Cross the huge Roland continent, all the way to the north. Travel north through the dense and boundless frozen forest. Travel across forgotten ice fields, all the way north...
Under the sacred mountain that once symbolized the glory of the Dragon Race, it has already bid farewell to the silence and solemnity of the past.
At this moment, under the sacred mountain, there are endless large stretches of tents, suggested houses, simple workshops, etc., which can't be seen at a glance.
And just at the foot of the sacred mountain, under the collapsed sacred mountain, the mountain collapse caused by the earthquake, and all the rocks everywhere have been cleared away.
Divine Mountain... At the foot of this mountain, which is completely made of metal, there are rows of workshops, and the smoke from the chimneys almost blackens the sky.
A large number of orcs with bare upper body and strong muscles were waving tools and digging on the sacred mountain. After the large metal mountain rocks were chiseled off, they were transported to the workshop below. Under the command of the craftsmen of the dwarves, they were thrown into huge melting furnaces one after another, and after high-temperature incineration, they turned into molten iron...
Every workshop is filled with the roar of dwarf artisans. This race, born with exquisite craftsmanship, is responsible for making all the weapons and armor needed for the army of criminals. In the workshop full of clanging hammers and chisels, almost every dwarf had a black face from the smoke, and a light touch on the long beard could shake off a large amount of dust.
The army of the criminals is too large, and the equipment in the past is too scarce.
so. Although it has been nearly two years to capture the sacred mountain, despite the huge and towering sacred mountain. Possesses a near-infinite supply of metal ores. However, almost all the dwarves were dispatched, and large areas of workshops were busy day and night, but it was still difficult to meet the needs of a large number of troops.
Among the dwarves. Almost all the members who can wield a hammer have entered the workshop, even women are no exception-in fact, it is difficult to tell the difference between men and women among the dwarves from the perspective of foreign trade. Because they (they) all have a thick and short stature, Kong Wu has polite arms, and can swing a huge hammer while roaring rudely. Even the female dwarves had beards and growled like thunder.
Although the whole clan was busy in battle, there were still not enough manpower, so a large number of orcs came out. In particular, hoofed races (cows and horses, etc.) were added to the workshop to do some simple physical work, and the sparsely populated dwarves were only responsible for commanding and completing some technical tasks that required exquisite craftsmanship.
If you don't introduce it carefully, I'm afraid you will see the people here. No one would think of this as a military camp - because it is like a big construction site that is in full swing.
The orcs are working hard to help the dwarves complete their weapon production. Even the proud Tiger Clan joined in the work. It's a pity that although these tiger tribes are born brave fighters, they are not qualified for this kind of work, so the leader of the tiger tribe, the huge tiger orc Tonghu finally gave up this kind of work, and simply compiled his tribe members Into the logistics.
There is a reason why the copper tiger, the leader of the tiger clan, did this. Feel very dissatisfied because of it!
Although almost all the troops are employed, it is necessary to arm a huge army of millions of people. Even after two years of hard work day and night, it is not so easy to forge armor and weapons. What's more, the dwarves are sparsely populated-the craftsmen are not complete!
Moreover, what makes the Tiger Clan feel angry is that almost all the best weapons and armor made are given priority to other races - the Wolf Clan!
For nothing else, because the annoying and proud Elf King made the decision!
Although the elves' pride often made the orcs feel dissatisfied, there was no doubt that with Luoxue's strength, even the proud Tiger King Bronze Tiger knew that he was no match for them. And similarly, the orcs also need the wisdom of the elves.
Luoxue's reason for giving priority to the supply of the best weapons and armor to the wolf clan is simple: the wolf clan is the only cavalry formation in the criminal army!
cavalry!
This term, almost 10,000 years ago in the era of mythical wars, left sinners with almost shameful pain!
Because in that dark war, the human heavy armored cavalry was a nightmare that these defeated races could never get rid of!
Whether it was the magic archers that the elves were proud of, or the brute warriors of the orcs, they were all defeated by the large-scale heavy cavalry charge of humans!
After learning from the pain, after hundreds of years of reflection after being expelled, the criminals have to admit one thing: cavalry is the most powerful weapon in war! In the bloody battle on the plain, the cavalry is the real trump card!
It's a pity that most of the orcs are bulky and huge. They have strong physique, strength, and courage. Unfortunately, they can't build their own cavalry: they can't find a suitable mount!
Needless to say, the elves, they can fly in the sky, there is no need to give up the advantage of the sky and struggle on the ground - moreover, the proud elves are unwilling to give up their traditions.
As for the dwarves... just look at their thick and short legs, can you expect them to become cavalry
Therefore, the status of the wolf clan has been improved unprecedentedly! Because the wolf clan is the only race that is most suitable for forming cavalry.
An adult werewolf is about the same size as a human being—stronger and more powerful, but not too heavy. Moreover, the wolf tribe also has a giant wolf beast, which is the perfect mount!
Therefore, despite the dissatisfaction of other races, the status of the wolf clan has still been improved, because they are the only cavalry establishment.
The Tiger King Bronze Tiger of the Tiger Clan and the Rhino King Rock of the Hoof Clan were somewhat displeased with this bias, but for the sake of the overall situation, they both tolerated it.
And the leader of the pack of wolves, Dominus, that guy... everybody doesn't like it. Because it is too proud and too indifferent. Moreover, what made the other two giants of the orcs dissatisfied was that Dominez was praised as an orc. But on the standpoint of many things. But it is obviously biased towards the Elf King! For the orcs, they think this is a kind of betrayal.
orc. We should unite with the orcs.
The wolves got the best armor. The highest quality saber. Also, they don't have to take on the heavy work in the workshop. Almost all wolf tribes are working hard to practice their wolf cavalry tactics.
Especially after the Fairy King Luoxue came back from Roland Continent!
Luoxue returned to the foot of the mountain a month ago.
After crossing the barrier magic circle set up by the goddess on the forgotten ice field. Luo Xue looked a little tired. What surprised the Luoxue admirers of the elves was that in their eyes, the leader was almost perfect. The Elf King Luoxue, when he came back, was obviously very tired.
Even the once almost flawless face of the Elf King has a scar! Even though the scar had been condensed with blood, for some reason, the Elf King didn't use his supreme mana to erase the scar... He seemed to keep the scar on purpose.
Everyone saw the change in the Elven King, he became taciturn. Become less fond of showing up. Even he used to ride that unicorn and walk among the crowd of elves, enjoying the flowers and praises around him. Dance with the beautiful elves and sing the most beautiful songs together... But these are all in the past!
No one knows what happened to the Elf King in the human world—because he didn't tell, no one dared to ask.
Of course, some people also saw something subtle. For example, the two giants of the orcs. Copper Tiger and Rock, who had always been unhappy with the elves, noticed the change in Luoxue immediately: the arrogance was gone!
In the past, Luoxue was proud. Even when he was smiling, that kind of smile was superior! Even with his friendly smile, he seemed to be a noble and kind master. Facing the "gentleness" of the slave land.
But now, Luoxue has changed. He seldom smiled, but the pride in his eyes seemed to be worn away by something and replaced. But it is a kind of faint perseverance!
What's more noteworthy is that both Bronze Tiger and Rock found it: on Luoxue's wrist. The silver thread that had been tied around his wrist was gone!
After Luoxue came back, she immediately shut herself in her tent...
The residence of the elves is far away from the holy mountain. The elves who are born to like beautiful things are tired of the busy construction site under the holy mountain and the sound of hammers ringing day and night—even some elves protested : Even if you have to forge irons day and night, can you make the sound of ding ding dong dong more rhythmic? It's best to follow the rhythm of the music...
This almost absurd protest left the orcs speechless, but it seemed that most of the elves took it for granted.
Of course, after this boring request was rejected, in order to show their pride, the elves moved back dozens of miles, away from the noisy construction site, and chose a quiet place to station.
After the elf king came back, he didn't even meet the elders of the clan, but directly locked himself in the sacrificial hall of the elf god for ten days.
Ten days later, Luoxue walked out of the gate with a tired expression, and his first order was not to meet the elders of the clan who had been waiting for many days, but to invite the leader of the wolf clan, Domines, to come. .
After the wolf king arrived, Luoxue took out a booklet written by himself and handed it to Domines: "This is some human military information recorded in their books and documents when I went to the human world this time. I have recorded some methods of combat and training of human cavalry."
After the Elf King handed this item to the Wolf King, he said meaningfully: "Humans are not as weak as we expected. They are very powerful! There are also many strong people!"
(Especially the one on the snow mountain.) The Elf King secretly added this sentence in his heart.
Unlike most other orcs, Wolf King Dominus has a heartfelt respect for the Elf King!
This is the principle believed by the wolf clan: the strong are respected!
In Domines' view, the Elven King possesses wisdom and great strength, so he should be the leader of course.
Therefore, the wolf clan of Dominus has always been the only group among the orc clan that respects the elves very much—unlike other orc clans who are obsessed with others.
After sending Domines away, the Elf King also admired this busy wolf king. He knew that Domines would make good use of the information he gave him to train his wolf cavalry.
As for Luoxue herself, after seeing off the wolf king, she still didn't meet those elders, but locked herself in the sacrificial hall again.
Several huge green plant rhizomes are rooted in the ground, and countless rhizomes and tendrils extend out, densely intertwined, forming a huge green building—this is a unique magic catalyzed by the magic of the elves A building grown out of a race of plants.
In the green hall, some unknown seeds and buds naturally emit light, so there is no need for any torches here.
The Elf King closed the door, turned and walked in, and sat in the middle of the temple. In front of him was a statue, which was a statue of a god with a longbow on his back. The sharp and beautiful ears symbolized the identity of the statue: Elf God.
In front of Luoxue, on the altar, there were two broken silver threads.
After Luoxue sat down, she raised her eyes to look at the statue, and sighed faintly, as if talking to herself: "God, please tell me and give me some guidance! Where should our path be?"
