Chapter 1193: The Wise King of African Beasts
After sacrificing nearly hundreds of people, Cu Chulainn and his men crossed the beast tide and stopped in a relatively safe place.
"Damn it, what the hell is going on in this crappy place!"
Cu Chulainn grumbled in dissatisfaction. He had agreed to be the vanguard, lead the way, and set up a large camp to fight Rome.
"It's no surprise that something strange must have happened in Africa. Just looking at the thickness of the clouds, you can tell that this is definitely not normal!" Xun Wei sighed.
"Rome is really fun!" Maxijo said, stroking his beard. "If these guys have tens of millions, it would be quite scary!"
If tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of African beasts reached the level of miscellaneous soldiers in terms of basic organizational ability and targeted Rome, then even if the Roman Empire won, it would suffer heavy losses. After all, the number of large beasts in Africa is currently calculated in the billions.
Of course, what is meant here is the Roman garrison in Africa. If it was the Roman army coming, they would just have to forget about this level of beast tide.
Even if there were a cloud of hundreds of thousands or even millions of large wild beasts pressing down and then launching a collective attack, the weak Eagle Flag Legion might not be able to withstand it.
But the Eagle Flag Legion is just a starter these days. The truly abnormal legions, such as the Tenth Knights and the Rose Legion, have no problem being invincible in the beast tide.
However, at that time, even a perverted legion like the Tenth Army would suffer heavy losses if it were scattered among hundreds of millions of ferocious beasts .
The pressure from the cloud of hundreds of millions of miscellaneous soldiers and ferocious beasts alone was enough to drive the Tenth back to the mortal world.
"I have already sent a message back. Some professionals should be coming later. We'll see if we can make Rome suffer some losses then." Xun Wei had a lot of bad intentions.
The main reason why the beast tide is weak is that there is no beast that can mobilize the clouds, and they basically rely entirely on cloud suppression and numbers to win.
This is also the reason why hundreds of thousands and millions of wild beasts were pressed and rubbed by the Roman garrisons.
If it were a human command, Huangfu Song with hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers would be able to crush these top legions directly.
"What should we do next?" Cu Chulainn kicked the stone in front of him and asked Xun Wei angrily.
"Let's investigate what happened." Xun Wei said after thinking for a while.
"Are you serious? It wasn't easy for us to fight our way out just now!" Cu Chulainn was shocked. Even though they crossed the beast tide, it was mainly because of the two Roman gathering places that attracted firepower.
If they really fight to the death, they might end up dying in the beast tide.
"We are heading south along the coast. Rome is being attacked. The beast tide is moving from south to north. There must be something driving them. Let's go and take a look. We must get this information as soon as possible!"
Xun Wei explained to Cu Chulainn seriously that, to be honest, he felt very bad, judging from the current situation.
This thing was not made by the Han Dynasty, nor by Rome, and Great Britain was not aware of it, so those who have the motivation and the ability only have one last option.
Kushan.
This empire has fallen into madness, and God knows what they are doing.
It was said that he was assigned to Great Britain to establish a branch, but Xun Wei was still a Han Dynasty man in his heart, so Xun Wei felt that he needed to go and take a look and then pass on the information.
Anyone can figure out who the Kushans are targeting with just their toes.
"I hope it won't be as bad as I thought!" Xun Wei thought to himself. He already had some guesses, but they still needed further verification.
"But before that, let's grab some mounts for transportation!"
Activating his spiritual talent, Xun Wei discovered a group of wildebeests not far from them.
Xun Wei's spiritual talent is wide-area reconnaissance, which is equivalent to radar scanning. It can grasp the detailed situation in an area, and its range and accuracy are even more terrifying than the Fifth Skylark.
However, his shortcomings are also quite obvious. His own mental strength is not enough, which means that his mental talent can only be used for a few minutes at most.
Moreover, there cannot be any other spiritual talents within the area being scouted, otherwise the two will interfere with each other and his mental energy consumption will be further aggravated.
It can only be used in a deserted place like this. If it were in a place like Luoyang, he would be lying on the ground the next second after his spiritual talent was activated.
This is also the reason why he keeps a low profile in the Xun family. He is totally incomparable with the perverts like Xun Yu and Xun You, although he has developed his spiritual talent to a very high level.
But his own hardware can't keep up. If he had the mental power of Chen Xi, he could directly detect the detailed situation of the Thirteen States in the Central Plains and catch up with Skynet.
Seeing that Xun Wei had made the decision, Cu Chulainn and Mescho did not object. They both knew that it was best to trust the judgment of smart people in such matters.
At the same time, they also wanted to see what had happened that caused the beast tide to undergo such a drastic change.
It’s not like there haven’t been beast tides in Great Britain, but compared to what’s happening on the African continent right now, they’re nothing.
Xun Wei had seen a similar situation in the past. The Luoyang area also suffered a large-scale beast tide at that time, but the scale was obviously not as large as that in Africa today.
It was more similar to the Australian intelligence Xun Wei had seen before.
That is, the beasts have evolved higher intelligence. If that is the case, Xun Wei would like to COS as an immortal and teach him the military command theory.
The process of conquering the wildebeest was smooth. After Cu Chulainn knocked the horse king head-on, they successfully rode on the wildebeest mounts.
"I say, this is a bit weird, how come any random herd of wildebeests has so much condensed internal energy?" Cu Chulainn rode on the wildebeest king and scanned the herd, finding it a little difficult to understand.
Among more than 30,000 wildebeests, nearly 90% of them possess internal energy, and more than 10% are above the level of condensed internal energy.
"No wonder it can condense such a terrifying cloud. It turns out that the beast tide not only has quantity but also quality?" Xun Wei calculated the extent of the beast tide according to the proportion of the wildebeest herd.
The final conclusion is that the number may be more than the Han and Roman empires combined.
After exploring for several days, Xun Wei and his team saw an incredible scene.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A group of chimpanzees are dancing in a circle, and in the center of their circle is a standing chimpanzee.
This standing gorilla is wearing a suit of armor with a distinct religious color. Next to the gorilla is an old orc.
The two seemed to be holding some kind of celebration ceremony.
"I say, we might be in real trouble!" Xun Wei discovered the problem the moment he saw the gorilla and the old orc.
"Nonsense, why do you need to say that? Use your brain to think of a solution. We should have been discovered!" A drop of cold sweat appeared on Cu Chulainn's forehead.
To his great horror, just by looking at the gorilla, he knew that he was 100% no match for the opponent.
The opponent is probably a monster on the level of Huskar in the true sense.
Come to think of it, among the billions of animals, it is reasonable for two monsters to appear...
No way, that's not reasonable at all!
Cu Chulainn wanted to curse. It was not like he had never seen boundary-breaking animals before. Both of Altria's mounts were at the boundary-breaking level and could not give him this kind of oppressive feeling.
"Uganda, it seems that hunters are targeting us!" The old orc prophet looked in the direction of Cu Chulainn and his companions and said to the gorilla.
As an orc priest, he mastered the secret art of seeing far away. The moment he sensed being spied on, he saw Cu Chulainn and the others.
"We are the hunters!" The gorilla also turned his gaze to Cu Chulainn and the others.
The sandbag-sized fist pounded his chest violently, making a sound like a war drum, and the beast that was originally crawling around instantly stood up.
The dancing chimpanzees jumped up from the ground and leaped onto the surrounding beasts. Then they made meaningless roars and beat their chests like gorillas and rushed towards Cu Chulainn and his men.
During the hammering process, clouds rose naturally.
"Uganda, you learn very quickly. It turns out that you are the most special one!" The old orc prophet smiled happily.
There are more than just one or two super ferocious beasts born on the African continent. Relying on the spirits of their ancestors and the visualization of Kushan gods and Buddhas, they have cultivated many beast kings on the African continent.
The ranking of murderers tested by Zuo Ci in the early years has long since changed. The higher the animal density, the more likely it is that special individuals will appear. After these special individuals grow up, or after being killed by other animals along the way, new beast kings will be born.
The gorilla Uganda is one of the beast kings born on the African continent. The old beastman prophet was commissioned by the Kushans to teach Uganda the visualization of gods and Buddhas.
Then the Kushans had a gorilla god named Uganda. This gorilla god relied on the relationship between the god and the believers to madly expand his power. He then used the manipulation of animals to attack the Roman Empire and increased his strength through blood sacrifices.
This method of turning people into gods was not only used by the Kushans, but also by the Han Dynasty. There was no shortage of these supernatural things in the Central Plains, especially in the Chu area at that time, where there were too many obscene sacrifices.
Bai Qi led his troops to massacre them, but was unable to completely wipe out the problem. It was not until Qin Shi Huang came to power that these guys were completely killed.
Originally, the Kushans were also very afraid of this thing, but now they have gone crazy and naturally don't care about these restrictions, nor do they consider the future. They are madly increasing their military strength and raising gods, and even stabbing Rome in places like the African continent, all for the purpose of training a large number of gods belonging to their system to follow them in fighting Rome.
Apart from anything else, it would be no problem for a gorilla with his own followers to defeat a royal guard.
After all, they have already mastered the spirits of the orcs' ancestors, the orcs' war songs, the Kushans' visualization of gods and Buddhas, and some of the deployment of troops.
The act of combining gorillas with wild beast mounts is undoubtedly an imitation of human cavalry. Apart from the temporary inability to produce talents, these gorillas are not much different from humans.
And this is just a starting point. The old prophet feels that it is only a matter of time before these apes develop talents.
If this group of gorillas can reach the level of double talents, maybe with some luck they can even rival those with three talents.
After all, basically all of Uganda's gorillas have internal energy in their bodies, and several of them even have internal energy out of their bodies. Even the mounts under their crotch have internal energy in their bodies.
Blood sacrifice is indeed the fastest way to increase strength. It only reaches this level after sacrificing millions of ferocious beasts.
Although their efficiency is not as exaggerated as that of the Red Blood Knights, they are purer. After all, compared with human thoughts, animal thoughts seem so simple.
This can be avoided by simply cutting in a specific way.
The people who developed the Red Blood Riders had considered using animals as targets for killing, but given the economic environment at the time, killing animals was not as cost-effective as killing enemies.
If an empire kills millions of livestock just to train a royal guard, the person is not just a prodigal but a complete lunatic.
Only in a wild place like Africa can one afford this kind of activity that completely disregards cost-effectiveness.
The effect is obvious. At least now Cu Chulainn and his men are being chased and have no choice but to take the lead.
What a joke, not to mention the outrageous number of people on the opposite side, even if a real fight broke out it would be quite difficult. These ferocious beasts are basically well-trained, and even if they don't have any talent, they can still fight quite well under the cloud.
In addition, there are tens of thousands of enemies on the opposite side, so running away is the best strategy. There is no reward if you win, and there is no place to cry if you lose.
"I have already passed the message back. From now on, you should pray with me for good luck!" Xun Wei spread his hands and did not care about life or death.
He has already passed the information back to Great Britain and the Han Dynasty. The rest depends on fate. If this guy is caught, he will be dead.
"Wait, it seems like they are not chasing us anymore?" Cú Chulainn began to sweat profusely on his forehead.
"It's broken!" Xun Wei's mouth twitched.
When a group of wild beasts stop and dare not continue chasing.
Then you are probably not safe, but you have just escaped from the wolf's den and fallen into the tiger's den.
Only the territory planned by a sufficiently powerful beast can make another group of powerful beasts fear it.
The beast behind them just now was no longer just powerful, and now, what they have to face in front of them is naturally not just powerful.
"Let's go. Going out is a dead end. Let's walk forward and see if there is any space to divert the disaster!" Xun Wei was covered in cold sweat.
This thing is so exciting, they are dancing on the edge of a knife, who knows what kind of monster will be in front of them.
"Ah~~~~ "
A loud roar revealed their identity, and caused the gorillas that were originally hovering on the edge to turn around and run.
"Strangers, where are you from?"
A majestic and sacred voice came down, and everyone including Cu Chulainn instantly felt the suppression from the blood, as if the other party was at the top of the food chain.
What appeared before Cu Chulainn and his men was a huge elephant. What was worse was that it was walking upright. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it the elephant man.
