Chapter 30: The Orc Siege
Seeing that Hogg did not attack him, Hamuel cautiously greeted Hogg, and hoped that Hogg could restrain these gnolls who were gnawing on the hooves of Hamuel, Hogg noticed that these little brothers under him did not behave, so he glared at his little brothers fiercely, and immediately frightened these gnolls who guarded the door, among which the gnoll captain may be smarter, and it immediately remembered that the last time Hogg returned to the fortress was blocked by a few of their guards, In a rage, he stood up straight in a shudder, and then kicked up the few gnolls who were still hugging the druids one by one, and then opened the fortress gates, and respectfully said to Hogg in a stiff lingua franca, "Boss, please come in." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" At the same time, the tail was still wagging flatteringly from side to side, and seeing that there was such a person among his younger brothers who knew the times, Hogg was satisfied and took the druid into the Riverclaw Fortress.
Although Hogg took the druids into the fortress, Hogg, who can't speak now, still can't communicate with the druids, but it doesn't want to let go of its hope of returning to human form like this, and as long as Hogg doesn't drive them away, they are also unwilling to leave, after all, a new demigod is rare to be so friendly now, so the druids also feel that they can take the opportunity to do their daily work in this gnoll fortress, find a demigod to brush up their reputation or something.
After all, Hogg's attitude is much better than those wood-throated bear monsters who come up to shout and kill, many young druids were seriously injured by these hateful bear monsters when they took the wrong path in the Moonlight Glade, and one of their dens is on the mountain of the Moonlight Glade, but because they are loyal followers of the elder bear monster demigod Ursok and Ursol brothers, so the druids do not dare to hold the bear monster responsible, and can only warn the young druids that these bear monsters do not welcome strangers.
Hogg gently scratched his chin with the paws of his hind legs, and then he thought of an idea, so he took these druids to the alchemy hut of the gnolls, and handed them over to his alchemy mentor, the elder of the gnolls, Cohen, who was obviously stunned when he saw Hogg's new appearance, but quickly reacted, and after communicating with Hogg, the elder took the druids to settle in the fortress, and then used these druids when rebuilding the riverpaw fortress.
So in the following days, Hogg finally understood why these druids respected it so much, after all, Hogg knew the name of demigod, but it didn't expect that he could become a demigod one day, so now Hogg doesn't think about turning back into a jackal, and Hogg, who thinks it's okay to become a demigod, has no pursuit at all, and he naps at the main entrance of the Riverclaw Fortress during the day, and sleeps in the open space in the center of the fortress at night, When he was hungry, he went to the sea to catch some fish or something to eat, a decadent style of a pet dog, and Hogg actually found such a daily life quite comfortable.
But the good days generally don't last long, Hogg's days of eating and waiting for death seem to be coming to an end, there are more and more orcs in the western wilderness recently, this group of green orcs are searching for food everywhere, but because Hogg has already ordered his jackals and humans to harvest wheat in advance and put it in storage, these orcs have not found enough food, and now these orcs don't know where to learn that there is enough food here in Yuexi Town, so they began to increase their forces in the western wilderness, This meant that Hogg's idea of avoiding war with the orcs by shrinking his defenses had been frustrated.
On the other hand, the druids heard the news of the orc's imminent arrival and suggested that if the matter was urgent, Hogg could take his men across the Endless Sea, and then find a new home on the continent of Kalimdor, just as the Deerhelms were about to sail to the Western Wilderness. So with the help of the druids, Hogg himself went into battle, and spent several days digging out a simple harbor on the beach on the west side of the western wilderness, so now it depends on when the deerhelm will arrive, but the orcs in the western wilderness seem to have gathered enough troops to attack the riverpaw fortress soon, it seems that before the deerhelm arrives, the gnolls still have to fight the orcs first.
The war with the orcs is approaching, and now the residents of Mooncreek Town have evacuated from Mooncreek Town and entered the Riverpaw Fortress, for which Hogg has repeatedly issued orders to let his jackals control their mouths and not eat anything that should not be eaten (mainly humans), from the druids, Hogg has learned that the reason why the demigods are immortal is precisely because the believers of the demigods are devoutly believing in these demigods, so for these devout humans who believe in themselves, Hogg, who has been unable to use the power of the ancient gods' sacrifices to brainwash and get new believers, is particularly important, and of course, Hogg is also cultivating the believers in the Riverpaw clan, and the leader of these believers is the elder Kohn of the Gnolls, but due to the limited time, these gnolls don't seem to be pious enough.
Speaking of the orcs, the leader of these orcs is the chief of the famous Dragonthroat Clan, Zuluhid, and his deputy Nekruth, he and his Dragonthroat Clan have relied on the power of the Demon Soul to enslave the Red Dragon Queen Alexstasa in the original history, forcing the Red Dragons to participate in the war between the Orcs and the Alliance, and even in the later stages of the war, the Dragonthroat Clan once became the main force of the Orcs, if it weren't for Ronin who successfully destroyed the Demon Soul with the help of Crassus, The Dragonthroat Clan may even become the most powerful clan among the orcs, but now Hogg has already destroyed the Demon Soul, so the hegemony of the Dragonthroat Clan has come to an end before it has begun, but the fate is so wonderful, the Dragonthroat Clan and the Riverpaw Clan led by Hogg who were sent to the Western Wilderness by the current Great Chief Blackhan Black Hand still met unexpectedly in the Western Wilderness.
After confirming that his forces had been assembled, Zuluhid did not waste time, and he led his orcs to surround the Riverpaw Fortress as soon as he gave the order, and then he came to the main gate of the fortress under the protection of several elite guards, and said loudly to the gnolls standing on the wooden wall that were not very high, "Now you are about to face the wrath of the tribal warriors, unless you obediently open the gate and hand over your food, Otherwise, be prepared to shed your blood for this! ”
