In the north of the mainland, Behemoth Castle.
The scale of the orc city is far from that of humans, but this city is full of primitive roughness, with huge stones and rough streets, all showing a kind of wildness.
The name of Beamon Castle comes from an ancient behemoth, Beamon, which is an extremely powerful beast. It is said that it is so powerful that it can tear a young red dragon in half. In ancient times, even powerful dragons had to avoid their sharp edges when on the ground. Even in order to protect their cubs from being attacked by Behemoth, flying dragons usually breed on cliffs or isolated overseas islands. The next generation.
Later, humans slowly rose, and a large number of humans began to challenge the dominance of those ancient beasts. Although on a single basis, the power of a single human is so small that it can be ignored compared to those ancient behemoths, the greatest characteristics of human beings are their numbers and unity.
After thousands of years of killing, the number of Behemoths was greatly reduced, and this ancient behemoth slowly disappeared from the continent. Some people say that they have been slaughtered, while others say that there are only a few of them left, hiding in the remote mountains. Both of these statements have a large number of supporters, and both can produce various evidences to prove the correctness of their views. However, no matter which statement they are, they all have a common understanding, that is, no one is in mainland China anymore. I've seen traces of them.
Behemoth Castle is built on the mountain, and its center is the high mountain. The palace where the beast king Andreas, who rules the entire orc tribe, lives is located here.
Beast King Andreas and Prophet Evan are in a not very big room in this heavily guarded palace. In the past few days, they had conspired with the human rebel leader Senat many times and basically determined the steps and details of the entire plan. Now Senat has left Behemoth Castle in accordance with their agreement, while the Beast King and the Prophet are discussing the future of the orc family.
"Your Majesty the Beast King!" Prophet Evan is still dressed in the same outfit. He is wearing a white bear fur suit, a necklace made of unknown skulls hanging around his neck, and a necklace made of some kind of huge beast's thigh bone in his hand. The completed totem is engraved with an abstract picture of a roaring black bear and a large number of indiscernible words. "The entire plan has been fully matured and can be implemented after we have repeatedly reviewed it."
"Very good, Prophet Evan." The Beast King's young face inevitably showed a trace of excitement: "The dream of the orcs for many years is about to come true. Do you think I can issue an order for all-out war now? ?”
"No, my Majesty the Beast King." There was a half-smile on Prophet Evan's face: "Before you issue an order for all-out war, you must do one thing first!"
"Oh?" The Beast King heard what Prophet Evan said and asked, "Isn't the whole plan already perfect?"
Prophet Evan stretched out his withered right hand and touched the totem in his hand. His old voice seemed to recall the tragedy of the clan war: "Fifty years ago, the Wild Wolf clan devoted all its strength to attack the Thunder God Fortress, but suffered heavy losses. , and then my Barbarian Bear Clan seized the opportunity. It was an extremely brutal clan war, and both sides of the war were the bravest warriors of our orc clan. Unfortunately, they fell to the weapons of their companions... Alas, Time flies so fast, it’s been fifty years in a blink of an eye.”
"Your Majesty the Beast King, the tragic scenes of that year have always been lingering in my mind. If our attack can break through the Thunder God Fortress and step into the South Talon Prairie, then humans will no longer be able to stop us. But what if our Barbarian Bear Clan fails?"
The Beast King said disapprovingly: "If we fail this time, then our orc clan may not be able to advance again in a hundred years. But how could our plan fail if we have such a thorough plan?"
"Your Majesty! You are no longer a brave warrior. Every move and every order you make affects the fate of the Barbarian Bear Clan and even the entire orcs, so..."
"I have learned a lesson, Prophet Evan. Please continue speaking." The Beast King didn't care at all about the tone of Prophet Evan's lecture to him. He nodded respectfully to Prophet Evan, indicating that he had realized his mistake. .
Prophet Evan nodded slowly, and he continued: "So before issuing the order for all-out war, we must first arrange the future of our Barbarian Bear Clan. There are two things here. One is to keep the members of our Barbarian Bear Clan. Seeds and the power to protect these seeds, and second, to eliminate all forces that may threaten the future of our clan.”
The Beast King nodded: "I understand what you mean. I will select three thousand warriors from the clan, and they will escort two thousand boys and five thousand girls to a safe place. If our army wins, there is no need to say anything more; In case of defeat, with these 10,000 seeds, our Barbarian Bear Clan will rise again within twenty years."
"But..." The Beast King changed his tone and said to the prophet: "I'm afraid it will be troublesome to eliminate the threat. There are many people who are dissatisfied with the rule of our Barbarian Bear Clan. If they go on a killing spree at this time, I'm afraid..."
A smile appeared on Prophet Evan's face, and he said to the Beast King in an enlightening tone: "Sometimes, you don't have to do it yourself to eliminate the opponent. Your Majesty, the Beast King, our human allies didn't tell you with their own personal experiences. Us?"
The Beast King suddenly realized, he slapped his thigh hard and said: "That's right! The man named Senat uses the power of our beasts to weaken its opposition in the human world. Similarly, we can also use the power of humans to get rid of us beasts. A threat to the world.”
Prophet Evan looked at the Beast King with approval. The latter became more and more excited as he spoke, and even stood up from his chair: "Since our Barbarian Bear Clan came to power, we have not launched a full-scale war against humans. Even if we have, it is only Small scale. After many years of recuperation, the population of each orc tribe has expanded rapidly. They are usually quiet and peaceful. Everyone is afraid of the rule of my Barbarian Bear Clan and dare not act rashly. But last year, our orc tribe experienced the coldest winter in history. , each clan must have suffered heavy losses."
"Now the population is large and supplies are scarce. If we don't launch a foreign war, the clans will inevitably kill each other soon. However, when we issue an order for all-out war at this time, the clans no longer have to bear the crime of killing each other. They can follow the The agreement back then was that 'whoever occupies the land will own it', relying on its own strength to seize land and slaves from humans."
"With the vast grassland of Nantalun as their driving force to advance and fight after breaking through the Thunder God Fortress, what are they unwilling to pay? Even if it means sacrificing a large amount of their own combat power. Our army is fighting for survival, and its morale remains Having reached the highest peak, coupled with the assistance of human allies, if we can’t set foot on the Nantalun grassland again even if we have such an opportunity, it may really be God’s will.”
Prophet Evan added with a smile: "No matter whether the outcome of the war is victory or defeat, Your Majesty must use this war to weaken the power of other clans, and try to preserve the power of our Barbarian Bear clan. Use the land that has not yet been obtained in the south to exchange for other The clan’s service, let them fight to the death for what they haven’t got yet.”
The Beast King nodded and said: "When I issue the all-out war order, I will warn those clan leaders who hope to preserve their own strength. If they do not give up all the men in their clan who are taller than the wheel height of the 'Mammoth Chariot', When I was brought to the Thunder God Fortress, I was collaborating with the enemy! It was a secret agreement with our mortal enemy, the human race! It was the mortal enemy of all of us orcs!"
"Kill the enemy bravely and kill all the young and middle-aged men. Maybe you can get the land in the south and let the whole clan survive. If you want to preserve your strength, you try to shake the rule of Andreas..." Beast King Andreas said expressionlessly. : "Then just wait to be wiped out by me, the Beast King!"
