Chapter 267: The Civil War Escalates

For the orcs, the ritual of electing a high priest is much simpler than the various civil wars during the struggle for the position of high chief. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

The Orc Clan's current High Priest has a total of 5 back-ups, of which 3 are Camog's disciples and 2 are recommended by the think tank. Several of them are the leaders of the think tank, and they have strong minds and execution skills that can solve most of the internal problems of the orcs. It's just that they are different in terms of style, carefulness, network, experience, etc. Among them, the most vocal is the 2nd disciple of Camog, Skarth Redtail of the Scorpion Clan.

The scorpion clan among the orc clan also often has some peerless wise men, and they are frequent visitors to the orc empire's think tank. The Scorpion Clan is known for its vicious and inhumane tactics. Chosen by the strategy of the scorpion people, even if he does not die, he has to return a layer of skin alive. Because of their inhumanity and ruthlessness, the Scorpion Race is also one of the most hated races of some of the Orc race's hostile races, and it is a race that is talked about within the Orc race.

Skars Blacktail is a genius who only appeared a few years ago and was excavated by Camog from a very humble scorpion village. His quick thinking, thorough vision, and ruthlessness of his tactics shocked the self-proclaimed conspiracy expert. What's more, this guy is different from other scorpion tribes, he knows how to advance and retreat: not only to the end, but also to forgive people. Add to that the connections he inherited from his own master (only Skarth was introduced to White and his buddies by Camog, and the meaning is self-evident. If Camog hadn't died so suddenly, Skars's succession to the High Priesthood would have been almost a foregone conclusion. Unfortunately, Camog's sudden death caused Skarston, who had almost no background, to become the target of public criticism.

No matter how poisonous the trick is, no matter how easy it is, someone must be willing to use it. With no background, Skarth, with the orcs in a civil war fought with all their might, suddenly had no way to find the forces willing to protect him with his proud intelligence. The principle of the orc guardians has always been free-range, unless it is really related to the rise and fall of the entire orc race, and they directly ignore the power struggle or something.

Unlike Skas, who was almost designated as the heir of Camogne at the time, several other high priests had contacted some of the big powers within the orc clan for various reasons. In this sudden struggle for power, the priestly substitutes soon came to an agreement with the careerists who were trying to sit on the throne of power—they helped the careerists to ascend to the throne, and the careerists helped them to become high priests. This mutually beneficial strategic alliance soon left Skars alone, forming among careerists with different goals but common interests.

While Camog was still there, those so-called high priests would not dare to stumble no matter what they thought in their hearts. Because of the complete decentralization of Lologo, it can be regarded as an old embarrassment who almost completely controls the supreme power of the orc race, and does not allow any opposition to appear in his jurisdiction.

Camog hated infighting the most, so he simply didn't allow the high priest's back-to-back to spend their minds on infighting. According to him, if you can pit one more human being, you don't need to spend your energy on your own compatriots. Kamoge's other 2 apprentices are not inferior to Skars in terms of ability, but since Camog found out that these 2 little guys began to fight openly and secretly in order to climb to their positions in the future, they quietly colluded with some orc nobles and directly crossed them out of the list of backfills in their hearts. The same treatment was given to the 2 guys who became the back-up of the orc high priest through other means.

Even if he is said to have a mind of the highest level of the race, as long as he is not a true wise man, he will often ignore his own reasons when faced with his own failures. From Camog's actions, it was evident that the high priests who had an old attitude did not choose to look for mistakes in their own actions, but secretly hated Camog in their hearts for "favoring" Skas. When Camog died, of course, this hatred was perfectly transferred to Skas.

Seeing the empire completely mired in civil war, seeing the former classmates who were completely captivated by power, seeing the orc empire think tank that protected themselves, and then seeing the orc guardians who have always been indifferent to this phenomenon, Skars, who is currently only in his early 30s, suddenly felt a sense of exhaustion in his heart.

He remembered very clearly that four months ago, due to his master's poisonous scheme, the entire Orc Empire almost broke the history of the Orc Empire for nearly 400 years, and successfully laid down the screen-level fortress of the human race, bringing deep despair to the human race. In less than 3 months after his master's death, the orcs ignored the large number of elite legions gathered in the two human barriers because of the struggle for power, and began to completely tear their faces and start a civil war. This completely discouraged Skas, who wanted to continue the war against humanity and carry on Camog's legacy.

Ignoring the retention of the Orc Empire's think tank, he directly packed up his things and left the war royal capital. He and his brothers had often heard about the adventures of his master when he was young, which had become legends on the continent of Ella, and when he was young and had a very different personality from most of the scorpions, Skars had longed for this kind of bloody adventure life, and after inheriting his master's legacy and defeating the pride of mankind was shattered, Skars planned to travel through the vast world of Fett as an adventurer. This will not only fulfill his childhood dreams, but also allow him to verify what he has learned from books.

It's a pity that the careerists who have been completely swallowed up by power ** and reason will not let a guy like Skars, whose destructive power is comparable to a natural disaster, disappear from their eyes at such a time. In their already extremely selfish hearts, once their Skars disappear, they are willing to become the help of their enemies! No matter how much they had isolated Skars for the sake of face, their fear of the young scorpion had never diminished.

It is not known who did it first, but not long after Skarth left the War King, he was killed by a premeditated assassination. When Carmon St. Stormfox, who had received the news of Skars's attack from a hind-aware think tank, flew to the scene of the incident with a face full of anger, all that caught his eyes was a cloud of blood, and there was no sign of Skars and the Assassins.

Camun St. Windfox had heard more than once about Skarth the Scorpion from Camog, and had read all kinds of information about Skars more than once. So he knew what this scorpion man was capable of. When Camog died suddenly, due to the long-standing tradition of the orcs, he did not come forward as a guardian to support Skas. But he felt very clearly in his heart that in this chaotic period, it was the best choice for this scorpion man, who was good at poison and scheming, but knew how to grasp the balance, to be the high priest of the orc race.

In addition to the tradition, there was a bit of selfishness in Camun St. Windfox's absence at the time - he wanted to see how capable the successor Camog had fancied. But what made him very disappointed was that this young scorpion man actually gave up the idea of competing for the high priest directly, and instead packed up his things and planned to leave after applying for an adventurer's status in the adventurer's union!

Filled with disappointment, Carmon St. Windfox did not continue to pay attention to Skas's news, but prepared to find another Guardian to have a good drink. The guardian of the orc clan said that it would be a good choice for Skars to come back from his travels and then bring this kid to the Empire's think tank himself. It's just that this Saint-level powerhouse didn't think that those damned careerists would be so mad that they would dare to directly attack and plan to kill a wise man of this level in his own country!

After returning to the war royal capital, Camon St. Wind Fox, who was furious because of the unknown whereabouts of Skas, directly called all the careerists who wanted to seize the position of the great chief and the four high priests to the high-level conference room of the royal capital, and pointed his finger at them for nearly half a day. At this time, Camon St. Windfox's mind had already drawn a big cross in the hearts of some of the bastards who had been completely devoured by ambition, including the four high priests, and it was only then that he finally understood why Camog had chosen Skas, a guy who didn't have much idea about power.

It's a pity that no matter how hard he scolds, Skas's disappearance is already a confirmed fact. No matter how angry this Saint-Rank powerhouse is, there is no way to get the missing Skars back. So in the end, through a cold snort, he gave a ruthless blow to all the guys present, and after giving these guys with burnt heads, this Wind Fox Clan's Saint-level powerhouse directly chose to leave. As the saying goes, out of sight is out of mind, he really doesn't want to stay with these bastards who have forgotten what the big picture is.

Camon St. Wind Fox had no idea that not long after he left, those careerists in this place that was very important to the Orc Empire were completely in a mess. The careerists, who were already red-eyed because of the competition for the position of the big chief, didn't need to provoke or anything at all, and directly began to spray and even fight.

"You guys suggested sniping Skars first! Why do I have to get hurt? You kid don't want to live anymore, do you? ”

"Hey, don't take your hat down? When did I propose? And even if it's me who proposes it, how many of you dare to say that you didn't even think about killing him? ”

"Get out! That's because of you guys, I sent out the Assassins. In the end, not to mention that I didn't see the body of that bastard scorpion, I was actually scolded by His Excellency Wind Fox! ”

"Hey, let me interject, it's because your waste is so useless that it's caused this embarrassing situation!"

"Hehe, you mean that those missing strings in your family are up to the task?"

"TMD is all crooked, what are you not convinced, we will talk about it! Anyone who wants to sit there, can they not play these tricks of planting and blaming the blame? ”

"Ha, who was running away bare-bottomed at that time?"

"You're looking for death!"

After a simple daily provocation and local fighting, the orc civil war has risen to the next level, almost reaching the limit of the Guardians' patience. By now, these careerists have been completely eroded by power and hatred, and they no longer have the slightest idea of thinking about the entire orc empire.

With the Orcs completely mired in civil war, Camog's carefully prepared plan to take at least one human screen-level fortress completely failed. In the days that followed, the orcs simply did not find a chance to take down the two major barriers that had been strengthened to infinitely exaggerated again.

The Orcs are in a full-scale civil war, and so far, the first half of Drew's "Enemy Enemy" plan can be considered a success or a failure.
