Chapter 262: Iroh's Thoughts
In the north of the Eastern Continent, on the plains north of Iron Sword City, an important town in the northwest of the Radiant Empire.
An elite army of beast spirits slowly marched across the plains in the direction of Iron Sword City. The queue looked untidy, even scattered, but anyone would be mistaken to think that this army was undisciplined and unproductive. For the beast warriors who are fierce by nature and tend to be wild when fighting, let them strictly abide by military discipline like the Terran army, regardless of the battle march, the queue will be the most important, which will greatly reduce their combat power, so the beast spirit army will never pursue the queue, and even during the battle, the beast warriors will consciously distance themselves from each other, so as to prevent a colleague from killing red-eyed and showing a situation where there is no distinction between friend and foe.
If you want to measure the combat power of an Beast Spirit Army, the simplest and most direct way is to observe the racial composition of the Beast Spirit Clan in this army. If it is dominated by the leopard clan and the wolf clan, then it is basically an attack mobile team that can compete with the Terran cavalry with just two legs; And if the ape race, the fox tribe, and the cat tribe are the majority, then their enemies should pay attention, such a beast spirit clan legion may be very weak in frontal combat, but they are either as good at using various karkilos and intrigues as the human race, or they are similar to the elves and are good at using the power of magic in battle, if there are other beast spirit armies who are good at frontal combat as a foil cover, such an enemy configuration is definitely something that most human legions do not want to encounter.
However, these are just ordinary and common beast spirit races, and the current beast spirit army that is advancing towards Iron Sword City, which is heavily defended by the Radiant Empire, is completely incomparable to those of the above-mentioned races.
The Beamon clan, once the royal clan of the land beast clan, is also the most powerful race among the land beast spirit clan. The strength of the body is comparable to that of the loxonodons; Although the pure running speed is not very fast, the instantaneous explosiveness and coordination of movements are also similar to the leopard and wolf clans, which are known for their speed and flexibility, and even slightly surpass; The only fly in the ointment is that the Beamon clan has few magical talents, but on the contrary, the Beamon clan also has a very strong natural resistance to various magic effects and elemental attribute attacks. During the Creation War, the Beamons were once the strongest fighting race among the Beast Spirit Race...... Until the famous Beast Spirit Clan Death happened.
The Land Beast King, the absolute leader of the Beamon clan, was defeated by the siege of Chaos, captured by the siege of Chaos, and finally fell into the Super Chaos Lord, and at the same time, in that battle, most of the most elite and powerful warriors of the Beamon clan who went out with Bavom at that time were eventually corrupted by Chaos like him and degenerated into lackeys of Chaos.
Next, the mighty Bawom and his fallen Beamon Legion changed from the pride of the Beast Spirit Clan to the nightmare and stain of the Beast Spirit Clan, and the remaining Beamon Clan also changed from the respected Land Beast Clan royal clan to a disgusting existence with Bawom's "great achievements" on the battlefield as a super chaos lord. For the strong combat power of the Beamon clan, even the beast spirit clan is no longer full of admiration for it, but thinks that it is because the Beamon clan "hides cruelty and evil factors in the blood", and believes that although the Beamon clan is strong, it is also difficult to control itself, and it is a group of madmen who will be assimilated by the chaos in front of them on the battlefield and then turn against their comrades.
This kind of prejudice has been accompanied by the Beamon clan since the end of the Creation War, which is of course related to the fallen god of war Beamon who has been active in the eastern border of the Northern Continent even after the end of the war, but at the same time, it is also because the Beamon clan itself is not angry, since the fall of the god of war Beamon and the elite Beamon Legion under his command, although the Beamon clan has not been without a strong warrior for a long time, it can lead the Beamon clan to reverse the prejudice of everyone and regain the honor of the leader, But it never happened again.
But now it's different, in this invasion of the Radiant Empire, Golden Beamon Airo stood out, with invincible strength with the brave but difficult to discipline Bimon army on the battlefield, and at the same time, with this majesty, Aylor forcibly restrained and corrected the Bimon army's extra loose discipline compared to other beast spirit tribes, and also made the Beast Spirit Clan's opinion of the Beamon tribe begin to change greatly because he alone. Because of this, Aillo's prestige within the Beamon clan is now in full swing, and even the younger generation of Beamon has privately begun to compare this golden Beamon with the legendary god of war Beamon of the older generation.
At the moment, this Golden Beamon and his Beamon Legion, after a series of victories on the battlefield on the west side, finally set his sights on Iron Sword City, the most important city of the Radiant Empire in the northwest region of the Eastern Continent, although it is said that the Radiant Empire has hoarded a large number of troops there, and during this time, the Imperial adventurers who appeared on the battlefield with the Imperial Army to compete with them were also concentrated there in large numbers, but perhaps because of the relationship between the Elo commanders, The entire Beamon Legion did not have the slightest nervousness or fear of the imminent battle.
With the presence of Lord Beamon Elo, there is no enemy on the continent that they fear from the Beamon Legion!
With high morale and a lot of trust in the commander, such a strong army is enough to make any general happy...... However, no one noticed that the golden Beamon Airo himself, who was leading the team at the front at the moment, did not look too arrogant, and even his expression seemed to be a little uninterested.
Yes, despite a series of battlefield exploits, despite being considered the new leader of the Beamon Clan, and walking on the right path with the Beamon Clan to regain their honor and reverse their bad image among the Beast Spirit Clan, Elo's heart at the moment did not feel so happy because of this. And the reason why he is like this is not because of the war in front of him, but because of ...... The war itself.
-----
About ten days ago, on the eve of the Beast Spirit Clan's declaration of war on the Radiant Empire.
Boom!
The inside of the large tent, illuminated by the magic lamp, rang out with a muffled sound as the fist slammed against the table.
"Why? High priest, I don't understand! ”
Wearing gold armor, Ai Luo stood up from his seat with an annoyed face, although he had already restrained his emotions, but after all, he was a level 120 strength, even if he deliberately limited his strength, this punch still smashed cracks into the table table that belonged to the owner of the tent in front of him.
"High Priest, IMHO, I don't understand why you gave the order to declare war on the Empire!"
Hearing Iro's words, the old man of the Beast Spirit Clan, the High Priest of the Beast Spirit Clan, Gegtam, who was sitting on the main seat of Iro's head in the center of the tent, was not angry because of Iro's rude behavior and questioning, but just looked at him calmly with an expressionless face.
Iroh, who was originally holding back his anger because of what the high priest told him, wanted to attack, but the moment his eyes made contact with the high priest's pair of deep black eyes, half of the anger dissipated inexplicably, and even produced a kind of heart void that he couldn't tell the source of.
Strange to say, after accidentally obtaining the legacy inheritance left by the Golden Dragon Knight and the Radiant Golden Dragon, as well as the fragments of Godhead hidden in them, Ello's strength has soared, and now he is a level 120 transcendent powerhouse, and it can almost be said that no one in the beast spirit clan can say that he can overpower him in terms of strength, except for the most noble immortal phoenix. And the high priest of the Beast Spirit Clan in front of him, although he also exceeded the limit of level 100 in the general sense, he was only level 110, and it stands to reason that as a stronger party, it is impossible for Ailuo to be suppressed by the other party.
But only when he really faced this old man, Airo could really appreciate the unique majesty of the other party, which had nothing to do with strength, which was precipitated by the old man as a high priest for nearly a hundred years to guide the beast spirit clan forward, full of wisdom and experience.
"High Priest, I don't mean anything else, and I know how willful my thoughts were. But High Priestess, I think you should see it better than I can see what has become on the continent now, especially what happened to the fellow sea beasts who stormed the Inland Sea this time, and it is a wake-up call to all of us......"
Under the wordless gaze of the high priest, Iroh's initial anger gradually subsided, and when he spoke again, although the dissatisfaction was still overflowing, the obvious tone of confrontation and questioning was gone.
“…… The continent of Eussia is now at a critical juncture of life and death, the whole world has become absurd and bizarre, the mysterious adventurers of the visitors from outside the world are running around on the continent to cause all kinds of good and bad things, and the chaos of the northern continent is not willing to settle down and has started the external erosion again, at this juncture, what we should do is to unite all the forces of order to fight against the chaos that is likely to invade us again, instead of provoking a fight within the camp of order, right? ”
After Iroh said this, there was a brief silence in the tent, and then the old man of the beast spirit clan, whom Aeloh called the high priest, slowly spoke, and Iroh agreed with his words in surprise.
“…… That's right, that's right...... That's right, hundreds of years ago, the ancestors of our beast spirit clan said the same......"
If Rococo was present, she might be surprised by the scene at this moment, Airo needless to say, because he obtained the Golden Dragon Knight Inheritance Treasure and obtained a Godhead Fragment to become the owner of the Godhead Fragment who keeps himself, but the High Priest of the Beast Spirit Clan who is talking to Airo at this moment actually has an independent self-consciousness - obviously, this High Priest of the Beast Spirit Clan is the owner of the Godhead Fragment like Elo, or rather, this High Priest is exactly what Rococo has been looking for, Judging from the game data of his previous life, it is likely that the owner of the Godhead Fragment is hidden among the high-ranking leaders of the Beast Spirit Clan.
But it is impossible for the high priest to know that there is a unique being like Rococo in the game of this life, who has always wanted to find him. At this moment, his seemingly old and cloudy black eyes, but inside were incomparably deep, stared directly at Iroh and continued.
“…… That's what the ancestors said, and that's what they did, so at that time we let go of all entanglements and united with the mysterious elemental race, with the powerful and arrogant dragon race, with those elves who were too beautiful to see any fighting power, and with the weak but cunning human race. In order to expel the chaos and protect the order of the continent, the beast spirit clan sent all the warriors in the clan, encouraging everyone to exchange their blood for the glory of order......
“…… In the end, the war was won and lost, the order lost the Northern Continent, and Chaos only gained the Northern Continent, and what about my ancestors who expelled Chaos in order to protect the order? ”
At this point, looking at Iroh, who seemed to have anticipated his next words and clenched his fists as a result, the High Priest continued without joy or sorrow.
"We ...... After losing the god of war Beamon, and losing most of the elite warriors in the clan, our ancestors were driven out of the hinterland of the Eastern Continent where they had lived for generations by the Terrans who were the least injured in the Great War...... Tell me now, Iroh, can you straighten your chest again and repeat what you just said? ”
