Chapter 269 The Only Way Out Is The Fog Of Unbounded Demise.
?
Immediately, Chiron gave the order, "Retreat!"
His order was echoed across the battlefield.
At the same time, Chief Sokka the Orc chief suddenly opened his mouth abnormally wide.
*Cry of the War chief!*
*GROWLLLL!!!*
A loud growl rushed out of his mouth.
This was a strong sonic attack of incredible proportion.
It blasted the Cultivators away.
All within it's radius of impart was affected regardless of friend or fore.
Orcs usually fought with just raw spiritual energy as their did not know any techniques.
This was as a result of the lack of a functional civilization system that passed down techniques that could be beneficial.
Even if an Orc were to learn a technique, he would most likely refuse teaching anybody, include his own child as the Orc society was one of respect only die to power.
However, this Orc chief was currently performing a technique.
It was a very powerful one.
Many of those that had not even been in it's range of attack had been affected.
Their ears bleed, and Man rolled on the ground in pain.
The Bronze cultivators that had been unfortunate to have been caught in the blast held their chests tightly.
This was not an ordinary attack. It was one that aomed at attacking the soul.
At the moment, the Orc chief's power had totally dominated the battlefield.
Chiron from where he was could see it clearly.
The entire area that had been caught in the blast had been peeled off.
Like a snake shedding off it's skin.
Chiron laughed at this.
His initial plan for the Orc chief was not this.
He had intended to peel off the skin of the orc chief that was filled with naturally gifted Runes and use it all for himself as either a weapon or a coat that would protect him from danger.
However, things had progressed the way they currently did.
Then again, Chiron was not agree by this. Such was the way of the world.
Things did not always progress as initially planned.
At the moment, the Orc chief's power had been several times increased.
A god child was a vessel that was made to carry the Avatar of a god on earth when need be.
Their bodies were made to be able to carry the the divine essence of a supernatural being.
Only a select few could access their rich heritage power without housing a god's avatar.
However, they was another way to being out that ability. Although it was not as strong as when a god took over, it was not bad either.
This method required burning and sacrificing something of importance, and that was what Chiron activated in the Orc chief.
Chiron laughed wildly. The results were incredible.
If only he could find more god children, he would not mind using them in this light.
After all, the orc chief was currently dominating the Bronze rank.
And he was actually wining.
Dylan and Deamon went to help some of the other Lieutenants.
Captain Timi bleed badly from his chest.
There were deep claw marks in his chest, it was very bad.
However, by se unknown miracle, he was still alive.
He was brought before Chiron.
Chiron could see that his body glowed lightly.
It was not had for Chiron to trace it to a ring on the captain's hand.
This was one of the advayof being from one of the major tribes.
Apparently, he's life was being sustained by the ring.
"We are retreating!" Chiron ordered.
"But...*cough* where to!?" Captain Timi asked.
Chiron looked around.
It was either a run into the Orc Forest or into the fog of unbounded Demise.
Although the Orc chief was dominating the battlefield now, Chiron knew that this would not happen forever.
He was using a cheat by burning the rune marks on the body of the orc chief to establish the strength and dominance that the Orc chief currently had.
After meeting General Buckle, Chiron could tell that going into the Orc forest was not a good idea.
Besides, he was a prince.
General Buckle would definitely chase after him.
But the fog of unbounded Demise also came with its problems.
Chiron turned to the Dragon that was hurrying over, "good, and just in time too. I'll use you."
He turned to the troops, "we are retreating into the Fog of unbounded Demise."
They all paused and looked at him in surprise.
The Fig of unbounded Demise was exactly as it's name denoted.
Only demise waited for those that wanted to bask in the comfort of it's cloudy presence.
There were stories of people going into the place and never returning. Those that managed to come back out came out different.
It was as if the fog drank their youth from them.
There was a reason it was regarded as a cardinal forbidden zone.
It is said that the cultivator that wanted to ascend in this place but failed was one that cultivated an energy with a strong affinity for time and space.
Chiron turned to the troops, "if you want to get out of this alive, then follow me!"
There was no reason why the Fog of unbounded Demise was the safest place to go.
The only thing he had given them, was his orders.
There looked at one another. They had no choice.
This was war.
Then again, most were already prepared to die.
All they could do was just follow others.
Immediately, they followed after him.
Meanwhile, the Orc chief high on the power that had been granted to him enjoyed the chaos that he was causing.
Unknown to him, the runes on his body disappeared onew after the other.
On getting to the Fog, Chiron commanded the dragon to shoot out it's flames at the fog.
Dragons were beings of ancient runes. There were known as the children of earth itself.
Their power was foundational.
The fog seemed to path ways when the Dragon's flames reached it.
However, almost as soon as the fog parted ways, it recovered.
It was as if it was healing itself.
Chiron looked behind him. The power that the Orc chief produced was reducing.
And the army of the Chanland Kingdom was on their tail.
"Damn it. Just use your blood essence," he commanded the dragon.
