766: Chapter 244: The Method That Deters the Beastman from Acting Rashly (Part 1) 766: Chapter 244: The Method That Deters the Beastman from Acting Rashly (Part 1) The Behemoth Beasts gradually moved away, but Anthony still stood there for a long time, unable to leave.
He and his subordinates naturally couldn’t stop the Army of Behemoths from leaving any longer, and during the process of standing and watching, this Bear King had already formed his own plan in his heart.
“Uncle Zi, it seemed like that Bear Person just now wanted to submit to you.
Why didn’t you pay him any attention?” Shan sat on Zi’s shoulder, gently tugging at Zi’s hair.
Zi might appear strong and cold to others, but he could never act cold toward the little sisters Shan and Lei.
A gentle smile appeared on his face, “If your father were here, he certainly wouldn’t ask me such a question.”
Shan was stunned for a moment, while Lei on the other side already asked, “Why wouldn’t Dad ask?
Is it because of the equal life-pact between you two?
That’s right, it must be so.
Dad already knows what’s in Uncle’s mind, so of course he wouldn’t ask.”
Zi smiled faintly.
He didn’t explain, but Ye Yinzhu’s figure with a laughter-filled voice emerged in his mind.
My brother, I have pleted the first step.
Wait for me, within a year, I will definitely return to Thor Hammer Fort.
As an Amethyst Behemoth, besides his immense strength, what’s more important was that Zi also possessed intelligence no less than that of humans.
From the conversation between Behemoth King, Carl, and Anthony, from the state of affairs of the Army of Behemoths and Anthony’s way of speaking, he had already gained a rough understanding of the Bear King.
He could have killed Anthony, of course, with the power of the Four Sacred Beasts, it was even possible to breach Solomon Fortress from the relatively weak interior defenses.
But Zi didn’t want to do so.
Beastmen have never lacked powerful warriors, but they were lacking true manders and talents.
In Zi’s eyes, Anthony was undoubtedly a talent.
To subdue the entire Solomon Tribe would be more beneficial for the future development of the Beastmen than to annihilate them by force.
After all, the Three Great Beastman Tribes had already ruled the Northernmost Wilderness for so many years.
If they relied solely on slaughter to end their rule, the entire Beastman’s World would likely fall into chaos, which was certainly not what Zi wished to see.
He wanted to bee the King of the Beastman, and at the same time, to lead the Beastman Clan to truly develop and grow strong.
Holy Light City.
Using rest as an excuse, Ye Yinzhu did not attend the celebration held by Marshall Martin and immediately went back to his dwelling to cultivate after ing down from the battlefield.
After all, he was still human.
Even if he had reached the peak of Zi rank, his power was ultimately limited.
This was a battlefield, and only by keeping his power constantly at a strong state, he could face any situation.
Upon returning to Holy Light City, he only issued two orders.
One was to mand the Horned Hawk Knights to monitor the situation of Thor Hammer Fort from afar in the high sky, and the other was to have Haiyang lead the Zither Emperor’s Twelve Musician Lanes to play “Cultivation Source Calm Mind Song” within the four infantry legions.
Even though his words had already freed the Qin City Warriors from their fear, the shock to their spirits needed recovery.
To fully enter the Grim Reaper state, having Three Hundred Grim Reaper was enough; Ye Yinzhu did not wish to see more warriors losing their human essence like the Three Hundred Grim Reaper did.
“Cultivation Source Calm Mind Song” could not only restore the warriors’ strength but also stabilize their spirits.
Just like a blacksmith tempering a weapon, after the scorching fire, gentle water was also needed to strengthen it.
“Yin Zhu.” Oliveira rushed in frantically from outside.
“Brother, what’s wrong?
Is there something happening at Thor Hammer Fort?” Ye Yinzhu asked with closed eyes.
Having lost his vision, whether his eyes were open or closed made no difference to him.
Oliveira exclaimed with admiration, “Yin Zhu, you truly have a divine sense of things.
There has indeed been movement at Thor Hammer Fort.
Although we are unable to observe up close, from the aerial view, we can see large-scale troop movements within Thor Hammer Fort.
The Elf Soldiers with the best vision told me that among those moving troops included today’s Golden Legion on the battlefield.
But what’s odd is that with such large-scale troop movements, Guti seems to be entering the interior of the Northernmost Wasteland rather than launching a counterattack against us.”
A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Yinzhu’s mouth as he thought to himself, Brother Santos has finally made a move.
It seems that Brother Zi is not as rough and straightforward as he appears on the surface; he must have taken advantage of today’s battle to leave Thor Hammer Fort.
“Brother Oliveira, go tell Hongyan to prepare the Cavalry Corps for an assault.
I’ll be there shortly.”
Oliveira was startled, “Yinzhu, the battle has just ended, and Thor Hammer Fort isn’t mounting an offensive against us.
What are you…”
A mysterious smile appeared on Ye Yinzhu’s face, “It’s to cover for our allies.
Go quickly.
I’ll explain later.” As he spoke, he had already risen from the ground and was walking swiftly towards the outside.
Before leaving the city, he needed to see Marshal Martin.
Knowing the importance of time on the battlefield, Oliveira hurried off.
Acpanied by Sura, Ye Yinzhu rapidly made his way to Marshal Martin’s mansion.
“Yinzhu, have you finished cultivating?
You, you claim such a great victory today, how could you not attend the celebration I’m throwing for you?” Marshal Martin couldn’t help but plain as soon as he saw Ye Yinzhu.
After witnessing the strength of Qin City, the marshal had pletely erased the last bits of suspicion and doubt in his heart regarding Qin City.
Just like Emperor Silvio had done before, he decided to fully court Ye Yinzhu and Qin City, both for the sake of the Milan Empire and their Zi Luolan family.
Sura supported Ye Yinzhu’s arm as they entered the mansion, although she knew that with his Unity of Heaven and Man ability, he could sense his surroundings.
But she still did so.
Every time she saw Ye Yinzhu’s dull eyes, Sura’s heart would ache deeply.
If it hadn’t been for his journey to the Upper Landias Empire in search of her, how would Yinzhu have ended up like this?
Ye Yinzhu never showed any sign of why he had bee blind.
Although Sura had a vague guess, he insisted on not saying anything, and there was nothing she could do about it.
“Marshal Martin, I am here to request your troops to dispatch.” Ye Yinzhu said straightforwardly.
“Deploy troops?
Now?” Marshal Martin was startled and furrowed his brow as he looked at Ye Yinzhu.
It’s important to note that it’s barely been an hour since the war ended.
Although the soldiers of the Northern Legion hadn’t been involved in the fighting, deploying troops twice within one day certainly didn’t conform to military mon sense.
Ye Yinzhu nodded firmly, “That’s right, now.
Our Horned Hawk Knights from Qin City have just sent a message back, saying that Thor’s Hammer Fort’s Golden Legion has suddenly left the fortress and headed into the interior of the wasteland.
Such an opportunity is rare.
Marshal, your soldiers haven’t engaged in battle before and are still a fresh force.
What we need to do now is put enough pressure on Thor Hammer Fort.
If I’m not incorrect, I’m afraid Guti has followed the Golden Legion as well.
It’s a perfect opportunity for us to inflict another heavy blow on the Beastman.”
Marshal Martin frowned and said, “Yinzhu, this might not be appropriate.
It’s one thing to fight the Beastman on the plains, but attacking a fortress is another matter.
e, sit down and listen to me.”
Although Ye Yinzhu was somewhat impatient, after all, the Northern Legion wasn’t his, so he had no choice but to sit down in a nearby chair.
Marshal Martin said, “Thor Hammer Fort can be said to be the most solid defensive bulwark on the entire continent.
Managed by the Thunder God Tribe for many years, the fortress walls are more than a hundred meters high and over thirty meters thick.
They are cast from granite mixed with iron ore and the unique clay found only in the Northernmost Wilderness.
It’s so solid that even a Forbidden Curse hitting it wouldn’t cause significant damage.
Moreover, Thor Hammer Fort itself has a Forbidden Magic Field that renders all magic ineffective.
Coupled with the defense of nearly a million soldiers from the Beastman Clan, attacking Thor Hammer Fort would only bring massive casualties to our forces.
It is an unwise move.
I’ve fought the Thunder God Tribe for decades, and if it weren’t for the fortress being too difficult to conquer, why do you think I’d be willing to put up with the Beastman Clan’s autumn plundering every year like putting out fires everywhere?
We’ve tried attacking the fortress directly before, but none of those attempts ended in anything but failure.
Yinzhu, I know your Qin City warriors are strong, and you’ve gained great prestige today, but remember, on the battlefield, you cannot make any mistakes.
One wrong move and you could very well face the annihilation of your entire force, or even affect the overall battle situation.”
Marshal Martin meant well with his words, subtly hinting at Ye Yinzhu not to get arrogant over previous victories, and he also informed him about the specifics of Thor Hammer Fort.
However, he didn’t know Ye Yinzhu’s real intention was not to conquer that solid fortress.
Ye Yinzhu naturally understood that Marshal Martin wasn’t deliberately unwilling to dispatch troops and that his concerns were meant in good faith.
Ye Yinzhu hesitated over whether to tell the marshal about his strategic arrangements with Zi.
Seeing Ye Yinzhu silent, Marshal Martin thought he wasn’t heeding his words, and he continued earnestly, “Yinzhu, the best way to defeat the Beastman Clan is to lure them out of Thor Hammer Fort’s defenses and face us in a frontal battle.
Only then can our mages and dragon cavalry fully utilize their true advantages…”(To be continued, if you wish to know what happens next, please visit , more chapters are available, support the author, support genuine reading!)
