I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

As the first row of dragon scorpions appeared in the dwarves' field of vision under the moonlight.

More and more dragon scorpions emerged from all directions.

"Fire!"

After Anor ran over, Mandel immediately ordered the musketeers behind the heavily armored dwarves to begin their attack.

bang bang bang...

A plume of smoke rose.

The explosive force of the flames propelled the bullet out of the muzzle at incredible speed, tearing through the air and hurtling towards the dragon scorpion across the street.

Puff puff!

Under the barrage of projectiles, many low-level small dragon scorpions were torn apart, their blood splattering everywhere, and they fell to the ground, where they were trampled into a bloody pulp by the dragon scorpions behind them.

However, dragon scorpions that are three meters or longer have carapaces that can deflect ordinary projectiles.

The firearms, when they hit them, would at most cause minor injuries, but would not be fatal.

"General Mandel, those exceeding three meters in size are all mid-level dragon scorpions; ordinary muskets cannot penetrate their bio-armor!"

Anno, who had run back, immediately informed Mandel, who was in command, of the information about the Dragon Scorpion.

To cover the evacuation of nearby residents, more than 500 dwarf soldiers from the area remained here to block the dragon scorpion.

"Strength isn't the issue; the problem is quantity!"

Mandel looked at the dragon scorpions in the street, whose attack had suddenly stopped but whose numbers were steadily increasing, and asked Anno beside him, "Where did they come from?"

"It seems to be inside the seal!"

Anno took out the magic knight suits that Kim and the others had specially made for them from his storage ring and quickly put them on with the help of Liz and Ella.

"If I'm not mistaken, these guys all came from the Holy Mountain. Judging from what I just saw, the inner city is basically in ruins."

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Mandel clenched his fist and flew into the air to look at the inner city.

At first glance, all you see are dilapidated and collapsed buildings.

Moreover, in addition to the street where they are now, buildings are constantly collapsing in other directions.

Clearly, the dragon scorpion is not limited to what is currently in front of us.

They are spreading outwards from the sacred mountain.

Whether it's buildings or enemies in front of us, we'll trample them all under our feet.

"How could this happen?"

As a Sagunt, Mandel felt nothing but burning rage within him.

He drew his battle axe, looked at the ever-increasing number of dragon scorpions across the street, and unleashed a powerful attack.

The sharp weapon sliced ​​through the air, creating an invisible wind blade that fell towards the center of the dragon scorpion opposite.

Boom!

In an instant, more than a dozen dragon scorpions, each five to six meters long, were chopped into pieces.

"Hiss~!"

However, Mandel's attack immediately enraged a seven-meter-long dragon scorpion.

This type of dragon scorpion is of the seventh rank.

With the roar of the seventh-tier dragon scorpion, nearly a thousand dragon scorpions had gathered and began to charge towards the dwarf soldiers.

When charging, the mid-level dragon scorpions completely encased their heads in their carapaces, leaving only a slit for visibility.

The purpose of this was to prevent the vulnerable head from being hit by the dwarves' muskets.

"Fire!"

Once the dragon scorpion was within 100 meters of range, Mandel, who was flying in the air, immediately ordered the musketeers and archers to attack.

The dwarven sorcerers in the army also began using magic to attack the charging dragon scorpions.

Anno wasn't idle either.

All the ranged summons were summoned.

"[Single Target Enhancement]!"

Anno directly used a sixth-tier enhancement skill on the lich and the two-headed giant lizard.

The necromancy used by the lich and the magical attacks spat out by the two-headed giant lizard instantly became a level more powerful.

They were originally level 34, and after being enhanced, they could wipe out a large number of dragon scorpions with a single strike.

With the added firepower of the dwarf army, a large number of the dragon scorpions at the forefront fell instantly.

But the dragon scorpions behind them knew nothing of fear.

Under the command of the high-ranking dragon scorpions, they launched a fearless charge.

After losing a large number of low-level cannon fodder and some mid-level dragon scorpions, the dragon scorpions at the front were only fifty meters away from the heavy soldiers at the forefront of the dwarf army.

At this moment, the dragon scorpion launched its attack.

They hold their tails high, aiming their tail spikes forward.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

The countless stingers detached from the dragon scorpion's tail and shot towards the dwarf camp at an extremely fast speed.

"shield!"

The heavily armored dwarf soldier captain, wearing a full-coverage helmet, immediately ordered his soldiers to use their shields to block the tail spikes.

"Roar~!"

The dwarf soldier roared, raised his shield, and tilted it slightly to block the incoming tail spikes.

Boom boom boom...

To the surprise of the dwarf soldiers and Anno, these tail spikes exploded like cannonballs after hitting the shield.

The tail stings fired by the low-level dragon scorpion had relatively little explosive power, and the dwarf soldier holding the shield only felt a slight impact.

However, the tail sting shot by the sixth-tier dragon scorpion directly killed more than a dozen heavily armored dwarf soldiers.

"Can that tail stinger be shot out?"

Anno looked at a dragon scorpion in the distance that had just shot its tail stinger, and a few seconds later, another tail stinger grew back on its tail. His expression turned somewhat grim.

It can not only attack remotely, but also regenerate.

Doesn't this mean that every dragon scorpion is an all-around monster that can be used at both close and long range?

When Anno first saw the dragon scorpion, he checked information about this monster through the [Observer].

Judging from the data on the panel alone, the Dragon Scorpion's combat power is 20-30% stronger than others of the same level.

High HP, high defense, and many skills.

However, it now appears that the Dragon Scorpion's actual combat power is even higher than what is shown on the stats panel.

According to Anno's experience, dragon scorpions are considered elite demonic species.

Every single one is an elite monster!

Meanwhile, elite monsters were rampant in Sagunto!

By collecting the dragon scorpion souls, Anno knew that more than 300 dragon scorpions had died in just two minutes.

However, the inner city area continues to send dragon scorpions here, and the number of dragon scorpions in front of us is increasing rather than decreasing.

Although the dwarven forces continued their ranged attacks, the dragon scorpions were steadily closing in on the front-line troops.

The number of dwarf soldiers who were hit by the tail spike projectiles, resulting in serious injuries or even death, was also increasing.

After the two sides made contact, the dragon scorpion's combat power was further demonstrated.

Although the dwarf soldiers' battle axes and hammers were very effective against the dragon scorpions.

However, the two large pincers of a mid-level dragon scorpion can easily sever the body of a heavily armored dwarf soldier.

Despite the fact that the dwarf soldiers wore armor made of fine steel.

"President Anno, please help us defeat the Dragon Scorpion!"

Mandel, who was fighting a seventh-tier dragon scorpion in the distance, took a moment to fly into the air and yelled at Anno, "Please!"

boom!

A huge tail spike flew into the air and then exploded into a ball of fire.

Then the man and the scorpion engaged in a fierce battle.

Anno ignored Mandel.

He was already in battle at that moment.

All the summoned creatures were sent out.

Since the only enemy now is the dragon scorpion, after informing the dwarf troops in advance, there won't be any situation where dwarf soldiers accidentally damage Anno's summoned creatures.

However, Anno's summoned creatures were outnumbered by the Dragon Scorpion.

Moreover, there are many mid-level dragon scorpions.

If Anno hadn't been fighting with his summoned creatures, the dwarves' defenses would have been breached long ago.

"No, we can't keep going like this. We have to fight and retreat!"
