As a major race on the continent of Obifes, the reproductive ability of orcs is slightly stronger than that of humans, and unlike a few long-lived races such as elves and dwarves, it is not the defects of their own race that restricts their development, but two simple words, food.

The huge population base far exceeds the amount of food that humans can eat individually, making the amount of food required by orc territory every year an astronomical amount.

Ever since the orc tribes were driven out to the uncivilized wilderness of the northwest of the continent, this situation has deteriorated. The mineral resources on the northwest wasteland are relatively rich, but they are hard and difficult to exploit, and the nature of the land is mostly saline, the nutrients are poor, and the yield of planted crops is low.

But when the natural disaster came, the famine made the orcs hungry, and they left the tribe with their families and mouths in search of food, even the bark of grass roots and trees, like locusts passing through, and all the places where the hungry orcs passed were probably barren for the next year.

Seeing that this situation continues, the orc race will disappear from the continent one day, and the most intelligent shamans among the orcs have thought of a solution that is not a solution, that is, if there is no food, they will go to the human kingdom to rob it!

Therefore, every time there is a natural disaster and a famine in the wasteland, a large number of orcs will rush to the nearest human area to burn and loot, and then return to the tribe with a full harvest.

For thousands of years, this kind of unavoidable behavior has become a festival and custom for the orcs, and even if there is no famine, every two or three years, there will always be a few orc tribes who will take turns to send their tribesmen to the human kingdom to loot supplies.

And the human countries have become accustomed to this situation, so naturally they will not let the orcs come around. They set up fortifications on the borders of the wasteland to defend against orc attacks. Although it is impossible to take care of the outlying villages, it is still possible to maintain an important position from being captured by the orcs.

The orcs who invaded Celt this time, according to the intelligence of the military department, were at least a coalition of three small and medium-sized tribes, which is a rare situation in history. The details of the situation are not yet in Donald's hands, but the situation is grim for the kingdom, but for him, even the orcs of one or two more tribes are not afraid.

In order to deal with this war, Donald did not hesitate to take out the funds obtained during this period of time, and specially collected a large number of second- to fourth-level crystal nuclei through the two major ways of the mage club and the chambers of commerce of various sizes in Boulder City, and the fifth-level Warcraft crystal nuclei were also exchanged for a few by several intermediate mages such as Messer, plus his own previous reserves, which was enough to deal with an army of tens of thousands of people.

Knowing that Donald was going to participate in this border war, the mages led by Messer were very supportive.

Only trained mages will grow up as soon as possible, and even research mages are no exception, especially the summoner class like Donald who is good at large-scale battles.

What's more, this time it was just a small war with no more than 10,000 people, and the orcs were mainly for the purpose of looting, so they didn't worry too much about Donald. After all, when he was an apprentice, he was a genius mage, and he was able to be a freak comparable to an ordinary mage with the peak strength of black iron!

With the help of Sir Jesse, Donald set out a few days earlier than the other nobles and adventurers in the Northern County who received news of the conscription order, so there was plenty of time.

It only took half a day to lure the enemy to do it before, to familiarize himself with the newly acquired Demon Hunter's abilities after a battle, and to meet the teacher in the clubhouse, so Donald didn't rush all the way, but leisurely as if he was traveling.

He regarded this trip to the front line as a trip, it was the first time he had left the North County in such a long way, and this experience must have given him a clearer grasp of the situation in various parts of the kingdom.

Except for eating and resting, Donald would order a stop at every place of interest, and that's it, it took him a full seven days to travel so slowly from the northernmost part of the Northern County to the town of Shining Gold, where the border of the Northern County bordered the other two major regions.

When I arrived in Shanjin Town, it was already the evening of the eighth day, and the workers in the warehouse area had already returned home after work, but there were many pedestrians on the street, and most of the shops in the commercial area were still open to welcome customers.

Since time was not pressing, Donald was going to find a hotel to stay in, and once he was settled, he went outside for a walk.

As soon as he walked into town, Donald found an inn on the side of the street with a decorated façade and a sign that said that the inn was called Sunflower Hotel.

When you walk into the door of the hotel, you will find that the decoration inside is not very luxurious, but on the contrary, it is plain and warm, making people feel relaxed and comfortable at home. The waiters who are running back and forth to serve are also full of spirit and respectful attitude, obviously welcoming guests sincerely.

When Donald saw this, he fell in love with the environment.

"Open me the best suite!" "Mike, give us some of the best rooms!"

The voices of the two people talking at the same time remembered in front of the counter, the former was of course Donald, and when he heard the voice behind him, he couldn't help but turn sideways slightly, politely give up a little space, only to see another group of guests coming after him.

The one at the head was the one who spoke, but it was a priest of the goddess of agriculture wearing a white robe.

Behind the priest stood five people in gray cloaks, and just by looking at each other's appearances standing there, Donald knew that these were definitely not ordinary people. This kind of momentum is estimated to be possessed only by a battle-hardened soldier or a veteran adventurer.

The white-clothed pastor obviously knew the waiter at the front desk and had a few familiar conversations, but the waiter named Mike was very well-behaved, and apologized to the pastor: "Please wait a while, this gentleman came first, and after I receive this gentleman, I will arrange for you guests immediately!"

Then he said to Donald with a slight apology:

"Sir, your suite is upstairs, this is the key, the salute and the horses will be arranged for you by a waiter, please go with this waiter to see the room!"

Donald showed his understanding, then staggered away from the men and followed the attendant to the second floor.

The waiter arranged for Donald a typical aristocratic suite, with a cubicle for the servant's entourage in the front and a bedroom for the master to rest in the back, and the whole suite was clean and tidy, and the bathroom was also fully equipped. Although it can't be compared to the modern hotels of the previous life, in this medieval world, it is very nice to be able to have this kind of treatment when traveling.

Of course, the price of such a room is not cheap, and it costs one and a half gold soles for a night, which is much more expensive than the independent courtyard where Donald lived in the Boulder City Hotel before, and ordinary travelers and adventurers must not be able to afford such a room, and only nobles and wealthy merchants are willing to spend such extravagantly.
