Apart from not being able to swim, she knew nothing about the weaknesses of the Rotten Knights.

Moreover, this type of unit was immune to magic. There was no solution at all.

As the army arrived, Su Wan did not retreat. She led the Evil Dragon Wings and the Rotten Knights into the crack.

The other troops remained outside.

The Land of the Old Ones only allowed two heroes to enter. The Red-Eyed Black Dragon and the Dark Valkyrie each occupied a spot.

As a lord, Su Wan was not restricted.

After including them in her army, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon roared excitedly. He wanted to incinerate all the creatures underground into ashes.

She hadn’t chosen the two units just for their strength but also for their power aerial abilities.

Other than the no-fly zone, flying units had a significant advantage in most environments.

With the two troops diving down, even the Red-Eyed Black Dragon with a wingspan of forty meters could easily fly above the crack without touching the walls on both sides.

As the group descended, the red light on the ground became intense.

The walls on both sides of the crack were not rock formations, but pure gravel.

However, it seemed to be suppressed by a tremendous force.

Surprisingly, the crack that was expected to be very deep became visible at a depth of over three hundred meters.

However, at this point, the crack gradually narrowed, and sharp stone pillars appeared.

The path to the underground was completely blocked, and it seemed impossible to proceed.

Su Wan frowned. ‘Should we stop?’

She looked around and noticed something unusual.

Next to the stone pillars, there was a depression which opened up to a spacious area.

The Evil Dragon Wings and other troops could easily pass through.

Upon closer inspection, she guessed that these passages must be set up by the Land of the Old Ones as checkpoints.

To reach the underground, one must pass through them, and there might be monsters blocking the way. This was a common method used in dungeons too.

However, the problem was that the Red-Eyed Black Dragon couldn’t descend.

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon felt very frustrated. Why did revenge have to be so difficult?

“We need someone to stay behind and guard the rear. You can wait here for us to come back,” Xu Yuan said.

The two squads of Evil Dragon Wings went to explore the route, and the others descended onto the passage and proceeded on foot toward the underground.

Excitement surged in Su Wan’s heart. It had been a long time since she had led a small army on an adventure and explored maps.

With the continuous strengthening of the territory, the positions and status of Su Wan and Xu Yuan had undergone tremendous changes. They could no longer take their troops to explore randomly.

In the dim passage, the danger of unknown enemies lurked at every corner. After descending several hundred meters, the aura of the Red-Eyed Black Dragon had completely disappeared.

However, the front passage was much wider.

Su Wan adjusted the formation and let the army adapt to the changes in the surroundings.

At this moment, a low growl came from the dark passage, and the ground began to tremble.

In the dim, enclosed underground passage, the troops of the territory formed a tight defense.

The Evil Dragon Wings stood in the front to block the way, while the Rotten Knights in the back gripped their battleaxes. They were ready to launch an attack at any moment.

The sound became louder at the front.

The low growl sounded as if a beast was hunting its prey.

Under the dim red light, a ferocious monster appeared. Its body was twisted, and it had a sharp spear-like tail.

The ferocious aura emanating from its body was enough to make even seasoned soldiers tremble in fear.

When these monsters saw the Evil Dragon Wings, their eyes turned blood-red, and they roared fiercely. They launched a ferocious attack and charged directly at them.

The Evil Dragon Wings, who possessed the bloodline of the Five-Colored Evil Dragon, did not show any weakness. They counterattacked with their triangular battleaxes.

The battleaxes clashed with claws and sent sparks flying.

The surrounding space lit up.

A brutal and frenzied close combat erupted on the narrow passage. The Rotten Knights in the back had no space to attack. The Ancient Ironclad Beasts suddenly felt their movements slowing down as the gravel in the passage slowly covered them and hindered their attacks.

Even if they noticed it, they had no countermeasures. In close combat, every move could determine victory or defeat.

The Evil Dragon Wings sensed the enemy’s slowed reaction and launched a ferocious attack.

The Ancient Ironclad Beasts were unable to dodge, so they were forced to withstand the attacks.

Under such a powerful assault, the Ancient Ironclad Beasts fell one after another.

Their claws were severed, and the hollow triangular battleaxes struck hard on their chests. Blood gushed out.

The Evil Dragon Wings took advantage of their momentum, and with each round of attacks, their power became stronger. Eventually, they ruthlessly severed the long-tailed creature into two.

After killing the enemy, the strength of the Evil Dragon Wings was enhanced, and they launched even more ferocious attacks on their second target.

Although the Ancient Ironclad Beasts were of the same level as the Evil Dragon Wings, they were currently under Xu Yuan’s command. Xu Yuan’s ability could enhance their attributes and make them stronger.

Under the fierce attack of the Evil Dragon Wings, all three squads of Ancient Ironclad Beasts fell quickly.

The bodies of the fallen Ancient Ironclad Beasts melted into blood and disappeared from the ground. Su Wan regretted it a little.

The bodies of transcendent units were also valuable, so it was a bit of a pity when they disappeared completely.

Through the first round of battle, Xu Yuan and Su Wan gained a clearer understanding of the enemies guarding the Land of the Old Ones.

Although for most Lords, transcendent units could be a nightmare, it wasn’t too difficult for them to fight them as their territory had gotten much stronger in recent months.

As they went further down the passage, the blood-red light emanating from the cliff became even more intense. Everything looked eerie.

Soon, the second wave of enemies appeared.

This time, they didn’t let the Evil Dragon Wings face them alone. Instead, they deployed two squads of Rotten Knights to the frontline to fight alongside the Evil Dragon Wings.

As soon as the battle began, the axes in the hands of the Rotten Knights shot forward and hit the Ancient Ironclad Beasts.

After the Rotten Knights’ level increased, the damage from their axe-throwing skill was further enhanced.

In the confined space, the axes exploded and caused great damage to the enemies.

The attack had a wide range and affected numerous Ancient Ironclad Beasts.

The scorching air surged, and metal fragments flew.

Even before the Evil Dragon Wings had begun to move, most of the Ancient Ironclad Beasts at the front had already fallen..
