Ala Shan Kou Stronghold!
The morning sun rose. The rising sun was blood-red, and today's morning sun was exceptionally red. It seemed as if today was a bloody day.
The Beastmen army densely packed at the front of the Ala Mountain Pass, with all kinds of siege escalades, siege carriages, siege towers, and so on. For the beastmen whose resources and technology were relatively behind, such a luxurious siege weapon formation was already nearing 90% of the beastmen's siege equipment. Just from the beastmen's siege equipment, one could tell that the beastmen definitely did not attack the city because they wanted to lure the main force of the Ala Mountain Pass so that the rest of the troops could snatch the food.
”These Beastmen are all serious this time!” At the highest point of Ala Shan Kou Fortress, a middle-aged man in bright yellow armor stared at the dense mass of siege equipment and said, ”Brother Rodan! I think it's better if you evacuate all of your academy's students from here! ”
”Hehe!” Brother Qin, although the students of our Holy Dragon Empire's Royal Academy have never been to the battlefield, their strength is still very good. There are even many students who are above the seventh rank. By Brother Qin's side, an old man with white hair and a white armor said — If Bai Cheng was here in Uganda, he would recognize this as his teacher. Currently, Rodin had already broken through level 9 and reached the standard of a Saint rank warrior. It was precisely because Rodin had reached the Saint rank that the Royal Academy of the Holy Dragon Empire allowed Rodin to lead the team without worry.
”Rodin! This time, it was no longer those small fights like before! To be honest, I'm not confident this time! ” ”I've been in contact with these Beastmen for most of my life. I know that once these guys act, they'll be extremely terrifying.”
”Is it that serious?” Rodin obviously did not believe the yellow-armored man's words. He continued to smile and said, ”I am someone who has participated in several battles against the beastmen and have some understanding towards them.”
”NO!” In the past, the people who robbed food were basically the Wolf Knights, Cynocephali, Centaurs, orcs, and other races with medium or low strength. The powerful Beastmen races did not participate! The orcs that were tested yesterday have sent out powerful races such as the Eagle, Lion, and Ox-head. The man in the bright yellow armor said, ”I have already sent word to the Empire and the Dragon Clan. ”I'm not afraid of anything else. I'm just worried about the two orcs …”
After saying that, the yellow armored man looked towards the north with a serious expression.
Hearing the yellow armored man's words, Rodan's face darkened. Then, he said in a serious tone, ”That shouldn't be the case! The two beast race members shouldn't be coming! Unless they want to start a war with the entire human race. ”
— The two beastmen they were talking about were the two beastmen's divine residences, the God of War and the Prophet.
”Hard to say!” The man in bright yellow armor said, ”This time, I have a bad premonition.”
”If the beast race really wants to start an all-out war, we can't leave either!” ”The students of the Royal Academy should be baptized in the baptism of war.”
”You have to consider this carefully!” The man in the bright yellow armor finally turned to look at Rodin and said, ”If you really stay here, it's very likely that quite a few of your student soldiers will be injured or even killed.”
”I know that!” Rodin said.
”Many of them are the disciples of those large clans!” The yellow-armored man continued, ”If you lose too much, even if Brother Rodin had broken through to the Saint realm, and you have the Royal Academy, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it.”
”I know that! ”However, there is only one possibility if a large number of casualties were to occur — the Ala Mountain Pass has fallen!” Rodin said, ”If it's really like that, I don't need to go back. Although I'm a teacher from the Imperial Academy of the Holy Dragon Empire, I'm still a human.”
”Alright!” The man in the bright yellow armor said, ”I'll put your student soldiers in the last line of defense.”
”Alright!” Rodin said.
A figure glowing with golden light appeared above the Beastmen army. There was no hawk-man standing beside the golden figure. Only the golden figure was left in the sky.
”Roar!” A sky-shattering roar came from the golden figure above the beast race. The one who roared was obviously an expert. That sound could be clearly heard by everyone in Ala Mountain Pass.
”It's him!” At the highest point of the fortress, the man in the bright yellow armor heard the roar and his face changed drastically as he shouted, ”Quick! Send the magic message to the Empire and the Dragon clan, the Beast Race's War God will appear! ”
”What?” Did they really come? Do they really want to instigate an all-out war between humans and orcs? ” Rodin shouted in disbelief.
”Pass the order!” ”Everyone, prepare for battle, double the number of men at the front,” the man in the bright yellow armor ordered loudly.
”Not enough! Send all your elites to the front lines! ” A dignified voice sounded. An old man wearing a dark brown battle armor appeared beside Rodin and the man dressed in a bright yellow battle armor as he spoke.
”Father!” The man in bright yellow armor respectfully called out.
”Duke Qin!” Rodin bowed as well – this person was the Qin Clan's number one expert, the one with domain level strength, Old Duke Qin.
”Cut the crap!” I will transfer all of my power to one line, we absolutely cannot let the normal soldiers of the Beastmen clan climb onto the city gate tower! ” Old Duke Qin gave the order seriously, ”There's more! ”Adjust some of the cannons to aim at the air and assist the air force in meeting the enemy.”
”Yes sir!” The man in bright yellow armor said.
”Also!” Tell the female members of the family and the Royal Academy to evacuate immediately! ” Old Duke Qin said again.
”NO!” Duke Qin! ”We can,” Rodin said quickly.
