Alien Knights

Chapter 449: Another tyrant

? Todd's golden dragon pupil looked at Skaha, and reconfirmed: "Life and death?"

The latter nodded blankly, turned around, and left the hall with heavy steps.

Following Meredith, Todd crawled out of the temple on all fours, and couldn't help asking: "What happened to Cú Chulainn?"

Meredith stepped out of the door on the back porch of the temple and said softly: "Do you remember the fate of the tyrant I mentioned to you?"

"You mean the choice between being a human or a monster?"

"A tester who comes to the Kingdom of Shadows, if they can pass the three trials, can accept the gift of the tyrant and become a demigod." Meredith lowered her head and walked forward: "The demigods are receiving On the journey down, you need to make a final decision for your own destiny."

"Either give up the power of a tyrant and live as a human being...or, accept the final baptism, become an eternal monster, and step into the sanctuary of God."

Meredith stopped and said helplessly towards Todd: "Cuchurin, wobbly on these two roads, he wants strength, but he is afraid of the unknown."

Todd stood up straight and shook the slightly stiff tail of the dragon: "Let me guess, Cuchurin was just like me at the beginning, and said that he would consider the next options. But on the one hand, he has not come back, and on the other hand, he has not returned. He is constantly using the power of the tyrant. So, in the end, his power is out of control, and he becomes a monster who loses his mind?"

Meredith leaned on a broken stone pillar and looked at the southern sky: "Things are not so bad, but they are not far from this result... I heard that he is now back to his homeland— —The Kingdom of Ulster, and met with King Konchurber."

Todd opened his dragon wings and said in a deep voice, "If this is the case, I can't ignore his affairs even more. Please tell Scarha, I will complete her mission as soon as possible."

As soon as the voice fell, Todd flapped his dragon wings into the air and flew quickly in the direction of Froststone City.

When Froststone City appeared in Todd's field of vision, it was the early morning of the next day.

The inhabitants of the city walked out of the scattered high and low buildings, stretched their waists, carried equipment, and prepared to start their busy day.

The huge figure obscured the sunlight, causing everyone to look up.

"Son of the gods!"

As the figure of the black dragon flew across the city, a large swath of believers knelt on the ground, and one after another prayers and praises came from the city.

Flying to the sky above the central basin of Froststone City, Todd slowly landed on the open space behind the temple, adjusted his body shape, and gathered the dragon's wings.

Recalling the conversation with Leviathan about "Soul Seed", Todd cast his gaze on the wide flat ground in front of him, and let out a clear dragon roar towards the sky.

The old woman Minnie walked out of the gate of the temple with the shamans, came to the black dragon, kneeled on her knees, and bowed her head.

Todd said to the shamans in front of him: "Immediately organize manpower to build a pilgrimage site on the flat ground here."

"The pilgrimage place?" Minnie was puzzled: "Son of the gods, what is this building used for? What are the specific construction and decoration requirements?"

Todd thought for a while and said: "The pilgrimage is the gate to the sacred realms and the only way to enter the kingdom of Asgard. Only the most pious and best believers can be allowed to enter this building..."

The words of the black dragon made the shamans excited, and some people shouted in praise: "Great son of the gods! This sanctuary will be the pinnacle stone of the world! Being able to step into this place will be the realm of God for mortals. The highest award!"

Todd turned his head to Minnie: "I allow you to use all the resources in the city to build this sanctuary. The entire project can be completed in stages, and only a closed room needs to be built in the early stage."

After discussing the requirements of the pilgrimage with the shamans for a while, and what happened in Froststone City in recent days, Todd signaled that these people could go and start construction.

Immediately afterwards, Todd called Evie, who was in charge of foreign warfare reconnaissance, to his side in the soul space.

"Is there any news from the front line of the Griffin Reconnaissance Squad recently?"

Evie was a little surprised why Todd would suddenly ask about this, so he replied: "The battle group of Froststone City has reached the gate of the capital of Ulster, and is now cutting down trees to make siege weapons. I guess it's here. In a few days, the report of the destruction of the Ulster Kingdom will be delivered."

Finding that Todd was silent, Evie asked: "Are you worried about the outcome of this war? In my opinion, victory is beyond doubt. Before the war, we had already surveyed every city in the capital of Ulster. In one corner, the commanders of Froststone City have also discussed the best offensive plan based on the city’s defenses, forces, and terrain. As for the Connaughts, they shivered in their homes, and even went to the battlefield. There is no guts to send scouts."

Todd lowered his head to look at the Valkyrie: "I know a general who is experienced and veteran. He said to me this sentence-in war, nothing is set in stone. Due to some unexpected factors, it will be disrupted to be impossible to implement."

Evie lowered her head to ponder for a while, and then said, "I will send another team of Griffin Valkyrie to let them go to the front again."

Todd nodded and said, "I hope my worry is unnecessary."

Seven days later, Todd's worst expectations became reality.

A battle report stained with blood was sent to his eyes, which read as follows:

The six thousand froststone army that besieged Ulster's capital used a siege hammer to break through the city's gates. Under a messy castle, we did not see any defenders, but found a strong young man with a spear and an angry face.

With a scarlet spear, he garrisoned behind the collapsed city gate and did not retreat.

No matter how many times we charge, in front of the spear he wields, the soldiers' offensive is like snow meets sunlight, and they cannot be shaken.

Our warriors shouted the glory of the gods and regarded death as the supreme tribute to the gods.

The corpses piled up like a mountain, and the blood flowed together into a river.

This terrible "siege" lasted a whole day and night. Under this soldier with a blood gun, more than five hundred Froststone soldiers were killed.

At noon of the next day~lightnovelpub.net~, we finally found that the soldier in the city gate was soaked in blood, showing fatigue.

The commanders of the battle group blew the horn of the general attack, and Froststone's army rushed towards the gate that was guarded by only one person like a tide.

No one will believe the next scene.

The warrior's body has undergone an abnormal change, his figure getting bigger and bigger, his head collapsed on the city gate.

One of his eyes was sunken, and the other eye was protruding. There were huge teeth growing from his mouth, the corners of his mouth were grinning to the base of his ears, and his head became like a giant wolf.

There are seven sharp claws growing out of his limbs and seven pupils in his eyes. His roar, like the sound of a death knell, can pierce the hearts of the soldiers.

That crimson spear, constantly absorbing the blood of the victim in his hand, can become hundreds of appearances.

In the face of this invulnerable monster, the commanders of the battle group blew the horn of retreat, and the soldiers threw down their corpses in shame, just like a group of scared cowards, fleeing the battlefield without looking back.
