The King Chapter 240

  Chapter 240 The strongest "uncle soldier"

   Leisurely days are always short. Just when Hudson was concentrating on eating melons, an embarrassing thing happened.

  When the Moxi people were full of joy and prepared to welcome the alliance reinforcements, they all ran to the Alpha Kingdom.

  The most embarrassing thing is that many teams passed by the principality, and the Mosi people mistakenly thought that they were sent by the alliance to reinforce them. The welcome banquet was all set up, but the old guys still left.

  Hudson was also one of the witnesses at the scene. The average age of the support troops passing by was 80+, and there were not a few of them over 100 years old. They were a group of "uncle soldiers".

  Even if the strength is good, each of them will not survive for a few years. It is estimated that they are all unwilling to die of old age on the bed, and want to make a last effort while still able to move.

   Even if there are still some loopholes in the rumors of the secret law of longevity, for a group of drowning people, the last straw must be grasped.

   Those who participated in this operation were not only the strong ones, some ordinary knights also mixed into the team. It is not only to fight before dying, but also to exert the last remaining heat for the family.

   It is also death, and dying on the battlefield against the orcs is much more honorable than dying at home.

   Not only did he have his posthumous name, but the enlistment mission that followed was also fulfilled incidentally.

   After all, an orc empire is not worthy of the human race's full strength, only partial mobilization is enough.

  The number of reinforcements has increased greatly, and Hudson is naturally happy. No matter what purpose these people have, as long as they go to the battlefield, they will make substantial contributions to the cause of fighting the orcs.

  Deep in his heart, Hudson suddenly didn't want to have an accident with Emperor Beamon. As long as Emperor Bimeng is still alive, the dignitaries who peep into the secret law of longevity will not stop.

  Even if he returns to his lair, the army of the Human Race Alliance will chase him all the way. Maybe the stubborn disease of the orc empire would be eradicated in one fell swoop.

   Without the orcs as the enemy, although the land in the northern border is a little barren, it is no longer a hot potato.

  It is only natural for the kingdom to take back the fallen land in the north. Even if it expands to more than a dozen provinces, it is not impossible.

  Of course, it is impossible to eat such a good thing alone.

   Either a large-scale land exchange operation, the territory of the Alpha Kingdom will move northward as a whole.

  Either a group of big forces within the Terran Alliance supported several new countries in the north and placed their own children there.

   In terms of territory, the orc empire is not small. It is larger than the combined territory of more than a dozen countries of the northern human race, almost catching up to one-third of the entire human race territory.

  Although many of the land is difficult to develop and utilize, the remaining land is enough for everyone to share.

  In the context of the bigger cake, Hudson, one of the main heroes, has a 99% probability of obtaining the earldom.

  The more I thought about it, the more feasible it became. When it came time to implement it, Hudson found out embarrassingly that he couldn't do anything now.

  In the Emerald Palace, Caesar III held a grand welcome banquet for the reinforcements from all over the mainland.

  The reinforcements from the major forces greatly exceeded the minimum number stipulated by the alliance meeting, and far exceeded Caesar III's expectations.

   As expected, it is enough to have hundreds of experts come to help. I never expected that "a rumor" would actually fool a huge team of more than 20,000 people.

   All participants, the weakest are intermediate knights/magicians. There are more than 800 earth knights and magisters, and there are even 38 sky knights and 17 great magisters.

   If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would have dared to believe that so many powerful people could be gathered at once.

   There are also legendary figures, and many powerful people are already dead in the eyes of the outside world. If it weren't for the "Secret of Longevity" involved, it is estimated that these old antiques would not show up.

   To put it bluntly, apart from a few long-lived races, there is no other force on the mainland that can produce so many masters.

  However, this is only part of the power of the human race. It can be said that the background of the overlord of the mainland is vividly reflected here.

  Although most of them are old and weak, their combat effectiveness has to be discounted, which is also a force beyond ordinary people's imagination.

   Regardless of the first cavalry or first infantry in the mainland, they are not worth mentioning in front of this "grandfather regiment".

  Maybe it is not enough to destroy the orc empire, but the strength to penetrate the Beamon imperial court is already there. With the small population of the Beamon clan alone, they can't stand the toss of these uncles.

  Warmly entertaining all the "uncles", the smile on Caesar III's face never stopped. Suddenly his expression froze, and he said with a little embarrassment: "Old ancestor, you are here too!"

  The news of the secret method of longevity was released to fool the strong to come and deal with the orcs. Others are fine, his own family is not in the category of his fooling around.

   "So many old friends are here, can I not come out to greet you? That's fine, go do your own work, don't interfere with my old friend reunion."

  The old man said angrily.

   Caesar III, who was good at observing words and expressions, instantly understood that this was a hint that he had something to talk to him after the banquet was over.

   "Then you are always free, I will go to work first."

   After speaking, Caesar III continued to shuttle through the crowd. There were hundreds of guests attending the banquet, representing hundreds of forces behind them.

  Although most of the visitors haven't had a good life for a few years, it doesn't mean that these old antiques have less voice in their own forces.

   They retreated by themselves, but their descendants still hold power. Even if he is not the boss of the faction he belongs to, he is still an important person in it.

  So many people came to the banquet together, not because of the face of Caesar III, but because everyone needs a platform to communicate with each other.

   There is no future for those who should form groups and form alliances to fight alone in this kind of group battle.

  Familiar with people everywhere, Caesar III had no choice but to. The unexpected arrival of reinforcements inevitably affected the Alpha Kingdom's strategic plan.

   Originally, Caesar III was only thinking about defense. After seeing the luxurious lineup of reinforcements, he weighed it in his heart, and suddenly found that counterattack is actually more "sweet".

  As long as the two sides cooperate well, they can definitely fight the orc army. Being able to drive the orcs back to their hometown in advance is such a big temptation, so naturally they can't miss it.

   Busy until the end of the banquet, Caesar III, dragging his exhausted body, was dragged by his ancestors to a secret room in the palace before he had time to rest.

  In his own territory, he was so careful that Caesar III's expression became serious, and his intuition told him that something big would happen next.

   "Sit down, we are all kings, there is no need to stand all the time.

   Calling you over today, I guess you have guessed a bit. Among the successive monarchs of my Alpha Kingdom, Ni boy is capable enough to rank among the top three.

   Throughout the entire continent of Aslante, there are very few monarchs who are more capable than you.

   But do you know that I just did something stupid. If it wasn't for good luck, someone would have almost caught me! "

  The old man's words made Caesar III's face change drastically. Originally, seeing so many people being fooled over, he was secretly proud of the success of the plan, but he didn't expect to leave a loophole.

   "Old ancestor, please enlighten me!"

   Caesar III hurriedly asked.

   It stands to reason that he has been very secretive about releasing rumors. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to find his head, but from what the old man said, it was obvious that he was wearing a bandage.

  Political conspiracies and calculations don't matter, but it is another matter to calculate a group of old antiques who are dying.

  Give people hope, and then cut off their hope, it will drive people crazy. A group of dying people went crazy, and the destructive power that could erupt was absolutely beyond imagination.

   "You kid did it very covertly, there was no flaw in the first place, it's a pity that it's too coincidental!

   As soon as Emperor Bimon arrived at the front line and broke through three lines of defense in a row, this rumor appeared on the mainland, and everyone had to think about it.

  Fortunately, you were lucky. Just after the rumors spread, similar rumors appeared within the Orc Empire, and some evidence was even found by major forces.

  You also know these things. It's just that under your preconceptions, you think that the secret of longevity does not exist at all, and you don't take it seriously.

   But the fact is exactly the opposite. Judging from the information collected within the Orc Empire, Emperor Beamon was pulled back from the brink of death several times.

   After each recovery, his body will return to the prime of life. Without these changes, he would have died a hundred years ago.

  There are indications that even if Emperor Bimon does not have the secret method of longevity in his hands, there is also a secret method that can prolong human life.

   It's just that this kind of secret method may have certain restrictions, or a certain price needs to be paid.

  In any case, as long as the secret method exists. For those of us old guys who are dying, it's worth taking a gamble. "

  The words of the old man changed the face of Caesar III greatly. The "secret method" actually existed, which completely refreshed his cognition.

   On the continent of Aslante, there are many ways to prolong life, but they are only effective within the scope of normal lifespan. It is difficult for ordinary people to exceed one hundred and fifty years old.

  As strong as a strong man in the sanctuary, he is only over two hundred years old. No matter how much heaven, material and earth treasures you take, you can't break through the limit of longevity.

  Of course, dark-type life-extending secrets don't count. Transforming into an undead, or becoming a lich, will greatly increase the lifespan, but it has changed the essence of life and become a new creature.

   "Old Ancestor, you mean this time..."

  The old man nodded, smiled lightly and said: "Yes, I will also participate in this operation. Not only me, but the group of old antiques in the kingdom will not miss this opportunity.

  Perhaps the secret method of prolonging life in the hands of Emperor Beamon has very strict restrictions, and it is impossible to promote it.

  But, so what?

  I know my physical condition best. If they can't break through the bottleneck of the sanctuary, even if there are no accidents, it will only happen in the past one or two years.

   Use the last of your life to fight for a chance, no matter what!

   What's more, if this battle goes smoothly, it can also lift the kingdom's crisis. Even if he died on the battlefield, he still earned money.

  I know what you want to say, but the current situation does not allow other options. If I don't participate in this operation, can others rest assured? "

  Caesar III was silent.

  The "Secret of Longevity" is involved. If the strong man of the Alpha Kingdom, who is a local snake, does not participate in the action, I am afraid everyone will not be able to help being suspicious.

  Did he really not think of these things?

  I'm afraid, not necessarily.

  As a political strongman, what Caesar III is best at is to win the greatest victory at the least cost.

  Humans are not machines after all, they have their own feelings. Calculating others doesn't matter, when it comes to his own family, Caesar III still can't be calm.

  In a sense, since he released the rumor of the "Secret of Longevity", it means that the local strongmen of the Alpha Kingdom must participate in this operation.

   His life was not long, and he had to go to the battlefield to fight the orcs. Even if he could come back, he would be carried back lying down.

  The biting cold wind howled and blew non-stop between the sky and the earth. Early in the morning, Caesar III stood at the gate of the city with a group of royal nobles to see off the reinforcements.

  Looking at the white-haired team full of vicissitudes, endless words will be together, and everything will be spoken.

   They were all forced out. For the elderly in their dying years, every day of the countdown to life is precious.

   If it takes too long, some people in the team may fall on the road ahead of time before reaching the battlefield.

  For a knight, even if he really wants to die, he must die on the battlefield. It would be too aggrieved if he died halfway.

  The mighty reinforcements set off all the way north, and soon attracted the attention of Eagle scouts. It's just that this time they were very unlucky and encountered a strong team.

  As soon as he flew above the army, he was dragged down by a violent knight, and the one who died was a miserable one.

   This is just the beginning. The army marched all the way north, and the Yingmen who were in charge of scouting along the way were the first to fall victim.

   It is useless to detect intelligence, the key is how to send the information back. When encountering this unprovoked team, Eagle scouts were taken down as soon as they showed up, purely giving away their heads.
