LAZARUS REGULUS
311 Chapter. Border Northern and Central Region Cerulean Forest.
300 Epic Beasts Four-Tusked Black Elephant. The herd of Beast elephants with black skin and 4 large tusks near its trunk were domineering and striking. They have a height and length of 1.5 times larger than ordinary elephant Beast, which is 7 meters high and 12 meters long.
A White Elephant Ancient Emperor Mythical Beast with white skin, a pair of large tusks and a size of 17 meters high and 28 meters long led the herd of elephants.
"Lord White Tusk, we have to stop here." A burly man, brown-skinned, long silver-haired and golden-eyed said.
The elephant beast stopped at the place ordered by the man, then the man jumped off the elephant's back and took out an Artifact shaped like a metal ball engraved with many ancient runes.
"Absolute Barrier!" The man shouted.
The orb artifact sucked mana around the Cerulean Forest, then slowly floated above the Cerulean Forest and created a protective covering of the Cerulean Forest from the outside world.
"Prince Victor, is that Artifact a second-century Mythical Rank Artifact?" A black-robed man asked.
"Black Moon, the Artifact's name is Absolute Barrier Pearl. Although the Artifact was a Mythical Rank Artifact, but this Artifact was equivalent to a Rank King Artifact." Victor smile.
"Would this Barrier Artifact be able to lock up everyone and Beasts in the Cerulean Forest?" Black Moon asked doubtfully.
"Haha. This artifact sucks mana from the Cerulean Forest to serve as a Barrier, so we don't use the Beast Core, Mana Stone and Mana Crystal as the source of energy where these Artifacts are. Inside the legend my ancestors were able to lock up 35 Beast Kings from within. But this artifact has some shortcomings, namely Barrier Artifacts will be very weak when used in areas that have a thin mana energy, which is very weak, This artifact is like a double-edged sword because if it is attacked from outside this artifact could be destroyed and lastly if someone knows of its existence and destroys it, then the Barrier will be destroyed." Victor explains.
"Wait on! The Cerulean Forest had abundant mana energy, meaning the Barrier created by this Artifact would be extremely powerful." Black Moon said.
"Black Moon, order some strong men to guard and protect this Artifact." Victor says.
"According to your orders, Prince Victor." Black Moon kneeled.
...****************...
Victor rode White Tusk to return to the main force, where he saw people preparing for war to attack the eastern region of the Cerulean Forest.
"Prince Victor, I want to report something." Anna says.
"Black Mage Anna, what do you want to report?" Victor stared at Anna as if looking into the depths of Anna's soul.
"This pressure was different from the third Prince Islwyn Silver Phoenix. Fifth Prince Victor Silver Phoenix has more power than Third Prince Islwyn Silver Phoenix, "Anna's inner self.
"I'm sorry for letting out a little bit of my aura. All right, we'll talk about it at my place and I'd like to hear valuable information from you." Victor says.
The Silver Phoenix Empire had 9 Princes and Daughters. They were known as the 7 Pillars of the Silver Phoenix Empire. The Crown Prince was the strongest, while the third Prince Islwyn was the weakest. Victor came in seventh on the basis of strength and support.
The Crown Prince of the Silver Phoenix Empire was said to possess strength surpassing that of the Golden King. 200 Years ago the Imperial Crown Prince Zephyra Kyros Zephyra and the Crown Prince of the Silver Phoenix Empire fought one-on-one and ended the series.
"Anna, what do you want to report?" Victor asked.
"Prince Victor, Prince Islwyn is dead in the Cerulean Valley of the West region of the Cerulean Forest." Anna answered.
"Haha. Is my stupid brother dead? I don't care if Islwyn dies because he's so weak and one day he'll die too. Isn't it nice that Islwyn died? I lost one contender in the race for the throne and Islwyn's fortune will be distributed to his 8 other brothers." Victor laughed out loud.
Anna's face slowly turned pale upon hearing Victor's reply. Anna feels Victor has no conscience when it's good to hear his brother die.
"Anna, did you bring Islwyn's body?" Victor asked.
"Cloud, Grand bring Prince Islwyn's body here!" Anna exclaims.
A moment later Cloud and Grand carried Islwyn's body which was not intact because it was torn apart by the Beast into Victor's room.
"Sister, I've said to stay in the main force. I promised Father and the silver fox not to kill you in this task. But you are so stupid, for the sake of getting compliments, gifts and titles you go to the Western region to hunt." Victor said, then took out a gold-colored bracelet-shaped storage artifact from Islwyn's hand.
Victor took out a white Coffin Artifact, then put Islwyn's corpse into it.
"Anna, do you have any other information?" Victor asked.
"Prince Victor, I think that within the main army there is a traitor." Anna says.
"What do you mean?"
"Me and Grand saw members of the alliance army attacking the other alliance forces. This alliance was formed not out of loyalty, but rather a mutually beneficial relationship with each other. There were no vows and contracts regarding the formation of this alliance, the Nebula Kingdom, Black Crow Empire, Black Scorpion Orchid Organization, Kingdoms/Empire and other Great Powers had their own goals." Anna says.
"Prince Victor, my men betrayed me and left me alone in a gravely wounded state, having attacked the forces that had already massacred the alliance army. Me and my group have known each other for decades and fought together, but they dared to betray me. Moreover, an Alliance army that had only formed in a few months could have fought each other?" Cloud asked.
"Prince Victor, I think that the leader of the Kingdom/Empire and the other great Powers have their own purposes. They were old people who had lived since the fifth, fourth and third ages. I thought they made you a leader on the grounds that you were a young man with a lack of experience. If this plan to conquer the Cerulean Forest fails, then they will make you a scapegoat as a reason for failure. On the contrary, when this goal is achieved, they will draw out your sword and your weapon to seize all that you have gained." A green-haired Marcenary man with a scar on his right cheek said.
"Prince Victor, please forgive me. However, this Cerulean Forest has no mouth and no eyes. Even if a Prince, King or Emperor dies. Unlike the Empire, the Kingdom and the Great Power that have laws. Forests are lawless territory." Cloud says.
Victor stared at the short-haired brown female servant and the green eyes standing beside him.
"Anna, Cloud, Grand, thank you for giving me such valuable information. I will award each of you 10 Million Gold Coins and I will be more careful to those old dogs. Do they think I'm a fool like Islwyn that they can take advantage of? They had not known that inside my body was flowing the blood of the Emperor of the Silver Phoenix Empire." Victor smiled broadly.
Anna, Cloud and Grand bid farewell to Victor back to the main force. While the maid Grand Lucy issued a lie detector scales Artifact.
"Lucy, are they telling the truth?" Victor asked.
"Your Majesty, they're telling the truth." Lucy answered.
"When they lie and try to instigate me. Perhaps I've decapitated the three of them and given his body to the wild Beast's food!" Victor yelling.
Lazarus had previously told Anna, Cloud and Grand to trick the Eye Of True Skill and the Lie-detecting Artifacts.The first 3 ways were to tell the truth, to be honest, the second way is to mix lies with honesty and the last way to use Artifacts/Skill counter Artifacts/Skill lie detector.
The three of them spoke truthfully without exaggerating what was happening, within the Alliance army there was indeed a traitor. Anna, Cloud and Grand were traitors as well as the other 300 people their goal was to spread information that caused doubt among the alliance forces.
So that all the alliance troops were wary of each other. They would feel like storing a wild tiger Beast near them that could one day pounce on them.
A black-robed person with sun embroidery and a Silver Phoenix entered Victor's room.
"Silver Moon, do you have any information?" Victor asked.
"Baldie, we've finished the rats that attacked our army. They were the Imperial aid troops of Zephyra and Darkness Fang along with the Beast herd would attack the alliance army after the battle ended." Silver Moon replied.
"Haha. Wild beasts looked more honest than humans and Demons. Silver Moon beware of the other members of the alliance army. They're gonna stab us in the back." Victor laughed out loud.
"Your Majesty, I have also come to realize that the Black Scorpion Orchid Organization Leader has certain intentions of agreeing to make an Alliance with us and the others. But you seemed to have realized it before I told you." Silver Moon smiled subtly.
"Well, we'll bite them first before they bite us. A dog that bites its Master must be killed." Victor says.
It was seen that a large army of humanoid races and Beasts went to the eastern region of the Cerulean Forest. This battle will be very long and many casualties will fall on both sides.
Black Cloud stared from the top of the highest mountain. "Absolute Domain? Wasn't this Artifact one of the Artifacts the Golden King possessed? It seems that the eastern region will be very turbulent in a few months." Inner Black Cloud.
"Siiiii." A snake with rainbow-like scales and a golden rhinoceros beetle went towards Black Cloud.
"Lord Black Cloud, Master sent you a letter." Rainbow said.
...****************...
Forest Dark Hero Melida, Thunder King Leonidas and Fire King Apollo bailed to the Lazarus group.
"Those three bastards will join this war as payment in breach of contract." Reiga mutters.
"Deandra, Hogni and Reiga you have to hold them back when the war happens. Fight as if they were training because they wouldn't hurt our group." Lazarus says.
"We understand."
"Julian bring the others here!" Lazarus says.
Julian and the others went to Soldrake's lair, where more than 7000 people of different races and ranks gathered around Lazarus.
"Urs, it looks like they've moved to attack the eastern region of the Cerulean Forest. Do we have to help the herd of wild Qilin Beasts and Beast Beasts that are there?" Julian asked.
"Stupid! The number of humanoid troops was 70,000 with the Beast probably their troops around 180-200 Thousand. If we go to war to help the Qilin Beast with 7000 people, then almost 3/4 of our members will die!" Lazarus says.
"Urs, aren't the swarms of Qilin Beasts and Beasts in the eastern region going to fight with us?" Hector asked.
Lazarus looked at Hector. "Stupid! Didn't you know that they are wild Beasts? Not like Emerald, Linwood, Little Gold, Feira and Emerald. Not just to the humanoid race, they would attack other unknown Beasts entering their territory."
Hector and the others were shocked. "I forgot about it because we've always been close to wild Beasts. I don't think of them as Beasts."
"Sad. Beastman, if Urs isn't here I'll kill you all, too." The Silver Dragon Soldrake said.
Carissa, Alcander and Alastair gazed towards the Black Dragon King Magna, they recalled about Melanthios. But the Black Dragon before them was a Pure Black Dragon male even Crossbreed Black Dragon.
"Are you the brother of Black Dragon Melanthios?" Alastair asked.
"I am the Father of the Black Dragon Melanthios." The Black Dragon Magna replied.
"Wait, did you find out Dad killed your daughter?" Alastair asked.
"Haha. Remember I am the Beast Melanthios and Urs is fighting fair. I have 12 children and 3 of them were killed in the fight." Magna laughing.
"Wait, why don't you take revenge?" Carissa asked.
"Have you not known the familial relationship between the Beasts was just some kind of relationship. Many high-ranking Beasts were concerned about his family and some did not care about his family. I've also received the memory of Melanthios' legacy before her death." Magna stood up and stared intently at Lazarus.
"Magna, what are you doing?" Soldrake growled in fear that Magna might attack Lazarus.
Reiga and Galan immediately took out their weapon Artifacts to withstand the attack of the Black Dragon King Magna.
"Urs, you should have died in the Eternal Poison Forest with my daughter Black Dragon Melanthios. Why are you still alive?" The Black Dragon King Magna asked.
"I'm dead, but I came back to life 30 years later." Lazarus answered.
Everyone was shocked to hear Lazarus answer. But Jino immediately approached Lazarus.
"Are you given the Vampire Virgin Secret Heart from one of the Vampire ancestors before you die?" Jino asked.
"When I was little, I was dying from fighting with a Demon Beast Black Wolf. I have a friend of a little golden-haired girl named Amara. He bit me as I was dying to turn me into a Vampire, but I didn't turn into a Vampire unless I got a Rank A Regeneration Skill." Lazarus says.
Jino held Lazarus' shoulder. "Are you the little boy Amara always talks about? He even gave half his heart to you!" Jino stared at Lazarus.
"Jino, what's your relationship with Claire and Amara?" Lazarus asked.
"Urs, even though I'm 5 levels lower. I was the father of Amara and Claire the previous leader of the Red Moon Clan." Jino says.
"Are you hurt?"
"I was seriously injured and went to the Cerulean Forest to look for the Herbal Eternal Blue Lily." Lazarus says.
"Urs, a Vampire girl who has given half her heart will never have another partner! Just like Acasha couldn't remarry after Lucius died!" Jino yells.
"What do you mean?"
"You have to take responsibility!"
"Yes??"
...****************...
Dozens of Divine Beasts and several Gods were sitting in a magnificent white-colored room. They look very angry about something.
A Gold Dragon with a size of 5 meters carried a long black haired woman and black eyes.
"Hestia, do you know your mistake!" The God of Life Gail shouted.
"Gail, I didn't do anything wrong!" Hestia answered.
"Artemis, give him proof of his guilt!" Gail yelling.
Artemis brought a sheet. "Hestia has been down to Planet Antares 2 times, she is interested in a man named Grand Duke Lazarus Regulus who is a reincarnation *****First Hestia gives ****** ***** it was black-colored made from the skin of the Saint Beast Black Dragon which was a Rank King Artifact after he got up. Second he descended to Planet Antares again as Lazarus Regulus fought with Empress Lilith. He bribed the God of Cronos with a hundred Divine Of Wine just so Vanargand Fenrir saw and reported it, so we all know it."
Hestia, Cronos, Surt and all the Gods stared intently at the Divine Beast Fenrir, Vanargand Fenrir.
"I'm sorry!"
"Hestia, do you admit it?"
"Sad... All right, give me my punishment!" Hestia yells.
"Hestia, will be locked up in prison and her powers will be sealed based on an undetermined time!" Gail says.
"Whataa!! How can you seal my power! I only helped him a little to get through this tribulation! You guys must want to see him sitting with us and charging into Thanatos Fort!" Hestia yells.
"Bahamut immediately send him to jail!" Gail yelling.
"Haestia!! Bastard, when Thanatos' fortress found out. Aren't they going to attack him!" Gail yelling.
"Gail, do we have to interfere?" A Dragon with colorful scales asked.
"When Nyx and Electra are on our side, but they prefer to be neutral. Maybe we can defeat that Bastard Goddess! Keep an eye on the man because he is now as weak as an ant and Thanatos will definitely not notice him." Gail says.
"Nyx and Electra must have done something like divide her consciousness into 2, then as she dies in this life the trigger is active and instantly their consciousness is fused back together." Artemis says.
"We do not know because we are not almighty. Whether the universe itself or a more powerful existence does that. May this be the last life." Gail smiled.
