As for Silide himself, most of his energy was focused on suppressing the lava dragon under him and constructing protective magic, and he could not spare too much energy to detect the attack that came from nowhere.
However, his underestimation of the enemy was obviously fatal. The fighter jet was flying at a speed of 360 kilometers per hour, as fast as a gust of wind. In the blink of an eye, it had crossed a distance of hundreds of meters.
Before colliding head-on with the huge dragon's body, Lydia tried her best to deflect the fuselage and pulled the red wrench next to her to the lowest end.
The moment it intersected with the dragon's body, a strong laser beam shot out from the front end of the fuselage.
The top of the fighter plane seemed to be equipped with an indestructible sword of almost infinite length!
The distance between the two sides was less than thirty meters!
Lydia could even see the chain-like divine patterns on the scarlet dragon scales... Such a close distance undoubtedly brought the power of the laser beam to its extreme. The hard dragon scales were cut in an instant, and the fighter plane whizzed past. A bloodstain several meters long from east to west appeared on the huge dragon's body.
Blood filled the sky and huge dragon roars echoed continuously.
"What on earth is this?" Silide realized something was wrong only when the fire dragon under him was injured. He could only vaguely sense that something had invaded his territory, and it flashed by at an unimaginable speed.
After being hit hard again, the lava dragon was already furious. Its red eyes kept searching for the enemy that attacked it, but the polarization magic was very effective in hiding in the dark. It could only feel the airflow from the fighter plane and the humming sound of the propeller...
The fire dragon opened its mouth and spewed out hot dragon breath continuously, sweeping towards the place where the sound came from.
It was just that the fighter plane was too fast. Under Lydia's control, it was like a nimble fish, weaving through the fierce dragon's breath, and even firing its engine cannon from time to time to fight back...
Accompanied by a fierce burst of machine gun fire, continuous rain of bullets reappeared. Hundreds of bullets were fired in just ten seconds, continuously hitting the body of the fire dragon.
Although most of them were broken by the hard dragon scales, there were also many wounds oozing blood, which aggravated the injuries. The red blood continued to fall along the dragon's tail.
Amidst the roar of anger and pain, the hot dragon breath became more and more violent, and the entire dragon crashed directly into the direction of the rain of bullets.
Lydia was extremely brave, but she also knew that her fighter plane could not fight a dragon head-on, and the burning dragon breath would also affect the battle to a certain extent.
After all, she can see in the dark and hit the target accurately. This is not just due to her vision, but also due to the magic of sensing heat.
This is also the reason why pilots who fly fighter planes must be selected from wizards.
Fortunately, the battle is not about who is bigger or who has more powerful magic. If you can't hit someone, these advantages are meaningless! Lydia obviously implemented the word "wandering" to the extreme. She always kept a certain distance, circling around the huge fire dragon, and occasionally started the cannon to attack, constantly harassing and provoking the irritable fire dragon, and occasionally found the right opportunity to get close to the laser beam to hit it hard! According to the dean, the angrier and more irrational the enemy is, the more chances there are! As for Sirid on the dragon's back? This target is too small, and it can't be found at all under the magic of sensing heat. It is covered by the huge heat source of the fire dragon.
The two sides fought for several minutes, and Long had dozens of shocking wounds on his body.
The lava fire dragon, which was already on the verge of going berserk, completely lost control. Its dragon breath was overwhelming, and its tail was swinging wildly, attacking aimlessly.
Lydia narrowly avoided the dragon's tail, and then a round of shooting hit the fire dragon's body...
"This vitality is too strong!" Lydia was secretly shocked as she looked at the lava dragon that kept wailing but still stood there. She had never seen a creature that had been hit by so many laser beams and was still "full of energy" under the strafing of machine guns.
The fighter plane had already consumed 80% of its 4,000 rounds of ammunition, and only less than one-third of the energy left to supply the laser beam...
It seemed that they could only save some ammunition and slowly exhaust the opponent's physical strength and vitality. Lydia didn't believe that this thing was immortal. The fighter plane still had more than half of its fuel left. If it dragged on, she would definitely be the winner! "Enough, stop!" Sirid grabbed a protruding spike on the dragon's back tightly to avoid being thrown off. He also infused a large amount of divine energy into the dragon-shaped gem, forcing the lava fire dragon under him to stop its meaningless attack.
Their goal was not to fight with an invisible and unreachable target here, but to delay time and destroy as many aerospace airships as possible.
These alchemical creations were loaded with the main forces of the wizards. Every time one was shot down, it meant the deaths of hundreds of musketeers and wizards.
Under Sirid's constant instigation, the irritable lava dragon finally poured out all its anger and frustration on the airships that had not yet escaped far.
Lydia saw the fire dragon, which had become hysterical due to her "teasing", suddenly turned around to chase the airships. She immediately followed it eagerly and turned on the sound amplification array added by the alchemists, and mocked loudly.
"Come and hit me, I'm right here..."
Lydia provoked the dragon for a while, and when she saw the dragon still chasing the airship, she angrily scolded, "Only cowards would run away!"
Sirid ignored Lydia's words and controlled the fire dragon under him to constantly change its position to reduce the frequency of being hit by the laser beam.
Although the lava dragon still looked alive and well, Sirid, who held the dragon-shaped gem and could sense its condition, understood that these injuries were draining its vitality bit by bit, but they were not obvious because of its anger.
While the lava dragon can still hold on, he needs to destroy as many airships as possible and prevent them from heading to the source of kerosene...
