"There's nothing wrong with striking the enemy blitzkrieg and reducing their top combat power to mitigate their disadvantage, but given our clan's strength, we can only strike at most two countries."
"Even if we assume the best possible outcome, where the human side loses two High-ranking Dragon Knights and a High-ranking Dragon, and we don't suffer any losses, our paper strength is still no match for that of humans."
After all, Tunguska still had no hope for the outcome of this war.
In other words, none of the three superior dragon knights of the Winged People were optimistic about this war.
It’s just that Campbell questioned Salem’s decision in front of everyone, while Tunguska questioned it in private.
"There's nothing we can do. There's always been a deep-seated feud between the Winged and humans. Now that humans are on the verge of victory, we can't just surrender."
"Moreover, the magicians of the Supervisory Office are almost overwhelmed. They have even lost the ability to report to the outside world. Now, if we want to understand anything, we need to use our mental power to wake them up."
Not only that, Salem also told Tunguska about Yunhailong's serious injury and Krober's information.
"Telling me all this will have no other effect than strengthening my resolve to surrender to humanity."
Otherwise, how could Tungus be a magician? His thinking is indeed quite rational and calm.
"..."
After a long silence, Salem said:
"So what suggestions do you have?"
Salem had just heard what Tunguska said and had originally raised his fist in dissatisfaction, but when he remembered that this guy was his own brother, he finally gave up the idea of beating him up.
"Surrender, maybe you and I can survive."
Tunguska's calm voice sounded.
"Impossible! We bear the blood feud of our Winged Tribe ancestors! How can we surrender to humans?"
"The hegemony of the Winged People must be achieved in the hands of you and me. You and I also have the responsibility to fight for it!"
Salem was extremely emotional, and his voice was full of anger.
"But if we don't surrender, we will be completely wiped out and won't even have a chance to seek revenge."
Tunguska's tone remained calm, but it carried an irresistible persuasiveness.
As soon as Salem opened his mouth, he was silenced by Tunguska's words.
"The prerequisite for struggle is that you must live!"
This sentence made Salem fall into deep thought.
How could he not know that Tunguska's suggestion was undoubtedly the wisest and least damaging option.
However, he is the king of the Winged People, carrying the history and shame of the entire ethnic group, and also representing the pride and dignity of the Winged People.
Even if all the Winged People surrendered, he would never surrender.
His pride made it impossible for him to surrender to humans in exchange for his own survival, and he could not tolerate submitting to humans for the so-called "protection of the ethnic group."
Salem raised his head, looked into the distance with a determined gaze, and said:
"You have a point, but I must win a few victories to boost the morale of my tribe. What good suggestions do you have regarding the blitzkrieg of the human kingdom?"
Every Winged Person who chooses to surrender to humans has lost the glory and dignity deep in their hearts.
And he, the King of the Winged People and the Son of the Sun, will never surrender!
Tungus looked at his brother and placed his fingers on the symbols of the Holy Mithril Kingdom and the Topal Kingdom.
"As for the two of them, their countries are adjacent to each other, so it would be easy for them to fight. As for the Emerald Kingdom, forget about it. It's best not to touch it."
He took the chess piece placed on the Emerald Kingdom's territory and threw it aside.
"That human named Krober is a bit peculiar. It's best not to involve him in any of your actions."
"I have a feeling that guy will never be just an ordinary human king."
Salem looked at the map with a serious expression. To be more precise, he was looking at the location of the Emerald Kingdom area on the map.
"So is there still hope for me?"
After a long silence, Salem suddenly blurted out this sentence.
"It's hard to say. Maybe I'll win, but the chances of losing are pretty high."
Tungus adjusted his red robe.
He liked this color, just like the bright and vivid blood red of the people he killed in his youth.
"To be honest, I still don't understand why you insist on going to war with humans. You know you're going to lose, but you still want to fight. Isn't that courting death?"
Tunguska looked at Salem's back and asked in confusion.
Even with his intelligence, he couldn't figure out what was going on in his brother's mind.
"Defeat is inevitable? We must fight even if we lose! The Winged People have no other choice. Either the floating island chain falls, or we fight to the death."
"I don't like to slowly wait for death. I would rather die proudly on the battlefield as a warrior and return to my mother's arms with honor."
"Alright, whatever you want. Just remember to call me whenever the battle starts. I'll fight alongside you."
Tungus seemed to have thought of something and shook his head helplessly. This was why he didn't want to be king.
Those who are not strong enough can only become puppets called "kings".
After all, the wishes of the people are not something that can be easily undertaken. Just by listening to it, you can tell that this thing is definitely a troublesome thing.
Finally, he left the palace and returned to his room to prepare materials.
The original experiment can be put aside for the time being. Now he needs to prepare various magical materials for use on the battlefield.
Blood magic, this thing may sound like a particularly evil and cruel magic at first glance.
But in reality, blood magic itself is divided into good and bad sides.
The bad side is to manipulate the blood in the enemy's body to cause fatal injuries, or to heal the user's injuries by sucking blood.
But the principle behind this thing is actually very simple.
Let’s not talk about magical life forms, let’s talk about the levels below the level of fantasy beast knight.
For this kind of flesh and blood life form, most of their magic power is contained in their flesh and blood.
To be precise, they are all contained in the blood, but because muscles have blood vessels as channels for transporting blood, they are summarized as flesh and blood.
When he absorbs blood, he is actually only absorbing the magic power contained in it.
If it is a magical life form, he doesn't need to suck the other party's blood. If the other party doesn't mind, it's okay to suck other things.
The good side is that you can use blood to release some beneficial magic to friendly forces.
For example, he can use the blood of a giant earth demon bear as a medium to give his allies an aura of strength.
If the blood of the Swift Falcon is used as the medium, it can also give friendly forces a speed aura.
Among them, the higher the level of the blood itself, the stronger the effect it can gain.
Of course, this kind of thing is only available to those below the level of Fantasy Beast Knight.
Because magical life forms themselves have no blood, blood magic cannot affect them.
