Four-Armed Divine Emperor
Page 137
Caesar was born extremely handsome (Prince Ahmed was drooling over him), with a cold temperament, and behaved eccentrically towards things other than Al. The combination of the two had a kind of crazy beauty, and he was very enthusiastic about his father. In comparison, the second brother Cyrus was used more as a "tool" by Al because he was too calm, basically doing all kinds of tasks - of course, "forced" rest and entertainment were also indispensable.
Al is very tolerant of the cubs, and they all deserve his tolerance and will not let him get over the conflict between the remaining moral conscience baggage from the past and the reality.
The only thing to worry about or something "out of line" is that Al allows or even encourages these kids to "develop themselves", and finally raises a bunch of rebellious sons?
Just like Caesar, Al had thought about arranging partners for his sons before, preferably like him, with ordinary people in his harem, not affected by bloodline, but the third son "rejected" Al's "good intentions" on this point. Of course, it was also Al who did not directly point out a partner to Caesar, otherwise the third son would definitely accept it no matter what. He said, "Find someone you like, show him to your father, and then I will arrange a wedding for you." The reason he did not need to specify was because Al himself knew that as long as he pointed out the person, the heirs would definitely accept it directly, no matter if it was beautiful or ugly, male or female.
Chapter 425
Is she a woman, a human or an animal, or even life or death...
He hopes that his descendants can "find someone they love" like himself.
The reason for Caesar's "rejection" was very simple:
He believed that he would not, and even if he did, it would be impossible for him to put his emotions, time, and "love" on anyone other than Al.
He likes fighting because it really benefits his father's career.
As for "loving" anyone other than Al and my brothers, I can't do it!
Of course, not all sons are so abstinent. Some of them do develop this kind of "personality" of seeking a mate. Of course, it's unclear whether they truly love, or, like Al, gain pleasure from the act of "mating," or whether they simply don't understand and simply think they are following their father's orders...
However, all of El's daughters believe in celibacy without exception. They are simple and unpretentious, and they firmly believe that everything they have belongs to El, and that El will one day bless their bodies to directly give birth to their father's next generation.
This made Al a little scared, but it was the same principle, if the kids didn't want to, he wouldn't force them.
Al's moral integrity is already low enough now.
But if he really wanted to unlock the achievement of his blood daughter, he still couldn't do it.
---------------
The Romans destroyed the vanguard of the French coalition in an unimaginable way.
When we first entered the battlefield, there was nothing wrong.
However, after the real war broke out, in addition to the complete defeat at the mortal level, at the extraordinary level, the vanguard army of more than 2,000 mages also encountered unprecedented opponents.
They cast spells smoothly and normally, without any restrictions.
However, the effect of the spell is far different from normal circumstances!
An unknown strangeness weakened the magical power of the entire coalition!
An ice spike that could theoretically penetrate ten armored soldiers stacked on top of each other might not even be able to penetrate the shield or breastplate of an "ordinary" soldier;
Changing the terrain was unusable, as if the "inherent elements" around the battlefield were restricted by some force that could suppress more than two thousand mages from casting spells at the same time.
And these are not the most terrifying things. Suppressing magic power is something that the White Tower can do by itself. The most terrifying thing for them is...
The enemy has no obvious extraordinary forces!
In other words, the enemy's extraordinary people seem to be mixed with "ordinary" soldiers!
There is no clear boundary between the two. It seems that the enemy does not care about the noble status of the extraordinary people and treats them as ordinary soldiers!
.........
Caesar looked up at the sky with a sneer of disdain. He waved his spear and the guards around him immediately scattered. At the same time, eight streams of light fell from the sky and landed around the battlefield, but none of them landed on the Romans.
This subtle action, which attracted no attention at all, startled some mages who were secretly watching the battlefield in various ways.
The enemy seemed to have completely predicted their actions!
Even the landing point is clear?
It's so mysterious and unpredictable, and the methods are unimaginable...
For a moment, many mages who originally supported sending out war magic machines began to waver—they were no longer confident about the success of this operation!
If there was still some hope before, then it would be just this small detail - on the battlefield, the density of troops on both sides is very high, and shoulder to shoulder is a necessary condition for maintaining the formation. At this time, let alone throwing eight big guys weighing an average of 15 tons, even if you throw a few stones randomly, the probability of hitting nothing is very low.
As the commander-in-chief, Caesar naturally had the strongest "protection" around him, and the personnel were also very dense. Even in such a situation, Bai Ta used the teleportation spell to send down eight golems, but did not hit anyone. It's not that it doesn't matter whether people are hit or not, but the ability shown by the enemy of "I predicted all your operations" is very scary!
Chapter 90: Nine-ring White Pagoda
"How did they guess that?"
Some people couldn't control their surprise.
The Nine-Ring White Tower's giant soldiers descending from the sky was a completely impromptu move. No arrangements that could be detected or investigated were made beforehand. They were completely carried out after monitoring the battlefield and discovering the enemy's special features.
They believed that Caesar, as the apparent "commander-in-chief" of the Roman army, must have some secrets about the enemy's strength. After discussion, they believed that whether they tried to capture him or kill him, they would gain something, so they decided to increase their investment with an additional operation.
The eight golems were positioned above the Roman army through teleportation spells, and then fell freely. This way, they made the least noise before reaching their "destination", allowing the enemy to sense the magic fluctuations and the possibility of determining the landing coordinates of the teleportation spell was also minimized.
Their landing point is located around Caesar's central commander's camp. They will enter war mode before landing, with the primary goal of seriously injuring Caesar and then capturing him. If this can be achieved, Sky City will increase its investment and send the White Tower Mage Corps led by ten eight-ring mages into the battlefield, striving to capture the enemy's "general" alive and bring him back to the White Tower.
Fortunately, it was Al who was worried about the "first meeting" and what killing tricks the White Tower had planned. After all, his power could not take care of everything. What if the enemy was just a superficial
Chapter 426
Using mortals as cannon fodder, but secretly preparing for a big move?
The battlefield is changing rapidly. Ai'er is invincible in the world - but not Caesar, and his descendants cannot do it.
That's why he specifically instructed Caesar not to lead the troops to the front line this time. Although the third brother has a combat power that exceeds that of a regular eight-ring mage with his blessing bonus, the White Tower is a big tree with deep roots after all. Al is absolutely unwilling to lose his closest child just to take advantage of these 150,000 people.
Therefore, the White Tower was able to identify Caesar's presence among tens of thousands of troops, because the third brother followed his father's instructions very well and only had an overview of the overall situation in his own commander's camp, but that didn't mean he hid himself and kept a low profile.
The process of him releasing the "spell" and motivating the legion was monitored by Sky City, otherwise they would not have been able to confirm this man's "extraordinary" nature.
......
The eight war golems, weighing an average of fifteen tons, fell from the sky with a force no less powerful than missiles. Not to mention killing a lot of people, the shock caused by their landing alone was a huge impact on people within a radius of dozens of meters.
However, restricted by some strange force, the fluctuations caused by these war golems made of enchanted materials and fine steel when they landed were nothing more than some cracks and breaks in the ground, just like the spell effects of the coalition side were far different from normal conditions, and the power was estimated to be less than one-seventh or one-eighth.
War golems are among the weapons developed by mages. They were once deployed in the Old War against the Sorcerer King's forces. Later, after some refinements, they were intended for use in the wars of exploring the outer planes and astral expansion. However, due to the development of Il's civilization, the mages capable of exploring the outer realms went their separate ways. The glorious future of Il's becoming an "astral civilization" as envisioned by the "explorers" never materialized. Consequently, these golems were reduced to guarding the gates for the mages, protecting the mage towers, and acting as meat shields, cannon fodder, and slave laborers, doing the dirty work...
These eight golems used to "capture" Caesar are also quite extraordinary in this category. They look like rock giants with angular bodies and hands made of liquid mithril that can be deformed at will.
Artificial crystals that store huge amounts of magic power are embedded inside and outside the body. The former can provide them with a large amount of magic storage, while the external crystals can continuously absorb magic power and convert it into their own abilities.
To some extent, these golems could be said to be of an alternative, transcendental "seven-ring realm". In terms of pure combat capability, according to the White Tower's criteria, these eight golems were indeed at the level of a seven-ring mage, and were considered "Beta" level golems.
These eight beta-level golems can easily overthrow a kingdom, let alone a mortal army of only tens of thousands of people. Even the main force of an empire can fight against them.
Even Osiris, the guardian of the Alan Empire, who mainly uses the Shaping System to reach the Eighth Ring, had no choice but to adopt the tactic of avoiding battle when facing eight golems at the same time.
Yet they are now being used against an individual.
It should have been an easy task, but after the previous surprise... the people in the Nine Rings White Tower had no confidence in the success of this attack.
..........
The core of the White Tower Order, consisting of nine large and small sky cities, is located in the west of the Tartarus continent, above the Endless Sea.
The location of the "Nine-ring White Pagoda".
The core of the core.
Most mortals may never know in their lifetime that the "Nine Rings of the White Tower" refers to the "Sky Islands" composed of nine sky cities. This is where most of the "Disciples of the Holy Gate" are located. It is the core of the core of the White Tower's order. All other sky cities and their managers and mentors basically came from the Sky Islands composed of these nine sky cities.
Compared to those sky cities that are still within the "cognition" of mortals, at least at the level of imagination, the scene of the "Nine-ring White Tower" can be described as a magnificent paradise on earth.
A glorious city in the clouds, a magnificent holy paradise.
Huge crystal pillars, magnificent buildings, cloud waterfalls, rainbow bridges, sky boats... There will never be sunset and darkness here, and there will never be dirt and filth.
For those mortals who have had the good fortune to visit and witness the magnificence of the Nine-ring White Pagoda, they have a special name for this place:
"Nine Rings of Heaven".
And in the "Inner Ring" of the "Nine Rings", which is the highest authority of the White Tower Order:
The seat of the "Supreme Council".
There were hundreds of inner circle delegates who came to the scene in person.
They all wore uniform clothing, mostly white robes with hoods, but they would pin badges on their chests representing their respective teachers and origins. The White Tower Order had been established for thousands of years, and the study of these complex "master-disciple inheritances" alone had created a specialized heraldry discipline.
The participants were strong and weak. Some stood there, as if they were one with the natural world. People around them consciously stepped aside and showed respect when they glanced at them. Some people were insignificant in strength and had not even reached the realm of seven-ring immortality, but they could still talk and speak freely here.
They basically have a similar identity:
"Disciples of the Holy Gate".
That is, the direct descendants or direct or second-generation disciples of the sages who founded the White Tower.
The order of the White Tower, the order of the mages, the society of the mages, is not a barbaric society where "strength is supreme" and people fight and kill each other.
On the contrary, it shows that the extraordinary authority cannot be challenged and the extraordinary is superior to mortals.
Chapter 427
There is also the coldness of the world, as well as the enjoyment of the present. Similarly, there is also the emphasis on "human relations, blood inheritance, and seniority."
After all, just because mages are extraordinary doesn’t mean they are completely two different races from the mortals on earth.
Respect for the "White Robe Sages" is a core pillar of the White Tower order. It is precisely because these sages led the world to launch an uprising and overthrew the tyranny of the Witch King that everything that happened later came about. Naturally, their descendants are born with a certain "sacredness".
Chapter 91: Insider?
This is the first time in exactly 1,987 years that the Supreme Council of the Nine-Ring White Tower has held a war meeting on "responding to the arrival of a comprehensive threat."
The last time the Nine Rings White Tower held a war meeting was four hundred years ago, when Enmini, located in the Land of the Giant Stone,
Signs of a large-scale "Old Ones invasion" are discovered within the Lucia Empire, and the White Tower begins mobilizing for war.
It was finally discovered that a Witch King force with the ability of prophecy and reconnaissance, the "Lord of True Knowledge", had infiltrated the Enminilucia Empire and developed a considerable force. It was used by the remnants of the Old Ones as an outpost to infiltrate Neyr. After a war, in less than two years from the time of exposure, the White Tower successfully defeated and expelled the Old Ones. Blocking the gate of Sky City was also a tactic used in that war.
The Old Ones at the time weren't planning a full-scale counterattack against Neil—invasion, or even infiltrating the core of the Enmini Empire, was a matter of chance. They saw an opportunity, and driven by profit, they chose to invest heavily. The White Tower only mobilized 14,000 mages and three Sky Cities to resolve the crisis, and with a crushing victory...
This time, everyone knew that the enemy was coming in full force. Although the Romans had not yet exposed their top combat power, the disappearance of Celine Zunxi was very telling.
Moreover, during the time of the Lord of True Knowledge, the strategic intention of the remnants of the Old Ones was actually to hide and preserve their existing interests, rather than to actively attack and expand their gains. They opened up a hidden space channel in the mountains of Enminia, allowing Neyr's supplies to be continuously sent to the exile place where the exiles were. In essence, they were digging into the White Tower.
The reason why it was exposed later was also very strange. Because a large amount of resources were missing, the opposition in the political environment of the Enmini Empire at that time discovered the problem and used it as a reason to attack the ruling faction, which was a puppet controlled by the old forces. They initially thought that this was a simple corruption problem, but they didn't expect to uncover a huge hole.
Later, the war between the White Tower and the Old Ones was actually a unilateral and proactive "expulsion operation". The Old Ones were unwilling to lose this rare "gateway to return home" without a fight, but they did not have the confidence and ability to fight against the White Tower, so they made some "symbolic" resistance and defense. From beginning to end, no "exile" - the Witch King himself stepped through the space channel and returned to the world of Il.
This time, the enemy not only demonstrated a terrifying "infiltration and control" capability that was far stronger than the last time the Enminilucia Empire did, but also displayed extremely aggressive posture.
The siege of Ctesiphon, the proactive attack on the Protectorate coalition...all showed that this time the enemy was not making a small-scale, tentative "counterattack", but had already planned to go to war with the White Tower in Alan, the Roman Empire, a vast land with a population of over 100 million!
Launch a full-scale challenge to the order of the mages!
Therefore, this incident undoubtedly received unprecedented attention from the White Tower.
There were so many participants present, a total of 987 people, almost breaking into the thousand. Of course, the number of people who came to the scene in person was the least, only 145, and the others participated in the discussion through projections. However, even so, the scale of this Supreme Council was unprecedented.
It can be said that the people here represent the "White Tower Order". The decisions they make will ultimately affect hundreds of thousands of extraordinary people in the entire mortal world and billions of mortals illuminated by the glory of the White Tower.
The reason why they didn't attend the meeting in person to show their seriousness was because some people had expressed their concerns before the meeting. It was a terrible guess:
They believed that the overthrow and infiltration of the Alan Empire, such a large-scale operation, such a comprehensive invasion, until that inexplicable storm, just like the "anti-corruption" campaign of the Enmini Empire, which was so muddled that the veneer was exposed and the cover was lifted, all of the White Tower Sky City had not received a single word, not a single message...
This is absolutely abnormal!
No matter how covert and cautious the enemy's infiltration was, it couldn't possibly have been revealed without leaving any trace. Throughout the Zoroastrian Empire, hundreds of millions of mortals, tens of thousands of spellcasters, and those under their influence could have noticed and reported it, yet nothing was done from beginning to end, not a single warning was raised. It couldn't be that the enemy was too powerful, it was most likely...
The enemy has an insider!
It’s right above the Sky City, right at the Nine-Ring White Tower, or even right here, at the Supreme Council!
Someone is secretly communicating with the remnants of the old times, plotting a rebellion and restoring the tyranny of the Witch King!
This possibility was so terrifying that the mages who heard the report were at a loss. Finally, the Grand Secretaries of the Nine Rings Inner Sect ordered everyone to keep silent and forbid discussion of the matter. Anyone who violated the order would be exiled to the Endless Sea Observatory for ten years, regardless of their status. Only then did this prevent the discussion from occurring at the venue.
Chapter 428
But this matter is just like those conspiracy theories that believed that there were "unknown factors" and "foreign forces" in the rise of Rome. Logically speaking, it is not impossible. On the contrary, there is a high probability that it is true. After all, more than 3,200 years have passed since the Witch King was expelled, and never once has the enemy made such a strange and huge show of force.
Put yourself in their shoes and think about it. If they were once gods but were demoted to dust, and exiled from the rich world of Il to a "land of nothingness", according to the intelligence detected by the mages, the place where the exiles are located is a small "nothingness" world, which may be less than eleven times the size of the world of Il.
The reason why it is described as nothingness is that there is really nothing in that world except water, soil and air. It is like an unfinished product pieced together from the scraps that fell off when the world was born.
The rules inside are chaotic. Sometimes there will be torrential rain and tsunamis rolling up the clouds. Sometimes the temperature will suddenly rise, as if lava is everywhere...
