Chapter 738 Aerial Surveillance
"Keppy! Paddy!"
Enbi was stunned at this time. He had been a Dragon Bird Knight for seven or eight years, but had never encountered such an attack.
Originally, the sky at this height of seventy or eighty meters could be said to be completely ruled by the air knights. Unless there were other air beasts or elves, they could rest easy.
But at this moment, a continuous column of fireballs rose from the ground. Before they could even react, the two dragon bird mounts beside them were blasted to a crisp.
"retreat!"
Seeing that the fireball column shot down Kepi and Paide and then shifted its target to other team members, Embi knew that he could not stay here any longer.
He let out a loud roar and immediately led the other dragon bird knights to rush upwards.
Boom boom boom! Roar! However, the fireballs that cut through the sky with dense bullet chains were not as easy to dodge as Enbi imagined. Just as they were escaping quickly and gaining altitude, they heard another rumbling sound, and the dragon bird under another team member was hit.
"Fly higher!"
Even though Embi was gritting his teeth at this time, he could only keep urging his teammates to leave.
As for the teammates who were hit, he was powerless to do anything. Based on the warnings they received from the old Duke, they were no match for the God of Death on the ground.
"Damn, what a loss, we only shot down three!"
When he saw that after the third Dragon Bird Knight was shot down, the remaining Dragon Bird Knights in the air had flown more than two hundred meters high, Gervis stopped releasing fireballs.
In his heart, he felt a little sorry for his two kiwi fruits. The reason why he was able to release so many fireballs was naturally because he had taken the energy fruit and the infinite mental power fruit, but he only shot down three.
Of course, no matter how wasteful it was, at least the Dragon Bird Knight above his head was driven away, which solved the current dilemma.
"Everyone, set off immediately!"
Gervis immediately gave quick orders to the team.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After hearing what Gervis said, the soldiers immediately took action, reorganized their team and quickly headed towards the road ahead.
"Your Majesty, the three fallen Dragon Bird Knights have been dealt with!"
The Dragon Bird Knights were all composed of White Flag Knights, but because they fell directly from a height of seventy or eighty meters, they also suffered considerable damage, so Gust and Hayden easily finished them off when they passed by.
The situation was urgent at the moment, and Gervis was not going to leave any survivors. If he delayed for too long, these dragon bird knights would escape.
"Well, leave them alone and drag those dragon birds away!"
Gervis nodded and gave an order.
This swift dragon bird is a mid-level magical beast after all, so it certainly cannot be wasted.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"You guys go get it ready and continue on your journey with the team. I'll hold off these natives for a while."
Gervis's eyes were now on the natives. The natives were still riding their magical beasts and wandering around not far away, with no intention of leaving. Gervis would naturally not give them an easy time.
Gust and the others had witnessed the terrifying fireball technique that Gervis had just used, so they were not worried about his safety. They immediately followed the order and ran quickly towards the corpses of the three swift dragon birds.
After Gust and others left, Gervis did not delay and roared immediately.
"Fireball!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh! The close-in defense gun suddenly turned into a machine gun, firing directly at the native spies wandering a hundred meters away.
Boom boom boom! "Roar! Roar!"
“Ah! Ah!”
As Gervis showed his power again, those native spies were in trouble. Their mobility on the ground was not as flexible as in the air. In an instant, three or four native spies, including their monsters, were hit by fireballs, and shrill screams were heard immediately.
"Retreat quickly! That invader is too powerful!"
"Retreat quickly!"
As their companions fell one by one, the natives became frightened and began to retreat rapidly towards the city.
When Gervis saw this, he stopped shooting fireballs and turned around and left while riding Nightmare.
…
After leaving the battlefield, fearing that the spies from the second city would continue to harass them, Gervis and his companions marched more than twenty miles in one breath before settling down in a secluded location on the side of the road.
And five miles behind, Gervis also sent out two teams of twenty-man direct guards to provide alert.
As for the remaining seven bird dragon knights in the air, they disappeared after being forced back by Gervis' powerful fireball.
However, Gervis was sure that the bird dragon riders would continue to follow them.
"Welton, do these bird dragon riders have any weaknesses?"
There were a pair of eyes above his head watching his and others' movements every day, so Gervis was naturally unhappy. He had to find a way to get rid of those dragon bird knights before he could feel at ease.
Unfortunately, Gervis does not have his own air force. If the Dragon Bird Knight does not fly down on his own initiative, he can only stare at these air knights who are monitoring him.
"The flying speed of the Swift Dragon Bird is very fast, but its defense is not strong. Moreover, because of its high flying speed, it consumes a huge amount of energy when flying, so it needs to eat frequently!"
Upon hearing this, Weldon immediately began to slowly tell the information about the Swift Dragon Bird.
"But, Master! If we rely solely on ground attacks, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat the air knights!"
Weldon changed the subject and spoke directly about his thoughts.
"Um!"
After hearing Wen'er's words, Gervis had no idea what to do for a moment. He could only nod and fall into deep thought.
…
Nothing happened that night, and the next morning Gervis and his group continued on their journey.
However, the situation today is somewhat different from the past.
The second city did not rush to send troops because they did not know the details of Gervis and his men, but the dragon bird knights above their heads no longer concealed their figures and hovered directly and openly above Gervis and his men.
"There are only five Dragon Bird Knights!"
As Gervis looked at the Dragon Bird Knight who always remained above 300 meters in the air, he had even worse guesses in his mind.
"Your Majesty, the other two Dragon Bird Knights may have gone to seek support!"
"It's not support, it's very likely that we have pursuers behind us!"
At this time, Gervis had already remembered the flying beast he saw under the tree the day before yesterday. He was afraid that it was the dragon bird knights above his head now.
The whereabouts of himself and his companions have been monitored since they left the base and started moving forward!
These dragon bird knights of the Golden Shield Family had been following me, and only took action last night. So, Batman probably knew that I was now on my own and must have received new instructions, which is why these dragon bird knights in the air took action last night.
There was no need to think too much about what Batman's instructions were. Their actions last night were probably intended to delay him and his men or consume their strength.
Then the Golden Shield Family’s ground troops are probably on their way to intercept and kill them.
At this moment, Gervis had guessed most of Batman's plan.
