stopped the rat tide!
Urged on by the death knell, the Skaven continued to rush towards the battlefield with lingering panic.
In fear, the Skinks called out the holy name of Ichi, the Lord of Cold-blooded Beasts, and they found the source of the thunder from the depths of their memories.
The young dragon was restless and the memories inherited from ancient times were awakened.
It was a time when dragons flew freely in the sky, before the advent of the Old Ones, when gods walked the earth, and when barbarism ruled the planet.
But the planet does not belong to the dragon.
Countless mountain-like monsters galloped in the wilderness, competing with the ancestors of dragons for the hegemony of the planet! The towering ancient trees shook violently, and the sharp dorsal fins flashed through the treetops.
The earthquake became more and more severe, and huge trees tens of meters high fell down in large numbers.
Lynch shouted and led the soldiers to break out in the direction away from the shock.
No one wants to have their honorable life ended by a beast inexplicably, especially when it comes to a mission.
They couldn't die in a funny way before defeating the great enemy.
Fortunately, it's not just the Guardians, the minions of Chaos also don't want to stand there stupidly, waiting for the monsters to come.
When a huge monster as big as a hill poked out its lizard head bigger than a triceratops from the forest.
The warriors who were fighting and retreating have already hidden in the jungle, leaving behind only the helpless tide of rats and the Chaos Dragons fighting with giant eagles and pterosaurs in the sky.
The flying beasts rose up at the same time, moving away from the monster squatting on the ground.
Lynch turned around and looked at the source of the earthquake. It was a giant reptile that looked like a lizard, but it had abnormally strong limbs.
When it squats, it looks more like an ape.
Lynch tried hard to find any trace of civilization on the monster, but no, it was a wild lizard roaming in Lustria!
These rare beasts were supposed to be bound in ceremonial armor and imprisoned in the ancient Saint Ichi's giant temple deep in the jungle.
In its eyes, which were as big as those of humans, there was an indelible desire for destruction. The lizard proudly roared like thunder and pushed aside the ancient trees that blocked its way.
The demigod creatures in the forest wantonly indulge their savagery in the rat tide. Nothing can stop it. Even high-level gods and demons have to give it a wide berth.
The ancient dragons that could compete with it were sleeping, and the giant sea monsters were also hiding in the deep sea. This ancient beast that could easily destroy the legion was playing with the rats and giving them a bloody bath.
The bell still screams, but its sound is fading away.
The two sides in the deadly battle were distracted. No matter what their positions were, the warriors were nervously paying attention to the wild giant beast not far away.
"Ichi!"
"Stop hunting! My Father God! Reverend Kunos!"
"Blood sacrifice to the Blood God!"
The Chaos Lord in the sky roared to show his resolute devotion to the Blood God. He wanted to overcome the obstruction of the pterosaurs and giant eagles and use this behemoth to prove his bravery to the Blood God.
The lance in the Undefeated's hand turned into a spear of boiling magma, and on the Chaos Dragon, Tarofast stood in the heat and flames.
The Blood God's chosen champion was trapped by the strong wind and lightning summoned by the wizard, and his mount refused to obey the champion's crazy orders out of fear!
Not all Chaos Embraceers are like him, with only killing and destruction in their souls.
Perhaps it was because his cowardice in childhood was twisted into extreme toughness. After tasting the taste of killing for the first time, Tarofast forgot everything except the will of the Blood God.
Without the glory on the battlefield, he had nothing left.
Abandoned by the Blood God, he is nothing.
After venting its desire for destruction by using the rat tide, the lizard on the ground turned and left, showing no interest in the fighting parties at all.
The warriors once again turned their attention to each other, and some desperate ratmen rushed over, breaking the tacit understanding on the battlefield.
The ratmen had no respect for honor. Why would they fight the enemy head-on when they could defeat them from behind? The duel was disrupted by the roar of the Chaos Warriors.
In order to curb Lynch who was able to move freely in the Chaos army, the Chosen Ones gathered together and besieged this terrifying Lizard Man.
But Lynch's speed and strength far surpassed these blessed ones.
Just like every time the Chaos Warriors attacked in groups before, Lynch didn't even need to activate the arc of light from Kotego's Scepter. He slaughtered all the Chosen Ones with his own skills and strength.
Lynch was looking for his comrades, but all he could see were Chaos warriors.
The light of fire in the distance allowed his keen vision to catch a glimpse of the dragon's scaly claws.
The situation became increasingly unfavorable for the cold-blooded and Asur. The young Sun Dragon flapped its broken wings with all its might and spewed flames at the groups of predators.
However, due to its lack of mobility, it can only cover a small area of the battlefield, and the scorching dragon flame cannot take into account the overall situation.
The flames ignited the jungle and spread for miles before being extinguished by the strange activity of the rainforest.
Lynch fought his way towards the dragon, but only found a few Tritons gathered together.
This made Lynch worry about another possibility.
Perhaps only these warriors survived the death battle!
But no matter what, Lynch will continue to fight, even if he is the only one left.
In the west, in the bushes outside the battlefield, many shadowy figures flashed by.
A storm of javelins and poisonous needles flew over the dense vegetation towards the frenzied predator.
Chaos warriors fell in large numbers, and the noise was so loud that Lynch even noticed the abnormality on the west side of the battlefield.
Countless swift figures roamed behind the bushes, and when the Chaos Warriors turned around and rushed forward, a group of Red-Crowned Skin Lizards riding on velociraptors and wielding long sticks suddenly leaped out of cover.
These Skinks favored by Sotek have a bloodthirstiness far beyond that of ordinary Skinks.
They are the berserkers of the Serpent God Sotek! The Serpent God's poisonous kiss!
This jungle patrol roams outside of Itaza, launching a venomous and insidious offensive against the minions of Chaos.
Groups of Red-Crowned Skinks, with amazing courage and strength, attacked from behind and reaped countless demons and Norscans.
Lynch looked at the huge army entering the venue with excitement. Although there were no war beasts, the charge of tens of thousands of red-crowned lizards was enough to turn the tide of the battle.
A piece of tree trunk thrown onto the battlefield broke Lynch's thoughts.
In the dense forests of the south, just like the Chaos Warrior Legions that had walked out before, two huge torrents of Beastmen rushed towards the battlefield.
There were also a few giants mixed in, who broke off branches and threw them at the fighting warriors with brute force.
The Beastmen call upon the Dark Gods.
These upright goat-like monsters are loyal servants of the devil.
They are stronger than the beastmen of the old world. There are no skinny inferior horned beasts. They are all sturdy hoofed beasts! This is filth from the Antarctic wasteland! The call of the chosen champion on the Chaos Dragon confirmed this conjecture.
A torrent of horned beasts responded to the Chaos Lord's command.
The other one completely ignored the will of the Blood God Champion and just stayed where it was.
The shamans, surrounded by the beastmen, raised their staffs and guided the winds of magic, ready to use powerful spells to reverse the situation while the opponent's magician was concentrating on fighting the champion.
The moment the spell sounded, the Beastmen tribe dominated by the Chaos Lords, under the furious leadership of the Beast King, shouted "Blood sacrifice to the Blood God" and turned around to kill the "allies" who believed in the Lord of Change.
