"A very powerful monster is approaching from the sky! It's too fast! We can't avoid it! Prepare to face it!"

In the ruins of Holy Capital Aifilan, on a more secluded street, Sandra and her group had just carefully cleared this hidden route of various monsters. Sandra, who had been watching the changes in the crystal in her hand, suddenly shouted a loud warning.

"What kind of monster is it?"

"How strong is it?"

"How do we deal with it?"

The group, who had killed so many monsters along the way and had never seen Sandra so tense, immediately became alert. They all gripped their weapons tightly, looking towards the sky and both sides of the street, while quickly asking Sandra for more detailed information.

"No time to explain! It's almost here! The direction is over there!"

Faced with the questions from the crowd, Sandra immediately used a space storage method to retract the All-Seeing Crystal, then quickly pulled out a mysterious longbow shining with magical brilliance from within, drew the bowstring without an arrow, and conjured a magic arrow out of thin air aiming towards a position in the sky.

Following the direction she aimed the bow, the group couldn't spot any monster appearing there, but they could feel the oppressive darkness around them suddenly surge, weighing down on everyone's hearts like a heavy stone, and this invisible suppression was quickly intensifying!

"What terrifying pressure! What kind of monster have we encountered?!"

Among the group, an older NPC professional looked at the empty sky with shock and loudly asked, apparently experiencing such a scary situation for the first time in his not-so-short career.

But before Sandra, who was drawing the magic longbow preparing to shoot, could respond to him, the true menace appeared in the sky!

First, a dragon skull larger than a carriage and burning with fierce flames emerged from the edge above the street they were on, followed by a huge body made entirely of skeletal structure, all bathed in wicked flames, appearing and completely covering the sky over the street. Then, the giant, terrifying beast, resembling a flaming Bone Dragon, suddenly flapped its wings of fire, scattering large fireballs like meteors towards the people below!

"Everyone, scatter! Attack separately! We have no retreat!"

As the leader of the team, Sandra's face was already illuminated red by the many fireballs falling from the sky. If anyone observed closely, they would notice her body had begun to tremble slightly, but she didn't choose to retreat. Instead, she faced the immense invisible pressure of a powerful enemy, shot the magic arrow while moving, and loudly instructed the group to scatter to avoid attacks and counterattack.

"Oh my God! What horrifying monster is this!"

"Hell Demon Dragon! It's a Hell Demon Dragon!"

"Quick! Quickly attack it! Use all your strongest methods!"

...

Facing the formidable enemy, the mission team members responded differently. Some were momentarily shocked, others remained more composed. But as professionals who dared enter the treacherous ruins of the Holy Capital, none of them were truly frightened. They quickly dodged the falling fireballs on the street and, whether quickly or slowly, began to counterattack.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Boom! Boom! Boom!

For a moment, various bullets fired by shooter players, long-range magical attacks by NPC magic professionals and Mage players, covered the sky above the street like the densest fireworks, all targeting the body of the dragon in the sky!

As a melee professional, Wang Zhifan wasn't idle either. Standing next to his red-haired mage partner Andre, he swiftly slashed all fireballs attacking their surroundings through the air, fulfilling his defensive and auxiliary duties. Meanwhile, his strong sense of perception enveloped the large flaming Bone Dragon above, assessing its real-time situation.

"Their attacks seem to have no obvious effect? Especially Andre and others' fireball attacks, hitting it with no reaction at all?"

Only two seconds later, using his sensory perception to probe the situation in the sky, Wang Zhifan discovered the situation was very grim. The attacks from the people on the ground hitting the Hell Demon Dragon seemed to have no noticeable reaction, nearly not even breaking the defense!

"Everyone quickly dodge! It's going to swoop down and breathe fire!"

Not to mention the first wave of attacks being ineffective, the massive monster in the sky didn't linger much and act as a live target. It then flapped its huge fiery wings and flew into the sky, then turned to swoop down, opening a dragon skull larger than a carriage to spew hellfire as thick as a building at the street where the group was!

This creature seemed to know well the professionals and players below were restricted in the street environment. So intentionally, it spewed the massive fire column along the street surface, swaying slightly from left to right, burning quickly from the head to the tail of the street, barely giving them any space to dodge.

Thus, the group had no choice but to start desperately fleeing. Melee players and professionals unleashed speed to escape, magical ones, unable to run very fast, could only use their strongest defensive measures hoping they could withstand it. But all of them were overshadowed by a heavy cloud in their hearts, knowing even if they escape temporarily, what then? In the situation where they can't effectively hurt the dragon in the sky, in the position they are in the monster-infested ruins of the Holy Capital, they have basically failed, left only with struggle and death!

"It's over... Baron... I can't complete the task you assigned... I chose the wrong route... I really deserve to die..."

Also frantically fleeing from the approaching hellfire behind, Sandra's heart was already filled with bitterness and coldness. She had just witnessed her and the group's attacks being completely ignored by the giant monster in the sky without causing any damage, and now with even a casual round of attack, they were at risk of a total annihilation of the team. This all indicated the task had essentially failed, with no chance of a comeback, and they would meet their end in this terrifying place.

But things didn't develop as Sandra imagined. Just as she thought she would perish in the terrifying flames chasing from behind, the intense heat suddenly disappeared, then a huge tremor and the sound of something large crashing down came from behind, almost knocking her over with the rush of air from behind.
