Chapter 144: Prelude to the melee, ambitious wolf orcs, a surprise

It’s been a long time.

The place where the Big Claw Priest and the Young Skaven Priest gathered had its own name, and it also attracted Skaven warriors to join.

Such places are called noisy ruins.

In the flow of time, some simple rules were laid down.

There must be no theft, robbery, or oppression among the noisy ruins.

Even though this rule is difficult to restrict.

In the noisy ruins, you can buy some food and items sold by the ratmen, some bugs, berries, or bright feathers, some hard scales, a piece of rusty metal, or some other odds and ends.

Use blood mushroom powder as currency.

The lowest quality light red blood mushrooms are dried and ground into powder, which can be better preserved and become a kind of currency among the low-level rat people.

At the same time, a wooden board will be placed in the center of the noisy ruins.

Imitate the actions of those great men who used stone tablets to inscribe their achievements.

Patterns carrying some simple stories will be painted on the wooden boards.

A wooden board bears the story of an entire noisy ruin.

Although the wooden board is not very strong, the stories recorded on it cannot be preserved as long as they are inscribed on the stone wall.

When there is a story to record, even the stingiest Great Claw priest is willing to spend a sum of blood mushroom powder to carve the story on the wooden board.

Yes, this is a paid program.

But the rat people gathered here enjoyed it endlessly.

………….

Rat Zhan found a suspicious direction.

The rat priests who headed in that direction were almost wiped out.

There should be what you are looking for in that direction.

A group of giant rat knights were sent out by Rat War.

If this team of giant rat knights comes back soon, the rat war will decide the follow-up based on the news.

But if this team of giant rat knights does not come back.

Then Rat War will mobilize troops to go directly to the battlefield.

On the grassland.

That area near the edge of the towering mountains.

A shallow river meanders through the grassland, nourishing large areas of fertile pasture.

The endless snow melting on the towering mountains turned into streams.

An evergreen four-season pasture has been created.

Cattle and sheep gather here.

The races that roamed the grasslands also settled here.

Although they didn't get along happily.

Competition, fighting, and fighting.

The most fertile pastures are naturally matched with the fiercest battles.

Until those shining tokens of the gods fell.

The two goatmen tribes in Four Seasons Ranch received the attention of the gods at the same time, and began their own rise.

In a very short period of time, the situation on this Four Seasons Pasture changed from a gathering of many small tribes fighting together to a tit-for-tat confrontation between two large tribes of goatmen.

Obviously, even if the two parties come from the same source, the gods standing above them obviously do not want the other party to stand in the same area with them.

The struggle begins again.

And gradually turned into a war.

The hatred became more and more simmering, and there was an undying hatred between the two tribes, which belonged to the same tribe of sheep orcs.

Attack without reservation.

In the war between these two goatmen tribes, the winner was about to be determined.

A mediocre, normal sheep orc.

One has large coiled horns, perhaps they can be called bighorn sheep.

But in fact, they call themselves the argali tribe.

Although they are a bit special, the coiled horns do not bring them any unique advantages.

They were beaten violently by the normal sheep orc tribe.

It even reached a point of imminent destruction, and then the god of the argali tribe decisively fell to his knees.

But he didn't kneel down to the opponent in front of him.

Instead, he knelt down towards the real overlord of this area of ​​the world, the wolf-orcs that roamed the grasslands.

Luring the wolf into the house?

The army of wolf orcs poured into this four-season pasture.

The two parties once united on this grassland to jointly resist the invasion of wolf orcs.

However, at this time, everything changed and the battle situation reversed.

The normal sheep-orcs were defeated and were beaten violently without any suspense.

Conquered by the wolf orcs, he was forcibly gathered and became a vassal of the Prairie Kingdom.

The statues of their gods were forcibly carried out of the temple by the wolf orcs and moved into the newly established Union Temple, where they were located closest to the gate.

Became the third-ranked existence in that pantheon.

It seems pretty good, but there are only three gods in this so-called Pantheon.

The wolf-orc demigod as the main god, the second-ranked argali god, and the third-ranked god of the sheep-orc people.

It sounds nice, ranking third, but being placed at the door means that he is a gatekeeper.

Because the resistance of the sheep orcs was extremely fierce at the beginning, it caused a lot of losses to the wolf orcs, and then their gods also received such treatment.

This naturally makes the sheep orcs quite angry, but given the huge gap in strength, they can only accept it.

And the most disgusting thing is!

Those despicable argali, those weak argali, these weaklings who were about to be destroyed by them, instead became a member of the grassland kingdom.

At the same time, the Four Seasons Ranch was also handed over to these argali sheep, and they became managers.

An extremely sharp contradiction arose.

In this four-season grassland, as the former quasi-king of this area, even if he is defeated, even if he becomes a vassal.

But after all, a lot of strength was preserved.

In other words, the wolf orcs were not completely exterminated, and most of the sheep orcs' power was deliberately retained.

Argali was promoted to the position of manager.

It seemed that the strategy of luring the wolf into the house was a great success. They suddenly turned around and even beat their old rivals into slaves.

Well, on this grassland they are said to be vassals, but in fact they are slaves.

The argali became de facto slave owners.

Just one problem arises, there is not a huge gap in strength between them and the slaves they manage.

Their position is not secure either.

All of a sudden, the wolf-orc army became the decisive force.

They must rely on the wolf orcs to gain a foothold in this four-season pasture.

For this reason, they spared no effort to hand over materials and provide manpower in exchange for the illusory closeness and help of the wolf beast people.

As time goes by, all the troops of the wolf orcs who stayed on this four-season pasture have left.

But the supplies that were constantly being supplied did not dare to stop at all.

At the same time, the contradiction between the argali and the orcs has become more and more acute.

It seems that the argali are slave owners.

But they seemed to have no whips at all.

I have to admit that this is an extremely clever method.

The wolf orcs only dispatched some troops and did not invest anything else. They just gained a loyal ally and a large amount of resources that could be stably supplied.

As for whether the conflict at Four Seasons Ranch is acute or not, what direction will the future between the two tribes take?

The orcs didn't care.

They don't even care who the leader of this area is.

It's nothing more than dispatching an army again to complete a suppression. The loser will be knocked down, but he will not be completely beaten to death.

In order to maintain their status, successful people can only act as they have in the past.

Continue this cycle.

As long as the wolf orcs are still far ahead militarily, there will be no major problems.

This is a very suitable method, even if there are many problems.

The expansion speed is extremely fast, but it is extremely unstable, and it lacks actual control over most places in its territory.

But the expansion is extremely fast, and there is no governance pressure. Everything can be piled up for the military. It only needs to advance violently to build a huge empire very quickly.

As long as there are no accidents, there is no doubt that after the wolf orcs swept across the vast grassland.

An extremely large and extremely elite army is about to take shape.

The cliff-like military gap will appear. At this time, Du Yuan and the half-elf kingdom entrenched in the edge corner will not be taken seriously by them.

The gods of the wolf-orcs have always set their sights on the center of this world.

Huge armies will pour into the mainland from the grasslands to compete for the true dominance of the world.

If no accident occurs.

But what the wolf orc god may not have thought of is that the nameless guy huddled in the corner, the guy who is unknown and has no sense of existence, has quietly ascended to the demigod.

He even divided his troops into two places and was extremely arrogant.

………….

Among the layers of hills.

The place where the half-elf kingdom is located.

A very closed area.

There are not many roads to stay on. It is uneven and strangely rugged, with low shrubs, sparse but continuous trees, climbing vines, hidden poisonous insects and snakes, and the beasts that occasionally show their traces in the mountain forest.

These entanglements make progress difficult.

But even so, at the first moment, there was a rat priest leading a team into this rugged mountain forest.

To find something.

The rat priests of Wasteland City have never given up exploring this layered hills.

Because of the same important thing.

For the sake of the black stone that can ignite the fire, compared to Rat War, who couldn't figure it out and completely gave up on the development of industry.

These rat priests have always been very enthusiastic about industry. Everything in the Wasteland City is ready. Even relying on the black stones found in the ruins, the Wasteland City has forged a batch of iron tools.

Of course I don't want to give up.

But the only black stone vein was taken over by white rats, so these rat priests set their sights on the area where the black stone vein appeared.

Yes, the quilboar's coal mine is located on the outskirts of those stacked hills.

A large number of rat priests were thrown over.

Waste City, where a large number of senior rat priests gather and jointly decide matters, cannot be as decisive as Crucible City.

With just one thought, he could march into the empty area with great force.

But at the same time, it also has an advantage, that is, when something is determined, the forces gathered in the bloated city can be mobilized together.

In the hills, the rat priests who were exploring the mineral veins collided with the half-elves who were exploring outside.

The weather has started to warm up recently, and when it gets a little warmer, I’ll be more relaxed! should!
