Tidal Sea West Coast, clouds of fire have ignited the sky, reddening half the heavens.
However, this fire cloud is not caused by the setting sun, but has truly set the sky ablaze.
Because the Flame Demon Gross is only 30 kilometers away from the coastline.
The hundred-meter-long Flame Demon Gross can already see the beach, and for it, the land is within reach.
As soon as it lands, it vows to make those who try to stop it pay a horrific price.
Flame Demon Gross knows well that there is one person in this world who can be its rival, and that is the Sea Demon Clan's High Priestess, who holds the [Heart of the Tides].
This is the reason it is eager to get ashore; as soon as it leaves the Tidal Sea, it can escape the area covered by the Sea God's power.
By then, in the entire Dragon Sleep World, there will be no existence that can match it.
Now, it is only 30 kilometers from the coastline, and with its speed, it only needs 10 minutes to get ashore.
For the past hour or more, it has endured the attacks from the Black Iron Dwarves, Summoners, and Sea Demon Clan without retaliating.
Its fury has reached the limit, and once ashore, it will let these lowly creatures feel its wrath.
The closer to the coastline, the more anxious Dwarf King Sorreville Copper Furnace becomes; he is covered with scars and burns, yet he stakes his life to stand against Flame Demon Gross.
This is the Black Iron Dwarves' last hope.
The Black Iron Dwarves have experienced multiple migrations generations ago, splitting into several branches scattered across the world.
Until the appearance of Sorondal, who led the Copper Furnace Tribe to establish a new home at the Molten Crown.
A century has passed, and the Black Iron Dwarves thrived here, developing into a kingdom.
Although this Black Iron Dwarf Kingdom isn't large, with only three cities, it's the largest kingdom the Black Iron Dwarves have developed over a century.
Once the Copper Furnace Kingdom falls, the Black Iron Dwarves will face yet another migration.
The Black Iron Dwarves might not have the luck they once had to find a new homeland, and might become extinct in migration.
Not only Dwarf King Sorreville Copper Furnace, but all Black Iron Dwarf warriors understand this, so they fight desperately to stop Flame Demon Gross, not backing down even an inch.
Not only offshore, but a Black Iron Dwarf army has gathered onshore, lining up war chariots on the beach, ready for battle.
As soon as Flame Demon Gross steps into range, they will launch an attack.
Dwarf King Sorreville Copper Furnace once resisted Flame Demon Gross's fiery breath, with his beard catching fire.
He rolled and flew out, fell into the sea, and grabbed a handful of seawater to extinguish his burning beard.
He climbed from the water, tearfully looking at the shattered remains of warships around him.
He can already see the coastline behind him; time is running short.
Relying solely on the Black Iron Dwarves' strength, they have no ability to stop Flame Demon Gross.
He is the king of the Black Iron Dwarves; if he could sacrifice his life to perish with Flame Demon Gross, he would not hesitate.
Only, he knows in his heart that even if he sacrifices his life, he can't stop Flame Demon Gross.
Facing a powerful Demon King from the Abyss, his strength is far from enough.
He resents not having his grandfather Sorondal the Great's magnificent power, unwilling to see the tribe perish in his hands.
He raises his head, with reddened eyes, and looks towards Su Muyu not far away, asking, "Can Mr. Lu still make it back?"
Su Muyu is also unsure; the last contact revealed that Lu Heng was on his way back, but whether he can arrive before Flame Demon Gross lands is still uncertain.
If Flame Demon Gross lands, even if Lu Heng comes back with the Sea Demon Clan's High Priestess, it will be too late.
Even with the [Heart of the Tides], the Sea Demon Clan can only unleash the Sea God's power in the ocean.
Therefore, once Flame Demon Gross lands, even if the Sea Demon Clan arrives, it won't change the outcome.
Su Muyu solemnly said, "He summoned to hurry back; all we can do is trust him. Also..."
She paused before continuing: "Lu Heng told me that if we finally cannot stop Flame Demon Gross, Copper Furnace Tribe should leave the Molten Crown and migrate southeastward to seek out the Molten Lava Plain, where a Black Iron Dwarf city exists."
This is the best strategy should they fail to stop Flame Demon Gross; a ruler must always prepare for the worst.
No one can succeed forever; those who persist will minimize losses in times of failure.
If the Black Iron Dwarf Kingdom cannot stop Flame Demon Gross, they must plan for the worst case, and leading the tribe to migrate is the only choice once Flame Demon Gross returns to the Molten Crown.
Dwarf King Sorreville Copper Furnace naturally understands this reasoning.
Before the battle started, Lu Heng had discussed this matter with him, mentioning the existence of Black Stone City.
Black Stone City's Black Iron Dwarves are a branch of the Dakville Tribe.
Since Lu Heng helped the Dakville Tribe reclaim Black Stone City, they have developed rapidly.
If the Copper Furnace Tribe must migrate, heading to Black Stone City is indeed a good choice.
However, the distance between Molten Crown and Black Stone City is vast, making it a decision not easily made.
