Chapter 102: Solving the Mystery
The leader of the wolf cavalry is indeed a powerful great warrior, and the wolf under his crotch is also extraordinary, and with the help of the wolf, he faced the siege of the two great warriors, Ushtu and Messiah, and even the tribe was not inferior at all.
Although the leader of the wolf cavalry was entangled by Ushtu and Messiah, he had always kept an eye on the battle of his subordinates, and naturally noticed Bai Qi's powerful throwing skills.
Seeing Bai Qi holding the throwing gun and charging towards him, the leader of the wolf riders immediately raised his vigilance, but what he didn't notice was that at the same time as Bai Qi launched the charge, Barrian, who had retracted into the grass after releasing the spider web technique, poked his head out slightly and raised his staff.
Bai Qi swooped down the steep hill of fifty degrees, and his speed reached its maximum in an instant.
Blood Tide! Stop! Steel core flow force method! Powerful toss! All the movements were done in one go, a beautiful and powerful projectile, and the "Moridan's ribs" came to the chest of the leader of the wolf riders in the blink of an eye.
As if to match Bai Qi's throwing spear, Ushtu and Messiah stepped up their attacks at the same time.
The leader of the wolf cavalry snorted coldly, and the giant axe in his right hand turned, not only did he open the heavy axe of Ushtu, but also with the power of the slash, the axe handle turned, and he just picked up the throwing spear that came from the white volley, showing superb martial arts.
But what the leader of the wolf riders didn't expect was that while his attention was drawn to Bai Qi, Barian cowered in the grass and whispered a spell, and an arcane missile came to his chest almost at the same time as Bai Qi's javelin.
Although he fired Bai Qi's throwing spear, he couldn't stop the arcane missile that flew ten times faster than the physical javelin.
The Arcane Missile exploded in front of the Wolf Rider Leader's chest, shattering not only the leather armor on his chest, but also the flesh and blood on his chest.
But this is not their real killer move.
The Arcane Missile exploded in the chest. Shredding skin and flesh, even the leader of the wolf riders is as resolute as iron. But his mind was taken away in an instant, at this moment. A dark red light flashed three or four meters behind the leader of the wolf riders, and a figure suddenly appeared.
As soon as the figure appeared, it had already turned into an afterimage and pounced on the back of the leader of the wolf riders.
The figure was as swift as lightning and as light as a feather, and leaped onto the wolf's buttocks, and a pair of bayonets in his hands stabbed at the waistcoat of the leader of the wolf riders like lightning.
As soon as the leader of the wolf riders recovered from the violent explosion in his chest, he felt a cone of pain in his vest, and his internal organs were as if they were suddenly on fire, producing an incomparably burning pain, and he couldn't help but let out a terrible scream. Subconsciously swung his axe and slashed behind him.
At this time, the figure behind him had already jumped off the wolf's back and quickly retreated backwards.
This figure is none other than Adrian.
The strength of Ustu and Messiah is only a thin line behind the leader of the wolf riders, so how can they not seize such a good opportunity.
At the moment when the leader of the wolf riders was snatched from his mind by the Corrupted Blade, Messiah wrapped his arms around the black wolf, and Ustu slashed at the back of the head with an axe.
Bai Qi hurriedly shouted, "Catch it alive!" ”
Hearing this, Ustu's axe blade spun and slammed it on the back of the head of the wolf rider leader.
Listen to the heavy blow. Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a sore tooth, watching the burly body of the leader of the wolf rider carry down from the wolf's body, Bai Qi couldn't help but wonder if he was stoned to death by Ushtu's axe.
Lost the protection of the wolf rider leader. The black wolf was naturally no match for Ushktu and the Messiah, and was quickly killed by the two.
The Messiah took out a rope twisted from the tendons of the beast to bind the unconscious leader of the wolf cavalry, and Ushtu turned and rushed towards the melee of the wolf cavalry and the chosen warriors.
It's just a dozen seconds. Three of the seven wolf cavalry had already been dragged off the wolf's back and slashed with their knives. The wolf that lost its owner was also quickly killed. The Chosen Warriors also paid a heavy price, and at least seven or eight people were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness.
With Ushtu and Baiqi joining the warband. The remaining four wolf cavalry, who were fighting to the death, were also quickly strangled.
Although Bai Qi took out the healing scrolls and healing potions at any cost, three of the Chosen Warriors who were too injured died, and two were left disabled because of their injuries.
Of the four followers of Ustu, one was killed and one was maimed, and the other two mountain barbarians were all seriously wounded.
The honest mountain barbarians were indeed the best warriors, and in the melee just now, they rushed to the forefront from beginning to end.
The Chosen Warrior from the city of Leoni was also very brave, and the other three warriors, who died and were disabled, were all Leonis.
Bai Qi immediately promised to triple the compensation for the mountain barbarians who died and were disabled in battle, and to add an additional 1,000 acres of land and 500 gold coins to the Chosen Warriors of Leoni City.
After pacifying the warriors, Bai Qi ordered the slain orcs and wolves to be dragged back to the woods on the northern slope for burial.
After hastily clearing the battlefield and returning to the makeshift camp in the woods, Bai Qi immediately interrogated the captured leader of the wolf riders.
The three of them tossed for most of the day, but there was nothing they could do about this stubborn stone-like orc.
Half a day of interrogation, not only did not pry open the mouth of the wolf rider leader, but made the three of Bai Qi exhausted, whether it was the professional torture learned from the space, or the spiritual magic of Barian, they could not shake this tenacious orc.
According to Barrian, the spirit of this wolf rider commander is not strong, not even as good as the Chosen Warrior of ordinary humans, but his willpower is as tenacious as steel, and his spiritual magic cannot shake it at all.
Fortunately, Bai Qi used the method of clichés to get some useful information from the other party's mouth, and did not let this attack be fruitless.
The intelligence of this wolf rider leader was obviously much higher than that of ordinary orcs, and he quickly discovered Bai Qi's intentions, and from then on, no matter how hard Bai Qi tried, he just didn't say a word.
Reluctantly ended the interrogation, and the three of Bai Qi were frustrated and excited.
Based on the information from the mouth of this wolf rider leader and the information from the mouths of the orc herdsmen on the way forward, Bai Qi probably learned some information about the internal situation of the orc khanate.
The Khan of the Garkhanate of this generation had two very powerful and wise sons.
For Khan, a strong and wise son was what he longed for, but there were too many wise and powerful sons. Not necessarily a blessing, especially when the two sons are evenly matched. And when they are in opposition.
In the past two years, the khan has grown older. The rivalry between the two sons has become more and more intense, and it has even caused turmoil within the tribal alliance.
Recently, the khan seems to have made up his mind to support his young son as the heir to the throne.
Word came from the king's tent that the khan seemed intent on sending the eldest prince to open up the northern steppes.
This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the eldest prince, sending the losing side of the throne competition to open up the northern steppes, which had always been the way the Galkhanate resolved its internal strife.
This news undoubtedly indicates the inclination of the Khan.
Although the eldest prince had great strength and many supporters in the tribal alliance, he did not dare to go against his father's will, because his younger brother was not only inferior to him in strength. Moreover, as a shaman, the little prince has more supporters than the eldest prince, and their father, this generation of khans, is not incompetent.
Once the khan made up his mind, the eldest prince simply did not have the strength to disobey his father's will.
However, the ambitious eldest prince did not seem to be reconciled, so he gave up and went to the bitter cold northern grasslands to struggle for survival.
The Great Prince seems to have found a solution. He asked the Khan to give him command of the Northern Orc Alliance, which was attacking the human defense line in the Arare River Valley, and he would personally lead them to attack the human defense line, if defeated. He is willing to die in battle before the human pass, and if he wins, he will go north with glory and wealth.
Without hesitation, the Khan agreed to the Grand Prince's request. The Northern Coalition Army has nearly 20,000 orc warriors and 200 wolf riders. The strength is not weak, but the eldest prince has to rely on these forces to compete with the khanate. But it was far from enough, the eldest prince's request was undoubtedly a sign of his attitude of withdrawing from the competition, and it was impossible for the khan not to satisfy him even this wish.
Bai Qi deduced from the words that came out of the captive's mouth that the eldest prince was neither willing to sit still, nor willing to go to the bitter cold northern grasslands to resign himself to fate, he seemed to intend to break through the human defense line and take root in the human territory.
As the son of Gar Khan, the most powerful warrior of the younger generation, the Great Prince has many powerful followers, the population of his direct tribe is only 5,000, and the elite warriors are only 2,000, which is only a relatively powerful tribe in the tribal alliance, but he has a wolf cavalry of one hundred and fifty people, these powerful warriors are young and strong people from various tribes, and they follow him because of the prestige of the Great Prince.
However, once the eldest prince really gave up his throne and led his troops north, most of these followers would abandon him.
Once he loses his followers, the eldest prince will really never turn over.
Therefore, the method that the eldest prince came up with to attack the defense line of the Arare Valley is a good move for the time being.
In this way, Xiang Khan and his younger brother showed that he would give up the competition, and he would be able to gain support from the Khan and the Khanate, and the wealth of the human territory would be able to maintain the cohesion of his followers, and if he could successfully occupy the human territory, the narrow and narrow territory of the north of the Suluo River would be enough to support 100,000 orcs, enough for him to stand in the court.
After obtaining these news, all the mysteries in Bai Qi's heart were finally solved.
The main obstacle to completing the challenge task "Dawn" is not the southern troll tribe, the real threat comes from within the orcs, once the army of more than 100 wolf cavalry under the command of the eldest prince and the nearly 10,000 orcs in front of the defense line of the Arare River Valley are combined, it will not be the result of one plus one, there are no soldiers, the strong are just horses, but once the strong man has wings, to defeat him, he will pay ten times the price.
Moreover, the northern tribes are not monolithic, the miscellaneous armies from different tribes are basically fighting on their own, once the army of nearly 10,000 orcs is integrated by the great prince, the strength will also be greatly improved.
Moreover, the purpose of the Great Prince's attack on the human territory is completely different from that of the Northern Tribes, who attack the Human Territory only to plunder and survive, while the Great Prince is to obtain land.
Once the eldest prince breaks through the valley of the Arare River, the human race will surely retreat into the city as before, fighting on their own, which will definitely give the eldest prince a chance to gain a foothold. And once the eldest prince breaks through any human city-state, the huge wealth will inevitably attract more orcs, and the essence of human civilization, on the north bank of the Saluo River, will be plunged into war and destruction.
