Chapter 3560
in order
...
This surge of will that swept through all the Parthians made them understand exactly what this special willpower was.
Even without any prior instruction or understanding, everyone became aware of the existence of this will after the dawn of its manifestation.
The Parthian imperial will, shattered by the Second Trajan's Legion, reappeared in the Parthian will at this moment.
"The imperial will only appear when it is reborn from the ashes and writes a glorious chapter. Even if it is shattered, it will still appear under the same circumstances..." Feeling the will appear in his mind, Vologis V recalled Sima Yi's words and instantly understood that his persistence was ultimately meaningful.
The will of an empire may indeed crumble, but it can also be reborn from the ashes, just as it is now with Parthia.
Realizing the rebirth of the imperial will, Vologis V immediately thought of another possibility.
Ignoring the approaching Roman army, Vologus V focused his attention on Atlatomé, the general who had demonstrated his strength and carried the hopes of the empire.
If the will of the empire can be reborn, then on this basis, the legion that can inherit and bear the will of the empire will naturally become the legion he longs for.
Just as Vologius V had imagined, Atalanta and his legions did indeed achieve a sublimation of willpower, making the entire legion a legion of military spirit.
However, the order of events differed from what Vologius V had envisioned.
Based on his existing knowledge, Vologus V believed that the imperial will came first, and then the military spirit legion emerged. In this respect, he was misled by Sima Yi's information.
However, this is unavoidable. Few people in the world know about the actual details of the Military Soul Legion. It is mainly concentrated in the Han Empire and the Roman Empire. Even the Parthian and Kushan Empires, which were also empires, had a great lack of information in this regard.
The main reason is that the two empires have only ever had one military spirit legion. Moreover, the Kushan Empire used a trick to promote its military spirit legion, while the Parthian military spirit legion was destroyed nearly a hundred years ago.
Based on his understanding of the empire's history over the past century, Vologis V almost universally accepted the theory that the existence of the military spirit legion was contingent upon the existence of the empire's will.
Therefore, the decision to wage this war, to ignite the fighting spirit and will of everyone, and to conduct this war that can be described as a high-stakes gamble, is in order to forge the corresponding military spirit legion.
In reality, Atlas Thomme and the soldiers under his command had undergone years of rigorous training and battlefield combat, possessing extremely strong basic qualities. They were united under the call and name of the great cause of Parthia, and devoted everything to the country and to Vologius V.
Without the will of the Empire, does the Military Soul Legion cease to exist?
the answer is negative.
The Military Soul Legion is a miracle in itself, so how could it possibly have so many shackles?
Without the help and support of the Imperial Will, the Military Soul Legion will simply find it more difficult to stand on its own and be passed down. To a large extent, it will disappear completely along with the disappearance of its creator.
The Atlas American Legion was promoted to the Military Soul Legion not because the Imperial Will appeared, but because it became the Military Soul Legion, the Imperial Will had a vessel.
The difference in their order determines the difference in their foundations.
If a legion becomes a Military Soul Legion only with the help of the Empire's will, then the promotion to Military Soul Legion will consume a significant amount of the Empire's will power, and may even result in the loss of Military Soul Power to activate the ultimate Military Soul skill. Conversely, becoming a Military Soul Legion solely through its own efforts without relying on the Empire's will means that its qualities and willpower must meet the corresponding conditions. In most cases, excellent qualities and willpower will directly feed back into the entire legion, thus generating a considerable amount of Military Soul Power.
It is precisely because they first became military spirits and then the carriers of the empire's will that Atalanta and his entire legion, after being promoted and acquiring all the basic attributes of military spirits, also possessed the power of military spirits that could unleash their ultimate skills.
It possesses the power of military spirit to unleash ultimate moves without consuming the power of the Empire's will.
The moment the Legion of Souls completed its promotion, Atalanta knew what the Legion's ultimate move was.
He had seen this ultimate move before; it had both similarities and differences.
Atlatomme had seen similar skills throughout the northern part of Parthia, though there were still a few differences.
The legion called Xian Deng used crossbows instead of bows and arrows. Although both could fire similar cloud arrows, they were quite different.
The Cloud Arrows that were launched first mainly relied on the essence of heaven and earth, and were used in extremely large numbers as a means of attack, but their power was relatively weak.
The Atlas Army's cloud arrows are completely different in this respect.
First of all, it is not a conventional means of combat. As an existence that requires the consumption of military spirit power, the Cloud Arrows of the Atlas American Legion, in addition to their large quantity, also have an extremely strong willpower strike effect.
If one's willpower is not strong enough, they can easily be severely injured in a short period of time when facing Atalanta's ultimate attack.
At least he had communicated and exchanged ideas with Ju Yi, and Atlatomé learned a lot of useful knowledge about certain military combat techniques.
Furthermore, they had communicated with deities and gained knowledge that they could not obtain before.
Based on this knowledge, Atlas was not surprised by the effect of his ultimate military spirit attack; on the contrary, he felt it was somewhat natural.
Having learned about this beforehand, when Atlas American Legion was promoted and sublimated, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately set his sights on the Second Auxiliary Legion and the Eighth Augustus.
This is the optimal solution for the current situation: eliminate the opponent in front of you, free yourself from the battlefield, and then go to rescue Vologus V.
Even if the other Parthian legions fighting the Romans managed to rescue them, it would be difficult for them to come to the aid of Vologus V in a short period of time.
Therefore, Atlas had no choice but to target the opponent at hand, which was the most efficient and optimal solution.
Drawing the bow and nocking the arrow, he poured his military spirit into it, locking onto the target in front of him.
A century later, the power of the Parthian military spirit is once again displayed in the world. (End of Chapter)
