Chapter 182 Make Thunder Kingdom Great Again
【Nineteenth year of the coming of God】, August 7th.
High Priest Saliman, who received information from Chief Hu Che of the Fox Tribe, ignored the expansion of the oasis for the Sheep Tribe and hurried back to the Tiger Tribe, but found no trace of the king and chief.
Seeing that the flow of people on the street had reduced by more than half, he frowned and asked a guard who came over: "Is the chief not here?"
"The noble high priest."
The guard knelt down respectfully and saluted, and reported: "The chief learned that the Rabbit tribe was massacred, and two days ago he summoned armies from multiple tribes and went to conquer the new world!"
"Two days ago..."
The high priest narrowed his eyes and asked carefully which tribes were participating.
Eight tribes, 6,000 soldiers, plus the logistics team to transport food and equipment, the total is about 7,500 people.
It sounds like a lot, but you have to know that when fighting against the Kingdom of Storm, the King of Thunder could easily summon an army of about 20,000 to go to war with just one order!
Now that I have filled in all the main members of my Tiger Tribe, I have only managed to gather this few people in total...
Except for the Tiger tribe, the other seven tribes were all small and vassal tribes. They did not dare to disobey the king's orders, so they had to send people to help.
After many years of secret support by the high priest, the dominance of Hulk, the King of Thunder, has been greatly weakened!
Moreover, the high priest imitated the "glorious deeds" of the great witch of the dead back then and secretly drugged King Hulk at the end of July in the 14th year of God's advent. It has been five years now.
"That old Yinbi can poison the swamp dragon in thirty years, and I, Saliman, can bury the Thunder King in five years. It's not a problem!"
The high priest waved away the guards and returned to his residence with a calm face.
He is a fusion beast created by Wang Hui using outside green radish as material. He has more than just the auxiliary ability of "greening the environment".
You know, the green radish juice is actually poisonous!
The intensity of toxicity poses little threat to outsiders and can be concentrated at the microscopic level, making it the most advanced plant-based poison!
The high priest can freely control the toxin content of the plants he prepares, and when improving the living conditions of the tribe, he uses the non-toxic version.
When competing with King Hulk and assisting in training, the poisonous version was used!
In order to avoid being noticed by the suspicious Thunder King, the high priest gradually increased the toxicity from weak to strong.
Today, five years later, Hulk's body has long been eroded by the toxin into his brain, and he is often in a trance and loses his temper.
Just like the emergence of a new world...
If he was still the king who could listen to advice, why would he lead his army in such a rash way?
The high priest returned to his darkroom and wrote down an edict with quick movements.
"King of Thunder, go in peace, I will try my best to make the Kingdom of Thunder great again...
Under the leadership of Lord Death!"
…
【Nineteenth year of the coming of God】, August 14th.
On the bank of the new water, several bunny teams that had been stationed here have been taken to the Fox Tribe by Retuni, leaving only a few beasts gathered here to drink water.
Dust was flying in the distance, the keen beasts fled in panic, and a multi-racial orc army arrived!
Last night, they passed through a dead rabbit tribe and had a fierce battle with many infected rabbits there.
Although they won in the end and burned out the fire, due to insufficient intelligence, many soldiers on our side were also infected, so we had to distance ourselves and shoot them all!
Of the more than 7,500 people who went out for the expedition, nearly half were lost in the battle with the Rabbit tribe, leaving less than 4,000.
King Hulk did not grant his subordinates' request to rest. He led his army to chase a few remaining infected bunnymen to the waterside all night long, but they seemed to have dived into the water and disappeared.
He was about to order the crossing of the water to attack Mushroom Island. Several orc generals knelt down to persuade him. A tired-looking civet general called out:
"Your Majesty! Everyone has been on the road, and the battle last night was also very exhausting. All the ministries are at the end of their strength and can no longer fight continuously!"
"The end of the strong crossbow?"
Upon hearing this, the sturdy Hulk grabbed the civet general by the neck and lifted him up, staring with copper bell-like eyes and shouted:
"My Thunder Army will always be powerful crossbows! Are you trying to curse us to perdition? We deserve to be killed!"
Click!
Ignoring the pleas of everyone around him, Hulk pinched General Civet Cat's throat without hesitation!
The struggling body softened and was thrown into the water.
"Who else wants to stop the march?!"
Hulk looked around with burning eyes, and everyone quickly lowered their heads, obviously not wanting to follow in the footsteps of General Civet Cat.
The highest ranking among the accompanying generals is Baboon Wu, a veteran of the baboon tribe.
He has always liked to shout and stir up trouble, but now that he is tired, injured, and his morale is low, if he is forced to fight in an unfamiliar area, he may be completely wiped out!
Taking advantage of General Civet Cat’s experience, Baboon Wu could only put his advice in a euphemistic way:
"Your Majesty, the shore is still quite far away from those mushroom islands. Please allow us to go to the Dark Kingdom town in the south to grab some boats to cross the water.
As long as the ships are together, the orc army can destroy the civilization on the island and spread the reputation of the Thunder King throughout the new world!"
Hulk narrowed his eyes and looked at Baboon Wu until the latter started to tremble, then he snorted and walked away.
"Then you'd better move quickly, I don't have that much free time to waste here!"
"yes…"
All the generals bowed to see him off and breathed a sigh of relief in unison.
They looked at each other with expressions of lamentation.
If the King of Thunder continues to insist on his own way, I'm afraid they are really going to end!
…
That night, Baboon Wu, who finally led his men to snatch more than a dozen boats from the mercenaries, returned to his tent with a tired look on his face.
When he caught a glimpse of an extra letter on the bed, his expression changed slightly.
After confirming that no one was paying attention around the tent, Baboon Wu cautiously opened the letter and looked at it.
It's the high priest's handwriting!
"The new world is full of crises. We must dissuade His Majesty from withdrawing the troops. If we can try our best to ensure that the army returns safely, support me as the chief of the baboon tribe...this..."
Baboon Wu's eyes flickered, and he would definitely be lying if he said he was not tempted.
The general Hu Che who was at the same time as him, under the arrangement of the high priest, has successfully got rid of his post in the regular army and returned to the tribe to take over as the chief of the Fox tribe and live a good life.
The current chief of the baboon tribe is a confidant of King Hulk, and he is not very old yet. If he really has to go through qualifications, Baboon Wu may not be able to become the chief until he is old!
But judging from the king's irritable momentum, the limit of what Baboon Wu can do is to find a boat to delay him once. If he dares to make excuses to hinder the march tomorrow, he will be the next one to have his neck wrenched in public!
"what to do…"
Baboon Wu scratched his head and thought hard. If only Hu Che was still here, he would definitely be able to come up with a way to get the best of both worlds.
After pondering for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up and his face showed cruelty!
