Chapter 21: The War Is Only the Beginning
Dark, cold, unknown... These frightening feelings were permeating the young mantis people in front of them, but they did not affect the irrepressible excitement and pride in their hearts. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The tall Mantis Officer patrolled back and forth in front of the thousands of recruits, his eyes full of murderous intent as if he wanted to see through everything in their souls.
"Congratulations to all of you standing here for passing the first trial and proving your strength in the fierce battles of countless young people. But that's just the beginning, and there's a lot of glory ahead for you. ”
"But before I do that, I have a question for you! Who the hell are you loyal to?! ”
"The Great Empress Colonia! Great Freelander Voltes! The Great Mantis Empire! The frantic cheers and shouts made the non-commissioned officer nod in satisfaction, and a strange clan inscription on his light and sturdy shoulder armor was glowing cyan.
"Excellent! Not bad will! You are not loyal to the conservative council, nor to the short-sighted lords. Because they are like dust and they can't command you like you! Only the great Immortals can command you! Lead you! ”
"This is not only because he is the unparalleled prime minister in the world since ancient times, but more importantly, he is the only incarnation of the great ancient god Ashaji! That alone is enough to make us die allegiance to him! ”
"You're really lucky! Having passed the trial, you join one of the legions under the command of the Prime Minister, which is something that many people dream of. But I'll make it clear to you that the place I'm taking you to is known only to those within the Legion, and if anyone is impatient, I don't think you want to try the taste of a halberd piercing your body. As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the recruits turned pale, and then they immediately expressed their loyalty to the non-commissioned officer in fear.
"That's it! I also know that you who worship the prime minister cannot have this kind of thought, but I still have to teach you the first lesson that should be there. Now you can follow me through the back gate, your future awaits you! ”
In the dull sound of the door opening, a blinding light dispelled the endless darkness, and the recruits, who had recovered after a brief blindness, were lost in the majestic scene before them.
What a magnificent scene! The towering Kepa Tree in the middle was emitting an intoxicating scent of amber, and the recruits were willing to bet their glory that even the one hidden in the palace was not as majestic as the one in front of them.
The next thing that catches your eye is the strange buildings that stand proudly in the sky like dazzling stars, and countless wise scholars are constantly shuttling in them, and they do not want to waste a second of their time in the ocean of wisdom. Mighty mages are experimenting with and perfecting their spells in the air, and the light of destruction looms in and out with the roar of magic.
And in the bustling expanse of the barracks, valiant warriors of all sizes are engaged in a brutal competition, and each defeat means a step forward in gaining favor. Symphonic metal pounding sounds can be heard from the buzzing arsenal, where every moment a freshly baked epic weapon is distributed to each soldier.
Finally, there are these malicious buildings in front of you, which are placed on the edge of the city for a reason. In the cold and gloomy laboratories, ruthless scientists are creating endless fear and despair, while in the wild and rugged testing grounds, frenzied testers are testing horrific weapons of war.
"That's it! Cheer up! I don't want the other legions to see the joke! Now everyone stay in formation and follow in my footsteps to the territory of Lord Lyth the Windtalker, don't have any extra thoughts! There's no ban on fighting, and it's a little bit away from the buildings on the side of the road! Unless you want to be a test subject for some mad guy's failure. The stern reprimand of the non-commissioned officer made the recruits quickly regain their form, and with a cautious and curious attitude, they quickly walked into this unheard of majestic city-state.
In the center of the Amber Sacred Tree, the splendid Amber Hall is no longer in the same shabby and dilapidated condition as it began. Countless officers and staff officers were constantly analyzing and studying the current situation in Pandalia like a tight machine, and countless trivial and complicated information gradually converged into a crystal clear river and passed on to the various orders of the regiment like a forked stream
Bit.
In the innermost chamber, the Immortal was discussing his future plans with his proud subordinates.
"So Thor's idiot is planning to use our territory as a garbage disposal station, huh! He's really good at it! We're not interested in helping him clean up the portal, and disposing of that waste is an insult to our soldiers. ”
"But if you let it go, those despicable people will definitely take advantage of the situation and invade and occupy our territory, and then our situation will be very passive." Rice, the Wind Whisperer, who was standing aside, hurriedly dissuaded his leader.
"You, you're still so anxious after becoming a lord. I just don't think it's fun to fight with them, and if you want to fight, you'll have an earth-shattering showdown! I think the idiots must have had funny expressions then! ”
"But my lord, our army is not ready for all-out war right now! How can you have a life-and-death battle with the other party! Syller, the mountain shaper, was as old-fashioned and serious as his serious character, and immediately spoke out against it.
"Don't worry, Sylle. You should be aware of the rapid progress of the Legion here, so let's report on the results of your Legion's training first. ”
"Yes, as your Excellency said, my legion now has reached the strength of 200,000 men. The coordination between each class is already very skillful, coupled with the powerful use of magic and weapons. The lowly was confident that he could completely repel their attacks, and the lowly believed that the lords present had the same idea. The mountain-shaper's answer was echoed by the lords present, who were not only well-trained and cooperative, but also highly motivated, eagerly awaiting the opportunity to unsheath their swords.
"That's why I said I'm going to start a big war! Now that we are fully prepared for war, why don't we take the initiative? With a few small sneak attacks and a few realistic defeats in the back, this would make the fool who claimed to be a god run over and offer his head in high spirits. Gee! It's kind of fun to think about! ”
"I see, my leader. Such a tactic can indeed work wonders, but it will require the support of the Council of Karaksi and the other lords to succeed! And the other lords are against us..."
"It's not like you, the Frost Breaker, Ryonko. Most of the current lords are young generals like you, and among them, they are divided into the descendants headed by you and the side groups that are envious and jealous of you. The small friction between you, though not very serious, can develop very seriously if it is not stopped immediately. That's why I've ordered you to stay in their territory, and let the two sides compete evenly. ”
"As for the Council, have you forgotten that the current Great Elder Supreme Kolvan, who is also a hero with me, prefers to be a warrior who fights bloodily on the battlefield?"
"By the way, tell them what I said: if you want to win the admiration of the Empress and me, you should focus on the next battle, and whoever performs better will be rewarded more and better. I still have a few legions left under my command, and I hope they don't let me down! ”
"Of course! If you lose, get out of the legion, so you can't be lazy, understand! ”
"That's right! I heard that Gallast has recently invented some interesting gadgets, can you tell us about your discovery? The Immortal, who suddenly thought of something interesting, began to inquire about the other subordinates.
Gallast, the Fire Chanter, smiled proudly and stepped forward and reported loudly, "You're right, I recently stumbled upon a strange gadget that I was going to bring to you to watch today. At the same time as the debriefing, an amber isolation device was pushed up.
"This was born by accident of the Legion's mages during an experiment, when the Amber Ooze Monster used for the experiment was mutated after hormonal modification. As mages attempted to destroy it, they discovered that the subject had the power to absorb elemental energy and use it for it, and after a terrible battle, it was shattered into countless pieces. But the fragmented parts became new instances, so we grabbed them all and studied them, and we were amazed by the results. ”
"Through experiments on them, we found that they can absorb up to three different elemental energies. They are able to transform and fuse them into a myriad of incredibly powerful powers, which greatly enhances the understanding of magic and the elements of our mages and scholars. They can also transform into a variety of forms to fight, and controlling them is as easy and effective as controlling the Dinosaur. ”
"Of course, this discovery has been shared and communicated with the other lord's laboratories." Garast, the Flame Chanter, explained that he succeeded in dispelling the resentful look in the eyes of several other lords, "Do you still treat me as a friend if you don't share such a good thing?"
"There's no official name for this test subject yet, so please name it."
"Name? Let's call it Zach. "The Immortal didn't hesitate to borrow the name of the hero from the game in his previous life to name this gentle little thing in front of him.
"One last thing, Prime Minister. The gossip about this has been circulating throughout the army lately, you see..."
"Oh, it seems that there are still some impatient lads who have revealed what is going on here! But that's okay anymore, since it's all spreading, it's better to tell them some of the situation here, so you don't have to hide it like that. They would be very excited to know that the newly created legions would be stationed in such places in the future. Think of this as the jackpot for this contest, Giraud the Devil. ”
"Go down and get ready, guys! It's hunting season! ”
"Your will!" Several lords said in unison.
As the open door closes again, Voltés strolls to the high platform behind him and begins to admire the scene below. The majestic architecture and the neat and solemn legions did not let him indulge in the vanity of supreme power, and the rational and pragmatic nature of the scientists in his previous life made him not to do such arrogant and ignorant stupid things even if he was in a position above ten thousand people.
Watching this place gradually change from empty to bustling and bustling now, this kind of pride is really good. This level is still not enough, maybe it's time to complete the upgrade of the artifact, and by the way, you can also go to see the old elemental friends who haven't been seen for a long time.
The war is only the beginning, and it never ends.
