Batu's heart trembled, and the situation before him was both in its thoughts and unexpected.

Not only did this human not only have to take all of its scrolls, but also turn them into his slaves, which was equivalent to saying that Batu's identity as the inheritor of the great Ogre Empire was to become a young human subordinate, this human was the most cunning human Batu had ever seen, and on the other hand, it also made it feel surprisingly angry.

Didn't he know that ogres were unwilling to succumb to the orcs and used arcane magic to blow up the mallet?

Batu despises humanity, but the very real problem in front of him is that if he refuses, he may become the soul of the sword in the hands of the human in front of him.

The threat of death kept Batu from talking. Locke did not continue to persecute, but swung the Destroyer of Worlds to send out a sonic boom in the air.

The fire demon was not as anxious as just now, it looked at the ogre head in front of it, and then looked at Locke beside him, compared to the silence of the two, the fire demon's heart was more full of boring emotions, it was boring that Locke kept co-opting these mortal races, how to defeat the ancient gods.

It was clear that once Batu said no, Locke would not be able to co-opt the ogre, let alone use the army to solve the things he had been talking about, such as forging new alliances. Of course, killing the Ogre Führer is pleasant, but it doesn't seem to be the solution, and sooner or later the corpses controlled by necromancy will emit a foul smell.

It will also be exposed, thinking of this, the fire demon sighed, this kid's wishful thinking may still be empty.

Locke swung his greatsword and poured fire elemental energy into the blade, spitting flames on the blade, and as long as Batu refused, then he killed him with a single sword.

He didn't think as much as the Flame Demon, from the beginning, he had already planned it, once the Ogre Führer rejected his proposal, then although the black technology of the Ogre Empire was fascinating, he could only give up.

Locke will make the ogre leader Batu as an undead, and control this ogre tribe from behind the scenes, and when he can't hide it anymore, this ogre tribe has already been used by him.

While it would be a waste to use these ogres as cannon fodder, Locke had to get the army of the old tribe, and with these ogre tribes, plus the deadwood troll tribe, no force in the Arathi Heights could stop Locke's rise.

Neither the kingdom of Stormgard nor Haka, the blood god of Zur Grab, could stop his rise in the Arathi Heights.

An army of ogres and trolls will soon be able to sweep through the Arathi Heights and fend off the Scourge legion.

Recovering the old horde was Locke's first step in setting himself up to change the world.

Now, whether this first step will be taken smoothly is on the answer of the silent ogre, Locke calmly waved his greatsword and waited for the ogre to speak, but he still faintly felt some unease.

It doesn't matter if it even attracts the attention of the Bronze Dragon, if you can't build up your power as soon as possible, I'm afraid that when the Scourge Legion sweeps through the Arathi Heights, this place will become purgatory.

After waiting three minutes, Locke said to himself in his mind.

The ogre Batu seemed to have made up his mind, he trembled, his fat body trembled, and he said slowly: "I am willing to be a slave of the adults, and the entire ogre tribe will be loyal to you." ”

It's not hard to choose, Batu has already been a slave of the orcs.

The faint morning sun slowly rose from the foot of the mountain, the birdsong echoed in the grassland, and the timeline of Azeroth had changed at this moment.

Locke smiled slightly: "This is great. Tonight's battle has cost your tribe dearly, go outside Riptide Castle and set up a stronghold, and when the opportunity comes, I'll call you up. ”

………………

As the sun rose, Riptide Castle, which had been noisy all night, calmed down at this moment, and there was neither the roar of ogres nor the shouts of humans in Riptide Castle at this moment.

However, underneath this calm there was a torrent, and for the soldiers who had fought the ogre last night, the casualties had never been so low today.

Originally, it was thought that the ogre would attack the humans in a big way for revenge this morning, but in the early morning, there was a different change.

The ogres violated their vindictive instincts by leading the entire tribe to retreat from Riptide Castle in the morning, while also vacating the mage area and returning the mage quarter they had occupied for five years to the delight of all the humans in Riptide Castle.

However, several knights in Riptide Castle looked very sad, the ogre escaped from Riptide Castle for no reason, they couldn't figure it out, since that cunning Batu came to power, all kinds of strange tactics made the legions of Riptide Castle suffer a lot of losses, obviously, this Batu is planning some strange tactics again.

…………

Locke led the ogre to the Elemental Stone Formation not far to the right of Riptide Castle, where there were no elemental creatures for a long time, and the large number of stones was enough for the ogre to establish a stronghold.

He has a lot to do now, and last night's battle has reduced the number of Stonefist ogres to 120, and since he has established a decree prohibiting cannibalism, the food problem in front of him has become a primary issue.

Another thing is how to get the ogre back into combat effectiveness.

He wrote a letter to Grand Chief Ryan asking the Deadwood Tribe to send some dried meat and food to the Stonefist Ogre, as well as for the Ogre to train in combat and for Batu to re-solidify the Arcane Ghost.

He knew about potential dangers, such as whether the cavalry units in Riptide would send legions to exterminate the ogres after finding out the exact number of ogres, and whether the orcs in Hammer Town would wage an all-out war against the Deadwood Tribe.

He coughed, and took a piece of bone armor that glowed purple from Batu's complimented hand, this armor made from the bones of Gelong in the Outlands, the secret treasure of the Ogre Empire.

【Gelong's Skeletal Plate Armor】Epic, purple

120-155 defense

+8 Strength

+5 Constitution

Attack damage increased by 15

Reduces damage by 5 on upcoming damage, and has no effect on spell damage.

"Geron's bones are absolutely hard, comparable to dragon bones."

He walked out of the cave, the busy ogres building their stone houses in the elemental stone formation, and not far away, in the light of the rising sun of dawn, Riptide Castle seemed to be plated with a faint layer of gold.

It was the starting point of what was once a great empire.
