Chapter 809 - Blood Oath Battle (14)
Chapter 809 of "MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again" opens presenting key developments: Lu Hong, who had already been informed of this matter by the Netherworld God, immediately... Read on!
Lu Hong, who had already been informed of this matter by the Netherworld God, immediately agreed: "With half of the Lion Heart bloodline flowing through me, how could I ignore this? Rest assured, I am fully aware of the causes and effects of this matter and will seek Bu Sheng for help."Eferot was taken aback by Lu Hongās words: "How did you find out about this?!"
It was the Fifth Ancestor who secretly informed him, and even Taiāe probably didnāt know about this. How did ... how did he learn of it?
Just as he was in a daze, Eferot felt his cheek open up, as a fist the size of a sandbag hit him squarely in the face.
In an instant, Eferot spun 720 degrees in the air, landing in a dizzy state.
"You bastard!" Eferot cursed through clenched teeth.
Lu Hong hadnāt intended to pursue the attack, but upon hearing the curse, raised an eyebrow: "Youāre still cursing me?"
With that, he lifted his foot and kicked towards his opponent.
Hearing the whistling sound of the kick cutting through the air, Eferotās face changed again, hastily raising his arms in a cross defense.
With a muffled sound, Eferot, who had just sat up from the ground, was sent flying once more, crashing into the protective barrier.
To the surprise of no one, the scene of Lu Hong brutally beating Eferot played out; a joke, even Taiāe Your Majesty had been knocked down, how could the Great Prince win?
At this time, someone who thought the spectacle wasnāt entertaining enough shouted: "Your Highness Zhen Luo King, why not surrender? Even Your Majesty lost to the mighty Duke, no point in showing off now!"
Unfortunately, just as those instigating words were spoken, a firm hand landed on his shoulder.
Turning his head, he immediately felt his spirit flee in fright, forcing a smile: "M-Master Battle Lion."
"Are you bored with the show? Come, letās loosen your muscles and bones." With that, he dragged the person out of the crowd for a good beating.
After an hour of bitter battle, Eferot finally conceded defeat, kicked off the stage by Lu Hong.
With a face swelling like a pigās head, Eferot clutched his aching butt, cursing as he squeezed into the crowd, disappearing from Lu Hongās sight.
Before long, Eferot entered Taiāeās side chamber, sitting next to Taiāe with an indignant look.
This brother of his truly spared him no face, even publicly beating him up like this in front of the millions of the Beast Race. Poor Eferot, the Golden Lion, dignified Zhen Luo King, reputation tarnished, so loathsome! Truly loathsome!
Taiāe looked at Eferotās pig-headed appearance and burst into hearty laughter, taking a while to catch his breath: "Have you thought it through?"
Eferot looked at Taiāe with resentment, replying: "Yes, Iāve thought it through."
"How did you come to terms with it? The Lion Heart Ancestor must have approached you?"
Eferot nodded: "Indeed, it was under the persuasion of the Lion Heart Ancestor that I came to terms."
"Oh? Did the Lion Heart Ancestor advise you to give up?"
"Not that, they are determined to uphold the imperial glory of the Lion Heart Royal Familyās heritage." Eferot smiled, but the smile tugged at his wounds, making him bare his teeth in pain.
After a while, Eferot spoke again, recounting the words of the Fifth Ancestor to Taiāe.
After hearing Eferotās account, Taiāe fell into silence, then sighed: "This old thing, truly unworthy of being my Lion Heart Ancestor, heās extremely despicable!"
Taiāe did not blame him for being afraid of death; after all, oneās life is all there is, and being an emperor, his death would indeed cause significant repercussions for the nation.
Taiāeās grievance was that this bastard actually concealed it, leading every generation of Lion Kings over thousands of years to futilely investigate the truth behind the difficulty of offspring procreation, wasting countless efforts and resources in vain struggle.
Although it wasnāt Taiāeās first time hearing this, having been told by the Seventh Ancestor, at this moment, he didnāt want to reveal any connection, so he feigned ignorance, but the anger was certainly genuine.
"Father, I believe that since this curse was laid by the Snowy Region, they hold the key to resolving it. Currently, the forces of the Snowy Region are largely under the command of the Star Sky Alliance, and will surely heed Tu Ku Lu. Hence, I believe only if he ascends to the position of Beast King, will the Bu Sheng of Snowy Region perhaps find a way to carry on the Lion Heart Royal Familyās bloodline, and the Star Sky Alliance wonāt interfere."
Upon hearing this, Taiāe nodded: "Youāre right, who would be willing to save their enemyās life, let alone nurture a potential future adversary?"
As the two conversed, the battle in the arena resumed.
At this moment, the Lion King Hall was already engulfed in madness. From the onset of the tournament, Lu Hong had made his intention to eliminate them abundantly clear, so in the eyes of the Lion King Hall, even if Lu Hong took the throne as the Beast King, he would not let them off generously, surely heād be merciless.
Compared to the Lion King Hall, the ancient Beast Race indeed retreated, having suffered great losses in the Eternal Plane battle, with talent within the tribe declining. Having Lu Hong eliminate another batch, the remaining strong become ever more precious.
Seeing the Tiger King defeated, his entire vigor absorbed by Lu Hong, they gave up. Anyway, they planned to venture into All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, at which point they could break away from the main formation and forge their own path. Why waste strength on this Beast King position?
Now, the Hawk Falcon Venerable took to the stage, as his robe fell away, the half-meter-wide wings behind him stretched out, exuding an imposing presence.
Seeing the form of this hawk falcon, the audience below erupted in astonishment.
The Hawk Falcon, though came to fame 150 years after the Tiger King, rose as another war general of the Beast Race after the Tiger Kingās era.
Holding a long spear, he alone charged in and out seven times amidst the million-strong human army, like a wrathful demon god reincarnated.
According to historical records, the Hawk Falcon commanded the army at Nansha, with his back to the Nansha Great Forest, a lone force pinned in the Sacred Empireās hinterland.
This location was extremely challenging for the Beast Race in terms of support or resupply, as all logistics needed to pass through the Nansha Great Forest,
taking a detour beside the Great Snow Mountain, which was time-consuming, and frequent appearances of Demon Beasts in the Nansha Great Forest made every transport of supplies fraught with danger.
Moreover, Nansha Town, backed by the Nansha Great Forest, was an isolated town protruding into Beast Race territory. If surrounded by the Human Race, even sending in reinforcements in time would be impossible.
But in such a desperate situation, the Hawk Falcon of the Beast Race managed to command and defend for eighty years there, causing the Sacred Empire endless headaches due to this solitary town, a sharp blade ready to stab into the Human Raceās core any time. The Sacred Empire launched several offensives to capture this town, but was always repelled by this Flying Hawk Great General, raising the Beast Raceās prestige with his reputation reverberating across the universe.
Unfortunately, such an elite warrior of the Beast Race ultimately couldnāt escape the Human Raceās trap.
The Sacred Empire seized the opportunity when the Beast Race was at war with the Snowy Region to launch another siege of Nansha Town, besieging the Hawk Falcon for half a year before finally killing him and capturing the town. From then on, the Nansha Great Forest once more became a border between the Beastman Empire and the Sacred Empire.
However, with the Hawk Falconās appearance, this history was evidently completely overturned.
Lu Hong looked at the imposing Hawk Falcon before him and laughed: "So, how much of our Beast Race history is actually falsified?"
Upon hearing this, the Hawk Falcon responded in a deep voice: "The siege from the Sacred Empire wasnāt false, but it was my own brother who died in my place, while I was secretly rescued from Nansha by the Hall Master, thus joining the Lion King Hall."
By now, the existence of the Lion King Hall was undeniable.
The Hawk Falcon then straightforwardly said: "Youāve already killed a Venerable of the Lion King Hall, putting us at a point of no return."
"Is that so? If thatās the case, I will slaughter your entire Lion King Hall; if you have any complaints, blame your lack of skill."
"Lack of skill?" The Hawk Falcon sneered at those words, considering the Tiger King only lost due to arrogance and an unforeseen mishap; as for him, the Hawk Falcon wouldnāt follow in his footsteps.
At this time, Lu Hong pondered a moment before saying, "The members of your Lion King Hall must all be the veterans of the Beast Race, right? How about this, if you sincerely surrender, I can let bygones be bygones, for conquering All Heavens indeed requires such battle-hardened generals as you."
Hearing Lu Hongās offer of pardon, to say the Hawk Falcon wasnāt tempted would be a lie. The boyās strength was undeniable, and though the Falcon had some confidence, it wasnāt great. Coming to the stage this time was more for setting up the subsequent participants, as long as he fought without dying to wear him down, the Lion King Hallās grand scheme could still succeed, without necessary sacrifice.
After a momentās hesitation, the Hawk Falcon spoke in a deep voice: "For this matter, wait for the Hall Master to take the stage and discuss it with him!"
