Chapter 645 Rain of fire (3)
When they saw these flames raining down, everyone on the battlefield started to panic.
After all, there was no doubt that these flames falling down on them would cause a lot of damage to them.
So they were all trying to find a way to get out of the way.
But everyone soon realized just who these flames were aimed at.
These flames were falling outside of the makeshift fortress, they were falling on the armies of the Beirut Kingdom.
The soldiers did what they could to avoid the flames that were falling down on them, but they were just too grouped up to avoid it completely. The flames rained down on their formation and hit quite a few of them.
But it didn't do too much damage in the end since there were those with shields in every formation that had blocked these flames. The flame breath had been too scattered as it fell down that it wasn't as strong as it could have been.
After the wyvern released its flame breath on them, it suddenly started flying back up into the sky.
When it did, there were many archers that raised their bows to aim at the wyvern.
Since it had already attacked them, there was no point in thinking that this would end peacefully.
Since they had been attacked, they needed to take revenge on this wyvern.
So they were going to shoot it down.
An eye for an eye in a sense.
The archers had aimed their arrows at the wyvern, but they didn't get a chance to shoot in the end.
That was because there was another deafening roar that rang out before they could release their bowstrings.
After this deafening roar, there were more large figures that suddenly came out of the clouds. However, that wasn't the most important thing about these figures that had broken through the clouds.
The most important thing was the glowing flames that were gathering in their mouths.
These wyverns that had just broken through the clouds had been reeling back their heads and gathering a flame breath just like the first wyvern.
Once they came down far enough, these wyverns suddenly released these breaths down on them.
Even if they had launched their arrows, they wouldn't have been able to break through this rain of flames that was falling down on them. The flames just completely incinerated the arrows that hit them.
There was no resistance at all as the flames turned the arrows into ashes.
Then the flames rained down on them.
This time, they weren't able to block the flames with the shields that they had since there were just too many flames.
The only thing that they could do was run as fast as they could to avoid the flames that were falling down on them.
It was just too bad that there was no way that they would be able to dodge all of the flames that were falling down. There were too many flames and there were too many of them to run fast enough.
So in the end, it became a scene of hell on earth as the flames started burning the ground that they were on and burning them along with it.
In no time at all, around half of the Beirut Kingdom soldiers had suffered injuries of varying degrees. At least 20% of all the soldiers were no longer in a condition to fight.
This was just from a single attack from the wyverns…and the wyverns were still flying there in the air.
After this one attack, they were finally able to see just how many wyverns there were.
There were several hundred wyverns that were flying there in the sky and with how big these wyverns were, they seemed to block out the sun above them.
This was a terrifying scene no matter how one looked at it, but it was most terrifying for the Beirut Kingdom army since they were the ones that were facing these wyverns in battle.
None of them knew why these wyverns were so intent on attacking them, but there was nothing that they could do about it. After all, the wyverns were here and they were attacking them.
They couldn't just let themselves be killed by the wyverns, so they could only do what they could to fight back.
But…the wyverns weren't fighting like how wyverns normally fought.
"How? How is it possible that they know how to fight like this?"
That was all the Beirut Kingdom general could say when he saw how the wyverns were acting.
Instead of diving down at them like normal, the wyverns were using diversion tactics where they would send small groups of wyverns to draw out platoons from the army. Once these platoons were drawn out, other groups of wyverns would suddenly attack them.
It was slowly whittling away at the Beirut Kingdom army.
Eventually, they couldn't take it anymore and there were deserters that ran off.
But instead of chasing the deserters like they normally would, they continued to attack the main group. It was almost as if they were protecting the deserters so they couldn't be caught and punished.
The wyverns knew the weak points of their formation, so they would attack them to make sure that they wouldn't be able mount any form of counterattack.
The wyverns were slowly torturing them to death, there was nothing that the Beirut Kingdom army could do at all…
The Beirut Kingdom general watched all of this with a grim look on his face, but there was nothing that he could do except give the order, "Retreat! Retreat!"
They couldn't do a single thing against the wyverns, so they could only run like rats.
But before they could run…
"Charge!"
General Killock was leading a group of cavalry to charge into the Beirut Kingdom army.
Their lines had been completely ravaged by the wyverns, so they weren't able to stop General Killocks group of cavalry at all.
It was like wheat being collected by the scythe as they cut right into the Beirut Kingdom army.
