Chapter Ninety-Seven: Hybrids the Rich
The very large tiger man sat on a throne paved entirely with fine fur, and the colorful patterns and huge fangs on his body, as well as the muscles full of explosive power, and the most impressive thing was the natural word 'king' on his forehead, all of which reflected the majesty above the ordinary orcs. wWw。 しwχS520。 coM
The Tigerman is the Emperor of the Orc Empire, Rickelk. The Orc Empire advocates force, and the patriarch of almost every tribe is the number one master in the clan. And the patriarch has the right to participate in the election of the orc emperor who is not elected every five years, so each orc emperor is not necessarily the first master among the orcs, but it is definitely a temporary choice. For example, the current Tiger Man Krk is the number one master among the orcs.
The old orc standing in front of Rickelk had a fox-like head, and his half-open, half-closed eyes flashed with wisdom from time to time. This fox man is the great shaman of the Orc Empire - Subaru.
And the lion-headed tabby standing next to Subaru the Fox and the orc who participated in the sealing of the Demon Eye is Subaru's personal bodyguard and student - House. This house has both the appearance of a lion man and the markings of a tiger man, which is very peculiar, and looks like a hybrid born of a combination of a lion and a tiger man.
At this time, Rickelk sat lazily on the throne, and Subaru sat on the sidelines to report on the progress of the soldiers and the transportation of grain and grass.
Rickerke's sleepiness with the barrage of numbers in Subaru's mouth gave him a real headache for them, especially from Subaru's high-pitched voice, which was as good as hundreds of flies buzzing in his ears. He would rather face the bloody fighting scene than listen to Subaru's nagging.
He waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay...... Great shaman, you just have to tell me when I can kill those cowardly humans, what kind of soldiers are arranged, how long the food and grass will last, you can see what to do......"
The old fox Subaru's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, and he was extremely disgusted by the impatience of the newly elected Tiger Renkerk. I thought to myself, how could this empty and empty-headed Rickelk be elected emperor of the orc empire at the time of this southern invasion?
Originally, this southern invasion was launched by the previous emperor, the lion man Bingley, and it had been prepared for more than a year. Although the Lion Bentley is slightly inferior to the Tiger Kirk in terms of force, it is much stronger than Rick Kirk in terms of intelligence and prestige, and the two cannot be compared at all. The southern invasion, which could have started three months ago, had to be temporarily stopped due to the change of the orc emperor. originally thought that with Bingley's talent, he would definitely be re-elected to the position of emperor, but what he didn't expect was that the patriarchs of those tribal councils didn't know what the hell was going on, and they unanimously elected Rickelke, a straw bag who can only use force.
Subaru endured his dissatisfaction, in the Orc Empire, the 'Great Shaman' was a very lofty position. Not only is he in charge of all shamans, but he is also the person responsible for communicating with the 'beast god'. Even if you are the emperor of the Orc Empire, you have to give three points to the 'Great Shaman', only this straw bale Rick has nothing to do with himself. Taking a deep breath, he said calmly: "With our current preparations, it is estimated that in a month, the gathering of grain and grass will be completed, and it will be winter at that time. If it snows, it will greatly slow down the mobility of the human cavalry, which will be of great benefit to us. Moreover, the 'Blood Beast Legion' that was originally guarding the Demon Eye can now be completely freed, and with the combat power of the Blood Beast Legion, it can completely crush all human resistance. ”
Rickelk's originally impatient look lit up when he heard the 'Blood Beast Legion', and he suddenly said, "Who is leading the Blood Beast Legion now?"
Rickelk had just become emperor and was unaware of some of the previous things. In particular, the 'Blood Beast Legion' is known as the cornerstone of the Orc Empire, and everything outside is kept secret, including how to train, stationed there, ordinary orcs know nothing, even the patriarchs of various tribes, because these orcs are completely trained by 'shamans'.
Subaru was stunned for a moment, feeling a little bad in his heart when Rickelk suddenly became interested in the Blood Beast Legion. But he couldn't help but answer, pointing to House standing beside him and saying, "Now he leads the Blood Beast Legion......"
Subaru was afraid that Rickelk would have any bad thoughts, so he continued: "House has been leading the Blood Beast Legion for three years, and he has done a good job in treating his subordinates and training the legion to handle military affairs. ”
Rickelke's tiger eyes squinted at House, and he sneered, "Is it? how can the most powerful legion in the empire be led by a 'mongrel'? Isn't this a blatant discrediting legion?"
House was born from a combination of a lion and a tiger man, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a 'mongrel'. But the tribal estrangement between the orcs is very deep, no worse than the estrangement between them and the human elven dwarves. Especially the two most powerful lion and tiger people, generally speaking, the education of these two tribes is to die and never get along. But what I didn't expect was that there were actually two lion and tiger people who fell in love with each other and gave birth to 'House', but for House, both tribes did not admit that they were people of their own tribe, and they were quite repulsive to him, and finally the two tribes wanted to kill the young House, if it didn't happen to coincide with Subaru going to the two tribes to find the orcs with excellent qualifications, and take House away, House would have died at the hands of the two tribes. In the same way, the two major tribes still can't let go of this matter, which is why they will force Krk to speak out this wild word.
At the same time as Rickelk's words fell, the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became tense. House still stood beside Subaru with a blank face, but the aura on his body soared suddenly, the hanging sideburns fluttered up without wind, and the muscles hidden under the armor jumped tightly, and the blood was swelling, and a murderous aura filled the tent, and the strong breath even suppressed the flames of the campfire used for heating in the tent to shrink and shrink, and was about to be extinguished.
Rickelk still looks lazy, but there is a cruel and tyrannical look in his eyes, as long as House dares to do it, it just gives him a reason to kill House, so that this bastard who ruined the reputation of the tiger man will disappear forever, and his title of the first master of the orcs is not given for nothing. Strategizing may not be his strong point, but he dares to say that force is second among orcs, and no one dares to call it first.
Just as House was about to explode, Subaru suddenly said, "House...... You go outside and look around to see if the grain and grass are in the predetermined place. ”
Interrupted by Subaru, House could only endure his desperate mood and whispered "yes" to Subaru before walking out of the big tent.
And after Rickel left, Rickelke's eyes showed a look of regret, he missed the opportunity to kill House, he was depressed, and he was very dissatisfied with Subaru, the old fox man. He said to Subaru: "Now pass my order to deprive the House of the leadership of the Blood Beast Legion and go to the reconnaissance battalion as a scout...... There is also the Blood Beast Legion, which will be directly led by me in the future. ”
Subaru didn't expect Rickelk to give such an order, there was no reason for him, he was always calm, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "The Blood Beast Legion has always been led by House, and only he can command the legion like an arm, and now he is changing generals...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. And House didn't commit any crimes, so why send him to the scout camp?"
Rickelk snorted a few times and said arrogantly, "Yes, he has not committed any crimes...... If he was really guilty, would I still let him go to the reconnaissance camp? ”
Subaru was so angry that he trembled and pointed at Krk and said, "How can you be so unreasonable?As an emperor who wants to think about the interests of the orc empire, I will go to the tribal council to ask for a complaint against you......"
Rickelk said disdainfully: "Whatever you want...... In any case, I have the right to order any military movement during this southern invasion. And then you think the tribal council will listen to you? Let me tell you, the reason why Bentley was not elected this time is because the power of the lion man is too great now, and you see how many terms the lion man has been re-elected as emperor? 10 terms ...... Is there room for other tribes to survive like this?"
When Subaru heard this, his whole body suddenly deflated like a deflated ball. Indeed, as Rickelk said, during the period of the Lionman's re-election, the Lion Man has produced many talents, and there are already faint signs of suppressing other orc tribes, and if this continues, the balance will be broken. It seems that this change of emperor is the result of other tribes uniting against the lionmen. It is no wonder that in this southern invasion, all the vanguard troops are basically composed of lionmen, which is simply a premeditated attempt to weaken the strength of the lionmen.
Thinking of this, Subaru's withered body was even older, and he walked out of the base camp with heavy steps, at this time, there was a light snow in the sky, and the coldness in his heart was the same as the chill in the air, looking at the continuous and infinitely vibrant marching camp, and the high-morale orc warriors, his heart was extremely sad. Perhaps, in the near future, these warriors will remain in this strange land forever. And the long-awaited victory scene is as distant as a mirage. Unconsciously, in the icy cold wind, there were a few crystalline ice beads blowing under the corners of his eyes......
In the northwest of the Saatchi Empire, there were three provinces, each of which was very large, and the three together covered more than 400,000 square kilometers. This is because the climate here is bitter and cold, which is not very suitable for farming, and is basically based on animal husbandry. The population is also not very large, less than a million people. It's much worse than other provinces.
At this time, the three northwestern provinces were still nervously preparing to deal with the attack of the orcs. But the undercurrent is surging, and it is even more intense, basically the noble lords of these three provinces have received invitation letters from the Ninth Legion, and the content of the letter is probably to invite these nobles to Kayan City, where the headquarters of the Ninth Legion is located, to discuss the matter of fighting against the orcs and asking for conscription. >
