Chapter 244: Where Are You, My Old Friend
But the next development of events disappointed Orgrim a little. From Zujin's account of the great war between trolls and humans thousands of years ago, Orgrim can conclude that this "Emperor Xià" of the Amani Empire is nothing more than an arrogant fool.
But the strength of the trolls should not be underestimated, these tall barbarian tribes not only have the combat power of the orcs, but also master the evil poison and witchcraft.
Soon, Gul'dan learned how to transform from Zujin's wizards, and Orgrim planned to apply this transformation to their ally, the ogre.
The ogres are the orcs' greatest opponents in the world of Draenor, and these tall enemies are so powerful that even the first warrior of the orcs, Grom Hellroar, has been captured by them, and the chief of the Broken Hand Clan, Kargas Bladefist, has a deep hatred for the ogre.
While Blackhan and Gul'dan were leading the orcs, the ogres joined the union of the orc clans. But many of the chiefs of the orc clans are wary of these guys.
The hatred that has arisen from countless years of fighting each other cannot be eliminated simply by dealing with the same enemy, the Draenei.
Especially Kagas Bladefist, every time the chiefs gathered for a meeting, although they didn't say anything, Orgrim was always keenly aware that the chief of the Broken Hand Clan was always staring at the two-headed ogre magician Gugar beside Gul'dan and sneering, while stroking the blade he had reattached after his severed palm.
Although the ogres are powerful combat forces, they are too stupid, even more stupid than the orcs. Although orcs of different clans will also fight on the battlefield because of small contradictions, but the ogre ...... On the battlefield, they are simply friend or foe.
After a few battles, Orgrim decided to make some changes, and he planned to apply the methods he learned from the trolls to the ogres first.
The ogres are strong enough, and the only thing they need to change is their "pig brains". Gul'dan did Orgrim's task well, creating an ogre with two heads - just like Gugar.
Originally, the two-headed ogre was just a very small freak in the ogre group, but it is undeniable that the thing with two heads is to be smarter than one head.
At the same time, a small part of the two-headed ogres have mastered a magical power - the power to control the water elemental and the fire element. This power is different from the communication between the shaman and the elemental spirits, but is more similar to the power of a human mage. Orgrim immediately ordered that all ogres who had come to the world of Azeroth with the orc army be transformed into two-headed ogres, and that a mage army would be drawn from them to form a necessary means to deal with the magical city of Dalaran.
But Gul'dan's transformation plan ran into trouble - as he told Grom Hellroar, the Warlocks of the Shadow Council had been slaughtered too much by Orgrim, and the remaining half-tone Warlocks were no longer enough to provide enough magic.
As a result, Orgrim sent expeditionary forces on several occasions, riding on rudimentary rafts and canoes, across the oceans to snatch the magic rune stones that the High Elves had stockpiled from Quel'Thalas, an arcane kingdom of high elves, to quench their addiction.
During his last operation, Zukin traveled with the expeditionary force to Quel'Thalas. This stupid and arrogant forest troll actually tried to launch an all-out attack on Silvermoon City with a small group of forest trolls.
The outcome was obvious - Zukin became a captive of the High Elves, but he soon escaped and rejoined the orc army on the troll-tamed bat mount.
However, Zukin did not pay a price - he lost his left arm and suffered some damage to his right eye. Orgrim had lost all faith in the arrogant and stupid troll, and from then on, his attitude towards Zujin had become a little sluggish.
But today, in front of him, Zukin showed a ...... beyond Orgrim's comprehension Spells - Orgrim prefers to call them hex.
How is it possible for a severed limb to regenerate? - Orgrim rubbed his eyes in a bit of a gaffe - with his left hand, which was not holding a short-handled warhammer.
"See? Ignorant orcs. Trolls are more powerful than you think. You must understand that the entire world of Azeroth belongs to trolls, and all trolls are servants of my Zujin, and I am the true god of this world. Zukin looked at Orgrim's surprised expression and stretched his newly grown arms a little proudly.
Forest trolls are not born green, but because they have lived in the forest for so long, their bodies are covered in moss and spores, giving them such a deep green color.
The newly born arms of the rent are naturally the original brown, and there is still a trace of mucus on the new skin.
"Gods?" Something suddenly occurred to Ogrim, and he looked at Zujin with some excitement and asked, "Since your broken arm can be reborn...... So is there any way you trolls can do it...... Can the dead be brought back into this world? ”
Orgrim wanted to resurrect none other than his friend, the former chief of the Frostwolf Clan and the son of Garrard, Durotan.
Durotan and Orgrim, who have quietly become friends since they were very young, have acted contrary to the ancient and withdrawn traditions of the orcs.
But from the beginning of the race, to the later hunting together; From meeting the leader of the Draenei together, Viren, in the city of the Draenei, to destroying the friendly creatures of the blue-skinned, goat-hoofed creatures......
Orgrim thinks he's done a lot wrong, but none of them compare to when he doesn't see his old friend Durotan farewell.
After traveling thousands of miles from his retreat to the Dark Gate to inform Orgrim about the deal between Gul'dan and the demon, Orgrim did not personally escort Durotan away.
Gul'dan never shy away from saying that he had sent people to kill the Durotan family, including his wife Drakar and his young son. Orgrim was furious, but Gul'dan was of great interest to the orc army...... Greatly, for the sake of victory in the war, Orgrim could only temporarily leave the life of this evil scum.
Despite vowing to avenge Durontan by breaking Gul'dan to pieces in due course, Orgrim preferred that his old friend would return to him, and that the two of them would wrestle with each other as they had done before, and enjoy bloody porridge and split-hoof beef ribs together.
In the world of Draenor, when an orc dies, the soul returns to the Holy Mountain; However, before coming to the world of Azeroth, the Holy Mountain had already been abandoned by order of Gul'dan.
Since then, no one has ever thought about where the souls of the dead orcs will go, and Orgrim sometimes remembers but does not get an answer.
What's more, Durotan died in Azeroth, an otherworldly world for orcs, and his soul ...... Where will it go?
