Lord Harland.

Chapter 500 Battle in the forest
While Hograni used the power stored in the dragon crystal in his body to recover from his injuries, he ordered Ramos to command the flying dragon to attack the magic ship of the Kingdom of Harland.

This old legendary dragon with a lifespan of more than seven hundred years is very experienced. Although the battle was brief, Hogreni has discovered that the enemy can release star bombs multiple times.

Although the star bomb did not directly kill Hogreni, it still posed a strong threat to her.

There are many high-level professionals in the Harland Kingdom, and Hogreni wants to use Ramos to consume some of Richard's magic power before making the next step.

Hogreni changed her strategy. She hid in the periphery and roamed around, while Ramoos led the two-legged dragon to attack the defense line composed of the magic ships of the Kingdom of Harland.

The bipedal flying dragon flies extremely fast and high in the air, making it particularly difficult to aim with a magic crossbow.

Large groups of bipedal dragons were constantly hovering high in the sky of the magic ship, releasing acid missiles. More than one hundred and fifty-six acid missiles landed from the sky and hit the magic ship's protective barrier, consuming the energy on the magic ship.

The two large magic ships use legendary magic cores, which have more energy reserves and can also support the defensive barrier. The remaining medium-sized magic ship was continuously hit by dozens of acid missiles, and the protective barrier was instantly broken. It was only thanks to the spell protection released by Sophia and other magicians that the acid missiles released by the flying dragon were blocked.

Compared to the battle more than twenty years ago, the flying dragon commanded by Hogreni was obviously smarter. They no longer swoop to attack the magic ships of the Kingdom of Harland and avoid attacks by magic crossbows and other anti-air weapons. Instead, they avoid harassment attacks at high altitudes, as if fighting aerial guerrilla warfare.

Richard stared at the flying dragon hiding in the sky, constantly analyzing the pros and cons in his mind. From the bottom of his heart, he was not willing to engage in an aerial war of attrition with the flying dragon. Even though Richard brought 200 gryphon cavalry with him on this expedition, the strength of the flying arms was not weak, but if they fought head-on with the flying dragons, both sides would definitely suffer losses.

Therefore, after the battle broke out, Richard did not order the Lion Knights to take off to fight.

Even if the magic core supporting the protective spell is completely consumed, the magic crystal furnace can still be relied on to provide a second layer of protection. Although the Magic Crystal Furnace is not as efficient as the Magic Core in converting magic power, there is no chance of winning if it consumes the flying dragon.

Compared to the wild wyverns, the Lion Knights are very tightly organized and gather in one formation. With each attack, a squad of Griffins focuses on one opponent.

Such an exchange ratio was simply unbearable for Hogreni and Ramos. The two giant dragons wanted to join the battle, but were stopped by high-level professionals from the Harland Kingdom.

The fallen griffons will receive good treatment. The Kingdom of Harland has a very strong battlefield rescue capability. Of the eight or nine fallen griffons, four or five can be saved.

Seeing the high-altitude bipedal flying dragons still circling around the magic ship, Richard remained unmoved and ordered the medium-sized magic ship to replace its protective energy source, then continue sailing and land ashore according to the original plan.

After the lion knight flew into the sky, a fierce battle broke out with the flying dragon. Both sides continued to release spells in the air, magic missiles, and acid missiles flying everywhere.

More importantly, after many years of training, the lion knights cooperate more tacitly than the wyverns. After all, although the flying dragons have certain command, they are still inferior to human warriors.

After several rounds of fighting, more than ten wyverns fell from the sky, while the gryphons only suffered eight or nine casualties.

Although there are many bipedal dragons in the sky, their magic power is very limited and they can only release seven or eight rounds of spells. But the magic ship carries plenty of energy.

The battle lasted for more than half an hour, and Hogreni also discovered this.

Seeing that the magic ship is getting closer and closer to the landing point, at this moment, if you want to prevent the Harlanders from landing, the bipedal dragon must dive and attack and fight a close battle with the Harlanders.

For this battle, Richard mobilized enough good players. In addition to himself, there were also five legendary players, Sophia, Sutton, Sylph, Wilde, and Rand.

Although somewhat irritated, Hograni gave up on keeping his enemy at sea.

After arriving at the landing point, Richard immediately ordered the lion knights to take off and drive away the flying dragons in the sky.

Dragons are magical creatures with high intelligence and can also sum up the experience of defeat.

Once it dives and attacks, the flying dragon will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

Moreover, the magicians and lion knights of the Kingdom of Harland have not taken action yet. The flying dragons alone are unable to sink the magic ship in the sea.

All the flying dragons that crashed on the sea fell into the hands of the Kingdom of Harland. The injured flying dragons were captured, and death was equally useful.

Although the griffin's professional level is not as high as that of the wyvern, its temperament is not as vicious and powerful as the wyvern. However, there are human knights on the back of the griffon to assist in the battle, and it is also equipped with enchanted armor to protect its weak points. Compared with the wild bipedal dragon, its combat effectiveness is not far behind.

The knight on the back of the griffon also raised his magic crossbow and fired magic arrows at the flying dragon to help the griffon suppress its opponent.

Wendy's mental power has reached fifty-one points, which is equivalent to half a legend and half a legendary mage. Although Undine and Margaret are weaker, their mental power has already exceeded forty points, and they are equally difficult to deal with.

Although Hogreni's individual combat effectiveness is extremely strong, even Richard is no match for him in a single fight, but he cannot stop him when faced with the swarm of high-level professionals from the Harland Kingdom.

Seeing that the situation was becoming unfavorable, Hogreni left Ramos to monitor the enemy, and then withdrew from the battlefield with the wyvern.

After the flying dragon left, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Harland began to seize the time to land.

The soldiers recruited by Richard for this battle were all elite. They were assembled quickly and arrived in a small boat in less than half an hour.

After the soldiers completed the landing, Sutton commanded the magic fleet to retreat and transport the second batch of reinforcements. Richard commanded the landing troops and went straight to the White Dragon's lair, forcing the dragon to organize troops to fight head-on.

Bailong's lair is less than thirty kilometers away from the coastline, and the straight-line distance from the landing site chosen by Richard is only more than forty kilometers away.

If it were an ordinary infantryman, marching in the coastal virgin forest, it might take two or three days to cover the 40 kilometers. But Richard recruited elites whose physical fitness was far stronger than ordinary people. The forty-kilometer forest mountain road only takes half a day to walk.

Richard and his men had just gone more than ten kilometers into the forest when the dragon-veined kobold troops appeared. This group of dragon-veined kobolds was smarter and actually fought an ambush battle against the Harland Kingdom army.

The kobolds hide in the forest and on both sides of the marching road. Although the weapons they use are simple, they are smeared with venom.

In an instant, javelin arrows flew in all directions. Although the infantry reacted quickly and immediately raised their enchanted shields after being attacked, fifty or sixty people were injured and poisoned.

It would be troublesome for the poisoned weapons to hurt anyone. Fortunately, the Harland Kingdom's army was well prepared and had a large number of magicians and doctors accompanying the army. The mages have released magic to remove toxins, and the doctors have also performed operations to cut flesh and blood, and the Kingdom of Harland has developed many detoxification and hemostatic drugs. The two-pronged approach has allowed the poisoned soldiers to receive good treatment, and they did not die of poisoning on the spot. .

"careful!"

There was a cry of surprise behind Richard, and some dragon-veined kobolds hidden in the trees suddenly appeared. They used blow darts and shot deadly poisonous arrows.

This kind of poisonous arrow is coated with the venom secreted by the flying dragon, and it almost has the effect of sealing the throat with blood. Ordinary people who are hit by this arrow cannot last long enough for treatment. Only professionals whose physical fitness is several times stronger than ordinary people can wait for the rescue of magicians and doctors.

The kobolds' second round of attacks was even more unexpected. Dozens more soldiers fell in an instant. Even magicians and doctors in the middle of the team were shot by poisonous arrows and soon died in the battle.

In just a few minutes, more than twenty people died from the poisonous arrows at the hands of the dragon-veined kobolds.

Although they suffered an unexpected surprise attack, the army of the Kingdom of Harland did not panic. This army was experienced in combat. The officers immediately stepped forward and climbed up the big trees to chop down their opponents.
Wilde, Rand, Silver and other close combat professionals took action one after another.

When the legendary professional took action, the dragon-veined kobolds couldn't stop him at all. In an instant, many kobolds on the trees were hacked to death, and countless kobolds hidden in the woods were killed and injured.

Faced with the sudden attack, Richard did not take action. He was in the middle of the group, with the magicians, observing the battle.

Suddenly, Richard felt strong palpitations, and the fear of death emerged in his mind. This was the danger perception talent that high-level magicians had awakened.

In a flash of lightning, Richard released a high-level protective force field spell.

Richard had just released his defensive spell when a cold sword light appeared behind him.

Although there were no eyes on the back of his head, through mental scanning, Richard discovered that the attacker was a legendary dragon-veined kobold whose appearance was similar to Kilam who was killed by Richard back then.

The long knife struck the defensive barrier fiercely, and the violent collision caused a gap in the protective barrier. After finally breaking through the barrier, he was easily caught by Richard's hands.

After more than ten years of accumulation, Richard not only broke through the second legendary level in magic level, but also advanced to the legendary realm in warrior level.

After being promoted to Legendary level as a warrior, Richard's strength has increased to fifty-one points, his physical strength has exceeded twenty points, and his agility has exceeded sixteen points. His physical fitness is like that of a superman. Richard can now easily carry a ten-ton truck. Overturned.

The dragon-veined kobold's sneak attack on Richard was not sure of killing him. After all, magicians have various methods and have many ways to escape from danger, whether it is opening a dimensional door or using spells such as transformation. Avoid this knife. But he could take advantage of Richard's evasion to quickly kill some middle- and low-level magicians.

The core of a sneak attack in the jungle is to slow down the enemy's progress, cause some damage to the enemy, and exert psychological pressure. The dragon-veined kobold knows how much he weighs.

With Richard's status, he would not easily engage in close combat with the enemy. But when it came to a critical moment, Richard's melee combat ability was comparable to the sneak attack of the dragon-veined kobold.

Richard grabbed the back of the knife with both hands, and his strength was even stronger than that of a dragon-veined kobold. This scene immediately shocked the dragon-veined kobold. He let go in a panic and tried to retreat, but Richard had already released a powerful three-ring magic immobilization technique on him.

Under normal circumstances, the legendary dragon-veined kobold moves very fast, and it is difficult for Richard to find an opportunity to use the immobilization technique to immobilize him. But this time the dragon-veined kobold came to fight in close combat. The distance between the two sides was only a few dozen centimeters, and the dragon-veined kobold had no room to dodge.

Even though the dragon-veined kobold was promoted to legend and has high magic resistance, Richard released a powerful magic, which cost one hundred magic points and was about three or four times more powerful than standard magic, and successfully immobilized the dragon-veined kobold.

Although the powerful immobilization technique only immobilizes the dragon-veined kobold for a second or two, in battle, one or two seconds can determine the outcome.

Seeing that the dragon-veined kobolds were immobilized, the high-ranking officers responsible for protecting the magicians took action one after another. Sura, Lost, Cohen, and Robin rushed up from all directions and surrounded the dragon-veined kobolds.

Sulla had been with Harland for forty years and was an experienced veteran officer. Although his qualifications were not as good as those of a one-in-a-million man like Jennings, they were actually no less qualified than Soros and William. . After forty years of hard training, his professional level has been promoted to the ninth level.

Lost is also a veteran, and his personal strength is stronger than Sulla. He is a ninth-level knight and the backbone of Harland's army.

Cohen is the fifth son of Powell and a rising star of the second generation of the Harland family. At the age of 43, his professional level has been promoted to the seventh level.

Robin is also a veteran of the Kingdom of Harland, with a career level of eighth level. Although he is not as eye-catching as Jennings, he has worked hard in the territory over the years and has successfully been promoted to a hereditary baron.

Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for the four Sullas to fight against the legendary kobolds. After all, the legendary dragon-veined kobolds had an agility of over 25 points, which was more than twice as fast as the four of them, giving them priority in the battle.

But at this moment, the legendary dragon-veined kobold was immobilized by Richard with the immobilization technique. After Sula and the four others rushed up, the legendary dragon-veined kobold immediately became a fish.

Unable to move for a second or two, the legendary dragon-veined kobold watched helplessly as he was decapitated by Cohen.

The legendary dragon-veined kobold under Hogreni's command is even weaker than the Orc Empire's Kiram. After all, the Orc Empire already has a certain level of magical civilization, which is far beyond that of White Dragon in the wilderness. Kilam has a protective armor with good defensive power.

And Hogreni was restricted by the greedy and stingy nature of the dragon. Although he was a legendary alchemist, he took all the magic treasures into the dragon's lair. Even important backbones such as the legendary dragon-veined kobolds could only serve as dragons. The slaves had almost no equipment.

The legendary dragon-veined kobold was killed unexpectedly, and the Harland Kingdom army also successfully won the battle. The dragon-veined kobold troops that made a sneak attack were driven away by everyone.
