Chapter 502: Soros's Outrageous Theory
Qiansui definitely didn't think that much. He was indeed smart, there was no doubt about that, but at this stage, Qiansui was only at the level of a child in terms of age and intelligence, or a relatively smart child.
It was most likely that it acted on its own instinct after realizing that Zhou Xu's safety was threatened.
By some strange coincidence, he took a step that could be described as a 'god-like move'.
But up to this point, it only created a fleeting opportunity for them.
What really seized this opportunity and made this "God's move" a success was the correct cooperation between Zhou Chongshan and Zhou Xu without hesitation.
On the Lizardmen's side, if Thoros and Gruul had such a tacit understanding before, the situation would probably be different now.
Of course, this behavior of theirs is not innate.
This is thanks to the tactical training that Zhou Xu arranges for them on a daily basis, which actually includes various tactical analyses and deductions.
A large amount of tactical knowledge has been instilled into their brains in advance.
The situation on the battlefield is indeed changing rapidly, but the essence remains the same. As long as you have enough knowledge in your mind, you can always find a similar case.
This is enough for you to have a general understanding of the situation in front of you in the shortest time possible. On this basis, making judgments and adjustments based on the actual situation is always more reliable than relying entirely on on-the-spot performance.
The change in the situation on the battlefield put the initiative back into the hands of the Da Zhou troops.
The high priest had a gloomy face and used his own strength to once again break the big bones and the second bone into pieces of bones on the ground.
However, in the next second, the bones scattered on the ground were put together again.
The high priest who saw this scene was extremely annoyed, and before the big bone and the second bone were reassembled, he burst out with power again and swept over.
The two large bones that had not yet been combined were more fragile than usual and were easily broken up by the high priest.
However, at this moment, Zhou Xu was completely exhausted with the high priest, and the power of mantras broke out again.
[Controlled by Skeleton Beast Soldiers! ]
During this process, Zhou Xu only felt a heat in his nostrils and a stream of blood flowed down his nose, making his face even paler.
In order to save the power of mantra as much as possible, Zhou Xu didn't even use his enhanced skills.
Because as of now, no matter whether it is strengthening control or speed, it cannot change the fate of being captured by the opposite high priest.
In this case, it would be better to save this part of the strength and fight the opponent to the end! In this process of continuous consumption, Zhou Xu's strength is close to the limit, and it can even be said that he is beginning to overdraw.
At this point, he was just holding on with his strong willpower.
Sensing the actions of the high priest, Qiansui, who was trying to curb the actions of the Swift Dragon Cavalry, did not hesitate for a moment and let out a terrifying roar!
Visible circles of sound waves continued to spread along with its roar.
In an instant, the high priest who was hit by the sound waves felt his brain go blank, and the ability he was exercising was ruthlessly interrupted.
Seizing this opportunity, the big bone and the second bone were finally reorganized.
The impact of the sound waves made the high priest, who had just come to his senses, feel a splitting headache and even a buzzing in his ears.
This state continued until he saw the two successfully reassembled skeleton beasts.
From this moment on, his headache started to hurt more.
He didn't even have time to curse, because the two skeleton beasts were already rushing towards him, and he was the only one who could stop the attack of the two skeleton beasts.
Thinking of this, the high priest couldn't help but feel a little sad.
As a race created by gods, the Lizardmen were extremely prosperous in ancient times.
However, with the destruction of the old civilization, it has now fallen to this point! After another burst of means, blocking the attack of the two skeleton beasts and dispersing them, the high priest's breathing became obviously rapid, and a large amount of sweat appeared on his body.
If it were at the beginning, as long as he concentrated, the sonic attack of the extraordinary creature would not be able to shake him at all. However, his ability was directly interrupted by the sonic attack just now.
It was clear from this that the high priest's condition had deteriorated to what extent.
At this moment, unlike the high priest who was full of sorrow and lamenting the changing times and the increasing decline of their Lizardmen clan, Soros, after experiencing several rounds of emotional ups and downs, has now begun to think about his way out.
Risking being beaten to death by their high priest, Soros gritted his teeth and spoke...
"High Priest, the current situation is not good. Why don't we retreat first and head south to join our army..."
Soros had only said half of his words when the high priest looked at him as if he wanted to tear him apart alive! "Soros, do you know what stupid things you are saying?!"
The Lizardmen are a religious race who serve the god who created them, and the temple where their god sleeps is right here.
To evacuate from here is tantamount to abandoning the temple, which is equivalent to betraying God!
If he had said this in the past, he would have executed Soros! Soros would never have dared to say this in normal times, but now he was completely desperate, so he said this outrageous statement.
After all, judging from the current situation, if they continue to stay here and fight to the death, they will probably die.
He was going to die anyway, so he might as well give it a try, maybe he could convince the high priest? With this thought in mind, and bearing the high priest's terrifying gaze, Soros gritted his teeth and continued to speak out his thoughts.
"The inner hall where my Lord is sleeping is protected by a barrier. Even we cannot enter, so it is impossible for that group of humans to enter either."
"Before our Lord awakens, the first thing we must do is to stay alive. If we can't even survive, how can we serve our Lord when he awakens?!"
I have to say that Soros's remarks really hit the nail on the head.
Although his remarks were completely blasphemous, the high priest could not deny that there was some truth in what Soros said.
However, the more important reason is that their gods have been silent for too many years. Even for the most devout believers, it is difficult for their faith not to be shaken.
The fact that the high priest did not kill Soros on the spot for making such outrageous remarks can at least explain this problem.
"High Priest, please consider the overall situation!"
As he spoke, Soros knelt down.
The critical situation left the high priest no time to hesitate. He looked at Soros who was kneeling there, and then his eyes swept across the battlefield where the situation had changed. Finally, the high priest squeezed out those two words from between his teeth.
"retreat!"
