Chapter 5: Tribes (Part 1)

When he walked out of the barracks, it was already dark, and Mogolin tried to light a torch, Claudia walked up to him, approached him under his guarded gaze, and said to him sincerely, "Let me come." ”

Then, the knight girl called for the help of the Holy Light, and a large amount of Holy Light condensed on the top of the torch, emitting a dazzling light, and Mogolin's hand trembled, and he almost threw the torch on the ground, but he soon found that the torch was not hot, but simply shiny.

The orc shook his head and continued to lead the way, muttering something in his mouth: "Wizard's trick." ”

Claudia retreated to Gianna's side, just now the archmage was looking at the knight girl and the orcs curiously, and when she saw the girl return to her side, the beautiful archmage asked, "I see that you don't hate orcs like everyone else?" ”

"Well, yes." Claudia answered, and then explained with some trepidation: "The justice of chivalric virtues should not apply only to human beings, and whether life is evil or not should be judged by deeds, not by race." ”

If this theory is placed in the previous Lordaeron, there is no doubt that it is a fallacy, a large part of the members of the Northern Brotherhood of Light are staunch racists, not to mention orcs, even dwarves and elves look down on it, believing that only humans can be favored by the Holy Light, Marshal Garithas, the great general Abydis, and now the leader of the Northern Brotherhood of Light, Da Sohan, etc., are all representatives of the supremacy of mankind.

Claudia's words resonated with Gianna, and although many people around her were full of various disparages or hatred for orcs, as a practical mage, Gianna preferred to judge orcs in her own way.

She looked at the knight maiden as if she had known Claudia for the first time, and said, "I have seen many paladins, and among them, you have the deepest insight into the virtues of knighthood, and I agree with you, which is one of the reasons why I have taken you with me." ”

Gianna then admonished, "I will try to avoid conflict when I get to the tribe, but I must not let them think that we are weak and deceitful, and you may need to intervene if necessary." ”

Claudia nodded in agreement, and then a spell appeared on her, and Gianna had already cast a spell for Claudia to know the language.

The orc warrior not far ahead also heard the conversation between the two women, but he didn't react, in his opinion humans were far less upright than orcs, and their words were often not very credible, but he decided to write down the conversation between the two women and relay it to the High Chief later.

As soon as the three of them stepped into the camp on the tribal side, the light from Mogolin's torches had already attracted the attention of many tribesmen, and then they surrounded him, and Mogolin yelled, "Get out of the way, don't be rude, they are the honored guests of the patriarchs." ”

The tribe didn't have the same clear hierarchy here as the Alliance, and although they gave way to it, their eyes were still focused on the two girls, the minotaurs were mostly curious, the orcs were mostly unsightly, and some trolls tried to intimidate the two girls from afar.

But neither Gianna nor Claudia were unmoved, and followed Mogolin as usual, their calmness gained some respect, and soon they walked to the large tent in the center.

There were several braziers in the big tent of the tribal leader, which dispelled the cold of the mountain night and provided some light, and the high-ranking members of the tribe were forming a half circle facing the tent entrance, and the firelight reflected their faces uncertainly, and when the three of them stepped into the tent, the dazzling holy light on the Mogolin torch instantly illuminated the entire tent.

Standing in the center is Thrall in black plate armor, to his left is an old shaman with white hair during the day, and to his left is an orc with gray skin. To Thrall's right is a tall minotaur, next to the minotaur is a young troll with long red hair and long fangs, and two orc warriors stand at the bottom of the left and right.

Mogolin had already realized his mistake, turned his head and said, "Witch, quickly accept your tricks, and don't be disrespectful to the patriarchs." ”

Claudia's mind moved, the holy light on the top of the torch suddenly disappeared, and the eyes of the members of the tribe were already focused on the two girls at this moment, they were obviously a little surprised that the alliance came from two human girls, but after the surprise, many people's attitudes quickly turned to contempt or arrogance.

The two orc warriors snorted disdainfully, most of the women in the orcs were not of high status, not to mention that the two human girls in front of them were far thinner than the female orcs, especially one of them still had a young face.

The leader of the Minotaur raised his head and squinted his eyes, in his opinion, the eyes of the souls of the two girls had not yet been fully opened, they were just two little hairy children who were still learning, and they could not help but be weak.

Gianna didn't care about the attitude of the tribe, she had already guessed that she might be despised because of her status as a woman, she just watched Sal in the middle carefully, trying to see his reaction.

Mogolin walked up to Sal and whispered a few words, Sal's face was complicated, and he was the first to speak: "Both, I am the current chief of the tribe, the son of Durotan, Sal. ”

Gianna took a step forward and introduced herself, "I am Gianna, the royal daughter of Kul Tiras, and I am also the supreme leader of the alliance side on the current Camlido continent. ”

Thrall then introduced the people around him, including the Minotaur leader Kane Bloodhoof, the troll chief Woking, the old shaman Drektar, and Thrall's lieutenant Itreig, and finally two members of Thrall's personal guard, Blox and Nazgrell, and Gianna also introduced Claudia, calling her her bodyguard.

Thrall then asked, "The Prophet has asked us to form an alliance and fight the demons together, how much power can you provide now?" ”

Gianna replied, "The team we came to find the Prophet this time is not large, only a hundred people, but a large part of them are mages and priests, all of whom are the elite of our army. ”

Thrall immediately showed a look of disappointment when he heard this, and the other people looked at Gianna with even more disdain, especially the two orc warriors, among the orcs have always respected strength, and the weak are naturally despised.

Brooks said angrily to Sal: "Sal, let's dispel the idea of letting the alliance join, what can they do with this little number?" If we don't attack them, we are already respecting the covenant. ”
