LAZARUS REGULUS
Chapters 297. The Ancient Mountain Turtle.
The Lazarus group continued on their way. Ren and Butter guide Lazarus' group ahead. As a Legendary Beast Ancient Golden Rhinoceros Beetle Silver Pattern, Ren was a high rank Beast that was extremely rare and valuable because it could lead the way and detect the location of valuable herbs and materials.
Now the number of Lazarus group was 30 people and Beast. Although they were from the Kingdom, the Great Power and the different races. However they had to work together to go to the place where the Beast King Mythical Beast Ancient Mountain Turtle was located in the central region of the Cerulean Forest.
"Master we've arrived." Ren says.
The Lazarus group stopped and saw a hill with many rocks and green trees on it. The hill looks like a tortoise tail and the river extends beside it.
As the ground around Lazarus moved, a moment later the shriveled black scaly head of a turtle appeared from underground. The turtle beast was extremely large, even dozens of times larger than the Red Dragon Agni. The turtle's blue eyes turned towards Lazarus' group as if looking into the depths of their souls all. Such beautiful blue eyes already know the secrets of the universe.
"Orio." The tortoise beast said in a soft voice, as soon as the flying Beasts lodged on its back were startled and flew away.
The group of Lazarus trembled at the sight of a Colossal Beast that exceeded the size of a Titan Beast. They had heard about the story of a Legendary Beast Ancient Black Turtle with a Kingdom-sized snake tail in the middle of the ocean. However, they had never seen it in person.
"Old Turtle, I'm not White King Orion. My name is Lazarus Regulus, ruler of Regulus. You can call me Urs."
"I feel nostalgic when I see your face as my best friend. Are you a descendant of Orion?" Old Turtle asked using telepathy voice to everyone because of his extremely loud voice.
"Old Turtle, I'm not a descendant of Orion. However, I will fulfill the promise that White King Orion has not yet been able to keep. You must be eager to go to Baxia's back, I just happen to be able to take you there." Lazarus answered.
"Is it true!!" Old Turtle said with excitement. Instantly the ground under everyone's feet shook as the Old Turtle wanted to stand up.
"Has anyone else reached this place?" Lazarus asked.
"Galan and 2 white-haired people were in my tail region. They say they're waiting for someone." Old Turtle replied.
"Is grandfather here!" Lazarus shouting.
Old Turtle nodded lightly, then again buried his head. "Cerulean forests are currently very dangerous. Many large armies of the humanoid race invaded the Cerulean Forest. However, an old turtle like me would not interfere in the affairs of the Cerulean Forest. Urs, you can't keep Orion's promise because I'm just as happy to see you as I was when I met Orion. My life's ending soon and I'll be dead, then fertilizer for the Cerulean Forest."
"Don't give up. I promise you that you will go to Baxia's back and have you ever taken the Herbal Transformation Fruit?" Lazarus asked.
"I am a crippled Beast I've tried to eat a lot of Herbal Transformation Fruit, but I can't turn into a human." Old Turtle replied.
"Your level is 98 Herbal Transformation Fruit Rank Legendary will not be able to turn you into a human. But the Mythical Herbal Transformation Fruit Rank and above can make you human." Lazarus says.
"Is it true?"
Lazarus nodded. Baxia could transform into human form by eating the Herbal Transformation Fruit, but why was Old Turtle unable to change.
"I will contact Baxia to send some old Beast Kings to pick you up." Lazarus says.
"Are you able to contact Saint Baxia?" Old Turtle asked.
"I think I can because I'm Baxia's representative."
"No way! How can Saint Baxia make its representative human?"
The Lazarus group noticed Lazarus and Old Turtle staring at each other with serious expressions. They knew Lazarus and Old Turtle were talking to Lazarus.
...****************...
Lazarus and the Old Turtle had already conversed, a moment later the Old Turtle submerged its head again underground.
"Dad, what are you talking about with the Old Turtle?" Alastair asked.
"Alastair is not polite to ask about one's personal affairs." Everyone replied, but they were also curious about what Lazarus and Old Turtle were talking about.
"Old Turtle told me that Grandpa Galan was waiting for us over there and I told him that there was a female Tortoise of one species with him on Baxia's back." Lazarus chuckled a little.
"Is Grandpa Buyut here?" Alastair asked.
"Ice King Galan, is in the Cerulean Forest!" Hector yelling.
Everyone was shocked to hear about the Ice King Galan being in this place. They all went to where Galan, Alcander and Carissa were.
...****************...
"Grandfather, will Lazarus be able to find us?" Carissa asked.
"Carissa, you've asked like that a hundred times! Cats have 9 lives and black cats will definitely go to our place." Alcander answered.
"Devil, when something bad happens to Lazarus. I'll cut your precious bird!" Carissa yelling.
Galan simply fell silent and sat in meditation on a large rock. He learned that Lazarus and his grandson Alastair were going to go to where they were and were walking towards them.
"Who is it!" Alcander shouted, then threw his spear Artifacts towards the lush bushes.
The sound of metal clashing sounded extremely loud. A moment later Lazarus and his group came out from behind the bushes.
"Bluff, do you want to kill me!" Lazarus shouted, then threw the spear back at Alcander.
Alcander caught the spear, then stared at Lazarus and his group. He knew Lazarus had crossed many obstacles to get here.
"Greetings Ice King! Hail Emperor Alcander Boreas!" All the members of the Lazarus group greeted Galan and Alcander.
"Lazarus!" Carissa ran towards Lazarus, then hugged him.
"Carissa, I'm fine and why did you go here? How are Iris and the others? Did they also go to the Cerulean Forest?" Lazarus asked, he was very worried about Iris and the others going to the Cerulean Forest which would be the stage of bloodshed.
"My granddaughter, they're fine and can you tell me what happened to you in the Cerulean Forest? Black Gold Prince of Black Desert Solon Empire, previous Leader of Red Moon Clan Jino Aurelia Red Moon, Twins Darkness Fenrir Knight Hali and Jaan, Storm Swordman Akira, Seventh Prince of Golden Sun Empire Feng Yun Shan, Bandit King Ares, Giant Of The East Yamato Ryota, Bloody Assasins Kaguya, Kusarigama Assasins Kumokiri, Shield Of Zephyra Levin Edmund Helmut..."
Galan widened his eyes from seeing Lazarus together with the powerful and famous people in the 4 Western Continents of Zephyra. Carissa says Lazarus only went to the Cerulean Forest with Hector, Alastair and Icarus.
"Grandfather, what a long story! I'll tell you everything what happened in the Cerulean Forest. I thought the Cerulean Forest would be the stage for bloodshed." Lazarus said with a serious expression.
"Alright, my instinct also says that the Cerulean Forest will be a very dangerous place."
"Solon, make chairs and tables using your earth element skill."
"As your orders, sir!"
"Black Cat! Why don't you make it use ice! A bastard like you dares to command someone who has a higher realm than you! Do you want Regulus to be attacked by the Black Desert Empire!" Alcander yells.
Lazarus stepped towards Alcander. "Dickhead! Solon also doesn't mind making tables and chairs! Do you know what we've all been through? We all almost died in this place!'
"Haha. Weak! We did not experience any meaningful danger while going to this region!"
"Curtain! Why do you always provoke me! Are you asking me to fight? Are you already proud of having already broken through to the Mythical realm?"
"You always provoke me! I'm older than you! I'm also your cousin and sister-in-law!"
"If you're not my sister-in-law, I've made you lie down for months in bed!"
Everyone noticed the quarrel of Lazarus and Alcander, while Alastair told all the things that happened on their way in the Cerulean Forest to Galan and Carissa. If Lazarus were not with them, they would all die.
Galan was startled when he heard Alastair's story and gave off a bloodthirsty aura. He had not expected the Silver Phoenix Empire, the Nebula Kingdom and the Black Scorpion Orchid Organization to work together to attack the high rank Beasts in the Cerulean Forest and attack all of them.
"The real reason the Silver Phoenix Empire and the Nebula Kingdom went to the Cerulean Forest was to hunt high rank Beasts and take the core. Overthrow the power of the Zephyra Empire and the Moonlight Empire to become the new ruler of the Western Continent and the Southern Continent. Allying with the Beast King Dark Abyss Tiger Darkness Fang who controlled the Northern region of the Cerulean Forest to form an army of Beasts, the, exploring the abundant resources of Herbs and Materials in the Cerulean Forest and they also spread rumors about the Herbal Eternal Blue Lily Rank Void in order for all the great Kingdoms and Empires to be lured into the Cerulean Forest, he said, then they'll kill the rat that's been attracted to the bait by the amount and power." Lazarus explained.
Everyone was surprised by Lazarus' explanation. They never thought about the conspiracy behind it all.
Magnolia is aware of something. "Urs, I and the 700 troops of the Holy Empire went to the Cerulean Forest for getting news of the Eternal Blue Lily from someone."
"Who are you referring to?"
"Third Prince of the Swallow Empire Albern Swallow. I need the Herbal Eternal Lily to heal my mother's wound The Queen of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom Cassia." Magnolia says.
"I received this rumor from Imperial Empress Moonlight Frost Shiroyasha and I don't know where she got the information from." Heracles said.
"Sister got the information about the Herbal Eternal Blue Lily from the King of the Nebula Kingdom." Akira answered .
Lazarus touched his chin. "Prince Albern, King of the Nebula Kingdom and Yun Shan where did you get this news from?"
"I got this news from Xia Jiali." Yun Shan replied.
The riddle in Lazarus' mind was neatly arranged.
"Sliced! That bastard dared to use a very despicable way by pitting against every Kingdom, Empire and Great Power. I have to investigate it deeper to find out the truth for this we have to prepare for an all-out war." Lazarus.
"Dad, what do you mean?"
"2 Weeks more war will take place in the West, East and South regions of the Cerulean Forest. You must recover your strength and get ready for all-out combat."
Everyone was stunned to hear the words of Lazarus.
"I'll be making Legendary rank Artifacts for all of you in these 2 Weeks. But how you survive depends on your strength and luck. I hope we can all get out of the Cerulean Forest alive. Alastair, Icarus, Hector after this war is over we will return to the Regulus region and look for a new training ground other than the Cerulean Forest."
"As your orders, sir!"
