623 The Black Emperor and Kobolds
However, it was impossible for the foreign races to work together. No one would show their true trump cards.
After all, their clans’ safety was at stake once exposed. It was not worth giving up their background for the sake of the Human race.
Therefore, in a situation where everyone had their own apprehensions, almost no one planned to make a move.
The Eight Trigrams Demon Alchemy Array was too powerful and strange. They would need to sacrifice many clan members if they wanted to break it.
Under such a situation, not many foreign races were willing to take action. Whose life wasn’t a life? Why should their clan sacrifice their lives while others sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor? That was impossible!
“The Human race, the Kingdom of Dawn, the Lord of Dawn, Li Xiang. We have to pay more attention to the Human race in the future. Although this race is innately weak, they’ll be truly terrifying once they grow!”
“If we can’t be on bad terms, then we can only be on good terms. All kinds of rare treasures, weapons, magic treasures, and resources of the Human race have great commercial value. Our Fox race has to make a choice. If we can obtain the friendship of the Human race, we may be able to obtain astonishing benefits.”
The missy of the Fox race, Hu Ling, stood on a towering ancient tree and muttered to herself.
The Human race had already displayed a powerful strength that was not inferior to any other race. They were already qualified to make friends with any race and stand on equal footing. In the past, she would never have had such thoughts.
After all, the Human race had performed too weakly in the past. They were so weak that more than half of them could be massacred at any time.
...
But now, it was completely different.
That kind of status had naturally developed from within, leading one to subconsciously place the Human race on an equal level with oneself.
That was the change and influence brought about by strength.
“The Human race’s Lord of Dawn, Li Xiang! Interesting. However, no matter how powerful the Human race’s potential is, it can’t compare to the Three-eyed Divine race. My Three-eyed race is the true Divine race. Sooner or later, we will ascend to the heavens and stand at the peak of the Myriad races. Moreover, this is just the beginning. No one knows what will happen in the future. The Human race may not be able to rise. There are too many races in this world, and not just any race can survive.”
The Three-eyed race’s young master, Tian Mu Lei Yin, looked at the back of the Human Army as they left and revealed a look of arrogance from within.
It was a look that disregarded the Human race.
In his heart, not many races in this world could compare to his race. The bloodline of his race was born to be noble and sacred, and no other race could compare to it.
From his point of view, although Li Xiang’s displayed strength was not weak, that was all there was to it. Li Xiang might not be able to defeat him. No one would know the result until they fought. His trump card was not weak either.
“Hurry up and go!”
“Keep up, all of you keep up. Why are you so slow? If anyone dares to play tricks on me, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“You guys, if it weren’t for my kindness, I wouldn’t even want to acknowledge you as my close relatives. When we reach the Kingdom of Dawn, all of you better buck up. If anyone makes me lose face in front of my Master, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
...
At that moment, they heard an unpleasant shout from the forest in the distance. The scolding didn’t stop, but all the foreign races found it familiar.
“This is bad. It’s that dog!”
Some had a deep impression and almost instinctively sensed it. They exclaimed in surprise and began to tremble.
“What’s that? A Kobold? Why are these Kobolds here? And they’re even bringing their entire family along. Is the entire race migrating?” Some people saw ferocious-looking Kobolds walking out of the forest.
Some were thin and weak, some were old and weak, and there were also young Kobolds.
It was evident that that was the migration of the Kobold tribe.
Eight Kobolds could be seen carrying a palanquin during that process. The Black Emperor, which was covered in black fur, was lying on the palanquin in a relaxed manner. It would wave its paws from time to time and shout loudly.
Following it was a huge number of Kobolds. Upon closer inspection, there were at least 100,000 of them. The entire mountain was filled with Kobolds at one glance.
Dang dang dang!
An alarm sounded in the sky above the Hundred Fruits Village.
“Quick, send the signal. There’s a foreign race, many foreign races.”
...
“They’re Kobolds. I’ve seen them before. The Kobolds in the wilderness are as numerous as locusts. They come in groups of three to five, and they will attack anyone they encounter. Many people have died under the claws of the Kobolds.”
“These Kobolds are very difficult to deal with. Once they lock on you, they’ll signal and attract other Kobolds to attack together. Moreover, they are sinister and ruthless. When they attack, they don’t give face at all. They will resort to all kinds of attacks and methods.”
“So many Kobolds! Are they planning to attack our Hundred Fruits Village?”
More than 100,000 Kobolds appeared one after another. Even though there were a large number of old, weak, sick, and disabled people among them, the dense mass still made people’s scalps numb.
Those Kobolds had no humanity to speak of. If they charged in, the entire Hundred Fruits Village would be destroyed. Who knew how many people would die at the hands of those foreign races?
The Hundred Fruits Village’s garrison quickly took their positions on the city wall. On the city wall, there were mounted crossbows, divine crossbows, Archers, Spearmen, and so on.
The Hundred Fruits Village was different from the other poor villages. Because of the various fruits, they earned a huge amount of money. They had bought a lot of military equipment and weapons from various forces and even through the system’s Business City.
The village chief of the Hundred Fruits Village quickly walked up the city wall and looked at the Kobolds gathering outside. His expression was foul.
“So many Kobolds. The Lord of Dawn’s army only left not long ago, and they’re already here. Are they challenging the Human race? Aren’t they afraid that the Lord of Dawn will return with his army?”
When the village chief saw those foreign races, his entire body trembled out of anger.
Recalling how Li Xiang had led his army through the wilderness and fought invincibly against the foreign races with his all, he was no longer afraid.
...
“Soldiers, the Lord of Dawn has just left with his army. Before this, he has already fought for the dignity of the Human race. Those warriors who died in battle have used metal and blood to tell us where dignity comes from! It comes from death and blood. We can’t lose the reputation built by the martyrs here. Now tell me, are you afraid?”
The village chief shouted, his expression full of excitement.
The blood in his body was already boiling as he witnessed Li Xiang and the others returning in bloodied glory.
At that moment, all of his fear was thrown to the back of his mind.
