Chapter 539: Wait for me to triumph

Deep in the Storm Horn Mountains.

When the orc Gerdan, armed with a bone staff, learned that the Abyssal Gate had been destroyed, the orc prophet was not only not the least discouraged, but greatly relieved.

Because even between demons and demons, there are conflicts of power and interests, and this demonic invasion of Comanso in the north is completely out of his and his teacher's plans.

If the leader of the Frostwolf Clan, who is now on the highest glacier at the Ridge of the World, the Sword Saint - Drororu Frostwolf Landreso Abyss roars here, he must want to chop his heart.

Because this orc prophet named Geldan was a student of the first corrupted orc in the Northland, Nerio, and was also one of the spokesmen of the Abyssal Demon in the main material plane.

In order to please the demon lord of the abyss, the two orcs did not hesitate to mix the demonic blood in food and feed it to the orc army, spreading abyssal erosion between the spine of the world and the orc tribes of the supreme glacier.

This led to nearly half a century of chaos between the orc tribes on the Ridge of the World, and at least hundreds of Drorou's sons and grandsons died on the ice peak.

And for the master and apprentice of Gerdan, the orc swordmaster, Drogou, is also a ruthless character who is as difficult as an old enemy.

They had tried countless times to unite the tribe to the south, but they were thwarted by each other.

So his teacher Nerio was the first to suffer because of the disadvantage of the battle...

The body of the poor old orc prophet was dragged by the angry lord Koschurch to the frost realm on the 23rd floor of the bottomless abyss and taken to 'wrap', leaving only his soul to be tortured.

And the reason why the angry lord was so angry with Geldan's memories was:

It was not enough that his teacher was not able to fight well, and perhaps the most important thing was that he failed to sacrifice the Heavenly Kingdom suit promised to the great demon lord in time.

That thing is in short supply even in the human world, especially after it was discontinued, it was reduced to an out-of-print print, the price was inflated, not to mention, for their orcs, the difficulty of obtaining it became purgatory.

Later, the teacher tried his best to use a corrupt human being, and finally got a set of so-called 'heavenly weapons' from the black market of the human city-state.

But Geldan had seen it with his own eyes, and it seemed to be an ordinary abyss tentacle...

And I don't know if it's because the weather on the Supreme Glacier is so cold, that thing freezes like a popsicle.

He still remembered the silent scene of the teacher and the angry lord for a long time when he carefully chanted the name of the angry lord and sacrificed it to his master.

The Angry Lord had been furious all day in a state of utter rage...

The next day, Gerdan learned that his teacher had been dragged into the abyss to 'keep company' with the Angry Lord.

Soon he received an interdimensional 'courier' ——— his teacher.

At that time, Nerio had been attached to a suit of armor, and then wrapped it in a huge block of ice, and threw it on the Supreme Glacier.

Let him endure the pain of endless ice while continuing to serve the Angry Lord.

This made Gerdan, who was just a child back then, tremble with fright, and his face turned blue.

With the start of the reforestation project in the eastern desert of Zeelandia, it was finally impossible for Gerdan to stay on even the highest glaciers.

He was forced to cross the desert with a band of corrupt orcs and the Teacher's bone staff to the Stormhorn Mountains in an attempt to make a comeback.

And the undead plague that began to spread along the shores of the Falling Star Sea undoubtedly made Gerdan see an opportunity.

After he reported the incident to the angry lord Koschurch, the demon lord bestowed upon his teacher a powerful psychic power.

Beyond the desert, Geldan can communicate with the teacher through the bone staff, and use the plague of the Falling Star Sea to fuel the flames and collect souls to sacrifice to the demon lord.

Koschurch promised Nerio that if the mission was successful, he would not only atone for his crimes, but also grant him a wish.

Gerdan also knows exactly what the teacher's greatest wish is.

At the same time, he also knew that after so many years of getting along, his teacher did not believe in the promises of the temperamental demon lord so much.

So on this day, when it was learned that the human prince of Cormier was leading a assembled army to march towards the Stormhorn Mountains.

In Gerdan's mind, the teacher's murmur sounded...

......

At the same time, Altaïs stared at the dry piles of bones in the valley that seemed to have been drained of all blood and souls, and his face sank like water.

This is undoubtedly the work of those savage orcs.

At the same time, these terrifying and strange corpses also made his head hurt for a while, and some shadowy memories seemed to break through the water and emerge.

He remembered something in a trance.

He seems to have encountered a similar scene when he was fighting the undead scourge in the south.

The entire village was sacrificed to an unknown being by some cultists using some cruel ritual, and then turned into the undead and continued to spread the plague.

When he was transferred north to Tifanton, he seemed to be dealing with a plague in a large city.

He only vaguely remembers... His teacher was angry and disappointed in him.

But the memory was interrupted there.

So much so that his memories of recent days were somewhat confused with the recurring nightmares.

But his instincts made him feel that this group of orcs hiding in the Stormhorn Mountains was inseparable from the undead scourge on the coast.

Maybe as long as he gets rid of these orcs, he'll find the answer he's looking for.

Just... Deal with the undead scourge that is growing in the South!

This may have made Altaïs faintly excited.

But this discovery, while exhilarating, did not make him lose his mind.

The bodies of the missing refugees were all here, so there was no need for him to take more risks with Zilongwei for the sake of impulse.

So he waited with his men for three days and three nights on the cold ice peak until the 'reinforcements' arrived.

However, the number of troops made up by the nobles was only half of what he expected, and it must have been the nobles who disbanded a group after hearing that the danger of the northern demons had been resolved.

But for Altais, just dealing with those orcs was enough.

To his surprise, the adjutant who rushed back the same way also brought him a letter.

The letter was written by his father, Yasan III.

After reading the contents of the letter, the Cormier prince couldn't help but purse his lips and smile.

Although he had repeatedly guessed that the Silver Dragon Lord might have made a request, he never expected that the other party's request would be like this...

In the letter, Ahsan states that after a preliminary meeting, Levi, the lord of Zeelandia, proposed to them Cormier:

It is hoped that Cormier will be able to return all willing half-elf slaves to freedom, and that he will have the right to move to the Northlands if he chooses.

Correspondingly, Cormier can also receive trade tax benefits from Zeellandia and put forward certain conditions.

In this letter, his father also analyzed the possible pros and cons of this decree for him in detail, and asked for his opinion.

How did he not know, in fact, the best choice, his father had already made a decision in his heart.

And the reason why I did this was because my father was already very old...

All of this is in the hope of leading by example and teaching him how to be a qualified king in the few hours of his life...

Thinking of this, Altais couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart, and immediately replied:

"Dear Father.

"It's definitely a win-win option.

"If it were me, I would also choose to give these half-elves freedom in front of this difficult situation, and at the same time solve the increasingly scarce food crisis, in exchange for fame and fortune.

"That Silver Dragon Lord, His Excellency Levi, is also a respectable existence.

"It is a pity that I was not able to be by your side during such a meeting that will be remembered by history to learn how you have governed this kingdom with wisdom.

"But rest assured, I will use my power carefully in accordance with your teachings.

"I've found some clues about the undead scourge in the Stormhorn Mountains.

"If it can be successfully resolved, this victory will undoubtedly be an inspiration for the people to regain their strength.

"So, father, please wait a little longer in Susar.

"I will take the gift of healing Cormier with the gift of healing Cormier on the day of the Liberation of the Half-Elf Holy Shrine as scheduled...

"Triumphant return. ”

"——— your son, Altais. ”
