Lord Chronicle

Chapter 48 The Fourth "Plague God" Appears

The next day, the mission team was finally ready.This mission consisted of 120 soldiers, 30 of whom were knights of the kingdom's elite knights, led by a small captain of the knights.In addition to Sol, the special envoy also had two deputy envoys appointed by the king. Jessica Chip and Kress walked as Sol's entourage.

The orcs also set off together, but because they hated Karig's death, they avoided the sidelines, and they were clearly separated from the human team, and they glanced hostilely from time to time.

When Sol arrived, the team had been organized by the knight captain named Nick. The soldiers escorted this time were all the elites of Dinar's army. They were all full of energy and brightly armored, waiting for the king's inspection.

The two deputy envoys looked lifeless, obviously believing that this was a trip to "send death".One of them is called Jayers and the other is called Rondo, both of whom are nobles.I don't know how these two unlucky guys offended the king and were stuffed into the mission.

"Master Saul, the team has assembled and is ready to go at any time." Nick saw Sol, and immediately strode up to him and gave him a military salute.

This is a typical soldier, about 30 years old, tall and meticulous, with a bushy beard that makes him very masculine, and he looks like a trustworthy person.

Seeing that such a person led the team, Saul was more relieved, and he nodded to show that he knew.Just as he was about to speak, he heard a voice behind him: "Sol, it's really you, I'm so happy."

Thor showed a helpless wry smile on his face, turned around, and it was indeed the orc princess Amada.She came over under the guard of two werewolf soldiers. Compared to her joy, the two werewolves were more hostile.

Before Saul could speak, Amada jumped up and took his hand: "Karrig is dead, I'm so scared, and you didn't come to comfort him for a few days. When I first heard that you were going to use the I still can’t believe it when I’m sent back to China on Christmas Eve. Great, with you here, I’m not afraid of anything.” As he spoke, he raised his foot and kissed him on the face without any scruples.

Sol was like a log, allowing Amada to do what he did, and he really didn't know how to react at this time.

"Princess, please don't approach these despicable humans. Let's go back." A werewolf said in a deep voice.

His words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the surrounding human soldiers, and everyone's faces showed anger.The two werewolf soldiers stared back murderously, the surroundings were filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

Amada didn't seem to see it, but shook Sol's hand reluctantly: "I'm leaving, anyway, there is still a lot of time on the way, come and see me more."

Sol couldn't laugh or cry, how dare I, big sister, your subordinates haven't torn me up yet.

After Amada left, Sol smiled awkwardly at Nick: "Ahaha, the little girl is so naive..."

Nick ignored him, saluted calmly, and walked away.

"Look at what you've done." Jessica was furious.

Sol said weakly: "I'm wronged, in fact, I really have nothing to do with her."

"Shut up! If it weren't for the inexplicable relationship between the two of you, how could we go to the Beastman Empire!" Jessica cursed bitterly.

Thor was stunned and speechless.Looking at the disdainful eyes of the soldiers around him, he couldn't help but sighed: God, what evil did I do...

***************************************************************************
Before the envoys set off, the king and his officials came to see them off.According to the etiquette, Sol led the crowd to kneel down and accept the king's blessing.

"Your Majesty and others have a heavy responsibility, and I hope to do my best not to damage the dignity of my Dinar." After the priest assisted in praying, Robert said solemnly.

Although he has scolded his ancestors for eight generations in his heart, Sol still only pretends to be moved to thank him.The officials and nobles who came with them stepped forward to see off one after another, and the scene was touching.

Sol was perfunctory, and after sending off a group of nobles, Cliff came over with Ferino.

"It's really enviable for Master Saul to take on such a great job at such a young age." Cliff said with a smile.

"Since you're so envious, you can do it for me." Sol hated him for being so obedient when he came up with a bad idea, and he didn't even feel like perfunctory.

Unexpectedly, he was so rude, Cliff's face sank a little, and then he returned to normal: "Hahaha, Sir Saul is really humorous. Then, I wish you the best of luck."

Felino said affectionately to Jessica: "Miss Jessica, I have been in the capital for seven days, but I have not had the opportunity to talk with you again. It is really regrettable. After returning from the Beastman Empire, please accept my invitation." .”

Ever since she learned of Cliff's conspiracy, Jessica became much colder towards Felino.She heard the words and nodded lightly: "I am also looking forward to seeing you again."

Jessica's indifference surprised Felino. He took a deep look at her and smiled slightly: "Then I wish you a safe journey and come back as soon as possible."

As soon as the two were sent away, a sweet voice came to Sol's ear again: "Master Sol, why did you hide from others that night in the palace? I don't know how much I miss you these days, but you are leaving again .Couldn't even Florette's providence help us spend the night together?"

Sol felt numb all over when he heard this voice, he turned his head bravely, and saw the extremely enchanting Melis looking at him with resentment.

"Ah...haha, you are so polite." Sol spoke to him in a hurry.

"Be sure to come back safely, my room is always open for you." Melis pressed close to Sol's face and blew into his ear hole.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Sol was extremely embarrassed, so he had no choice but to look at his nose and his heart, pretending to be a piece of wood.Jessica gave him a sullen look, as if blaming him for his lack of morals.

Finally, after going through all the cutscenes, Sol gave an order, the knights got on their horses, and the accompanying soldiers lined up neatly, escorting the envoy's convoy to officially set off.

*******************************************************************************
The team left the capital and then headed north. Along the way, the orcs just followed the team at a leisurely pace, without any intention of being gregarious at all.Occasionally, a few werewolves left the team, riding mutant giant wolves sprinting back and forth around the convoy, brandishing their weapons and howling loudly for fun.

The werewolf's mount is a mutant giant wolf specially bred by the werewolf clan. Most of them are gray or black, and they are huge, like a calf.They only obey the orders of their close relatives, the werewolves, so although there are Beamon war beasts in the orc empire, the wolf cavalry is the most famous knight.

Due to their body structure, these war wolves bumped so badly when they ran that ordinary people couldn't bear it at all.They are ferocious, and even if the knights on their backs are killed on the battlefield, the surviving war wolves are still very terrible killers.Moreover, when ordinary horses encounter these war wolves, their legs will immediately become weak, and they are the nemesis of human cavalry.

Fortunately, the war wolf is a special unit of the werewolf clan, and there are not too many of them.Whenever these wolf cavalry rushed to the front of the team, the horses pulling the cart would neigh in horror. The horses of the elite knights had undergone strict training and did not react much.Only the winged horse under Sol's crotch is the most composed, as if turning a blind eye.

All the human soldiers were annoyed by the werewolf's arrogance. Fortunately, Nick was a steady man and strictly restrained them from acting rashly, so there was no accident along the way.

Sol, the special envoy, has nothing to do about it. It is simply a fantasy for humans and orcs to get along well.Fortunately, those werewolves were only demonstrating and did not go any further.

"It's so arrogant, my lord, let me teach them a lesson." Kress asked angrily.

At this time, several werewolves were driving the war wolf, and when they were about to rush to the edge of the team, they turned around screaming, causing a commotion.

Since getting the "iron mound" and receiving Avarez's guidance, Kress has been full of confidence recently, eager to find an opportunity to try his own swordsmanship progress.

Of course Sol would not do such a stupid thing, he waved his hand: "How many times have I said, we must unite. Those werewolves just have a little excess energy, so let them make trouble."

"Hmph!" Kress sent back the unsheathed sword, his face full of unwillingness.

In this disturbing atmosphere, the team moved forward slowly, and finally arrived at Kaviland, which borders the border of the Orc Empire, after six days.

Strictly speaking, Kawi is not a pure territory.It is led by soldiers and is directly responsible to the king. It is the front line of Dinar's defense against the orc invasion. The entire territory is like a large military group.

The two most frequent wars in Dinar are the Sidvila military fortress on the border between the Bahrain Territory and the border of the Lulin Empire, and the second is the Kavi Territory.Since the Kawei collar is full of mines, his military industry is also quite developed. The standard equipment produced by the military collar Kawei has always been the top grade in weaponry stores.

General Pintat, the head of the Kingdom's Northern Army who stayed behind in Kawi, had already received an order from the capital and sent a squadron of cavalry to meet him.These knights are all battle-tested veterans, their military appearances are neat, and they are like a wall lined up on the road from a distance, and they can feel a murderous aura from a long distance.

The soldiers of Dinar's Northern Legion had been fighting the orcs for a long time and had a great reputation. At this time, those werewolves also calmed down, and the shrinking team followed Sol's convoy vigilantly.

A knight far away came out first and came to the front of Sol's team.Raising his fist and slapping the breastplate, he said loudly, "Squadron Leader Gein, Fifth Cavalry Regiment under the Northern Legion, welcome Your Excellency the Earl!"

He is Gein?Sol was slightly startled, and took the opportunity to look at the other party.Gein is tall, with a thick back and a heavy waist, wearing heavy knight armor all over his body, standing on a horse, majestic and majestic.

He didn't wear a helmet, showing a vigorous face, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a blue beard that was not completely shaved on his chin and cheeks.He was about the same age as Sol, perhaps because he was a soldier, he looked much more mature than his actual age.

Among Almuk's four "Gods of Plague", in terms of appearance, Darth's handsomeness, Walsa's innocence, Sol's inconspicuousness, and Gein's heroism, each has its own characteristics.

He was looking at Gein, and Gein was also looking at him, and suddenly he narrowed his eyes at Sol.Sol was relieved, it seemed that this guy was indeed related to him.

After stylized verification of their identities, the team, escorted by Kawei knights, headed for the fortress of "Broken Sword Gorge", the main city of Kawei collar.

Taking a break, Gein rode to Sol's side.He looked enviously at Sol's winged horse: "This is an elf's winged horse, where did you get it?" His horse also leaned over to sniff the winged horse's neck.

Although it was only the first meeting, with the experience of Darth and Volsa, Saul quickly regarded him as a mature person.He said proudly, "It was given by the elf singer."

"Wow! That boy Walsa's letter really isn't nonsense." Gein punched him on the chest: "You really met that elf, hey, I heard that elves are very...hehehe, is it true? ?”

How can Gein still have the tough and capable military style just now?Winking full of satyr appearance.Fortunately, Saul knew that he was one of the "four cheap", so he was not surprised by this change. Instead, he felt a kind of relief that "you finally showed your true colors, kid".

Gein was wearing full-body armor, and even his fists were covered with iron sheets, and he almost knocked Thor off his horse with one punch.He rubbed his chest and grinned, "How is it possible, don't listen to that kid's nonsense."

Gein sighed and said, "How are you guys, spending time and drinking in the royal capital. I was captured here by my father and exiled into the army. It's been almost half a year since I even touched a woman's hair. Brother, I'm miserable."

As he said that, he suddenly became excited again: "I heard that you were selected for this unlucky job because you hooked up with the orc princess. I haven't seen you for half a year. The more you mess around, the better you are. Now you are an earl."

Sol couldn't laugh or cry, where did this come from, who knows how miserable I am...

Speaking of Amada, the two involuntarily looked back, and it happened that Amada was also looking this way, meeting Sol's gaze, and she immediately waved happily.

Seeing this, Gein believed his guess even more, so he poked Sol: "Princess, I won't argue with you. The girl next to you is nice, how about it, how about helping my brother tonight?"

Seeing Gein pointing at herself, although she couldn't hear what the two of them were saying, Jessica knew that there must be nothing good, so she twitched her eyebrows and stared back.

"Hey, it's delicious." Gein rubbed his chin with interest.

Sol was taken aback, and secretly thought that you are not easy to provoke, but he chose to provoke Jessica, because he was afraid that he would not know how to die then.He quickly pulled Gein and said in a low voice: "Don't mess with it, you should give up this idea."

Gein was very dissatisfied: "I think back in Almuk, you relied on your head for ideas, Walsa's magic for doing things, Darth's face for picking up girls, and Lao Tzu's fist for fighting. When did we ever fear who would come?" ?”

Thinking back to how Darth and Walsa saw Jessica just a few days ago, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. Sol could only say that it was because you hadn’t seen her before.

Sol was about to say more when Gein suddenly pulled him forward and pointed: "Here we are!"

************************************************** *******************************
Broken Sword Gorge is located in the east of the Geting Mountains across the entire Kaweiling, and it is the only way to enter and exit the mountains.The entire canyon is winding and narrow, and the Götting Mountains, which are shaped like long swords, are cut off by it, hence the name.The Broken Sword Gorge Fortress was built hundreds of years ago. After successive generations of repairs, it has become the largest fortress in the north of Dinar.

It firmly guards the passage of the Broken Sword Gorge, leaving only a section of canyon passage outside the city towards the northern wilderness.Anyone who wants to attack it can only sigh in front of the high wall of the fortress in the narrow canyon. Because of its existence, the orcs have never invaded the hinterland of Dinar.

When a tall and majestic stone city built against the mountain appeared in Sol's vision, he couldn't help but be amazed.Although not as grand and grand as the royal city of Dusk, this fortified city built purely for military purposes has a stronger impact on people. It has the aura only after countless blood and fire baptisms.

Seeing the fortress, the werewolf's eyes started to bloodshot.It was in front of this fortress that the blood of countless orc soldiers was shed. Their feelings towards this city were really indescribably complicated.

After entering the city, the soldiers are the most seen. Whether they are standing guard with guns on the city walls, or patrols on the streets, and even many people in civilian clothes, their identities can be seen at a glance from their behavior.

General Pintat of the Army of the North is 63 years old, but he still has a strong body. His shaved bald head is in stark contrast to his full beard, and his heavy armor seems to be nothing.

He personally greeted him from the city lord's mansion, and when he saw Sol, he laughed boldly: "Your Excellency Earl Sol is not afraid of hardships and dangers, and resolutely went to the Orc Empire. I really admire this bravery."

What else could Saul say?I had no choice but to accept it happily, swallowing back the bitterness that had arisen from Pintat's compliment.On the contrary, his indifference made Pintat secretly surprised. He deserves to be an earl in his early 20s, and he really has an extraordinary demeanor.

Seeing Pintat, the captain of the guard, Nick, bowed respectfully: "Nick Barry, the captain of the Kingdom's Elite Knights, pays his respects to Your Excellency the General."

Pintat helped him up with a smile: "You are Nick from Barry's family. You have grown up so much in a blink of an eye. I think your father was still my subordinate back then. Is he doing well in the capital?"

Nick nodded: "Father also often talks about your heroic demeanor on the battlefield, and asked me to show his respect when I see you."

Pintat was overjoyed and slapped Nick's armor like a typical military tough guy.Following his acquaintance and greeting the accompanying soldiers, to Sol's surprise, most of them had parents or relatives who "had an affair" with the old man, which showed his extensive connections in the army.

However, this made the atmosphere very lively. After some quarreling, Pintat finally said: "Let's go, I will welcome the Earl tonight!"

*************************************************************************************
when!Amid the crisp impact, Kress and Gein each took a step back.

The banquet that night was full of military style, without the extravagance and luxury of the nobles, some just went straight, with a lot of wine and meat, allowing Sol to see the bold side of these soldiers.

The orcs refused to attend. It is said that Amada wanted to come to Sol, but was stopped by those werewolves.Chip also stayed in the camp. Although he was loyal to Sol, he didn't want to deal with Dinard's soldiers.

During the banquet, who suggested it, Gein and Kress competed in martial arts.Both of them were young and energetic, neither of them would obey the other, and they each used their full strength when they started fighting.

Gein is also a powerful fighter. His swordsmanship focuses on the way of actual combat in the army, which is direct and effective. It is more about overwhelming opponents with strength and momentum rather than skills.

This is exactly what Kress wants.The two young men roared angrily, and the heavy swords in their hands intersected in a straight line. The violent metal impact almost deafened Sol's ears.Pintat and his officers didn't notice it, and watched the fight carefully with a smile.

At this time, Gein stabilized his body, with the epee in his hand hanging by his side, and twisted his waist severely with the help of his body swaying.Following his twist, the tip of the sword dragged an arc-shaped spark on the ground, following the blade into the air, and slashed towards Kress obliquely with a thunderous force.

With Gein's sword, the strength of the ankle, waist and wrist were perfectly gathered into one bundle, plus the weight of the epee itself, its strength was astonishingly great, and the blade actually whistled in the air.He has won the characteristics of using all his strength and killing with one blow in the army's combat skills.

Even Kress's strange power would definitely not be able to withstand this thunderous blow.Pintat and the others who watched the battle showed approval in their eyes, secretly applauding Gein's sword.

In the past, Kress really couldn't take this sword.But after Avarez's call, he is no longer what he used to be.Seeing him open his eyes, he took a sharp step forward.

when!With a deafening bang, Kress came first, taking advantage of Gein's flaw in the angle of the sword, and slammed the iron mound of the black sword hard on the second half of his epee near the tsuba.

Hitting the enemy with the most powerful blow to the weakest, Kress's sword already has the meaning of returning to the basics of a master swordsman.When the sword is drawn, the closer the sword body is to the hands, the weaker the power is, and of course the harder it is to injure people.The closer the front half of the sword is, the greater the accumulated power will be. In a weapon that focuses on strength like the epee, the difference is even more incalculable.

Gein never imagined that Kress could catch the only flaw in his sword in an instant. Feeling the huge shock transmitted to his hands, his giant sword was violently swung to one side, and the empty door on his chest was wide open. .

"Oh..." Kress' excellent performance made Pintat sigh.

In combat, such a flaw is almost fatal.But Gein was wearing thick armor, and Kress couldn't continue to move for a while because of the shock of the sword just now. He didn't have a short sword or other off-hand weapon, so he couldn't hurt Gein either.

Usually in such a situation, the dominant side will use the shoulder to hit the enemy hard, push the opponent away, and then finish him with the next sword.Gein was also prepared to bear Kress's shoulder bump. The army's fighting skills included special training for this move. As long as Gein took this blow, he would be able to regain his strength and regain the disadvantage.

It's a pity that he made a completely wrong calculation. Although he accepted Avarez's system guidance, what Kress learned was how to preserve his strength in fierce battles, the basic skills of using a sword, and observing the enemy's weaknesses. A weak foundation of practical skills.

In essence, Avarez deliberately preserved Kress's free and practical, eclectic and genius swordsmanship formed in the long-term battle with Warcraft.

So when Gein took a step back and was ready to accept Kress' shoulder bump, he suddenly felt a huge shock from between his legs, and his whole body was pushed up abruptly by an upward force.

"What's going on..." Gein just had this thought, and received another heavy blow on his chest, and the whole person flew out inexplicably.When he came back to his senses, his neck was held by a sword.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was just that Kress kicked Gein in the crotch, kicking him into the air, and at the same time, raised his fist with his left hand and slammed Gein in the chest, directly knocking Gein into the air, and he took it neatly. won.

For a moment, the audience was stunned and speechless, including Pintat, veterans who had been through the battlefield, were stunned by Kress's two hands just now.Nick, who was watching the battle, was also very surprised. He didn't think much of Sol at first, thinking that he was just the second generation ancestor who inherited his father's title, but Kress' outstanding performance made him re-examine this idea. It's not easy either.

The army's swordsmanship lays more emphasis on actual combat, and it pays attention to how to use it practically, but after all, there are still certain rules.Kress, on the other hand, has completely brought "pragmatism" to the extreme. With only his own training and Avarez's guidance for a few days, his swordsmanship can reach this level. Kress is indeed a super swordsman. genius.

The scene just now left a deep impression on Pintat and the others, and at the same time Kress taught them a good lesson.In the eyes of regular swordsmen, Kress' behavior just now was very shameless, but to these soldiers, of course, it was nothing more than normal.

Gain was pulled up, and everyone saw at this moment that the crotch guard of his armor was almost completely deformed, and a piece of the armor on his chest was also dented, which showed how terrifying Kress's strange power was.

If it weren't for the piece of iron protecting the crotch, Gein's "brother" would probably have changed beyond recognition.Thinking of this, his face turned blue in an instant even though his neck was strangled by the sword.

"My god, your subordinates are too ruthless, I'm almost dead." Gein complained to Saul with lingering fear.

Sol was also a little embarrassed, and shouted with a straight face: "Kress, how could you do this, ah?"

Kress scratched his head in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, my lord, I just slipped in for a while... Anyway, his armor has a guard, so it won't break it."

"You..." Saul was at a loss for words, my subordinates are really lawless guys.

Jessica was very dissatisfied with his attitude, and secretly tugged Sol's sleeve, as if blaming him for scolding Kress.

At this time, Pintat and several generals came over: "Avarez's letter is indeed correct. How about it, young man, are you interested in joining our army?"

To be personally invited by the majestic head of the Northern Army who controls nearly one-sixth of Dinard's army, this face is really too great.If Kress agrees to this, he will definitely make great progress in the army in the future, with a bright future.

It's a pity that the Dinar people are all guys who have no ambitions and don't take hard things.Kress shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, but it's better for me to stay in Lovell."

Pintat could not hide his disappointment: "That's a pity. If you change your mind in the future, my troops welcome you at any time."

Then he turned to Gein and stared at him: "I don't usually practice well, and I am arrogant, so I am ashamed now?"

Facing the scolding from the head of the legion, Gein pushed back unceremoniously: "Damn old man, your son almost died just now, is this the attitude a father should have?"

Gein turned out to be Pintat's son, Jessica's eyes widened in surprise.Sol was not that surprised. Ever since he knew that Darth's father was the king, and Walsa's father was Albert, the kingdom's number one magician, then Gein's father was the commander of the Northern Legion, so what's so strange about it? ?
It's just that my three brothers are too big, and they are all sluts. Why is it that only Lao Tzu's father is an inconspicuous lord?

Pintat was trembling with anger from Gein, he gasped for a long time, and said angrily: "How dare you talk back? I am now ordering as the commander of the legion, immediately fully armed, run ten laps around the fort for me, go! "

"That's why I hate being a soldier. Dad can abuse his son casually. What's wrong with the world..." Gein muttered softly.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing. Yes, Lord Legion!" Gein gave a standard military salute.

Turning around and taking two steps, Gein turned back to Kress and said, "But your swordsmanship is really good, let's compete again when we have a chance."

Kress didn't have the slightest fear because of Gein's prominent family background, he slapped the scabbard: "Waiting for you anytime!"

"Ah, the moonlight is bright, I can't find a woman, it's not bad to run around the city." From far away, Gain complained optimistically.

"This kid..." Pintat snorted, but it could be seen that he actually liked Gein very much.

"By the way, Your Excellency the Earl, what are your plans for this trip to the Orc Empire?" Pintat asked suddenly.

Sol hurriedly said: "You are too polite, Gein and I are good friends, you can call me Sol."

As for plans, what plans can Sol have?Under the instigation of Cliff, the king made such an impossible task, and he was thankful that he could go back alive.

Suddenly, his heart moved, and he said sincerely to Pintat: "I don't know anything about the Orc Empire. If you don't dislike it, please give me your advice."

Pintat laughed loudly: "I don't dare to give advice, but I have been stationed at the border for a long time, so I still know some things. If you don't think my old man is wordy, please come with me."

************************************************** ***********************************
Looking at Jessica in surprise, Sol immediately nodded in agreement.Several people followed Pintat to a room, where a huge map was hung on the wall opposite the door, surrounded by weapons such as swords and armor, and a large wooden table that almost occupied the center of the room was full of messy scrolls and other things.

"Hehe, this is the old man's private study, but it seems that there are not many books. Please don't be offended, Your Excellency." Pintat laughed at himself.

Secret Road is worthy of being a professional soldier, this study is indeed more like a weapon arsenal.Saul also understood that Pintat was doing his best to help himself for Gein's sake.

"This time, His Majesty the King asked me to go to the Orc Empire. One is to appease their anger brought about by Karig's death, and the other is to sign a peace agreement between the two countries. Do you think I can do it?" Mr. Sol opened the mouth.

Pintat said without thinking, "It's impossible."

Although he had expected this result, Sol still felt his heart sank when he heard Pintat say it so clearly.Cliff was so ruthless that he pushed me over the edge of a cliff.

Jessica said palely: "So, do you think we have no chance at all?"

Pintat didn't answer, and after pondering for a while, he said to himself: "Actually, it's not impossible..."

As he spoke, he strode to the map and wiped a large area above the Kingdom of Dinar with his hand: "Look, this is the Orc Empire."

Knowing that he had something to say next, Sol and Jessica both looked at him.Sure enough, Pintat followed up and said: "Different from us humans, the orc country is composed of many different races and tribes. Among them, the four most powerful races are Beamon, werewolf, lion man and tauren. They lead the other races. Clans large and small rule over this vast area."

Listening to Pintat's introduction, Saul gradually understood.Different from the northern wasteland, the land occupied by orcs is actually very fertile, and the orcs also have a considerable degree of civilization, not so barbaric that it is hopeless.

In fact, there is no substantial conflict of interest between orcs and humans. They are only hostile to each other because of their differences in physiological structure and beliefs. war"

Saul knew that Pintat must have his reasons for telling him this, so he just listened quietly.

Finally, Pintat said: "Each orc king is selected in turn from these four races. And each race has its own small race attached to it, and the strength can be said to be comparable. Therefore, each replacement During the time of the Beast King, the competition among the four races was very fierce."

After a pause, he said slowly: "The latest information I got a few days ago shows that the elders and patriarchs of all races are currently gathered in Tusk City. It seems that the Orc Empire will elect a new Orc King this year."

"Ah!" Jessica exclaimed and stood up involuntarily.

As if admiring her sharpness, Pintat smiled slightly: "The current Beastman King is held by the Beamon tribe. The Beamon tribe has a longer lifespan and has ruled for a long time. This has somewhat caused dissatisfaction among the other three races. So they all made up their minds To seize the position of Beastman King, the Werewolf Clan has the greatest chance."

"Karrig is the young master of the werewolf tribe, and he is deeply loved by the current patriarch. This time he died, the werewolf tribe must be very angry. You must be very careful." Finally, he solemnly warned.

Thor finally understood why Karig could be the orc's envoy instead of Beamon's princess Amada. It turned out that this involved a power struggle within the orc empire.

Jessica thought about it: "Does the general mean that you want us to take advantage of this opportunity?"

Unexpectedly, Pintat shook his head: "I don't know, I just intuit that this matter should be helpful to you. Orcs are very xenophobic, especially towards humans, but Your Excellency the Earl has a very close relationship with Princess Amada of the Beamon tribe. Well, maybe you can achieve the purpose of this trip through her."

through her?Sol and Jessica glanced at each other, both lost in thought.

Pintat continued: "Except for merchants who sell orc necessities such as salt and iron, it is difficult for human beings to step into the land of orcs. My spies deduced this information because the chiefs of various clans gathered in Fang City. Tomorrow I will report It was reported to the king, and it was revealed to you in advance tonight."

Sol suddenly thought that in the world he came from, when the enemy fell into the quagmire of fighting for power, it was the best time to attack them.He couldn't help but said: "Why don't you take this opportunity to send troops? The orcs are in chaos, isn't it our opportunity?"

In fact, his wishful thinking is that if he really fights, he won't have to die.

"Attack?" Pintat smiled wryly: "We have always been on the defensive against the orcs. According to past experience, every time such a sensitive moment comes, the orcs will gather a large army at the border. There are even temporary wars, with various ethnic groups The precedent of the orc king is selected based on the number of military exploits. Thank God if they don’t fight over, how dare we take the initiative to attack.”

Sol secretly thought that this is the case. It seems that the situation in this world is really similar to the relationship between ancient China and the border nomads in his own world.

Pintat sighed: "I don't know the current situation of the Orc Empire, so I can't provide specific suggestions. The reason why I tell you is to hope that you will be prepared and adapt to the situation when the time comes."

Looking at it like this, he is still not optimistic about Sol's mission this time.

"It's really dangerous. It's hard to guarantee that those orcs won't cut down the envoy's flag because of the disadvantage in the battle for the throne, and then kill the whole army." Thinking of this, Sol couldn't help shivering.

"Anyway, thank you very much for your help." Jessica bowed deeply.

Pintat didn't say anything, just patted Sol's shoulder meaningfully, sighed, and left.

Saul understood his subtext very well: boy, I have done everything I can, so I can do it myself.It's a pity that because of his action, Sol felt more and more hopeless.
