Valkyrie Angelia left the Land of the Soaring Dragon.

And with her departure also went the monstrous army of the Soaring Dragon Legion, almost all of which were armed with weapons and equipment produced by the Black Iron Dwarves.

They were led by the Dragonborn Goblin Gaz and would help Angelia cleanse the Mido Region of all Lait influence.

Riding on her lame horse, surrounded by the ferocious ogres and wolf cavalry, Angelia felt that everything seemed so unreal.

There were even a considerable number of well-equipped Black Iron Dwarf fighters among them.

The Black Iron Dwarves kept their promise. After dealing with the Redbeards, they sent people to help address the increasingly powerful Lait people.

In Mido, and even throughout the former Vide Kingdom, horses were very rare.

Even during the most prosperous time of the Vide Kingdom, they could not form a knight group of their own.

Therefore, the wolf cavalry led by that strange goblin would have a natural advantage against the Lait people.

Angelia tried to communicate with the goblin general named Gaz, who was surprisingly talkative and knowledgeable, even about things she had never understood before.

With the help of these monsters, reclaiming Mido from the hands of the new Lait King seemed not too difficult.

Now, almost the entire territory of Mido was occupied by the Lait people, so Angelia’s reinforcements, the Soaring Dragon Legion, soon faced off against the Lait people.

Mido wasn’t adjacent to Nolan Forest, so whether Angelia went to the Land of the Soaring Dragon or returned to Mido with the Soaring Dragon Legion, she had to pass through the Sulfur Mountains.

The Soaring Dragon Legion was confronted with a small city near the Sulfur Mountains and the Sky Mountains of Mido. Named Hart City, it was usually a transit point for trade between Mido and the Red Copper Dwarves.

But at this moment, it had become a military stronghold for the Lait people.

The previous continuous attacks on Red Copper Castle by the Lait army were dispatched from here.

Under the command of the new Lait King, the Lait people captured the Mido population from nearby villages like cattle and brought them into the city.

Then they forcibly fed them pills to turn them into loyal dogs, willing to die on the battlefield.

Since there were many monsters in the Soaring Dragon Legion, bypassing Hart City’s outposts was clearly unrealistic.

Moreover, the primary mission of the Soaring Dragon Legion was to wipe out these Lait people and cleanse them from the land of Mido.

So, under Gaz’s command, the Lizardman Scouts in charge of reconnaissance rode giant eagles into the sky.

Once they had a rough idea of the situation inside the city, the scouts made a round trip and brought some new types of explosives developed by the goblins and Black Iron Dwarves.

The volatile dangerous items were still produced by the goblins, but the Black Iron Dwarves changed the containers for the explosives.

The dwarves used hard iron balls and magic gems, which would explode slightly when struck, to replace the original crystal containers, making the dangerous explosive items more stable and easier to use.

The people guarding Hart City were simple: either arrogant Lait people or exhausted, collapsed Mido people conscripted into their army.

At first, there were many Frenzy Pills-consuming Berserker Army soldiers in Mido, but now they had been almost entirely replaced by Mido people.Frenzy Pills containing a certain level of dragon vein pollution were not good things, though swallowing them could greatly enhance one’s combat abilities.

But without consuming the pills, those previously fearless and strong soldiers would immediately become weak and unable to handle most tasks.

So in Hart City, the sentries were mostly composed of Lait people who had never consumed the pills, apart from the higher-ranking military officers and their subordinates.

As a group of Lait sentries were chatting and telling tall tales, one of them suddenly looked up in confusion and said, “Strange, where did these big birds come from…

Before he could see what was happening, iron balls embedded with magical gems fell from the sky, landing on the city walls of Hart City.

Subsequent explosions blew several large holes in the city walls, large enough for the army to pass through. By the time the higher-ranking Lait officers inside the city reacted, dozens of Chimeras were already flying over Hart City.

Under the onslaught of raging thunderbolts and scorching flames, many low-ranking officers didn’t even have time to distribute the Frenzy Pills in their hands.

Without the Frenzy Pills, those coerced Mido soldiers were essentially useless.

Faced with this sudden attack, instead of trying to devise a counter-strategy, the high-ranking Lait officers in the city were preoccupied with thoughts of escape.

Selfishness was always an unchanging quality among the Lait people.

But clearly, Gaz wouldn’t give them a chance.

Ogres and Black Iron Dwarves charged directly through the gaps in the city walls, slaughtering everyone inside. If it weren’t for Angelina’s intervention, they would have killed every single survivor in the city.

As for Gaz himself, he led the Wolf Cavalry directly to the rear of Hart City, capturing all of the high-ranking Lait officers who were attempting to escape.

These cowards who were both afraid to die and extremely greedy didn’t forget to bring along some beautiful undressed Mido women even at the last moment of their attempted escape.

The Lait people who had easily defeated the Mido Grand Duke and conquered Mido were no match for the Soaring Dragon Legion.

As long as their weakness concerning the Frenzy Pills was well-targeted, the seemingly invincible and terrifying Lait people were actually very easy to deal with.

Although the Mido people in the city had to submit to Lait’s rule due to their addiction-like dependence on the Frenzy Pills, it did not mean that their hearts had also surrendered.

Even with her silver hair, many people still recognized Angelina’s identity.

Amidst the weak cheers, the Lait officers who had been exploiting them were sent to the guillotine by Angelina herself.

She even personally raised her battleaxe and beheaded the highest-ranking

Lait officer in Hart City, making her position clear.

Standing on the platform, the Dragonborn Valkyrie Angelina spoke passionately to the dispirited Mido citizens, who had just escaped the control of the Lait people.

However, unlike her fiery enthusiasm, most Mido people simply yearned for the surrendered Frenzy Pills.

These otherworldly addicts, both men and women, didn’t care about the surrounding army of monstrous creatures.

What they cared about was when they could get another coveted pill to satisfy their extraordinary cravings.

Dragonborn Goblin Gaz walked over to Angelina and sighed, “They’re beyond saving. At least, let’s put the last of their lives to good use!”

Angelina reluctantly nodded, while her hatred for the new Lait king grew even stronger..
