Chapter 404: 422 Forcibly Dismantling Stania_1
“The God of Magic has abandoned us…”
A young Magic Guard stood dazed on a high platform in Stania, tears streaming down his eyes, provoked by the intense light from Otto’s Breath of Truth.
Reason told him that he should flee from this hellish place, but the deep-rooted despair in his heart left him standing there blankly, unable to act.
Finally, Stania’s strongest spear and strongest shield clashed together.
“Boom!”
An ear-splitting explosion resounded. At first, the Stania protective shield and Otto’s Breath of Truth seemed evenly matched.
However, gradually, with Otto’s relentless firepower and the additional onslaught of the Undead Dragons’ breath and magic attacks, the once sturdy turtle shell-like Stania shield began to show some tiny cracks.
But Otto still found the progress too slow, and although breaking Stania’s shield was likely inevitable, there was a risk that Stania would escape unscathed before that happened.
This was something Otto absolutely could not accept. He had already graced this massive toy with his presence for quite a while and could not let it easily slip away.
Thus, enormous thunderous power and scorching flames filled Otto’s body, not only greatly enhancing his physical abilities but also bringing his flight speed to an extreme.
After a short time, Otto abandoned maintaining his Breath of Truth and chose instead to channel its terrifying power into the sharp horns on his head.
The huge, hideous dragon horn shimmered with bright golden light, and driven by thunder and flames, Otto’s dragon form streaked across the sky, creating a dazzling trail of meteor feathers as he crashed into Stania’s protective shield.
In some ways, Otto’s choice was similar to what Frostfire had done earlier, but the outcome was completely different.
On his massive, hideous dragon horn, Otto wielded not only the power of Truth, but also the properties of various legendary weapons.
At this moment, Otto’s entire dragon form was the most formidable and terrifying weapon!
“Boom!”
Without any elaborate maneuvers, Otto simply and directly collided with Stania’s protective shield.
The terrifying force shook the entire Stania Floating City, even though there was a considerable distance between it and the protective shield.
Chris and Paton had been closely watching Otto, and when they saw the fearsome black dragon charging over with such a terrifying momentum, they were a little worried.
But after seeing the final outcome, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the impact was massive and frightening, Stania’s protective shield had held up, at least for now.
As long as they continued to channel the Floating City’s magic power into the shield and the propulsion system, Stania should be able to escape this terrifying place.
Seeing this, Chris and Paton’s expressions relaxed slightly.
“Crack…”
However, their good fortune did not last long. A thin, long crack suddenly appeared on the shield and quickly spread at a visible pace.
“Damn it!”
Paton’s face turned dark, though before he could make a rescue attempt, Otto had already extended his sharp front claws.
By Otto’s side, Stania’s protective shield was as fragile as a cracked eggshell and was easily torn apart.
Although the magic shield was powerful and practical, it was not without its flaws.
If torn apart in such a manner by Otto, Stania’s shield would need a considerable amount of time to reform a new one.
And before that happened, the shield was essentially useless.
However, for a long time, this design flaw had not caused Stania any trouble, as there had never been an enemy capable of utterly shattering the shield like Otto had done.
Caught off guard, both Paton and Chris were stupefied and unsure of how to deal with the situation.
As they hesitated, Otto descended forcefully on a high platform in Stania.
“Boom!”
The most conspicuous structure on this platform was an exquisite Mage’s Spire, which Otto now pinned beneath his body as if it were an armrest.
Rampaging thunder and scorching flames still enveloped Otto’s body, and the Mage’s Spire beneath his claws began to melt due to the intense heat emitted from his paw pads.
Some spellcasters inside the Spire were hit by falling debris from the sky, and those who were lucky enough to escape the collapsing Spire found themselves face-to-face with a hideous black dragon.
“Damn it!”
The owner of the Mage’s Spire, a slightly plump, balding, white-bearded old man barely managed to escape from the collapsing tower, only to stare into a cluster of crimson eyes fixed upon him.
Uncontrollably, the old man’s legs began to tremble.
He shakily raised his magic wand towards Otto, but before he could complete his spell, he was crushed into pulp by an Undead Dragon that dropped from the sky.
“Boom! Boom…”
The continuous thuds of heavy objects landing echoed around Stania as more and more Undead Dragons landed on the Floating City.
And among those who landed beside Otto was none other than the leader of the Undead Dragons, Frostfire.
“My lord!”
Frostfire respectfully knelt before Otto, then sneered at the panicking residents of Stania and said, “Now, would you like your loyal followers to eliminate these noisy insects for you?”
Otto had no objection, silently nodding in agreement.
With Otto’s consent, Frostfire laughed coldly, took to the air once more, and charged towards the Stania people, who were nearly scared senseless.
What followed was a massacre!
Compared to ordinary people, even the most common Stania person was a powerful spellcaster.
However, in the face of the mountain-like Undead Dragons, they were still at a complete disadvantage.
Even more crucially, as time passed and dusk approached, countless ethereal undead beings slowly floated toward Stania.
As for Otto, he continued to rely on the partially collapsed Mage’s Spire, watching Stania’s predicament with great interest.
This toy would certainly become his possession, but before that, he needed to carry out a thorough cleanup here.
The buildings did not match his aesthetic, and it was time to tear down and rebuild!
