Chapter 254 - Great Hero Of The Human Race, Henry
Current interval: Noon.
Current location: Victory City
In the barracks, all the soldiers were lined up neatly, their eyes revealed an unconcealable excitement. This excitement was completely due to the man in front of them.
A man that wore golden armor!
This man had once made great contributions to the human race, and was the Great Hero of the entire human race. Whether it was bringing 500 soldiers to kill the legendary water monster by the Pari Lake, or surrounding the rebel army in the Uria Valley.
There was even a rumor that he had obtained a powerful gem from the Dragon's lair.
Additionally, when his general died at the hands of Bandit Alliance, he vowed to avenge his death and left the city. Unbelievably, he had come back alive and became victorious after he single-handedly destroyed the Bandit Alliance!
If his achievements were to be written into a book, its height could be comparable to a tall person!
He was the Great Hero of the human race — General Henry!
Looking at this man, the soldiers were filled with admiration and envy. Many young soldiers worked hard with Henry to achieve their goals.
Facing these soldiers who looked at him with respect, Henry smiled slightly and spoke proudly.
"What is your occupation?"
"Soldiers!"
"What is your duty?"
"To protect the Motherland!"
"Are you afraid of fighting?!"
"No, we aren't!"
"Very good!"
Henry smiled in satisfaction, nodded, and looked at these soldiers with admiration.
These soldiers became more excited due to Henry's gaze of admiration.
To be able to receive the admiration of the Great Hero was simply the highest honor in their lives. For this Great Hero, they were willing to die even if it meant their deaths!
"With such heroic soldiers like you, the human race will definitely be invincible!
"Set off, let us fight for justice!"
"For justice!"
The young soldiers buzzed with excitement. They raised their weapons and shouted hungrily at General Henry.
Then, all the soldiers marched out of the barracks under Henry's lead and headed towards the elven territory.
To them, as long as General Henry was here, this battle was in their favor!
However, what they did not know was that the Great Hero had no intention of fighting at all. In other words, he was confident that this war would end carelessly.
One had to know that the current era was very balanced. Once one started the war, the balance of the forces would be broken. In such situations, the party that would be the last to fall into the trap would have the most benefits!
The elven elders all had such long lives, so they would definitely understand this point.
Henry was very confident about this!
As long as he led these soldiers to put on a tough stance, the elven race would definitely give up on this war.
Having the title of the Great Hero General Henry was enough to scare the enemies to death!
As for why it was a title and not a strength… It was because Henry did not have any strength at all.
Even from the start, his so-called illustrious military achievements were all lies. It may have looked difficult, but in fact, it was very simple. Without any command, the soldiers completed the mission.
Either that, he lied about the military information and deliberately exaggerated his military achievements.
There were even some who were just lucky enough to be killed by him.
Water monster? It did exist, and it scared many civilians. However, it was just a guy with a superficial appearance. Henry did not do anything at all. He just commanded the soldiers to go up one after another and fight for their lives.
Surrounding the rebel army? There was indeed such a thing. However, when he got up close to the rebel camp, they had all died due to internal strife.
The emerald gem that was brought back from the Dragon's Lair? This was just a bold boast. In fact, it was just an ordinary gem. What was even more ridiculous was that this gem was found in the rebel camp.
As for single-handedly avenging his men and wiping out the entire bandit alliance. This was something that did not exist at all. He just found a place to hide for a period of time. After making sure that the Bandit Alliance did not appear again, he came back and took the credit for it.
The so-called Great Hero of the human race was just a joke.
However, everyone believed it.
This made Henry think that he was the luckiest person in the world. He felt that he had been blessed by the Goddess of Luck.
Therefore, this war must be the same.
He would definitely be the one who would have the last laugh. With this thought, Henry smiled. As long as this plan succeeded, his prestige would rise to an unsurpassable height.
Even if he wanted to rebel, everyone would support him! He was only one step away!
However, just as Henry was immersed in his dream, he suddenly noticed that the troops in front seemed to have stopped moving.
"What's going on? Why aren't you moving forward? Are you guys afraid?" Henry frowned and shouted in dissatisfaction.
Soon, a soldier in front ran over and told Henry the situation.
"General Henry, there are two people up front who want to participate in this war."
"Two people? Who are they?" Henry frowned slightly. He was both puzzled and dissatisfied with this sudden situation, but the soldier could not say anything.
Obviously, he was not clear about the identity of these two guys who suddenly appeared. Otherwise, they would not have come to report incoherently.
Henry saw this and waved his hand impatiently, "Tell them to p*ss off. Who will be responsible if they delay the aircraft?"
Hearing General Henry bring up such an important matter, the soldier also shrank his neck. He immediately returned to the front of the group and prepared to follow Henry's instructions.
Looking at the soldier's back as he jogged, Henry felt a wave of irritation. What effect would these two humans have on a war?
To put it bluntly, Henry felt that there was no difference between whether there was more or less two cannon fodder.
If he did not hurry to come into contact with the elves and show the humans' resolute attitude, it was very likely that Henry's plan would change.
This was something he absolutely could not accept.
However, what he did not expect was that the little soldier who ran to the front actually turned back.
"Reporting to General Henry, those two guys said they want to see you."
"See me?!"
Henry was enraged.
Who exactly were these two guys? Are they here to pick a fight?!
