"Bang~"
"Crash!"
The castle, which seemed impregnable to these soldiers, crumbled instantly under the destructive force of the explosion's shockwave.
The stone-built castle was directly blown open, leaving a huge gap.
The surrounding walls that hadn't been blasted apart were also tottering, and a slight push would cause countless stones to fall.
The castle gate stood alone in its original position.
If the gate had consciousness, it would definitely be asking, "Who am I? Where am I? What just happened?"
"It seems a bit out of place for me to continue standing here."
"Creak, creak, creak~"
Finally, the castle gate slowly fell, directly creating a huge deep pit in the ground.
The soldiers still alive inside the castle felt their limbs go weak and their heads spin.
They vaguely opened their eyes, feeling lucky to still see the sun.
Although they were wearing full iron armor, this also became their cage.
The weight of the armor made it impossible for them to move, leaving them at the mercy of others.
Seeing this opportunity, Jonaf immediately drew the precious sword from his waist.
He lightly squeezed his horse's belly, raised the cross-shaped precious sword in his hand, and shouted loudly in front of all the soldiers:
"Fight for the honor of the Divine Envoy!"
"Charge and kill the enemy! The Divine Envoy is with us!"
The cavalry behind responded, all brandishing their cross-shaped longswords, which gleamed in the sunlight.
Every soldier shouted excitedly, "The Divine Envoy is with us!"
"The Divine Envoy is with us!"
"The Divine Envoy is with us!"
The shouts of tens of thousands of soldiers spread like waves, their fierce roars reaching the sky.
This terrified the soldiers inside the castle, who trembled and tried to struggle but couldn't stand up.
Jonaf raised the cross-shaped longsword in his hand and shouted, "Warriors, charge!"
"Charge!"
"Neigh!"
The shouts of the soldiers and the neighing of the warhorses mixed together.
Every soldier's eyes were filled with fanaticism, eager for the upcoming battle to win honor for themselves.
Hooves trampled over the ruined castle gate, charging towards the soldiers inside the castle.
Some physically stronger soldiers struggled to stand up, but before they could run two steps, they were caught by the cavalry from behind.
Short axes and longswords crashed onto their armor.
The helmets of these soldiers were shaped like mountain bells, and no matter what weapon struck them, the soldiers inside would feel a buzzing sensation.
Moreover, the charging soldiers were using all their strength, showing no intention of letting them go.
In an instant, more and more soldiers poured into the castle.
None of the soldiers guarding the castle were left alive.
Hiccup patrolled the sky on Night Fury, nodding in satisfaction at the battle below.
"Roar~"
Night Fury let out another Dragon roar, and the soldiers below charged again.
Because this was only the outer part of the castle, there were still endless soldiers pouring out from within.
At the same time, many soldiers were fleeing, carrying various boxes.
Their destination was the nearby coast, where huge ships swayed with the waves.
Above the ships, groups of Dragon Knights were guarding.
The Dragons beneath these Dragon Knights all had one characteristic: slender vertical pupils.
Clearly, Draeger feared that these Dragon Knights would flee midway, so he directly had Dragon King Alpha control the minds of these Dragons.
He didn't believe that Night Fury's stamina could be endless; he planned to exhaust Night Fury with the Dragon group.
As for the remaining soldiers, there was no need to pay attention to them.
Whether they could even reach the coast was a question.
At present, they could only escape as quickly as possible.
Once the Dragon Knight Legion behind Night Fury arrived to provide support, and Alpha was held back by another Dragon King, he would have no way out.
In reality, Draeger had no idea that Hiccup only brought Night Fury, a single Dragon.
Even the Dragon Knights of the merchant caravan, Hiccup didn't intend to let them participate in the battle, because one person and one Dragon were enough.
Jonaf and his soldiers quickly occupied the entire castle.
"Warriors, don't let any enemy escape!"
"Kill these pirates and hang them on the cliff!"
"Leave half the soldiers, and the rest of you charge towards the coast!"
After quickly giving these commands, Jonaf led the assigned soldiers towards the coast.
Draeger's soldiers had already been waiting for a long time.
It wasn't that they didn't want to run, but because there were too many people who needed to retreat, and they simply didn't have enough time.
Secondly, anyone who dared to run was frozen into an ice sculpture.
Thousands of living examples were laid out on the coast.
Under the sunlight, the soldiers frozen into ice sculptures were still glowing.
These soldiers could only fight with their backs against the wall.
Jonaf didn't understand these things at all.
In his understanding, it was just charge, charge, and charge again, eliminating all enemies with his weapons.
True warriors never fear any enemy.
Hiccup lightly patted Night Fury, and Night Fury cooperatively let out a Dragon roar.
However, to Jonaf, this was a signal to charge, completely misunderstanding that Hiccup was telling him to retreat.
Hiccup thought with some exasperation, "If only Night Fury could speak human language."
Now Jonaf's army had already formed a charging stance.
Even if he wanted them to stop, they couldn't.
So he could only let them charge forward.
Everyone was shouting, "The Divine Envoy is with me!"
Hearing this, Hiccup rubbed his forehead, feeling extremely helpless.
"I can be with you, but I can't die with you!"
"Isn't this just charging forward as a group to give away heads?"
Draeger's soldiers lined up on the coast, holding up their shields.
The soldiers hidden behind the shields drew their bows to full, constantly calculating Jonaf's distance.
"Fire!"
When the distance was sufficient, a sky full of arrows rained down.
Arrows lacking power were directly deflected after striking their armor.
However, those powerful arrows directly pierced through the soldiers' armor.
After all, although Draeger's soldiers were pirates before, they were in the business of slaying Dragons.
If the arrows were weak, they wouldn't be able to penetrate the scales of a Dragon.
So Jonaf's soldiers fell in rows.
For some reason, it was as if there truly was a divine favor.
The sky full of arrows didn't harm Jonaf at all; it even gave the impression that the arrows were avoiding him.
This undoubtedly gave the soldiers even greater courage.
With bloodshot eyes, they roared loudly and charged towards the enemy.
Seeing the brave and fearless cavalry getting closer, the soldiers holding shields on the coast also began to panic.
