"Ai Bowen, the commander of the Thousand Iron City. Hello, are you all from the God of War Temple?" the young chief stretched out his hand to shake Sun Xiaofei and introduced himself.

"No, I'm the only one in the Temple of War. They were all friends who came with me. Sun Xiaofei shook his head and said.

When Ai Bowen heard Sun Xiaofei's answer, his eyes flickered, and then he said, "You still don't know what is happening here, so let me tell you." ”

Hearing this, Sun Xiaofei, Lucia and the others glanced at each other and said with a smile: "Thank you Ai Bowen." That's exactly what we need to know about the battlefield here. ”

Ai Bowen turned his head and said to the soldiers behind him, "You guys go over there first, I'll go over in a while." The two soldiers went away and went on patrol elsewhere.

After Ai Bowen and the two soldiers left, he groaned, looked at Sun Xiaofei and the others and said, "Do you know?

Sun Xiaofei's heart moved, and he asked with a smile, "I don't know." Can you tell us about this?"

"The city here is famous for its impregnable defenses, and the strongest men are stationed here. There are these mages who practice gold magic and earth magic. Qiantiecheng can be as stable as Mount Tai and firmly guard this piece of land. ”

"There are actually gold and earth magisters here?" Sun Xiaofei and the others said with a look of surprise when they heard this. The number of mages is scarce, especially the gold magisters, and there is no doubt about the role of a gold magus in the battlefield. The Raptors Empire actually arranged these people here to defend it, no wonder the city can stand for so many years and still exist.

Ai Bowen nodded and said, "This is an important checkpoint in the Empire, as long as the enemy can capture this city, he can drive straight to the heart of the Empire. Therefore, the importance of this city can be imagined, even on the frontline battlefield, it is not as great as the impact we have experienced here. Now, the armies of the Orcs and the Night Empire are attacking the city in a split between night and day, with the aim of capturing the city. ”

Sun Xiaofei nodded slightly and asked, "I think the quality of the soldiers here is very good, and they should all belong to the elite army of the empire." Defending the city shouldn't be a problem. ”

"Yes, none of the soldiers in this city are ordinary soldiers, we are all the most elite soldiers of the Empire. However, because the scope of this war was too large, most of the troops were transferred to defend everywhere, and it was the strong men who lived in the city who could really lead the soldiers to defend the city. Had it not been for them killing the invading enemy and saving the city. Ai Bowen showed a look of reverence, for those who decide the victory or defeat of a battle in a single move, he admired the realm of the strong.

"Ai Bowen, I heard that there is a rule between the imperial family that as long as the male members of the imperial family are required to go to the battlefield or the border to hone for a year, do you also know?" Sun Xiaofei could see that there was a persistent fanaticism in Ai Bowen's eyes, and this kind of look reminded Sun Xiaofei of a person, so he subconsciously asked this sentence.

Ai Bowen's face changed slightly, and then he looked at Sun Xiaofei with complicated eyes, and said, "You also know about this? I am indeed a member of the royal family, but I am not a descendant prince, but a side line." Therefore, a member of the royal family like me can only become a county king or an officer. ”

"Oh, what about those royal families, where are they?" Sun Xiaofei thought for a moment and asked.

"In the Raptors Empire, all princes of the lineage have to go to the battlefield to accumulate military merits, if they are lucky enough not to die, with the level of accumulated military merits, they will be appreciated by the emperor and ascend to a high position, becoming a prince or the heir to the throne. For this reason, the princes of the lineage fought each other on the battlefield, not only against the enemy, but also against their own siblings, and many of them shed blood and died. Ai Bowen smiled bitterly and said with some self-deprecation.

When Sun Xiaofei and others heard Ai Bowen's words, they realized that there was such a hidden story. From this point of view, the fierce competition between the princes is far beyond their understanding. For the sake of a battle for the throne, I am afraid that the battlefield is also complicated, and the undercurrent is surging.

Sun Xiaofei is a member of the God of War Temple, and those princes will definitely actively win over at that time, so he has to find a way to deal with it.

Sun Xiaofei was thinking about it when he suddenly heard an alarm, which was issued from the watchtower on a high place, and it was obvious that some soldiers had discovered the enemy's traces.

"You've come just in time, and there's probably going to be a battle in the evening," Abwen said. Go back and get ready. ”

Sun Xiaofei and the others walked to the city wall and looked down, and with his eyesight, he could see the scene in the distance clearly. In the low grass in the distance, there were a few black dots moving slightly, wearing rough animal skin sewn clothes and battle armor, the shape was somewhat human, but the head of a fox wolf was covered with long hair, looking a bit like some kind of monster, these were the spies of the beast clan. Come here to inspect the situation outside the city and the terrain, and prepare for the attack of the large army behind.

Alberwin walked up to one of the archers, took the latter's bow and arrow, and aimed his bow at the orc scout in the far grass below.

"Whew!" the bow and arrow broke through the air, and Ai Bowen's eyesight and accuracy were very powerful, and he shot one of the orc spies at once, and fell to the ground with blood splattered on the spot.

"Ah......h

Sun Xiaofei asked Ai Bowen with some curiosity, "What kind of beast clan are those?"

Ai Bowen returned the bow and arrow to the archer, and replied: "That's the fox wolf clan, the descendant of the combination of the wolf clan and the fox clan, belonging to a group of beasts with weak combat effectiveness, usually in the battle to detect, communicate and so on. ”

"Ai Bowen, I still want to know more about the orcs, you have been here for so long, tell me about it. Sun Xiaofei pondered for a while, and then asked.

"Okay!" Ai Bowen did not refuse Sun Xiaofei's request, nodded in agreement, and then began to tell Sun Xiaofei and the others about the affairs of the beast clan.

The beast clan is divided into the four royal families and the five royal families, as well as many various types of beast clans. The four royal families are headed by Beamon, lion, tiger, and bear, and the five royal families are mainly five animals: oxen, eagles, snakes, wolves, and rats.

The four royal clans are the eighth-order peak demonic beasts of the beast clan, and they themselves have a trace of the bloodline of the holy beast, if they can break through smoothly, they can be promoted to the existence of the holy beast. It is equivalent to a human saint-level powerhouse.

Each of the five royal clans is extremely powerful, with its own territory and a large number of branches. The Ox Clan is known for their strong strength, the Eagle Clan is the overlord of the air, the Snake Clan is vicious and vicious and terrifying, the Wolf Clan is feared by its unity and ferocity, and the Rat Clan is known for its advantage in group attacks and tenacious vitality.

Within the beast clan, there is a clear hierarchy, and only those beasts who have opened their minds and reached the king level can command the large and small demonic beasts in a region. Before the demonic beasts have no spiritual intelligence, even the demonic beasts that have reached the eighth order are all classified into ordinary beasts, and ordinary beasts are treated the same as demonic beasts.

A large number of orcs and various demonic beasts have lived in the area of the Dread Mountains for generations, and every year due to the shortage of food and territory resources, there are fights and riots. As a result, a battle breaks out between humans and orcs every year at a certain time, and orcs organize a large number of races to attack human cities and loot all kinds of needed resources, commonly known as beast tides.

The beast tide is not the biggest threat to humans, as long as it is dealt with properly and the needs of the beast race for food and other things are met, under normal circumstances, it can be spent in a short time. The real danger to humanity is the war of ethnic invasion. When the number of orcs proliferates so much that they can't be satisfied with the annual raids, the orcs start a full-scale invasion war against humans.

The orcs use war to reduce the number of the tribe on the one hand, and the tragic war will eliminate a large number of old and weak people, leaving the young, strong and aggressive beast strong. to adapt to the brutal living environment here in the Dreaded Mountains.

On the other hand, a large amount of resources are obtained from the human city in order to meet the needs of the beasts. At the same time, it is of great significance to sharpen the peak group of the beast clan in this war, in the past history, there have been many beast clans that have transformed and evolved in battles and become king-level or royal-level beasts, and even the beasts have given birth to a lot of holy beasts in the war.

The war between humans and beasts has been going on for thousands of years, and I don't know how many battles have been fought large and small. They have become accustomed to this way of getting along, and have used this kind of war as a way to hone the future generations of their race. Both sides will send their outstanding elites to the battlefield after the start of the war, seeking opportunities for breakthroughs in the battle.

Sun Xiaofei and the others learned about the beast clan from Ai Bowen, and then left and returned to their residence. Someone saw Sun Xiaofei and the others coming back, and immediately told him that the God of War Temple had sent someone to inform him that he would gather at the City Lord's Mansion in the evening, and the elders had something to announce. Sun Xiaofei nodded and separated from Lucia and the others, and ordered them to go to rest first and prepare for battle, something might happen at night.

After Sun Xiaofei waited for them to leave, he thought about what Ai Bowen had told him, and he had a great curiosity about the beast race, the race with the longest existence in the continent. Sun Xiaofei closed his eyes at will to rest, and when the time of the evening came, he naturally woke up, moved his body, looked at the direction of the City Lord's Mansion and chuckled, his body moved, and then quickly flew towards the City Lord's Mansion.

The defense force of Thousand Iron City at night is obviously stricter than during the day, and it is predicted that the beast clan will attack the city, and Thousand Iron City has to strengthen the defensive force. At night, the vision of humans is greatly affected, but the orcs do not have this obstacle, and humans are at a disadvantage when fighting at night. However, for a strong man like Sun Xiaofei, this situation is the same result in fighting day and night, and it will not affect his strength at all.

Sun Xiaofei's body swept away, and under the light of the night, he entered a large hall in the City Lord's Mansion.
