The northwest corner of the orc camp, was a special area of the encampment. This area was piled with all kinds of miscellaneous objects, and was close to where the orcs excreted, the stench was overwhelming, and flies and insects were buzzing about.
In even more secluded corners, there were a few gigantic iron cages, in which one could vaguely see that some humans were imprisoned.
Two orc guards walked over.
They glanced at the human guard nearby and coldly said, “Guan Qi!”
“Uh, sirs, how may I serve you? Why bother yourselves to come in person?” The human attending to the cages hastily stood up from his seat, his face full of obsequiousness.
The Orcs gave Guan Qi a look of disdain.
When they were attacking the City of Undead, they discovered several human territories along the way and conveniently occupied and captured them.
These humans were really ununited.
Appointing this Guan Qi as a slave handler, he kept the other humans in check. Even more so, to please the Orcs, he was even more ruthless than they were. “The commander wants three people as offerings. Pick three who are lame and cannot work,” the orc spoke solemnly.
Clunk!
Upon hearing the orc’s words, a small panic ensued inside the iron cages. Nobody wanted to be this offering, even if their current existence was worse than a dog’s.
“Understood, sir. I know who can work and who’s handicapped, I’ll get them for you immediately.” Guan Qi loudly assured them, proving his effectiveness in front of the Orcs.
His wooden stick knocked against the metal bars, making a grating noise.
“Qi Ming, you, and you, all come out. Stop pretending to be dead,” Guan Qi pointed out three people.
For the other two people,he didn’t even know their names.
Actually, the human conditions inside the cages were not too bad, those that bore disabilities had been killed and their bodies discarded in the wilds long ago.
Guan Qi’s method of selection was also very simple; if he didn’t like them and had no use for them, they were immediately disposed of.
“Brother Guan, we come from the same city, don’t choose me please,” the man named Qi Ming pleaded loudly.
“If not you, then who? Stop fucking dawdling.” Guan Qi cursed, then replaced his coarse words with an obsequious smile, “Sir, these three are weak unable to work properly, they’ve been lazy these past days, let it be them.”
“Bullshit, Guan Qi! When did I ever slack off?” one person cursed furiously.
The Orcs didn’t care for such matters, they opened the iron cage, dragged the three men out, broke their limbs, and dragged them away, just like dead dogs, in the direction where Amiri was waiting.
The Orcs left, and Guan Qi chuckled coldly, “See that? If anyone dares to disobey me in the future, I have plenty of ways to kill you.”
As Guan Qi opened the Book of Lords, he looked at the comments discussing Fang Hao in the chat channel inside, snorted and said, “Pah! So-called Fang Hao big shot, am I any less formidable than him? Just once I build up a connection with these Orcs, the regional first place will be mine.”
Three humans who had their limbs broken were dragged in front of Amiri.
At this moment, beneath the Gnoll’s corpse, a complicated pattern of Magic Array had formed.
“Commander, the people are here,” an Orc soldier said.
The commander looked at the three individuals who were just barely clinging on to life. “Bleed them!”
The orcs slit the throats of the three people and threw them into the Magic Array.
Fresh blood stained the ground dark red, following the Magic Array to the dead body of the Gnoll.
Soon, changes started to occur in the Gnoll’s corpse. The bloated body gradually recovered, and the pale skin began to redden.
Sigh!
Suddenly, the Gnoll’s corpse sat up, and its eyes began to stir.
“Where am I?” The Gnoll asked.
“You are already dead. Tell me, what did you see last? I can help you get revenge.” Amiri looked at the reanimated Gnoll and calmly spoke.
“Right, I was killed by that human.” The Gnoll spoke.
“You don’t have much time, tell me what happened. This is your last chance.” Amiri again emphasized to him what was important.
“It was a human who could manipulate the Undead. He attacked and occupied my village, then killed me, allowing an undead wandering spirit to take over my body…”.
The Gnoll recounted the scenes before its death, quickly telling the Orc before it
Just as it finished speaking.
Boom!
A dull sound rang out, and the Gnoll’s corpse suddenly burst open, scattering bits of flesh and bone.
“Sir, it seems the other side is afraid and may know our plan already.” An Orc wiped the splattered flesh from his face and spoke.
Amiri frowned and said, “It doesn’t matter. The Gnoll just said that the Undead army is composed of around 50,000, and their rank isn’t high. Once they learn that we have an army of 300,000 Orcs, they’ll probably be scared out of their wits and considering running away with their troops.”
“Hahaha! The commander is right, a bunch of low-ranking undead, they can only deal with those small villages,” The Orc soldiers agreed.
According to the Gnoll’s introduction just now.
There are over 50,000 undead soldiers in the human territory, but most are low-tier units.
They brought along 300,000 warriors from the Mountain of Cold Wind, once the enemy hears this news, they will definitely hurry and flee, might even allow them to take over an empty city, which is even better.
If they can occupy a city without the loss of any troops, that is also a commendation.
“Alright, rest assured, that possessed undead is just a low-ranking one. Probably already escaped under the cover of the night.” Amiri said.
“Yes, sir.” The Orcs dispersed, besides the guards, everyone else returned to their rooms to rest.
The next day dawned, and the sky started to lighten, pulling open a curtain of pale blue.
Fang Hao was sleeping soundly, soft calls came from beside his ear.
“Sir? Sir… Please wake up,” A soft feminine voice murmuring beside his ear.
Fang Hao’s bleary eyes cracked open slightly.
He thought it was Eira waking himself up, but saw a transparent soul body hovering beside the bed, staring earnestly at him.
“Holy shit!” Fang Hao instantly became alert.
Just before he bashed the head with Starfire beside the bed, he realized it was Little You, the wandering spirit who he hadn’t seen in a few days.
Sigh!
He exhaled a breath and exasperatedly said, “Little You, you scared me!”
“Sir, I didn’t mean to scare you,” Little You spoke somewhat anxiously.
Wandering spirits didn’t need to sleep, but it knew that it must have given Fang Hao a big fright.
“No matter, is there any new information?” Fang Hao asked directly after he got out of bed and dressed.
Today was the day of the Orc attack, he had to be fully prepared.
“Sir, I’ve investigated the route of the Orc attack and the number of troops,” Little You replied.
Fang Hao opened the map on the Book of Lords, with Little You pointing out details at the side.
The Orc’s mobilization this time was a fully prepared endeavor.
From the Mountain of Cold Wind all the way here, not only were the Orc tribes along the way gathered, they were forced to join the army, and they also occupied several human territories.
The commander of the army was called Amiri, a blue hero, with considerable combat command experience.
He belonged to the Skullcrusher Tribe, a soldier who led the army all year round.
“Sir, as per the original plan, they will rendezvous with a hero named Bronze Bull over here, then they will advance along this route, right up until they reach the city to launch their attack.” Little You gestured along the route with her hand, showing the rough course.
Fang Hao nodded, coldly laughed and said, “Bronze Bull, they won’t see, but we can certainly find them..”
