LAZARUS REGULUS
Chaptre 154. Strongest Beast.
*The Soul of Lazarus.
Lazarus was leaning against a giant tree with heart-shaped leaves. Cesare had already taught Lazarus about all things about forging and training the body.
Four giant Beasts were closing in on Lazarus. A Nine Headed Golden Dragon, Nine Head Fire Phoenix, Black and Storm Qilin approached Lazarus.
"Lazarus, aren't you playing with us?" Beast Storm Qilin said as he glanced towards Orion and the other Lazarus-born who were playing Chess, Cards, Shogi, Othello, Go and cards.
"I was the one who taught you all about all those games. But you can become more skilled than me in a few months' time."
Jiang Yun was in the middle of all his other lives. He acts as a referee so that everyone does not cheat. "2 You cheated! You replace your 2 Heart/Heart card into a King Clover/Scub/Curl card"
"Sad." A black-haired Demon muttered.
Only a fool would play cards with Jiang Yun. Though blind he could see everything so all the reincarnations of Lazarus made him a referee.
"Lazarus, where did you get all these games?" Cesare asked.
"I got it while I was wandering."
"I've never seen this board game. Even since the first time. Is it called chess? Brain sharpening game based on war." A golden-haired High Elf said.
"4, Arthur and 1 cannot be defeated in this game. They always spent a long time thinking about their next move." 18 Cesare said.
"5 and 9 are also very good at chess." Jiang Yun said.
"Jiang Yun, they have 9 heads! However, they can't even defeat Arthur and 1." A white Lion Beastman said.
...***************...
A Beast with an eastern Liong/Dragon head with a horse body covered in purplish-black scales and a long tail lay beside Lazarus.
"Lazarus are you a Beast Master?"
"I am a Job Beast Master Rank S and can contract 36 Beasts. I've now contracted 21 Beasts." Lazarus answered.
"Orion, go and tell Lazarus about the types of Beasts. I feel like you're the only one who knows more about Beasts than any of us." A Demon race man with blond hair, horns and white bat wings said.
"Alright, I will tell all the strongest Beasts in the world to Lazarus." The 19th-born White King Orion got up and walked towards Lazarus.
Lazarus glanced towards Orion and the others. He knew the Divine Beast was the strongest Beast, but because of the myriad Beasts in each realm he did not know what Beasts were all that powerful. Definitely Storm Qilin, Nine Headed Golden Dragon, Nine Head Fire Phoenix, Black Liong and Storm Qilin were among the strongest Beasts.
"Lazarus, you must exclude the Divine Beast. There are so many powerful ancient Beasts out there. I've been researching Beasts for thousands of years and read many records about various kinds of Beasts."
"Orion, I'll listen to you!" Lazarus was interested in Orion's story. Ignis, Asterion, Golden Fang and the others were all powerful Beasts, but there were still countless Beasts out there that were stronger than them.
"Do you know the strongest Beast of the first order?" Orion asked.
"Haha. Me and the 3 Beasts that are here are indeed powerful Beasts, but we are not the strongest." 5 Nine Headed Golden Dragon laughed out loud.
"The strongest beast in the world is a Slime!"
Lazarus widened his eyes. "Slime?"
Orion and the 4 Beasts nodded their head acknowledging Slime was the strongest Beast in the world.
"Why did Slime become the strongest Beast? Aren't they the weakest Beasts and can be defeated by mortal humans?"
"The "normal slime can be defeated easily. But they can adapt anywhere. They can also evolve with why anything. A Slime can be found anywhere in the world. Slime that eats metal will evolve into Metal Slime. The slime that ate the magma and absorbed the flames would evolve into the Lava/Fire Slime. Slime that eats Herbs can evolve into Healing Slime and so on. Yet the Slime Realm Saint Beast was the strongest Slime! For example, Void Slime can eat a small planet like Antares! Even in the wild they were Beasts that had little balanced opponents." Orion says.
"Slime is also an invasive Beast they are very easy to breed. If there were no Slime as a natural decomposer and the Beast died in the wild it would have been the Beast's carcass that would have polluted the world." Nine Headed Fire Phoenix said.
Lazarus let out a deep sigh, he did not know a Slime was the strongest Beast in the world.
"The "strongest beast in the world second in order was the World Serpent. A Snake that is very large and can circle a Planet of medium size. Fortunately, they only numbered 3 in the entire world. They are called the sons of Jormungandr." Orion says.
"I agree with Orion in the past. I've met one of them. But they're not aggressive unless we attack first." Black Liong said.
"If we can defeat one of the World Serpents it will definitely become the second strongest Beast in the world. However, we will be hunted by all the snake-type Beasts around the world." Storm Qilin said.
"Beast third is Star Behemoth! They were the same size as the World Serpent. But they have different types of species. Unlike the World Serpents the known number of Star Behemoth was 21. Star Behemoth looked like an ordinary Behemoth Beast, but they were extremely large in size. Maybe in Antares there's no Behemoth Beast left." Orion says.
"A normal Behemoth is a very powerful beast! I once hunted a young Behemoth with my father." Nine Headed Golden Dragon said as he puffed his chest.
"Beast fourth order is Ancestral Dragon, Ancestral Bird and Ancestral Liong. The fifth reincarnation belongs to the type of Ancestral Dragon, the ninth Reincarnation belongs to the type of Ancestral Bird, the 11th Reincarnation belongs to the type of Ancestral Liong." Orion says.
"Lazarus, the Ancestral Beast is extremely powerful. I think only a few Beasts in the entire world can match us. Including Celestial Storm Qilin, Ancestral Titan, Ancestral Cat and Ancestral Snake." the 9th-born Nine Headed Fire Phoenix said
"I don't think the three of you are the strongest Beasts of your time. I know the size of a Beast doesn't really matter." Lazarus says.
"The fourth recruits are Ancestral Cat, Ancestral Titan, Ancestral Snake, Celestial Beast, and Ancestral Wolf/Dog. I couldn't figure out which one was stronger, so I put them in the same order." Orion says.
Lazarus and the 4 Beasts who were there nodded.
"Celestial Beast? One of my contracted Beasts is a Celestial Violet Mink, I named it Celestial!" Lazarus said, he did not know that Celes was one of the powerful Beasts.
"Haha. You're very lucky. I used to have a Celestial Nine Tailed Ice Fox and now in my other life have a Celestial Violet Mink. Although Celestial Violet Mink was very weak in battle, but when in the Supreme Beast realm she could go anywhere. Unknown to the eyes of the world. Even he could bring others to the upper and lower realms." Orion laughing.
"Are Celestial Beasts extremely rare?"
"Haha. You idiot! Same with the Ancestral Beast! Celestial Beasts were extremely rare as if searching for a needle in a haystack." Black Liong laughed.
"It's lucky you can contract a Celestial Beast space element attribute. But the weakness is that he depends a lot on where space." Storm Qilin replied.
