Chapter 166, a new chapter in history, just quietly descended
In this world, it's not just lords or other big names who are qualified to post tasks. In fact, civilians often post quests, and many of them have higher rewards than the liege's post.
The Raiders looked at the problem, and in the end they came to the conclusion that anyone could publish a task as long as it was logically true. As for the rewards for quests, at least in terms of experience points, it is entirely based on difficulty and social impact, and has nothing to do with the publisher.
Therefore, when Panda went through the villages that he was originally responsible for protecting and explained the previous situation to several village chiefs one by one, he successfully got a task similar to that of Xiwa Village.
The rewards for each of these missions are probably much less than the previous "Wipe Out the Undead", but when they are combined, it is estimated that they are not much worse.
It didn't matter if it was almost, it was originally what he was going to do......
After dealing with this little matter, the panda continued to squat in Xiwa Village with peace of mind, still destroying the undead while preaching to the villagers.
Unfortunately, his eloquence is really not very good, and even if he improves his "persuasion" skills with experience points, the missionary effect is very mediocre. From the late spring and early summer to the late summer and early autumn, he was not able to develop even a single believer.
On the first of September, the panda took the time to return to the castle, applauded for a while, drank a glass of wine, and hurried back at the celebration of the thirteenth anniversary of the crossing.
Hacking down a goblin zombie who dared to jump out while he wasn't there (God knows why goblins turned into zombies), the panda received a private message before he could catch his breath.
[Valkyrie of the Battlefield (Nicholas Ivyin): Panda, have you been free lately?]
[Panda: I've been guarding several villages from being attacked by the undead. Basically, it can be said that there is no time. γ
[Valkyrie of the Battlefield: What a pity! I wanted to ask you for help, but now I have to forget it.] γ
[Panda: Looking for my help? You're already the big chief of the Centaur tribes, is there anything else you need me to help with?]
[Valkyrie of the Battlefield: According to the shamans' divination, the 'Great White Plague' is coming.] There can be nothing wrong with this, they repeated the divination several times, and one of the great shamans was even seriously injured as a result. γ
The panda was stunned for a moment, and his originally relaxed expression became serious.
"White disaster" is a unique meteorological term that refers to a catastrophe caused by a cold snap that causes massive snowfall on the grasslands, and the thick snow will make it impossible for livestock to graze, resulting in a lack of fodder and a large number of deaths, which in turn leads to a severe shortage of food.
The "Great White Plague" is more severe than the ordinary "White Plague", with lower temperatures, more snowfall, and worse, some warm weather between waves of cold waves. What looks good at first glance is far more terrible than being cold all the time β a slight warm-up will partially melt the snow, but the ensuing cold will cause the half-melted snow to condense into an ice crust. In this case, it is almost impossible for herbivores to eat enough food and will soon die en masse.
When too many herbivores have died, the beasts of the steppe will launch a frenzied attack on the orc herders out of hunger. The orcs themselves are often forced to attack the grasslands around the grassland, trying to seize food to make ends meet.
Therefore, every "white plague" is often accompanied by orc tribes joining forces to attack the towns and villages around the grassland. Especially in the case of the "Great White Plague", this kind of attack will be even more violent to the point of being terrifying.
Orcs usually get along well, but when they are so hungry that they want to eat people, no morality is more important than keeping their families alive. And the surrounding towns and villages will naturally not be willing to be plundered, so even if they have friendships in peacetime, they can only fight each other at this time.
For a long time, this has formed a tradition in the northern part of the Western Continent. No matter how good the relationship usually is, when the white disaster comes, everything must be put aside, everyone works hard to survive, each has its own destiny, and there is nothing to resent when it dies.
For the traversers, the "Great White Disaster" has another meaning.
In the game, it was because of the persecution of the "Great White Plague" that the steppe orcs did their best and went all the way south to help the Thracian Empire attack the Trera Kingdom. It was also in order to resist the attack of the orcs that the Kingdom of Trera and the Federation of Western Bunlyka would formally form an alliance against the alliance between Thrace and the Orcs......
Well, that's the fourth official major version of the game, "Chapter 4: Roar of the Iron Hoof".
"Has it come to the age of 'roaring hooves'?" asked the panda hurriedly, "how time flies so fast?"
"It's fourteenth year since we crossed over, do you think time flies quickly?" Avril asked rhetorically, "Come to think of it, if Richard hadn't died, he would be over forty years old by nowβin the game, he was assassinated at the age of forty-five." In other words, even in the game, it is only a few years before the Thracian kingdom of 'Chapter 5' prosperes and declines, and the war between the living and the dead is in full swing!"
"A few years...... I don't really feel like it. Panda sighed, "After all, when we first started playing the game, we only had a total of ten years......
He sighed and asked, "So, what are the orcs going to do now?"
Now the pattern of the Western Continent is completely different from that in the game, and the south, which should have been a piece of stability, is relatively stable, but Thrace is in decline. If nothing else, the orcs are likely to attack westward, biting off the bloody flesh from Thrace so that they can survive the harsh winter.
If that happens, the panda really doesn't know what to do.
Everyone is just trying to survive, there is no good or evil in such a war, only life and death. If you want to blame it, you can only blame fate for playing tricks, and you can only blame God for being unkind.
The panda is an orc, but he is also a holy warrior, and he can't help invade Thrace from the perspective of the orcs, nor can he help resist the invasion of the orcs from the perspective of Thrace.
Maybe...... He can only be a turtle with a shrunken head, and he should not see it......
Fortunately, he soon got a piece of good news.
"I am trying to convince the shamans of the various tribes that they will unite and cast a massive spell to disperse this cold wave and spread it throughout the northern part of the continent. "According to Xingzhao's calculations, if you do this, the original 'Great White Plague' will be reduced to the level of an ordinary 'White Plague'. Although it is also a harsh natural disaster, at least there is still some hope for disaster relief, so that everyone will not have to live or die. β
The panda was stunned for a moment, and his eyes lit up.
"No wonder you're looking for me...... Do you want me to come forward and convince the bears?"
"That's right! You're now a recognized hero of the Bears, and if you try to persuade them, there's a good chance you'll be able to convince the Bears. Coupled with the few clans I have already won, together we will definitely be able to make this plan a reality!"
After ending his contact with Avrilne, Panda pondered for a long time, and used a private chat to contact the bard Wang Tuhao, who wandered around the mainland all day.
"How about doing me a favor and sending me a few letters?"
"To whom?"
"Masters of the Church of the God of Suffering, I want to ask them to help me guard the area around Xiwa Village. β
β...... You're leaving?"
"I have a big thing to do, I must go to the grassland as soon as possible!" Panda said solemnly, "This matter is related to the life and death of countless people, if you don't go, you can't do it!"
