My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 435: Chapter 301: Tianqi Eternal Life (4K)

A certain young Featherman warrior, looking utterly disheartened, had left, leaving behind only the treasure he received as payment, still emanating a tempting luster.

Duo Lai put away the treasure, glancing around once more, the Feathermen still bore a dumbfounded and foolish appearance, and it slipped into contemplation.

'Could it be that I, Benduo, exerted too much strength?'

'But it was clearly you who told me to give it my all.'

Duo Lai felt wronged.

Moreover, this guy was a bit too weak; although he was already an "Imagery Level half-step" warrior, he conceded after barely a couple of exchanges.

"This does seem a bit weak, but it's not a lack of strength, rather a lack of fighting will and experience."

Mu Yuan, through the snippets of Duo Lai's words, could also make a rough judgment.

Behaviors like 'standing still after launching a big move' and 'only feeling fear when trapped' all highlighted this Featherman's lack of combat experience, which was very scarce.

The experience of fighting for his life could well be zero.

This wasn't surprising, as Featherman's Hometown had been sealed off for a long time, without external contact. And within the Featherman's Hometown, the number of Feathermen was actually limited, and a martial spirit didn't seem to prevail either.

Yu Baisheng's stats might not be shabby, possibly on par with Demonic Flame Wang Qi, but compared to the latter, his experience and will fell far short.

Moreover,

"These Feathermen seem to be indigenous inhabitants, not born from a military breed." Compared to the bred warriors, they naturally possess self-awareness, have undergone years of learning, and can undertake many jobs besides fighting.

However, compared to military breeds, they also have disadvantages, lacking innate combat valor and the heart to forge ahead on the path of battle.

One could refer to Daisy for more details.

When Daisy reaches the Four-order Peak, her 'stats' will definitely be higher than those of this Featherman warrior, but her comprehensive combat power... should not be expected to be substantial.

Mu Yuan was actually hoping to establish an alliance with the Featherman Dynasty, as in regions surrounded by monster power, any Vitality Force is a natural ally.

However, the Featherman Dynasty did not seem to have any interest in cooperation.

Forget an alliance; even basic trade was not something the Featherman Dynasty was prepared to engage in—even though their territory was quite small and there must inevitably be some resource shortages despite being self-sufficient.

Mu Yuan could somehow understand this.

This place was deep in the wilderness, and just the fact that they could survive was a commendable feat. Over the span of decades, centuries, or even more extended periods, they might have grown accustomed to this mode of survival.

Yet, such a mode of survival could only ensure temporary safety; in Mu Yuan's view, it was akin to a slow death.

Of course, he was simply an outsider and not fully aware of the true Situation of the Featherman Dynasty. Who knows, perhaps the Featherman Dynasty was preparing some grand scheme?

"It is said that our Featherman Dynasty was extremely glorious hundreds of years ago and constructed numerous Sky Cities," Yu·Rongyue introduced the Featherman Dynasty's glorious history.

However, while he talked about these historical events, he lacked a sense of reality. He and his generation, including the older and even older generations, had opened their eyes in Featherman's Hometown. Regarding the once supposedly glorious Featherman Dynasty, they could only grasp fragments from historical records.

Sometimes they even wondered if such a world truly existed.

It was precisely because they saw the vast world and broad expanses described in records that they were unwilling to confine themselves to a small corner.

Feathermen were meant to soar high in the sky.

Now, they were only like small birds with broken wings, trapped in a web.

"I am very eager to communicate and interact with your Tianyuan Territory, it's just that Her Majesty the Queen has no such desire, and I dare not disobey," he said, his gaze involuntarily drifting in the direction Yu Baisheng had left, looking far into the distance.

This young generation's strongest, a leader of the Radical Faction, was one of the rare few who dared to go against the Queen's command.

However, Yu Baisheng seemed to have suffered a massive blow; before he left, he was muttering disconsolately about "danger, the outside world is indeed too dangerous."

Seeing this, not only was it unlikely he would continue to lead the Radical Faction, it was feared he would become even more conservative than the Conservative Faction itself.

A few hours later, Duo Lai left Featherman's Hometown with a communication token in his possession.

Behind him, space rippled faintly.

The entire entrance to the Featherman Dynasty, along with the outdoor structure 'Vitality Spirit Spring,' vanished without a trace. No matter how much Duo Lai looked, he could not find the slightest discord in the space.

Without the location pinpointed by the Guide Compass, even Duo Lai would hardly be able to find that entrance again.

This showed that the Featherman Dynasty's method of concealment was extremely sophisticated.

"After all, the Featherman Dynasty was a great nation before the Cataclysm occurred," Mu Yuan believed, despite many Feathermen being skeptical about their own history.

After verifying from multiple sources, there indeed used to be a Featherman Dynasty in history.

Following the fall of the Featherman Dynasty, this Featherman's Hometown could very well be one of the remnants of the surviving populace of the Featherman Dynasty. It might even be the only surviving group.

Setting aside their strength, they surely possessed an abundant heritage.

Lord Shepherd also expressed envy.

He wished to conceal the Tianyuan Territory like the Featherman Dynasty, reemerging only after Duo Lai, Dead Bone, and other generals ascended to legendary status. Unfortunately, he lacked such heritage.

So he could only try to settle the surrounding instabilities as much as possible.

…

Featherman Dynasty, at the palace.

A young female Featherman, with a complex expression, walked in here.

She was a leader of the Conservative Faction among the Attack Feathermen, like Yu Baisheng, a descendant of Her Majesty the Queen.
