Chapter 457 – Banditry and Poisoning the Fields
Translated by: Berrrybunz
Edited by: TN and DeAndreR
Cetus Constellation.
Inside the palace, it was a show of happiness and prosperity, there were many distinguished guests inside, with beautiful women filling the place.
But the most discussed topic inside the banquet was the war on Ursa Major Constellation. It was the first war instigated By Cetus Constellation after so many years. In the first few days, everyone was still harboring nervousness. But very quickly, the expansion of the war immediately caused everyone's thoughts to become excited.
Other than The Blue Whale Army being stopped, their speed becoming slower, the White Whale Army and Black Whale Army were irresistible forces continuously taking over many planets.
In the blink of an eye, close to half of the planets in the entire Ursa Major Constellation were being occupied. In Cetus Constellation, such victories caused them to be roused with excitement.
Inside the area where all the young aristocratic family disciples were in, it was rare for them to not be focusing on the beautiful women, but all pa.s.sionately discussing if they should be bringing along their bodyguards to earn some military achievements at Ursa Major Constellation.
With military achievements it meant a good future, why would they be afraid of not having beautiful women with them when they made it big?
All the aristocratic disciples were all discussing amongst themselves, giving each other insider information on what they knew.
"Congratulations, your majesty!" A white robed old man smiled while giving his regards towards Gong Qing.
Gong QIng laughed reservedly. Although he was over 60 years of age, but he looked to be only around 40, looking young with vigor, his bearing was scholarly as he half rose out of his seat to return the greeting: "I have to thank Elder Zhang, without your reports, who would know, Ursa Major Constellation was all a bravado and was actually very weak."
Elder Zhang laughed: "Tang Tian this person, although he is very rampant, he truly has some abilities, but when things reach to an extreme, they can only move in the opposite direction, he is currently flushed with success, and is not as cautious as he is used to be, and has thus become our perfect chance."
Gong Qing sipped a bit of red wine: "Does Elder Zhang have any thoughts on Three Spirits City? If we do not take action now, won't it be taking it easy on them?"
Elder Zhang replied: "Three Spirits City is currently like a delicious cake, if there are people wanting to eat it, there are also people wanting to destroy it."
Gong QIng was slightly surprised, he slowly tried to unriddle the words, and exposed a smile afterwards: "Seems like i was overthinking it."
"Ursa Major Constellation, half of it is already in Your Majesty's hands, with the merger of the two constellations, Cetus Constellation would become an ecliptic palace grade constellation." Elder Zhang congratulated.
Gong qing was happy, but his face maintained a calm look: "It is still too early to say that. Right, what's the situation at Orion Constellation? Are there any recent movements from Leo Constellation?"
Elder Zhang's face congealed slightly, and said: "It truly is taking the mountain with an inch of blood. Tang Tian was so lucky, Yan Yong Lie had thrown his men to Orion Constellation, so he completely did not have to spend any effort. Us on the other hand, are not having it that well at Orion Constellation. But the situation is fine, just that our loss is slightly large. But, we have new support!"
Gong Qing was taken aback: "I wonder who that is?"
Elder Zhang shook his head: "I apologize your Majesty, but i cannot reveal who it is yet."
Gong Qing did not care, and only smiled while raising his wine cup: "Our allies are getting more and more, shows how popular Honorable Martial Group is! Elder, do not worry, after taking over Ursa Major Constellation, we will then pour our support to support the Martial Group to fight Orion Constellation."
Both of them laughed, toasting to each other.
Three Spirits City.
Bing amiably stood on the stage of the blood meridians workshop, displaying his pa.s.sionate speech.
"……so, the crucial point of this battle, i will have to request to all of you! Only if all of you produce sufficient effective poisons, can we preserve our position in the battlefield…."
The old timers of the blood meridians workshop of Three Spirits City were all boiling with excitement, as though they were on drugs. All of the blood meridians specialists all had only one feeling, to blow off the steam!
Every single blood meridians specialist only had a b.e.a.s.t.i.a.l thought: It is finally our turn!
The chance has finally reached us!
The neighbours next door are just a group of animals, selling their trash for 500 billion star coins, in a moment crus.h.i.+ng our achievements to practically zero…..
To be in the shadows of the ironware p.u.s.s.ies, the humiliation and grief we have suffered!
To obtain the chance to perform with so much difficulty, how could everyone not give it their all?
A pile of different kinds of poisonous substances piled up like a mountain in the blink of eye.
Tang Chou stood by Bing's side, coldly glancing at them: "As a military general, to use such a despicable and vulgar strategy, it really is disdainful!"
"Little Chou Chou, don't be like that." Bing laughed as he flicked the cigarette ash: "Do you know what is the most favourite thing i like about this generation? It is that everyone here does not know that i am a famous general! Ha ha finally, i can do whatever i want!"
Tang Chou replied coldly: "Shouldn't a famous general be reserved and not be arrogant and be sincere in times of war? Master, please conduct yourself with dignity!"
Bing laughed out loud, placing a hand on Tang Chou's shoulder, another waving his cigarette in the air: "Don't be a spoilsport, be human, the most important thing is to be flexible. Only by being flexible, can you truly be on the road to be victory….."
Tang Chou interrupted Bing's words: "Be human? Master, please remember that you are a spirit general."
Bing turned sluggish, but then laughed out again: "Ah haha, Little Chou Chou you are becoming more and more humorous, and that is a good thing! Relax relax, we will win very soon."
"Although my superiors are already rotting and degrading, but my pursuit towards the road of a famous general, will never change!" Tang Chou said out unhappily, and walked away.
"Rotting and degrading…." Bing's eyes widened, he could not believe his ears and remained stunned for a while before shouting towards Tang Chou's back view: "Hey, come back here! You better explain to me whats rotting and degrading!"
Seeing Tang Chou disappearing, Bing laughed silently, taking a deep breath of the cigarette, and then muttering: "that brat has a bit of skill and wants to rebel, sigh, it sure isn't easy to be a parent. These kind of brats, can only be taught by Crazy Tang! Sigh, this is such a good method, i truly am too wretched…..no, too much of a genius!"
How many was 1 million people?
No one knew about it better than Fu Yan, his face was so gloomy that it looked like it could squeeze out 2 kg of water. The idea to refuse Tang Tian entry to Cetus Constellation was from him. When Tang Tian seized Ursa Major Constellation, one could imagine his mood. Thus, he was the most proactive in the campaign.
But….
When he saw the figures disappearing into the forest ahead, and the strange green color emerging from the water source ahead, rage gushed out, burning to the point his liver was in pain!
They could not turn back, he also knew that the soldiers behind him would definitely not be as miserable as the green water ahead of them.
How many days has it been?
Ever since they started fighting five days ago, they have started to meet with various sorts of hara.s.sments, attacks, and even poison!
The other party came and went like the wind, the 300 to 500 men, Fu Yan almost thought that he had entered a bandit's den, no, that was wrong, the place had completely turned into a holy land for bandits!
The number of bandits were numerous to the extent that it could cause hairs to stand,and the bandits' despicable tricks, were even more sly!
All the water sources were all poisoned. For the stronger martial artists, they could use their True Power to protect their meridians, but the ordinary martial artists were unable to do so. The army was allocated with expert blood meridians specialists who were good with poison, but, there were too many different type of poisons, and even the blood meridian experts were poisoned, so they had no choice but to call for a halt.
From the start, Fu Yan originally wanted to clean up all the bandits. But, he quickly realised that as long as he sent out a few people to handle it, they would all be killed. If he sent more, they would run. Fu Yan had no choice but to send his experts in, wanting to wipe them all out. At the start, it looked as though the experts were like eagles catching chicks, sweeping everything that were in their paths, causing Fu Yan to be excited. But after that, the experts that flew into the sky, bursting through the clouds, would all fall head down first into the sand, smashed into pulps.
After that, the experts of the army did not dare to take action.
They took one step at a time, becoming extremely careful. Anything could suddenly appear out from the ground, so from what it was worth, they were depending on luck. The army already had over 20 people with broken legs, some affected by poisons, some broken by mechanisms, some exploded from the destructive beasts….
Although the death and injury count was not much, but the impact on their morale was immense.
The green murky swamps in front of them caused everyone to stop. At the start, whenever they met with such swamps, they would fly over them, as it was very easy flying over using light body techniques. But there was once, when a small group flew above the swamp, but suddenly they would fall like dumplings dropping into soup, and in a few minutes, bones would surface.
After that, no one dared to treat the swamps lightly.
The swamp seems slightly huge….
Fu Yan turned to look at everyone. All of them revealing green and fatigued faces. The a.s.sholes did not allow any of them to sleep. Whenever they set camp, there would be a large arrow rain with considerable strength and extremely accurate. After being hara.s.sed for a few nights, everyone was finally used to it, using their s.h.i.+elds above them to sleep. Alright, just treat it as rain.
In the end, in one of the arrow rains, there were poison sacks mixed within, although the martial artists on guard were able to block majority of them, but there were two sacks that dropped into the camp, killing 30 odd people.
No one dared to sleep after that.
They were all elites, all of them at the eighth level of strength. Not sleeping for a few days was negligible, and they could endure! But after five days, Fu Yan finally knew the meaning that people were iron, sleep was steel….
(TN: meaning that sleep > humans)
More importantly, under the circ.u.mstance of being fatigued and taut, they still had to endure the a.s.sholes who were constantly hurling verbal abuse and ridicule day and night – ridicule from a group of sixth level farts!
There were already four cases where the martial artists lost their minds and injured six other teammates.
Fu Yan was on the verge of crying, he had never met such a situation, such despicable, such vulgar and such shameless opponents.
He looked far out, and suddenly thought that the distance to Bear Egg, was so far!
"Stop! We will camp here, stay clear of the water! We will split into two groups, one to rest, the other to guard. Under no circ.u.mstances should you all engage in battle!" Fu Yan still had strength, but he knew, if the soldiers under him did not rest, a mutiny would most probably occur. Their current situation was ideal, with a distance of at least 10 li away from the forest, a radius of 6 li around them as plain ground, everything was visible and there were no way to hide anybody.
All the soldiers all heaved a sigh of relief, finally, they were able to sleep in peace.
Fu Yan felt that the only way to continue was to ask for help from the Master, and to ask for help from Honorable Martial Group.
They will have a way right…..
Fu Yan was not sure.
Chapter 458 – The Respective Speeches
Translated by: Berrrybunz
Edited by: TN and DeAndreR
Fu Yan's cry for help reached Cetus Constellation, and at the same time, Black Whale Army was also seeking help.
The report caused an uproar, no one expected that Ursa Major Constellation would be so shameless, to use such despicable and underhanded methods. Tang Tian's previous fights were all straight on and direct battles, causing people to admire his bravery. But the current fight, immediately caused the winds to turn direction.
"This also means Ursa Major Constellation is at a dead end, and have exhausted their abilities! They have no other way of stopping us, Brave soldiers of Cetus Constellation, victory is just ahead, as long as we just have one more large push, Ursa Major Constellation is ours! Any brave heroes that break new grounds for Cetus Constellation, will receive a fair reward! They are attempting to use bandits to stop us, but they do not know, those lowly Lupus Bandits, will only become the grindstones for our Cetus Martial Artists! Our ally, Honorable Martial Group, will be sending out powerful blood meridians specialist to aid us in victory! I will now issue a reward, any Lupus Martial Artist's head obtained will be rewarded with 10 thousand star coins! My brave soldiers of Cetus Constellation, what are all of you waiting for?"
Gong Qing's speech was a morale booster, causing every Cetus Martial artists to have light in their eyes. Lupus Bandits? They are martial artists rumored to be birthed from a poor and barren land with 1% star power concentration, further, 10 thousand star coins bounty!
That immediately made many of the not well to do martial artists become eager, that's right, their strengths were ordinary, but compared to the cannon fodder Lupus Constellation, they were much stronger!
And with the blood meridians specialist group sent by Honorable Martial Group, everyone was set.
Cetus Constellation was boiling with excitement.
Gong Qing, finished with his speech, drank water to moisten his throat.
Elder Zhang praised: "Your Majesty's speech, was truly spectacular! 10 thousand star coins for one head, that is truly a wise and farsighted idea, only your majesty could think of that! With only 10 billion star coins, to get rid of 1 million lupus martial artists, I truly am convinced by you."
Gong Qing was feeling pleased, and exposed a reserved smile: "He wants to play the number tactics with me, we can only accompany them. Who knows, if the Lupus Race will be exterminated, it really makes me feel somewhat difficult."
"Your majesty truly is kind and benevolent!" Elder Zhang immediately praised.
"The matter of the blood meridians specialists, I will have to plead Elder Zhang for your hard work!" Gong Qing said.
Elder Zhang immediately replied: "Rest easy Your Majesty, the Martial Group's blood meridians specialist group has already set out. These are the Martial Group's highly experienced blood meridians experts, their strength is unparalleled!"
Gong Qing exposed a smile: "Then I can rest easy."
Three Spirits City.
"I only managed to recruit these people." Bell said, somewhat helplessly.
Tang Chou glanced at the martial artists behind Bell, roughly 40 men, all of them exposing their qi and strength, all of them unfathomable. The current world was in chaos, and the martial artists' positions were also developing according to the situation. More importantly, it was very difficult to recruit, as there were many rich people in recent years, and as long as you had the ability, people would be able to afford no matter how expensive it was.
The bases' defense was always a problem. Although they had set up layers of mechanisms, and with troops garrisoned inside the base, but against experts, they were still having a problem. If not for Tang Yi managing to arrive in the nick of time, they would have had to suffer a bitter battle.
Due to that, Tang Chou's proposed submission to reorganize the bases' defense was quickly pa.s.sed through. The current Three Spirits City's importance was very obvious, and although there were many martial artists in Three Spirits City, the majority of them were mechanical martial artists. In the past years, the mechanical martial artists were all weaker, and even with the increase in strength after forming the army, facing against the experts, it was still difficult.
Everyone thought, that they needed a stronger defense, and recruiting was handed over to Bell.
Bell who was in charge of intelligence had a vast network of friends, and even used her intelligence channels, but after all of those, she still only managed to recruit 40 people.
"They are all famous Heaven's Road List martial artists, but no Gold Ranked Martial Artists. Very few of the Gold Rank Martial Artists are free now. Within the 40 people, there are 13 ranked between 4000 to 6000, and the remaining 27 are all ranked after 6000. This is all their information, I will hand over the rest to you."
Bell pa.s.sed the martial artists information to Tang Chou, in which he politely thanked her.
Bell looked at Tang Chou in a weird way, as an intelligence person, she was very sensitive to changes, and could roughly feel that Tang Chou had some substantial change, although Tang Chou was always very polite.
Did something happen to him….
That thought quickly fleeted past her mind, but she did not ponder too much about it. Tang Chou was a bookworm to her, completely unlike a military general, daily giving lessons to the mechanical martial artists, doing things in which military generals should not be doing.
Master Bing said that Tang Chou was a Staff Officer type military leader, could all staff officer type military leaders be like that? But Pi Pa had praised Tang Chou before, although the two of them were more frequently fighting.
If Tang Chou became strong, that would be a good thing. Although currently, all the dangers faced by the base were relatively weak, but it still caused Bell to worry. Especially that Three Spirits CIty was getting more and more important, and the different types of groups of people that Three Spirits City was involved with were quickly increasing.
Three Spirits City was like a delicious cake, everyone wanted a taste of it, although in the eyes of Heaven's Road, Three Spirits City's strength was not considered strong.
Bell had always been paying attention in secret, so when Tang Chou's proposal was pa.s.sed, Bell quickly took action, and was able to recruit 20 strong martial artists in the short span of time.
During the period, to be able to recruit strong martial artists in a short span of time was outstanding. Of course, the salary of the experts were astronomical as well. All of their' settling down fee was already over 1 billion, 20 people meant 20 billion. But it was relatively safe as the current Three Spirits City was also considered a small tyrant.
"Please follow me."
Tang Chou did not look at the materials in his hands and led the way. Bell was curious on how Tang Chou was going to instruct the martial artists, so she followed along.
The martial artists did not display arrogance, even when their professional achievements were rather accomplished. More importantly, before arriving, Bell had let them watch the videos of the battles with Flowing Wind Group, and even told them, the one leading the army was Tang Chou.
Flowing Wind Group's name and prestige was well known, and this caused the martial artists to look up to Tang Chou.
Tang Chou brought them to the training grounds and started to conduct extremely complicated and meticulous tests. The tests were all varied, many of them never heard of before, allowing the martial artists to be interested, and they all completed every test with piqued interest.
Very quickly, Tang Chou allowed them to directly observe and feel his ability.
"Xu Lei, your most proficient attacking area, is at your right side, the area between 2m to 10m further than arm length. Your primary attack is of 75%, and you're accustomed to this area. Your style of releasing might, has a probability of 83% striking this area. And your left rib and below is your weakness."
"w.a.n.g Bo, your rod technique is very severe, but your problem is that as long as you are consecutively beaten for more than 6 times, your rhythm starts to become erratic. And the lapse between your rod techniques has an obvious halt, which becomes your weakness, and your lower plate is too low, although it allows your center of gravity to be more stable, but it restricts your attacking area."
Bell could clearly see that every martial artist all had an uncomfortable look on their faces, a few of them even perspiring in cold sweat, tightly holding onto their weapons. Bell was very surprised, could it be that Tang Chou actually saw through each and every one of the martial artists through the tests?
She felt that it was too inconceivable, as in her eyes, the tests were all messy and random, and she could not understand their usage at all.
Tang Chou's point by point commentaries completely shocked the martial artists.
Martial artists who were able to train to where they were, how could they be dumb?
They were initially shocked and angry, shocked by the fact that Tang Chou saw through them completely. Angry by the fact that their weaknesses were all publicly announced, causing them to feel danger.
Tang Chou knew what they were thinking, and one sentence from him immediately caused them to quieten them.
"Every single one of you has already signed the martial spirit contract, from today onwards, all of you are teammates. It is much more important for your teammates to understand your weaknesses than for them to know your advantages. Because your front mate can determine your life and death, and your back mate can help bring forth your victory."
After signing the martial spirit contract, there was no possibility of them backing out and betraying, so the eyes of the martial artists immediately became more warm.
"For the sake of achieving better battle results, we need to test out an entirely different grouping, and even need to formulate a corresponding strategy."
Tang Chou's voice was very calm, and even giving off a convincing power.
All of the Heaven's Road List martial artists stood in front of him listening like obedient students.
He….seems to have truly become even more powerful…..
Bell looked at Tang Chou, pondering deeply.
In the blood meridians workshop, Bing's idle and frivolous speech resonated, causing hearty laughters from time to time.
"He he, blood meridians specialists group oh! Honorable Martial Group's most experienced blood meridians specialists, listening to that news, I almost became stupid. After that, I suddenly came to my senses, eh, they seem to be from Honorable Martial Group….eh, does Honorable Martial Group have blood meridians specialists? Eh, Honorable Martial Group actually wants to compare with our blood meridians experts….so terrifying!"
"Hahahaha!"
The old men and old timers below were all laughing wildly thoughtlessly. The majority of them came from Onyx Soul, and upon hearing that Honorable Martial Group actually wanted to compete with them as blood meridians specialists and poison, they were ecstatic.
"I truly do not discriminate against the Honorable Martial Group, really!"
"But if we really let their blood meridians specialists survive, that truly is embarra.s.sing, hey hey, I am not stirring anything, but, if you want me to endure it, I truly am unable to…"
"Kill them!" Someone shouted out loud.
The beasts stirring and getting restless in their hearts, all started to emerge, they started to scream, their faces sinister, killing intent soaring!
"KILL THEM ALL!"
