Eric led the dragon knights to quickly arrive above the fleet, and then without hesitation ordered everyone to fire dragon breath at the same time.
For a moment, the hot dragon breath gushed towards the fleet like raging tongues of fire.
When the eight demigods in the cabin conference room heard the noise, their faces changed suddenly. They gritted their teeth and rushed out in a flash, trying to intercept the fierce dragon breath.
However, this move by Eric and others was just a tentative attack.
Seeing that they had successfully lured the demigods out of the fleet, they immediately rushed towards the demigods like hungry tigers pouncing on their prey.
This sudden attack caught the demigods of the Northern Continent off guard. They had no choice but to fight back, praying in their hearts that the Queen's support would arrive quickly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
The two sides engaged in battle in an instant. The powerful energy collision caused violent fluctuations, and the figures of the people appeared and disappeared in the energy storm.
As the battle escalated, both sides increased their altitude and flew towards the sky.
Below, the ten dragon knights from the Northern Continent looked up at the sky with complicated expressions, their eyes filled with worry and helplessness.
Scar stared at the powerful demigod in the sky who was clearly at a disadvantage, and suddenly a bold but dangerous idea came to his mind.
He quickly took out the life-saving item given to him by his father, General Kedel - a divine weapon of a lower god, and was about to start operating it.
The sharp-eyed captain standing by was horrified when he saw this. He rushed forward and stopped him in his tracks. He glared at Scar with anger and shouted, "Are you crazy? You're going to kill all of us by doing this. Do you even know that?"
Scar paid no attention to the captain's obstruction, with a look of determination in his eyes. He still tried to control the artifact and aimed at the dragon knight who was suppressing his own demigod.
Seeing this, the captain stood in front of Scar without hesitation. He knew very well that once Scar used this artifact and released power beyond demigod to kill the opponent's dragon knight, it would cause extremely serious consequences.
After all, how could the Dragon Spine Kingdom behind the other party not have the means to deal with the power of the lower gods?
In this case, they would probably die here and never be able to return to the Northern Continent.
"Calm down!" the captain shouted. "Do you think they're pushovers? If you dare use it, none of us will make it back alive!"
However, Scar seemed to be overwhelmed by the situation of the battle, and ignored the captain's warnings, still trying to bypass the captain and continue to operate the artifact.
"If we don't fight now, we'll all die!" Scar's eyes reddened as he loudly retorted, "Are we just going to sit there and watch them kill all our demigods?"
"This is not the time to risk your life!" the captain said gritting his teeth. "You'll only make the situation worse!"
The two men were in a stalemate below, while the battle above was still raging, and the situation became increasingly tense.
The eight demigods above were in a difficult situation at the moment. As the six demigod dragon knights on the other side became serious, the battle became more intense.
"Ah!" A scream pierced the sky. A demigod was unable to dodge and was hit hard by Eric's sword. He lost his breath instantly.
The other seven demigods were also more or less seriously injured, and ordinary healing potions were useless in the face of such serious injuries.
Eric and the others didn't give them any chance to breathe. After Eric put the body of the demigod into his space ring, he took the lead and rushed forward again.
The dragon knights followed closely behind, and for a moment, the shouts of killing and the roars of dragons were intertwined.
Just a few minutes later, several screams were heard again, and three more demigods were killed. Some were swallowed by the dragon, and some were burned to death by the dragon's hot breath.
The remaining four demigods were as pale as paper, filled with fear. "Why hasn't the Queen's support arrived yet?"
One of the demigods shouted anxiously, his voice filled with despair.
"Are we all going to die here today?" another demigod muttered to himself in despair.
"I don't care about you anymore, I'm leaving first! If the Queen blames me, I will bear it alone!" A demigod really couldn't bear the huge pressure.
He made a prompt decision, quickly opened a space crack, and dived in. Seeing this, Luo Jia also rode on the dragon and followed closely behind him.
At this moment, the remaining three demigods fell into deep despair.
The leading man gritted his teeth, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he took out a lower-level divine artifact that exuded a terrifying aura from his space ring - the Demon-Subduing Pestle.
His face was sinister, and he gripped the demon-subduing pestle tightly as he roared viciously at Eric and the other five, "Retreat now, or we'll all perish together! I'm going to die anyway, but you won't be able to escape unscathed either!"
Eric and the other five people instantly felt a powerful fluctuation of divine power that far exceeded their own, rushing towards them like a surging tide.
They couldn't help but feel troubled. If they attacked rashly, the other party would most likely activate the artifact at all costs, and then everyone would be destroyed. But if they retreated, they would be unwilling to do so, after all, they had the upper hand.
The five people looked at each other, and there was a hint of hesitation in their eyes. For a moment, the situation was at a stalemate.
At the critical moment when the two sides were at loggerheads and deadlocked, Lorga appeared in front of everyone like lightning, riding a giant dragon and holding the body of the demigod who had just escaped.
In front of everyone, he put the corpse into the space ring.
This scene made the already tense atmosphere even more solemn, especially for the man holding the demon-subduing pestle. Seeing this scene, he subconsciously gripped the pestle tighter, and his knuckles turned white from the force.
After briefly understanding the situation from Eric, Luo Jia looked sharply at the man holding the demon-subduing pestle and said coldly, "Are you sure you want to do this? Hasn't the Continental Congress issued a relevant order? Don't you understand the consequences of doing this?"
Hearing Luo Jia's question, the man's face instantly became gloomy and uncertain, and his mind was weighing the pros and cons like a turbulent sea.
He knew very well that activating the artifact and dying together might relieve his hatred temporarily, but it would inevitably violate the ban of the Continental Congress and bring disaster to himself and the forces behind him; but if he gave up resistance, he was really unwilling to do so.
After a fierce ideological struggle, he looked like a deflated ball, his shoulders drooping weakly, and he slowly put the demon-subduing pestle into the space ring.
Eric saw all this and couldn't help but feel suspicious. He remembered that Betan once said that the powerful divine power contained in the artifact could not be withstand by an ordinary space ring.
It would break due to the release of divine power, but the person in front of him was able to put the demon-subduing pestle into it. It seems that this space ring is no ordinary thing.
Just when the man wanted to surrender, waves of space fluctuations came, and more than a dozen space cracks opened, and support from the Northern Continent arrived.
