Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 22 Chimera and the Hydra

The manticore flying towards the city wall noticed the tiny creature roaring towards it. The manticore, who was originally attracted by the archer, immediately changed its target. Under the protection of the evil moon, it ignored the arrows that hit it. Go straight to Masnow.

The huge lion's head hit Masino's shield with an incomparable impact, and he felt his left hand lose consciousness for a moment. Even though the Stormwind Union gave him strong protection, this monster is worthy of being the hero in various legends. The vicious image is still hard to resist.

Knowing that such a competition of brute force will not be an opponent, the elves have never been good at strength, this kind of giant beast manticore, even the dwarves who are good at strength and toughness will be dwarfed by them.

Stepping sideways, instead of wrestling with the Manticore, Maslow picked up the long sword and stabbed the monster's eye first. The attack was successful, and the monster was stabbed blind in one eye, but this undoubtedly only aroused its fierceness. sex, not fear.

The manticore raised its left arm and slapped Masno with great force, but this attack did not achieve the same effect as usual for this thin creature, but was blocked by the shield instead.

Masnow, who had recovered a bit, had to deal with the manticore for a long time with the help of the storm union. As long as this monster is killed, this monster wave should be over.

Ordering others not to approach, this time he intends to kill this insane monster to show his bravery and glory.

With the aura of faith to weaken the Manticore's defense, and the newly obtained high-quality enchanted long sword and dark gold shield in his hands, this monster is constantly weakened under his offensive, and it is expected that after a few attacks, it will be able to kill it ugly head.

But at this moment, several voices suddenly attracted his attention, and there was a little fear in the voices, "Look, there seems to be some big guy approaching over there."

Can't drag on any longer, Masnow immediately ordered several dragon princes beside him to help him kill the manticore. Personal bravery and glory are important, but we can't let this game be won without any loss. Even if there was an accident in the defensive battle, even if the prince would not punish him, Masnow would think it was a great dereliction of duty.

In just 2 minutes, the manticore's head had been chopped off by a giant sword. Regardless of who should belong to this splendid trophy, Masnow lay on the battlements and looked out at the mountains.

A large number of harpy corpses lay in the open space outside the fort, most of them fell in mid-air due to the shells of the Eagle Claw Ballista, while the rest were attacked by archers and eight people at close range. Attack of the storm.

And following the loud noise, in Maslow's shocked eyes, two hydras appeared trampling the corpses and the woods, and beside them, there were a large number of saber-toothed tigers and other monsters.

But this is not the worst situation, several howls of different sounds suddenly came out in the sky, Masnow, who knew what the howls meant, immediately asked the gunners to alert the sky, when the hydra appeared, he felt something Pressure, but the different howls meant he might need the Prince to support the battle.

A creation of chaos larger than the manticore entered the eyes of everyone in the air. The monster had three heads, a vulture on the right, a python in the middle, and a lion head on the left. This is an extremely rare creature. Even in the chaotic frozen land, the appearance of a chimera often indicates a disaster. They are one of the few creatures that can compete with the dragon for supremacy in the air. The three heads can breathe out different breaths. , highly poisonous, and raging flames, these are all abilities that Chimera can easily use.

"All focus on the Chimera, and shoot it down first." Masno walked up to a priest of Ardaeus and ordered, regardless of whether he was one of his subordinates, "Use your magic turret to attack the hydra , they must be held back until the prince finishes talking with the high priest."

Masno knows how terrifying the power of the hydra is. Hundreds of years ago, the famous beast lord Lakas of Druzzi summoned nine hydras to attack Ulthuan. Although six of them were killed, Still doing devastating damage to Asur's army.

The former prince was also killed by Drucci's assassins on the chaotic battlefield when he and his dragon partner were focusing on killing a hydra.

On the battlefield, unless you use a dragon or a large number of ballistas to focus fire, otherwise it will not have much effect against a monster that can regenerate quickly like a hydra, and fire is an excellent way to fight them , the Temple of Ardaeus is equipped with a lot of flame magic turrets, which will definitely delay these two behemoths for a while.

Chimera's flying speed is extremely fast. Although the wingspan on its huge body is not particularly long, as a creation of chaos, its body is full of chaotic energy that causes mutations. These unstable energies make Chimera's speed faster than Considering its size, it was unbelievable, and only eight crossbow arrows successfully hit it under high-speed flight.

But the crossbow arrows didn't achieve much effect. The evil moon Moslib hung high in the sky, and it would protect those monsters rushing towards the civilized world under its influence. A dark green energy barrier successfully blocked the attack of the crossbow arrows.

This is also one of the reasons why Imrik is reluctant to form a large-scale long-range army at the beginning. There are too many ghosts and snakes in Warhammer. A long-range unit with firepower is not as good as a big sword in hand when fighting against some enemies.

Just when Masno felt a little hopeless, a huge dragon flew out from the inside of the fortress. Compared with the twisted creation of chaos, it looked so graceful and moving.

Minasnier had noticed the movement in the air long ago, but he still lay lazily on the open space in front of the temple. After Ardaeus possessed the high priest, the temperature of the temple rose extremely, even reaching the level of ordinary people. It's unbearable, but as a Shining Star Dragon who can take a bath in the volcano of the Longji Mountains, the unbearable temperature for ordinary people only makes it a little sleepy.

After the Eagle Claw Ballista shot had no effect on the Chimera, Minasnir knew it was time for him to take action. As the leader of the dragons of Caledor, in a sense, it was Caledor's Another king would never allow these filthy creatures to set foot on his territory and kill his people.

The giant dragon rushed towards Chimera at an extremely fast speed. Compared with other creatures, the huge creature looked thin and weak in front of the legendary Shining Star Dragon. The sharp dragon claws cut through Chimera's body, and green blood fell from the sky. The soil made a sizzling sound under the action of the strongly corrosive blood.

Minasnil's attack originally intended to cut off its three heads directly, but Chimera, as the pinnacle of the creation of chaos, would not be easily killed like this, so he changed the direction of flight and flew towards Mi nasnier.

The three ugly and crazy heads opened wide at the same time, condensing lightning, venom, and flames in their mouths and spewing towards the dragon's back. This kind of breathing is the most iconic attack method of Chimera, even if it is an adult griffin, it will suffer The last shot was also half broken.

　PS: There are Chimeras and Hydras in the toilet seat. The Malekith Biography (6000) in the column of Station B has related descriptions, but I don’t know if there are any survivors after [-] years. The author believes that there are a few The rare ones exist in the Annuli Mountains. According to the textual research of Emperor Wuspian, the author has not done rigorous textual research, so it is regarded as serving the plot.
