The bright sunshine shrouded the grassland, making the patches of already green water plants look even fresher.
Cows and sheep can be seen in the windblown grass.
A breeze blew by, and several buffaloes and sheep raised their heads and looked to the left.
At the end of the horizon in that direction, a majestic white city stands tall.
The sunlight shines on the silver-white city wall, making the mottled marks on the city wall clearer and clearer, as if to prove the long history of this giant white city.
This giant city occupies a vast area, with exquisite buildings rising from the ground inside. Countless centaurs of different colors are walking inside, either entering or leaving the chamber of commerce or the market. They are all filled with laughter and laughter, and it is very lively.
On the city wall, centaur knights wearing heavy silver armor and holding spears and bucklers were standing guard in full formation.
This is a prosperous city.
Centaur King City—Bai Wei!
This huge city named "Baiwei" is named after the ninth centaur king of the Centaur clan, Baiwei Chiron, 2800 years ago.
That king was also the first queen in the history of the Centaur clan.
The centaur clan was not fully integrated until 3200 years ago by the first centaur king.
Before that, the centaur tribes on the grassland basically fought on their own, and different clans were as hostile as foreign tribes.
However, even after the first centaur king integrated the various clans, the centaurs still lived in tribal tents and did not build city walls or cities.
There is no other reason.
What is the significance of city walls?
In this era of the peak of extraordinary power, the city wall represents the base material of the city defense formation. Otherwise, the city wall, which is only a dozen meters or tens of meters high, can be climbed over by a second- and third-level alien-blood warrior with a running jump.
A city wall is not a fortification.
With the city wall as the basis of the formation, the city defense formation released is the real defense.
However, this technology of setting up a city defense formation is completely monopolized by humans, and the Centaurs do not understand how to set up a city defense formation at all.
Under such circumstances, building a city wall with no real meaning would be of no use to the centaurs.
Until the centaur queen appeared.
Baiwei Chiron.
A centaur magician at the Nine Palace level.
Under her leadership, the Centaur clan successfully expanded its territory five times by "horses on the grassland", laying an extremely solid territorial foundation for future generations.
The king must study martial arts.
In terms of martial arts, among the ancient kings of the past, the "unification" achievements of the first centaur king can be compared with Bai Wei. Other than that, no one can match him.
But she has more than just martial arts.
There is also Wenzhi.
After Bai Wei came to power, the originally turbulent internal affairs situation quickly stabilized. The various Centaur clans that were originally at odds with each other were completely united by her. This is also the main reason why she can lead her clan to crazy expansion.
reason.
In addition, under the leadership of Bai Wei, a Nine Palace-level centaur spellcaster, the centaur clan also successfully developed their own city defense formation technology!
Since then, the magnificent royal city belonging to the Centaur clan began to be built.
And Bai Wei also won the honor of naming the royal city after herself by virtue of this unprecedented political achievement.
but……
In this world, big fists are the last word.
After the centaur clan's royal city was established, it took less than half a year for the other clans on the grassland, such as the lion-headed people, tiger people and other powerful tribes, to unite to force the king to enter the palace.
They forced the centaur clan to hand over Bai Wei's city-building technology.
Once the defensive formation of Baiwei King City was activated, the defense power was really amazing. Even if all the tribes joined forces, they could not break through it in a short time.
But continuing like this is never an option.
When the formation base materials are exhausted, the walls of Baiwei King City will still be trampled to pieces.
So in desperation, the centaur clan handed over Baiwei's city-building skills.
Since then, each powerful tribe on the grassland has gradually built its own royal city, but the techniques used are basically derived from Bai Wei's city-building technique.
so.
The name Baiwei Chiron is not only of great significance to the centaur clan, but also to the hundreds of orc clans on the entire grassland. This historical figure is of great significance.
Moreover, the Centaur clan does not only build cities.
The three major overlords of the grassland today are the tiger man, the lion-headed man, and the tauren.
However, if we had to single out a fourth powerful tribe among these three overlords, it would have to be the Centaurs.
Compared with the strength and aggressiveness of these three overlords, the Centaurs are obviously much more "peaceful".
Not only in the past two or three thousand years, but even in today's war-torn period, they have still kept a low profile, and even the news of the new king's succession has not spread much to the outside world.
But, peace?
Only those who are strong enough to love peace are called peace-loving.
In recent months, in the face of the plundering by the three major overlords, the Centaur clan has never expressed its stance, not even a few harsh words in public.
In the eyes of many centaurs and other orcs, this cannot be explained by "peace-loving" at all. It is already a serious act of "cowardice and cowardice".
However, the three overlords don't seem to want to go to war with the Centaur clan.
So far, they have never launched an invasion against the Centaur clan's kingship. They have always been fighting with other small centaur tribes and have never provoked the Centaur clan's kingship.
Perhaps it is for this reason that the Chiron clan, which rules the Centaur clan, has always remained silent.
However, the Centaur clan remains silent externally, but in the past two months, they have been very noisy internally.
The reason for the quarrel is precisely related to the "Bai Wei Chiron" in history.
"madness!"
Centaur King City, the highest political palace.
Inside the government hall, which was decorated with a platinum color tone, there were dozens of seats, many centaurs wearing armors or costumes gathered together, arguing endlessly, and the atmosphere of the entire hall started from the beginning.
It's so depressing.
These centaurs are all from the Chiron clan with green hair and green eyes.
However, among this group of king-blood centaurs, the loudest one was a human spellcaster wearing black robes and standing on the main stage.
He is the only human being present, with an ordinary appearance. His cultivation at the early stage of the Four Elephants level is also at the level of an ant in this hall. What is really impressive may be his one-eyed feature.
And, his sonorous and powerful voice.
"The suggestions you make are extremely stupid!"
The one-eyed spellcaster looked around and shouted in a deep voice: "Sacrifice the life of the contemporary centaur king to awaken the remnant soul of an ancestor who has been dead for more than two thousand years. You can't think of such a thing."
!Persecuting the life and safety of the 'King' for no reason is a rebellious act that violates the Holy Land's will and will lead to civil strife in the entire Centaur clan!"
"Holy Land Instructions?"
A male centaur general wearing black heavy armor looked at him coldly, "That is the holy land of our centaur clan, and it is the legacy left by our centaur ancestors. If there is no civil strife in our centaur clan, it will be your fault."
What’s wrong with this human being? You have no place to speak here!”
"that is."
Another centaur general wearing red armor also had a bad look on his face. Looking at the one-eyed magician on the main stage, he almost said four words through gritted teeth, "Shut up, human!"
"Shut up?"
The one-eyed magician held his head high and said calmly, "I am Qiupu, the Queen's first staff member! The Queen was unable to attend this political meeting due to physical discomfort. With the Queen's authorization, now, my voice,
It represents the Queen’s will, General Uduka, please tell me, when you shut me up, do you mean you want the Queen to shut up?”
"you!"
When the centaur general in red armor heard this, he immediately became anxious and quickly wanted to retort, "Don't talk nonsense, I..."
"Enough!"
At this time, on the second stage on the left, an old centaur wearing a luxurious purple robe spoke slowly.
The sound was not loud, but it silenced the entire political hall.
Because the old centaur was standing in the second seat from the left.
The venue layout of the Yizheng Hall is generally semicircular.
Centaurs who are qualified to participate in tribal affairs stand in an arc.
On the high platform opposite, there are only three seats, the primary seat of the Centaur King, and the secondary seats on the left and right.
Now that the Queen is not here, her first aide, the human conjurer Qiupu, is delivering the message on her behalf, and is also standing in the chief position.
As for his left and right sides, there were two old centaurs.
One was wearing a luxurious purple robe.
One was wearing heavy silver armor.
The former is the strongest magician of the centaur clan, the contemporary "Centaur Staff", and a centaur magician in the late Nine Palaces - Ant Chiron.
The latter is the strongest warrior of the centaur clan, the contemporary "Sword of Centaur", and a centaur warrior of the late Nine Palaces level - Wells Chiron.
This "one staff and one sword" is the right-hand man of the centaur kings of all ages.
At the same time, after the death of the previous king, they are also the only two late Nine Palaces in the contemporary centaur clan.
And the purple-robed old centaur who just said "enough" silenced the entire political hall was none other than Ant Chiron, the contemporary "Centaur Staff".
"Unreasonable arguments are just noise."
Ant looked around, looked at the members of the Council Hall, and finally glanced at the one-eyed magician Qiupu next to him, and said in a deep voice: "The current situation is that our one, Misha, is said to have the highest blood purity in 500 years.
The queen is only at the fourth level of cultivation.
The purity of her bloodline is very high, which means that her cultivation speed will definitely become faster and faster in the future.
There is no doubt about this and I will not refute it.
But the problem is, in this turbulent era, if we, the Centaur clan, don’t do something, it will be difficult to say whether we will have any ‘future’ at all.
Therefore, my suggestion is to sacrifice Queen Misha and use her high-purity blood to awaken the remnant soul of the ancestor Baiwei Chiron.
At least in history, ancestor Bai Wei has proven her wisdom.
Now, we need the wisdom of ancestor Bai Wei to lead our centaur clan forward.
Use a fourth-level young queen in exchange for the wisdom of an ancestor queen.
I think it's quite worth it.
And Queen Misha will also be held in the highest respect by our entire clan. I will always commemorate her and remember her contribution to our clan..."
"Fuck your motherfucker!"
"Ante, has your brain been replaced with that of a pig-headed man?"
Before Ant finished speaking, a Centaur general standing on the seat to his right cursed coldly.
This is a rather vulgar term, and it seems that it should not appear in a sacred place like the Yizheng Hall.
But no one dared to accuse him.
Because this old centaur is the contemporary "Sword of Centaur" and the current top centaur general - Wells Chiron!
In terms of status, he is second only to the Queen.
In terms of strength, he is not much worse than Ante, who is also at the late Jiugong level.
“When it comes to matters for today’s people, should we seek the wisdom of the ancients?”
Wells looked at Ant coldly, "Don't you magicians claim to be knowledgeable? Why, you still need to ask for help from an ancestor who has been dead for more than two thousand years?"
"besides."
The powerful centaur general looked around and said in a deep voice: "I would like to remind you that the ancient books in the Holy Land say that the remnant soul of Bai Wei's ancestor can still be awakened, but no one can guarantee it. After all, they have been dead for more than two thousand years.
Who can guarantee that her remnant soul will still be awakened?!"
"The lifespan of a living thing is limited to a thousand years, even for the soul."
At this time, Qiu Pu also spoke slowly, "You might as well think about it, if ancestor Bai Wei can really do this, there is no reason that the more powerful Daluo Dynasty, Tulip Empire, and Violet Empire can't.
But it turns out that this kind of thing has never happened in the world.
Not even half of the ancestors of these three empires remain.
Therefore, if Minister Ant's suggestion is really adopted, then the outcome of this matter will most likely be that the Queen dies in vain, and then there will be no results.
To the people, this is equivalent to our council murdering the Queen for no reason.
This is a betrayal of the royal bloodline and a rebellion against the teachings of our ancestors!"
"here we go again."
At the political table, a young female centaur looked helpless, "So, today's political meeting is like this again? What is the difference between this and the previous two times? Please, please, can you stop wasting our time?
, I think Queen Misha guessed this right, so she doesn’t even want to come today, right?”
"Then you have to ask Minister Ant."
Qiupu looked at the purple-robed centaur on the left and said softly: "It's you who convened the political meeting."
"..."
Ander frowned and stroked his beard with his right hand. After a few seconds of silence, he said in a deep voice: "If I can prove that the remnant soul of Bai Wei's ancestor can be awakened, can you all agree to sacrifice Mi
Queen Shah’s proposal?”
"Um?"
As soon as he said this, Qiupu's eyes suddenly darkened.
"Then I'm going to say 'I second my opinion'."
In the political table, a green-haired centaur said with a smile, "After all, the people's opposition to Queen Misha's accession to the throne is still very loud, and to be honest, what can Queen Misha do for our centaur family?"
What?
Nothing can be done.
So far, she is just a mascot wearing a crown and sitting on a throne.
The greatest use of Queen Misha is to stabilize the people. After all, the Centaur clan cannot live without a king.
But even for such a small thing, she failed.
Although the opposition voices among the people are getting smaller day by day, they still exist.
But Bai Wei’s ancestors were different.
Everyone here probably doesn’t need me to explain her position in everyone’s heart.
As for her wisdom, history has already proven everything.
Even Mr. Qiupu should be aware of the status of Bai Wei's ancestor.
Let's put it this way, at least 90% of the people would agree to replace Queen Misha with Ancestor Bai Wei.
But the biggest disagreement we had about this matter before was that no one was sure of the success rate of this matter.
No one can guarantee that after sacrificing Queen Misha, the remnant soul of Bai Wei's ancestor will be able to wake up.
So I haven't cast my vote yet.
However, if Minister Ant can really prove this, then the vote in my hand can be given to you."
"Me too."
"And me."
"If it can really prove that it will be successful, I will also support you, Minister Ant."
"Add me one."
In the discussion table, one centaur after another seconded the motion.
"very good."
Ant's lips curled up slightly, "Then let's end this political meeting. Next time I hold a political meeting again, I will definitely give you a satisfactory result. Please look forward to it, everyone."
"I'll keep an eye on you, Ant."
Next to him, Centaur General Wells looked at him coldly.
"Oh."
Ant didn't reply, just sneered, and then was the first to leave the table, tearing a rift in the space and leaving.
One after another, dozens of centaurs at the political table also left.
"..."
In the end, Cup and Wells were the only two people left in the empty government hall.
"What on earth is he thinking?"
Qiupu frowned slightly.
"I don't know."
Wells shook his head, and then said calmly: "Anyway, I won't let little Misha get any harm. Back then, I failed to protect her mother. Now, it's time for me to make up for it."
"There are still some things to deal with in the military camp. Let's take the first step."
After saying that, Wells tore open the rift in space and left.
Qiupu didn't stay any longer, turned around and walked towards the door of the Assembly Hall.
"Squeak——"
After pushing open the heavy golden door, the dazzling sunlight from outside suddenly poured in, making Qiupu feel a little uncomfortable, and his only left eye narrowed slightly.
"Mr. Cup."
Seeing the door open, a centaur guard outside the door hurriedly stepped forward, lowered his head and said: "Just now, a member of the royal family came over and wanted to see you, but you are having a meeting in the Council Hall, so I will let them wait in your council hall first.
Already."
"Members of the royal family? Them?"
Qiupu frowned slightly, "Which royal family member? He also brought others with him?"
"Karl Chiron."
The centaur guard replied: "He is also accompanied by his daughter Alain Chiron and a human. Moreover, after learning the name of this human, you will definitely meet them, so I dare not neglect you."
, but the "Holy Law" also stipulates that no idlers can stay near the Council Hall, so I will send someone to lead them to your council hall to wait."
"oh?"
Qiupu was even more surprised when he heard this, "Man or woman? What's your name?"
"man."
The centaur guard replied respectfully: "His name is Li Guanqi."
