Chapter 670: Spiritual Tsunami

The Sassan Empire's eastern defenses were heavily defended against a large number of orc invaders. Hundreds of centaurs were able to escape from the calf camp and break through the ranks of the Duoduo soldiers, all of whom were the best of the centaur warriors.

As the high-priced knights expected, they were led by the legendary Centaur to pass through the southern section of the Eastern Frontier Line, and even uprooted a few sentry camps along the way, seized a small amount of supplies, and plunged headlong into the Wharton Prairie.

Of course, they were not all unharmed, and with the perseverance of the three major knights and the seven golden knights in pursuit, the centaurs were reduced by half, and only about 300 of them escaped into the prairie.

In the competition of life and death, the weak are eliminated most ruthlessly, and the survivors are richly rewarded and become stronger. Of these more than 300 centaurs, the ferocious monsters probably account for the vast majority.

A blue-purple canopy shrouded the vast Wharton prairie, and the yellow blades of grass were as tall as an adult's calf, and there was no end in sight.

Victor withdrew his gaze from the distance, turned his head sideways to see Caligula lying in the grass nest, and said angrily and amusefully, "Aka, we should go." ”

Caligula bounced up from the haystack, and with a round steppe gopher in his hand, he brought it to Victor like a treasure, blinked his eyes, and said happily: "Master, you see...... Good fat, good fat. ”

The savannah is a paradise for herbivores, inhabited by tens of millions of red-haired bison, as well as herds of wild horses, steppe impala and other large and medium-sized herbivores, and even the prairie hare and steppe gophers are twice as large as the hares and gophers of Gombis. Even in the cold winter months, the hay provides plenty of food for the animals, and the fat gophers are easy to catch, and of course the goblins and gnolls roam the grasslands.

More than 300 ferocious centaurs with keen instincts are running wild in the savannah, and the Knights of War Beasts trying to find them is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. However, if the major knights use special methods, such as using falcons and alienated war beasts that are good at tracking scents, they can still search for traces of centaurs, or quietly activate some talented wizards, the effect will be better.

At the beginning, the gold-level gnoll fangs roamed the Neville Mountains, and it was not that the wizards raised by the Rex family secretly locked their range of activity.

Centaurs vary in strength, with the common ferocious centaurs dragging down the mighty Centaur Great Khan, and their maneuvering speed depends on the weakest of the group. It's certainly easier to hunt down a group of centaurs than it is to hunt down a rampant gnoll.

The problem is that the environment of the prairie has brought the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides closer, the knights' home battles have become away battles, and the centaurs have changed from away to home battles, they have no shortage of prey, what they lack is weapons, but they can get a certain degree of material replenishment from the hands of goblins, and can even attack the grassland herdsmen and seize weapons and equipment. The risk of the Knights slaughtering the Centaurs has skyrocketed.

Roland is bold, she dared to go deep into the territory of the Rand Empire before and hunt down the legendary knight Neowest. She's now eyeing the Legendary Centaur again. Gombis has lost two silver-tier Earth Knights, and as the youngest Golden Female Knight in the human realm, Princess Auguste has amazing potential. Whether it was for the sake of the overall situation of the Southern Empire or for personal friendships, Victor was very worried about her safety.

Victor had never seen the legendary Centaurs, and with only the little information he had gathered, it was almost impossible to track down his opponent across the vast savannah. But he knew Roland well, and his archenemy's tracking instincts vaguely showed that Princess August was in the far west, but the other three high-ranking female knights were to the south.

In that direction is the Holy Helm City of the Prairie.

Roland and Margaret Wellington separated?

Victor weighed the pros and cons and decided to go to Helmet City to find out the news first. If necessary, Nelson and Caligula could be left in the City of the Holy Helm, and he pursued Roland alone, believing that he would soon find her.

Without the drag of the Horned Wolf mount, Victor and the six retinues quickly arrived at the Holy Helm City.

Outside the city, there are tents of grassland herders, as well as countless cattle, sheep and horses. The twelve steppe holy cities were usually trade nodes connecting the Sassan Empire and the Kingdom of Duoduo, and in the season of water, they became a place where steppe herders concentrated for the winter. Cattle and sheep were not allowed to graze in the pastures within a radius of 500 miles in the holy city, and in the autumn, the herdsmen of all tribes had to send people to the pastures of the holy city to harvest hay for winter feeding.

This year's rainy and snowy season has not yet arrived, and large caravans transported the grain and wheat stalks from Sasang, the wine and spices of Gombis, the weapons and bows of Duoduo, the iron tools of Neville, and the cloth and silk of Seuss to the holy city of the steppe, and traded animal skins, animal meat, cattle, sheep and horses with the herdsmen.

The two-month big bazaar in the grassland holy city is also the courtship season for herdsmen and women, and the outside of the holy helmet city is overcrowded and noisy. Before it was dark, the herdsmen had already set up a bonfire, and the young shepherd girls put on new dresses and jewelry, and sang and danced around the bonfire. Herdsmen and caravan men from other tribes watched and cheered outside, and the shepherdess would drop a small handmade carpet in front of someone to represent her courtship. As long as the person picks up the colored carpet, he can drag the shepherdess into the tent and spend a wonderful night together. The next day, both sides went their separate ways, and if the man was reluctant to have a delicate lover, he either gave a rich gift to the patriarch and took the shepherdessman away, or he stayed and became her husband.

The herdsmen's tents surround the Holy Helmet City, stretching for more than ten miles, and the wine and meat in the camp are fragrant, singing and dancing, and there is no sense of urgency for monsters to attack.

If you think about it, before a few hundred centaurs failed to form an orc tribal force, they could be regarded as hundreds of ferocious beasts on the grassland, and there was really no need to make a fuss. Even if they want to take root in the savannah and reproduce, they need to have females. Current information indicates that no female centaurs have been found on the Maverick Village Camp battlefield.

It stands to reason that the Centaur Great Khan should lead more than 300 of his men to the east of the steppe, reach the Boulder Mountains, and then sneak into the northern wilderness along the forest belt at the foot of the mountain to join the centaurs in the east of the Sidon Khanate.

But why did Roland move to the west of the prairie? The westernmost edge of the prairie is the Wraith Forest, and the Wraith Forest is the frontier of the Everfree Forest.

Could it be that the Centaur Great Khan is rushing to the Endless Forest?

Victor was full of questions, and hurried into the Holy City to find Margaret and her sisters. But along the way, the crowd was dense, and they bumped into several groups of drunken herdsmen.

Drunken provocations are trivial matters, and alchemy soldiers can throw them to the side of the road with a single pull. It's the enthusiastic prairie girl who gives people a headache.

Caligula is tall and unusual in stature, and he attracts the most attention when he walks in the crowd. Nelson and the Alchemy Militia are muscular and powerful, especially in line with the aesthetics of the steppe shepherds. Following these guys, the open and bold shepherdesss naturally saw Victor in the middle.

Although Victor wears a hood and a visor, his temperament is like a bright moonlight, and his perfect body proportions are equally charming, and the visor on his face conceals his handsome and extraordinary appearance, but adds a touch of mystery and stimulates women's curiosity.

Ordinary people would be ashamed of themselves in front of Victor and would not dare to look up at him. The lonely mind is susceptible to shock, while the ocean of the mind is completely different. Courtship is as simple as a simple matter, a girl may be shy and nervous, and a group of girls' feelings are magnified many times, making them more courageous and enthusiastic.

Originally, it was the courtship season of the steppe people, and the young herdsman girls laughed and played around Victor and others, blocking the road.

The alchemy soldiers are unaware, and they unceremoniously throw the shepherdesss who tries to get close to their master into the crowd.

This time it stabbed the hornet's nest.

The herdsmen and hunters rushed over from all directions, pulled the girl they liked behind them, formed a solid human wall, separated the hot gaze of the shepherd girl, and then scolded and provoked Victor and others, but no one dared to really come out.

The giant didn't look like anything to mess with.

Victor was secretly annoyed, but helpless. The high-level knight can be mentally outgoing, and the crowd will automatically separate without speaking, but he doesn't have the ability. In essence, the high-level knights are close to the elemental sea, master the root law, and their spiritual power is varied, and the bloodline of the sun elves is an extreme in the evolution of the laws of the world, although the force is strong, the spiritual temperament is solidified.

Although it is not known what the marriage relationship of the elves is, Victor is highly suspicious that among the higher moon elves, who have more women than men, the sun elves are the only ones and have a group of mates. It's no wonder he's particularly popular with the opposite sex.

"You four don't do it. ”

Victor stopped the four alchemy soldiers from drawing their weapons, and lightly ordered, "Aka, scare them." ”

"Ah...... Not...... Ahh

Caligula bared his teeth and claws in a threatening gesture. The herdsman hunter was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Nelson stepped forward, his steel cone-like eyes sweeping over the spot, and laughter stopped. A dull, muffled voice spat out of his throat:

"Give it all to me, get out!"

When the herdsman hunters came into contact with Nelson's murderous eyes, their faces turned pale and they retreated, and the surroundings gradually became silent, and an atmosphere of slaughter and awe brewed and spread.

Passing through the separated crowd, Victor chuckled and said to Nelson, "It's fierce...... It's a bit of a touch of the heart. ”

Confused, Nelson hesitated and muttered, "Is this the touch of the heart? It's different from what I thought...... I used to be fierce too. During the fight, many of my opponents trembled when they saw me. ”

Victor smiled, "That can't scare so many people, do you remember Little Bill in Pinghu Town?"

"Pig Slayer Bill?" Nelson grinned, "I remember him, he had a great reputation among the inferior...... Unexpectedly, adults have also heard of him. ”

Victor nodded and said, "Little Bill, he is not young, he is very small, he looks quiet, and he doesn't have much strength. Before coming to the Randall family, he specialized in cooking wild boars for butchers, and is said to have 23 years of pig killing skills. Caligula learned from him how to kill pigs in the first place. He walked in the pig farm, and all the pigs did not dare to move or bark, and he obediently came out to die by his ears. ”

"More than 800 pounds of pigs, Bill stabbed down, and died instantly. Caligula has the same knife technique, and there is no pig that does not bark. This is a skill that Aka can't learn. Do you know why?"

Nelson scratched his head vigorously and said with a little embarrassment, "I don't know...... Actually, I've learned how Bill kills pigs, but it's useless. Whether it is a big pig or a small pig, when death is imminent, they all jump vigorously. ”

Victor said: "Bill's knife killed him even the pig's will to live. Isn't that a touch of the heart?"

Nelson's eyes lit up and he muttered, "It turns out that the will to kill the opponent is the touch of the heart?"

Victor thought for a moment and said, "I think the scope of the touch of the heart is extremely wide, and the manifestations are also diverse. Bill Killing Pigs is a touch of the heart, but not suitable for combat. And we only focus on the improvement of Psychic Touch's combat effectiveness, ignoring its potential in other aspects. ”

"You just looked murderous, scared the people in the front row, but the people in the back couldn't see it, but the fear had spread and grew rapidly on the psychic level of the crowd. People are scary, scared to death, this is what it refers to. This reminds me of the Elder Bear's War Roar, which is mediocre in its defeat effect, but greatly increases the will to fight of ordinary Bears. It's a spiritual contagion, and I'm going to call it a 'spiritual tsunami.'" ”

"My lord, 'Tsunami'...... What is it?"

"Uh...... The water is passed through layers and converges into an unimaginably large force. Victor's mouth slipped for a moment, and he reprimanded in annoyance: "Don't care about the details, you have to pay attention to the principle!"

"Oh. Nelson nodded thoughtfully.

Victor paused, and explained in a language that Nelson could understand, "As the military commander of the Randall family, it is important for you to hone your martial arts skills and improve your personal martial arts, but don't ignore the greater power - inspiring the courage of the Legion and blessing yourself with the Legion's spiritual will. This will take you to a whole new level. ”

"The Great Khan of the Centaurs, its strength has grown by leaps and bounds. When dealing with Archduke Frederick, it vomited blood and was not lightly wounded. But when she arrived at the Maverick Village camp, Oroxia's power froze the ground, and the hearty battle prompted her to take the most crucial step and reach the legendary level. However, the centaur was unharmed. Although the Earth Armor is capable of transferring damage to centaurs, it is not fully elementalized, and if it accumulates too much damage, it will still be killed. The fact that the Great Khan of Centaurs was able to withstand Orocia's onslaught shows that its Earth Armor is more semi-elementalized than Orokxia's. ”

"There are not many intelligent species that can ascend to the sky in one step and gain great power in a short period of time. I can only think that the inner potential of the Centaur Great Khan has been quickly discovered. The turning point was that it decided to take on the fate of the race, regardless of life or death! It gathered more and more centaur warriors, and the expectation and trust of its subordinates prompted it to grow stronger, stronger, and smarter. In times of crisis, the centaur's psychic powers joined together to form a 'tsunami' that pushed the centaur to the top. ”

Victor stopped and said solemnly: "The human bloodline law is extremely inclusive, and the war roar talent of the Elder Bear Monster can also be simulated by humans. And there are many directions in the Mind Touch, you can transfer your Mind Power to the direction of the Legion, and you may be able to master a super powerful Mind Talent in the future!"

Nelson's eyes lit up and he asked, "My lord, what should we do then?" Grab a bear monster elder to study?"

Victor smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, Elder Bear Monster will not teach the mysteries of talent, we can start with the barbarians." The Barbarian's Warchanter is able to mobilize mystical powers, with effects ranging from defeat, strengthening, and group boosting. ”

Nelson scratched his head again, "This barbarian...... Would you like to teach me?"

Victor glanced back at the stupid Caligula and whispered, "Do you think that Sophia's female barbarian follower has a special meaning for Aka?"

Nelson paused, stifled a smile, and nodded, "Like, it's a little interesting." ”

Caligula heard, but his attention was on the piles of roast meat over the campfire, unaware that his master and Nelson were plotting to sell him for a good price.

This kind of thing is just a joke, and how to exchange the mystery of war chant from the barbarians has to be considered in the long run. Victor asked, "You intuitively told me, how about the Legion's proposal to the Touch?"

Nelson frowned and pondered for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "My lord, you said that the centaur Great Khan was pushed to the top by the spiritual tsunami, so will it fall to its death?"

Victor chuckled in his heart, and couldn't help but think of Ryan, the ancestor of Gombis, if it wasn't for the fact that he had taken on too many responsibilities and had a heavy burden on his heart, how could Ryan make a mistake in the three-sword duel with Neowest?

If you want to control the power of the group's psychic ocean, your own psyche must first be strong enough.

“...... This matter will be put aside for a moment. Victor looked up and saw Nelson's big face full of anticipation, and he immediately became alert.

The idea of the roar of war grew like weeds in Nelson's mind.

He's not focused enough right now!

Shortcuts are always easy to get lost...... Victor secretly complains that it was he who put the devil in Nelson's heart. Now, he must find a way to make amends, but the price will still be paid by Nelson.

"We have to deal with the best of the centaurs first. Victor was silent for a moment, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "My opponent is a legendary centaur, I didn't want to take you with me, but since you came with me, you should be ready to die in battle." I will ask you to assist the Lord with all your might, at least to cut off its minions...... Maybe you'll have to touch a legendary monster...... I'll ask you one last time, do you want to follow me?"

Nelson's blood boiled all over his body, and all the distracting thoughts just now vanished, and he roared in a low voice: "Master, I have nothing to fear!

"Good!" Victor patted Nelson's shoulder armor and said with burning eyes, "Let the bard once again spread the fame of the bear of the Northland!"

Caligula stepped forward, thumped his chest, and said with a smile: "Aka has strength, and the brave Aka helps Nelson fight monsters." ”

Nelson blushed and shouted, "Don't worry about it...... Uh, you can help scare the centaurs on the side, don't be like you just did, you have to really scare!"

Speaking of this, all three laughed, and Aka was a giggle.

Walking into the gate of the Holy Helmet City, the high-ranking knights and priests in the city happened to greet them, including the three high-ranking female knights of Gombis, as well as the black-haired, blue-eyed, and amazingly beautiful Countess Andrea Wimbleton, but the first person was Deputy Head of Clark Testier.

When Victor saw him, his face suddenly sank, and he asked angrily, "Clark, why are you here?"
