Chapter 185: The ritual of seducing monsters
There are many orcs who came to help the battle, not only the Gaoshu tribe.
Although the orcs look somewhat similar to the beasts, the beasts will not show mercy to them for this reason. For those magical beasts formed by absorbing a lot of chaotic magic, not to mention orcs, even if they are of the same race, they can also be used as food when necessary.
For them, orcs are not only not objects worthy of attention and protection, but on the contrary, they are the closest and easiest food to hunt.
Before the completion of Mulandana and the establishment of the crusade army system, the beast tide was the most feared thing for the orc tribe in the hundreds or even thousands of miles around the Wolf's Nest Lake. It has no fixed rules, and every time it strikes, it is overwhelming, and manpower is not worth mentioning in front of it. Whether it is a brave warrior or a wise shaman, it is useless in the face of countless beasts, and can only be as dusty as dust, as ash as mustard, ushering in death and destruction.
At that time, when the orcs swore, the most savage oath was "if I break my oath, the beast tide will swallow my tribe".
Time flies, under the perseverance of Mulandana's crusade for more than 100 years, the beast tide in Wolf's Nest Lake has never happened again, but the orc tribe still sings epics, chewing on the ancestors passed down from generation to generation, infiltrating deep into the bone marrow. Fear and hatred for the beast tide.
Therefore, whenever the crusade came to Wolf's Nest Lake, warriors and shamans from various orc tribes would come one after another, trying their best to help the crusade. For them, this is not for any covenant, but to protect their own people.
Every time a demon beast is killed here, their clansmen are a little safer.
This was true of the Tall Tree tribe, and so were the other tribes.
In the next few days, Panda saw reinforcements from dozens of large and small tribes. They ranged from three to five to dozens of people. There were almost five hundred people in total, and none of them were strong and sturdy. A warrior is a shaman with a unique skill, and there is not even a single non-combatant.
In contrast, although the Mulandana Crusade Army was well-organized and well-equipped, at least in terms of numbers, it fell behind.
Of course, this advantage and disadvantage is actually meaningless. After all, everyone is trying to exterminate monsters and avoid the occurrence of beast tides. It is really redundant to fight for the upper hand.
These orc reinforcements from all directions are obviously experienced, and they have placed their tents in the camps established by the crusade, so as to be protected by the camps.
And these days, the crusade is of course not idle. They were skilled in reinforcing the camp, erecting high and thick fences, digging deep trenches in front of the fences, and making barbs out of cut wood at the bottom of the trenches. From a distance, the fence is as high as a wall, and in the trench below, the sharp barbs are like spears pointing to the sky. Just a glance at it makes people feel mad and shudder.
On the inside of the fence, is a **** built with mud. Crusaders can easily walk up the slope, use the top fence as a shield, and stab the spear through the hole, or climb to the arrow tower behind the fence, commanding the deadly arrow. Arrow shoots the beasts that have been attacking.
It can be seen that the entire camp is built on the premise that "Warcraft will make every effort to take the initiative to attack". It's just that the pandas don't understand, what are they going to do to make Warcraft go all out to attack frontally?
This question was answered on the night of the full moon.
That full moon night, the weather was not good and gloomy. However, the Governor asked the magicians who accompanied the army to join forces and cast an extremely huge spell to disperse all the clouds in the sky, revealing the clear sky and bright moon and stars.
Under the bright moon that looked like a silver plate, several shamans lit a fire and threw bags of strange-smelling things into it, singing songs that no one could understand while throwing them.
Along with their ritual, Panda clearly felt that the originally chaotic magic power in the vicinity had gradually returned to order, revealing a strange clear feeling.
It is said that the clear magic power should make people feel comfortable, but this kind of clearness is extremely dazzling and extremely hateful to those demon beasts who are used to the chaotic magic power. At least the panda has vaguely heard that there is a roar from the beast, which is rapidly approaching.
The shamans looked at each other and nodded. Several warriors moved to a cage, and inside the cage was a young Warcraft.
This monster is a wolf, looks small and cute. Panda feels that if it is dressed up, it may be sold in the pet market of the earth, and the price is probably not low.
But the orcs would not have the slightest love or pity for this guy. For them, the beasts, especially the demon wolves, were the most hated enemies. If it hadn't come in handy in today's ceremony, this little monster would have been cut into pieces by them long ago!
A warrior took the little devil wolf, which was tied like a zongzi, out of the cage, put it on the fire on a shelf, and roasted it alive.
The young devil wolf let out a miserable cry, which made the panda frown secretly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
James noticed his expression and whispered, "There's nothing to sympathize with, they're all man-eating beasts."
"I know, it's just... this kind of killing method is really a bit..."
"This is also part of the ritual." James, who had done a lot of homework, naturally knew what was going on, and explained, "Hearing the scream of this little thing, those beasts will think it is in danger and rush over— -But they didn't come to rescue it, but they wanted to fall into the trap and take the opportunity to eat it."
"This is the magical beast spawned by chaotic magic. It's cruel and cold, without the slightest trace of humanity." James sighed and said, "If it wasn't for the blood of the previous generations to prove this, I can't believe it. Such creatures exist!"
Panda also frowned secretly when he heard it, and he really didn't believe it.
It is the nature of all animals to take care of their cubs. Especially those animals with higher intelligence, it is more common to do so. Knowing that the cub was in danger, instead of trying to rescue it, he wanted to take the opportunity to eat it... This is really, a bit beyond imagination.
But soon, he knew that he was really wrong.
When he saw the first group of demon wolves roaring and arrived, from the eyes of these beasts, he only saw endless greed and desire, without the slightest anger or impatience.
As James said, these guys didn't even think about rescuing the cubs, on the contrary, they came to eat the weak wolves.
At the moment of seeing their eyes, the panda deeply realized that these beasts and intelligent creatures like themselves are natural mortal enemies.
Water and fire are incompatible!
