Chapter 852: Alliance!
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Those Dino-Warriors left behind continued to fight with all they had, however, they were still annihilated by the sheer might of Yue Zhong's group. The tunnel was thus reclaimed after a long, arduous battle.
After regaining the tunnel, the Winged elites began to swiftly fly out.
Outside, all over the cliff, Dino-warriors were retreating and fleeing.
The Winged elites continued to fire arrows at the retreating Dino-warriors, causing some of them to fall off and plunge to their deaths.
At this time, the Dino-warriors were caught in a disadvantageous position. Their bodies were crawling down the cliff, and it was hard to maneuver. Faced with the rain of arrows, they could not defend themselves.
Every Winged elite was filled with hatred towards these Dino-warriors. Under their frenzied assault, the 600-over Dino-people were shot down.
At the center of the honeycomb city, Lai Wei descended from the sky, her entire body covered in blood. She came up to Shailene and reported, "Your Majesty, we have killed all the Dino-people!!"
Shailene's face was filled with joy, and she flapped her wings and announced in her melodious voice, "Everybody! After the efforts of our warriors, the invaders have been wiped out!!"
Shailene had an interesting ability, which was that her voice could travel throughout the Winged Race, and hearing her words, those who were hiding in various corners felt relieved.
"That's great! Those monsters are finally dead!"
"Long live Your Majesty!!"
"Long live your Majesty!!"
"Long live your Majesty!!"
"..."
A number of Winged citizens began to erupt in cheers and celebration, and at this moment, everyone was filled with respect for their Queen.
The fact that Shailene could become Queen was also largely due to this innate ability. Only those with the Queen bloodline had this ability to bolster morale and appease hearts.
"Thank goodness!! We've won!!"
Shailene looked down at the celebrating citizens, her heart filled with part-joy, part-trepidation. This time, the attack of the Stegosaurus Kingdom had been sudden, and the entire city had almost been destroyed. If it were not for Yue Zhong and Luo Qing Qing, this place would have been a field of corpses.
Shailene's heart trembled slightly as she sighed, "What a pity, our Winged Race is still too weak!
There were only 80, 000 of them, and the entire base could not compare to the Dino-race. They did not even have a single Type 5 Divine Warrior. This time, there had been at most 2, 000 Dino-warriors in the invading party. And yet, they had almost succeeded in wiping out the Winged Race. They were still a weak species of this world after all.
"If only Yue Zhong was part of our Winged Race!" Suddenly, Shailene had such a thought, thinking about his combat prowess, even her blood started to pump faster.
Inside a lavish palace, the entire upper echelon of the Winged Race was gathered. The atmosphere was vastly different from when Yue Zhong and the rest first arrived. Many of the Winged Race members were looking at Yue Zhong with fervent gazes, their hearts fluttering.
In this world where the strong lorded over the weak, powerful people captured hearts easily. In this weak Winged Race where the females were more than the males, they were easily stirred. Copulating with strong people usually ensured better genes in their offspring. This was what caused them to have a desire towards Yue Zhong, eyeing him like a bunch of perverts towards an absolute beauty.
Yue Zhong did not hold back and requested his reward from Dorothy, "Elder Dorothy, when will you give me the 1, 200 Winged elites?"
Dorothy looked at him and replied respectfully, "Sir Yue Zhong, I will get them ready by tomorrow."
To her, this man, who had Greenie, Lightning and Turtle, all Type 4 Mutant Beasts, was more frightening than Luo Qing Qing. Both Greenie and Lightning could hunt and kill Type 5 Divine Warriors, while Turtle was the best siege weapon. With his ability to summon them, Yue Zhong was practically a mobile army himself. Therefore, her attitude towards him was even more respectful than her own Queen.
Having obtained what he wanted, Yue Zhong nodded his head with satisfaction, "Good!"
Dorothy then asked with a strange glint, "Sir Yue Zhong, are you going to be staying a few more days, and allow us to host you?
Yue Zhong immediately rejected, "No, I'll be leaving tomorrow. The Stegosaurus Kingdom knows about this place, and it's no longer safe to stay here. I intend to bring my people to Cloud Region, and we can't afford to waste even a single day."
This time, the victory of the Stegosaurus Army sent to the Winged Race was a close shave. Fortunately, they only had a Mid-Grade Dino-General in their midst. Had there been 2 or even 3, Yue Zhong would have long since been killed. Even if he evolved to the Type 5 stage, and relied on the enhancement of the light-gold Sun Armor, there was no guarantee that he could kill one in close-combat.
Dorothy revealed a thoughtful expression, "Cloud Region?"
Doreen came up to Luo Qing Qing, bowing deeply as she spoke with sincerity, "Storm Queen, please forgive our travesty earlier. I'd like to apologize for our earlier foolishness!"
Hai Xi, who was standing beside Luo Qing Qing, had a look of disdain, as she spoke sharply, "Just a sentence and you want to us to forget everything? Remember, you guys were about to abduct our Queen to hand her over to the Stegosaurus Kingdom. Do you think an apology would cut it?"
Hearing that, many of the Winged Race elites had looks of embarrassment and shame. They had indeed gone overboard. Now that they were being mocked and ridiculed, they had no words.
Luo Qing Qing frowned slightly and barked, "Hai Xi, enough!"
Hai Xi then kept quiet, although her expression was one of unwillingness.
Luo Qing Qing turned to Doreen and said, "Let's forget about all these ugliness between us. I hope that there will never be a second time!"
After all, the Winged Queen Shailene was Luo Qing Qing's good friend. In the past, the Winged Race did assist Storm Valley on multiple occasions as well. Thus, she was not willing to break this alliance apart and push them towards the enemy.
Doreen bowed once more in gratitude, "Thank you for your magnanimity!"
After which, Doreen returned to her position.
Dorothy suddenly spoke, "Yue Zhong, our Winged Race would like to become your ally! What do you think?"
Yue Zhong touched his chin and fell into thought when he heard that, "Alliance, eh?"
Dorothy's eyes flashed with a strange glint, "Our Winged elites are the best scouts. With your strength, if we were to become allies, we definitely can become a powerful force, and join forces to resist the Stegosaurus Kingdom."
Yue Zhong pondered for a while, before shaking his head to turn her down, "I'm heading to Cloud Region, while you guys want to stay here in Green Region, there's no point in the alliance."
Dorothy immediately replied with resolution, "Yue Zhong, if we were to become allies, our Winged Race is willing to follow you to the Cloud Region."
"Great Elder!!"
"Great Elder!! You must reconsider!! We're not familiar with Cloud Region at all, if we were to go there, we could be slaughtered!"
"That's right! Great Elder, we had better stay here in Green Region. This time, all the Dino-warriors who had invaded had been killed. There's no one else who knows about our location. Even if we abandon this mountain cave, we can find another place to reside."
"..."
The various Elders started to speak up in order to dissuade her. The Winged Race had spent countless years in Green Region, their home, they knew where to hunt and where was safe. Their ancestors had paid the price to obtain intelligence and information, accumulated throughout the years. If they were to leave Green Region, there were Ferocious Beasts and Mutant Beasts everywhere, who knew how long it would take for them to re-establish their roots again.
Dorothy eyed Yue Zhong and spoke solemnly, "Enough! Green Region is no longer safe. We have to leave here now!! Sir Yue Zhong, are you willing to be our ally?"
Yue Zhong smiled lightly, "Sure! If you come with us to Cloud Region, we can be allies!"
Although the Winged Race was not strong compared to the Stegosaurus Kingdom, they were more than enough compared to his own human troops. With such an ally, it would alleviate many things.
Dorothy heaved a sigh of relief and smiled lightly, "Many thanks, Yue Zhong!!"
Luo Qing Qing shot Yue Zhong a glare, as she thought hatefully, "This fellow is getting all the benefits!"
This time, Luo Qing Qing had come in order to bring their ally, the Winged Race, away from Green Region. Who would have expected for things to turn out like this, and the Winged Race actually becoming Yue Zhong's ally. If it wasn't for her bargaining for 200 Winged elites from Yue Zhong, this trip would have been a useless one.
After confirming the details, the palace threw a large banquet in order to celebrate.
Yue Zhong partook and enjoyed himself with the food provided, before heading back to his room to rest. It had been an intense day, and he was extremely exhausted.
