Chapter 454: Chapter 376: A Feast on the Battlefield Chapter 454: Chapter 376: A Feast on the Battlefield “Roar——”
The smoke cleared, revealing a massive Red Dragon nearly forty ters long on the battlefield, issuing a furious roar.
The ground made of ashes and rock was smashed into a giant pit with a diater of a hundred ters, deeply sunken.
Within the pit were the crushed remains of hundreds of Fire Lizards and Fire Drakes.
Terrified, the Fire Lizards dropped their spears and lances, slithering away in all directions.
The Fire Drakes, equally panic-stricken, flapped their wings frantically, flying erratically in the air.
“It’s, it’s a dragon!”
“By the Lord of Flas, why is there a Red Dragon here?”
“Quick! Run! This is a damn ancient Red Dragon!”
The leading Fire Giant exclaid, leaping onto a Fire Drake and urging it non-stop.
Dragonkin were scarce in the Fire Elental Plane, despite the favorable climate for Red Dragons here.
Many Red Dragons had attempted to establish fortresses in this place, but even they found it hard to prevent their treasures from lting, forcing them to relocate either to Hell or return to the Material Plane.
“Roar—”
“It’s you—who want to kill my retainers?”
Cassius roared to the sky, spreading his broad wings, unleashing the overwhelming Dragon’s Might of an Ancestral Dragon.
Instantly, many Fire Drakes fainted on the spot, tumbling down from the sky.
These creatures with diluted dragon blood had no resistance before a being whose lineage was far superior.
“No!”
“Quick…run!”
“This is an enemy we cannot defeat, everyone retreat!”
The Fire Giant also felt his body tremble, but lacking the Dragon Vein, he could barely maintain flight.
The remaining officers of the Fire Giants and hundreds of Fire Lizard Plunderers fled towards “Ironforge City.”
Then, sothing even more despairing happened to them.
The colossal Red Dragon didn’t pursue them, only slowly opening its enormous maw.
What it expelled was not the familiar Fla Breath—but ice.
[Extre Cold Ice Explosure Spell]
Intensely cold frost cascaded like a waterfall, nearly engulfing half the army.
This type of ice shaping spell was highly ineffective in the Fire Elental Plane, but Cassius forcibly cast it with the power of the “Eternal Frost Horn,” tamagic effects, and extraordinary charisma.
For life forms native to this place, it was lethal.
Their scorching Flas of Life were instantly frozen and extinguished.
By the ti the surrounding intense fire elent lted the frost, those fire elental creatures had long lost their lives.
“This…how is this possible?”
“But it’s a Red Dragon!”
The Fire Giant officer stood in a daze, his expression vacant; he had never seen a dragon like this.
“Quick, hurry! We must report this to Lord Emir!”
He turned his head, increasing his flying speed, trailing wisps of smoke behind him.
Soon, the space gradually twisted, and a portal appeared before him.
Fire Giants were combatant warriors and high-ranking elental creatures, naturally endowed with powerful spellcasting abilities, possessing innate spells like extraplanar teleportation, Fire Ignition Spell, Fireworks Spell, and more.
But at this mont, it was too late to cast spells.
Roaring flas appeared behind the Fire Giant, promptly coalescing into the gigantic body of the dragon.
The forming portal shattered abruptly, evaporating into nothingness.
Despair adorned the Fire Giant’s face. He conjured flas in his hand, but they were utterly ineffective against the Red Dragon, even flowing directly into the crystalline core of his chest.
“No, you can’t kill !”
“I am a Fire Giant!”
“Sizzle—Boom!”
Blinding lightning storms surrounded Cassius, suddenly expanding and engulfing the entire Fire Giant army.
“No—”
“Help—”
The Fire Giants, who had earlier blustered about, were concentrated by the frenzied lightning, turning into unchecked primordial fire.
“Run quickly!”
“Lord Izal is dead!”
“By the Lord of Flas, flee!”
But their words sounded like the crackling of burning to Cassius.
The Fire Giant’s troops continued to flee, utterly disregarding everything in this near-massacre battle.
“Interesting.”
Cassius flapped his wings, hovering in mid-air, pinching the fla with his claw tips.
This was the essence of the Fire Giant.
Nearly all elental creatures possessed such a core—this Fla of Life.
“It looks quite delicious.”
The Red Dragon opened his enormous maw, swallowing the Fla of Life and instantly feeling the surge of energy filling him.
Cassius’s eyes lit up. These fire elental creatures’ flas seed like excellent food for him.
“By the Lord of Flas!”
“Lord Izal, he, he was eaten by him!”
“Izal was eaten!”
The remaining Fire Giants and Fire Lizards scread in terror.
In the Fire Elental Plane, there were indeed cases of elental creatures devouring each other, but a noble Fire Giant being “eaten” was exceedingly rare.
Cassius let out a pleased roar and unleashed the Ninth Tier Spell, [Dragon’s Absorption].
Imdiately, a black hole-like vortex appeared in the Red Dragon’s gaping maw, greedily drawing in all surrounding energy.
The Flas of Life from the Fire Lizards and Fire Drakes that Cassius had previously killed were sucked into his maw.
Witnessing this scene, the Fire Giants and Fire Lizards fled with even greater desperation, ready to risk their lives.
“This, this…”
“By the Lord of Flas, they’ve all been eaten!”
“Help— I don’t want to be eaten by this Red Dragon!”
However, while feasting, Cassius didn’t forget about them, waving his sharp claws from a distance.
[Scratch Technique]
“Swish—”
Ashes flew.
A claw-shaped force field appeared suddenly, slicing hundreds of Fire Lizards into pieces.
The ground seed to be plowed, with claw marks several dozen ters long and a few feet deep, scattered with the broken bodies of the Fire Lizards.
“Quickly, go!”
“Let these Fire Lizards buy us so ti!”
And those Fire Giant leaders took advantage of their ability to fly as smoke to escape, continuing towards Ironforge City.
But Cassius wouldn’t let go of such a delectable al at hand.
The Red Dragon ruthlessly tore through space, appearing behind the Fire Giants with dazzling flas accompanying him.
“No—”
“I don’t want to be eaten!”
The Fire Giants wailed, but it was to no avail.
The Red Dragon’s spell vortex in his maw drew in the Fire Giants with imnse force, rendering their desperate struggles ineffective.
Amid a few screams, the last mbers of this army vanished.
For them, it was a hopeless battle; the battlefield was like a slaughterhouse, and the Red Dragon was a masterful butcher.
There was no hope.
All attacks were useless and even fueled the enemy, while they themselves could be easily destroyed.
But for the Red Dragon, it was an effortless feast; his enemies were re food.
“If I eat five hundred Fire Giants… I might gather enough energy for my next advancent.”
Cassius felt the slight fullness of energy in his belly, showing a contented smile.
Since his bloodline advancent, he hadn’t felt this “full” in a long ti.
The battlefield before the Brass Fortress lay in ruins, the army sent by the Fire Giants completely annihilated.
Only the massive Red Dragon stood on the ground of ashes and scorched earth, spreading his wide wings.
“Your Majesty!”
“Long live His Majesty Cassius!”
“Victory to the Ashen Emperor!”
In the distance, many soldiers of the Imperial Vanguard knelt on the scorching ground, ignoring their burned knees.
They raised their rifles, cheering madly, their eyes filled with fanaticism and worship.
This was their emperor, the symbol of victory, the embodint of strength.
This Dragon Emperor, as always, rcilessly destroyed their enemies, just like any other war before.
“His Majesty Cassius…”
Tears of excitent stread down Selcan’s face, instantly evaporated by the high temperature.
He never thought that after being sent to this remote and dangerous battlefield—he would see the Ashen Emperor and even receive his personal aid.
But Glen and a group of Fire Dwarfs stared blankly at the Red Dragon’s figure, their Bronze Hamrs and Bronze Spears clanking to the ground, no one daring to pick them up.
“He, he ate those Fire Giants.”
“So, do you think… His Majesty is full now?”
Glen stamred, his legs trembling—the scene of the Red Dragon ravenously devouring the army now deeply imprinted in his brass-crafted mind.
Those were Fire Giants!
The Fire Elental Plane’s most powerful and proud creatures, possessing vast territories and enslaving many Fire Dwarfs and Fire Lizards.
But they had beco the Red Dragon’s snack, without even a chance to resist.
This Fire Dwarf noble had just believed that His Majesty Cassius was a different kind of Red Dragon, a benevolent ruler.
But now, it seed he had been sowhat naive.
