Damn, I Have to Marry the Strongest Antagonist at the Start?

Chapter 140: Chapter140-The Full Counterattack



Seeing this, Grace and her four deputies were furious, glaring in anger, wanting to swallow Stanley whole!

The soldiers of the Azure Kingdom had been on the verge of wavering, but Stanley's words had reignited their spirits!

"Kill! Leave no one alive in Ironkeep!"

An enraged Grace completely lost her patience. Her sharp eyes filled with murderous intent as she waved her right hand to give the order.

In an instant, the Crimson Dragons, which had paused their attacks, roared fiercely and began to devour the Azure Kingdom soldiers below. Their terrifying magical assaults, like unstoppable cannonballs, unleashed destruction upon Ironkeep.

Deafening explosions echoed all around, turning Ironkeep into a hell on earth, and under the assault of 200,000 elite troops, the fortress was torn apart.

Despite the renewed fighting spirit of the soldiers, they were ultimately outmatched. In a short time, the remaining 70,000 elite soldiers suffered another loss of 10,000.

Throughout Ironkeep, parts of the fortress began to collapse, and the bodies of Azure Kingdom soldiers were blasted into the air by magical attacks, creating a scene of bloodshed and brutality.

The dark, dense masses of Kyrik's elite forces swarmed in like an unending tide, filling the vision of the Azure Kingdom soldiers.

At that moment, a profound sense of despair and helplessness overcame them, causing their eyelids to droop and the magical energy in their bodies to dissipate like deflating balloons. Now, only despair remained in their hearts.

Both mentally and physically, they had reached their limits.

"To die for my country, I have done my best..."

Some soldiers, in their fading consciousness, found themselves thinking this final thought. The Azure Kingdom soldiers, whose morale had briefly risen, were quickly crushed once more by the bloodthirsty Kyrik army, leaving them numb in both body and spirit.

They stood frozen, as if waiting for the moment to meet their end.

Meanwhile, in the sky, Stanley was nearing his limit in the fierce battle against Grace and her four deputies.

His armor was soaked in blood, covered with various wounds, though most had quickly scabbed over, making him look more terrifying. Nearly every part of his body bore injuries.

"Stanley, today is your end!"

Seeing Stanley's defenses weakening, Grace sneered,

"Don't worry, your head will be kept as a trophy. I'll make a goblet from it for drinking-it will be a supreme delight."

As she spoke, she and the four deputies launched an attack together, forming a terrifying slash that ripped through the sky toward Stanley's throat, aiming to decapitate him.

Stanley was already nearing his limit, and maintaining flight with his remaining mana was becoming difficult. He could barely attempt to retreat, trying to put distance between himself and the incoming slash.

However, the pale, massive slash moved with incredible speed, and as soon as he stepped back, it was upon him.

At that moment, both the Kyrik soldiers below and the Azure Kingdom's troops stood frozen, gazing up at the scene.

The Kyrik soldiers wore expressions of satisfaction and excitement-Stanley, the burden on their pride, would finally be gone today!

In contrast, the soldiers of the Azure Kingdom found themselves unable to grip their weapons and magical items.

Stanley was not only the strongest in their army but also their symbol of hope!

If General Stanley were to fall here, their last flicker of hope would be utterly extinguished...

To everyone's shock, Stanley's head did not fly high into the air, nor was he decapitated. Instead, a blinding lightning bolt tore through the sky, instantly shattering the slash. Immediately afterward, a thunderous voice echoed across the battlefield!

"Is an Azure Kingdom general someone you vermin think you can kill?"

"Begone!"

The voice boomed like thunder, exploding in everyone's ears.

Many of the weaker soldiers covered their ears, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

Grace and her four deputies tensed, warily eyeing the direction from which the attack and voice had come.

Then they saw a fiery red light streak across the sky like a meteor, arriving above Ironkeep with unimaginable speed.

As the fiery glow dissipated, Owen's figure was revealed, standing proudly. He exuded an imposing aura of authority, with arcs of lightning dancing around him, like a god descending to the world!

The moment Owen appeared, the Kyrik soldiers, whose morale had surged, and the Azure Kingdom soldiers, who had fallen into utter despair, both stared at him in astonishment.

Owen's name and appearance had already become well-known across the major kingdoms and factions due to his rising fame.

Thus, the soldiers recognized him immediately.

Owen had personally come to support them!

Whether it was Owen's remarkable talent or his engagement to Leslie, his presence here

showed the importance he placed on Ironkeep.

Kyrik's soldiers became wary, while the Azure Kingdom's soldiers, who had been in despair, found a glimmer of hope.

Reinforcements!

Reinforcements had truly arrived!

Amid the astonishment of the crowd, Grace quickly scanned behind Owen but sensed no approaching army. Considering that their spies within various armies hadn't reported anything, a strange smile appeared on her face.

"Well, well, well, isn't this Owen, ranked number one on the Domination Leaderboard? It's quite something to see you in person, daring to come here alone for support!"

As she finished speaking, the previously noisy soldiers fell silent again.

They looked behind Owen and saw nothing but the empty air, except for the serpentine spellbeast hovering beneath his feet. There were no other figures in sight.

He seemed to have truly come alone!

"To deal with you all, I'm more than enough!"

Owen glanced at Grace and the others, shook his head disdainfully, and then looked at

Seraphina beneath him.

At this moment, Seraphina had shrunk significantly due to the journey, lacking the overwhelming presence she had when fully extended.

However, Seraphina's strength was beyond the imagination of anyone from Kyrik. Most importantly, Seraphina was the snake prophesied to bring about Kyrik's downfall!

Grace and the four deputies were about to mock Owen for his perceived overconfidence, but they suddenly saw the serpentine spellbeast beneath him expand dramatically in the wind, growing from its previous size of about two meters to nearly a hundred meters.

Its massive body, as thick as a house, coupled with a tail that seemed to stretch across the sky, exuded an unimaginable oppressive force that spread out instantly!

As the continent's foremost spellbeast, Seraphina naturally exerted a bloodline suppression

over all living beings.

Additionally, due to the prophecy that Kyrik would ultimately fall at Seraphina's hand, this oppressive aura filled Kyrik's soldiers with soul-shaking terror and dread!

"This... this is..."

Grace and the four deputies widened their eyes in disbelief at the scene before them.

The enormous serpent-like spellbeast looked increasingly familiar.

Why was the aura it emanated so frightening, causing even their bones to tremble?

"Snakefolk! The snakefolk in their juvenile stage look just like this!"

Suddenly, Grace was struck by a realization.

Snakefolk are quite unique; in their juvenile stage, they resemble giant serpents. Only as they

mature do they gradually take on a humanoid form, becoming a half-human, half-demon

existence.

And the snakefolk were the source of their familiarity and fear!

After all, the prophecy of the kingdom's destruction by snakefolk had long spread throughout

Kyrik, and the Emperor had ordered their eradication!

Even spellbeasts related to snakefolk had been slaughtered without mercy.

Logically, there shouldn't be any snakefolk left in existence!

Why was there one here?

And why had it become Owen's mount, exuding such a terrifying aura?

Even Grace, now at diamond-tier level 5, felt a shiver of fear in the presence of the massive

Seraphina!

Could this snakefolk before them be the one from the prophecy, destined to destroy Kyrik?!

As they stared intently at Seraphina, the same thought simultaneously occurred to Grace and the four deputies.
