King

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

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

The most embarrassing thing was that many teams passed through the principality and were mistaken by the Mossi people as being sent by the Alliance to reinforce them. The welcome banquet was arranged, but the old guys left anyway.

Hudson was also one of the witnesses at the scene. The average age of the supporting troops passing by was already over 80, and there were quite a few who were over 100 years old. They were a proper group of "old men".

Even if they have good strength, they only have a few years left to live. I guess they are not willing to die on the bed, and want to give it a last try while they can still move.

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

Not only the strong ones participated in this operation, some ordinary knights also joined the team. It is not only to give it a try before death, but also to exert the last remaining energy for the family.

The same death, dying on the battlefield against the orcs, is much more glorious than dying at home.

Not only did he have a posthumous name, but the subsequent recruitment tasks were also completed incidentally.

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

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

Deep down in his heart, Hudson suddenly didn't want an accident to happen to Emperor Beamon now. As long as Emperor Beimeng is still alive, the dignitaries who peep into the secret of immortality will not stop.

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

Without the formidable enemy of the orcs, although the land in Northern Xinjiang is a little barren, it is no longer a hot potato.

It is natural for the kingdom to take back the lost lands in the north. Even if the province is expanded to another dozen or so provinces, it is not impossible.

Of course, it is impossible to eat this kind of good thing alone.

Either it was a large-scale land exchange operation, and the entire territory of the Alpha Kingdom moved northward.

Either a group of big forces within the Human Alliance are supporting several new countries in the north and placing their own children there.

In terms of territorial area, 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 one-third of the entire human race territory.

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

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

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became. When it came time to implement it, Hudson found to his embarrassment that he seemed to be unable to 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 all major forces greatly exceeded the minimum number stipulated by the alliance meeting, and far exceeded Caesar III's inner expectations.

As expected, it would be enough for hundreds of experts to come and help. Unexpectedly, "a rumor" actually fooled a huge team of more than 20,000 people.

Of all the participants, the weakest were intermediate knights/magicians. Even the earth knights and magisters had more than 800 people. There were even thirty-eight sky knights and seventeen 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 gather here at once.

There are also legendary figures here, and many powerful people are already dead in the eyes of the outside world. If it weren't for the "Secret Technique of Immortality", I guess these old antiques wouldn't show up.

To put it bluntly, except for a few long-lived races, there is no 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 mainland hegemon is fully reflected here.

Although most of them are old and frail, and their combat effectiveness is at a discount, they are still a force beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Never mind the first cavalry and first infantry in the mainland, they are not worth mentioning in front of this "Uncle Heavenly Regiment".

Perhaps destroying the Orc Empire is not enough, but the strength to penetrate the Behemoth Imperial Court is already available. The small population of the Behemoth clan alone cannot withstand the torment of these uncles.

The smile on Caesar III's face never stopped as he warmly entertained all the "grandpas". Suddenly his expression condensed, and he said slightly embarrassed: "Ancestor, you are here too!"

The news of the secret method of immortality was released to deceive the strong men into coming to deal with the orcs. That's it for other people, his own family is not among his deceptions.

"So many old friends are here, can't I come out to greet them? Okay, you can go and do your own work, and don't interfere with me reminiscing with my old friends."

The old man said angrily.

Caesar III, who was good at observing people's emotions, instantly understood. This was a hint to him that after the banquet, he had something to discuss with him.

"Then you are free to do whatever you want, I will go and get busy first."

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

Although most of the visitors have less than a few years left to live, it does not mean that these old antiques have less say in their own power.

They retreated, but their descendants still held power. Even if he is not the boss of his force, he is still an important figure in it.

The fact that so many people came to attend the banquet was not because of Caesar III's reputation, but because everyone needed a platform to communicate with each other.

There should be a grouping together, an alliance should be formed, and there is no future for working alone in this kind of group war.

Caesar III had no choice but to make familiar faces with people everywhere. The arrival of unexpected reinforcements inevitably affected the strategic plan of the Alpha Kingdom.

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

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 was such a great temptation that one couldn't miss it.

Caesar III, who had been busy until the end of the banquet and dragged his exhausted body, was pulled into a secret room in the palace by his ancestor before he had time to rest.

Being so cautious on his own territory, Caesar III's expression became serious, and his intuition told him that something big must happen next.

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

I called you here today. I guess you also guessed a little bit. Among the previous monarchs of my Alpha Kingdom, the boy's ability is enough to rank among the top three.

Throughout the entire Aslant continent, there are only a few monarchs with abilities above yours.

But do you know that you just did a stupid thing? If it hadn't been for good luck, I would have almost been caught! "

The old man's words made Caesar III's face change greatly. When he saw so many people being fooled, he was secretly proud of the success of his plan, but he didn't expect that there were loopholes left.

"Ancestor, please enlighten me!"

Caesar III asked hurriedly.

Logically speaking, he had already done it very secretly in releasing the rumors. Under normal circumstances, there would be no trace on his head, but from what the old man said, it was clear that he was being tricked.

Political conspiracies don't matter, but plotting against a group of old antiques who are about to expire is another matter.

Giving people hope and then cutting off their hope will drive people crazy. A group of dying people went crazy, and the destructive power they could unleash was absolutely beyond imagination.

"You kid did it very covertly. There was no flaw in it originally, but it's a pity it's too much of a coincidence!

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

Fortunately, you are 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 preconception, you thought that the secret method of immortality didn't exist at all, and you didn't take it seriously.

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

After each recovery, his body returned to its prime. Without these changes, he would have died a hundred years ago.

There are various signs that even if Emperor Behemoth does not have the secret method of immortality, he still has the secret method that can extend the life of a person.

However, this secret method may have certain limitations or require a certain price to be paid.

No matter what, the secret method only exists. For us old guys who are approaching the end of our lives, it is worth taking a gamble. "

The old man's words made Caesar III's expression change drastically. The "secret method" actually existed, which completely refreshed his knowledge.

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

He who is as strong as the Saint Realm expert is only over two hundred years old. No matter how many heavenly materials and earthly treasures you take, you can't break through the limit of longevity.

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

"Ancestor, you mean this time..."

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

Perhaps the secret method of extending life in the hands of Emperor Behemoth has very strict restrictions and there is no possibility of promotion.

But, so what?

I know my physical condition best. If we cannot break through the bottleneck of the Holy Domain, even if no accidents occur, it will only happen in the last one or two years.

Use your last lifespan to fight for a chance of survival, and you won’t lose anything!

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

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

Caesar III was silent.

When it comes to the "secret method of immortality", 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 but be suspicious.

Did he really not think of these things?

I'm afraid, not entirely.

As a political strongman, what Caesar III was best at was winning the greatest victory at the least cost.

But people are not machines after all, they have their own feelings. It doesn't matter if he plots against others, but when it comes to his own family, Caesar III still can't be calm.

In a sense, since he released the rumors of the "Secret Technique of Immortality", it means that the local strong men 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 have to be carried back lying down.

…

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

Looking at the white-haired team full of vicissitudes of life, endless words will come together, everything is in silence.

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 before they even reach the battlefield.

For a knight, even if he really wants to die, he must die on the battlefield. If he died in the middle, it would be too frustrating.

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

As soon as he flew over the head of the army, he was jumped up and dragged down by a bad-tempered knight. He died miserably.

This was just the beginning. The army marched all the way north, and the Yingren responsible for reconnaissance along the way were the first to become victims.

It is useless to detect the information. The key is how to send the information back. Encountering this untouchable team, the Eagle Scouts were taken down as soon as they showed up, just to give away their lives.
