649 Behemoth Return (1/2)

”The Federation is incompetent. The heroes are shameless.”

This was not the first time the words had appeared. More accurately, it was the third time.

Apart from the time when Ice Elemental Sprite Queen was defeated, there was also a Mythical dimensional creature that challenged Orochi, only to end in defeat. After that victory, Orochi similarly spat out the words.

Now that the Golden Giant was defeated again, the entire Federation seemed to explode. Public opinion turned to question the abilities of the six hero families.

If they couldn't even deal with a single Orochi, how could they uphold the Federation's peace?

There were even some relatively biting media outlets that directly used headlines like ”Are the descendants of the heroes still heroes?” to criticize the six families' inaction.

This was especially so for the West District's media. They bombarded the Family Clan of Gods and Cape family with various opinions.

As the Zhang, Xia, and Dugu families hadn't taken action to date, they weren't as miserable as the other three families even though they were constantly questioned.

After all, they hadn't been defeated. In theory, they still had the ability to win. They were different from the Cape family and the Family Clan of Gods who had been defeated one after another.

The six families also knew that their various schemes and arrangements were made to win the final championship. Now, an Orochi had stirred up the situation, disrupting their plans.

If they revealed their trump cards, it wouldn't be difficult to kill Orochi. However, if that happened, they would lose the chance to vie for first place with the other families. Therefore, they could only send inferior Mythical Companion Beasts to fight, but the outcome was defeat.

The Zhang, Xia, and Dugu families were even more depressed. Of all times, the core forces of their three families had gone to the Southern Wilderness's dimensional zones. Although there were others who could fight, the Companion Beasts were still in their plans. If they were exposed ahead of time, it would trigger a series of chain reactions and disrupt their plans.

As such, the Federation's situation became very delicate.

None of the six families were willing to expose their top Mythical Companion Beasts, but they ended up being defeated by Orochi three times in a row. It left the entire Federation's citizens ashamed.

”From the looks of it, we can only expose some things ahead of time. Those few families are shameless, but our Xia family can't be shameless.” Xia Dongyue was still hesitating as to which Mythical Companion Beast his family was to assign.

Why did Liuchuan have to go to the Southern Wilderness at such a time? Xia Dongyue thought gloomily. If Xia Liuchuan was here, his Companion Beast would be best at restraining a Companion Beast like Orochi. If the enemy wasn't prepared, it wouldn't be impossible to kill it in one strike.

Unfortunately, Xia Liuchuan wasn't around, causing Xia Dongyue to have a headache.

The Xia family wasn't the only one with a headache. The other five families were also having a headache. At this stage, if they didn't defeat Orochi, the reputation of the six families would probably be damaged.

The few families had already planned on sending their top Companion Beasts to battle, but at that moment, the black cube lit up.

The media had been bombarding the six families for their inaction. They hoped that they could step forward as soon as possible. Just as they were in a frenzy, they realized that the black cube had lit up. They thought that the six families had made a move.

However, they soon discovered that the entity who appeared on the cube was Tyrant Behemoth who had previously given up.

”Eh, why is Tyrant Behemoth out again? Didn't it not dare to accept the battle previously?”

”It should be challenging other Companion Beasts, right?”
