Chapter 31: A Difficult Choice

"The host ......"

King Heradi entered the chamber and took off his noble robes, where his half-worm and half-human body was freely displayed in a place where no one was around.

The only servant by his side was Semorrah, but this wizard had already been a monster for a long time, and he was not surprised by the embarrassment of the king in front of him.

"You've done a great job of helping me keep the orcs under control. ”

Sitting on the throne of the king is the demon Kazmoz. The fallen Star Warhammer aside, like a product from the dark universe, radiated an infinite green light.

"I am your faithful servant. ”

Hradi replied.

Semorrah noticed that the human king was in fact completely controlled by the worms, his already rotten back was overgrown with hermit maggots, which wriggled and crawled all over every inch of the young king's flesh, and that the transformed Gerardi had lost his sense of self, and that he was almost inhuman, except for a human skin on the front.

"But why did I hear about the mutiny of your men?"

The demon roared, its voice majestic and terrifying. Almost immediately, Heradi fell to his knees.

"That's a small part, and I promise they're not going to do anything. ”

Heradi trembled and begged for mercy. Or rather, its soul is always contradictory, on the one hand, it wants to protect its people, on the other hand, it has a gritty hatred for orcs, and its endless thirst for power, which makes Hradi an extremely contradictory being, and he will take this road of no return, which is also related to his early experience.

When the orc army slaughtered the city, as the prince of Teletem, Hradi could do nothing but watch the orcs and the undead wreak havoc on the kingdom. So, for power, the young prince had a little more desire than all the others.

Under various special circumstances, when the demon Kazmoz appeared, Hradi agreed to the demon's conditions without even thinking about it, and at the cost of his own physical deformity, in exchange for endless strength, so as to defend his people and torture the orcs.

It's just that when the ancient zerg was summoned from the underground, Hradi was thinking about regretting it, it was too late, and the swarm completely controlled its body, and even controlled his mind......

"They are very few in number, but among this small group of people is a paladin. ”

Kazmoz approached Hradi, the demon's burning eyes fixed on the weak king. It was an absolute sense of oppression, a naked intimidation.

"Paladin? Leo is just a knight. ”

Hradi explained in surprise.

"He's always believed in that demigod Tyris, don't you know? Your own Knights, you don't know it yourself. ”

Kazmoz was furious. The energy surging between his eyebrows could have burned Hradi to ashes almost instantly, but he didn't do it, and this king was still useful to him.

"I always thought he was just a knight. ”

Hradi replied in horror.

"It used to be, but not anymore. ”

Kazmoz gritted his teeth. The demon knows that on this continent, the only people who can compete with him are the demigods of this world, but most of the time, they are neutral, but on the day of the fall of the border city, Tyrese fell his light on the knight, which means that the first demigod of this world has made a stand and will not ignore what is happening. Kazmoz has added an absolutely formidable opponent......

On the outskirts of Calvanas, the stronghold of the tribe.

Since the last encounter with the Zerg in Calvanas, the Horde has immediately taken two completely different positions. Some chiefs believe that the orcs should continue to attack humans, and the hatred between humans and orcs will never be extinguished. Other chieftains, however, believe that the most important thing right now is to find out where the bugs are coming from and stop them from continuing to destroy the town, since many orcs have become food for the swarm the day the swarm hits the city.

"Great Chief, we should continue to fight against the humans, how many of our compatriots they have enslaved, how many orcs have been tortured in the dark prisons, we should go and rescue them, and at the same time give the humans a hard blow. ”

Magaro of the Blackstone Clan said.

"I don't think so, you were also present on the day the swarm attacked the city, you saw the threat of giant insects, even if humans and orcs join forces, it will be difficult to defeat them, and now these unknown creatures are eating away at our world, and we don't even know where they came from, so my opinion is to deal with the danger of the swarm first. ”

The red tribal tent, in which Jabbar sat in the middle, made his position clear. But judging from the faces of the other orc chieftains around him, not all orc chieftains supported Jabbar's opinion.

After all, humans and orcs are bitter enemies, but if it weren't for Khradi's later come, I'm afraid humans and orcs would have lived in peace like this, but a year ago, this damn beast launched a war again. Now, the three races are at war at the same time, making the whole situation complicated.

"Great Chief, you are too merciful to humans, we will support you before, but now, our compatriots are still suffering in the prison of humans, fighting in that damn arena, I will not sit idly by and ignore this phenomenon, orcs can die in battle, not enslaved!"

Magralo roared, breath coming out of his nostrils that almost ignited the air.

"Calm down, Chief Blackstone. We are facing a great threat that concerns not only humanity, but also our own race. These giant insects, if they are allowed to breed, soon, the ground will be crowded with these terrifying monsters, and at that time, even if all the races are united, they will not be able to defeat them. ”

Abdul-Jabbar held back his emotions and explained again and again. Although in Abdul-Jabbar's heart, he also wants to rescue the orcs who are still in prison, but in the face of such a critical scene, he must be calm and rational.

However, not all orcs can rationally analyze the current situation, and it is indeed a dilemma to choose between the imprisoned and enslaved companions on the one hand, and the threat of a large number of giant insects on the other.

"Abdul-Jabbar, the Great Chief of the Tribe, since we disagree, then I will lead my own people out of the tribe to rescue those compatriots who are still in the dungeon, today's meeting, I don't think there is any need to go any further, I want to go south with me, torture the humans, rescue the warriors of the companions, come with me, the others, who want to study those bugs, follow our Great Chief. ”

Chief Blackstone's words were sarcastic, and Tucker almost jumped to his feet to beat up the little chieftain, but Abdul-Jabbar stopped him in time. After all, the orcs have the freedom to choose their own path, and Jabbar doesn't want to be the second Bloodroar.

The most painful choice, like the one in World War I, was done for the sake of the tribe, but was not understood by his companions. There is no more painful choice in life than this.
