Chapter 169: 167 Infiltrate Red Copper Castle_l
Translator: 549690339
The bizarre-looking silver dragon seemed to be laughing at him through the huge hole in the center of the gate, as if mocking his self-righteousness.
As the ugly hawkman had said, the Red Copper Dwarves were insignificant in front of the great Silver Dragon Lord.
“Boom…”
The damned Silver Dragon continued to relentlessly destroy the Red Copper
Castle’s gate. Its foreclaws were long, looking almost like ax blades attached to its body.
Moreover, they gleamed with a strange luster.
Grand Elder Barn stared at it all with resentment. He swore he had only seen such luster in one place before.
That was the Legendary Warhammer, Flamefire, in the hands of Red Copper King Sorin.
Could it be that the strength of this strange silver dragon’s claws is comparable to that of a legendary weapon?
How was that possible? It just looked like an adult dragon…
But more importantly, the defenses of the Red Copper Castle were useless against it.
Finally regaining his senses, Barn pulled at his paler beard and roared to the nearby scared witless clansmen: “What are you waiting for? Attack! ”
The surrounding Red Copper Dwarves came to their senses, raising their firearms or throwing their battleaxes.
They aimed to attack the seemingly extremely evil silver dragon through the constantly expanding hole in the center of the gate.
Meanwhile, Grand Elder Barn pulled at a familiar face and told the frightened young dwarf: “Tarak, pull yourself together!”
This guy was one of his personal guards, just turning fifty this year. According to the dwarves’ views, this kid had just come of age.
“Gr…Grand Elder…”
Tarak looked uneasy at Barn and then showed a shameful expression on his face.
After witnessing the ferocious silver dragon break through the gates of the Red Copper Castle, he had been panicked for a moment.
When he came back to his senses because of Barn’s voice, he felt ashamed of his own actions.
But Grand Elder Barn had pulled him not to hear his confession. The half-white bearded Red Copper Dwarf clenched his teeth and slapped Tarak’s shoulders.
“Listen, lad! I have a very important mission for you right now!”
Barn looked resentfully at Otto, and then continued to Tarak: “I need you to run back into the Red Copper Castle right now, and take the non-combatant clansmen out through the back door!”
Seeing the most important defense of the Red Copper Castle about to collapse completely, Grand Elder Barn had to prepare for the worst.
Tarak hesitated, “But…but where can we escape to?”
Right next to them were the lands of the Black Iron Dwarves, who would surely reach for their axes and hammers as soon as they saw the Red Copper Dwarves.
Even without the intervention of the Black Iron Dwarves, how could a group of civilian dwarves with no combat ability survive in the harsh Sky Mountains?
Grand Elder Barn took out a badge from his jacket pocket, engraved with a
hammer in the dwarven style.
Grand Elder Barn’s full name was Barn Copperhammer, and this was his clan emblem.
He sighed and handed it to Tarak: “Child, take this and lead our people to seek refuge with the Mountain Dwarves. In light of old ties, they should be willing to take you in.”
“What about you…”
“Don’t worry. Once Sorin returns, we’ll defeat this evil Silver Dragon.”
Grand Elder Barn laughed, “I’m just worried that the aftermath of the battle will affect our family and friends.”Things definitely wouldn’t be as simple as he said, even though Tarak was only fifty years old this year, he was quite clear about this.
He stared deeply at the Grand Elder, then gritted his teeth and made up his mind, putting the bronze hammer with the Warhammer emblem design into his pocket, and left without looking back.
“That’s the right choice…”
Grand Elder Barn nodded with satisfaction, then shouted loudly at the dwarf fighters rushing from the city: “What are you waiting for? Kill that damned Silver Dragon! ”
As a result, more and more flying axes and firearms were aimed at the huge silver dragon.
Although these attacks couldn’t do much serious harm to Otto, he was still annoyed by these pesky little insects.
A hideous dragon head peered through a hole that had been broken through the gate of the Red Copper Castle, then took a deep breath.
“Roar!”
Accompanied by a sky-shaking roar, the furious Thunderflame Breath swept past the entrance.
Many Red Copper Dwarves were directly carbonized upon contact, and if Otto hadn’t closed his mouth in time, things would have been even worse for them.
The reason Otto stopped using Thunderflame Breath wasn’t out of mercy but because he was worried about the fine heavy armor on the dwarves.
After all, most of his followers still lacked proper armor.
So, Otto changed tactics, spewing thick green mist from his mouth.
Wherever the Toxic Breath went, all the Red Copper Dwarves fell to the ground in agony, holding their throats, and soon lost their vitality.
“Cover your noses, quick!”
Left with no choice, Grand Elder Barn shouted and led the remaining tribesmen to retreat continuously.
During the retreat, he witnessed a scene that he would never forget in his life.
The dragon head spewing poisonous mist at the Red Copper Castle rapidly shrank, then was swallowed by the other head of the silver giant dragon after it bit it off.
The bloody wound was almost instantly covered by gorgeous silver scales, while at the same time, the astonishingly long dragon claws began to shrink rapidly as well.
On the other hand, Otto’s dragon tail started to grow rapidly, and the tip even formed a blade-like structure identical to the one of the Legendary Battleaxe he had just swallowed.
Focus all power into the tail, the tip of the axe shone with an eerie glow.
With one swing, Otto’s tail struck the solid door of Red Copper Castle.
The battered iron-wrapped door couldn’t withstand the incredible force, especially given that the tip of Otto’s tail was as strong as the Legendary Battleaxe.
The heavy door that had guarded the Red Copper Dwarves for centuries was split in two under Otto’s tail.
A few more strikes, and it was turned into rubble and ruins.
Is all of this my fault? What have I gotten myself into…
Grand Elder Barn watched all this with bloodshot eyes, as one evil creature after another crawled past the blasted-open gate of the damned Silver Dragon’s side.
Gnolls and Lizardmen roared and rushed madly towards the Red Copper Castle.
Besides them, some tall Ogres and Quilboars, wearing sophisticated weaponry and armor, slowly entered Red Copper Castle.
Wait, that’s the work of the Black Iron Dwarves!
Grand Elder Barn couldn’t believe his eyes as he looked at the Ogres and Quilboars wearing the armor that he recognized..
