Chapter 1221: Traitor
"Hometown..."
Zoro's pupils dilated instantly when he heard this word, he had actually guessed about it for a long time, but when he heard the other party say so frankly, he still clenched his fists.
After a long time, he asked, "Could it be that more orcs will appear?"
"Yes - you will control tens of thousands of your kindred, they are even stronger and invincible, and with their help, it will be easy to overthrow the rule of those foolish humans..."
The old orc's face was furrowed, in front of Zoro, he was more than a head shorter, his hair was grayish, his voice was not impassioned, but it was full of demagogy, even if Sauron was determined, it was still difficult to suppress the desire to conquer at this time.
Of course, he knew that the shortcoming of the orcs now was the "population", if there were more than 100,000 orcs, he didn't have to choose to hibernate at all, and now he was afraid that he had bulldozed four or five countries.
"You just need to break down those seals... You can start your path of conquest and bring all your enemies to a halt. ”
The voice echoed in Zoro's ears, and he was stunned for a while, but suddenly asked, "So—only need me to go..."
"As long as you break those seals. ”
The old orc stared at Sauron, "Now, the sooner the better..."
Zoro was about to nod in agreement, but he suddenly reached out and rubbed his eyebrows, his expression hesitated, and then said, "I understand." ”
The old orc in front of him squinted his eyes and looked at him, because his pupils were full of purple light, Zoro didn't understand what he meant for a while, and before he could continue to say anything, the dream suddenly dissipated - taking a deep breath, the orc chief who opened his eyes saw the ceiling in front of him that had been illuminated by the sun.
He sat up, reached out and touched his forehead, looked at the sweat that was wiped off his palm, clenched his fists hard, and exhaled.
"Tasker, go tell all the Overseers, come over after breakfast, I have something to say. ”
"Yes, Chief!"
Heavy footsteps departed, but Sauron knew that he was about to make a difficult choice-
He's ready to reject the guy in his dreams... Command.
Although the other party spoke politely in the dream just now, he didn't easily forget the scene where he used countless scenes to stimulate and even intimidate Zoro before.
In fact, the other party was condescending from the beginning, and did not treat Sauron as an "equal" existence at all.
Perhaps in the eyes of the other party, "orcs" are only worthy of being slaves. But where is Sauron, the great chief who controls the tribe, willing to be subservient?
He knew that the other party was so soft and hard only because his mind was firm enough and his ability to rule his subordinates was strong enough, and it was estimated that except for Zoro, the other party could not find other orcs to achieve its goal.
And after a few confrontations, Zoro also affirmed one thing: even if he really did what the other party said, I am afraid that he would not be able to get the things promised by the other party... Because from beginning to end, the guy with purple eyes was only depicting the prospect and inciting desires, but he didn't say a word about the "concrete implementation" of the "reward".
At the same time, there was another point in the other party's words, which made Zoro tremble: the old orc said that there would be "stronger" orcs who would appear and become his subordinates.
Zoro is not stupid, he can sit in this position because he is better than everyone else, not just because he can use his brain... In the orc society, he has a simple brain, and he dies to become a "witch doctor" or "shaman", and at most he holds the power of the middle part, and becomes a "deputy marshal" like Zoro's teacher Sarota.
And only by taking both force and brains at the same time can you defeat those who try to challenge and ascend to the position of "chief".
In the same way, if the truth is as far as the other party is concerned, all the orcs who come are strong, then how sure can they continue to control the overall situation? Not to mention that their position is difficult to guarantee, if the number of the other party exceeds 10,000, or even reaches 100,000, who will listen to whom at that time?
Thinking about it a little, Zoro knew that the other party's promise was not realistic at all... It can even be said that the other party didn't even bother to "coax" himself...
The so-called "big pie" is illogical from beginning to end, and if you stupidly do what the other party says, it is digging your own grave.
In the past few months, he has been constantly testing and detouring, in the final analysis, just to find out what this mysterious power has to do with the orcs, and what he wants his clan to do—now it seems that only by staying away from this magic circle full of seals can the few remaining clansmen find it possible to find a "way out".
Most importantly, Sauron knew very well which was more important, "conquest" or "freedom" - getting lost in the quest for power could only end up in the slavery of the entire tribe.
He quickly put on his clothes and leather soft armor, and at the same time ordered: "Now let all the people in the inner city withdraw, and not one will be left." ”
Sauron intends to destroy the inner city once and for all, to bury that circle completely... He had observed the material of the circle, and the edge position was still as smashable as a stone, but the central core area was made of unknown metal, and he couldn't leave a trace of it by cutting it with an axe, so it was no wonder that the high-level mage didn't choose to destroy it, but chose to seal it, because this thing seemed to be indestructible at all.
But just as he walked to the dining room, about to have breakfast, there was a sudden noise of shouting outside the house.
Zoro stood up vigilantly: he lived in the outer city, just to prevent any sudden changes in the inner city circle from affecting him. Listening to it now, it seems to be coming from the walls of the inner city!
Without waiting for someone from outside the door to report, Sauron grabbed the chain hammer and quickly rushed outside the house, just in time to see an orc guard being blown away from the top of the inner city wall and falling into the moat!
"Poof!"
The water splashed high, Zoro raised his eyes, and found that the other orcs on the inner city wall had already noticed the same, and they all rushed out, ready to block the "invader", and with a slight turn of his gaze, Sauron's expression suddenly became difficult to see: the so-called "invader" was not the human he imagined, it was Nadark, his henchman who originally ordered to guard the inner city!
"What are you doing?!"
He opened his mouth with a roar, but the rampaging figure in the inner city did not mean to stop at all, all the orcs who stepped forward to stop were not one enemy, Nadark, who was wearing armor and had a strong body, roared and slashed the orcs who tried to sneak attack behind him with his axe, and then jumped towards the inner city and disappeared from Sauron's field of vision.
"Damn..."
Zoro immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately shouted, "Everyone, take weapons and come with me!"
The surrounding orcs have not been dissipated by the comfortable days of battle, even when patrolling and standing guard, they are wearing armor and weapons, under the call of the great chief, dozens of guards around him immediately followed him towards the inner city gate without saying a word.
