Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 334: The Three Armies Encircle
What does it feel like to die? I'm afraid no living being can give an answer.

But Selvis felt it. Not only did he feel it, he felt it as clearly as if it were engraved in his soul.

The overwhelming fear and despair manifested for the first time in such a direct way, as if it was going to devour everything of his and freeze his essence!

Thousands of meters in the sky, the battle between the Evil God and the Dragon King, which should have been evenly matched, completely fell into a one-sided crushing situation.

Lucia swung her sword, and the sword light burning with black and red flames suddenly extended to a hundred meters away, like a crack when the world was first created, slashing towards the star body of Cygnus!

The thin wings on one side of Signis flashed with brilliant magical light, and he swung them out to block. The moment the magic and the black flames came into contact, they melted quickly like ice and snow encountering a raging fire, disintegrating into disordered and chaotic energy that dissipated everywhere!

Amid the roar of mountains and rivers collapsing, the star body that had been invincible in the forbidden battle was nearly cut in half. The three broken wings flew into the air, and before they could fall to the ground, they were burned to ashes by the blazing fire of death.

A sword wound as deep as a valley ran across most of Signis's body. In the shattered wound, flesh and blood like crystal tentacles rapidly surged, trying hard to recover, but was burned by the remaining black flames and twisted and trembled, emitting billowing black smoke, and could never heal!
In the chaotic vision, Cygnus vaguely saw a silver meteor flying towards him.

The next moment, a sharp pain like a thunderbolt came from the top of the head. Only at this moment, the ears heard the explosion of bones breaking and the sharp whistle of air tearing!

After Lucia transformed into a half-dragon, her elbow with bony spikes smashed heavily on the top of Signis' head. Her void wings flapped again, and her agile body turned into a ball of fast-spinning thunder. She melted the high-level barbarian fighting skills with the grandmaster-level ancient dragon fighting skills into one, punching, kneeing, shouldering, elbowing, and in an instant, thousands of fierce and domineering attacks bombarded Signis' torso!
Each attack was accompanied by the black and red intertwined flames of death and dragon thunder of destruction. The indestructible exoskeleton of Signis exploded inch by inch as if it was hit by a heavy hammer. The splattered divine blood was evaporated by the boiling energy field while still remaining in the air, and for a moment, a large blue cloud of smoke appeared in the sky.

"Ah——" Cygnus let out a shrill roar.

At this moment, a claw of destruction slammed heavily into his heart and abdomen. The cold and sharp destructive force pierced through his heart and lungs, leaving a hole as big as a wellhead in his back. Black and red fire and blue blood gushed out together like blooming poppies!

With his pupils drowned in blood, Segnis tried his best to open his eyes wide, but he could not catch sight of Lucia's rapidly flashing figure. Suddenly, he saw him appear in the sky in front of him on the left, dancing his two swords into a whistling storm, and disappeared in the blink of an eye!

Puff, puff, puff—a series of crisp sounds were heard as flesh and blood were cut by the sharp blade.

The star body with its shattered shell could no longer provide him with adequate protection. Severe pain like slow slicing appeared on every inch of his skin from head to toe almost in an instant. The intense pain almost drove him crazy!
The huge insect-like and beast-like body of Cygnus twisted and trembled wildly in the air. He wanted to avoid the torrential rain of sword light, but he could not put up any effective resistance.

Suddenly, his body stopped abruptly, and Lucia stabbed a sword into his left shoulder with her left hand, and the Sword of Night and Fire in her right hand activated the Stance of Night, like a comet torrent pouring out of the Milky Way, piercing the sky!
The violent magic washed over the head of Signis, and the small half of the distorted human face and the large piece of flesh behind the neck evaporated together, leaving only a charred semi-arc gully. Lucia brazenly pulled out the hunting god's greatsword, and the dragon body flashed, and the afterimage appeared above Signis in a disillusionment, twisting his waist and piercing straight down with the sword, piercing straight through the center of the spine!
In the black flames and blue blood that seemed to be erupting from magma, he cut all the way down along the spine of Cygnus that was as high as a mountain, splitting each section of the spine that blocked his way in half, and burning every inch of flesh and blood that tried to heal into dust!
Since the injuries inflicted by all the power of the Star and Moon civilization thousands of years ago were unable to completely kill this evil god, he would use the most cruel and brutal means to destroy the last bit of life in its body!
When he was on the verge of death, Cygnus burst out with a surge of power from nowhere, and desperately threw Lucia away. His divine power burned wildly, and he turned into a stream of light and fled rapidly towards the north!

Lucia glanced at the direction he fled, and with her Void Wings fluttering in the air, she followed closely behind him.

Under their feet, after the main god fled, hundreds of thousands of star beasts, which originally had only the instinct of killing and destruction, suddenly fell into chaos. Some of them wanted to flee with the gods, some wanted to continue fighting southward, and some simply gave up thinking and killed each other according to the law of the jungle.

In the wasteland further south, silver waves were already approaching with the momentum of a landslide and tsunami.

Thousands of flying dragons cleared the way with their high-temperature dragon flames, twenty thousand storm knights charged at the forefront of the ancient dragon army, the jet-black cloaks behind the mithril heavy armor were like a gust of strong wind blowing from the ground, the blood-stained halberds crushed all obstacles in front of them, and the star beasts that were closer could even see the flashing edges on their halberds!
The star beasts that first set foot on the southern battlefield had all been killed, and the battle between Lucia and Segenis broke out behind the beast tide. The aftermath of the battle alone crushed countless star beasts.

When this group of star beasts that had lost their organization and fighting spirit once again encountered the powerful collective charge of the ancient dragon army, the front line immediately collapsed completely like a river bursting its banks. The bloody melee like a meat grinder no longer appeared, and was replaced by a massacre of pursuit and destruction!

After suffering a severe blow on the southern front, the beast tide followed their survival instinct and fled northward. However, before these confused beasts could turn around and flee, a large number of Star-Moon Royal Flags fluttering in the wind appeared behind the hills in the northwest.

The silver-armored and blue-robed knights of the Kalia royal family launched a coordinated group charge the moment they stepped onto the battlefield. The heavy cavalry in the front row, holding round shields and long spears, turned into rows of cold and ruthless life harvesters. Wherever they passed was like a sharp knife scraping across fish scales, raising huge waves of blood in the fleeing tide of beasts.

The magician corps rode on giant puppets that were tens of meters high. These steel giants were quite similar to the war golems that the Golden Dynasty was proud of, but their actual combat roles were completely different - they were not equipped with longbows or halberds, and their overall image was similar to a short and strong giant holding up a huge metal fortress.

On the base of each fortress was engraved a permanent solidified magic circle that greatly increased the speed of magic gathering. Thirty magicians stood behind the barrier, pouring dense magic attacks like thunder and rain into the distance.

The northwest and south were blocked by the army. The last nearly 300,000 remaining star beasts finally woke up after paying a heavy price. With red eyes, they burst into a ferocious fight to the death and rushed towards the plains in the northeast direction.

At this moment, a low and majestic military bugle sounded, and rows of heavy infantrymen wearing golden armor appeared on the horizon with steps as steady as mountains.

Under the fluttering flags of the Scorching Sun Legion, 30,000 heavy infantry blocked the last way of life, and 40,000 cavalry deployed a pincer formation, with 3,000 Rodel tree guards as the vanguard, and with an indomitable momentum, they launched a grand charge against the desperate beast tide!
The Burning Sun Legion, never retreat!
