Beast Throne

Chapter 657 Tolan and Feya

South of Wangting, the border of Baibing Grassland, where the army is located.

One hundred thousand cavalry lined up neatly on the grassland, quietly waiting for something.Of course, it is impossible for the vast territory of the White Ice Empire to have only [-] soldiers, but there are indeed only such people guarding the border now.

This is what Ulantu meant. When the demon army appeared, the White Ice Empire wanted to mobilize all the troops to the border to garrison, but Ulantu stopped it.The demons are very powerful in combat, and soldiers with weaker strength can only be used as rations by the demons.Instead of this, it is better to reduce the number of troops, select only the elite, and form a cavalry unit with super mobility.

Anyway, if the demons attack in a swarm regardless of the cost, even the whole army can't stop them here, at most they will die together.

A small troop of hundreds of people appeared from the horizon and slowly moved towards the barracks.Everyone in the White Ice Empire is good at riding, and they basically all ride when they travel, even the female relatives are no exception.On the other hand, due to the vast territory of the empire, the people of the White Ice Empire seldom move slowly when traveling. They usually walk as fast as they can, trying to shorten the time on the road as much as possible.

However, the situation of this small army was a little different. Among the nearly 100 people, less than 40 rode horses, and the rest all walked, and none of them wore shoes and had bare feet.Among the troops, there are also two huge carriages. Although they don't look particularly delicate, the size of the carriages is indeed ridiculously large. Each carriage needs four carefully selected horses to pull it, and it cannot move quickly.

It was probably because of these two carriages that the speed of the team could not be increased.

"Hmph, what a big air. They set off on the same day as you, but arrived 5 days later than you. Did they think it was a tour?" Before the barracks, Princess Dorothy said angrily.Strictly speaking, she belongs to a foreign race, so she has fewer scruples.And although other people also had such thoughts to some extent, none of them dared to speak out.

"Duoluo, don't say that." Wulantu looked around, with a warm smile on his face, "According to the ancient tradition of our Baibing Grassland, a successful priest should walk barefoot all over the grassland to Feel the heavens. The two high priests did not relax their requirements for the apprentices, so they came a little slower."

There is no doubt that the slow-moving small army in front is the two high priests from the royal court, High Priest Tolan and High Priest Feya.These two people originally set off from the royal court at the same time as Wulantu, but they arrived five days later than Wulantu, which was indeed slow enough.

Of course, Ulantu followed someone's advice and led his troops out to show respect since the day before yesterday. Today is the third time they have done so.After waiting in vain for two days, the soldiers may be able to accept it, but it is hard to say how they feel about the officers and generals who are at the front of the line together with Ulantu, as well as the heirs of the major tribes.

"That can't be like this, when is this." Wulan Mingzhu couldn't help it anymore, and whispered: "In the past so long, I didn't see the high priests sending apprentices out to travel. When is this, devil They may call at any time, how can we walk so slowly, we can't wait here all day."

"That's right, we even found such a big two carriages. When did our grassland people look like the south." Gai Lou, who had always admired Ulan Pearl, immediately said, with a strong disdain in his tone.

"Don't say any more, don't go too far." Ulantu said in a more emphatic tone, then got off his horse and was the first to meet him.The others looked at me and I looked at you, exchanged opinions silently, and got off their horses helplessly, and followed Ulantu.

In fact, Ulantu knew very well that the reason why the two high priests took such a huge carriage was because they didn't want people to know that they came with Tuva who was frozen in the ice.If you change to a smaller carriage, it won't fit at all, and you won't be able to pull it.As for why two carriages are needed, it is impossible for two high priests, one man and one woman, to ride in the same carriage, even if they are both very old.

"High Priest Tolan, High Priest Fuya, welcome to your arrival." Ulantu was as enthusiastic as if he hadn't seen the two high priests for a long time, and he showed his excellent negotiating skills as a prince as always.

Wow!Except for Ulantu, everyone else knelt on one knee and lined up on both sides of Ulantu.The status of the high priest is so high that even Ulan Pearl can't show off her princess status.Because Ulantu is the commander-in-chief of the entire army, he can be equal to the high priest.

"His Royal Highness, you have worked hard. Get up." The huge house-like carriage stopped, and the voice of the high priest Tolan came from the carriage, but the two high priests did not show up and stayed in the carriage.

Even for a high priest with a high status, this is very rude.No matter what, Ulantu is also the helm of the empire in the future. It is almost an insult if someone sends out to greet you but doesn't show up.So much so that after hearing these words, even the apprentice priests and knights who came with the two high priests were a little surprised, not to mention the generals who came to greet them.The high priest has a noble status, but they recognize Ulantu's leader more in their hearts.

However, Ulantu didn't mean to be offended in the slightest. He still smiled and voluntarily moved out of the way to let the carriage go forward.Ulantu didn't move, and the others couldn't do anything. They could only grit their teeth and get out of the way, watching the two huge carriages slowly enter the barracks.

Well, they would never know that the two high priests were not arrogant, but that they did not dare to risk others discovering what was in the carriage.If they were allowed to see the tragic situation of the high priest of Tuva, even the other high priests would lose face. After all, they are together, and the family ugliness cannot be exposed.

For ordinary soldiers, the high priest is still the spokesperson of the gods in their hearts, not just a simple high status.The two high priests were willing to bow down and come to the barracks, which still flattered them.It was just that they were slightly disappointed that the two high priests did not show up from the beginning to the end. They came to the back of the barracks to hide in the large tent that had been prepared, and they were closely guarded.The soldiers were not given a chance to see their dignity at all.

The generals were a little dissatisfied, and the soldiers were a little disappointed. If the two high priests, Tolan and Feya, were smart enough, they might just need to take the initiative to walk out of the big tent and offer a few words of kind condolence to resolve this emotion.But they didn't. On the one hand, neither of them had the awareness of this aspect, and on the other hand, it was Ulantu's deliberate arrangement.

Tolan and Fuya came here, of course, to find a way to solve the plight of the high priest of Tuva. The only way is of course to ask Wu Tong, who knows the most.But things didn't go as smoothly as expected. Before departure, Wulantu vowed that he would be able to convince his "good friend" Suzaku. Unexpectedly, after the two came to the barracks, they didn't even see Wu Tong's face. .Whenever they asked Wu Lantu, the latter always looked distressed, and only said that he had tried his best, and Wu Tong was busy and didn't have time to see anyone.

Who are the two high priests? They haven't been treated like this for decades, yet someone dares to refuse their request to meet and talk.The two of them were very angry when they heard it. The grumpy High Priest Fuya even wanted to go and arrest Wu Tong, but was finally persuaded by Tolan.In comparison, the High Priest of Toland was a little bit smarter, knowing that this was not their home field, and if they acted rashly, it might cause unnecessary consequences.

Waiting day by day, disappointed day by day, the anger of the two high priests also increased day by day.In the end, even High Priest Toland, who had been persuading Feya to calm down, couldn't bear it anymore.But just when the two could bear it no longer and were about to make a desperate attempt to tie Wu Tong here, the person they had always wanted to see appeared on their own initiative.

"Oh, the two high priests have been waiting for a long time, and they are really busy and can't get away." Inexplicably, Wu Tong suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, with an appearance that they had met for a long time but were never free.

"You..." Fuya was startled, and didn't even know what to say for a while.Wu Tong's arrival was so sudden that Wulantu had no news in advance, and the soldiers guarding outside the tent did not report.At this moment, Fuya was just adding energy to the ice that sealed Tuva, when Wu Tong who fell from the sky bumped into her.An old lady stroking a nearly naked old man through an ice cube, well, no one has seen this scene.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Wu Tong smiled, "Knowing that the two high priests were looking for me, I was afraid of wasting time, so I didn't disturb others, and came here in a hurry, so I didn't frighten you. Tsk tsk, this is a picture Is the High Priest Va? The situation doesn't look very good!"

Wu Tong talked to himself, and walked forward while talking, touched the piece of cold ice, and even tried to burn it with fire.I don't know what kind of power is contained in this piece of ice, the temperature is terribly low.If it were someone else, maybe just touching it would leave the arm on it.

Wu Tong knew him well, but High Priest Fuya couldn't do it.In particular, Wulantu didn't say anything beforehand, leaving Fuya at a loss as to what Wu Tong meant.This contrast also made it rare for her not to explode and suppress her violent temper.

Wu Tong's arrival could be hidden from those guarding soldiers, but it was impossible to hide it from High Priest Tolan.Just as Wu Tong was talking nonsense, Tolan hurried over, holding a sheep's skull stick in his hand. He probably thought Wu Tong was here for a surprise attack.But as soon as he appeared, Tolan was stunned by the weird scene in front of him.Because he saw Wu Tong talking to Fu Ya with a smile on his face, the two of them were like friends that Dolan hadn't seen, so he threw the stick in his hand in shock.

"High Priest Tolan, hello. Long time no see, your complexion is still as good as ever." After Tolan arrived, Wu Tong became more enthusiastic, and even took the initiative to pick up the sheep skull staff and hand it back to Tolan.

"You, hello." Tolan twitched the corner of his mouth and replied.

Looking at his expression, it seemed that he didn't know what he just said.
