The First Magic World War-Chapter 275 - : 268, The Eight Beastman Blood Oaths

Chapter 275: 268, The Eight Beastman Blood Oaths

Charles asked with a belly full of doubts, “Then how do I infiltrate?”

Menilman said, “In a few days, a slave ship will enter Saint Michael Island! The ship is carrying Orc slaves.”

Charles asked, “And then?”

Menilman said, “Don’t you know the Beast God Shapeshifting Art?”

Charles was once again greatly shocked and retorted, “Senior sister, how do you know about this?”

Since Menilman knew that he could perform the Beastman Shapeshifting Art, Charles didn’t think it was necessary to hide it anymore!

But Charles was very curious, how did Menilman, so far out at sea, know he could perform the Beast God Shapeshifting Art?

Menilman smiled faintly and said, “Tumishen used to be under my command. Believing that the People of Byron were unreliable and having broken off with the other Beastman tribe leaders, he took some Orc Assassins and sought refuge with me at sea.”

“When the Orc Allied Army besieged Strasbourg, Tumishen was forced by the Orc Elder Council through a blood oath to return. After the great defeat, when he met you, he thought of having you disguise as an Orc slave to infiltrate Saint Michael. That’s why he taught you the Beast God Shapeshifting Art.”

Charles paused for a moment, then asked, “So…”

Menilman said, “He wasn’t there to assassinate you but to convey my greetings instead.”

Only then did Charles understand why the Old Leopard Man had mingled with the Orc Labyrinth Guards. Was it all for this purpose?

Menilman smiled and said, “Tumishen said you are very interesting and perfectly suited to infiltrate Saint Michael, so he just gave you a scare.”

Charles remembered the Old Leopard Man saying before he left, “You must diligently practice the Beast God Shapeshifting Art. The next time I return, if you have made progress, I will take you to do something big…”

So, this was the “something big” Tumishen was talking about.

He was somewhat resistant, knowing that being an inside agent never ended well. He said, “Senior sister, I’m rather timid and not good at disguising myself. I’m afraid I might ruin your grand plans.”

Menilman said, “Tumishen also told me: If you are willing to be an inside agent, he can resolve the crisis with Agmilas.”

This time, Charles was not surprised. After a moment of silence, he asked, “Does he know a lot about the Labyrinth Evil God?”

Menilman said, “Tumishen once went to the New Continent and even built a Labyrinth! He had the idea of building a passage between the two continents. If successful, it would have been very convenient, but he failed.”

Charles nodded and said, “I am willing to help senior sister take down Saint Michael Island.”

In a low voice, Menilman said, “Thank you!”

After a silence, the Empire’s First Rose said faintly, “There are very few people who can help me, and among those willing to help, you are the most special! Should I overcome this predicament, I will certainly not forget today, when a junior brother went out of his way for me.”

Charles, without any hesitation, accepted the invitation and said gravely, “Senior sister! I will also need a copy of the Bloodthirsty Fighting Spirit secret technique for Beastmen.”

Menilman flashed a brilliant smile and said, “I’ve already prepared it for you.”

The orc’s Bloodthirsty Fighting Spirit is said to be a Secret Technique taught to the orcs by the Eternal and Illusory Dragon, one of the Nine Great True Gods. It is suitable for orcs of every race, but the Bloodthirsty Fighting Spirit cultivated by different orc races is distinctly different.

The orc’s Fighting Spirit is similar to the path of Transcendent knights among humans, except that when Bloodthirsty Fighting Spirit surpasses the Tenth Grade, it does not condense the knight’s proof but instead binds the orc with eight great orc blood oaths: The legacy of blood must be passed on, never give up on companions, never break an alliance even in death, protect the faith till the dying breath, fearless self-sacrifice, no dread in certain-death battles, show mercy and love for life, and respect the cycle of nature!

Tumishen had to take part in the siege on Strasbourg precisely because of the blood oath, “never break an alliance even in death.”

The eight great orc blood oaths are the source of orc power; once violated, the blood oaths crumble, and their power would plummet, likely never to recover.

Charles had never considered cultivating the Bloodthirsty Fighting Spirit, and even though it was not a secret among the various orc races, he had never actually sought to take a look at it.

Menilman handed Charles a wax-sealed parchment scroll and said, “This is something Tumishen left for you, a record of the original Secret Technique when the Eternal and Illusory Dragon taught it. It is said that there’s a certain chance of confronting this True God directly and receiving divine favor.”

Charles was wary of anything that could summon a god, but thinking that a True God might be different from an Evil God, he still accepted the original Secret Technique scroll.

Now that he had accepted the mission, he felt calmer and asked, “Senior, once I infiltrate St. Michael Island, what exactly should I do?”

Menilman said, “You have three tasks: First, try to send out news as much as possible; we need to know the true situation on St. Michael Island. Second, assist any internal resistance forces in St. Michael; although we have no insiders there, they are not of one mind internally. It is said that there’s an organization called Golden Goat; try to make contact with them. Third, find a way to get into the prison on St. Michael Island. There are three Sacred Order individuals imprisoned there, and as long as you release them, St. Michael Island will inevitably fall into chaos.”

“Once St. Michael Island itself reveals any weaknesses, I will command the warships to assault with all their might.”

“The master of St. Michael Island once dueled with that person one-on-one, and the outcome was a draw. However, he was younger then, and his power… might not be stronger than mine is now. But just in case, I have prepared three Sacred Order individuals for the Golden Goat Fleet master. I trust that should be enough to ensure victory.”

Charles was quite surprised to hear about the three Sacred Order individuals. He had originally thought that Menilman’s situation wasn’t that great, but now it seemed he had underestimated The Empire’s First Rose.

In such a difficult situation, she was still able to recruit helpers of the Sacred Order.

Truly a formidable woman!

Menilman continued, “Their Magical Alchemy Warship comes from Fars. It originally belonged to Duchess Meisu and was the flagship of the Northern Fleet, but no one knows how it ended up on St. Michael Island.”

“However, the most formidable things on St. Michael Island are the Ancient Magic Warship and the island itself. Both originate from the ancient Kingdom of Saint Michael, and I am not quite clear on what secrets they hold.”

“If you can find out the secrets of the Ancient Magic Warship and St. Michael Island itself, it would also benefit our conquest of the island.”

Charles memorized all these matters one by one.

After talking with Menilman for several hours, he was arranged to stay at the City Lord’s Mansion, his original room having been taken by his senior. Fortunately, Charles didn’t really care about these things and he slept well even in a different room.

After resting for a day, Charles also needed to make some preparations for infiltrating St. Michael Island. As he was going to St. Michael Island, many weapons could no longer be carried with him, and he could only send Collapsing Mountain and the griffin back to Machu Picchu. He only kept a Silver Rhinoceros, a Red-Blue Rattlesnake, a Blood Rose, and a Withing Rose with him.

Ah, and the Blood Spirit Rhinoceros as well.
