Chapter 202: I'm the Great Chief?
Chapter 202: I'm the Great Chief?
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Taking a deep breath and shaking my head, I could only reluctantly accept the reality.
First of all, no matter what I say, is there a way for me to refuse Hades' test?
Even if he deliberately wanted to toss me, could I still resist? What can I do to say no in this damn completely strange place, thrown into an unknown world by Hades at will? That bastard didn't ask my opinion at all!
And on the other hand, Hades is Ding Ding's father. Even for Dingding's sake, I have to tolerate him a little. Anyway, it's just a test, and it's not a deliberate attempt to kill me, and it's a good thing to be able to exchange for my own strength through all these tribulations.
Look at me now, I'm more than ten times stronger than when I first came to the Realm.
Through all kinds of hardships and struggles, my potential has been well developed. If in the past I relied mostly on Ding Ding outbursts and help, now I am completely relying on my own strength. Now I can single-handedly take out a powerful Dreadlord and an even more terrifying Hellfire, which was almost impossible for me in the past.
All in all, it is not without benefit to accept the test of Lord Hades. That being the case, of course, I'm ready to move forward.
After listening to Hatsue Misaka's account of what happened during my coma, I made the decision to be tested.
After gulping down a bowl of soup, my body regained its strength. After getting up from the bed. I decided to take a look at the neighborhood to decide what to do next.
Push open the door and walk out. What I saw was wounded soldiers all over the ground. Countless dying orcs lay haphazardly on the ground, with only a rudimentary grass hut above their heads to shield them from the sun. Clumps of dead grass lay on the ground. The orcs lay in a mess, one by one. Even in the sun, their bodies take on an absolutely abnormal dark red. I believe that if they can find a shady environment, I believe their state will be much better. But looking around me, I realized that the only house in the neighborhood was the one I had just walked out of. Apparently they gave me the only house, which made my sense of orcs a little better.
Looking into the distance, the dark red barren world made me frown. The world looks even more inhospitable than the Shadow Forest, with only dry stone forests visible to the naked eye. There was a pungent smell in the air, and the sky was so gray that it was almost falling. After a week of observation, I only found a few small trees in the distance, which were not suitable for any living creatures.
Orcs. Is it just living in such a terrible environment?
And my mission is to take the orcs to find paradise in such a bad world? I go, how can such a task be completed?
Full of black lines, my displeasure with Hades increased by two points.
"Ahem! Terran, are you awake? A hoarse voice suddenly sounded, but it was a burly orc not far from me who sat up. His body was covered with rough bandages, and even his forehead was wrapped like an Indian Ahsan. Looking at me with a strange expression, the orc grinned, "It's incredible, I can't imagine that we orcs are alive because of your help." It's even more unbelievable. Is it providence that you, a strange Terran, would return to the orc's home with the teleportation array? ”
"Providence?" I pouted, is that Hades' action a providence?
But after hearing this orc talk about it so much, I finally remembered who he really was. It should be called Lyle Birch, right? The only remaining orc clan leader.
"If it weren't for the guidance of the spirit of the ancestors. How could a mysterious human like you be brought into this desolate world? Nodding recklessly, Lyle Huazhi looked at me with a very expectant gaze: "It must be the spirit of the ancestors who heard our prayers and sent you to help us." After seeing what you've done in the Shadow Forest. I believe you will be the hope of our orcs. ”
Seeing my unhappy expression, Lyle Huazhi paused: "It is precisely because of this. The orcs would rather let yourself die in the sun than get you harmed. Even the limited food that remains. They also take the initiative to give you the fattest and most nutritious parts. ”
As soon as these words came out, I was immediately angry.
If there was anything else I would be unhappy with, I would have refused, but when I thought that these orcs had helped me and would rather suffer myself than take care of me, I suddenly couldn't refute it. There is a saying, if he treats me as a countryman, I will repay him as a countryman. The orcs treated me with such an attitude, and I couldn't do it if I wanted to. Even in the bottom of my heart, I have a very dark sense of pride.
It seems that there is only one Lao Tzu who can be so admired by the orcs! Haha!
In that case, my brother should be merciful and help them!
Nodding, I affirmed his request with Lyle's expectant gaze. Looking at him and then at the other orcs, I admitted, "Okay! If I could, I would indeed like to be able to help you. I believe that if you can be self-reliant, you will not continue to invade other races, right? Cough! It's too early to say anything, but can you tell us a little bit about your hometown? ”
"Thank you!" Thanking him excitedly, Lyle Huazhi suddenly changed his tone and said, "Let Charlene give you a good introduction to the situation in our orc hometown, Grand Chief Xu Yu!" ”
"Great Chief?" My eyes widened.
"That's right! The hero who can lead the orcs to find freedom and hope, he must be our Great Chief! Nodding affirmatively, Lyle Birch said with an expression of no hesitation: "Originally, I thought that it would be Saya who would lead the orcs to glory in the future, but I didn't expect that he would use his life to redeem the mistakes he made. Now, although his sacrifice has kept us alive, we have also lost the leader who can lead the orcs. Now that you're willing to lead the orcs in their search for hope, you're the new Great Chief of the orcs! ”
Staring at me closely, Lyle Birch's attitude didn't seem to allow me to refute. He seemed to have put everything in me, and it was no wonder that he would give me all the most precious food and house. After determining that I was the hope of the spirit of the ancestors, he did not doubt me.
In this way, I am even more embarrassed to refuse!
But if I really became the Great Chief, wouldn't it be easier to instruct the orcs to obey my orders? If all the orcs had acted on my orders instead of disobeying or openly resisting, my job would seem to be much easier.
With that in mind, I simply nodded and accepted the title.
Looking at me in surprise, Lyle Birch called out to all the orcs. As soon as all the orcs struggled to their feet, he led the orcs in saluting me. One by one, the orcs slammed their right fists on their chests, as if they wanted to imprint my appearance and identity in their hearts.
Although the ritual was simple, the enthusiastic eyes of the orcs made me feel the weight of this burden.
But now that I've decided to accept it, I'm not going to be hypocritical.
Just do it without any hesitation. Nodding my head to accept the position, I immediately began to exercise the authority of the Great Chief. First of all, I ordered Lyle Birch to carry all the seriously injured orcs into the house to hide from the sun, and I instructed Lyle Birch to find someone to give me a detailed description of the current situation. Then two squads of the better orcs were summoned to find food and water, and after doing so, I finally had time to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Misaka, do you think I'm right or wrong to do this? After all, the orcs did such a wrong thing, but I don't care about helping them now...... "I still have some entanglements in my heart, but I don't have any other choice at the moment. The friends of the Shadow Forest are still in my heart, but now I want to help their enemies. Anyway, I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.
"Misaka doesn't know, but Xu Yu doesn't actually have a choice, does he?" Misaka Hatsue said expressionlessly, leaving me speechless with one sentence.
Yes, can I still choose to say no? Hades's test, but I didn't say that I could ignore these orcs!
Never mind! Think of it as an RPG! If all the orcs and those in the Shadow Forest were NPCs, maybe I would feel better. I'll just think I'm going through one copy after another in the game, and that's how Hades' test is anyway.
When I thought about it, I was suddenly interested.
I've never felt the same situation as I do now, commanding a large group of powerful soldiers! Watching these powerful orcs bow down to me and act strictly according to my commands, I have a sense of arrogance to command a thousand troops. It's a lot of fun to play!
Of course, before I can play the game, I have to know the general background of the game, all the resources I have, and what I need to do to complete the tasks assigned by the GM. In that case, I need an assistant who knows all about it to help me introduce those things. Of course, this assistant must be an orc, and even Lyle Birch has mentioned a certain name before.
Charlene?
It sounds like a strange name! It always felt like I was overlooking something.
Then when I saw this Charlene, I realized what I had forgotten, I had forgotten that there were female orcs in the orcs. All the orcs in my sight were stout males from before to now, so much so that I ignored the other group of orcs.
The elderly, the weak, women and children.
They...... They don't seem to be here! I had a feeling that the difficulty of the game had been raised tenfold. (To be continued......)
