Chapter 504 - Avion Empire
Rosebleed Ancient Queen. It was the name of the woman who came right now in aid of Burncoal Ancient King. They were both part of the same kingdom, the Flau Kingdom in the west. They were hostile with the Elf Kingdom for so long now, and it was given that they would make a move against the Elf Kingdom.
Repestine couldn't help but suck a mouthful of breath. He couldn't make a move right now that two kings were present. It was truly suicidal.
"So what now?" Rosebleed would love to fight against this old man with a deep existence among his peers, "I heard that you have powerful arts that can render anyone helpless. I'd love to see it right now."
She was eager to fight right now. It had been a while since her last fight and a level of Repestine would be enough for her to return her touch.
The elders behind Repestine were sending him messages to fight it out with these two. After all, they had the number advantage. Thus their winning possibilities were higher. But Repestine sighed and shook his head, "No, it's not possible. I don't underestimate your capabilities, but we are facing against kings here. Furthermore, I don't want to waste resources in this meaningless fight. Remember, we only have limited quantities here."
Repestine saw the bigger picture. If we talk about raw power, the two from Flau Kingdom were stronger. However, if we include variables such as the terrain and formations, the Elf Kingdom would surely win. Only, the cost was they could no longer enter the tomb. After all, how could they face the dangers lurking inside if they didn't have resources to use?
"So you're not going to fight? Tsk, pathetic." Rosebleed sneered. She was very disappointed that the other party didn't bite the taunts. If they did, it would increase their chances of getting a loot by leaps and bounds.
Burncoal was also laughing in mockery. He already expected this. He knew that dealing with Repestine wouldn't be easy. Anyway, the time was still long. He could deal with him anytime as long as he was here.
After an hour, more than twelve kingdoms appeared. They had their own battle armies, prepared enough to battle out the dangers inside the tomb. Moreso, Flau Kingdom's army had also arrived.
The Elf Kingdom was the center of mockery and taunts of other kingdoms led by Burncoal.
"Want to challenge the tomb without an army? Aren't you too confident of yourselves to do this? Haha, why. Do you think that you are already an emperor to do so?" Burncoal was filled with hatred towards the other party. So he didn't let the opportunity to mock Repestine slide.
The mocking laughs were followed by those with a favorable attitude towards the Flau Kingdom. Compared to the declining Elf Kingdom, it was natural who they would side.
Repestine didn't give them a glance and just focus on the mysteries of the gate. He was hoping that he might find some clues about the origin and calculate their survival chances.
Seeing that he was ignored, Burncoal was angered. He was about to moc Repestine again when the earth trembled.
"Boom!" Ten thousand soldiers appeared out of the space and marched with prideful expressions. They were wearing black armors with spears, swords and all kinds of weaponry. Even if the forces here combined against this army, the kingdoms would surely still lose.
"Avion Empire! The empire has come!" Someone shouted. It was filled with excitement and reverence.
Everyone paled as they look at this scene with reverence. Avion Empire, the current leader of the kingdoms present here. They were one of the four empires this continent had.
This empire was created way back millions of years ago, a record told so. It was said that the Avion Empire had nurtured 4 ancient emperors in the past, and in that future, someone will add to the list. Just imagine, four ancient emperors. That's a powerhouse that would strike fear to people!
Even Glorified Ancient Emperor respected this empire in the past and gave them a lot of face. Take note, Glorified was one of the brilliant emperors of his era.
So one could already deduce how powerful the empire was right now, and they truly had the right to be called empire.
Amidst of the terrifying line up of the empire, a bulky man appeared out of nowhere. He was half naked. His body was full of scars, it was obvious that he was a veteran of the war.
"General Xuazong!" Someone who was familiar with this character shouted, "To think that the empire will dispatch one of their strongest ancient kings, they are surely taking this matter seriously."
General Xuazong was one of the oldest generals of the empire. In the past, he was under the banner of the third ancient emperor, Avsta, and became the vanguard during wars.
His popularity rose immediately after surviving 100 moves against Avsta Ancient Emperor during a fight. That's a great feat, knowing that an emperor was against an ancient king.
Repestine was stupefied by this, too. He had thought of so many important characters that the empire would dispatch. But he excluded this existence! After all, he was one of the strongest generals the empire had. Unless it was grave of importance, they wouldn't dispatch him, "It seems that I still underestimated the empire."
"Kingdoms under our banner. Greetings." General Xuazong said with a cold tone and said, "I am General Xuazong and I am tasked to lead this expidition inside the tomb. It is general knowledge that it is very dangerous inside the emperor's tomb, so we have to cooperate to avoid casualties."
He paused for a moment and continued, "Of course, the empire will not monopolize everything. We will split whatever we find inside at 50-50. You know what I mean, right?"
It meant that 50% was solely for the empire, and 50% will be divided into the kingdoms present here. It was a very bad deal, but what could they do? They didn't want to offend this general, so they kept their mouth shut. Even those from the Flau Kingdom didn't dare to fart.
