A Handsome Old Man laughed like an owl and said, "Eat it … Hehe, as long as you eat it, the taste will definitely be good." His expression was a little strange.
Guo Shier looked at the Soul Orb in his hand and then looked at A Handsome Old Man. He was skeptical in his heart. After a while, he said, "Why do I feel that there's a problem …"
A Handsome Old Man put on an innocent expression and said, "What's the problem? You're thinking too much, hehe. "
Guo Shier said doubtfully, "Why do I feel that there's something wrong with your smile … Oh, let me think about it. It's a little disgusting to eat it directly."
A Handsome Old Man said, "If you don't want to eat it, then give it to me."
Guo Shier tried to put the Soul Orb on his forehead. At the same time, his soul emitted a wave. The Soul Orb immediately turned into a warm current and directly entered his soul.
It was an extremely pleasant feeling. Guo Shier had never experienced such a feeling before. His whole body was trembling slightly. The pleasure of his soul was so intense that his eyes lost focus.
A Handsome Old Man let out a chuckle and said, "The taste isn't bad, right? Do it a few more times … I think you'll be addicted."
After a while, Guo Shier slowly opened his eyes. He was stunned for a long time before he said, "Scary!" Then he immediately chanted the Soul Scripture. In a split second, his soul began to fluctuate rhythmically. A Handsome Old Man originally wanted to say something, but after feeling Guo Shier's soul fluctuation, he also quieted down. For a life of soul, this kind of soul fluctuation was extremely attractive. He simply couldn't resist this kind of temptation.
After chanting the scripture a hundred times, the Soul Orb completely merged with his soul.
The unscrupulous A Handsome Old Man wanted to see Guo Shier make a fool of himself. He smiled and asked, "How's the taste?"
Guo Shier let out a long sigh and said, "A few more … I'll really be addicted. That kind of feeling is really wonderful. Oh right, A Handsome Old Man, how many Soul Orbs can we purify from the soul fragments we've collected this time?"
The handsome old man said, "We can probably get … well, less than two thousand."
Guo Shier said in horror, "Damn, so many!" He had only absorbed one Soul Bead, but his Soul Force had increased by quite a bit, and the amount of his soul had also increased by a bit. He knew this thing was a treasure, but he didn't expect there to be so many.
The handsome old man said, "Not much, I still think it's not enough!"
Guo Shi 'er asked, "Why is it not enough? Almost two thousand soul orbs, I can only use ten or so at most, and there are still so many left … "He was confused.
The handsome old man said, "We also need to use the altar, the sacrificial treasures, and your companions can also use them. How can these soul beads be enough? If there's a chance, you should collect some … Let's see if there's an opportunity. Although it's difficult, it's still possible. "
Having tasted the sweetness, he didn't object to collecting more souls. As long as he didn't kill them, he didn't have any qualms about collecting souls. He nodded and said, "Okay."
There was a commotion outside. Guo Shier put away the altar and walked out. "What is it?"
Nan Xiong stood outside the door and said, "Greetings, Ancestor."
Guo Shier smiled. "Nan Xiong, what's the matter?"
Nan Xiong said, "I received a message. The Nanqiang Ancestor wants you to go back."
Guo Shier said, "Do you know what it is? He wants me to return immediately? "
Nan Xiong said, "Yes, I will return as well. It should be to discuss the next step."
Guo Shier nodded. "Okay, let's go back together."
… …
At the camp, in the Great Talisman Castle where the headquarters was.
Not only were the Nanqiang Ancestor and Forefather Nan Qin present, but Guo Shier had also arrived with Falconer, Luo Zhan, and Nan You. Aside from a few commanders, most of the people in the hall were experts at or above the Illusory Altar.
Countless disciples waited outside the hall. Nan Yong occasionally gave orders, and Nan You and the others were sent out as well.
Guo Shier sat next to the Nanqiang Ancestor and Forefather Nan Qin. The three of them conversed in low voices. Forefather Nan Qin was in charge of the other attack force. The Nanqiang Ancestor was in charge of the camp headquarters. Guo Shier smiled. "Are we going to launch an all-out attack?"
"No, we'll be at a stalemate for a while," the Nanqiang Ancestor said. "But don't worry, Ancestor Guo. It won't be too long. The Gujin Clan has been badly beaten by our attack. Haha, the situation is good. As long as we occupy this place, they will take the initiative to negotiate."
Guo Shier was confused. "Negotiate?"
"Yes," the Nanqiang Ancestor said. "This kind of war … Neither the Gujin Clan nor our Gunan Clan can last long. The clan can't afford it. The losses are too great, and we'll have to expend a lot of resources and manpower. Once the war reaches a certain point, they will negotiate. Otherwise, the foundation of the clan will be shaken."
Guo Shier asked, "What will happen if the other party refuses to negotiate?"
The Nanqiang Ancestor smiled bitterly. "Then we'll be in trouble. The war will expand, and the clan will be greatly weakened … In this kind of war, our Gunan Clan has already lost more than a hundred thousand professionals. The other party's losses are slightly higher."
Guo Shier was shocked. A hundred thousand professionals was a terrifying number. A large-scale war had just begun, and they had already lost so many professionals. No wonder the Nanqiang Ancestor wanted to negotiate. The clan really couldn't afford it.
The Nanqiang Ancestor smiled. "Before we negotiate, we must conquer the Scarlet Gold Continent. The mines on this continent are enough to make up for our losses in this war."
Guo Shier didn't understand the state of war here, and he didn't know what the other clans understood about war. He was a little confused. An ancient clan occupied a continent and possessed many times more resources than a country in his previous life. Their potential for war was also enormous. Once a war broke out, how could it be stopped just like that?
After a while, Nan You returned. He stood behind Guo Shier and said, "The Big Beast Teams have arrived. There are a total of three of them."
Guo Shier asked curiously, "Big Beast Teams?"
Nan You nodded. "They are tamed mutated rune beasts."
Guo Shier asked, "High-level mutated rune beasts … can they be tamed?"
The Nanqiang Ancestor smiled. "High-level mutated rune beasts can't be tamed unless you use spirit beasts. However, the requirements to tame spirit beasts are too high. Not many people can do it, let alone form a team. This time, the family's Big Beast Teams have tamed rank 3 mutated rune beasts."
To Guo Shier, rank 3 mutated rune beasts could be killed with a wave of his hand. However, he understood that once a team of mutated rune beasts was formed, their power would greatly increase. He asked, "What kind of mutated rune beasts are they?"
Nan You said, "Armored Bulls. One team is made up of a thousand Armored Bulls, and the other is made up of rank 3 mutated rune horses."
Guo Shier asked, "There are a total of three teams. What kind of mutated rune beasts are the last team?"
Nan You said, "The last team is made up of earth dragons. They are made up of a hundred rank 3 Crag Dragons. Yes, there are also a few rank 4 mutated Crag Dragons. They specialize in breaking through the enemy's defensive formations."
Guo Shier asked, "Does the other team also have a Big Beast Team?"
Nan You said, "Yes, but … they can't be transferred here. Haha, it took a lot of money to transfer the Big Beast Team. Just the family's large teleportation formation is already very expensive. Although the Big Beast Team is powerful, it is very difficult to transport them."
When Guo Shier saw the Big Beast Team, he finally understood what Nan You meant by difficult. A rank 3 mutated Armored Bull was almost four meters tall and seven meters long. This kind of body could not be transported without a large teleportation formation. Even a large teleportation formation could only transport a few at a time.
As for the mutated Crag Dragon, it was even more exaggerated. It was more than thirty meters long and looked like a giant lizard. These things were tamed beasts and could not be stored in beast talismans. A large teleportation formation could only transport two or three of them at a time. It was easy to imagine how difficult it would be to transport a hundred of them.
The Southern Qiang Patriarch sighed and said, "This time, we are the ones who have mobilized the Big Beast Team. It is all up to the professionals of the family to fight. If we really can't take it, we can send the Big Beast Team. That way, the losses will be smaller."
A Handsome Old Man's soul rippled. "Kid, not bad. There is a Big Beast Team. Hehe, there will be a lot of deaths this time."
Guo Shier was speechless. He asked, "When will we attack?"
The Southern Qiang Patriarch said, "Very soon. In less than three days. This time, we will break through their defense line. Hehe, with the Big Beast Team's attack, they will not be able to stop it unless they send a few Patriarchs. But … with us here, as long as we delay them, the professionals of the Gu Jin Family will not be able to stop the Big Beast Team's attack."
Guo Shier said, "My mission is to delay the Patriarchs. I won't ask about anything else."
The Southern Qiang Patriarch nodded. "That's right. You don't have to worry about anything else. This time, I invited two good friends. Hehe, they are both Patriarchs. When the time comes, they will attack together. I don't believe that they can stop us, hehe."
