Chapter 159: Prelude to the Great Era (3)
While Iroh inquired about the status of the nuclear fission research, an unprecedented upheaval was taking place in the central hall of the Ironstone Tribe.
On both sides of the long corridor are stone walls made of white hard stone, carved with intricate and delicate patterns, and flowing lines are extremely rare decorative styles. At the window on the wall, a brilliant light shines in, forming neatly shaped spots on the ground.
This is the heart of the Ironstone Tribe, the Temple of the God of War.
At this moment, two figures, one tall and one short, were walking through the corridor unhurriedly, and then through a golden door, they walked inside.
One of them was dressed in a white and gold cloak, and his face was shrouded in a hood, and only the corners of his mouth could be seen. The other was an ordinary black cloak, and the simple battle armor on the arms that emerged from the cloak could be faintly seen, and the blood-basind maw of a beast on the cloak behind him was extremely eye-catching.
It can be determined that they are not the god of war of the Ironstone Tribe, let alone ordinary members. Not only because at this moment, almost all the god of war and martial guards of the Ironstone Tribe have gathered inside the main hall, but also because ...... Breath.
To be precise, no matter what the aura of the God of War Wuwei and his subordinates is, as long as they are in this mysterious hall, they will show a trace of solemnity and sacredness, but these two people, all they can feel is an endless void.
Both of them were silent all the way, without words. The man with the armor on his arm looked a little cold, like a ghost who had just crawled out of the cemetery, and the invisible spiritual pressure hovered around him, as if ready to fight at any moment. And although the white-robed man did not show any killing intent, his energy fluctuations seemed to be completely suppressed, making people think of what an amazing scene it would be when he was in full swing.
Walking along the corridor to the end, pushing open the golden door, the two of them were greeted by a picture that they had long anticipated.
This is a golden hall, with a giant white ** magic circle engraved on the empty ground, and dozens of small magic array arches around it, filled with an incomparably mysterious atmosphere. On the walls and even on the ceiling, there are dense tiny runes, which make the magical atmosphere in the entire hall more and more intense, and the magic power flows like substance, and finally converges into the giant magic circle in the center of the floor.
Without the brilliant light of the past, the light source here comes from the exquisitely carved crystal sconces placed on the walls at intervals, which are called wall lamps, but in fact, to be precise, they should be said to be mirror-sized crystals inlaid in the walls. The crystal exudes a psychedelic and brilliant light, I don't know if it is fire or a gem or something else, and it rises and falls in each crystal.
In the center of the hall, all the seven warriors of the Ironstone Tribe gathered here.
"It is worthy of being one of the three major orc tribes, even if it lost almost all of the God of War Martial Guards in that combat power, it has now been replenished. β
The man in the white robe smiled and spoke directly, as if he was not surprised by the luxurious lineup of seven legendary powerhouses in front of him.
"Hmph, the Ironstone Tribe won't give in, Brooklyn!" one of the young and vigorous men glared at the tall figure behind the white-robed man, "Even if you find a helper, our chief has already gone to pray for the power of the god of war...... And you, who have long turned your back on the way of the God of War, will not be able to be blessed by the God of War!"
The power of the god of war is the last trump card of the Ironstone tribe, and at the moment when the tribe is in the midst of life and death, the chief can summon a trace of the god of war's divine power possession, and then directly break through to the demigod level!
Of course, this method is also quite damaging to the body, even a strong person like Angelina who has reached the legendary high level, receiving the power of the god of war can only last for five minutes at most, and if it continues, it will be irreparably damaged.
"Oh?" the black-robed man slammed off the hood that covered his face, and it was Brudrin, the orc-bear, who had appeared in the core of darkness earlier, and was also the chief of the Blood-Eating Tribe!
"I don't care what happens to that woman, but I know that soon, you will all be my belly food!"
As the leader of the strongest blood-eating tribe among the three tribes, Brudrin is naturally not as simple as it seems. This savage and cruel orc chieftain loves nothing more than eating human flesh raw, even while the other party is still alive, whether it is a human or an orc!
What's even more terrifying is that Brudrin even relied on this hobby to specialize in cultivating a stunt, which can directly extract the flesh and blood essence of the enemy.
So far, only the "Snow Wolf" members of the Icewind Tribe, relying on the advantage of the mutated flesh and blood of the power dragon Galion, have successfully forced Brudrin to spit out the devoured flesh essence.
Others who opposed Brooklyn...... No one was spared!
"Needless to say," the white-robed man was not annoyed by the attitude of a few war god warriors, but smiled with interest and said softly, "Anyway, these guys will be able to meet Angelina soon." β
"Are you ββ! chief?" a god of war, Wu Wei, was shocked, "It's impossible, she's already secretly going to the holy place in the depths of the main hall, and only Eli is following her...... No, no, Eli can't be your man!"
"We'll soon find out what the outcome will be. β
The white-robed man was silent for a moment, then took off his hood to reveal the face of a handsome human youth.
Palasalens.
He closed his eyes softly, as if in a sacred ceremony, and said these words quietlyβand at the same time, announced the beginning of a great war that could turn the situation upside down on the continent.
The next moment, the terrifying momentum of the eight soaring heavens erupted in this hall.
At the same time, the battle is sacred.
The multicolored dazzling stones shone brightly, and an unusually powerful magical power enveloped the altar in front of them. On top of the altar platform, the crimson crystal that existed as proof that the Ironstone Tribe was still protected by the god of war gave the entire space a thick and strange color.
There was a man standing in front of the crystal.
At present, the oldest qualified God of War Warrior, the only God of War Warrior who did not participate in the Battle of Falkenridge Royal Capital and retained all his strength, and also the only human God of War Warrior in the tribe - Eli.
"Eli, I trust you so much, you ......"
Angelina was standing aside in shock, because just as she was about to pray to the god of war, Eli suddenly shot and injured her!
"Well, Chief Chief. I appreciate your care over the years, but unfortunately, I'm from the Void Tribe. β
The calm tone seemed to have done such a betrayal, but there was no hesitation in his heart.
The three major orc tribes in the Western Continent that are tolerated by humans are the Blood Food Tribe of the Bear Orcs, the Empty Netherworld Tribe of the Leopard Orcs, and the Iron and Stone Tribe of the Lion Orcs.
These three tribes have been in a three-legged position for decades, and although the Blood Food Tribe is the strongest, they can't help the other two.
But since when did things change completely?
"I am the highest-ranking spy of the Void Tribe, and I originally intended to wait for an opportunity to force you to obey us. A month ago, though, we had decided to surrender to the Bloodfood Tribe. Lord Brudrin has given me the opportunity to sabotage your plans so that my tribe can be preserved. β
"You...... That guy in Brooklyn is already that strong?"
Angelina was shocked in her heart, you must know that although the comprehensive strength of the Void Tribe is the weakest among the three tribes, it is definitely not something that the Blood Food Tribe can easily swallow, unless......
The Bloodfood Tribe has received even more powerful help!
"I don't know much about that, but it's a decision made by our chiefs and priests together. β
Eli looked at his old boss who had followed him for many years lightly and shook his head, "The Ironstone Tribe is the only one of the three major tribes that has the protection of the God of War, which is why Brudrin is afraid of you. I can't let the power of the god of war be summoned, or ...... My home will be destroyed by Brooklyn. β
"That's right. β
After a moment's hesitation, the last trace of confusion in Angelina's eyes disappeared, she stepped forward and said firmly to Eli, "Although it is not clear what means Brudrin used to subdue the Empty Underworld Tribe, our Ironstone Tribe will never surrender. β
"Eli, I understand your choice. However, you have your home to protect, and I have my home to protect. So, I'll defeat you as fast as I can, and then summon the power of the god of war!"
"Hah, it seems that we are very determined to each other. β
As if a little surprised, Eli took a deep breath and smiled at Angelina.
"My father taught me that strength is not the most important thing in battle. If you don't have a strong enough will, then the seemingly strong side will also lose to the seemingly weak side. So since I started learning to fight, I've been paying great attention to honing my willpower, and I thought that the only people in this world who could surpass me in terms of willpower were the dragons and those old monsters in the Holy See......"
"I didn't expect to meet someone with a strong will who I didn't expect today. β
"Don't say anything superfluous," Angelina's voice was not loud, but firm. "I can feel that we are not much stronger. According to you, next, it's time to see who has the stronger will!"
"That's exactly what I was looking forward to!"
Eli raised his head suddenly, and the resolute look in his eyes flashed: "Angelina, the chief of the Ironstone Tribe...... In the name of the number one killer of the Void Tribe, I challenge you to life and death!"
