The subhuman race to which General Duoshi belongs is specifically called Tusked Boar.
Unlike most orcs, the Tusk Boars live in swamps far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and have little interaction with other orc races, so they have retained some unique customs and habits.
The existing Tusky Boar tribe is divided into three settlements along three different large swamps.
The swamp that Yang Yu and his team are heading to is located in the eastern part of the Long Boots area of the Cerrovomen Plain. It is the largest settlement and the hometown of General Duoshi.
Unfortunately, General Duoshi was busy with military duties and could not personally lead Yang Yu and the others to visit the life of the Tusk Boar tribe.
But General Doshi sent out one of his own guards to assist Yang Yu in taking what he needed as much as possible.
Yang Yu was very careful when heading to the swamp.
If some powerful assassins are attracted, things will become quite troublesome.
The winter offensive is getting closer and closer. The sooner the feasibility of the plan is proven, the sooner we can prepare. If it doesn’t work, we can also think of other strategies.
To be honest, if this plan proves to be unfeasible, Yang Yu might actually breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Yang Yu sincerely hopes that this plan is feasible.
Yang Yu hasn't had this kind of conflicting feeling for a long time.
After passing through some sparse woods, General Duoshi's guards appeared in front of Yang Yu and his companions.
Everyone took off their heavy and uniform armor and put on tan waistcoat-like clothing, which reflected slightly in the mottled sunlight in the woods.
These clothes are woven from materials that are not easily stained with water.
After a few simple greetings, the guards took Yang Yu and his group to their settlement.
Although it is late autumn, the forest still looks lush and green, filled with turbid moisture, and the chirping of various mosquitoes can be heard.
The sun was shining brightly, and the forest felt indescribably hot and stuffy.
If they hadn't seen the yellowing bushes and grass beside the puddles, Yang Yu and the others would have thought it was still midsummer.
As he went deeper, Yang Yu could see more and more muddy areas.
A strangely rugged tree, surrounded by a pool of muddy water and several unnamed plants, has become an extremely common sight.
For people who are not familiar with the swamp, once they step on something they shouldn't step on, or walk in a place they shouldn't walk, they are likely to be swallowed up by the entire swamp.
The Tusker Boar tribe lives near this dangerous swamp.
Every dangerous place in the swamp is firmly engraved in the memory of their race, and only the Tusky Boar can understand the monsters in this swamp and know the burial place of special treasures.
Since most of the land here is swampy and difficult to navigate, it would be a thankless task for the Rose Empire to attack here, so invasion has the lowest priority.
Although the Rose Empire probably could not threaten this swamp, General Duoshi was well aware that the lips and teeth are in danger, so he responded to the call for an alliance with the Wansheng Kingdom and intervened in the war between the two countries with some of his people.
Now this Tusky Wild Boar village is led by the patriarch "Iron Head" who is nearly fifty years old.
The village of the Tusk Boar Clan is right on the edge of the swamp. Their houses are built close to the trees and are made of light yet sturdy wooden houses.
Following the guards walking and stopping in the village, and crossing a long wooden bridge, Yang Yu finally met "Iron Head", who is now the village chief.
He looks similar to Duoshi, but is much rougher and wilder.
If appearance reflects the heart, Yang Yu could tell at a glance that Tietou in front of him had a bad temper.
“I heard about your affairs from Duoshi.
I don't know what you want to do with that stuff, but since you need it, take as much as you want.
Unfortunately, there are dangerous monsters lurking nearby.
There is no way you can take those things away with just a few of you."
Before Tietou could finish his words, he saw Yang Yu suddenly get excited and throw out a bunch of questions, almost drowning him.
"A place like this must be full of all kinds of monsters, and there should be some adventurers looking for materials. Do you know what kind of monsters they attack
In this forest, how many unapproachable monsters are there? Where are they located
You have been guarding this swamp for generations. Have you heard any strange legends or found any strange things
Are there any problems in the village recently
Don't worry. I'm here and I'll definitely help you.
I just need you to provide information."
Before Yang Yu came, Tietou made many speculations about what kind of person Yang Yu was and came to his own conclusion:
He has made great achievements at such a young age. He must be a very arrogant person. It takes a lot of effort to get along with such a person.
But Tietou could never have dreamed that this general from the Wansheng Kingdom’s army was so enthusiastic, and it seemed that his mission was to come and help them, and taking that thing away was just a coincidence.
But Yang Yu’s enthusiasm made Tietou feel a little uneasy.
Judging from the general's age, he is just a rookie and is full of passion. However, for some things, passion alone is not enough.
So, Tietou still wanted to test Yang Yu according to the original plan.
“It’s not that there aren’t some troubles.
Recently, several swamp crocodiles have gathered on several main passages. If you want to get that thing, you must defeat a few swamp crocodiles.
That is not something that ordinary people can handle.”
"Leave it to me. Can you tell me about their habitat and habits?"
At Yang Yu's request, Tietou told him the distribution and habits of the swamp mud crocodiles.
As soon as Yang Yu got the information, he immediately set out to eliminate the swamp mud crocodiles.
Swamp Mud Crocodiles are dangerous crocodile monsters that live in swamp forests. They often mix with the mud and attack any creature that passes by. Their weak points are the armpits of their forelimbs.
In the mud and water, they cannot see outside clearly, and it seems that they are emitting magic through their armpits to identify the surrounding environment.
Even the Tusky Boar Clan often needs to organize more than a dozen people to deal with a swamp mud crocodile, let alone Yang Yu and his group
Originally, Tietou wanted to gather the strength of the entire clan and help Yang Yu take down those swamp mud crocodiles when Yang Yu racked his brains and still couldn't find a way to deal with them.
However, the result was beyond Tietou's expectations.
Yang Yu had been gone for less than half a day when a tusk boar guard hurried over to report to Tietou.
"Something terrible is happening!"
"What happened? Did something happen to the general?"
"No, Chief, go and have a look!"
Under the guidance of the guard, Tietou hurried to a place in the swamp, where he saw the corpses of four or five swamp mud crocodiles piled high.
That’s not all. Next to the corpses of these swamp mud crocodiles, the corpses of various ferocious monsters have been piled up as high as a small mountain.
While Yang Yu was directing his companions to give electric therapy to a swamp mud crocodile that was trying to struggle, he was trying to stuff a severed crocodile hand into the body of a blue slime.
