Chapter 519: 507 The Empire’s Crushing Defeat_1
The Shadow Lord shamelessly fled.
Though fleeing is disgraceful, it is effective.
Although he had lost most of his body and power now, he could quickly recover to his peak strength with some time.
In this continent, he still had a certain number of followers and temples, so he believed that obtaining materials to restore his power would not be difficult.
Compared to being sent back to the realm of gods and then trying to re-enter this plane, this was already the shortest way to spend time.
The Shadow Lord made no attempt to hide his movements, and seeing him about to run away, Konoheim immediately cast another spell at him.
Unfortunately, it was a bit too late, and with the Shadow Lord being prepared, it was difficult to achieve satisfactory results.
However, with the current state of the Shadow Lord, it was unrealistic for him to do anything more to Blackstone Floating City.
Even though the Shadow Lord was determined to escape, Moray would not let him succeed easily.
Similar to before, Moray prepared many surprises for the Shadow Lord.
After the Shadow Lord successfully escaped from the Blackstone Floating City, he was already in a half-dead state.
“Bloody hell…”
After maintaining a safe distance from Blackstone Floating City, the Shadow Lord turned around and spat heavily at it.
At this moment, the Shadow Lord was extremely angry due to his previous encounters.
But soon, he noticed something abnormal.
At this time, shouldn’t the Mother of Evil Dragons and the Spider Queen be fighting that strange Silver Dragon?
But now, aside from the armies fighting below, it was far too quiet.
One should know that with the strength of Otto and the three gods, even a simple snap of their fingers would make a thunderous noise.
And before the Shadow Lord could think about it any further, he found that an ordinary-looking Silver Dragon was rapidly approaching him.
Hmm, why would a proper Silver Dragon appear in this place?
Could it be that the Platinum Dragon King also condescended to join forces with the Mother of Evil Dragons and others to attack that strange Silver Dragon?
With a little thought, this possibility seemed a bit high, otherwise, why couldn’t he see that strange Silver Dragon and the Mother of Evil Dragons and the others at all?
It seemed that after achieving their goal – the death of the strange Silver Dragon – the other gods retreated.
Although the idea of the Shadow Lord was good, reality was quite cruel.
The Silver Dragon flying toward him may look like a proper Silver Dragon, but it was actually Otto, who was too lazy to reshape and decorate his appearance.
Just as the Shadow Lord was about to greet Otto, a thick blue beam of light burst from the latter’s mouth and directly hit the Shadow Lord’s body.
“Aaargh…”
As expected, the Truth Breath used by Otto himself was much more powerful than the one he left in Blackstone Floating City beforehand.
Poor Shadow Lord had barely escaped from Blackstone Floating City, only to be turned into a blue crystal amid his screams before even realizing what was going on.
Then, he was swallowed by Otto, who had suffered significant losses.
At this point, the four gods who had come fiercely had all withdrawn. No one in their surroundings could stop Otto anymore.
After confirming that Sofia and the others were alright, Otto let out a cold laugh towards the fierce battlefield below.
Although he didn’t have to intervene, and Gaz and the others could quickly complete their assigned tasks, Otto didn’t mind speeding things up…
Of course, he didn’t need to act personally, because after the intense battle with the Mother of Evil Dragons and the others, Otto needed sleep and energy replenishment the most now.
Aside from Otto, the overwhelming power was now in the hands of the Blackstone Floating City.
Although it was unknown why the last Floating City belonged to the Empire, the Blood Fortress did not appear nearby.
But this did not prevent the Blackstone Floating City from obtaining absolute control over the airspace and then launching devastating attacks on the enemies below from a high vantage point.
If it were a normal time, Otto would surely introduce policies for preferential treatment of prisoners, but it didn’t seem very practical for the current situation.
First of all, the Children of War have practically become heartless humans, at most a war machine blindly following orders.
Even if the situation is extremely unfavorable, even if it is a hopeless situation, they would never choose to surrender.
On the other hand, the Dore Army from the Dark Domain, followers of the Spider Goddess, are unlikely to easily succumb to a new master due to their absolute faith in her.
Of course, the main reason is that they fear retaliation from the Spider Goddess in the future.
After all, her petty nature is well-known among various planes.
However, what surprised Otto was that some traitors appeared among the Colorful Evil Dragons that had fought against the Undead Dragons.
Most of them were adult, strong or old Black Dragons, Green Dragons, and White Dragons.
The arrogant, or rather, overly ambitious Red Dragons and Blue Dragons were mostly stubborn to the end.
Soon, such stubborn dragons were either ground to the earth by the combined efforts of the Undead Dragons and the concentrated bombardment of Blackstone Floating City or they simply fled without looking back.
Although the Colorful Evil Dragons had some faith in the Mother of Evil Dragons, they fundamentally differed from the Dore below.
Usually, during the sacrificial period, it was already considered pious if they were willing to offer a silver coin to the Mother of Evil Dragons.
Expecting these rebellious dragons to maintain their respect for the Mother of Evil Dragons at this critical moment seemed unrealistic.
In the end, with the strong intervention of Blackstone Floating City and the sun setting, the fighting finally came to an end.
The Children of War were annihilated, and a small number of ordinary humans were captured, most of whom had surrendered voluntarily.
The Dore Army had been completely defeated, and many of the Spider Goddess’ die-hard fans fought to the death. The remaining Dore were captured as slaves, who would then shine in their new roles.
With the Soaring Dragon Legion completely taking over Lima Fortress, this large-scale battle was fully resolved in just one day.
The Empire had suffered another disastrous defeat, and had even lost more than half of its national power in this battle.
In the face of this desperate situation, any rational person would not think that there was any hope left for the Empire.
After losing the sturdy shield of Lima Fortress and the sharp spears of the Children of War, the Empire was as defenseless as a child in front of the Soaring Dragon Legion.
It seemed that the following events would not require Otto’s participation any further.
