I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

After a brief thought, Idina decisively chose the most feasible option at the moment - relying on high-end combat power to destroy as many fortresses as possible, or at least to slow down the speed of their advance.

Although the number of people sent by the human race to participate in the judgment battle far exceeded Idina's previous estimate according to the news sent by Evelin before entering the demiplane, Her Royal Highness the Princess did not intend to ask for help. She just told her to defend normally and wait for her to come back, and it would not take too long for her to end the battle.

In other words, in the best case scenario, they only need to hold on until the end of the Judgment War and Eve returns. At that time, these human armies will be restricted by the regulations of the Judgment War and retreat.

"Hmm... My large-scale attacks are of the targeted type. They'll leave holes of varying sizes upon impact, but there's a high probability that I won't be able to disable this kind of fortress, so I can't predict the approximate outcome."

Although Istina had gained a lot after her trip to the wonderland and had made up for her shortcoming of lacking large-scale attacks, it also brought a new problem, that is, her attacks were rushing towards a route that would leave no one alive. After a set of annihilation thunderstorms, it was estimated that there would be no one left alive on the battlefield except her. There was no need for anyone to clean up the battlefield, after all, there would be no corpses left.

And unlike explosion-type attacks that are comprehensive and cover almost a large area at the same time, the annihilation thunderstorm, as an attack based on thunderstorms, naturally also has the characteristic of adding randomness to a single point. Within a certain range, it can still ensure that the final result is comprehensive, but if it is expanded, these annihilation lightning will appear much sparse.

At this time, the two sides had not yet officially started fighting, so Istina naturally had no idea whether just opening one or several holes in these aerial fortresses could stop them from advancing.

And there is another problem, which is the safety of these soldiers. Although it is a bit strange for her to worry about such things, Istina knows that Eve generally does not want to kill these soldiers on a large scale. However, judging from the current situation, this has undoubtedly become a luxury.

Unless Eve can end the battle before these aerial fortresses reach the vampire defense line and force them to withdraw through a decisive battle, large-scale deaths are inevitable.

After all, it became very difficult for her to take care of the lives of these troops after they flew into the sky.

Needless to say, the consequences of directly shooting down the aerial fortress were unimaginable. Without a miracle, most of the soldiers, who were just trained ordinary people, would definitely die horribly after falling from such a height.

But if she acted as a buffer one by one, there would be no way she could stop these fortresses from advancing.

And considering that the enemy's numbers were so large that they occupied most of the sky above the plain, they did not have the luxury to do so, and doing so would be irresponsible to their companions.

"Is that so...it's indeed a problem..."

After hearing what Istina said, Idina's brows furrowed even more.

It would not be good news if these aerial fortresses would only crash when more than half of them were destroyed. We must test it in advance.

Thinking of this, Idina looked at the adjutant beside her.

"Send a few people to attack those aerial fortresses to test whether they have any defensive magic protection and how much damage they will take before they crash. Prioritize attacking the fans sticking out from all sides."

Although she didn't understand the principle, Idina could still guess that the ability of these fortresses to fly high into the sky was related to those things.

"Yes!"

Since the defense line had already gathered all those with long-range attack capabilities for statistics, it didn't take much time to find a few suitable candidates. Soon a team of ten was formed, and their actions were projected on the light screen in front of everyone so that Idinas could analyze the information as quickly as possible.

Since time was tight, everyone directly chose the most powerful magic, striving to achieve success in one strike. There were ten attacks, with the first two shots testing possible defensive magic, and the remaining eight shots targeting the fans twice each, in order to test how many fans could be destroyed to cause the fortress to fall.

However, when the attack began, the actual situation was far beyond everyone's expectations.

First of all, the specialized destructive magic that was originally intended to break through the defense failed to capture its target at all. It hit the main body of the aerial fortress directly, leaving a not-so-small hole, which surprised everyone in the command room.

So these aerial fortresses rely solely on the strength of metal for defense?!

Even if you use a little defensive magic, it counts as your effort.

Needless to say, after destroying two fans, the huge and seemingly indestructible aerial fortress began to fall down with flames.

§103 Shocking Change

Looking at the aerial fortress falling straight down without any defensive magic protection, Idinas began to suspect that the other party was deliberately hiding their strength so that they could ambush them when the battle really started.

If these aerial fortresses were only this strong, then the pressure on them would be greatly reduced.

After thinking for a moment, Idina continued to give orders.

"Each of you attack a fortress. Targets are random, but try not to get too close."

"Yes!"

A few seconds later, ten magical spells with different lights roared from below and bombarded the aerial fortress.

However, this time the sky fortress did not remain peaceful.

Suddenly, several blood-red shadows flashed through the air, intercepting the magic midway and turning it into gorgeous fireworks, failing to successfully attack the fortress itself.

"What was that just now? Why did it look like a tentacle?"

Recalling the bloody shadow that had just flashed by, Idina's words were filled with uncertainty at the end.

"That should be... correct."

But unfortunately, Istina also held the same opinion as her.

That thing is the famous enemy of magical girls - the tentacle.

But the more crucial question is why would such a thing appear in this metal fortress?!

The whole style of painting is wrong.

"Wait! Look at those fortresses!"

However, before they could guess, the fortress in the projection began to change drastically. Scarlet flesh spread over it, covering the silver-white metal. Thick tentacles grew out of it, climbing all the way to the nearest fortress and then merging into one, completely connecting tens of thousands of aerial fortresses into a whole.

From a distance, it looked like a cloud made of flesh, blood, and metal, drifting towards the vampire defense line in a dark mass.

"What happened..."

Needless to say, everyone present at this moment had already realized that there was definitely a big problem in the human army.

"Demon God followers...Demon God followers!"

The first person to react was Istina, who slammed the table.

"Idinas, I suspect the current situation is related to the Demon God's followers. Have everyone retreat to the fortress and avoid any contact with them."

"Quick! Order everyone to return and don't expose themselves outside!"

"Yes!"

Because the vampires need to avoid sunlight, this fortress was built with many bunkers to block the sunlight, so even if no one appears on the ground, it will not have a big impact.

Hearing Idina's order, the army that had originally gathered on the ground quickly began to move underground.

As for what exactly happened in the Sky Fortress, we have to push the time back a few minutes...

I am Old John, originally an ordinary resident of the empire. Although I am not old enough to be called Old John, my face looks so old that I look like I am in my fifties, so I am called Old John.

I was originally an ordinary human being, without any magic power and without the favor of weapon elves. However, in a test to select qualified persons, I was lucky enough to become one of the qualified persons, and then I was taken to an unknown place to start training.

There, the empire brought me hope of becoming stronger!

A gift from the Empire, this magical medicine has allowed me, who was never destined to become a supernatural being, to gain magical powers!

The feeling of that power flowing through the body is really great!

It’s a pity that my son is a little young and more importantly, he doesn’t have the suitable aptitude, otherwise he could also join our team of qualified people.

But it doesn’t matter, your future father will tell you his story.

Because after that I knew the purpose of the empire recruiting us and the glorious cause that the empire was going to create - to break the dilemma of the human race being trapped in a corner for thousands of years, and to break through the blockade established by the blood clan in the Land of Fall!

And I also saw those magical metal creations, or war monsters.

They were made by a group of short men with bad tempers, only as tall as a person's waist. If anyone mixes up the names of these metal creations in front of them, they will be scolded. It's so annoying. They don't think that except for them, no one else can tell the names of these similar things.

But apart from their rotten tempers, these guys' casting skills are indeed extraordinary. All of these metal creations were made by them, and almost no magic was used.

Hey! We were so amazed when we saw these huge creations move.

We qualified people are the ones who are responsible for maintaining these metal creations. We usually rest in a place called the power room, which is actually a single room. The only difference is that the space allocated to each person is a bit small, and the height inside is only enough for sitting cross-legged. But it's good enough to have a single room. Why would we need a bicycle?

Today is the day we launch our attack on the Fallen Origin. Although we have stopped for a while for unknown reasons, the order to continue has been passed down. We, the qualified ones, have also returned to our own small hemisphere cabins after taking the secret medicine.

If you ask me, it would be a waste to give this secret medicine to us. It should be given to the soldiers responsible for the battle. Obviously, we don't need to fight, but the order from above is like this.

Now we have arrived above the Fallen Plains, and are about to attack the group of blood-sucking stink bugs below, letting them see the courage of humans!!!

puff--

Just when Old John was about to get excited, he felt a sweet sensation in his throat, and then he spat out a mouthful of sweet liquid.

……Eh?

Looking at the blood spurting out of his mouth and staining the inner walls of the cabin red, Old John was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch the liquid.

However, what appeared in his sight was a twisted arm or tentacle covered with scarlet tumors and deformed flesh.

...Huh? Is this...his hand?

The next moment, Old John's consciousness ended there.

His body, which barely maintained its human form, suddenly expanded and filled the hemispherical cabin directly, leaving no space at all, and scarlet flesh and blood filled every corner.

If you look closely, you can see that the flesh and blood are slightly wriggling, symbolizing that it is a living being.

A similar scene was playing out in every hemispherical cabin in every power module of every aerial fortress. Human bodies expanded and turned into twisted, deformed tumors, and were then tightly confined by the cabin walls.

As for their subsequent use...

I saw a scarlet fleshy tentacle stretching out from a distance, and without hesitation inserted into a hemispherical cabin, and then began to extract the power from the flesh and blood, until a layer of shriveled dead skin was left attached to the cabin, and then it swayed and inserted into the next cabin to continue absorbing.

Living battery, this is the final destination of qualified people, and also the reason for the name of the power cabin.

Their flesh and blood, life, origin and everything they have are the driving force for the fortress to advance and fight.

§104 Flesh and Blood

I am Nicolòs, an Imperial soldier, and currently an armored soldier selected from among the masses.

Now I have taken the secret medicine, put on the outer armor, and am ready to attack the vampires at any time. I just don't know how this metal fortress will send us down.

But those people above are really good at hiding things. Such a big thing can actually fly, and fly so steadily. They can even keep such a secret.

Those dwarfs are really powerful. No wonder they are so arrogant and dare to scold anyone they see.

Even the captain, who had such a bad temper, didn't dare to talk back after being scolded.

Haha, this is the first time I see the captain being scolded so badly.

Although the captain immediately took back the blame on us.

Tsk, if you have the guts go and scold those guys.

Apart from this somewhat annoying captain, everything else is fine. The rest of the armored soldiers are elite soldiers selected from the Imperial Army.

And what we are about to do is destined to be engraved in the history of the empire and become the most glorious moment - the empire's million-strong army breaks through the blood clan's blockade of the Fallen Origin and directly enters the blood clan's territory.

The generals have already gone to participate in the arbitration battle. We cannot fall behind and must achieve sufficient results before the generals return.

Why does my body become more and more itchy after taking that secret medicine?

Tsk, I can’t scratch to relieve the itch even with the outer armor on, so I can only make do with it and endure it.

But unfortunately, the itching sensation did not subside over time. Instead, it became more and more intense and soon developed to an unbearable level.

If the outer armor had not been put on and fixed in place, Nicolás would probably be rolling on the ground to relieve the itch.

Itchy, so itchy!

At this moment, the itch that came from his bones had made Nicostin unable to think about the next battle. The only thought in his mind was to find a way to relieve the itch.

"Tsk."

Nicolás moved his body as hard as he could, using that tiny space to rub his outer armor hard in an attempt to relieve the itching. His colleague opposite him was doing the same thing as him, and it seemed that the itching sensation also appeared on his body.

But the scene that happened next made Nicotine freeze in place as if he had temporarily forgotten the itchy feeling on his body.

The soldier's body movements became more and more intense, and even some bright red unknown liquid flowed out from the gaps in the outer armor and dripped onto the ground.

Finally, with a muffled explosion, scarlet flesh and blood burst out from it, directly turning the original silver-white outer armor into a hideous human figure mixed with flesh and blood.

"!!!"

At this moment, Nicotine was so shocked by the scene happening in front of him that he couldn't even make a sound.

Just as if a fuse had been lit, similar muffled sounds began to be heard continuously in the armored standby area, and the itching sensation on Nicotine's body had reached a level that he could no longer bear.

Regardless of the fact that his body was fixed and forgetting the tragic scene that had just happened before his eyes, Nicolás began to twist his body constantly, just to relieve a little bit of the itching.

But suddenly, the itching sensation disappeared from his body, and he felt a sense of relief.
