Volume III Adriel 156: The True Beast Lied
After the Beastmaster who was recognized by the Eternal Mark Tree lost contact with the human world, many beasts ran out of the dark forest in an attempt to establish their own gateway in the Xuancai Mountains.
Rui Beast is one of them.
Rui Beast is a very weak immortal beast, he inherited the spiritual power of his elders, he can get the current person, however, he does not have the strength to match the person, and even the miracle of "blessing" of the racial specialty, he is not sure that he can successfully perform it every time.
An immortal beast like him would not have had the courage to leave the protection of the Eternal Tree, but at that time, he walked farther and farther on a whim, and when he found that he had gone deep into the mountains, he could no longer find his way back.
The beast was forced to embark on a long journey.
One day, he learns from the gossip of the plant-monsters on the roadside that the "Shadow Beastmaster" of the Dark Forest has returned to his faithful territory.
Almost all the dryads were celebrating the event, and the Beasts had blended in among the monsters, wanting to meet their Beastmaster.
As an immortal beast, he believed that they would have some common language, and at least, this meeting might allow him to find a temporary resting place where he would not have to continue to wander in the Xuancai Mountains.
But in the end, his wishful thinking did not succeed.
The dryads are all talking about how their beastmaster, known as the "Flower Emperor", has brought back a human woman from the human world.
That woman was so highly regarded by the Flower Emperor that he had no intention of dealing with other matters, and naturally he did not have the free time to meet another fairy beast.
The Rui Beast, who was puzzled by the immortal beast "compatriots" caring about the behavior of humans, couldn't calm down for a while, so he directly ignored the dissuasion of the dryads and went straight to the past.
He followed the thread of hearsay and reached the valley where the dragon lived.
The scorching conditions made it impossible for him to stay in this place for a long time, and just when he couldn't find any trace of the Flower Emperor, and had the idea of "leaving quickly", he ran into the woman who was brought into the mountains by the Flower Emperor-
and witnessed her crusading against the dragon without the help of other orcs.
Her entire body was covered in ice chips, which melted under the heat around her, and soon condensed again under the influence of another force...... The beast could see that this human was about to die.
Her fate has come to an end, and death has come to meet her.
But then, Rui Beast once again witnessed a "miracle".
As the woman stabbed the sword in her hand into one of the dragon's eyes, her whole body was ignited by the dragon's spiritual power, but the ice was melting, and her vitality was slowly returning.
What happened?
He saw the dragon's sword-pierced eye instantly enveloped in dazzling light, and then slowly transformed into a ring, falling towards the ground.
A small flower with pure white petals and pale blue stamens emerged from a crack in the earth, caught the ring, and then bloomed in place, waiting for the humans to pick it up after completing the feat of "slaying the dragon".
The Shadow Beastmaster of the Dark Forest left that human here to fight the dragon to the death? The beast's eyes widened, he could only figure out the first half of what he had witnessed, but he couldn't understand how it ended.
He watched the defeated dragon crawl back into the valley, and wanted to retreat from the place before the human noticed him, but the other party had already noticed his prying eyes, and flew the sword in his hand, plunging it into the rocky ground in front of him.
"I have no ill will!" The fairy beast that thought it had seen something it shouldn't have seen trembled.
He knew the dragon's strength, and knew he was no match for the human.
But he only asked him for the way out of the valley, and after receiving a simple answer, he simply walked past him, drew his sword stuck in the ground, and had no intention of lingering or fighting again.
"Hey...... the fairy beast called out to the woman in fear, "were you sent here by the Flower Emperor?" ā
"Do you know what He wants to do?"
"Where did he go?"
The beast asked several questions in a row, and in the end, he felt that his actions were a little abrupt, and he couldn't help but blush.
The human shook his head, but slowed down the pace of leaving, slowly moved his steps to the side of the beast, and with the long sword as a support, his body leaned forward slightly:
"The 'Flower Emperor' in your mouth, he ...... is my enemy. ā
"Huh?"
Humans tell the beasts that a war is breaking out in the world outside the mountains, and neither humans nor orcs will be caught up in it.
Her enemies have summoned the Shadow Beastmaster from the Dark Forest, hoping that he will help them win the war.
And she was supposed to die in that war, but she was "saved" by the Flower Emperor, and the fairy beast used her own strength to suppress the curse she carried, and forcibly captured her into the Xuancai Mountain Range, which was far away from the flames of war.
"You think the Kao is trying to save you? Even if He is a helper invited by your enemies? The beast understood what she was saying.
"What curse do you have? Actually want a beastmaster to suppress it with his strength, instead of directly erasing it? As an immortal beast, Rui Beast is very aware of the strength of his "compatriots", in his opinion, the beast clan promoted to immortal beast is almost omnipotent, and the existence that can make them feel troubled in the world is probably the starry sky above their heads.
Only "different time and space" can deal with immortal beasts...... As it should be.
The human looked at Him strangely and said:
In their realm, there is a place called "Ice Hell", which houses an ice crystal beast, and all the life forms thrown into it cannot avoid the fate of eventually turning into ice sculptures.
So that's the case, Rui Beast understood it as soon as he heard it, and immediately felt relieved.
The one who left the curse was "hideous".
"That's a nasty guy." The fairy beasts born in the dark forest commented on their missing beast king, "He was born in response to the needs of heaven and earth, but because of his actions, he was disgusted by heaven and earth. ā
"He didn't bother with it at all, but used it to make the world more rampant and reinvent the world as he imagined."
"All the lies he tells can be conjured into reality." When the beast mentioned this beastmaster, there was a hint of envy in his tone, "And the price that needs to be borne behind these abilities beyond common sense is just that they will be disgusted by the world." ā
The fairy beast survives in this world alone, and it can live well, and the rui beast, who is used to wandering days, thinks angrily.
If he could, he would like to have the same power as the "hideous" and not some useless "blessing."
"I didn't expect the source of the curse you were carrying to be Him." "He has been lost for many years, and the throne under the Tree of Eternal Scars in the Dark Forest is still reserved for him, and he shows no sign of wanting to return. ā
"Everyone in the forest is rumoring that he is dead."
"Come to think of it, only the Beastmaster can deal with the Beastmaster." Rui Beast sighed, and looked at the human with a little more pity, "However, it seems that the Flower Emperor is superior, he has found a way to lift the curse of the 'Hide' and brought you to the mountains." ā
"He really wants to save you, human, and you should thank Him."
Using his past experience, the Beast showed the way out of the mountains for humans.
He wished that humanity, who had been freed from the curse and "reborn," would live a good life without being bound by outside wars and her own responsibilities.
But it didn't take long for him to find out the truth from the dryads.
It turned out that neither the Flower Emperor, nor the dragon nor its eyes had the ability to break the influence of the "hideous".
What can counter a lie is sometimes not the truth, but another lie.
The "beast of truth" lied.
"Is this a joke?" The beast, who still hadn't seen the Flower Emperor, was stunned to say his first thought when he heard about it, facing the dryads who were already familiar with him.
"Kao-sama can't lie, and once he denies the truth, the concept of maintaining his existence will be destroyed, and he will become very weak and easily killed by other orcs or humans." The dryads said so.
"Then he'sā" The Beast suddenly figured out why he had never been able to see the Shadow Beastmaster of the Dark Forest, because he had paid the price for his actions and had become extremely weak......
"Will He Die?" The Beast couldn't help but worry about the future of the Dark Forest.
"The Flower Emperor borrowed the dragon's eyes to reduce the impact of the lie on himself." The dryad replied, "In this case, it is not that he forcibly changed reality with his own powers, but that he has created a 'misunderstanding' with his own hands, and that deceiving the eyes and blood of the dragons of the world can ease the curse of ice and snow and suppress the power of the false beasts." ā
"However, once a creature debunks this lie, the human beings favored by the Kao-sama will inevitably die, and the Ka-dame will also suffer the backlash of his own actions."
"What can be done to expose His lies?" Rui Beast couldn't help but ask, and then quickly waved his hand to explain his offense, "I just thought that if we could know what we couldn't do, we could avoid those actions in time." ā
"Kao-sama has set up an opportunity." The dryads answer almost every question, and the beasts love that.
"As long as that human remains in the Dark Forest forever, blessed by Him and the Tree of Eternals, she will not die." From the Dryads' words, the Beast learned the answer.
"Does that human know about this?" Although he didn't know much about the reason why the flower emperor was obsessed with a human, he told the human the path out of the mountain! Didn't this just step on the "thunder point" of the Flower Emperor and go against His will?
He wasn't the Beastmaster's match...... Rui Beast immediately felt a little scared.
Later, he listened to the dryads comfort him and say that humans have long been given the right to choose by the Flower Emperor, and she can make the most reasonable choice for her own life and the protection of the Beastmaster.
"In the outside world, she's dead." The dryads said.
"She's a smart person who should be able to think of what to decide."
ā¦ā¦
yes, I should be able to think of it.
She struggled for so long, and in the end, her fate passed through the protection of the Beastmaster and caught up with her.
The beast sighed softly as it looked at the strange human who was kneeling on the ground with the dying man in front of him, his body trembling.
"The lie of the true beast has been revealed, and the humanity he favors is about to be killed by the curse left by his adversary...... In the outside world, the humans who are eyeing the Flower Emperor also get a chance to defeat him. ā
Hearing this, Pietro raised his head in a daze, and saw the serious expression of the beast.
"Who is it?" The human voice trembled, and he asked what he thought was a crucial question.
In his opinion, General Ilan and the beast king "Flower Emperor" have stepped into the trap set by the culprit to fall into today's situation.
"Looks like you're not stupid." A sense of relief appeared on the beast's face, "So, who else do you think?" ā
Humans and Orcs cooperate to fight against another team of Humans and Orcs...... That war was so many years ago, and it is so now.
