The camps of the criminal army stretch for dozens of miles, and there are still a steady stream of follow-up groups coming from behind.
On one of the four-wheeled wooden carts, the dwarves sat on the high piles of supplies, but they shouted at the orcs pushing the carts below.
They are born with short legs and are not good at running or traveling long distances. Moreover, the dwarves are the most precious craftsmen in the army of sinners, so they get this comfortable privilege.
Most of the camp of the criminals has been basically completed. The tall wooden walls are made of solid wood, and brackets are reinforced at the back, as if these guys are not invading, but a defensive party.
More supplies were transported from the rear. The sacred mountain that once served as the forefront of the human world's defense line had been mined non-stop for three years under the command of the dwarves. Almost half of the mountain had turned into iron ore and turned into iron ore.
It became the armor on the bodies of the criminal army, the weapons in their hands, and the arrowheads for crossbows...etc.
In addition to having excellent craftsmanship talents, dwarves also have another talent, which is to drill holes! There seems to be no place in the world where they cannot drill holes. Just behind the sinners' army camp, after groups of dwarves arrived,
, these guys, who couldn't tell the difference between men and women based on their appearance, swarmed up, grabbed their strange tools, and started digging at the foot of several hillsides.
These dwarves shouted excitedly, praising how soft the land of this continent in the human world is and how pleasant it is to dig.
Dwarves don't like to live in tents, so they dug large areas of caves under hillside slopes. This work was not done by clumsy orcs, but all the dwarves went out and worked on it themselves.
Judging from the situation, these criminal armies seem to regard this place as a permanent garrison and have no desire to attack...
"How long do we have to wait!"
In the largest tent among the criminal army, the giant tiger orc roared angrily.
As one of the three giants of the orcs, the number of Bronze Tiger tribesmen is not large, even less than the number of the wolf tribe. However, this branch is almost all the most powerful elite orcs.
warrior.
Bronze Tiger walked around in circles in the tent impatiently, gritting his teeth.
On the other hand, another giant, Dominez of the wolf clan, had been looking outside quietly, with a calm and calm expression, as if he was in a fugue.
"When will that elf come out! Do we have to wait here until the end of autumn and then the end of winter?!" The giant rock and the rhinoceros monster also spoke.
It looked at the Bronze Tiger and suddenly whispered: "Or, we can attack first! Now we have come to the human world! In front of us are those despicable and dirty humans! We don't need the power of elves! Why do we orcs
You still have to obey that elf’s orders!”
"Because without Luo Xue, we would not have defeated the Dragon Clan so easily! There is no way to crack the magic circle of the ice field! Without Luo Xue's wisdom, we would still be in our old home. You kill me, I will kill you.
, Killing here and there, for tens of thousands of years! Just to compete for such a pitiful benefit!" Dominez suddenly spoke. Its eyes were still looking outside, and it said coldly: "We need the help of the elves,
Luoxue’s wisdom is even more needed.”
"Dominez, I think you should just cut off your wolf tail, put on two long ears on yourself, and become an elf!" Rock mocked disdainfully: "I'm afraid you have forgotten your own body a long time ago.
The blood flowing in it must be animal blood! Huh, do you think you will become noble just by dealing with those elves all day long and obeying Luo Xue’s words? You stupid wolf!”
Dominez's wolf eyes flashed with a stern look, and he said fiercely: "Rock, if you insult me with such words again, I will fight you!"
"Okay!" The Bronze Tiger's head was slightly more flexible than that stupid cow. The "king"-shaped black patterns on its forehead were twisted together. It glanced at Dominez and said in a consulting tone: "You are
Leader of the wolf clan, you have an obligation to contribute your strength to the orcs. Dominez, don’t forget that before we came, we swore an oath to the statue of the great beast god."
"But I also said that I only obey the orders of Luo Xue." Dominez refused to give in. "Bronze Tiger, unless your wisdom is higher than Luo Xue's, or your strength is stronger than Luo Xue's?"
Bronze Tiger stopped talking. Although it was a ferocious giant of the tiger clan, it also understood that although it had reached the level of a holy warrior, it was far from the opponent of the Elf King. As for brains and wisdom... Orcs have never
No talent in this area.
"I know, I am an orc! But I know better that if we want to succeed and defeat a huge number of humans, we must have a wise leader to command us! And I think only the Elf King has this ability, so
I only listen to Luo Xue's command." Dominez stood up and looked at the other two giants coldly: "You should have heard my words clearly! I was willing to send out wolf cavalry to inspect the terrain before.
The Elf King made the plan a long time ago. I can let my people contribute, and I have completed my task! Then before I get the next order from the Elf King, I will not let my people do it again.
I took a step forward rashly."
After saying that, the leader of the wolf clan stopped looking at the other two giants and walked out of the tent without looking back.
The remaining Rhino and Tiger looked at each other, and Rhino Rock suddenly snorted coldly: "Sometimes, I really want to kill this orc traitor."
"Even if we kill it, we can't command the wolf cavalry." Bronze Tiger suddenly sighed, his tone a little anxious: "On one point, I agree with Luo Xue, that is, to defeat humans, we need to
cavalry."
"But... what on earth is that Luoxue doing! Ever since that terrifying human strongman came, it actually took the initiative to invite that human into the palace that the elves regard as a holy place... Damn it! Even if we went there in the past, they
Don’t even let us get one step closer!”
"How many days have it been... that annoying elf and that human being... I heard that they haven't come out of that palace. Humph..." Bronze Tiger's tone was a little unkind: "This time we set out, those stubborn elves... actually...
None of them are willing to come. They are still guarding their station under the sacred mountain! What are they doing in there with that human?"
"Don't ask me, I've never been able to figure out the minds of those elves." Rock suddenly shrank his neck, his voice a little frustrated: "But that human being is indeed powerful..."
What on earth are Luoxue and Bai Hechou doing?
Nobody knows.
Even the noble elders of the elves don't know.
In the proud Elf clan, Luoxue has long left a deep imprint on the entire clan. Almost all the Elf clan worship this king of unparalleled beauty and unparalleled strength. Every word of the Elf King is worshiped.
Every word, every word, is an imperial edict to the elves!
It can even be said that Luoxue is the most authoritative and prestige king that has ever appeared in the Elf clan in the past 10,000 years! If in previous generations, the elders of the clan could still limit the king's power. But Luoxue, this amazing and unparalleled king
With the king's appearance, even the elders in the clan obeyed the king unconditionally!
Ever since Luoxue and Bai Hechou walked into the elf clan's temple that day, no elf has dared to raise the slightest objection to such a violation of rules and traditions. This is already a very magical thing in itself! You know,
The elves are famous for their stubbornness and respect for tradition!
Therefore, in a few months, the Elf King and the human did not take a step out of the temple! And all the elves and the elders did not dare to leave! The elders built a building around the temple.
My own house. Waiting quietly.
And when the three-year period expired and the dragon's blood finally corroded the magic circle of the ice field, and the army of sinners set off impatiently, the elves, because their king never left the temple and did not issue a word of order, all
The entire elven clan refused to leave!
In the elven settlement at the foot of the Holy Mountain, all the elves are still living their old lives. They don’t even have a trace of doubt, because everyone seems to believe in their hearts: The king must have a reason for doing this! And that reason must be smart and wise.
of!
So they are willing to wait indefinitely for the day when their king leaves the temple! No matter how long they wait!
But... Bai Hechou and Luo Xue have been staying in the temple for several months. What on earth are they doing?!
"Your Highness the Princess, why did you come all the way from the palace to see me?" Du Wei looked at Her Royal Highness Louise with a smile.
The driver's seat in the carriage was empty. The princess had already sent her men away in order to have a secret conversation with Du Wei. At this moment, in the distance around the carriage, several people who looked like palace guards were standing in the distance.
"I encountered something. I don't know how to deal with it. This matter makes me very worried and I am very scared." Princess Louise's tone was very depressed, with anxiety, and there was a hint of pleading in her soft voice:
"Duwei, I can't even see Hussein now. I don't know who to talk to for discussion."
Du Wei sighed, feeling quite guilty.
In order to ensure the secret of the gryphon, he sent Hussein to a secret manor south of the imperial capital. Only the paladin was the guard there, so that Du Wei could rest assured that his secret would not be discovered by any outsiders.
But as a result, Hussein was far away from the imperial capital and had no chance to meet the princess. For a man and woman in love, separation for a long time must be very painful.
"What happened?" Du Wei said cheerfully: "Your Highness, I will definitely try my best to help you. After all, you are Hussein's future wife, and he can be regarded as the one I trust most.
One of my friends."
Louise's face was full of faint fear, but she suddenly closed her mouth. As if the matter was about to come to an end, she suddenly felt wavered, as if she was hesitant to speak.
Seeing this beautiful girl's expression, Du Wei couldn't help but laugh. His eyes subconsciously glanced at the princess's slender waist and abdomen, and he looked like he was exclaiming: "Oh my God! Your Highness, you...
…You don’t have it, do you?”
"What's there?" The princess was stunned for a moment, looking confused.
But then she noticed the hateful look in Du Wei's eyes, and Louise suddenly understood. Her pretty face was suddenly filled with crimson, and she glared at Du Wei fiercely. If she hadn't cared about her manners and etiquette, she would have wanted to go up and strangle Du Wei.
This hateful guy!
"You! What nonsense are you talking about!!" Louise was embarrassed and angry, but quickly said: "What kind of woman do you think I am! Hussein and I haven't..."
At this point, Louise was so embarrassed that she was so angry that she couldn't say a word.
"Oh? Don't you have it yet?" Du Wei smiled evilly.
"Of course not!!" the princess blurted out angrily: "Hussein respects me very much! He is not the kind of man who messes around!"
Poof.
Du Wei couldn't help but laugh. He leaned facelessly on the seat cushion in the carriage and hugged his belly. He sighed in his heart: God... I tried my best to bring you two together. You two are alone and love each other so much.
After life and death, I didn’t marry anyone who wasn’t a Qing, I didn’t marry anyone who wasn’t a King, and I still lived in the same courtyard for a few months. And now I’m still innocent? It seems like I need to teach that stone man Hussein a lesson! Women
It’s not for respect, women are for love!!
"Duwei! You, you bastard!" Duwei's evil eyes, although Princess Louise didn't know what the other person was thinking, she also knew that there must be some unbearable content. She couldn't help but shouted in shame and anger, if it weren't for this
The matter was too important, and she was afraid that she would be so angry that she would kick Du Wei out of the carriage and drive away.
After a pause, the princess clenched her fists tightly and lowered her voice: "This matter is about my brother."
When she said the last two words "brother", a trace of sadness and hesitation flashed in her beautiful eyes.
Du Wei immediately put away his smile and sat up straight, not daring to laugh anymore.
"It happened more than ten days ago..." The princess' eyes were lowered, covered by long eyelashes. There was worry in her eyes: "I occasionally went to where my brother lived, and I wanted to say something to him.
, As a result, I smelled a smell of medicine in his room... I suspected that my brother might be sick. "
Du Wei's heart moved, and he couldn't help but vaguely remember the possibility that he had thought of before... However, he still remained calm on the surface, and said slowly: "The Regent has not practiced martial arts since he was a child. He only likes magic. His body
I'm afraid he is one of the poorest emperors in the past, and if he gets a few minor illnesses on weekdays, it's nothing to worry about."
"No, it's not a minor illness." Princess Louise's voice was not loud, but her tone was very sure!
She shook her head gently, with a trace of struggle in her expression: "When I was taking care of Hussein in the northwest, and in the next few months, I took care of his wounds with my own hands. The old magician in green robe
Sir, you taught me a lot of magic potion formulas. Although I don’t know magic and I don’t understand many principles at all. But after a few months, I have firmly grasped the formulas of some magic potions and the effects of some magic potions.
I know it by heart. I personally prepared many of Hussein's medicines for his injuries. Now, I can identify many medicines without looking at them, just by smelling them."
Du Wei smiled: "Well, that old guy also told me privately that you are actually very talented."
The princess showed no joy at all for this compliment, and still had a worried look on her face: "That day, the smell I smelled in my brother's room, although I couldn't identify anything else, there was one smell in it, and it was me.
It’s so familiar! That taste is... ice berry!"
Du Wei's heart skipped a beat!
"I know that ice berries can relieve pain." Louise sighed sadly: "When I was in the northwest, I was most familiar with this medicine and the first to learn it. But you and the green
The old magician in the robe had warned me not to take too much of this kind of thing. So when I first treated Hussein's injuries, I only gave him a very small dose of ice berries. However, I was in my brother's room.
The smell that he smelled in it was obviously very strong, which means that the amount of ice berries he used must have been a lot."
Du Wei thought for a while, but his voice was still calm: "That doesn't mean anything. In addition to relieving pain, things like ice berries also have other effects."
"Are you talking about using it as a psychedelic drug for fun?" The princess glanced at Du Wei, then shook her head firmly: "I know my brother! He lives a very self-disciplined life. Since he came to power, he has never been greedy for pleasure or psychedelic drugs.
He never takes drugs like that!"
"Perhaps the magician who treated him and prepared medicine was too mediocre and used the wrong weight." Du Wei still carefully searched for other possibilities.
"My brother is the regent. With his status, he can decide the medicine he uses. There is only one person in the palace, the chief magician." Louise shook her head: "Although I don't understand magic, I also know that as the chief magician
, my ability is not too bad."
Then, she sighed faintly: "I didn't think much about it at the time. I just asked him casually if he was not feeling well. There was a smell of medicine in the room, and my brother's reaction at that time was not surprising. He just said that he didn't feel well.
, caught a cold... But these words revealed a flaw. He thought I was the kind of person who didn't know anything about magic potions, but he didn't expect that I had learned a lot in the northwest for a few months. Although he concealed it
It’s very good, but I know that if you catch a cold, you won’t be able to use ice berries anyway!”
"Well, it's not necessary." Du Wei's tone gradually became serious.
"I didn't dare to ask him any more questions, but in the next few days, I went to look for him consciously. Every time I would smell a faint smell in his study or his room. Others might not be able to smell it.
came out. But I remembered it firmly. In other words, he has not stopped taking ice berries for so many days!"
Du Wei suddenly interrupted Princess Louise: "But more than ten days ago, I also went to the palace and saw the regent in the study. There was no one in his room at that time..."
Du Wei wanted to express that if there was that kind of smell, it would be absolutely impossible for him not to smell it. But then he suddenly remembered something:
It seemed that when I went to see the Prince Regent that day, all the windows in his study were open, and there was still strong-smelling incense burning!
Then, there is only one answer: the regent knew that he was very accomplished in magic potions, so he deliberately... concealed himself?!
"I have been a little worried in my heart those days, so I couldn't help but privately asked some familiar guards near the palace where he lived about my brother's recent situation. I didn't get any questions from the guards' mouths, and they didn't notice anything.
.But just when I was about to dispel my doubts, I unexpectedly learned something from a guard."
Louise's voice suddenly trembled: "The guard told me casually that my brother has been in a bad mood recently. Everyone is very nervous around him, because my brother has executed three or four people for some very small reasons a few days ago.
He is his personal attendant...so, I think..."
Speaking of this, Louise suddenly couldn't bear it and closed her mouth.
Du Wei sighed and said slowly: "So, you think, maybe he was the regent's personal attendant, and he accidentally discovered something, so he was killed by your brother to silence him, right? But you are not willing to accept that your brother wanted to silence him.
As for killing people, so... I can understand your mood."
Louise's eyes suddenly turned red, as if she was about to cry, and she said in a trembling voice: "I know, I am not a smart girl, but, being in the royal family, I still know some basic things... My brother suddenly took the throne
I already had some doubts about the matter of leaving it to little Charlie, but now that I know that my brother's body is very likely...possible...the combination of these things makes me no longer doubtful."
She looked at Du Wei, pleading in her tone: "Du Wei, I don't know what to do about this matter. These things have been tormenting me these days, and I don't know who to talk to. Moreover, if this matter
If it is true, then this secret cannot be leaked out casually! I...I...I thought about it, and since I can't find Hussein, I can only come to you first."
Du Wei nodded and suddenly said: "Your Highness, you... trust me so much? I mean, if this thing is true, then this secret must not be leaked! Especially at this time!"
"I trust you!" Louise said slowly: "Hussein said that you are the person he trusts most. He trusts you. So, I am his woman, and I trust you too!"
Before Duwei got off the carriage, he warned Louise not to say anything or do anything about this matter, and not to take any action until the matter was clear.
As for Princess Louise, after she told Du Wei about this matter, she seemed to have been relieved of a huge burden. The burden that had been tormenting her for many days was transferred to Du Wei, and the girl felt much more relaxed.
After sending Miss Osie into the carriage. After leaving with Princess Louise, Duwei turned around, the smile on his face disappearing bit by bit.
His expression became extremely gloomy!
"I heard from the humans we captured that it's August in the human calendar now...and it's the warmest month of the year." Bronze Tiger looked at the rhinoceros: "So, if we continue to wait, the weather will
It will get colder and colder. Food will be consumed too quickly."
"What do you mean?" Rhino's eyes were shining.
"That human defense line... they have obviously withdrawn all their resources to the south. As long as we can break through this line of defense first and rush to the south, we will have everything we need! Food, weapons, land! Here we go!
At that time, we no longer need to listen to the orders of those elves! Rush to the south, seize back the land of our ancestors, and rebuild our orc kingdom!"
"Very good." Rhino stood up and clapped his paws hard with Bronze Tiger: "No wait, let's attack first!!"
The twenty days set by General Rostock and his subordinates have not yet ended. Finally, the enemies below the city took action first!
On this morning, the imperial soldiers guarding the city wall discovered something strange in the enemy camp in the distance!
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning fell, among the large wooden walls in the distance, the huge wooden hanging door suddenly fell down!
Then, a group of fierce cattle warriors ran out of the camp gate. They grabbed the black and huge horns in their hands, puffed up their cheeks, and blew hard!
Amidst the loud sound of horns, a low roar like muffled thunder came from the army of sinners, and then, several black torrents rushed out of those hanging doors!
Black iron armor. Long knives with a cold light! Teams of orc monsters quickly formed a formation in the wilderness in the distance. Black square arrays were quickly arranged one by one!
At this time, tall catapults were pushed out from the camp gate! Those catapults made of huge wood had been wrapped with layers of thick animal skins and installed with pushable wheels on the lower end.
Pulleys, and under each catapult, there are dozens of orcs covered in the strongest and heaviest armor!
In the cold weather of the morning, those orcs puffed hot air from their mouths and shouted loudly, struggling to push the catapult outside the camp gate!
At this time, in the dark orc phalanx, a crude and huge animal skin flag was raised high!
Seeing that flag, countless orcs let out roars and shouts that reached the sky. They beat their chests hard and hit their shields with the swords in their hands, making the sound soar to the sky!!
"They're attacking! They're going to attack!!"
The officers on the city wall immediately turned around and shouted at the top of their lungs: "Enemy attack!! Enemy attack!! Everyone get on the city wall!!!"
On this city wall, the top general on duty today was Milo. He stepped on the city stamp, looked coldly at the enemy in the distance, then pulled out his long sword and raised it high, using his powerful and powerful words.
The voice roared: "Prepare to fight!! Soldiers! Fight for the Empire!!"
His metal armor reflected light in the sun, and the first ray of sunlight shone on the top of the city and fell on him. Under the general's majestic order, his whole body was glowing with sunlight!
Under the city wall, groups of heavily armed imperial soldiers ran up from the female wall, formed a tight formation, and held their weapons tightly!
"Fight for the Empire!!" General Milo roared loudly.
"Fight for the Empire!!" On the city wall, countless humans made the same voice!!
