Chapter 136: Choice
Bridget had experienced the battle in the Alterac Mountains and knew the power of the orc wolf rider, but as a knight, she was obviously not afraid of death, even if the orcs were standing not far away, her expression was still normal.
"Bridget...... Now the situation has changed, and you have seen it...... This time the people who came to attack the city were the people of the Cursed Church, they used to call themselves the Eternal Church, recruiting believers everywhere, but behind the scenes, they used dark magic to transform those corpses into undead, and tried to control the whole world, and now they are our worst enemies, those orcs are also in a hostile relationship with the Cursed Church, and we can unite to fight against the Cursed Church. Song Zheng had to try his best to explain, hoping that the two sides could avoid war.
"But...... Orcs have always been our enemies......" Bridge still looked a little hesitant, after all, all she saw and heard since she was a child was that orcs were enemies of humans.
Song Zheng naturally knew very well that it would be very difficult to change everyone's deep-rooted views since childhood, when he nodded slightly and said: "Yes, it was before, and it may be in the future, but not for the time being, and they have now accepted the prophecy of a human prophet, and they want to leave the Eastern Kingdom and travel across the Endless Sea to the Western Continent, I want them to stay away from the Human Kingdom from now on, which is far better than us paying a lot of casualties to destroy them." ”
"These orcs want to cross the Endless Sea? The ocean has no end at all, and it is full of all kinds of dangers, and if you are not careful, you will be swallowed by the sea, and even the best fleet of mankind will not dare to go there......" Some of the soldiers around him who were familiar with the sea immediately exclaimed.
"Wouldn't it be better, those orcs let them go if they want, and it's better that they never come back." Song Zheng laughed in a low voice.
"The orcs...... Really going across the Endless Sea? A scarred veteran still had doubts in his eyes.
Bridget saw Song Zheng looking at the old man with some hesitation, and hurriedly introduced: "This is the mayor of Nanhai Town, Heni Mareb, and this time the city is defended by relying on the town elder himself to command the battle to defend it for so long. ”
"It turned out to be the mayor." Song Zheng was slightly surprised in his heart, although he had been in Nanhai Town for a long time, but with his status at that time, it was impossible to meet these high-ranking officials.
"Those orcs can't have some other intentions......" Henny Mareb looked worriedly at the murderous orcs not far away.
Song Zheng immediately said: "It shouldn't be, in fact, in addition to going to these orcs, that prophet has also been to Dalaran and King Lordaeron to give warnings, I have also seen it before, I am convinced of his prophecy, and now ...... We only need a few ships to make these orcs disappear from Lordaeron once and for all, which is a great thing. ”
"Need to send a ship to these orcs? Well, those ships are ours, why should we give them to those orcs? Immediately, there was opposition from the crowd.
"Those ships are ours, but...... If we all die here, those ships will still be obtained by the orcs, and the entire town of Nanhai may be plundered and slaughtered by the orcs, in comparison, I think it is better to send them a few ships, unless you think that this broken wall can still hold back the charge of the orcs, and ...... I might want to remind you that the previous earthquake was actually caused by the orc shamans using their special magic. Song Zheng said.
Before he could finish speaking, the crowd immediately exploded.
"What? The earthquake was caused by the orcs?! ”
"How is this possible, to create an earthquake?"
"This is true, I just came from the royal capital of Lordaeron, and I happened to see the people of the Cursed Church attacking Nanhai Town, I originally wanted to destroy the logistics of the Cursed Church, but after killing a few of their mages, they found out and were chased all the way, and then I met those orcs in the mountains and forests, and saw their shamans use seismology to provide cover for their wolf cavalry charge." Song Zheng said.
After getting Song Zheng's affirmative reply, the crowd immediately fell silent, obviously the previous earthquake had brought them too much shock, and now after learning that the earthquake was man-made, the shock in everyone's hearts was even greater.
"There are indeed some large ocean-going ships in the harbor now, originally prepared for the last retreat in case the undead can't stop them, if those orcs really want to go to the Endless Sea, they can be ......," Herni Mareb finally said with some hesitation.
A smile appeared on Song Zheng's face, in fact, he could guess that the people in Nanhai Town would definitely not object to his suggestion, after all, not everyone was willing to fight with the orcs, especially most of the merchants in Nanhai Town were the most profit-oriented merchants.
The rest of the people were obviously relieved when they saw that the mayor of the town had agreed to send the ship, and those orc wolf riders on the other side had indeed put a lot of pressure on them.
"Mayor Mare is a very wise choice, the most important thing for us now is to deal with the Cursed Church, they are now trying to turn the entire kingdom of Lordaeron into a world of the undead, as for those orcs, let them go to the western continent to fight the beasts of those wild lands." Song Zheng said.
He quickly returned to the orc's team and informed Thrall of the human's decision.
"They have agreed to provide ships capable of ocean voyages, and they are willing to provide enough food and fresh water, but ...... Crossing the Endless Sea is a very dangerous thing to do, and you had better be prepared for it first. Song Zheng reminded.
"I know, but I believe in the prophet's prophecy, I can feel that he has an incredible power, and if we continue to stay in this eastern continent, we will only be in a long war with humanity, and our numbers simply cannot withstand the wear and tear of such a long battle." Thrall sighed under his breath.
He didn't hide anything from Song Zheng, the biggest reason why the orcs decided to go to the Kalimdor continent was to avoid humans for the time being, in order to find a land where they could establish their own base for redevelopment.
"Then I'll wish you the best of luck, but I think it won't be long before I go to the western continent as well." Song Zheng said with a smile.
When Sal heard this, he immediately showed surprise: "You are also going to the western continent?" ”
"Of course...... I also believe in the prophet's prophecy, perhaps more than anyone else. ”
