0877 Waiting for an opportunity
,
In the capital of Iwakoku, there is chaos at the moment, and Bai Yuetian's return has brought ominous information.
The defeat on the front line, the fall or submission of many emperors, this is simply the news of destruction for Iwakuni.
The difference in national strength between the Iwa Kingdom and the Taiwu Kingdom was several times greater, and it was almost impossible to defeat them.
However, whether it was the news that Bai Yuetian brought back, or the news that Xiaozuo brought back from the front line, all proved the uneasiness in their hearts.
The Taiwu Kingdom has launched a counterattack, and in cooperation with several other alliance countries, it has launched a strong offensive, and a large number of emperors have been thrown into the battlefield.
If you talk about the rock country alone, the strength can almost look down on many small countries, even if it is the number of strong people, it is also the leader.
Moreover, Iwakuni's way of fighting is quite clever, and he only launches an attack on one country at a time.
Each time a victory is followed by an attack on another country, this ensures that the smaller neighboring states cannot form formal alliances.
After all, no one wants to take the initiative to offend a big country like Iwakuni, and at the same time, they will not fight desperately for an ally.
But beating the water dog is something that everyone is willing to contribute, and today's Iwakuni is equivalent to a water dog.
In the past few decades, Iwakuni has continued to expand outward, constantly extending its tentacles to other countries.
Each country is in danger of itself, but it is impossible to form a unified front, and each country has a glimmer of hope, hoping that after Iwakuni conquers the country next to it, it will satisfy itself and will not attack them again.
However, in the past few decades, the territory of the rock country has almost expanded fivefold, the strong have doubled, and the national strength has tripled, while the ** has grown indefinitely.
Of course, it could also be said that they were waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity that could completely destroy Iwakuni.
Now that the opportunity has come, judging from the information they got, Iwakuni inexplicably offended the prince of an empire, and then the strong people sent by that empire completely swept away the strong people of Iwakuni who were fighting on the front line.
For them, this is simply a pie falling from the sky, and what could be more exciting and laughable than this news.
At the same time, it also made their fear of the empire even stronger, just because they offended the prince of an empire, a huge and powerful country, and fell from the altar like this.
Everyone was inquiring about who had offended Iwakuni, and at the same time secretly ordered that all the nobles and officials should do their best to find out the exact identity of that person, and do everything possible to establish relations with him, and anyone who was disrespectful at all would be regarded as treason.
Taiwu Kingdom is the most lively, the entire Taiwu Kingdom has been excited, originally everyone was ready to die in the country, but hope came so suddenly, suddenly to the point that they couldn't believe it.
At the same time, mobilize the forces of the whole country to find the "Imperial Prince", and they got the most accurate information.
After all, Rain City is their city, and although it has fallen, there are still many small works, and many of them are hiding in the refugee caves.
No one knew that under the imperial palace of the capital of Iwakuni, there was a huge snake nest, which was filled with countless poisonous snakes, large and small, and a large number of snakes, forming a huge kingdom of poisonous snakes.
And in the center of the snake group, a giant snake intertwined with gold and black, entrenched on the stone pillar in the center, opened its eyes slightly, the pair of vertical pupils were like ghost lamps under the night charm, as long as the snakes swept by the pair of dark pupils, they all moved away in horror.
This giant snake is not just their king, but their god, the giant snake seems to sense something, slowly moving its huge body, and the dark space is trembling with the movement of the giant snake.
A man with a golden crown walks in fear in the dark, sometimes stumbling and holding on to the cave wall, and can touch the snake in his hand.
His face was full of fear, and although the snakes entrenched here had no intention of attacking him, the appearance of those snakes spitting out letters seemed to carry some kind of hostility, which made him feel chills all over.
As the king of the rock country, Wang Yan has not come down to the snake cave for ten years, and since he succeeded to the throne, he has only come down once with his father the day before he succeeds to the throne.
If it weren't for the necessity, he would never have taken the initiative to come down and meet the true emperor of their Iwa Country, the hunter who lurked in the dark night.
It can be said that the status of Iwakuni is only possible today thanks to the support of this Night King.
However, what made him unacceptable was that the Night King was not a man, but a serpent, a terrifying and heinous snake god.
Suddenly, he felt the ground tremble slightly, as if something was approaching him.
Wang Yan's heart suddenly tightened, his eyes flickered and he looked at the darkness ahead, not daring to go forward.
A pair of ghostly lights appeared in the darkness ahead, and the pair of ghostly lights were like lanterns of death, guiding the path of death, which made people shudder.
The surrounding snakes were rapidly retreating and fleeing, and both humans and snakes were terrified of the ghostly light.
Wang Yan didn't have the bearing of a king, and knelt directly on the ground, greeting the arrival of the snake god.
"Tiny human being, you actually have the courage to take the initiative to come to see me!" An obscure voice came from the darkness, like a sharp sword piercing through the secluded forest of his heart, making Wang Yan shiver.
A snake head the size of a house slowly emerged from the darkness, with three pairs of fleshy horns on the top of the snake's head, like the horns of a dragon, and the triangular snake head was terrifying and gloomy.
The pair of cold vertical pupils kept flashing with a cold chill, and Wang Yan didn't even dare to touch the pair of ghostly lights.
"Your father, the timid man, saw me twice from the time he succeeded to the throne until he abdicated, and neither of them was of his own free will, you...... Very good, at least you have more courage than him. The head of the giant snake kept spitting out snake letters, and the air was filled with a trace of poisonous rancidity, and Wang Yan even became cautious in his breathing.
Wang Yan was bitter in his heart, if it wasn't for the last resort, he would definitely not want to take the initiative to see this fierce god.
"Great serpent god, your most loyal servant has come to ask you for help. Wang Yan plucked up his courage and wept sadly, just like a real servant crying his grievances in front of his master, without the dignity and spirit of a king.
"Help? What else do I need from Iwakoku? I've already helped you a lot, I've helped you create so many strong people, aren't you still satisfied?"
Wang Yan heard that the snake god was a little dissatisfied, and immediately kowtowed vigorously: "Great master, the miracle you created with boundless divine power has indeed made the Yan Kingdom glorious and prosperous, but now the Yan Kingdom has encountered a crisis, in the war with the Taiwu Kingdom, the Taiwu Kingdom befriended the prince of an empire, and the prince sent a terrifying strong man to wipe out a group of strong men, including the general, and now the rest are either surrendered or slaughtered, and only Bai Yuetian escaped back safely." ,、
"The prince of the empire!?" The snake head suddenly disappeared into the darkness, Wang Yan was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, the body like a small mountain was completely revealed from the darkness: "You want to use the snake god army?"
Wang Yan's eyes flashed, and he immediately lowered his head to cover up the abnormal movement in his heart.
He just wants to use the Snake God Legion, which is the most terrifying human snake legion created by the snake god himself, their number is no more than a thousand, but when everyone in the snake army has an emperor, they are a group of monsters created by distorted forces, but unfortunately this group of monsters does not belong to him.
Even he has no right to command this group of human snake monsters, only the most terrifying monster in front of him has the right to give him the power to command.
The snake god seemed to hesitate and ponder, and his eyes flashed as if he was making a decision.
Giving Wang Yan the command of the snake group is not a big deal, if he can create a snake god legion, he has the ability to create a second snake god legion, but if it is really used to fight an empire, he has no confidence and no certainty.
Because he knew better than Wang Yan the seriousness of this, if it was not a last resort, he would never be willing to go to war with an empire at such a time, even if he was just lurking behind the scenes.
He has been lurking on this continent for tens of thousands of years, and he knows too well that the hidden power in this land is definitely not as simple as it seems.
Even if Iwakuni uses his strength, it is difficult to establish a huge empire, and the establishment of every empire is a long-standing storm that will not fall for thousands of years.
Behind those empires, there is a group of even more terrifying existences than him, who manipulate the change of imperial power and control the lifeblood of the empire.
No one knows better than him how terrible an empire is, and a prince can use this level of power, let alone a huge empire.
However, he lurks in the Iwakuni, constantly urging the Iwakuni to expand its strength, but also in order to one day, build a huge empire, and now this has to be said to be a huge opportunity.
To move or not to move? That's the question...... , The snake god knows very well that his strength is not enough to challenge an empire, but what if he unites his companions?
Start with that prince first, then combine the strength of themselves and their companions to instantly give the empire a devastating offensive, and then combine the power of mortals to quickly occupy the imperial power and territory of the human race, in this way, their plan will also take a big step forward.
If it was like now, it would take at least hundreds of years to complete that plan, but now there is a chance, and the opportunity to advance that plan by a hundred years has to be carefully considered.
"Can you be sure which empire is the prince?" the snake god asked.
"The news from the front line of Hosaku said that the prince was weak and sickly, and there were not many guards around him, but there were two half-emperors, and two emperor-level beings were protecting him, and Hosaku recognized two of them as being from the Izumo Empire. Wang Yan said.
"The Izumo Empire! The Izumo Empire is in civil strife right now, right?" said the snake god suddenly, meaningfully.
