Chapter 279 The Orcs in the Forest

Hengduan Mountains

The orc king, Thorger, has returned from the north, and he also brought back a small dragon, which is used to contact Fix Island.

He already knew that the fleet had set off from Fix Island and was going all the way south. It was estimated that in five or six days, they would arrive at the agreed South China Sea Cape.

That's great news, of course, but Thorger finds himself and his tribe a big challenge.

Undead!

The ordinary undead were not to be feared. The news reported by the scouts said that those fools would not search their current gathering place for at least half a month. It was the gargoyles flying in the sky from time to time that put the orcs in trouble.

Gargoyles are high-level undead. Although they can't speak, they are not stupid. They have been patrolling the dense forest. If they are found by the gargoyle, the orcs will either move immediately or try their best to kill the gargoyle.

The current orc tribe has more than 70,000 people, half of whom are women and children. It is unrealistic to move quickly, so there is only one way to go, and that is to kill the gargoyles.

But the gargoyle is too fast and powerful, even Thorger can't guarantee that he can keep the gargoyle every time.

In order to avoid this group of dogs, the orcs had to shrink under the dense forest, not daring to light a fire, not daring to speak loudly, not to mention walking around, and not even hunting, because the screams and bloody smell of their prey were overwhelming. May attract gargoyles.

Then, food becomes a problem.

At the beginning, there were orc warriors who killed human women to satisfy their hunger. Although the orc king had a clear order to respect the mother of the child, but in this difficult time, the nature of the barbaric orcs cannot be changed.

When Thorge heard this, he was furious immediately. In front of all the orc warriors, he split the orc warrior who disobeyed his order in half. Among the orc warriors who were killed, even one of his confidants was included. With such a harsh method, coupled with the majesty of the beast king, it is possible to stop this momentum.

The bodies of the slain orcs were also buried instead of being eaten as usual. Although the orc warriors wanted to do this very much, Thorge strictly forbade it.

Thorger did it for a reason.

This time, he went north to the Fire Lion City of the Principality of Lehman, and personally experienced the prosperity of the human city. He also put down all his dignity and humbly asked his former enemies for help, which made him feel deeply.

Why? Can a weak human race build such a splendid city?

Why? His powerful tribe can only hide in the deep mountains and old forests and live like wild animals?

Walking all the way, he thought all the way, and if he realized something in his heart, he had a personal experience of the word barbaric that the human race kept saying. Compared with the human race, they are indeed very barbaric, and the most terrifying thing is that they don't respect themselves. The people of the clan, whoever dies, will be eaten.

This was a last resort in the original dark plane, because there was a serious shortage of food there, and they couldn't bear the slightest waste, but here, in this dense forest, they have not reached the final stage.

Thorge decided to give up the bad habit of cannibalism among his people.

However, food is still a problem, what to do?

The orcs began to eat leaves, bark, grass roots, worms, earthworms, as long as they were not poisonous and could be stuffed into their mouths, they would eat anything. Not only did they eat it, but they also forced the human women to eat it too, and everyone ate it!

They moved cautiously towards the cape of the South China Sea, scraping the ground three feet along the way, just like locusts, planing out all the edible things along the way.

Life was extremely difficult, extremely difficult, and time passed very slowly. In this kind of torment, three days passed slowly.

The orc tribe was less than 40 kilometers away from the cape of the South China Sea. If they had been on their way, they would probably arrive tonight.

But they had to rest for a while, because everyone was tired, even the mighty orc warriors were a little bit overwhelmed.

Thorge was also exhausted. He was sitting on the root of a big tree, holding a leaf in his hand. There were more than a dozen white and fat worms wrapped in the leaf. The ones that come out are each palm-length, thick as a thumb, and taste pretty good.

Speaking of his human wife, well, from the perspective of the human race, she is definitely not beautiful, but she is tall and strong, with a height of 1.85 meters, and she has a big waist and a round waist.

In the eyes of the orcs, only such a woman can give birth to the strongest warriors, so this human woman can barely be called beautiful.

Solge ate a small half of the dozen or so worms, and passed the rest to his wife: "I'm full, you can eat it."

"Your Majesty, I'm not hungry." The woman shook her head, she was unkempt and haggard.

It is said that this woman was born in a noble family. Of course, her family has been destroyed. It was not the orcs who did it, but the undead. This woman escaped alone, and was captured by the orcs. Kai, who also injured several orc warriors, is a strong woman.

Well, a commoner family of the human race cannot raise such a strong person, so Thorge believes that his wife is of noble origin. He lowered his head and glanced at the woman's slightly swollen belly. Inside was his child. He couldn't be hungry, so he sternly said, "Eat as soon as I tell you!"

The woman finally took the worm. She ate it very hard, wrapped it in leaves, and almost swallowed it by force.

Thorge realized that he felt a little distressed, recalling the food he ate in the Principality of Lehman, especially the glass of fine wine he drank in the mansion, presumably those are the things that nobles eat, and now this woman follows him, eating such disgusting food The worms really hurt her.

He stretched out his hand to straighten the messy hair on the sideburns of his human wife, and comforted softly: "Persist for a few more days, and it will be fine when we get on the boat."

The woman's body froze, and then she responded softly: "Yes."

At this time, the scouts came to report: "Your Majesty, there is no way to go ahead."

Thorger frowned: "How?"

The scout had a bitter face: "The gargoyle patrols on the coastline are very intensive, one batch every half an hour. With so many of us passing by, there is no way to hide our tracks."

"This group of damned!" Thorger gritted his teeth. Little Jinglong sent news that the fleet will probably arrive at noon tomorrow, this is their only hope of escape, and they must rush to the cape before then.

"Have you found the location of the undead army?" Thorger asked again.

"I found it. It's only 150 kilometers away from us, and it's less than 100 kilometers away from the cape. If the gargoyles find us, with their speed, they can come here in half a day!" the scout said.

"Half a day? How many people are there?"

"There are too many ordinary undead, and there are at least 30,000 high-level undead!" The scout said, his face showing obvious despair.

Thirty thousand high-level undead, countless ordinary undead, and their tribe has not had enough food for many days, does not have much energy, and carries so many burdens. If they are really blocked by them, the only end is that the whole tribe will be wiped out!

Sorge was silent for a long time. Beside him, an orc who had just become a high priest said, "Your Majesty, the soldiers are all hungry."

food? Where does the food come from? The answer is self-evident, half-orc children can't eat, this is their hope for the future, but the human women in the team don't need so many.

Thorger remained silent.

Another orc confidant named Antler said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you can't fight by eating tree roots and grass leaves. You have to eat meat."

Thorger remained silent.

This confidant named Antler thought he had acquiesced, and got up to do it.

"No!" Thorge finally spoke, his voice was not heavy, but it revealed an unshakable will.

"Your Majesty!" Antler urged with a raised voice.

Sorge looked at him and asked, "We killed these human women and ate their meat. Do you think the human fleet will let us board?"

Antlers was speechless for a moment.

The high priest said: "Yes, they will, they need our strength, since they are here, they will never give up on us just because we killed a few human women."

"Oh?" Thorge narrowed his eyes and looked at the new high priest: "Who do you think is coming with the boat this time? It's Luo Lin, the human warrior from Vendome. I'm sure, if we If we do it, even if he let us board the ship, he will definitely retaliate against our family ten times in the future, can you take this responsibility?"

The high priest's face turned pale, and it took a long time before he said: "Then what should we do?"

"I will take the warriors to hunt. There are at least 30 elephants in the group of elephants we saw on the road. I will kill them all. Their meat is enough to feed each of our warriors."

Now is the last moment. They are facing such a desperate situation, and they don't care whether they will be discovered by the gargoyles. When they are full, they will fight the group of undead!

Thorge is the king of orcs, a martial saint, and he is unparalleled in the orc clan. Since he made such a decision, everyone obeyed.

Just do it, and in a short while, a hunting team of 500 people was organized, led by Sorge, and rushed towards the elephant group that he had encountered before.

This way, Sorge is very careful. Although there are more than 30 elephants, although they are huge, they are not a problem at all for Sorge. He can kill them all when he rushes in alone. One, at the same time to carry the meat.

The elephant herd's target is huge and very obvious, and Sorge has already prepared for it, and let the scouts watch it early in the morning, so there is no need to look for it at all, just go all the way.

Solger led the soldiers in no rush to attack. They waited for the patrolling gargoyles to pass before they started to attack.

They had a good plan. Some of the orcs stood guard around the elephant herd, carrying giant crossbows, which were used to deal with the gargoyles. In case of any situation, they had to shoot down the gargoyles with all their strength.

Perhaps it was God of War's favor, the hunting went very smoothly, until all the elephants were killed and the gargoyles did not appear.

Thirty elephants, except for a few small elephants, were all like a mountain of meat. Five hundred orc warriors threw themselves on the elephants and drank the elephant blood until they were full, and then Carry these mountains of meat and return to camp.

After arriving at the camp, the meat was divided immediately. Every orc warrior was given at least two catties of meat, and the strong wild beasts got more, five catties each.

The orcs knew that a big battle was imminent, and they were all silent, stuffing meat into their mouths with one hand, and clutching their weapons tightly with the other.

In the dense forest, a bloody and murderous atmosphere spread.

Soon, the more than 30 elephants were all turned into broken bones, eaten up by the orc warriors, not even the internal organs and bone marrow remained.

Sorge also ate a full stomach. As the leader of the orcs, he ate an entire elephant trunk and the heart of the leader of the elephant herd. The meat was a bit thick and the skin was tough, but he ate with relish and his stomach was full. The previous fatigue was swept away, and my whole body was full of strength.

At this time, it was already night, and Sorge gave an order: "Rest in the middle of the night and set off in the early morning!"

…………

At almost the same moment, Undead Marshal Innocent also issued an order: "Let's go, the cape of the South China Sea!"

He found no sign of orcs, but his gargoyles had been patrolling the coastline, so he knew the terrain of the South Sea coast well.

In this area, only the cape of the South China Sea can be used to moor large ships, except here, the next natural port is 300 kilometers away.

And the gargoyle, who was staring at the human fleet from a distance, also sent news that the fleet was approaching the cape.

Therefore, Innocent bet that the cape of the South China Sea is the boarding point for the orcs!
