The wildebeest is the most common animal in the Gaia world, and it is also the most chosen riding beast in this world, whether it is humans, orcs, and even elves, and the daily life of all races has been inseparable from it. On this continent, it has been integrated into the lives of all tribes for so long that the history of each tribe is full of legends describing how tenacious it was, how tame, how empathetic, and how good it was to run.

It is recognized as the best friend of all intelligent beings on this continent.

All creatures must have different types, and wildebeest raised in different environments are also very different in appearance.

Compared with the wildebeest domesticated by humans on the southern continent, the wildebeest growing in the orc wasteland has a larger skeleton, a rougher shape, more resistant to cold and drought, and a little more fattening.

In Zhang Quan's eyes, this wildebeest is more different from the horse species on the earth, although it probably belongs to the same species, but the difference in appearance is greater.

The reason why the wildebeest is called a wildebeest is that there is a bulge on the top of its head, which is very hard, because of the different breeds of horses, some are shorter, probably like a sarcoma, but some are very long, bulging on the long horse's head, and the top is very sharp, making the wildebeest look like the shape of the legendary unicorn on the earth.

However, it is clearly incapable of spells, and it is definitely not some kind of higher, purer intelligent creature, it is just an ordinary native creature.

The wildebeest on the wasteland is taller than the horses on the earth, the body length is generally more than two meters or three meters, the limbs are thick and straight, the neck is strong, according to the method of measuring horses on the earth, the shoulder height of this wildebeest is also more than two meters, higher than the fattest shire horse on the earth, and the weight can easily reach more than a ton.

But it is so large, but it is not like the earth's super-heavy horse, the heavy step is not able to run, the wildebeest in the wasteland is the natural darling of this land, running fast as lightning, even if it is like a medium-speed long-distance run, it is common to travel thousands of miles a day, in this wasteland, is the most important breed of beasts for the orcs.

Among the orcs of the wasteland, the centaurs are the masters of shepherding wildebeest herds in the wasteland.

……

On the wasteland, it is still snowy, because the weather is cold, the snow that falls on the ground at this time will not melt all year round, and it is frozen with a thick layer, just like the earth is covered with armor, walking on the snow, the light from the sun is reflected by the snow all over the field, and it is dazzling. Obviously, if it weren't for the cold, this wasn't the right season to go outside.

But on the snowy field, at this moment, there was a strong wildebeest, with a sturdy rubber saddle fixed to his shoulder, and the animal was obviously very dissatisfied with the superfluous things that had been added to his body for no reason, and snorted one after another, and spewed out a few feet of white air, and his four hooves were making all kinds of small commotions impatiently.

But this instinctive commotion was ruthlessly crushed by three or four orcs with big shoulders and round waists, and the orcs held down the shoulders of the wildebeest to prevent it from shaking, and next to the horse's head there were shepherds who usually grazed the wildebeest, and a centaur whispered next to its ear, comforting the beast.

This is already the most docile wildebeest that can be found in the base mountain tribe, and it is still a young mare, even so, it takes many people to protect its wings next to it, and Zhang Quan dares to make a move to challenge it - he wants to learn to ride a horse.

Horseback riding is a sport that almost all orc races in the wasteland will do, and the wilderness is so vast that it is difficult for people who have not been to this place to imagine it, taking the northwest corner of the wasteland where Zhang Quan is located as an example, in fact, there is less than one orc per square kilometer of land on average.

It is difficult to survive in such a vast and sparsely populated land, and it is difficult to gain a foothold without means of transportation, and the wasteland is rich in all kinds of animals, many of which have been trained by these natives to be companions day and night, which is what the people of this continent call riding beasts.

For the orcs, there is a big difference between riding a beast and livestock, the animal is offered for the final slaughter, while the riding animal is the life and death companion of the orcs. In many cases, riding beasts is more important for orcs and even family members, especially for those nobles of the steppe, warriors of strong races.

After staying here for a long time, Zhang Quan slowly learned the trick of how to get along with the orcs, and how to make better use of the power he has now, but change the world, the only way is to make changes to the surrounding environment, so the first thing you have to do is to try to integrate into them.

Learning to ride a horse and having his own riding beast is the first step for Zhang Quan to try to integrate into their lives.

Of course, in this process, Zhang Quan will inevitably learn to be very careful, extremely careful, no way, although this horseback riding sport looks very tall, but it is also a very dangerous thing, if you accidentally fall from it, you will be seriously injured or even sudden death, it is possible. If this kind of thing happened to Zhang Quan, wouldn't it be that he regretted his death before his ambition was rewarded?

But even if it was so dangerous, he was extremely worried in his own heart, but he had to learn to ride a horse, as a master of a tribe in the wasteland, he couldn't ride a horse? How can he fit into the world and mingle with his men.

Grabbing the upper part of the saddle with both hands and stepping on the stirrups with his toes, Zhang Quan gathered his strength, and then worked hard to climb onto the horse's back. At this time, the wildebeest was tempered by Zhang Quan's very uncomfortable horseback action, and it tossed a few times, but it turned invisible under the suppression of several orc strong men.

Zhang Quan hugged the horse's neck very unimpressively on the wildebeest, and it took a long time to let go of his heart and signal his subordinates to let go of the poor wildebeest and let it regain its freedom.

As soon as the orcs let go, the wildebeest slipped out, making Zhang Quan's hands and feet quickly clench, and his heart was almost jumping out of his throat with the fluttering and fluttering. At the moment, he didn't feel the feeling of the clouds and fog described by the other riders, but he felt his limbs stiffen and tighten.

Gradually, the little mare began to return to its usual inherent rhythm of movement, and the Zhang Quan, who she hated, grabbed it too tightly, so that it couldn't let go of its mood and galloped, so it could only jog with small steps.

But this kind of jogging, Zhang Quan liked it very much, he gradually finally found his rhythm from the movement on this ** back, and began to gradually relax, knowing that at this time, he dared to raise his head forward, looking around the left and right, the little mare was surrounded by more than a dozen strong centaurs, all of them were cautious, nervously looking at him and the horse under his crotch, ready to support at any time.

This made him feel more relaxed, in this case, even if the little mare under him really began to be disobedient, then these loyal centaur guards around him could also easily hold it, these centaurs and wildebeest looked like distant relatives, and their ability to pick up and run was definitely not inferior to these creatures in nature.

All right! In fact, for this group of centaurs, Zhang Quan's learning to ride a horse is also a major event in the tribe, which is a great affirmation of their ability to shepherd wildebeests.

Zhang Quan, who was riding on a wildebeest, was in a better mood, heh, it turned out that learning to ride a horse was not so difficult! As if feeling the mood of the rider on his body, the little mare under the crotch gradually began to have fun, began to run on the snowfield, embraced nature, and conquered the boundless wilderness of thousands of miles - Zhang Quan, who was riding on horseback, gave birth to an awareness from the bottom of his heart, it turned out that this was the feeling of galloping.
