Nothing can harm him.
Bullets, mortars, and artillery shells ricocheted off Winkel's thick [hoard armor] as the dragon destroyed the island's walled defenses. No one can stand before the power of true treasure.
"I am gold wrapped around your lead!" the evil dragon boasted loudly as he pushed down a watchtower. The stone hit the shore and crushed the little doppelganger guarding the watchtower. Behind him, the ships of his followers landed on the beach, chanting Va'quir's name, and his success emboldened the dragons in the sky.
[Imperial Authority], [Healing Mantle], [Master of Silence] and [High Priest] activate! Your (Ancient Pharaoh's Dragon Ring) cast [Elemental Protection]!
The emergence of the dragon turns the smallest kobolds into self-regenerating killing machines, imbuing their weapons with divine energy. Although salvoes of artillery fire slowed their advance, they continued forward, destroying any gremlins unfortunate enough to get in their way.
Winkle landed on the ground and led the charge, using his body to cover his troops while destroying the cannon; a real dragon led the charge from the front.
A group of four giant elven hounds emerged from behind the mural and attacked Maggot, stopping his rampage. Undaunted, Winkle met them with swift fists, tearing a beast in half with each blow.
You to [Fairy Hound]!
The claws of the armor were reinforced with silver, cold iron, and star metal; second-rate, dull metals, but alloys that the fairies feared more than gold.
What’s even better is that every time a monster is killed, the monster will drop a prop! A gold statue, a gem, and a sword!

would get richer for every victim he claimed. "I am the shining heart of the universe!" he roared after destroying the pack of hounds, reveling in his greed. "The greatest financial wizard in the world!"
These were all novel boasts unknown to the Dragon Clan, but they suited the far-sighted emperor very well.

A sizeable hole was dug in the fortifications and most of the defensive artillery was single-handedly dismantled. Without suppressive fire, the Fae's slaves could no longer prevent the landing of most of the Vak'ul fleet. Mimics and bone ships crash into the shore, pouring out minions.
Jules the Shroud supports an army of the undead through spellcasting, while Allison the Unlucky and Tinfoil Rollo lead a second force. The ghouls wave their hands and release a burst of necromantic energy, turning the fairy beasts into undead hounds without touching them; the golems simply charge towards the defenses, smashing through them, and continue on their way; not tasty Allison restores the kobold to full health and summons solid stone creatures to assist.
Pictured above, Manlin Victor throws thunderbolts at the fairies' remaining aerial powers, surrounded by vampires and demons from Happyland. It soon became clear that the tide of the battle was changing, and not in the fairies' favor.
So, with the city walls destroyed, terrible reinforcements emerged from the fairy forest behind the fortifications. A group of one-eyed ogres, doppelgangers, and animated trees swarmed in and surrounded V&V's ground forces.
Much to Wink's chagrin, these little doppelgangers all carry Mort's bottles. As soon as they saw the dragon they opened them, sucking in the air inside; the Whispering Emperor immediately activated his [Spell Purification], remembering his last confrontation with War Ravi.
You avoid being involved in [a bottle of keel glue]!
Several of Winkle's relatives, without his iron will and anti-magic defenses, had their massive bodies sucked into the small jars; the others all fell back, though more in surprise than horror.
"No bottle can hold a dragon!" Winkle encouraged them loudly before unleashing his brothers on the doppelganger. Giants and animated trees tried to interrupt him from the sides, but his minions stepped forward and surrounded the larger monster in sheer numbers.
Charisma check successful!
Long's bravado inspired his compatriots, who supported him with aerial bombardments. Within seconds, rain of fire, lightning, acid rain, and other elements destroyed the slaves' reinforcements, forcing them to flee inland to survive. Unfortunately, the doppelganger holding the bottle manages to escape, prioritizing a brutal capture rather than winning the fight.
Meanwhile, a terrible sound echoed as the storm battered the coast. A dozen long metal arrows fell from the sky. Wind Spear.
"Minion, follow me!" Winkle ordered. He and his companions shot down a few missiles, but it was not enough. They rained down across the battlefield, releasing powerful winds that turned solid stone into mush.
Unlike the Light Arrows, these projectiles don't destroy the entire area, nor do they kill the dragon instantly, but they hurt. Ignoring friendly fire, they dropped haphazardly to the ground, hitting dragons and giants. The explosion tore kobolds into bloody puddles, tore living trees to shreds, and caused several dragons to make emergency landings with a broken wing.

's entire world becomes a blur of explosions, kobolds, and ghouls hiding behind or beneath his muscular body. To his fury, many of his servants failed to find cover in time and dropped like flies; his [Healing Cloak] regeneration could not protect them from such a powerful force.
At least when the bombing was over, the beach looked like the destroyed surface of a cursed moon planet.
"Kid!" screamed Pink Ranger, tending to an injured Red Warrior next to her teammates. "Kid!"
They killed the kobold rangers again?!
Pictured above, Manlin Victor and his Zmey fly towards the source of the attack and are nearly shot down; it's a non-stop rain of destruction as more shells emerge from the sea.
"Dazzling theatre!" Winkle summoned a golden cage around the coast to protect his surviving entourage from a second bombardment. Even his mighty arena was shaken by the onslaught. Unfortunately, the dragon cannot activate his more destructive abilities without risking friendly fire. "Manling Victor, do it!"
"I'm here!" his man of action shouted, and Gorinich circled furiously in the air, dodging wind spears and trying to keep his rider alive.
Suddenly, the attack ended as suddenly as it had begun, with an explosion erupting underwater. A swarm of shark beasts gather around the source of the attack, while a dark shape begins to appear; a familiar face leads the amphibious reinforcements.
"Jaja!" Manlin Victor shouted from above, Winkle's keen hearing drowning out the din of battle.
"Vic, you son of a mammal!" the shark fisher raised his spear and surfed the waves. "You can't sink an island without me!"
Powerful tentacles lifted an imprisoned monster from the waves, and Vankel finally laid eyes on his attacker.
A dolphin.
This is a huge black metal dolphin with an iron tower-like fin on its back. The creature has tiny metal legs, fangs, an eyeless metal mouth, and holes all over its body.
The creature holding a metallic dolphin was half out of the water, almost as big as Winkle himself. The beast appeared to be some kind of giant centaur, with the upper half of a misshapen, green, fish-like hide and the lower half of a sea monster. Its hideous face inspired fear among the servants on shore, although Winkle's presence calmed them.
Charisma check successful! [Crazy] Negated!
"Lord Dagon, Lord Winkle!" the Shark Man shouted on the battlefield. "Lord Wenquier, this is Lord Dagon, the first descendant of the Moon Man!"
The giant fish let out a wail as its tentacles struggled to capture the giant metallic dolphin. The Dagon tried to throw it onto the shore and it stopped moving, but the huge machine fired back with a stream of cannonballs from the bullet holes in its back.
The Moonman child let out a scream as the cannonball nearly blew off his face and threw the dolphin back; the machine sank back into the sea, with Sharkmon chasing after it. Dagon roared and returned to the depths with his servants.
Seeing this, Prydan's remaining air forces panicked and retreated, with the exception of the puppets. Even so, the machines were outnumbered and were quickly destroyed by Long and Manling Victor's forces.
"Move!" Winkle ordered, dismantling his Dazzling Theater and moving his troops further inland. "Don't let any one go!" Get the dragon bone bottle back!"
The coast is his, and soon the whole island will follow him.
The battle ended in victory, albeit at a high cost.
They captured the beach, and thus a landing site at Pladen; but the coast was strewn with corpses, destroyed ships, puppet parts, craters, and ruins. The dragons bore the brunt of the carnage, whether from nuclear bombs or aerial bombardments, but the V&V Empire also recorded thousands more deaths.
"There is too much to do." Victor sighed, and by this time Juriris was already trying to raise the dead as undead labor; having found his [Black Holy Grail], the minister would soon help him. Allison joins in, but provides healing to the injured; with her new level, her team healing spells have been improved enough to help many recover quickly.
However, she arrived too late and there were not many minions.
"He was too young!" Pink cried over Red's body, and the kobold rangers formed a wake circle around their leader's corpse; half of his chest had been torn apart by the Wind Spear. Buzz Jerry was at the wake, holding a V&V Empire flag and humming "Hoa
The Battle of d. "He's too young!"
"Why is she like this?" Victor asked doubtfully. "I mean, he just died. It's not the end of the world."
This isn't even the first time this has happened to this team, as the blue and yellow can attest.
"Death lost its luster after the first resurrection," Alison commented, though she sounded only half-serious.
"Pink said it was the bard's job to stage a tragic death scene," Black replied, while his teammates continued to cry over Red's body. "She didn't get a chance to help you, boss, so she's making up for lost time."
oh. All right.
While Winkle and most of the surviving dragons cleared out the remnants of Prydain further north, Victor used his [Black Chalice] to gather a group of goblins. This earned him more attention than he ever imagined, from unlikely sources.
"Vinker's chief of staff can cure the death of his servants!" shouted a Linnom, like the medieval peasants who worshiped him before the discovery of electricity.
"I can't believe that the Minions' repair technology has improved so much while I've been sleeping for a century..." A real dragon muttered in surprise. "What about the lead poisoning, Vaquel's minions? Have they found a cure?"
"Sort of," the minister replied, and the dragons murmured among themselves, pondering this wonderful discovery. Victor didn't dare tell them the spell [turn gold into lead].
"What about the dragon's birth defect? Can it be undone?"
This is Victor's next mission. Upon discovering the body of the first dragon that had not been completely vaporized by the nuclear bomb, the Prime Minister covered it with black blood.
Your (Black Holy Grail cannot improve [Green Demon Maggot].
…Why? Because doesn’t the dragon’s soul go to the promised land? Considering his greed and pride, he would think differently.
Anyway, Victor attempted to use the [Reanimator] to resurrect the corpse into a normal sentient undead creature, only to receive a blue screen of death.
Error 404 The soul is missing!
No soul found?
This is exactly the same as Bing Feng's death.
Victor frowned, and he frowned even more when he realized that Juriris could easily raise servants killed by war beasts and firearms. Was it because this maggot was killed by a nuclear bomb? The other dragons were killed by Odius' puppets, was there something preventing them from being resurrected? He had to verify it as soon as possible.
But all in all, unlike Victor's joke, it seems like a lot of people will continue to die today.
His failure also dismayed the dragons present; they looked at the body count and the corpses of their brothers with horrified expressions. Victor guessed this was the first time most of them had witnessed such massacre.
Kia chose this moment and rode on Julie's back. "Vic, I'm glad you can come." (Paladin) said, climbing down from the dragon's back. Many of the maggots present reacted by turning their backs to the newcomers, as if denying their existence; Victor guessed they wouldn't be sharing a bus with minions anytime soon.
"Hey, I'm Daddy Qianlong," Dark Elf Kevin said as he landed next to [Paladin]. Unlike Chia, he flew here using his own magic.
Victor immediately caught up with him. "Stupid dad?" he asked Kevin while invading his personal space. "Why do you say that? You think I'm hiding a child?"
"Calm down, Vic, he's just kidding!" Kia pulled him away from her uneasy teammate.
"Oh," the minister calmed down in disappointment. "Don't scare me like that. How about a fight?"
"We suffered heavy losses, but our troops landed in Essex," Kia explained. "King Roland established a permanent stronghold where we await reinforcements."
According to the maps they collected, Prydan covered Great Britain and Ireland on Earth; with the V&V fleet landing in Hampshire. The two large islands are heavily guarded. Odius' lair could be located in any of these locations, and considering how difficult it is to capture an area even with dragon support, conquering the country will be an uphill struggle.
At present, the coalition intends to adopt pincer tactics to ensure the security of the southern area of Pryden. This would make it easier for them to push north and organize a landing on the second island.
"I want to avenge you!" Pink cried loudly on the red corpse, and then wiped away the tears. "I've had enough, boss."
"That's a great death scene, Pi
k!" Julie told Bard Magazine that she immediately understood the situation. She even pretended to cry over Red's death.
Victor took a second to splash red with his [Black Holy Grail]. Recovering, the leader of the kobold rangers stood up. "I'm glad to live in a country where death is only a temporary inconvenience," Reade declared. "Thank you, sir."
"No need to thank me," Victor replied. "Thank you for your health insurance."
"I guess that rules out suicide as a permanent solution," Magician Kevin deadpanned, and Kia nudged him with her elbow.
"The Immortal Revolution cannot be stopped." Julius cleared his throat from behind, his tone filled with smug satisfaction.
"Revival makes me hungry," Red said, looking hungrily at Pink's overfed cat.
"Zhizhi helped us!" the poet protected her cat. "He protected me from the explosion!"
"Zhizhi is food! He must die!"
Victor feels that they have just spearheaded some kind of genocide against cats and feels a twinge of remorse. "Any news about the submarine that attacked us?" the minister asked, sending a report to his companions through [Scarlet Research]. "Jaja's amphibious force gave chase, but had to order a retreat after being ambushed by sea war beasts."
"According to my prophecy, this is a Typhoon-class Russian submarine that was turned into a puppet by magic," Kevin explained, attracting many people's attention. “Isn’t there anyone on Earth interested in weapons of mass destruction?”
"No," Allison replied with a hint of condemnation. Meanwhile, Victor was stunned. The precursor turned the nuclear submarine into a puppet? No wonder they can fight the Cuckoos half a continent away!
"These things can hold up to twenty ballistic missiles, each with ten nuclear warheads," the mage continued. In short, their missiles will launch 10 smaller missiles over a certain point and target more ground. If used wisely, this entire arsenal could potentially wipe out all civilized lands in Outremund. "
"Even the missiles used against us by Hamelin do not fall into this category," Kia noted. "All these missiles, including those targeting Mu
mu
i
The ones are all modified wind spears carrying only one nuclear warhead. "
"So..." Victor continued uneasily. "Where are the real missiles?"

A massive piece of magical armor by Vai
queue
K
ightsba
Made from e's legendary hoard, crafted through magic and power stones. This massive dragon-shaped armor is so heavy that only powerful maggots can wear it, although its magic does not affect flight or movement.
In addition to high defense, Cellar Armor has a variety of abilities. The wearer can transmute matter into gold at will with a Charisma check (this is a [Transformation] effect), though only an amount equal to the weight of the armor can be made at a time; once per day, the wearer can transform matter into gold from the elemental plane of Earth. The face summons molten gold that surrounds the armor in the form of a flood; the armor is immune to metal weapons, except those made of adamantium and star metal.
Finally, the armor's claws and tail are reinforced with cold iron, silver and star metal; the [Fairy] type is therefore particularly vulnerable to physical attacks by the wielder.
