Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 235 Guards
The scales of the white dragon Gemot were like pieces of ice crystal carvings. Its body hovered and stood in the air. Its frost-cast head stood tall, and its ice-blue vertical pupils stared at the two strange dragons appearing and disappearing in the black clouds in the sky.

The blue dragon Carlit, covered in blood and with one wing torn off, staggered out of the Eternal Punishment Realm. The green dragon Ellie, with her scales tightly locked and her magic power released, saw the breakthrough and quickly jumped out of the realm.

"Come behind me, Carlit," said the blue dragon Akzi in a deep voice.

A pale blue electric current was hidden on the huge horn of the blue dragon Akzi. Its long and thick body stretched out across the sky. With the skills of a dragon, it firmly locked onto the two terrifying dragons and covered the escape of its companions.

The green dragon Ellie did not hide behind the two male dragons, but faced the enemies in the sky side by side with the two male dragons.

The dragons in Gogmora are all young. Youth is the advantage of these dragons. They have not yet taken shape and have a lot of room for development and adjustment.

But their youth is also their disadvantage, meaning that it is difficult for them to gain an advantage in strength over much older dragons.

As for the two dragons on the opposite side, with the dragon's perception, one could clearly know the other's age group. They were two adult dragons.

Although the multi-headed dragon is a relatively weak race, almost the same as the white dragon among the five-colored dragons, it can only grow a fifth head during the ancient dragon period, thus matching the power of legend.

But an adult hydra dragon is enough to have an overwhelming advantage in physical strength over these young dragons.

Moreover, this creature has the same strong vitality as the hydra. All the heads of the hydra must be chopped off to kill it completely.

The black clouds in the sky are the unique magical abilities of this creature, including darkness, stinking clouds and death clouds. These spells can greatly obscure the perception of enemies and opponents, restrict the enemy's activities, and allow the hydra to raid the enemy at will.

This is why, although the hydra dragon race is not considered very powerful, red dragons and storm giants are still on their enemy list.

The origin of these hydras is unknown, but they are ancient enough. In the dragon tradition, some sages and great scholars believe that these hydras are ancient offshoots of prehistoric dragons that have been hibernating for millions of years.

Other scholars believe that hydras are branches of higher dragons, and that they were created by the tampering of supernatural forces, such as the five-colored dragon god Tiamat.

As for the other dragon, the blue dragon Akizi and the white dragon Gemot must be cautious and vigilant.

"Eternal Punishment Dragon,"

The white dragon Gemot had learned the dragon heritage in his blood. He opened his mouth, bared his teeth, and spat out three words coldly.

The Eternal Punishment Dragon is a powerful dragon that is one of the largest dragons in the world of Ekania.

Before adolescence, the Eternal Punishment Dragon is one level stronger than the strongest red dragon among the five-colored dragons. This is not only due to the two breath abilities that the Eternal Punishment Dragon is born with - the disintegration force field and the weakening gas breath.

The former is an extremely powerful offensive breath ability, while the latter is a powerful auxiliary offensive breath ability. Creatures affected by the latter, if their wills are not strong enough and their minds are not strong enough, will be affected by spells like the negative spell - Full of Despair.

It also has powerful spell-like abilities that have their own unique uses. If it weren't for the fact that the place where this giant dragon usually lives doesn't overlap with that of many true dragon species, it might also be feared by many creatures.

Only after reaching adulthood will this kind of dragon be caught up with and gradually surpassed by the rapidly growing power of the red dragon.

"You are also a dragon. We are of the same race. Why are you willing to be with the giants? You should have traveled with the dragons and roamed the sky with us."

"You shall belong to the kingdom of dragons,"

The White Dragon Gmot glanced at the orderly legion commander on the city wall, who was ordering many soldiers to load crossbows and artillery to block the giants outside the city wall.

His mission, along with that of Akiz and his colleagues, is to hold back these two adult dragons that are flexible enough to deliver powerful destructive and impact capabilities on the battlefield.

According to the Imperial Defense Directive, the Dragon Lord in each city can issue a level three warning when encountering unpredictable dangers and summon the Dragon Lords of friendly cities to help repel the enemy.

A level three alert means that the power of a single city and dragon lord is not enough to repel the danger and drive away the enemy, so the dragon lords of surrounding cities need to provide support.

If the force assembled for the first time is not enough to resist the danger facing the city, the Dragon Lord can raise the level of warning until it is raised to the highest level of alert order.

This is also part of the initial defense system created by the expanding Golden Empire of Sun and Moon.

The white dragon Gemot, the blue dragon Akzi, and the green dragon Ai Li only need to delay time and wait for the new dragon to join the battle, or wait for their warriors to deal with the giants outside and then drive the two adult dragons away.

"Haha, dragons don't have this concept, even though we all call ourselves dragons."

There was always a mocking and sarcasm expression on his face, but it was just the normal expression of the Eternal Punishment Dragon. He poked his head out from the black clouds, and the mocking expression became very vivid, because at this moment, the dragon was really mocking the words of the White Dragon Gemot.

"Although the dragons in our bloodline are driven by nature, they are also driven by a mission,"

The Eternal Punishment Dragon sneered and said, "We, the Eternal Punishment Dragons, used the Promised Land of the Gods as our confinement domain, but we never expected that we are the guardians of that land, but we are also the prisoners there."

"Even though it has been abandoned by the gods today, that mountain range is still the prison of our Eternal Punishment Dragon. Hahaha, the former prisoner has become my master, but I have not received any mercy."

"This is a dragon," the Eternal Punishment Dragon sneered loudly, his dark eyes flashing with an eerie green light. At this moment, the boiling magic power was under his anger, and the souls of many restrained prisoners roared and struggled from the strange striped patterns on his scales, revealing their faces, wailing at the dragons below.

"Even though we were once driven by dragons, it was always taken for granted. This is what you call a dragon, a dragon ruled by those high and mighty dragon gods!"

The roar of crossbows and heavy artillery rang out on the city wall, as if echoing the words of the Eternal Punishment Dragon, and blasted the minds of several lord dragons with the loud noise.

"Then you should stop and go to the kingdom of dragons to see for yourself. The Golden Empire is a kingdom founded and ruled by real dragons."

The calm voices rang in the ears of several dragons that were confronting each other. Another dragon stepped out from the anchor point of teleportation - the golden bell, and then transformed from a humanoid form into a strong dragon.

At this moment, the blue dragon Doss arrived here through the unique transmission channel of the dragon lords.

The three dragons in the sky bared their teeth and laughed at the same time. They said, "You may be able to stop us temporarily, but your warriors cannot stop those giants."

"A dragon should be alone, come and go as it pleases. Those followers and forces are just tools for the dragon to enjoy and exploit. Why do you care so much? Those cowardly and insignificant people don't deserve to live in this world."

"Is that so?" Blue Dragon Doss grinned. The blue dragon raised its head, and its huge dragon horns almost reached the sky. The dragon could see a rumbling black shadow moving slowly along its own trajectory above the sky. "Perhaps, I will disappoint you, a stupid guy hiding in a remote corner without a clear understanding of the world," Blue Dragon Doss laughed, "I don't agree with the first half of your words, but the second half of your words, in my opinion, makes sense to you."

Crack,

As a huge magic barrier slowly rose up in the Gulfstream City below with the Tree of Life as its center,
Dazzling electric current surged through the blue dragon that had not moved for a long time. The blue dragon Doss leaped forward and roared, "Kill this ugly guy first."

"The Prison of Blue Thunder,"

Boom!

Thunder rumbled, lightning flashed in the dark clouds, and blazing white lightning fell in succession, piercing through the layers of dark clouds and piercing the body of the hydra like spears. The jumping lightning turned into shackles and then into a cage, trapping the adult hydra dragon inside.

"Roar,"

Several giant dragons that were used to cooperating flapped their wings at the same time, roaring. Biting frost and blue lightning attacked at the same time. The twisted vines that grew rapidly against the wind spread their tentacles and thorns and rushed straight into the sky.

The battle between giant dragons broke out in the sky. In the black clouds that were exploding in succession, giant dragons shuttled back and forth and attacked.

But even the sky where the dragon soars is not the highest under the dome.

Under the sky and above the clouds, a huge shadow seemed to be moving slowly, but in fact it was moving in a constant circle at an extremely fast speed. The clouds in the sky were directly pushed aside by the tall building shrouded in magical shadows.

But the sunlight from the sky was able to penetrate the magical shadows of the tall buildings and did not affect the areas under the shadows.

Only the eagles and griffins flying high in the sky could see, if they got close, that in this huge shadow, there was a tall spire standing high in the sky and constantly moving.

The huge energy crystal on the spire is shaped like a huge dragon's eye, watching every place under the high dome.

This giant dragon's eye is connected to the elemental channel inside the Mage Tower, providing sufficient magic power to allow the shadow of magic to cover every part of this one-story Mage Tower, which is six meters high and twenty meters wide at the base, so that even the strong winds at high altitudes cannot affect the activity trajectory of the Mage Tower.

The space inside the tower appears to be much wider than what the tower itself can accommodate. The wide interior space is large enough to accommodate a huge square.

Inside the Mage Tower, tall energy pillars stand surrounding the huge elemental pool in the center, injecting elemental power from several connected small elemental planes into the elemental pool.

The surging elemental forces are then diverted from the elemental pool and flow through the energy channels inside the Mage Tower, providing tremendous power to allow the Mage Tower to soar into the sky.

Teams of busy spellcasters and scholars are using various magical instruments in the Mage Tower to record and correct the operation trajectory of this first floating mage tower born in the Golden Empire.

After plane development and trade with arcane merchants from the astral plane and various civilized countries, the Golden Empire was finally able to build the first scaled-down elemental pool and experimental wizard tower, and successfully launched it into space.

These mages and scholars, if not guided and controlled, would easily cause trouble. Fortunately, Charon always had sufficient plans, waiting for his scholars and mages to study and implement them.

The launch of the mage tower is just a small step for the empire to build an air-to-ground defense system, but these mages have been motivated to map out the orbits for the subsequent launch of the mage tower.

In the defense system construction document issued by the military, based on the current territorial area, at least dozens of wizard towers will need to be erected in the future empire's airspace.

These wizard towers will orbit the empire's airspace like stars in the astral sky, flying day and night along the orbit of construction. They are the Golden Empire's unbreakable steel dome and the Golden Empire's most powerful offensive weapon.

But even the Mage Tower is only preparing for the subsequent floating city plan, so these mages must collect data and perform a huge amount of calculations to build a perfect orbit for the subsequent defense system.

Next to these busy mages, there are tall golems standing. These golems are composed of different types of golems, such as clay golems, iron golems, alchemical golems, stone golems, dragon bone golems, etc.

The souls that drive the golems come from the elemental life captured by the empire from those small planes. This batch of ordinary golems are also the products of experiments.

This batch of products will be dropped into the border cities of various empires by floating wizard towers to enhance the empire's defense capabilities and test and collect relevant data for subsequent improvements by scholars.

Responsible for deploying this batch of golem legions and supervising these mages are a group of warriors wearing Achilles heavy magic armor, which is also the most powerful branch of the empire - the Emperor's Guards.

To a certain extent, the Imperial Guards are able to represent the will of the ancestral red dragons and hold a very high status in the empire.

The Achilles heavy magic power armor they wore meant that as long as these Guards did not fall and left their vulnerability to the enemy, they would always have strong power, which was enough to prove how powerful this customized armor that was bound to the souls of the Guards was.

The horse-slaying heavy blades held by the Imperial Guards are high-end weapons developed by the Imperial Magic Integration Department. Attached to the surface of the magic steel is magic that can turn ultra-high temperature flames into plasma. Driven by the Imperial Guards' own mental energy, the horse-slaying heavy blades in their hands can be transformed into high-density sharp blades that are powerful enough to cut through all steel in the world.

Therefore, when these imperial guards noticed the movements of Gulfstream City through magic projection in the tower, they just calmly picked up their heavy horse-slaying swords, walked to the teleportation device of the Mage Tower, and waited quietly.

The senior wizard who was in charge of the teleportation device stared with wide eyes at the giant on the screen, who was attacking the wall of Gulfstream City. He could not help but shout angrily, "These idiot dogs came out of the stinky ditches and mountain corners. If the construction of the wizard tower was not perfect enough and could not be equipped with the latest developed magic siege cannon, I would blow these stinky dogs to death with one shot."

"Get ready," the wizard waved his hand and shouted, "The floating tower is already sinking at a very fast speed. It will reach the predetermined drop distance in half an hour."

Click, click, click,
The armor on the dragon-faced helmets of the imperial guards closed one by one, making continuous noises, and blazing eyes shone through the ferocious dragon-faced helmets.

boom,
The giants in the front, together with the ogres and trolls, have already rushed to the bottom of the city wall. The tall giants waved their weapons and smashed the short city wall, creating gaps in it.

Although the giants left behind several corpses and other giants were more or less injured, the giants with thick skin and flesh still seemed unstoppable in front of the weak military force of Gulfstream City.

The Cyclops Acis also swung a huge bone hammer and rushed forward, trying to accumulate power for a blow and directly destroy the gate of Gulfstream City.

However, suddenly, in the sky, there was a bright light like the sun falling, and a strong beam of light projected down from the high clouds and shone on the earth.

The Cyclops Acis looked up and saw a tall tower suspended in the air. A huge beam of light was projected down from the bottom of the tower. In the steadily fluctuating beam of light, warriors in blood-red armor stepped down from the sky one by one, and their fluttering blood-red cloaks were like flaming flags.

One after another, heavy golems fell to the earth like meteorites and stepped on the giant's head.
