When hundreds of oxen carrying large quantities of salt arrived at the settlement under the leadership of Elder Cecil, the Great Shaman of Brendan also left the Great Frostwolf Tribe, and even though the cold wind was howling, he rushed back to the Valley of Miracles under the protection of the Guardian Orcs.

The Baroque forces have gradually infiltrated and controlled the entire Frostwolf tribe, not only in shamanic disputes between them, but also in military disputes. As the people of the Blue Wolf tribe began to converge here in the large tribal settlements, they also brought with them the salt that was indispensable to the life of the orcs, and various seasonings collected from the forest. There are even a large number of cooking utensils such as iron pots, pottery, etc., which are very valuable to orcs. In the past, these things were bought from human smugglers at a high price, and they were expensive to death. Now the brothers of the Blue Wolf tribe have generously brought hundreds of iron pots, so that everyone can drink delicious broth instead of always eating barbecue.

The existence of the gray dwarves was still a secret, and after consulting with Baroque, Ortu and others, the Saadin patriarch decided to continue to keep it as secret as possible. After the people of the Blue Wolf tribe have come to the large tribal settlement, the small rock city will not be abandoned, but will be garrisoned by the most elite soldiers. At the same time, as the Duchy of Hanseas' control gradually became firm, the Baroque had already considered starting to trade goods covertly. Use the skins and tundra specialties of the Frostwolf tribe in exchange for grain, cloth, and ale from the Duchy of Hansea...... and other living materials that the orcs do not produce. This matter will be on the agenda soon.

Although Susan and Celine left, they taught many orcs to learn the lingua franca of the continent during that time. In particular, those orc children and female orcs have become proficient in writing. Ussad and Tahir brothers. Now one is thirteen years old and the other is seventeen years old, and he is no longer as weak as he was when he was saved by the Baroque, but as strong as a calf. It's two handsome orc guys.

Baroque was always very busy, but whenever he had time, he would always teach the two little ones himself. Usad was an excellent warrior, he even already had the strength of a mid-level beast battle qi warrior, and Baroque promised him that when he became a high-level beast battle qi warrior, he would give him a phantom beast and let him have his own beast armor. For this. Ursard tempered himself hard, never relaxing for a moment.

Tahir was only seven years old, but the little one was very smart. Baroque was surprised and surprised, as he perceived Tahir's potential to become a shaman. Baroque is ready to guide him personally, using his witch doctor powers to guide him and make him the second shamanic witch doctor. The little one bears the great trust of the Baroque to revive the sacred profession of shamanic witch doctor in the future. I'm also working hard.

The two little orcs are saved by the Baroque when they are dying on the verge of death. They are grateful and adore the Baroque. In his mind, Baroque is a god, and he is willing to give everything for it. No one would have thought that in the future, the orc brothers would be the first believers in the Baroque who had already taken a step out of detachment.

Now that all the little orcs of the entire tribe were called up, the orcs from the blue wolf tribe taught them to learn, and Ussad and Tahir inherited Susan and Celine's place, albeit at a young age. But he is the most learned. Among the orcs, wise men are always revered. So it was no surprise that they became the leaders of all the orcs. The Baroque indirectly influenced the next generation through Ussad and Tahir, who would be the staunchest followers of the future.

Everything is starting to fall into place, the tribe is growing stronger, and the pressure from all sides, which insisted on merging the Frostwolf tribe with Ortu, Vittorio and Samaso, and Baroque, is gone. Because it turns out that they are right, the scattered orc tribes are just a plate of scattered sand, and only when they are united and cohesive can they exert great power.

The date for Baroque and Hilda's wedding had already been set! Grand Patriarch Ortu seemed to be in a hurry more than the two of them, and even hoped that they would be married in this harsh winter, but Baroque politely refused to postpone it until next spring. He's not idle this winter!

A second blizzard fell, and the land became a silvery white world, and the orcs were trapped in the settlement. Fortunately, everything was well prepared and there were no catastrophic consequences. And it was in this bad weather that Baroque and Zainzu quietly left the tribe, followed by the old Thunderhawk patriarch Mondello!

The Frost Wolf and the Wolf Mount are not afraid of the cold, and they are able to run freely through the thick snow. The Baroque and Zainzu followed the contours of the distant mountains and a few days later entered the Kundu Maya Mountains.

Zainzu had come to explore the road some time ago, and had memorized the way into a certain hidden valley, plus some memories and guidance from the old Thunder Eagle Mondello, the vast snow was not an obstacle, and they soon appeared in a narrow passage between the two peaks. Walk through this mile-long narrow road into a vast valley covered in cedar and silver fir. It's off the beaten track, especially in winter, and there is hardly any sign of life in sight.

But this is only the appearance, for the shamanic sacrifices of the Friends of Nature, through the thick layer of snow, everywhere is full of life, and countless creatures lurk or prying in the shadows.

The old thunder eagle Mondello soared into the sky and circled over the valley, unleashing a deep blue thunderbolt that flickered in the sky and made a low sound. This is the sign of the Odin Thunder Eagle Phantom Beast, if the old guy is still alive, he will know that the Odin Thunder Eagle is coming, and he will definitely appear.

There were sounds around him, and there seemed to be no change in front of him, but Baroque could feel a group of powerful beings gathering here. I couldn't see their figures, as if they had melted into the ice and snow.

"Mondello, is that you? you were willing to get out of that cage in Odria, and are you finally willing to pay any price for freedom?" a deep voice sounded, not far in front of him. It was only then that Baroque saw a snow-white leopard slowly approaching.

"You brought two orcs with you, Mondelo, did the orcs help you escape from the Oderian cage? What about your people? you abandoned them, and you didn't worry about them being angered by the Adrians?" said the snow-white leopard in a human voice. It is clear that the leopard is not hostile to the orcs.

It was an ordinary leopard, snow-white as the frost wolf Rak. It's just that the fur on its body is not upside down like Rak, but very soft and smooth. The white transparent animal fur stands in the snow and ice, and it does have a stealth effect. Erni Snow Leopard -- a high-level phantom beast like Odin Thunder Eagle.

"Dancy. You're still that annoying. But I will graciously forgive you for your rudeness today, because all the bad things you have guessed have not happened. I'm fine, my people are very good, and we're free, truly free, and have nothing to do with Odria anymore. Mondello said triumphantly. Baroque suddenly discovered that the eagle's temperament was almost identical to that of Ivia, and it seemed that Ivian's ruffian was learned from his father-in-law.

"Oh, I think I need to hear your story!, but before that......," the old leopard looked warily at Baroque and Zainzu. There is also the frost giant wolf of the divine steed, and as for Zainzu's wolf mount, it is directly ignored. "Who are they, though we have no enmity with the orcs. But you shouldn't just bring outsiders into the secret hideout of our Erni snow leopards. If you are discovered by humans, you know what the consequences will be. ”

"Haha, what's the point of hiding. We, Odin Thunderhawk, are no longer hiding, and live openly under the sun. You Erni snow leopards can do the same! I have come to you with good news. The key is the ...... in front of you Lord Baroque. He is a shamanic priest with magical powers. I think if you see his magic, you'll make the same choice as I do. ”

Snow Leopard Dancy began to look at the orc in front of him, Baroque bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to meet you, the patriarch of the Erni Snow Leopard, Your Excellency Dancy." ”

The old snow leopard just bowed his head in return, and then looked at the old thunder eagle who landed on a branch: "Mondelho." We've known each other for almost a hundred years, don't beat around the bush. Tell me why you're here, and I'm curious that you dare to walk around the continent without fear of being coveted and killed by humans, but I want you to make it clear, otherwise we've been quietly hiding here for countless years, and we can continue to hide. At least...... We will not be hunted by humans. "It's all hundreds of years old, and Dancy has seen that the relationship between Mondello and that orc is not simple, and it seems that the orc is still the leader. This made Dancy wary, if the orcs came to invite them out of the mountains, then Dancy would not hesitate to refuse. Although the phantom beasts are not too powerful, the phantom crystals on their bodies are too tempting for humans, and once their whereabouts are revealed, those cruel human adventurers and mercenaries will swarm them. Even if the papal guys are attracted, the snow leopard family is on the verge of extinction.

"You know Dancy, we phantom beasts finally have the ability to protect themselves, and Baroque has given us a chance to live freely. As long as we conclude a bloodline alliance with the orcs, the Baroque can give us magical powers, even the most ordinary phantom beasts and orc warriors will have the ability to compete with human phantom warriors, do you believe it?"

Dancy Snow Leopard's silver pupils widened, and he couldn't help but show a mocking expression in a very humane manner: "Mondello, are you talking crazy? The human phantom warrior is not a hare running all over the mountain, nor is it a gopher that makes holes. With a Thunderhawk and an Orc, you want to fight against the Phantom Warrior? Okay, if you want to send magic crystals to humans, then you can go yourself, don't come to the snow leopard family and follow the bad luck. Take your orc friends with you and don't expose our habitat. ”

The old snow leopard turned to leave, and the surrounding snow and ice were clouding, and the other snow leopards in the shadows also left.

"What if I prove it to you now, Lord Dancy?" said Baroque suddenly. Looking at the old snow leopard who stopped and turned around, he continued: "If you trust Mondello, then you can trust me too. I will let you see for yourself how a phantom beast and an orc have the power to resist the human phantom armor warriors. ”

The day is precarious, and he can be arrested and killed at any time...... Thousands of years have passed, and any phantom beast has had enough of living in hiding. The old snow leopard groaned for a while, and he finally agreed: "Okay, prove it to me." If you can convince me, I will entrust you with the fate of the Erni snow leopard family, just like the eagle. ”

"Thank you, I don't think you will be disappointed!, Lord Dancy!" Baroque said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
