[401-600] LORD OF THE WORLD: I BECOME THE LORD OF THE DESERT FROM THE START

Chapter 556: Battle of the Guards

The blood-colored boulder quickly collapsed under the actions of the Twilight City troop.

Then, the yellow sand on the ground squirmed. It stacked the boulders together like a cart.

The sandstorm controller behind turned into a blazing sandstorm.

Richard continuously condensed sharp blades and trimmed the vast rock into a suitable shape.

He must have chopped the surrounding boulders like bamboo shoots under the concerted efforts of thousands of troops.

A spacious entity appeared.

A rough and supremely sturdy troop building stood in the center of the space.

The strange building could be called a battle platform. It was about 300 meters in diameter and 20 meters above the ground.

One must have built the defensive walls around this large platform on top of it. They only built walls beneficial for an attack.

The generous benefit of this building was that it could give the troops a geographical stance.

They could attack from above.

Moreover, air troops weren’t allowed. Soldiers could only attack from the ground.

That was the simplified version of a fortress.

Richard looked at the platform in good spirits.

In most cases, to defend a giant city was always more advantageous than to siege.

The rules of this obelisk were a little special, and he wasn’t sure what could happen.

It was better to stay still than to move.

The dragon wings were tall and had dragon scales. They held a heavy battle axe and occupied the primary position facing the obelisk.

The stone statues of the dead, the king of the imperial troops, and the guardian mummies filled the gaps in the other defense lines.

Interestingly, Richard did not arrange for the skeleton blood dragon and the other big guys to walk forward. He instructed them to sit at the back.

A vast body could be good or bad for a city to defend. A body that was not flexible could easily allow the enemy to take advantage of it.

On the contrary, dragon breath could unleash the mightiest power if they took on the role of fire support.

They could allow the skeleton blood dragons to clear the area if the enemy was strong enough.

Richard had just finished his arrangements when a blood-colored light suddenly burst out from the top of the blood-colored obelisk before him. Countless bolts of lightning shrouded a terrifying place.

Then, the lightning that lingered on it suddenly disappeared without a trace.

A long and thin black line suddenly condensed.

Then, the black line slowly expanded to both sides.

A pitch-black hole appeared in the sky.

Everyone heard the sound in the next second.

‘Boom!’

One must have poured gasoline into a piece of firewood and ignited it. Flames hovered afterward.

The hole exploded.

Scarlet flames burned brightly. A long trail of it engulfed the ground.

Tail-flame stirred the blood-colored clouds in the sky.
