Chapter 1117: Chapter 134 Brothers Are Like Clothes, Women Are Like Hands and Feet_2
Finally, Diarmuid arrived, killed Midak, cut off the heads of the three Kings, and spilled their blood on the ground to break the magic that trapped Finn and his group.
This battle established Diarmuid’s position as the chief warrior in the Fiona Battle Group.
Back then, at the Mountain Pear Tree Palace, Finn, Ao Xiang, Gao’er, and others owed Diarmuid their lives and kept this favor in their hearts.
Falling for beauty and neglecting the safety of one’s capable subordinates, father is indeed muddleheaded!
Ao Xiang secretly cursed in his heart, but at this time Finn had already walked away, and he could only request Cu Chulainn beside him to go together and help with the formation.
At night, the search party returned to the city empty-handed and, following the guards’ guidance, arrived at the Alster Royal Palace.
At this time, the hall was already full of Ireland’s Divine Blood Heroes.
Upon hearing Ao Xiang and Cu Chulainn’s report on the search results, the atmosphere inevitably turned heavier.
Not finding him meant that the chief warrior of the Fiona Battle Group was either captured or killed.
In any case, the outcome would not be good.
Hearing the bustle of discussions in the hall, Finn felt a headache coming; after a moment of silence, he took the initiative to say:
"I misjudged the situation in Alster, underestimated the enemy, and this is my responsibility. I am willing to resign as Great Commander and plead guilty to the gods."
"Winning and losing on the battlefield is commonplace. Before you came, we also lost. Should we all resign and plead guilty to the gods? Besides, we aren’t dead yet; if you really want to take responsibility, then the losses on the battlefield should be won back from the battlefield!"
Cu Chulainn immediately stood up to refute, and the other Divine Blood Heroes also spoke up to defend Finn.
Regarding the character and ability of this Great Commander, they were still convinced.
At the critical moment, if it weren’t for the decisive order issued by this Great Commander to retreat, taking personal responsibility for covering the rear, the losses for the Fiona Battle Group and the Red Branch Knights would have been much more severe; those present might not have been left with many.
"Alright, once the war ends, I will offer double condolences to the families of the fallen and personally visit them to apologize."
Finn nodded as he decided, then sat naturally back in his chair.
Seeing this, Ao Xiang’s eyebrows subconsciously furrowed deeper.
A father knows his son well, and a son knows his father even better.
As one of the few wise men in the Fiona Battle Group, others might not see it, but he understood that his father Finn did not truly intend to resign; it was merely a tactic to advance by retreating.
For some reason, as he aged, this father increasingly enjoyed using schemes and indulging in power tactics, gradually losing the boldness and vigor of his youth.
Yet, even so, Ao Xiang was not in a position to reprimand his father as a son; he could only follow the topic, pondering:
"Well then, everyone, let’s discuss how to defeat these enemies next."
Upon hearing the inquiry, the Divine Blood Heroes immediately fell silent, and the previously slightly relaxed atmosphere returned to somberness.
This group of outsiders seemed absurdly strong, able to steadily suppress a joint force of Ireland’s two great battalions, forcing them to retreat and defend Alster Royal City, becoming trapped beasts in a cage.
Faced with such an unfavorable situation, these Divine Blood Heroes, who were more skilled at fighting than strategizing, naturally became perplexed.
However, this was precisely Ao Xiang’s intention.
Because at this moment, it’s time for the wise king to emerge and oversee the situation.
Ao Xiang discreetly looked at his father seated in the main seat, his gaze subtly flickering.
Meanwhile, Finn habitually placed his thumb in his mouth, lightly chewing, as the fragrance of salmon oil spread in his mouth, his thoughts became clear, and his mind more active:
"We must find a way to dispel the mist outside. This thing seems to not only interfere with our perception and vision but also cut off the connection between the Mortal World and Sky Island! Once we clear this barrier, we can gain aid from the gods and regain the initiative."
Looking at his father biting his thumb and providing a solution, Ao Xiang quietly nodded.
It is said that there is a Wisdom Salmon named Feitan in the Holy Well of Incaitan, and by eating the Holy Fruit in the well, it gained extraordinary wisdom. It’s said that whoever eats the meat of this salmon will gain all the world’s knowledge, superhuman wisdom, and foresight.
And Father Finn, while cooking this salmon for Great Druid Fangus, accidentally burned his hand and instinctively sucked his finger, thus obtaining the essence of the Wisdom Salmon, granting him superhuman wisdom and vision.
A question raised by himself, answered by his father, executed by the Fiona Battle Group.
After succeeding, the prestige and honor belong to the far-sighted Great Commander Finn; this is their father-son cooperative ruler mode.
Now, having just experienced a major defeat, Great Commander Finn needed a highlight moment to restore his image.
Upon hearing Finn’s proposal, Maeve sneered nearby:
"Easier said than done, do you think the mist outside is that easy to break? If there were a way, would we still be trapped in the Royal City?"
"Since it’s something man-made, there should be a way to restrain it. I recall there are races among the elves very skilled at manipulating weather phenomena. As the former Fairy Queen of Ireland, can you call upon a group to solve our current predicament?"
