BXBX NOVEL Chapter 320 Losses
"Even if she is there, it does not matter. Kill everyone! The two traitors can die as well! The Prince only asked for us to bring the man back alive." General Uo did not have orders to bring back the princesses.
"Understood!" The soldier quickly ran off to give out orders.
General Uo looked at this mission as nothing more than him walking to another region to squash a bug. To him, this was a job a few underlings should be able to take care of. But since orders were orders, he would just do as he was told.
Along the south, the elves marched in rows with a young woman riding on the back of a griffin. Her eyes were cold as she strode forward with the massive amount of dragons in front of her. "General Yaya, is this really okay? I heard Princess Noa is there…."
"Don\'t think and follow orders. Do you want to have your head removed by the crown? We are soldiers and nothing more. We were selected to fight this battle, so must do it even if it means going against her highness. Right now, the elven court had already called her highness a traitor. If you wish to have a home to return to after this war, then do as you are told. If we are lucky, the dragons will do the job for us." General Yaya was once a Noa supporter, but now…. She was nothing but a low ranking general who was on the verge of being demoted again.
They slowly made their way toward destiny city. In the tree\'s hiding in plain sight but still hidden enough to never be noticed, Riri of the Pixie clan pressed on her ear piece and sent a message out.
A thick mist covered the area in the front of the mass of dragons. The dragons did not notice anything was wrong in the slightest until they began to be attacked by magic from all sides.
*Roar!*
The drakes roared out before firing streams of fire in all directions. The fairies and pixies all scattered, but some, unfortunately, did not escape the flames. Riri began receiving reports of fallen shortly after. She bit her lip as she yelled out: "Retreat and attack again. Some of you may fall, but we need to make a dent in the enemy line!"
"Yes!" Even if they wished to mourn the dead, they had no time to. They could only keep attacking as their livelihood was now on the line.
They continued to alternate attacks with retreating. Tens of fairies and pixies had already been killed due to the wide range of the dragon\'s flames. Those who failed to put up a barrier in time were cooked alive.
At the first defensive line, Blake was listening to the reports that were being called out with a dark expression. His people were already dying on the battlefield. While they were killing off large numbers of dragons, the numbers were still too much. Blake wanted to call them back but was stopped when a hand gripped his shoulder. "Brother, it\'s hard, but they must continue."
Blake looked at Bret and clenched his fists even tighter. After taking a deep breath and letting it out, he nodded his head. "Make sure every name of every fallen member of Destiny City is taken down. We will make sure they are remembered for generations to come."
"It\'s already being done…." Bret pointed to a few fox girls who had tears in their eyes as they wrote down names. They were too young to fight up front, and when the battle reached here, they would move to the next defensive line to continue taking down names.
The same thing was going on at the southern side of the base as well. This side had Faana and Noa as the leaders. It was also the side with the biggest chance of being quickly defeated if things went well. But the pixies and fairies who were doing their best and giving their lives to try to slow the dragons down as much as possible were all fighting with determination.
The sounds of explosions filled the air as they cast many spells into the mist to take out as many ground dragons as possible. But the real threat was the ones in the air. They were the ones that Blake worried about the most. "It\'s time….." Faana took a deep breath as she looked over at Olinia and the group of fairies and pixies who were to take on the skies.
"Sister Faana, be careful. The black drones are here to protect you and Sister Olinia. So no matter what, do not make Blake sad…." Noa leaned over and gave both girls a kiss before letting them take to the air. The fairies and Pixies all had muskets floating next to them. Some had four hovering around them. They were the main air squad.
"I will burn down every wyvern and fire dragon I see. My flames will rain ashes down on the enemies below." Faana gave herself a small pep talk before taking off. Her group followed behind.
On the other side, Blake kissed Mina, Clance, Olia, and Yiki on the lips before they rose into the air. He looked at their determined expressions and hoped that none of them would die. He closed his eyes and pressed his earpiece. "All forward teams switch to sky combat. Take out wyverns and fire dragons!"
"Yes, Sir!" Riri yelled out as the same order was given on the other side. The battle had just started, and they had already suffered losses. Blake knew this was not going to be an easy battle like it was with the orcs. This was the dragonic and the eleven clans, two clans who were already very powerful. They had lost fifty pixies, and fairies total from both teams. This was a heavy loss to both races. He just hoped this number would not grow even more.
