Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

It was obvious to Nicole that Amera and Doaf were pushing this hard, trusting her to defend their backs. The long ranged mages were now the only obstacle standing between them and their victory.

And so she didn't hesitate to push her army forward, neglecting any skirmishes over other units of the enemy for now.

She previously tried to delve deeply inside the enemy ranks to relieve the pressure over Amera and Doaf. But now she had another task to do.

The moment she shifted her strategy, both forces on the sides of this hostile army began to pick up the pace.

Luckily those long ranged mages were focused mainly on the edges of the enemy lines, making the task of reaching and killing them much easier for Nicole's forces.

Besides, Aemie really sent the cream of the crop of the cauldron elites, making this task sounded like a piece of cake to them.

"We are almost there," Nicole watched a large number of those long ranged mages fall like dry weeds in front of a fire storm. The remaining forces which could pose a threat to the two in the depth weren't that threatening now.

Her forces needed almost an hour to clearly kill the remaining mages here. She then planned to direct the forces towards the main body of the hostile army itself.

However just as she was thinking of victory, a grave change occurred out of the blue.

It came from no other place but the sect itself. All of sudden the sturdy defensive shields protecting the sect started to collapse one after another.

Previously the giants were able to crush many of these arrays, for more to appear and replace them. It was a futile attempt to crush the arrays in this way, however they persisted and kept smashing as much as they could.

But now the arrays collapsed from within, opening a wide path in front of the enemies to swarm the sect.

"Damn!" Doaf couldn't help but raise his head and watch this breach in the defensive shields, "that damn traitor! He finally acted!"

Doaf was already aware of Nicole's actions. He knew in less than an hour things would have ended already for the enemy. The annoying long ranged mages would have been killed and then he and his forces could roam the army and kill without reservations.

Also Amera would move freely without that much pressure exerted over her.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The moment the gap opened, the enemy forces started to run and fill it. On the contrary to Amera, Doaf, and Nicole, they were ready and expecting this gap already.

So the moment it appeared, they weren't dazed off and ran as fast as they could towards the peaks of the sect.

However the moment they did so, massive explosions started to erupt from the ground.

"Ground traps… Impressive!" Amera was already trying to catch up with the frontline. She was so close by and in less than half an hour she would have reached there.

But now things changed as the gap opened all of sudden. But before she could even cross a hundred meters, loud bangs erupted all of sudden from the front.

She watched the ground troops of the enemy getting killed by mines implanted there. This was new, as far as she knew there was no such a thing before.

"So he still left a hidden hand in times of distress... He is really something!"

Nicole couldn't help but marvel at this move while standing high in the air and watching what was going on at the forefront. These explosions came unexpectedly to all, enemies and allies alike.

And yet that didn't prevent the enemy from sending more mages and monsters to infiltrate the sect.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"They are... really persistent," Doaf couldn't help but turn his eyes around, "but if we cut off their main supply, they would end up losing much more than gaining."

He found out that this would be a temporary set back for the enemy that he should exploit well. He turned his gaze towards Amera at the front before taking out a bird's wing and wrote something to her.

And then he turned his swords towards the nearby hidden worlds and started killing their owners.

"Keep killing them," he screamed, "we need to exterminate them first."

Just as he did so, Amera received his message. She turned around before realizing what he said was true.

The tactic of the war changed with the new variables here. She didn't need to be busy dealing with the frontlines anymore, these mines would.

As for her, she had another task to do. As Doaf wrote, the top priority now was for them to clear as many hidden worlds as possible.

That would ensure that the enemy losses would be painful and would really impact the enemy regardless of the final outcome.

"Listen up," she turned to the annoying mages Doaf sent with her. She tried to lose them many times before, but eventually she was amazed to realize they were fast enough to catch up with her.

That made her realize the small trick Doaf pulled behind her back. Despite feeling angry at him at first, now she realized this came to their benefit.

"Spread up, use your speed to exterminate any hidden world controller in the area."

"But my lady..." one of them tried to understand what was going on here.

"There is no time for that! Just execute the order now!"

Yet she didn't give him any room to speak as she instantly vanished with her spear. The next place she appeared was a couple of hundreds of meters away where she landed upon a group of hidden worlds clustered together.

They were heavily guarded by dense mages and monsters. However Amera landed on top of their heads and started killing the ones controlling these worlds first.

When the guards realized what she was doing, she already killed the hidden worlds controller and vanished the next second towards the next group.

"You heard the lady," the one who spoke earlier said, "let's disperse in ten groups. Our target is those hidden worlds. Aim at their mages and then jump for another group. Don't engage in deadly fight with anyone, understood?"
