However, after searching for a while, they couldn't find the Dragon King, as if these Dragons were just passing by Berk Island, chaotic and aimless.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
Night Fury had been consuming the strength of the sirens these past few days, so he learned to continuously shoot fireballs.
Blue-purple fireballs flew towards the Dragons in front of him, accurately and powerfully striking down three Dragons.
The three Dragons that were hit flapped their wings and fell onto Berk Island.
Seeing this opportunity, Stoick quickly ordered the villagers to rush forward with stone nets, tying up the fallen Dragons and waiting for Hiccup to return to deal with them.
Hiccup had no time to bother with these trivial matters; he rode Night Fury directly back and said to Astrid, "Immediately take two people and tell the villagers!"
"Stand on high ground, and as long as there's no Knight on the Dragon's back, attack directly! All Dragons that are shot down, tie them up and await disposal!"
"Yes!" Astrid took the order without any extra words, directly rode Stormfly down onto Berk Island, and conveyed Hiccup's command to Stoick.
With the chief's help, all the villagers immediately became orderly, each holding a stone net, waiting for an opportunity to attack.
Now, the only way to distinguish friend from foe was to see if there was a Knight on the back of these Dragons.
"Roar~!"
"Roar!"
Hiccup rode Night Fury away from the battlefield, directly hiding in the darkness.
He wasn't fleeing; instead, he was observing the battlefield situation, as a commander, he couldn't rush into battle himself; he had to clearly understand the battlefield situation before making a judgment.
Currently, only about twenty Dragons were attacking Berk Island, and there was no Dragon King present, which could only mean these Dragons were here for a routine raid.
Just like that first night, their target was only the sheep on Berk Island.
After observing for a while, Hiccup realized something was wrong, because these Dragons' targets were not the sheep; it was almost a suicidal attack.
It seemed they were merely trying to injure the Dragon Knights of Berk Island, even at the cost of their own lives.
Such enemies are the most terrifying; they are not only hidden in the dark but also have ample forces and are good at wars of attrition.
However, there were only so many Dragon Knights on Berk Island, and they couldn't afford a war of attrition, so they had to fight a quick battle.
Immediately, Hiccup rode Night Fury and rejoined the battle, quickly dealing with these twenty-plus Dragons, and after shooting them all down, they were all tied up by the villagers on Berk Island.
After the battle ended, the sky became silent.
The villagers below on Berk Island were cheering and shouting, "Great! We won!"
"Odin bless us! We actually achieved victory so easily! Our village wasn't burned, and our villagers weren't harmed! This is simply unprecedented!"
"This is truly incredible; we actually captured twenty-four Dragons alive! Enough for us to sell for a good price!"
"If these Dragons could be tamed after being captured alive, how wonderful would that be!?"
The villagers on Berk Island were cheering excitedly, because this was their greatest victory in history; not only were there no casualties or damage to houses, but they also captured so many Dragons alive.
This made the fierce and warlike Vikings especially excited, and they looked at the Dragon Knight Squad with even more fervent eyes, even greatly admiring Hiccup; without him, Berk Island would never have achieved such a great victory!
All the Dragon Knights were enjoying the glory bestowed upon them by the villagers, listening to all the villagers' praise, which made them momentarily carried away.
But they would never forget Hiccup's teachings because of their pride. So everyone still maintained a state of vigilance, with only their lips curved up sixty degrees!
And now, although the battle was over, Hiccup still frowned deeply; he always felt that this matter was not that simple.
If it wasn't revenge from the Dragons, then someone was instigating them.
The former was not terrifying; the most terrifying was the latter, because the person instigating the Dragons was always hidden in the dark, and he could only passively respond.
The villagers below were still cheering, and all the Dragon Knights looked calmly at the sky, waiting for Hiccup's next command.
Hiccup rode Night Fury, facing the cold wind, and after observing that there were no other Dragons nearby, he slowly landed.
But after landing, Hiccup did not rush to enjoy the praise given by the villagers, but instead told all the Dragon Knights to hide to avoid enemy attacks.
Stoick walked over with a smile, patted Hiccup's shoulder, and said, "If these Dragons can be tamed! Then Berk Island will have even more Dragon Knights!"
Hiccup did not directly answer him, but instead said very solemnly to Stoick, "Father, you must make the villagers strengthen their vigilance! Prevent any outsiders from infiltrating!"
Immediately.
Hiccup rode Night Fury towards Crow Ridge, because his prepared magic potions were stored there, only needing time to settle and not yet ready for use.
However, at night, the light from these magic potions in the pond was especially dazzling, so he had to be very careful.
To prevent any accidents, Hiccup directly took Night Fury and set up a simple tent, lit seven or eight bonfires, and then took turns sleeping with Night Fury!
Because this time the magic potions filled the entire pond, enough for them to conquer the Red Death on Volcano Island, so there could be no mistakes with these magic potions.
When the sun rose the next day, Hiccup quickly collected all the magic potions from the pond, and then patted Night Fury's neck, saying, "Gather all the Dragon Knights!"
"Roar~~~~!"
Night Fury let out a long roar, gathering all the Dragon Knights.
Hiccup looked at them and said, "First, transport these magic potions back to Berk Island! And then, prepare for battle!"
"Yes!"
Everyone answered Hiccup with excited expressions.
After all the magic potions were transported back to Berk Island, Stoick personally led people to guard them, and then Hiccup said, "Release one of the Dragons we captured alive last night!"
"Remember! Don't deliberately release it! Let that Dragon think we exposed a weakness! Let it escape on its own! This way, we can follow behind this Dragon and find the mastermind!"
"We'll directly wipe out all these Dragons that attacked Berk Island in one fell swoop! Do you all understand!?"
Everyone greatly admired Hiccup's strategy, because in their way of thinking, there was only killing! So everyone answered excitedly, "Understood!"
