Chapter 328: The Meat Grinder for Human Greenskin
"Here? Lord, I set foot here four thousand years ago, and all the lands behind us belonged to the great Nehekhara dynasty, when the humans here were only hairy barbarians, and the green skins were only the prey to be slaughtered under our iron hooves and wheels, and this was only a conquered land. ”
Although there were only terrible white bones on his face, and no expression could be seen, Amanam Horton's tone was full of unbeatable pride and memories of the past eventful years, like a general who returned with honor.
Stone knew that he was not bragging, when the Nehekhara Dynasty was at its peak, it was stronger than the current empire and Bretonnia combined, and it was definitely the most powerful human kingdom in history, and it was also the peak of the strength of the Order camp at that time.
At that time, the settlements of the High Elves were all over the world, occupying most of the transportation arteries; The dwarves, who have mastered the highest technology, come out of the mountains and thrive; Not to mention the demon toads and lizardmen of the "Lustria" continent, any of them can sweep through the current old world.
It's a pity that the prosperity must decline, with a series of accidental and inevitable events, the Skaven rat people, chaos dwarves, dark elves, tomb kings, and vampires have appeared on the stage of history in turn, and their appearance and rise have greatly weakened the strength of the order camp.
Today, although the center of the Old World has been controlled by humans, and the Empire, Bretonnia, Kislev, and even the Three Far East have become the mainstays, their strength is still not comparable to that of the past, and they may be able to beat Nehekara together, but the other races have long since fallen far behind.
The High Elves can only live in a remote corner of the island, always guarding against the attacks of the Dark Pirates; The dwarves are flanked by the greenskins on the ground and the underground ratmen, and they have long been too busy to take care of themselves; What about lizardmen? They are forever passively guarding their "City of Temples", waiting for the realization of some great plan.
As for what is the Great Plan? I'm afraid that even the oldest "Demon Toad Priest", Master Mazda Moody, can't answer.
At this moment, all the singing and dancing are illusions, like a gravel castle standing on the seashore, no matter how magnificent, when the flood beasts of the chaos army rush in, these baseless prosperity and splendor will be brushed away like the exquisite makeup on a woman's face, leaving only a miserable devastation.
At that time, it was the real end of the world.
But it seems that only Stone knows all this now, and he clearly understands that the current situation will not last long, just like the calm before the storm, the fragile balance is only the prelude to the violent chaos, and soon the balance of order and chaos will be broken, and it is the latter who has the last laugh.
"Okay, okay, I know you used to be great, now ...... Don't talk about it, if you have a chance in the future, you can go back to Nekhkala and see it yourself."
Stone said slightly depressed.
The former Nehekhara, now the "Land of the Dead", as the name suggests, has become a realm of the undead, although it is still very powerful, but like the High Elves and the Lizardmen, they can only guard their own one-third of an acre of land, and then kill each other.
When the final time of life and death came, in the face of the menacing and fierce dark forces, the order and neutral camps were finally forced to stand on the same front, but they were still intrigued with each other, and the final result was self-evident, so in general, it was a sentence, Du Te was a pig teammate, and if he wanted to survive, he still had to rely on himself.
This is also why after Stone Crossing found out that he was a greenskin, he basically cut off his plans to be involved with other order races.
Because you know the background, whether it is the greenskins, the undead, the ogres or the vampires, the forces of these neutral camps are no different from those chaos believers in the eyes of the order race, they are all evil existences, and they will definitely not become allies and advance and retreat together unless they have to.
The blood feud accumulated over thousands of years is not so easy to pass, just like humans and greenskins, the black fire pass under their feet does not know how many corpses of soldiers on both sides are buried.
Thinking of this, without waiting for Amanam Horton to respond, the stone said to himself:
"The Black Fire Trail is a double-edged sword, on the one hand, it is a strong shield for the Empire, and on the other hand, due to the lack of other better paths, it becomes a shortcut for invaders to cross the Black Mountains."
"Since Sigma led the human tribe and the dwarf alliance to slaughter a large number of greenskins here, laying the cornerstone of the founding of the country in one fell swoop, this has become a battleground for soldiers, and it is also a bridgehead for greenskins, whether it is "Iron Claw" Gobard or "Misty Mountain Potbelly King" Gollum, for more than a thousand years, the greenskinned powerhouses who have emerged from the badlands have first broken through here, and then killed into the territory of the empire, opening a feast of killing and blood."
Looking at the narrow passage outside the carriage, like a winding rock corridor, the stone said word by word.
"Here's a meat grinder of humans and greenskins."
His gaze was once again out of the window, and the towering cliffs stood straight on both sides of the road like sharp swords, and the bare cliffs were covered with rocks like guns, like spikes on maces, they were natural "glass" crystallized after the hot magma of the volcanic eruption, shining like obsidian in the sunlight.
After the research of the Imperial scholars, the formation of the Black Fire Trail seems to be related to a large-scale crustal activity that affected the entire world, when the sleeping volcanoes of the Black Mountains began to erupt, hot magma flowed freely, and finally the successive mountains were separated, and a black passage like a knife mark was formed, and since then, it has become a dead land where no living thing can live, which is why most of the time, humans have been able to defend this pass.
Even green-skinned spores can't survive in this black soil, so when the green-skinned corpses are in the wilderness, their corpses can't take root here, and they can't grow in cycles, and the defenders don't have to burn them again after the war.
In addition, the most peculiar thing about the Black Fire Pass is the weather, where the sun is shining a second ago, and it can immediately turn into an eerie wind with black clouds overpowering the city.
Just as the stone was staring out the window, the sparse sound of rain began to sound, and the sunny day suddenly turned into a heavy downpour, and the mist spread outward from the cracks in the rocks, and the entire passage was instantly shrouded in mist.
The merchants and mercenaries outside the car complained, but when the stone saw it, he grinned toothily, turned to the tomb king, and said:
"It's time, old bones, and we'll see you later." ()
