After losing the only hostile threat in Hekate's mind, Ouroboros began an exaggerated expansion.

At this moment, there is no power in the Buraku region that can compare to the Ouroboros.

Hekate's hounds and daughters roamed almost all tribes in the north and south, and even a tribe as powerful as the Blackfoot tribe had to seriously consider accepting the daughter of Hekat sent by Hekate.

In any case, their prowess in medicine and midwifery is unquestionable, and the health care of the tribes where they are stationed is indeed very different from before, and the survival rate of newborns has skyrocketed.

After the daughters of Hekate generally entered the tribes, it was not without cases of repetition and friction.

For some of these tribes, when the hounds came to the door, they had no sound or movement, and for other medium-sized and large tribes that were not suitable for such behavior, Professor Hekate gave her daughters other methods.

The highly renovated pre-war building contained some of the old chemical production equipment, which was originally used for an unascertained purpose, and the products were dangerous, but for Hecate they were treasures from the heavens.

With the knowledge he gained from the nursery, Hekat concocted several drugs with different effects, which could be quietly spread across farmland, wells, livestock feed, and insect colonies, and then quickly and continuously act on an entire tribe.

As a result, the thorns who disobeyed Hecate's edict were subjected to a terrible curse, and overnight, the curse suddenly came to them in a way they could not understand.

Men lose their self-confidence and pride, they become impotent; The pregnant woman looked in horror at her child, who had a deformed body; Farmland either does not produce crops or is eaten away by pests; The livestock died and ran, and those who stayed behind went crazy all day long..... Those tribes who were so violent as to dare to kill the daughter of Hekate were doubly punished, and for a time, most of them died inexplicably or were tormented by serious illness, and hounds surrounded the outskirts of the village, cutting off the tribe from all contact with the outside world.

Eventually, the overwhelmed tribe surrendered on its knees, only to be slaughtered by the hounds, whose corpses were hung high and painted with Ouroboros symbols, informing all the ill-intentioned tribes of how terrible Hekat's divine punishment was.

Some tribes struggled to explain to Hekat that the death of Hekate's daughter was not due to the tribe, and when it was confirmed, the punishment continued until the arrival of the new Hekate's daughter.

The creatures that Hekate had spread that were essentially bioweapons had an astonishing effect among the natives, and one by one they fell under her coercion, and the daughters of Hekate took the opportunity to take control of the village's fertility.

They now had the power to designate marriage and reproduction, and the union of a man and a woman in the tribe had to be approved by them, failing which they would be expelled from the tribe and aborted, or at worst sick or put to death.

The daughters of Hekate were responsible for directing the birth of all the tribesmen, and during the birth of pregnant women, only the daughters of Hekate and those allowed by them were allowed to approach the special tents, and any male was denied entry.

Most of the natives never thought of or speculated about the possibility that the daughters of Hekate might have done something during this time.

According to Hekate's direct instructions, the daughters of Hekat will select all newborns according to uniform criteria, and the brightest girls and the strongest boys will not be able to see their biological parents because they will be dropped.

A frail infant from another tribe will take the place of the better ones, and the child will be sent to the orphanage of Ouroboros to be educated by Hecate to become a new Hecate Hound or Hecate daughter.

So, as soon as this action began, the other tribes began to fall into a slow and debilitating terminal illness, and they faced an inexplicable lack of success.

Even children born to strong fathers and wise mothers are uncharacteristically difficult to even live, let alone be expected to take over the responsibilities of their parents.

On the other side, Ouroboros Village is thriving. Day after day, Hekate calculated when her revenge would begin, and when she was convinced that she was strong enough, she ordered a bloody purge.

The hounds traveled to the tribes she had designated, which had become much weaker than before, and the hounds slaughtered them all without much effort and burned the village to the ground.

The tribes on the list were the ones who had humiliated and threatened her in the first place. After years of precipitation, Hecate's heart became more and more stirring, and the fire of revenge and illness burned her heart every moment.

It wasn't enough to wipe out these tribes gradually, she had one of her most important targets for revenge, and that was the Legion.

However, the legion showed no sign of returning, and Hekat noticed the business of the visitors from the west.

After investigation, it was found that the people were growing faster than Hekate had expected, and they had set up several points in the wider area and connected them by rail.

Hekate believed that the places occupied by the NcR were her own, and that she had to destroy the outsiders who dared to do so.

However, the Vipers are uncharacteristically adamantly opposed to war with the NcR, believing that it is absolutely irrational.

Hekate was furious because of this, on the one hand, she secretly decided to gradually replace the core members of the Hekate Hound with new members who were absolutely loyal to her, and on the other hand, she also wanted to try more, is that NcR so powerful that even she who has controlled more than twenty tribes can't parry?

Just when the contradiction was about to erupt and Ouroboros Village was about to be exposed to NcR's eyes, a major event suddenly appeared.

The Legion sent a team of 100 men back from the east, and they went around collecting slaves and buying them from various tribes, and the demand could be said to be great.

Hekat deliberately revealed the information about the NcR's construction here to the Legion's hundred-man team, and the centurion led by him took the bait arrogantly and belligerently, leading the centaurs to eradicate these small threats that he thought threatened the Legion's backyard, but unexpectedly they suffered a small loss at the hands of some wandering NcR special troops.

Enraged, the centurion launched a storming of the Ashid fortress, the core of the NcR settlement's railway network, and a large number of legion veterans armed with pistols, submachine guns, and improvised explosives bravely faced the NcR soldiers, who had long been completely unprepared for a formal battle because they had only been entangled with some of the tribesmen, and were terrified at this time.

Although the NcR soldiers also tried to save the tide of the battle and tried to save the important fortress of Rashid, the slow reaction at the start of the battle had made the Legion's offensive unstoppable, and they retreated in disarray, leaving behind corpses and the destroyed fortress of Ashid.

And the Legion didn't get much to gain, the death toll of the precious veterans was staggering, the victory at a terrible cost was worthless, and the destroyed stronghold could not provide the Legion with anything it wanted.

What's more, in the absence of supplies and manpower, the slave target that had just started was clearly unable to be completed.

What happened after that, Hekat did not know the specifics, and as far as the result was concerned, the Legion of Hundreds, which had lost much strength, abandoned their original mission and disappeared into the East again.

The NcR at Hoover Dam was also shaken by the sudden appearance of an unknown enemy. Instead of organizing a counter-offensive afterwards, they deserted on a large scale and a series of upheavals in remote settlements, which led to the collapse of the settlement railroad network with Fort Ashid at its core, and the remnants of the NcR retreated back to the Hoover Dam.

Of course, the most shocking thing was Hekat hiding in Ouroboros Village. The information brought back by some of the people who had quietly arrived near the battlefield to observe the changes in the situation of the battle made Hekate's originally swollen confidence instantly turn like a metal can that had been trampled on.

If the Legion had discovered her existence and launched an attack on her Ouroboros village, would she have ended up like those in the West?

A vigorous campaign of defensive reinforcement was carried out under the command of Hecate, a large number of slaves were recruited from various tribes, and a defensive ditch around Ouroboros village began to be dug.

She ordered a search for materials suitable for use as walls, and in the barren and parched cities of Colorara and Mississippipe, the natives had scraped the ground three feet to provide the hounds with locations to bury in the dust of the pre-war ruins.

Rusty scrapped cars, trucks, RVs, and even battered yachts dug out of some dry lakes were slowly transported to Ouroboros Village, where they became city walls, improvised houses, and a universal material.

She still had a lot to prepare, and Hekate was confident that if she was given a few more years, she would have plenty of room to deal with it, whether the Legion came back or not.

Ouroboros will eventually devour all the tribes of the land, and after that, she will defeat the Legion. When she completes this divine vengeance, she will return to heaven, where she only wants to be.
