Even as the Goblin Wyvern Knights were doing their best to break down the bomber planes, they realised the numbers were only growing. With each plane they shot down, another two more emerged from afar.
And to make things worse, the bomber planes were kamikazing, throwing themselves at Jin's Army as much as their planes could take. Demon Rats were also seen to be strapped with explosives and bombs that were heavier than their weight so that they could use a booster to make themselves akin to guided missiles.
The only difference from the concept of guided missiles was that the Demon Rats were sacrificing themselves to make sure the explosives get to where they were going, to destroy as much as the zombie horde as they could. For the armoured vehicles that were driven by the Dark Templars, most of them were able to continue to charge forward to the city centre
Thus, the only solution was to annihilate the bomber planes, combusting them in mid air so that the recovering zombie horde would not take the brunt of the damage. However, it was extremely dangerous for the Goblin Wyvern Knights to do so because the mid air explosions were equally deadly to the wyvern riders.
To counter this, Jin had decided to send in Marquis Forneus and his mechanised company of Dragon Devils. This half metal half dragon menace was the latest fighting force that had been sent into the fray against the suicidal bomber planes and the Demon Rat's remaining airforce.The explosions might be a little damaging to the Dragon Devils but their mechanised selves that had been enhanced by the System allowed them to repair on the go, enabling the Dragons to move from one bomber plane to another rather easily. Marquis Forneus even took the initiative to send his dragon to throw out a hyper charged beam to burn down the latest wave of Demon Rat planes.
In the meantime, the Pandarens were in awe by the appearances of dragons since they were always seen as a symbol of might and strength especially when it comes to the fight for the skies. Those who had joined the Defence of Pandapolis previously initially thought that the Dragon Devils were enemies until they realised that they were on the same side and subsequently cheered for them.
With the intervention of the Dragon Devils, this gave the zombie horde some time to gain back their momentum and Half Ghoul Lord Derek continued to push the horde out using the roads that were initially cleared by the convoy of the armoured vehicles.
Stragglers were still around even after the initial push by the armoured vehicle convoy but at the very least, the Dark Templars had forced the Demon Rats to push their attention to the armed convoy since they were getting closer to the city centre.
And as expected when the Dark Templars forced their way through, they were met with heavy resistance. Impromptu fortification such as makeshift walls filled with metal junk and sandbags to heavily reinforced guard posts which were near impossible to go near. Some of the Dragon Devils were able to answer calls by the Dark Templars asking for a quick fly by and they obliged, allowing the armed mobile convoy to move deeper than Jin had expected them to do so.
Yet, most of them reached an impasse as the fighting got extremely intense and most of their vehicles were destroyed with dozens of rockets flying to halt their tracks. A number of Dark Templars managed to survive and decided to dash into buildings not just for safety from the overarching shots from urban warfare but also to score some kills.
With the power and courage granted to them by Mr Derpy, their object of worship, their skin turned scaly and secreted a kind of slime which enabled them to block gunshots to a certain degree. If the shots were far enough, the build up of slime on their skin would stop the attack but if the shots were near, they might graze the scales that had or maybe injure them slightly.This allowed the Dark Templars to fight at a very demanding pace and massacre the Demon Rats while they hide in the buildings and gain some environmental advantage. The only time some of these Templars were killed was when the Demon Rats bombed the entire apartment building down, crashing their kind within the debris in the process.
This series of events made the Demon Rats realise that the cultivators were clearly not the threat and they were right to reserve most of their firepower for Jin's minions. It was apparently so for the Air Force General Gnawbones who he saw that his remaining fleet of planes was dwindling at a rate he could have never imagined.
If mechanical units were not a match to Jin's monsters, then perhaps it was time to release their own monsters to fight against such monsters. The Demon Rats had not been idle after being engaged in multiple skirmishes with Jin's minions before this great defensive war they were currently fighting.
Behind the scenes, they had started to make their very own monsters or chimaeras as one would call them. This was because they knew that when they die, they would turn to a certain random resource. It could vary from something precious like gold to something ridiculous like a bag of feathers.
But it was previously because there was something like a bag of feathers, such Demon Rats were used as the base core for these mutations, creating Demon Rat Chimaeras that were out of this world. There were plenty which the Demon Rats had made and especially when they used the research left by Weslie, the Scholar of the West before she was rescued by Gold, these Chimaeras were strengthened and specialised to monsters that were suited to the Demon Rats' military needs.
Right now, one such monster was the Flying Rat Chimaeras and Gnawbone had decided to unleash a bunch of them all hungry for a fight.
