The attack of the Harpy caught Chen Jian and his party a little off guard, and this situation was not expected in Chen Jian's plan.

Seeing that the opponent blatantly launched an attack, Chen Jian had no choice but to respond helplessly.

Although they were outnumbered by their opponents, the griffons were still undaunted to meet their opponents under the command of the griffin knights.

Since the Harpy's focus was on griffins, the battle was quite brutal from the start.

In this world, there is a clear difference between the air battles that take place between the flight units of various races and the air battles on the earth, and unlike the fighters on the earth who use various modern weapons to chase and attack each other, the air battles in this world rely more on flexible skills to conduct face-to-face hand-to-hand combat in the sky.

This kind of hand-to-hand combat is not much different from ground fighting, except that it takes place in the sky.

The same is true of this air battle that preceded the griffin and the harpy.

The griffons attack their enemies with their claws and beaks, as well as ramming their opponents with their stronger bodies, while the harpies use their short swords and equally sharp talons and agility to grapple with their enemies.

Coincidentally, both sides focused their attacks on the opponent's wings - such a battle at high altitude, if you lose the ability to fly, you will be sentenced to death.

More than 200 griffons and about 400 harpies fought fiercely in the air, and the griffons tore the wings of their opponents with their claws, gouged through their heads with their beaks, and used their bodies to knock a bloody path through the crowd; The harpies pierced their opponents' bodies with their short swords, severing their wings and leaving terrible wounds on their opponents with their talons.

The feathers that fell from their bodies were mixed with blood and fluttered in the sky like winter snow.

From time to time, griffons or harpies screamed and fell like meteorites from above on the wasteland of Baildus, their bodies turning into a mess of flesh on the ground and smashing them into deep pits.

This kind of scene made Chen Jian, who had listened to the advice of the griffin knight and retreated the ground troops for a distance, smacked his tongue, and he had never seen this kind of formal air battle scene, so he realized that if he was inexperienced, he was still in place, and he was afraid that the ground troops would suffer heavy losses because of these guys who fell from the sky.

The number of harpys attacking the ground forces is not large, Zoya thinks very clearly, the threat of the enemy's fire mages is too great, if he is allowed to seize the opportunity, he is afraid that the harpies will suffer heavy losses under the blow of range magic, so as soon as she comes up, she will let most of the harpys quickly melee with the griffins, she is quite experienced She knows that this kind of you have me, I have you is the best way to deal with the enemy mage, No mage would dare to risk injuring his own people in such a chaotic battle to unleash range magic.

In addition to the enemy's ground forces, except for those monks who can attack from a distance, the remaining spearmen and cavalry are not worth mentioning at all in Zoya's eyes, so Zoya just asked a hundred harpies to attack these enemies, and repeatedly told them to be careful of the enemy's fire magicians, and must not get together, as long as they use the tactics that their clan is best at striking and retreating, disturbing and containing the enemy.

The hundreds, harpies, faithfully carried out Zoya's orders, hovering over the heads of their enemies, carefully dodging the monks' single magic attacks while looking for an opportunity to inflict damage on their opponents.

But the enemy didn't give them a chance.

Under Jian Chen's command, the Hammondale soldiers formed a small circle, and the harpys frowned greatly with the extra-long spears in the array, these spears were too long, and the dive attack tactics they were good at couldn't be used in the face of the forest of these strange spears.

The cavalry and clerics in the middle of these spearmen were also well protected by these strange spears, and under the protection of the spearmen's three hundred and sixty degrees, the harpies simply could not get the angle they needed to dive - if they did so, they would be seriously threatened by the enemy's spears as they descended and ascended into the air.

The two sides confronted each other like this, and the griffins and harpies were in full swing in the sky not far away, while the battle on this side was as flat as water.

The harpies hovered over the enemy's heads for a moment, but instead of achieving results, several of the overly careless ones were knocked down by the monk's magical attack.

The situation made some of the harpies who had no more to endure and took the risk of attacking.

This proved to be a rather unwise and impulsive act, and as they swooped down, the Hammondale soldiers below them slammed their spears upward, and many of the Harpies, who were not at the right height, were injured by this simple but effective attack.

The speed at which they rushed forward combined with the sharp spear tips cut long gaps in their abdomen, and the serious injuries caused the daring creatures to scream in pain, and by inertia they tumbled over the forest of spears and continued their progress, eventually skewering their bodies around one of the spears and slowly sliding down the shaft.

This horrific situation caused the rest of the Harpy to give up on continuing to dive and instead desperately pull up their own heights.

But the Hammondale soldiers on the ground were not having a good time at this time, and the huge force from the spear made many soldiers unable to hold the spears in their hands anymore, and some even fell to the ground because of this, and the spears that came out of their hands also made the circle a little chaotic.

Other whimsical harpies flew above the center of the circle and folded their wings in a vertical descent in an attempt to attack the monks and cavalry in the array.

It seemed much safer than swooping over the Spear Forest, but their gathering together gave the sorceress who had been holding back a great opportunity to annihilate the enemy.

The sorceress used a single hell flame spell to turn all of these harpies, who had forgotten their existence, into falling meteors.

The sudden appearance of magical flames in the sky turned these rapidly descending harpy banshees into charred objects that were black or burning with residual flames burning on their bodies, and they looked similar to meteor fire rain magic from a distance.

But what the sorceress and everyone below did not expect was that this copycat version of the meteor rain also brought some damage to their side, and several cavalrymen and monks who could not dodge were smashed to the ground by these enemies who had lost their lives, and they were seriously injured and vomited blood, or killed on the spot.

The remaining harpies did not dare to act rashly, the other party's spear array made them feel like they had nowhere to bite, and some Harmondale soldiers even took off their heavy crossbows and mixed them with the spear array to shoot in the air, so they could only helplessly hail in the air, and finally turned their attention to the numerous carriages and unmanned horses, they overturned these unattended carriages or drove the horses around, hoping to hinder the enemy's journey.

And the losses of the harpy banshees on the other side at this time were also more than Zoya imagined.

She had thought that with a numerical advantage of two to one, she should be able to easily gain the upper hand, but to her surprise, the battle between the griffin and the harpy was in a stalemate.

The reason for this is that these griffons are blessed with magical shields! The griffons, who had an extra layer of protection, ignored the enemy's attacks under the command of the griffin knights, and attacked with all their might as soon as they came up, and the harpies who were caught off guard were killed and injured by the enemy with the same way of fighting without mental preparation, but this kind of same fate The griffins paid for their lives, and the griffons only paid for the shattering of the magic shield on their bodies.

Some of the more daring griffons were surrounded by a ring of fire of astonishing destructiveness, and they rushed there, and there was a strange cry of harpies.

Zoya recognized this magic as the "Burning of Fury" in fire magic, which was powerful enough to form a ring of fire on the blessed person to protect themselves and harm their enemies.

Many harpies were just lightly touched by this ring of fire, and the feathers on their bodies began to burn violently, and then they would staggered like kites with broken strings and fell to the ground with flames in a miserable scream.

Therefore, after a period of fighting, the Harpys lost much more than the griffins, which made Zoya want to retreat.

"Stand back! Back off! Out of the fight! Zoya screamed and gave the order to retreat as she once again plunged her sharp dagger into the back of a griffin that was fighting with her.

With the retreat of the harpys, the air battle between the two sides finally came to an end.

After the stoppage, Zoya, who was hanging far behind the opponent again, checked the battle damage of both sides a little, and almost fainted on the spot in anger.

In this air battle, the harpys paid more than a hundred losses, and they only lost dozens of griffons and several cavalry and monks of their opponents, such a number undoubtedly shows that in this battle initiated by the harpys, the harpys were defeated.

Unbeknownst to Zoya, after Jian Chen found out that the harpies were catching up, he had already instructed the monks and magicians to bless the griffins with magic in advance when the enemy was approaching.

This style made the Harpys suffer a lot, and Zoya realized that Lord Shakter's warning was not alarmist, and the enemy commander was quite cunning as Lord Shakt said, he was able to use such an unexpected method to make up for the lack of troops, and he could also use the clever formation to make it impossible for the Harpys to deal a fatal blow to his ground troops.

Thinking that she would have to face the surging fire from Lord Shaket and the Dragon Queen because of this senseless loss that could have been avoided, Zoya hated this cunning opponent even more.

"Come with me, we must not let them escape to Hammondal!" Zoya gritted her teeth and ordered, and then led the Harpy to act again.
