Chapter Eighteen - Battle of the Sky

…………

The matter was somewhat unexpected, and it could only be described as bad. Nathanos looked at the latest information sent by Maraton's base. The news - or changes - from all over the world, were known by him at this moment: the barren land was slashed into a canyon by earthquakes, the Feather Moon Fortress of Phellas was flooded by sea water, and the shadow of the wind element plane appeared in the sky at the southern end of the continent.

The appearance of Deathwing can no longer be described as changing the world. It should be said that he is tearing the world apart. The only good news from Kalimdo is that Merriel and Ohahn jointly defeated the ogre Gugar, who advocated the end of the world.

But Nathanos didn't feel relaxed. In just one week, the Twilight Highlands also changed dramatically with the appearance of the World Destroyer. The Twilight Cultists no longer hide, and their camps are everywhere, the most eye-catching of which are Grembato and Twilight Fortress. The former has always appeared in pagans. The latter was on the night after the Cataclysm began, when the moon rose to the highest sky, a strange purple light column soared into the sky in the canyon south of Grembato. The fortress appeared out of thin air before the world.

Of course, the changes in the Eastern Kingdoms were not only the same. I heard that Red Ridge Mountain was destroyed, and a large number of black stone orcs appeared. The burning plains also showed signs of black dragon activity. An island rose below the sea, only a few hundred miles away from Stormwind City. The Alliance and the Horde had already received this news and took action. For Stormwind City King Urien, the biggest blow was that Death Wings visited Stormwind City in person, not only destroyed a large area of ​​city buildings, but also snatched Nefarian's head.

"It's so miserable." Nathanos chuckled and expressed sympathy for the members of the alliance. However, it was not only the alliance that encountered many misfortunes, but the same was true for the tribe. Orgrimmar was attacked by the fire element. The fire element plane appeared in the south of the World Tree of Mount Hygar. The anger of the element will implicate anyone related to it.

In addition, some isolated places were also affected by the catastrophe. The Greymann Wall at the southernmost end of the Silver Pine Forest was destroyed. After many years, Nathanos could finally send people to investigate this human kingdom. However, what he unexpectedly was that Gilness was persecuted by werewolf curses, and the rebellion made the entire kingdom turbulent. The most terrifying thing was not these two points. Originally, Gilness was a country surrounded by mountains and hidden reefs along the coast. With its natural defense, outsiders could hardly threaten Gilness from the sea. However, the recent earthquake and tsunami destroyed the reefs and tore a hole in this natural defense.

Disasters are breaking out everywhere, and military forces are being used everywhere. According to past practice, this extraordinary period should be when the forgotten people take action, and there will be actions. The only difference is that the forgotten people can no longer stay out of this catastrophe.

He had already received the exact news that the Alliance and the Horde would send an army to Twilight Heights.

"Very good, very good." Nathanos couldn't help but close his eyes and enjoy the tranquility before the war. "The show is about to begin." He stood up and left the place, going to prepare for what he needed to deal with Deathwings.

...

Red Dragon Lirastasa patrolled around the Vermillion Barrier and returned to the shelter. When she landed, she turned into a young blood elf and walked towards the tall maple tree in the center of the shelter. She thought that no matter what season, it was, it was so full of vitality.

There are many adult red dragons like her in the shelter. They are all elites of the Red Dragon clan and are responsible for guarding the few dragon eggs here.

"Welcome back, Lirastasa."

The red dragon's elf eyes returned directly in front. After seeing who was greeting her, she smiled jokingly: "I thought you would ask me if I had come back with a mortal body in my mouth this time, Karen."

Her companion Karen, the direct descendant of the Red Dragon Queen, is also the supervisor of the shelter when Alextsa was away. Like her mother, Karen has a heart that is loving to any life and hates unnecessary killing the most. Not long ago, Lilastasa discovered that a mortal actually sneaked into the Vermillion Barrier. The Red Dragon Legion has always been famous for protecting life, but it does not mean that they are easy to mess with.

"It seems you don't, I'm very grateful." Karen's dark purple face showed the same smile. Most red dragons would choose the high elves or human mortal forms, but Karen chose the night elves. His appearance did not match the fiery red robe on his body. "The Wings of Death are back, and the world is on the verge of destruction. The mother heard news that she was rushing here."

"Queen?" Lilastasa was surprised, "Is she worried about us? But the cultists of Twilight Hammer can't do anything to us." When the Red Dragon said this, his eyes couldn't help but widen, and a terrible guess came out of her mouth: "Can... Deathwings... here?"

Karen immediately made a gesture of silence to her and looked around, "Lilas..." Karen sighed, "You are so smart that you really don't know whether it's a good or a bad thing."

"You didn't tell anyone else about this?"

"Do you want to cause panic?" Karen asked. "Only the guardian dragon has the ability to fight the Wings of Death, and the mother is not here at the moment. If Nesario, who is hidden in the dark, knows this, the shelter will be devastated."

Lirastasa just put her arms around her chest and waited without saying a word. "Also, we don't have enough staff and may need help from mortals." Karen said embarrassedly, "but some members do not agree with my proposal."

"I don't agree," said Lirastasa, the word "opposition" almost almost written on her face. "Our members in the wetlands were attacked by mortals. Have you forgotten?"

"I... haven't forgotten!" Karen said helplessly. This happened a few months ago. The shelter sent a Red Dragon member to monitor the canyon road leading to the Twilight Heights. Since then, he has only found his body, covered with the wounds of various weapons, and it seems that it was done by the mercenary group.

"But we cannot generalize the mortal warriors because of this. Don't forget that they helped us at Northrend. Mother also said that we must unite all strength."

"Are you talking about the alliance and the tribe?" Lirastasa raised an eyebrow, "Although the Red Dragon is just asking about mortals, it does not mean that our news is blocked. The alliance and the tribe have already started fighting. Don't you know?"

"They are fighting all the time, and this will not affect their mutual face of the enemy."

Lirastasa was silent for a while, "It seems that I can't convince you anymore, I just hope you won't regret it." The Blood Elf lady turned around and walked a few steps, then turned back into the dragon form and flew out of the shelter. Karen thought to herself that she must have made her angry.

"Forget it, she's not the first one."

"Karen."

The red dragon, the night elf-like figure, turned his head to see the person who called his name. It was a human. "Moostaz? What's the matter?"

"It's a bad thing," said the human, until he approached, Karen noticed Moostaz's eyes trembling, as if trying to hide his emotions. "You'd better go and see it yourself."

Karen knows his partner very well. Moostaz is also one of the few red dragons with a vision. If even he describes something as "bad" as "bad", it only means it's really bad.

"It's okay, brother. We will face any difficulties together, please lead the way."

Two gorgeous red dragons flew into the sky, and Karen noticed that they were approaching Twilight Fortress. He had sent many red dragons to monitor this evil place before, but now, Karen could not feel the existence of his companions. For a moment, his heart was raised to his throat. Moostaz said things were bad.

"Look!" The red dragon leading the way could no longer cover up the anger and pain.

Karen even saw the flames that could not be restrained in Moostaz's mouth, but when he witnessed everything with his own eyes, the red dragon, which had always been calm, almost ran away on the spot.

Below, in the fortress of Twilight Hammer, red dragons were hanging everywhere, and the scene was terrifying and terrible. Karen noticed that his heart was beating fast, so fast that he suffocated.

"This group of people... killed our compatriots and dismembered them!" The red dragon roared loudly, with tears in his eyes. He saw several red dragon corpses slumped in the mud, his wings and tails were cruelly cut off, and some were hung on the gallows by the owlheads. The reason why Karen was furious was not only watching his brothers and sisters being killed, but more because they did not receive the respect they deserved even if they died. "These beasts!"

Alextasa's descendants were about to rush down to release their anger, but Moostaz stopped him and shouted to him: "Are you crazy? They are just trying to provoke us. So many of our compatriots have been killed by them, what can you do alone? You are going to die."

Karen bit his lower lip and thought hard, and he could not feel anything except sadness. Moostazfei also said something he couldn't understand. The red dragon raised his head and let out a painful scream. The shrill roar teared the air and made the sky tremble.

"Okay, Karen." Moostaz grabbed Karen's left forearm with his front paws, "We were discovered and must leave here immediately."

Several Twilight Dragons hovering over Twilight Fortress heard Karen's voice and raided towards them.

"No, they have to pay for it!" Karen raised his head and attacked the enemy.

Moostaz was shocked and witnessed his companion pounced on the unlucky guys. Karen always looked calm on weekdays, but he was not inferior to his mother when he was angry. His huge claws pierced the long neck of a Twilight Dragon. His tail blew the ribs on the chest of the other dragon. There was also flame. The flames that Karen sprayed burned the last dragon to coke.

"Enough, Karen. We must leave." Moostaz flew to his companions to cover him. He would not slacke in the current situation because of the power Karen showed, because more Twilight Dragons noticed the situation here, including several adult Twilight Dragons, who were undoubtedly more dangerous. "Don't forget your duties."

In his collapsed heart, Karen only held a thought tightly: avenge the dead Red Dragons. Otherwise, he would be heartbroken and resentful, as was the case with the entire Red Dragon Legion. But Moostaz's words restored him to calm down for a moment, but also made him feel as heavy as lead. He knew that he should listen to his companions because that was right.

"The Red Dragon Legion will not forget."

"Of course we won't, let's go."

The two red dragons changed direction in the air and quickly evacuated.

The Twilight Dragon behind him pursued them relentlessly, and various magic attacks attempted to capture the two red dragons. Karen turned quickly and avoided the Twilight Dragon's fatal spurt. With the help of the corner of his eyes, he saw that Moostaz seemed to be injured, with three obvious scratches on his abdomen. The two Twilight Dragons were attacking him, and please prepare to launch a new round of attacks on him.

Karen seized the opportunity and rushed over. The two dragons were all focused on Moostaz. When they noticed Karen, it was too late. Karen bit the neck of a Twilight Dragon tightly, and heard the guy screaming in his ears. The Twilight Dragon's dark purple wings flapped the air desperately, while the black claws kept scratching Karen, struggling to death.

Despite the protection of scales, Karen could still feel the pain. He continued to add strength to his teeth, and his own pain soon stopped. Then he loosened his jaw and the weak Twilight Dragon corpse rolled and fell down. But Karen had no time to take a look at the corpse.

"Thank you, Karen." Moostaz also took the opportunity to kill another red dragon.

"I should say sorry, Moostaz. I've implicated you."

"Everyone has reckless times. I won't blame you, Karen. Be careful!!!"

A chill rushes over Karen's body, after he hears Moostaz's warning.

Two adult Twilight Dragons rushed from both sides. Karen was just thinking about leaving quickly, and he almost didn't notice the coming enemy in time. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough. After hearing Moostaz's voice, he immediately stretched out his wings to prepare for the enemy. However, this time the enemy became extremely cunning. One Twilight Dragon took the lead in attacking, but when Karen collided with him, he found that the opponent had grabbed his front paws, making it difficult for him to move. The other dragon seized the opportunity and aimed at Karen's most fragile neck and rushed over.

Just when Karen thought he was dead, two sounds of air were quickly shattered the battlefield. The next second, Karen saw blood spraying out of Twilight Dragon's eyes, and his brain burst. Twilight Dragon's companions seemed to have suffered the same attack, and their whole body lost their strength and fell into the jungle below.

"What's going on?"

"It seems that someone is helping us." Moostaz saw that the attack was fired from below, but the dense branches and leaves blocked his sight, and he did not find any trace of the other party. "It seems to be... a bullet."

At this time, the Twilight Dragons who were chasing the two red dragons saw the most powerful adult dragon falling down and gave up chasing and fleeing everywhere. Karen knew they were saved.

"Praise Titans, let's get out of here soon."

...

The breath of the Twilight Dragon became weak, and now only pain was complete on his body. But the pain would disappear soon and he was about to die.

Another companion had already left him, hung on the trunk of a tree, and lost his anger.

The big guy who was still breathing a breath was helplessly lying on the ground, quietly waiting for death to come. A stream of purple blood flowed out of his mouth, and all the plants stained withered. The meaning of the existence of the Twilight Dragon is to erase all life. He was still carrying out his mission at the last moment.

"Ah, here!"

A harsh and smug laughter wrapped around the Twilight Dragon's body. One of his eyes was shot through, and the other saw a pair of short legs approaching him.

"You...can't survive."

Twilight Dragon's eyes opened, and he saw the last scene he saw in this world incredibly. The dagger pierced into his neck completely cut off his breath.

"Okay, it's all solved."

Another small figure came out of the jungle. "It's really unfair. It's something I've beaten down, so I should finish it off, sand and gravel."
