Chapter 964 The Great Power of the Eternal Heaven
"There are actually people in this world who can tame such a monstrous natural disaster."
In the eyes of ordinary people, a mid-level dragon species like the Indominus Rex can already be considered a natural disaster.
Its volcanic divinity, when unleashed to its fullest extent, can trigger a volcanic eruption that transforms the entire city into a "Pompeii" from the ancient empire era. How can this not be called a monstrous natural disaster?
However, in the extraordinary world, the monstrous beasts of natural disasters mentioned by great figures like the Wusun Shaman are far superior to the Tyrannical Dragon, a beast that relies on divine power and can only manipulate the power of the volcano it inhabits.
If we must draw a comparison to a tyrannical dragon, it must be a ferocious creature that can instantly transform lush mountains and clear waters into scorched earth spewing lava and poisonous mist wherever it goes.
That was a truly legendary creature, capable of unleashing a terrifying white calamity that would sweep across the entire grasslands, and this three-headed demonic dragon clearly deserved that rating.
A sense of unease arose in Wusun Shaman's heart. He had never liked to interfere in worldly affairs, but with such an enemy blocking the way to the west, would that boy Jochi really still insist on going his own way and continuing the westward expedition?
howl--
The wolf howls at the moon.
The full moon, which had seemed to have been swallowed up by a wolf, suddenly rose high in the sky again.
Countless illusory wolf shadows appeared around the gray wolf, worshipping it devoutly. Through these illusory wolf shadows, one could vaguely see countless nomads living by water and grass on the vast grassland.
The Xiongnu, Turks, Rouran, Xianbei, Khitan, and Tatars.
Countless nomadic peoples, once prosperous, rose and fell, one after another, but the only constant was their most basic faith in the heavens that nurtured them.
This faith is so vast and boundless, like a galaxy.
Even though Wusun had the title of "Bieqi" and possessed the sacred objects of past great shamans, he could only manipulate a small part of it. But even this small part was already considered inexhaustible.
howl!
The wolves howled, and the pack worshipped the moon. The dense, illusory wolf shadows transformed into streaks of light that entered the sky, making the full moon appear countless times larger.
No.
It's not an enlargement!
The moon is about to descend directly overhead!
Lothar could clearly feel the heavy pressure coming from above. The Tatars were indeed the great enemies he had in mind. The spellcasters he encountered in their first encounter possessed power far surpassing that of legendary figures like Shemaier.
"Boss, you'd better make a move, or I'm no match for this guy."
next moment.
In that world filled with lava and poisonous fog, two golden suns suddenly appeared. They were Lothar's eyes, and the manifestation of his legendary ancient dragon power in the Ladon realm.
A domain is like cutting off a piece of the existing world and making it your own, so that you can act on the rules of the world according to your own will.
As a highly exclusive force, it originally did not allow the intrusion of other alien forces; once intruded, it meant confrontation.
That's why the two fields are so clearly opposed, rather than integrated.
Lothar, the master of the three-headed dragon and possessing the same legendary fire dragon power, was able to perfectly circumvent this, continuously channeling his power into Ladon's domain.
"Cool!"
"I have never felt such power before!"
The three craters spewed forth scorching lava, echoing with exhilarating roars, and tons of volcanic ash and lava were hurled into the sky like a meteor shower.
The full moon, bathed in a cool, clear light, drew ever closer, carrying with it a deathly stillness that seemed to extinguish all things and bring peace to all living beings, and it pressed down upon Ladon's domain. But the two rising, blazing suns instantly blocked it all.
This was a silent collision.
However, the erosion and collision between the two domains are ongoing at all times.
The battle has reached a stalemate.
Lothar was not impatient. It was impossible to eliminate such an opponent in a short time. Moreover, he was not without trump cards. With his current connection with Lavinia, even if they were far apart, he could always draw upon the blessing of the law.
The problem is that this is the Tatars' home ground, and their superhumans will never sit idly by and watch this powerful enemy be defeated.
...
Within the domain of the shaman Wusun, a figure suddenly appeared. He looked at Wusun, who was covered in sweat and had his disheveled white hair stuck to his forehead, and couldn't help but let out a disdainful sneer.
The shaman Wusun exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you here?"
"That brat Jochi begged me to come."
Kokochu let out a soft snort; he actually hoped that the brat Wusun would die at the hands of this Fulin Khan.
As for being unable to fight alone after Wusun's death? What a joke! If he, a dignified Tongtian Shaman, couldn't even handle an enemy without the help of that brat Wusun, he might as well just die.
However, since a man of Jochi's strong character had already pleaded with him, if he did not agree, the two would inevitably turn against each other. Kokochu also wanted to use Jochi to promote his sect throughout the Western world, and even return to the grasslands in the future, all of which would require Jochi's help.
"Don't be careless, this guy is no ordinary person."
Wusun knew that Kokochu had always looked down on him, and there was indeed a gap between the two in terms of magical power, but he controlled the shamanic instruments and the name, so his strength was probably not much weaker than Kokochu's.
Furthermore, this is a clash of domains between the two. Although Kokochu is also a shaman and their power attributes are similar, it is extremely difficult for them to cooperate.
"Fool, since you know this enemy is no ordinary opponent, why are you still stubbornly resisting?"
Kokochu faced the lava world opposite him and said in an icy tone, "Fulin Khan, you can continue to fight with that brat Wusun, but I will go to this small Sassanid town in front of Yiping."
"Are you threatening me?"
A blurry human figure was outlined at the edge of the lava world by the immense spiritual power; it was a projection of Lothar's power.
Koko's expression shifted slightly, and his tone softened considerably: "This is not a threat. I just feel that important figures like us shouldn't risk our lives for a bunch of ordinary people so easily. What do you think?"
"what do you want?"
"We can reach an agreement."
...
The brief exchange has ended.
The terrifying fluctuations in the sky disappeared.
The new Sassanid king, riding a dragon, descended from the sky and returned to Hovezan. The Tatars on the opposite side also retreated to their respective camps. However, they clearly had no intention of ceasing hostilities and retreating. Instead, they began cutting down the forests in the valley and building siege weapons.
"His Majesty."
Governor Rumi gazed at the man on the dragon's back for a long time before lowering his head: "You came alone to rescue Howezan from the barbarians' blades. Regardless of your beliefs, the warriors of Howezan are willing to fight for you from this day forward to repay your kindness."
On the city wall, Sassanids knelt scattered on the ground.
"Gentlemen, rise. The old Sassanid king Bahram has removed his crown and knelt in submission. The territory and people of Howezan are now mine. Protecting the borders and ensuring the safety of the people is the duty of a monarch. You need not thank me."
The guards who were worried that their governor might offend the other party breathed a sigh of relief and were somewhat excited.
"Now that we have His Majesty and your demonic dragon to our aid, as long as we hold out for a while, reinforcements will arrive in droves. If the Tatars still do not retreat by then, we will surely slaughter them without leaving a single one alive!"
"Kill all these beasts who have invaded our land, burning, killing, and looting!"
"His Majesty will lead us to avenge our humiliation!"
Lothar shook his head: "Don't let your guard down, everyone. The number of Tatar spellcasters is unknown, but it's definitely not just the two who showed up earlier."
"If extraordinary power is used, the enemy can also use it, which would result in a massacre of both armies. That's why there's a tacit rule in the world of extraordinary beings that neither side's extraordinary beings can interfere in the secular battlefield."
Governor Rumi's expression shifted slightly: "You mean, neither you nor the other side's superhumans will take action for some time to come?"
Lothar nodded slightly: "That's all for now."
The expressions of the Howezan garrison changed immediately.
At this time, the Tatars were undoubtedly one of the strongest armies in the world.
It possesses the horsemanship and archery skills of a nomadic people, and the unity of man and horse, while the progressively layered thousand-household system eliminates the shortcomings of a disorganized and undisciplined people who can only fight when the wind is favorable.
It possesses both the prosperity of settled ethnic groups' industry and commerce and their excellent armor and equipment, and retains the nomadic people's characteristics of living by water and pasture, being good at long-distance raids, and being hardworking and resilient.
Many conscripts from conquered peoples, once incorporated into the Tatar military system, were transformed into a powerful army capable of inflicting heavy losses on their former compatriots.
This was partly due to the corrupt military system of the Sassanid dynasty, but it was also because the war machine built by the Great Khan of the Steppe was truly efficient.
This is by no means because the Tatars are inherently good at fighting; rather, anyone incorporated into this system will be quickly transformed into a "qualified part" that meets the Tatars' war needs.
Even the seasoned Gazi warrior, Governor Rumi, felt uneasy fighting against such an opponent.
