Chapter 404

When the heat wave rolled up by the fire came head-on, almost all the griffins let out sharp screams. Even as a strong man in the sky, a griffin is still instinctively afraid of flames.

No, it should be said that it is the instinct of most creatures.

"Fly west!" Kurdran, the leading Wildhammer dwarf king, quickly gestured.

Only about half of the Gryphon Riders reacted and flew sideways after Kurdran. Quite a few griffins had to hover or fly back to find their way out.

When Duke flew to the west where the air was slightly cleaner, he reined in the griffin's reins and let the griffin circle gently, giving him and Aurelia enough time and space to gaze at the terrible disaster in front of them.

Unlike when Duke burned Elwynn Forest back then, Elwynn Forest was already a completely enemy-occupied area. And humans don't have as many ideas as elves.

It was different now. When Duke squinted his eyes on the griffin to reduce the glare entering his eyeballs, Alleria unconsciously tightened his grip on Duke.

That is a kind of arm strength that far surpasses that of Duke.

The arm is so strong, it feels like it will pull out Duke's internal organs in his abdomen.

"Stop this fire!" She yelled like crazy, shaking Duke's body vigorously: "Duke, aren't you omnipotent? Go and stop this damn fire! !!"

"There's nothing I can do," Duke wanted to say.

He is not a druid, nor a saint, nor a savior. He's just a mage who is better at destroying than creating. But listening to the mournful tremor in Aurelia's voice, Duke felt that his heart was also shattered.

The dragons were hovering in the distance ahead like playful bats, flames spread everywhere they passed.

Perhaps these red dragons were reluctant to obey the control of the orcs at the beginning, but as time passed, it was obvious that some red dragons also accepted this identity, and under the guidance of the orcs, they released the tyranny in their hearts .

Across the horizon, half the border of Quel'Thalas was burning.

Flames and thick smoke are like a cage of destruction, enveloping the home of the high elves. Like the flames of death, it spreads from the foot of this mountain to the foot of another mountain. Turn the touched place into the most ferocious red flame, and behind it sprinkle a piece of darkness that remains after it has been completely burned.

Duke can be sure that the fire burning here can be seen even in Silvermoon City.

This is revenge!

Orgrim's revenge on him!

Just like when he burned Elwynn Forest back then, leaving hell-like terror to the Horde. Now Orgrim is using the same method to pay back what Duke did to the Horde, making Duke's perfect strategy and tactics this time full of pain and regret.

At this moment, at this moment, at this moment, it was Alleria who was asking him.

"Duke, I'm sorry, I don't want to force you, but I'm just a ranger, and I can't deal with this fire." Alleria leaned her whole head on Duke's shoulder, and Duke saw it out of the corner of his eye. Tears streamed down her cheeks: "But I must stop it! For the forests of Quel'Thalas are my home..."

Duke couldn't say no.

"I'll try my best..." After finishing speaking, Duke blew a small horn, sounding the secret signal agreed with Kurdran.

Holding his hammer high, Kurdran shouted, "Little ones! Put down our guests. We are responsible for cleaning up those lizards! Tell them, who is the master of the sky!"

"Oh——" the griffin riders first let the griffins slow down and fly low, and then let the brisk rangers jump to the canopy of each tree as if they were making dumplings, and finally formed a formation and began to charge forward without hesitation.

Even if they know that this must be accompanied by sacrifice...

Duke jumped straight down because he saw a river hundreds of meters away from the front of the fire. The river was about five meters wide, and the water was fairly swift.

The system elf came out: "Host, I have to warn you, your actions are meaningless. Your chance of completely extinguishing this fire is 0.00001%"

"Some things don't have to be done with certainty of success." Duke replied in a deep voice, "Sometimes, people do things that have no real meaning, just to make themselves feel better."

"Sorry, host, I can't understand what you said."

Duke didn't continue to answer, he cast the spell directly.

After a brief acceleration, the triple magic circuit in the body was running to the extreme.

Sky mages can absorb elemental power from the entire sky to strengthen their own magic. Morning Star can create magic on a small scale by itself.

Because of the high temperature, the river water has begun to heat and boil. The temperature of the fire site is too high, simply pouring water on it will only evaporate in an instant.

What Duke did was not simply to extinguish the fire with water, but to first pump out the fire element from the entire area.

Drain, suck, and suck.

Compress, compress, compress!

Then, a huge fireball that had never been seen before burst out from the palm of Duke's skyward blast like a mushroom cloud. The big fireball was launched into the sky, and after rising more than two hundred meters, it began to dissipate rapidly because there was no more burning matter.

With the fire element removed, the temperature of the air in a radius of hundreds of meters in front of Duke dropped sharply, and some areas even had an out-of-season phenomenon in which frost covered the ground.

"Duke! Good job!" On the griffin, Alleria manipulated Duke's griffin skillfully.

But soon, she, her sisters, and even the ranger she brought with her, all became silent.

Duke is very powerful. He successfully contained a large forest from fire by running at high speed and mobilizing the power of fire elementals in large areas, and replacing them with water elementals.

However, his strength alone is still too small.

So what if two or three kilometers of slender areas are protected from fire? In just ten minutes, the fire scene has stretched for hundreds of kilometers. If it wasn't for the fact that the Griffin Knights of the Wildhammer Dwarves had already started a fierce battle with the Red Dragon Legion in the distance, the area of ​​the fire would have been larger and more terrifying.

In the distance, a mammoth battle broke out in mid-air, and the winner was quickly determined.

In terms of air combat, the Griffon, which was originally only an upper-middle level, was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of the quality of a single body against the Red Dragon, which is the overlord of the sky.

Wildhammer dwarves make up for what they lack in quality with sheer quantity.

Originally, according to Duke, if the orc knight riding on the red dragon was settled, the red dragon would run away by itself. Obviously, the tribe used some kind of threat or means to force the red dragon. Now even if the knight behind the red dragon dies, he will still choose to continue fighting until he receives the order to retreat.

Kurdran had to order to kill these red dragons as well.

After being continuously hit by the storm hammer, the red dragons finally couldn't hold on anymore, howled loudly, and fell from the midair with bruises all over their bodies.

The battle is over.
