To tell the truth, although there is an element of exaggeration with subjective emotions in what the high priest said, it is true that it is not made up without purpose.

Hundreds of years ago, during the Creation War, the Five Genesis came together at a critical juncture in the world and worked together to prevent Chaos from invading from the Northern Continent - that being said, but for the ultimate result, the price paid by the Creation Five was basically heavy losses.

Exclude the mysterious elemental race, which can be said to be almost completely devoid of the concept of a racial state, and therefore impossible to calculate losses. On the dragon side, among the six ancestral dragons, the Red Dragon of Purgatory and the Blue Dragon of Frost Night fell into Chaos, the Golden Dragon of Radiance fell, the Silver Dragon of the Netherworld was missing, and the pure-blooded dragon was less than a third of them. On the side of the Beast Spirit Clan, the Land Beast King's God of War was more than Mombawom, and the Sea Beast King Abyss Hydra Najlik was seriously injured, and the population of the clan was sharply reduced by more than half, and the middle-aged males who were elite combat forces accounted for the majority; Even the slightly better elves, in addition to a large number of casualties, are also due to the fact that many excellent warriors and spellcasters have died or fallen on the battlefield, resulting in the loss of many ancient skills in the elves.

Compared with these races that are also in the order camp, although the human race has also suffered huge casualties, it has not reached the point where it has even shaken the foundation of the race like the dragon race and the beast spirit race, considering that the human race has a large population and reproductive ability is also the strongest among the five races, the loss of the human race is much smaller than that of the elven race with the lightest loss among other races.

This is not to say that the Terrans in the Creation War because of greed for life and fear of death, and used tricks similar to letting the allies stand in front of themselves, mainly because during the Creation War, the natural strength of the Terrans in combat was too weak compared to other races, so a large part of the Terrans' tasks in the order alliance at that time were as a logistical aid to allow other races to invest their troops on the battlefield with peace of mind, and even if the Terran army went to the battlefield, it was basically not the main offensive and defensive force, For example, a tough battle or even a bloody battle that will produce a large number of casualties, the human race has not experienced too much, and the casualties are naturally much more limited.

The casualties are limited, the recovery ability is strong, and there is a very important point - because the situation of various races working together to hide each other's secrets during the war has been greatly reduced, and the Terrans, who are good at learning and accommodating, have obtained a large number of magical martial arts and even survival skills from other races, and from the perspective of racial civilization, the Terrans have become more advanced and powerful after experiencing a creation war.

It is precisely because of these reasons that the Terrans, who were originally the most vulnerable on the continent, rose rapidly after the end of the Creation War, when the Elemental Race and the Dragon Race kept a low-key hid from the world, while the Elven Race still stuck to the elven forest, and became the de facto ruler of the devastated Eumisia continent after the war. The rise of the human race does not have much impact on the elemental dragon race and the elf race, after all, there are not too many contradictions between them and the human race, as long as the human race does not lose its mind, it will not provoke them, but only the beast spirit race, but because of the tide of the rise of the human race, it has suffered another major blow since the creation war.

The human race and the beast spirit race were originally at odds with each other because of the competition for survival resources, before that, the beast spirit race was stronger than the human race, and in this contradictory struggle, it was also suppressed on the human race everywhere, and after the creation war, the situation between the two sides was reversed, coupled with the new grudge formed in the creation war, the human race actually took advantage of the fact that the other races did not pay attention to the beast spirit race and did not think of it, and directly launched a full-scale war against the beast spirit race that had not yet recovered from the war.

In the end, the Beast Spirit Clan, which had lost a large number of elite combat power in the war, was completely defeated by the Terrans who not only suffered the least losses but also made a lot of profits in the war, and the Beast Spirit tribes that were originally scattered throughout the continent were driven out of their original residences by the Terrans one after another, and in order to find a place to live, they could only migrate to the large settlement of the Beast Spirit Clan established by the Immortal Phoenix in the north of the Eastern Continent and the strange domain ruled by the Black and White Dragon King and the Black Dragon and White Dragon Clans on the west side of the South Continent.

To be fair, what really made the beast spirits suffer was the long-standing grudge between them and the Terrans, as well as the unexpected greed and determination of the Terrans. However, even if the outspoken beast spirits understood this, they would not blame the greed of the human race for this humiliating tragedy for them back then. For the naturally wild beast spirit race, no matter what tricks the other party wipes, how unfavorable the external situation is, defeat is defeat, and failure is because their strength is not strong enough to win in any situation - if it were not for the fact that they invested all their combat power in the chaos battlefield for the sake of order and belief during the creation war and suffered heavy losses, even in the face of the sudden and despicable attack of the human race, they would never have fallen into such an embarrassing defeat.

This kind of thinking has been around for a long time within the Beast Spirit Clan, and now that the High Priest has spoken these words nakedly, even Iroh, who just said that "the continent is facing a crisis now, we should unite against Chaos", is difficult to answer at this time.

There was silence for a few more moments before Iroh looked away from the high priest as if he had given in the towel, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Even so, we can't just watch Chaos invade the continent and the glory of order and goddesses, right?"

Looking at the soft Aelo, the momentum of the high priest before also retracted, and he turned back into the original old man who only made people feel his wisdom.

"That's right, as a member of the Order, we naturally can't let Chaos awaken from the Northern Continent once again and unscrupulously erode the land that should belong to Order...... As you said before, the continent of Eushya has changed beyond recognition, and it is a critical moment when order is in danger and chaos is on the rise, which is why we should learn from the lessons of our ancestors and prepare accordingly before the second 'Creation War' begins, which we do not know when it will break out. ”

"The so-called preparation of the High Priest is to attack the Radiant Empire?"

"To be precise, to occupy the land of the Radiant Empire."

Hearing this, Iroh turned his head to look at the High Priest again, this time not with a question, but with a look of confusion on his face.

“…… I don't understand. ”

"As Iroh said, the continent of Emissia has become absurd and bizarre, everything has changed beyond recognition—and in the end, there are actually only two things that matter."

As he said this to Ello, the black pupils of the High Priestess of the Beast Spirit Clan deepened once more.

"The first point is that all living beings in this world, with the exception of a very few who are favored by the goddess like us, have all lost their sense of self and have become able to do so within some unknowable framework." The puppet that has been prescribed to 'do' has also lost control over the process of its own destiny, and the second point is that in the case that almost all living beings have lost the control of their own destiny process, the overall law and fate line of this world still exists and guides the direction of the world in the dark, but what replaced the original world creatures to become the fate leader is a group of mysterious people who are suspected to be from the inexplicable void outside this world.

"As for the reason for such drastic changes in the continent, for these mysterious people who come from outside the world but have the power to dominate the fate process of this world, even those of us who are favored by the goddess have not received any enlightenment, what we can figure out is that for the indigenous souls other than us, only by attracting these mysterious people to take the initiative to intervene in their own destiny process can it be possible for them to break away from the fixed status quo and change, as for whether the direction of change is good or bad, It also depends entirely on the choice of these mysterious people.

"On the other hand, these mysteries belong to the Order just like us, and although they all appear to be Terrans, they actually have a potential to grow in strength that the Terrans of the Eumethia continent do not have. Each of them is able to increase their strength through battle, and this way of improving seems to have no barriers to strength in the ordinary sense, as long as they continue to fight, they can continue to live and improve, and at the same time they will not die in a meaningful sense - in other words, given enough time, these mysterious people can even reach the level where everyone is on a par with you and me.

"The most important point is that these mysterious people obviously have such powerful abilities and supreme power to promote the process of fate on the continent of Ethemia after the upheaval, but they have no awareness of the meaning behind this - as long as they think about it, they may become the masters of this strange and absurd world at any time, even if they expel Chaos, for these mysterious people with great potential and will not die, it is just a 'big project' that takes a little longer...... But these mysterious people have shown no interest in ruling the world.

"They help or destroy the aborigines by helping them trigger the fate process, but in fact they have no interest in the final good or bad outcome of the natives, and seem to simply want to achieve some kind of goal by triggering the fate process; They are keen to crusade against enemies and even chaos that threaten the natives, but instead of protecting the natives, they can make themselves stronger; They are constantly exploring every aspect of the world, but their purpose is closer to that of merchants or robbers who want to reap the benefits of each place they call themselves 'adventurers'......"

Speaking of this, the high priest licked his lips and then said his conclusion.

“…… Perhaps there are more traits and abilities of these mysterious people that I don't know about, but at least as far as I can see, although these alien mysterious people seem to be the masters of the continent of Eumisia after the upheaval, in fact, no matter how powerful they are, the fact that they do not have any real in-depth pursuit of this world determines that they will never be able to truly control the fate of this world.

"You don't become the dominant one, but you have the absolute power of the dominant one...... Since I understood this, I have a little more guesses about the appearance of these mysterious adventurers and the changes in this world, and now in the Storm Inland Sea, our fellow Sea Beasts have stopped the conspiracy of Chaos with the help of the power of these mysterious adventurers, and finally succeeded in defending half of the Inland Sea under the ferocious attack of Chaos, my thoughts have become even stronger.

"These mysterious adventurers, they are not here to dominate the world and dominate us, on the contrary, they are the best helpers of our aborigines, and they can even be said to be the best 'weapons', not that they dominate our destiny, but that we should guide their forces and use them to defeat the chaos that our ancestors could not completely defeat, and save the continent of Eumisia in crisis."
