Ideals were plentiful, but reality was harsh! The Radiant Church's current mood was like this. In order to gain the reputation of dealing with the Beastmen alone, they refused the help of the Rosen Empire and the other Empires. They were prepared to deal with the Beastmen alone.
One had to admit that if it wasn't for Zhao Hai's help, then the Beastmen might have suffered a huge loss. But now, it was a completely different matter.
The Radiant Church thought that their poison would be able to deal with most of the Beastman army. But they didn't think that the Beastmen already knew about this matter and even drank the antidote.
The Beastmen were also aware of the Radiant Church's thoughts, so they cooperated with the Radiant Church. They wanted to use the Radiant Church's mentality to destroy the Church's army in one fell swoop. This way, the Aksu Empire would be like a defenseless virgin, allowing the Beastmen to do whatever they want.
One had to admit that at that time, information was very important. Information could change everything, and the Radiant Church had suffered a huge loss.
After the Beastmen entered the Purcell Duchy, they didn't destroy anything, they just looted everything that they could use.
This was also the purpose of the Beastmen's war. But this time, the Beastmen were actually thinking about it. They wanted to use this method to slow down their attack so that the Radiant Church would have enough time to make arrangements.
The Beastmen wanted to give the Radiant Church time to prepare. They wanted the Radiant Church to think that they had fallen into their trap. This way, the Radiant Church would feel relieved, and the Beastmen would use this opportunity to completely destroy the Radiant Church.
All of this seemed to take a long time, but in fact, it didn't take long. After the Beastmen entered the Purcell Duchy, although they directly threatened the left wing of the Radiant Church's army, they didn't immediately attack the left wing of the Radiant Church's army. Instead, they crazily wandered around the Purcell Duchy. Although there weren't many people left in the Duchy, they couldn't take too many supplies with them when they left. Moreover, the Purcell Family didn't burn their own food. Because of this, the Beastmen were able to obtain a lot of benefits in the Duchy.
This was what the Radiant Church wanted the Beastmen to do. If the Beastmen were to immediately attack the Radiant Church's army, then it would be very troublesome. The losses they would suffer would also be huge. But now that the Beastmen had stopped, this gave the spies an opportunity.
Although the Radiant Church had decided to use drugs to deal with the Beastmen, the drugs needed to be put into food or water to be effective. But to put it into the food was very difficult. After all, the food was under the care of the Purcell Family, so it wasn't easy to put the drugs inside. Therefore, the only way to do it was to put it into the water.
The special thing about water is that it can flow. Even if it's well water, it's actually running water. If you put medicine in it, it may be purified after a few days. Therefore, the timing of the medicine is very important.
If the Beastmen went all out to attack the Radiant Church's army, then the Radiant Church wouldn't be able to grasp the timing of the drug. But if the Beastmen stopped, then the Church would be able to use the drug.
The people of the Radiant Church couldn't help but secretly thank the Beastmen. However, they didn't think that they would be discovered by the Black Panther Tribe.
The Black Panther Tribe were Dark Beastmen. Their innate talents were very formidable, just like the Death Soldiers of the Human Race. Because of this, they were a race that specialized in dealing with the Death Soldiers of the Human Race. After the Beast King knew about the Radiant Church's plan, he immediately sent some 8th rank experts from the Black Panther Tribe to scout the water sources of the camp every day. As long as a Human was discovered, the Black Panther Tribe wouldn't be able to touch them.
On the third day after the Beastman army entered the Purcell Duchy, the Black Panther Tribe discovered that the Radiant Church had poisoned their water sources. Therefore, they immediately reported this to the Beast King. The Beast King also knew that he didn't have much time left, so he immediately sent the Hawk Tribe to the Iksa Territory to make an appointment with the Beastmen.
At this time, the people of the Purcell Family had already fled to Stony Mountain. When they arrived, Zhao Hai was already waiting for them.
When Evan saw Zhao Hai, his eyes couldn't help but turn red. Then he said, "Zhao Hai, I want to thank you. If it weren't for you, then I might have already died."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Uncle, you don't blame me. Let's go to the courtyard on the mountain. Then we'll head to Golden Island." Evan also knew that there was no time to waste, so he immediately nodded and followed Zhao Hai up the mountain.
After arriving at the mountain, Zhao Hai didn't have Evan and the others head to Golden Island from the Space. Instead, he wanted to use the Hawk Tribe to send Evan and the others to the seaside before taking a boat to Golden Island.
This time, the people following Evan weren't all from the Purcell clan, there were also a lot of the Purcell clan's Foreign Elders. Although these people were very loyal to the Purcell clan and didn't leave Evan's side, Zhao Hai still didn't feel at ease with them. It was impossible for him to spread the secret of the Space to everyone.
The reason why he told Origin Sword Saint about it before was because Zhao Hai knew that the Space was too attractive to the Origin Sword Saint.
The energy inside the Space was very active, moreover, it was also very abundant. For 9th ranks, it was a natural place for them to cultivate. It was possible that they would be able to break through their final bottleneck and obtain more strength. For a 9th rank expert, the Space was too attractive. Because of this, Zhao Hai wasn't afraid that Origin Sword Saint would tell others about it.
After resting for a while in the Bluestone Villa, Zhao Hai had the others board the Hawk Tribe. Then he also boarded the Hawk Tribe's Foreign Elders and escorted them to the seaside boat. Zhao Hai didn't follow them, he wanted to stay and watch the show.
After the Radiant Church put the medicine into the Beastmen's water source, all that was left was to wait for the Beastmen to come and fetch water.
However, what made the people from the Radiant Church anxious was that the Beastmen might have already fetched water the day before. Because of this, the Beastmen didn't come and fetch water for the entire day.
It wasn't until evening that the Beastmen came to fetch water. Moreover, they were able to fetch a lot of water. This made the people from the Radiant Church excited.
After the meal, the usually noisy Beastman camp was surprisingly quiet. The people from the Radiant Church couldn't help but enter the camp to take a look. They discovered that a lot of Beastmen had already fallen to the ground. Just as they were about to kill two people, an eagle's cry was suddenly heard. This scared the people from the Radiant Church, they were very clear that there were still Hawks in the sky. These people immediately turned around and left the camp to report back to the Radiant Church.
After making sure that these people had left, the Beastman camp became lively once again. However, this time, they weren't here to play, they were here to prepare for the Radiant Church's attack.
They were very clear that once the Radiant Church's army knew that they had successfully poisoned the Beastmen, they would certainly send people to attack. When the time comes, the Beastmen would be able to eliminate those people first. Then they would go all out and destroy the Radiant Church's army.
When Runebeck received this news, he immediately gave the order for an all-out attack. However, they didn't know that the Beastmen had already set up a trap for them. They were just waiting for them to enter.
What happened next was very simple. The army that the Radiant Church sent to receive the spoils of war plunged into the Beastmen's trap and were completely destroyed. Then the Beastmen's army marched straight towards the Aksu Empire's hinterland. The two armies were like two sharp arrows as they rushed towards the Aksu Empire's capital. Along the way, they didn't encounter any resistance. This was because all of the armies that were sent out were destroyed by the Beastmen.
This time, the entire continent was shocked. The Radiant Church was shocked, the Aksu Empire was shocked as well. At this point, the Aksu Empire had already lost all ability to resist.
This time, the Beastmen managed to eliminate nearly 2 million soldiers of the Aksu Empire. This was almost equal to the entire national defense of the Aksu Empire. One must know that the Aksu Empire had already lost a lot of people in Golden Island. At this point, the Aksu Empire was very weak.
The Beastmen didn't go too far this time. They didn't attack the commoners, instead, they directly attacked the Nobles, especially the Nobles who were related to the Radiant Church.
Moreover, every time they attacked a city of the Aksu Empire, the Beastmen would make a ruckus. The reason why they attacked the Aksu Empire was because the Radiant Church had cut off their food supply.
Originally, there were rumors about this in the continent. However, these rumors were only speculations, they weren't confirmed yet. Now that the Beastmen had confirmed it, how could it be wrong? At this time, the Radiant Church had become a target of scorn in the Aksu Empire.
The Beastmen's attack this time was also very interesting. They didn't want to enslave the Humans, they only wanted to steal food. Because of this, they didn't rob the commoners, instead, they robbed the Nobles' food as well as the Aksu Empire's national granary.
In fact, the Beastmen's actions were equivalent to robbing the commoners' food. This was because robbing the Aksu Empire's national granary would certainly affect the Aksu Empire's food market. In the end, the price of food would rise, and the ones who would suffer would be the commoners. However, the commoners didn't want to rob them. They were already very lucky that the Beastmen didn't rob them, they didn't have the heart to think about other things.
At this point, the Aksu Empire couldn't collapse. They had no choice but to ask for help from the Rosen Empire. The Rosen Empire also took this opportunity to negotiate with the Beastmen.
Naturally, the Rosen Empire didn't want to clean up the Radiant Church's mess. Because of this, they didn't want to directly fight the Beastmen. Instead, they wanted to directly negotiate with the Beastmen.
Although the Beastmen hadn't yet attacked the Aksu Empire's capital, they were almost there. But when the Rosen Empire sent someone to negotiate, they immediately stopped. After all, the Rosen Empire's strength was still there. They had to be careful when dealing with them. If the Rosen Empire got involved in this war, then the Beastmen wouldn't have a good ending.
The Beastman King was a very shrewd person. This time, their attack on the Humans could be said to be very smooth. Although they lost some manpower, compared to their previous attacks, their losses were the least. At this time, if the Humans agreed to sell them food at a fair price, then the Beastmen wouldn't mind retreating.
Just like what Zhao Hai thought, the Beastmen didn't want to occupy the Human world. They weren't interested in the Human world. In their opinion, the Prairie was their home, their roots. If they were to enter the Human world, then sooner or later, the brave Beastmen would become as weak as the Humans.
In the eyes of the Beastmen, the Humans were very weak. Because of this, the Beastmen preferred to drink and sing in the Prairie.
And the Beast King's decision was also largely due to Zhao Hai. Before Zhao Hai left the Beastmen's camp, Wales had already told the Beast King about Zhao Hai's strength. Naturally, the Beast King wanted to know more about Zhao Hai's strength. Wales also told the Beast King about it, making the Beast King pay attention to Zhao Hai.
Although the Beast King appreciated Zhao Hai before, he didn't care too much about Zhao Hai. But now that he heard Wales say that Zhao Hai had an undead army, he couldn't help but pay attention to Zhao Hai.
If there was an enemy that the Beastmen didn't want to deal with, then it would naturally be the undead. This was because they couldn't get any benefits from the undead. Moreover, if they couldn't eliminate a Dark Mage, then they would offend him. For the Beastmen, this wasn't worth it. A Dark Mage could go deep into the Prairie and continuously create undead. This was a very terrifying matter.
The Beast King also understood that they were currently in Human territory. If they were to provoke the Roland Empire along with a terrifying Dark Mage like Zhao Hai, then it wouldn't be a good thing for the Beastmen. Moreover, their main purpose in attacking the Aksu Empire was food. As long as the food problem was solved, then even if they returned to the Beastman Prairie, nobody would say anything. After all, they had already fished up a lot of things.
The purpose of the Roland Empire's negotiation this time was to have the Beastmen withdraw their troops. Additionally, the Roland Empire's Emperor believed in Zhao Hai's words and stockpiled a lot of food in advance. Because of this, they negotiated with the Beastmen to have them withdraw their troops. In the future, they would provide food to the Beastmen at a fair price.
No country liked war, especially this kind of war. This war was instigated by the Radiant Church, but in the end, someone else had to clean up their mess. This made the other Empires very unhappy. If they were to send more people to fight, then how many people would die? They didn't want this to happen.
