Demon King, Don’t Run Away

Chapter 480: Abandoned village

Looking back to make sure that no one was following, Yang Yu drove the Lothcar forward.

The strong wind blew her messy hair, and Bai Jin looked at the ethnic disguise necklace in her hand.

"Yang Yu, did you know that your identity would be exposed?"

Yang Yu shrugged, "That's not the case.

Orcs have superior senses to humans, and I can't be sure that the racial camouflage necklace can fool them 100%.

I was just always prepared to be discovered.”

Lotkar has excellent hearing and sense of smell. Although the Silver Fang clan can transform into huge wolf-shaped monsters, they are also canine orcs.

Most likely, other canine orcs also possess super senses, which Yang Yu had to pay attention to.

However, Yang Yu did not expect that Wansheng Country actually provided special training for canine orcs, allowing them to easily distinguish the smell of humans and other races.

As for how they were trained.

To be honest, Yang Yu was very curious.

Should I place clothes with human smell on them in front of them all day, or put things with human smell among a pile of things with various smells and ask them to pick them out.

If Yang Yu were to train the beast, he would definitely take out stinky tofu, stinky socks, canned herrings and the like, and smear them on a strip of cloth that was not stained with human smell. Every half an hour, he would let the dog beastman choose, and if he didn't make the right choice, he would not be allowed to eat.

This is not just about disgusting orcs.

Based on Yang Yu's past experience, some people will do anything for profit.

What if they took advantage of the dog-like orcs' keen sense of smell and shouted "Done, Oli," causing the dog-like orcs' noses to receive unprecedented strong stimulation, causing them to accidentally faint

Sometimes, being overly sensitive isn't necessarily a good thing.

Therefore, it is necessary to exercise their tolerance.

Moving forward along the road, Yang Yu and his companions passed through the swamp, crossed the plains, and headed towards the Forest of Life.

On the way, they met many patrolling soldiers, and the deeper they went, the higher the level and attributes of the enemy became.

The patrolling orcs were still mostly canine orcs, and they could not be avoided. After communication failed, Yang Yu had no choice but to make them temporarily lose their combat ability, and then acted as if he could take their lives at any time and left in a cool manner.

So far, Yang Yu has not killed any orcs.

This is not because he is kind, but because he wants to leave a name for himself.

Two humans, accompanied by two elves and riding a giant wolf, broke into the Wansheng Kingdom, but did not kill or take away any orcs. What their purpose was would definitely give outsiders room for speculation.

The more people talk about it and discuss it, the more likely it is that one day these rumors will reach the ears of the country's rulers.

At that time, it would not be difficult to temporarily abandon your human identity and move up step by step.

Continuing forward, after a few more days, Yang Yu and his team finally stepped into the boundary of the Forest of Life.

Along the way, Yang Yu saw many abandoned villages.

After arriving at the Forest of Life, Yang Yu finally found a village with living people.

Away from the village, Yang Yu wrote some notes and asked Yiya to take Ha Ke to ask questions.

In addition to asking for directions, Yang Yu also asked the reason why the village was abandoned.

After asking around, Yang Yu found out that as the war between the Rose Empire and the Wansheng Kingdom became increasingly fierce, many scattered orcs were concentrated in several large cities.

Wansheng State will not force residents who are unwilling to move, but hopes that they can provide some resources from the forest, which the state will purchase at normal prices.

The Wansheng Kingdom sent many people to go to the countryside and villages to carry out propaganda, telling the sub-people living in the forest about the current situation and the possible consequences after failure.

What impressed the villagers most was that the propagandist mentioned the war in the Dark Ages.

Originally, in this world, demihumans were widely distributed.

However, due to the wars in the Dark Ages, humans began to be xenophobic, which eventually led to the separation of the human world and the subhuman world.

This situation has continued to this day.

On the human side, there are the Republic of Terun, the Rose Empire, the Kingdom of Setis, and the absolutely neutral Library of All Things; on the demi-human side, there are the Wansheng Kingdom dominated by orcs, the Dragon God Council Kingdom, a multi-racial country dominated by dragons, and the Ocean Principality, an island country dominated by various sea-dwelling species.

Among them, the founding history of Wansheng Kingdom was the most bumpy.

Dragons are the most powerful creatures in the world, and the country they founded is also the country with the longest history in the world.

Anyone who attempts to invade the Dragon God Council will be crushed like an ant by the dragon, including Setis, the most powerful person in human history who almost unified the entire human world.

Back then, Setis was extremely powerful and was just one step away from unifying mankind. However, it was shattered by a single touch from the dragon that had recovered its vitality, and its area shrunk to three-quarters of its size before the war of conquest began.

The Principality of the Ocean is located at the southernmost part of this world. Since the Dragon God Council is a natural barrier that blocks humans, they don't have to worry about any foreign invasion. At most, there will be disputes between a few different sea-dwelling species over the ownership of the sea area.

Only Wansheng Kingdom has no overwhelmingly strong leader in charge, and is surrounded by powerful enemies.

Before the start of the human's xenophobic killing campaign, the different species of sub-humans were like a pile of loose sand and were slaughtered one after another. When their survival was at stake, one man finally stood up and led all the sub-humans to unite and establish the country of Wansheng in the west of the continent.

The word "Sheng" in the country of Wansheng can be read as "prosperous", which means that the Asian people can prosper on this land, or "blooming", which means that no matter what kind of Asian people, they can find a place to stay on this land.

Therefore, when they knew what kind of crisis the country was facing, many villages responded to the country's call, moved to safe areas, and contributed their own strength to the war.

This is what created the "ghost" villages that Yang Yu saw.

Iyas also received a pamphlet used for official propaganda of Wansheng Kingdom from the old orc who asked the question.

Yang Yu took it and took a look. It contained simple and clear illustrations and easy-to-understand text that even a child could understand for promotional purposes.

Unfortunately, the propaganda was too concise, which also had its drawbacks. In order to highlight that this was a just war, the Wansheng government had begun to demonize the Rose Empire.

It is not known whether it will hinder the ceasefire between the two sides.

What surprised Yang Yu was that there was actually a recruitment advertisement on the back of this booklet.

The conscription requirements, conscription benefits, and conscription locations are all available. After completing the trivial tasks, Yang Yu can even use this booklet to sign up for military service directly.

After all, it doesn't say above that it must be a sub-personnel.

After carefully folding the booklet brought by Iyas and storing it in the system, Yang Yu and the others rode on Lothkar's back again.
