Chapter 117: Thornback and Steel Mane
Sargin and Lexa were outside the Taurazu camp discussing the Bloodrock Shards with the two tribal leaders in charge of the area, next to a number of heroic tribal warriors who had heard the news.
"If these bloodrock fragments really have so many limitations as you say, then they are of little use for the Horde's combat readiness."
Lexar was the first to veto the usefulness of these minerals, and in his opinion, since there were so many restrictions, it didn't seem to be much use for real combat.
"If these ores can be transported quickly to the front line, is there still a chance that it will play a role?"
Sagin still wanted to make the most of the characteristics of these ores, after all, the combat readiness materials that could increase the combat power could bring the situation under full control.
In fact, there are many ways to quickly transport ore, such as using flying mounts to transport or organizing a special team of warlocks to summon people carrying ores through summoning circles......
It's just that Sagin is thinking about whether it is worth spending a lot of manpower and material resources to transport these ores?!
"Lord Sakin, there is one more thing that you may not be aware of, in order for these blood rock fragments to be effective, you need to learn how to use them to enhance combat effectiveness."
The Troll Commander seemed to remember something again, and anxiously reported it to Sakin, which seemed to be a very important piece of information.
"Learn how to use?! Requires some skill, right? Is it hard to learn? ”
Sargin suddenly felt a little bad when he heard the words of the troll leader, if the use of these minerals required special skills, then the idea of throwing them into the battlefield in large quantities would probably be put to an end.
"It's not that it's hard to learn, it's just that to get the most out of these blood rock fragments, you need to learn the shamanic spells of the boar people first, and only a few of the boar people are willing to share the tricks of these spells with us!"
The Troll Commander carefully reported that the boars were in the Barrens almost the same as the centaurs were in the Bleak Lands.
"Boar people? Do they have some special connection to the Bloodrock Shards? ”
Sakin looked at Lexa in surprise, he had never heard of boar people associating with clans outside of his own race, let alone exchanging spell know-how.
"The boar people claim to be descendants of the demigod Agamagan, and they control all these thorny hills and swamps, and no outsiders will touch them."
The Troll Leader hastened to explain to Sakin about the Boar People, the irascible and sinister creatures who had been causing trouble for the Horde.
"Can you tell me more about these boar people? For example, their habits, or who is their supreme leader? ”
As soon as Sakin heard the Troll Leader say this, he immediately knew in his heart that in order to truly control and use these Blood Rock Fragments, he needed to know more about the situation of the Boar People.
"The Boar People are divided into two major clans, the Steelmane Clan is more powerful and warlike, while the Thornback Clan controls the veins of all the Bloodrock Fragments, relying on the power of these minerals to fight the Steelmane Clan."
The Troll Commander was very familiar with the situation of the Boar People, and when he heard that Sakin wanted to know about the Boar People, he began to report it systematically.
"The Boar People are different from other races, they prefer sneak attacks to frontal combat, and they can rely on shamanic spells to fight."
The Troll Warlord continued.
"Just two clans and a civil war?! Looks like these guys are pretty grumpy! ”
Lexa pinched his chin, in his experience, these boar men were only more dangerous than centaurs, belligerent, greedy, and insidious.
"The wild boar people only live in the barren land of the south, and the population is not large, but they have never stopped fighting internally and externally, and they are indeed a troublesome race."
The Troll Leader has been in the Taurazu camp for some time, and the Boar People have been plaguing the tribal defenders of the Southern Barrens.
"You mean these boar people have been harassing the members of the tribe? Why don't you send troops to solve it all at once? ”
Sakin didn't quite understand that the Great Chief should have known about the existence of this long-term threat to the tribe, so why didn't he deal with it earlier?!
"Hey! There have been several encirclements before, but these guys don't fight us head-on, relying on these mountains and swamps overgrown with huge thorny vines. ”
The Troll Commander sighed and said, looking very helpless.
Obviously, it is not easy to fight these primitive races in their homeland and land, after all, people occupy the right place and place.
"Why are these mountains covered with giant thorny vines?"
Sakin frowned at the strange mountains in the distance, the huge thorny vines and the barren landscape looking out of place.
"Legend has it that it was the embodiment of the fallen body of Agamagan, and that these boar people were conceived in the land where he died, which is why it is said that they are descendants of demigods."
Lexa also knows a lot about the boar demigods, and of course takes on the task of explaining them.
"So we're fighting against the will of the demigods? That's not a good thing! What's in those mountains and swamps you're talking about? There should be more than just boar people, right? ”
Sakin pondered carefully, he always felt that even if he was a demigod descendant, the boar people were not as powerful as centaurs, but why would they be so fearless and constantly provoke in the places occupied by the tribe!
"We've sent many scouts to investigate, but very few have returned, and even if they come back alive, they don't seem to remember what they've seen!"
The Troll Leader shook his head and reported to Sakin, who seemed to have fully accepted the tribal leader with the rank of Stone Guard.
"I can't remember anything I've seen?!"
Woking looked at Lexa, who nodded, as if they were thinking of the same thing.
"Swamps and mountains, which are easier to get into?"
Sakin asked directly, and the troll commander was a little caught off guard by the question, not knowing what Sakin's intention was by asking this question at all, and he was stunned for a moment.
"The swamps and the outer parts of the mountains are actually easily accessible, but the core area is very tricky."
The other orc commander turned out to be a little bit more involved in scouting the boarmen's territory, so he knew a little more thoroughly.
"The perimeter is easily accessible? Where is the core area? ”
Sakin asked, apparently interested in areas that the tribes had not explored.
"You see, the muddy area in the center of the swamp, which we call the Razor Swamp, is full of dangerous bogs and lurking boar people, but we haven't been able to go deeper into it."
The Orc Commander pulled out a whole hide, with marks and symbols skewed across it.
"In the mountains on the other side, there is a huge skull, which is the head of the demigod Agamagan, and from there you enter the core area of the mountain, Razor Heights."
Sakin looked at the map of the animal skins and frowned, these two places were surrounded by mountains and bad waters, and they were really not easy places to reach.
