Chapter 509: another big enemy

【Steel, guns and the industrial party across the world】【】

"How scary would the orcs be?"

Both Aldrich and Jarvi were somewhat puzzled by Macdonald's statement.

For people living in the central area of ​​human civilization, they both fear and despise orcs. The fear is because of the image of the orcs in the public perception-a strange appearance that is very different from humans, a strong body with infinite strength, and unreasonable The brutal character and predatory bandit culture, the latter two are also the reasons why humans despise them.

In addition, although the orcs were strong individually, their race was scattered. It was very common for tribes on the prairie to separate and reunite. When the last old chief died, it was often the time when his tribe fell apart. This led to the fact that the orcs were able to organize a small and capable team to rush into the human territory to burn, kill and loot, but they could only choose to flee when facing the human army that came to crusade.

Moreover, their weapon-making technology is quite backward. Ordinary orcs can only use weapons made of bones, wood, and stone. If they are lucky enough to **** a metal weapon or armor, they can be used as family heirlooms. It takes the lives of three to five orc soldiers to kill a well-armed human soldier—real soldiers here, not militiamen who just put down their hoes.

However, in the thousands of years of disputes between humans and beasts, these alien races did pose a major threat to humans several times. When a king with a strong appeal appeared among them, the tribes that had previously fought with each other would form an alliance. Artisans who will plunder humans as slaves to make up for their own technical deficiencies, and will also follow the example of human countries to build large armies. The power of the orcs even penetrated into the current human territory when they were strong.

But once they were beaten back to the prairie, they would immediately degenerate into their pre-powerful appearance. The original tribal alliance fell apart, fighting each other for the few living resources on the prairie.

The decline of a human country often has a process ranging from a hundred years to a few decades, while the decline of orcs often falls from the peak to the bottom within ten years.

In general, orcs have been at a disadvantage in the thousands of years of struggle with humans, with only occasional moments of high light.

This is why the two bachelors, Aldrich and Yalvi, did not connect the prophecy with the orcs.

But MacDonald, who is a high-ranking officer in the imperial army, will not do this. Compared with the two bachelors who like esoteric knowledge, he pays more attention to reality and the present.

"The caravan that went to the grassland brought us some information."

Now MacDonald became the one who explained, and the two White Tower Maesters became the listeners.

"As I said just now, the Zarg clan has established a new king account. This time they are not only plundering human craftsmen, but also doing some incredible things."

"An incredible thing?"

"The orcs are creating their own language, not only that, they seem to be imitating the human country and setting up various court officials."

Hearing Macdonald's story, Aldrich and Jarvi looked at each other, and then laughed at the same time.

"Hahaha! This... this is really unheard of."

MacDonald couldn't help being a little ashamed and angry seeing the two maesters so contemptuous of the orcs he thought should be treated with caution.

He stretched out his right hand and banged on the table in front of him with the knuckles of his index finger.

"You two, there is a price to be paid for underestimating an opponent, not to mention an opponent who once posed a major threat to mankind. Compared with the battle between humans and demons that is passed down by word of mouth and is difficult to verify, the invasion of orcs is actually written in the history books. superior."

"We are sorry, Mr MacDonald."

The two bachelors tried their best to hold back their laughter, and one of them, Bachelor Yarvi, said, "It's just that in my mind, when I think of a group of orc men wrapped in animal fur learning to count with their fingers, I find it very funny."

"Okay, that is indeed a very funny scene, but don't forget that our human ancestors also started from being wrapped in animal fur. As a bachelor, you should know this better than me."

Macdonald said displeasedly: "The reality is that the watchman legion that the Aldo Kingdom suppressed the orcs for hundreds of years has not gone to the grassland to burn the orcs' pasture for several years. They can only hide in the Nerodan Valley, watching the orcs Cows and horses gallop freely on the grassland. It is said that those oasis countries in the desert have begun to pay more and more attention to the opinions from the grassland, and the influence of the king's account is no longer confined to the traditional territory of the orcs."

"My Healing Game"

"Hmm!" Hearing what MacDonald told the orcs, Aldrich frowned and stroked his beard, feeling that he had really underestimated him just now.

"The... opinion of the prairie? Did I hear correctly?"

The old marshal frowned and said: "You heard me right. In fact, on the surface, the Wang Zhang of this generation is not as belligerent as before. The Wang Zhang will send envoys to the human countries near the grassland to discuss trade matters. Instead of directly hitting the door to rob like before, even if they want to attack and plunder the human territory, they will come up with a lot of high-sounding reasons, such as messengers being humiliated and robbed. Afternoon ~www.readwn.com~ It’s incredible to think about it. Moreover, the human caravans entering the grassland are well protected, and they don’t have to worry about being robbed all the time like before. According to the merchants, they I also met human officials in important positions in the king's tent, of course they work for the orcs, presumably the two great scholars have never seen such a strange scene in the book, right?"

"As things go on like this, the rulers of the oasis countries actually began to think that the orcs can be communicated with. They are so naive and naive. They are so ignorant that they can't see through the disguise of these grassland barbarians."

Macdonald said a lot in one breath.

"It's really incredible, why is it becoming more and more like a human country?"

Aldridge stroked his beard, surprised.

"Indeed." His apprentice Yalvi said, "Such orcs also have the potential to become the foreboding enemy of mankind. These barbarians can grow out of the grassland in ten years, and they can't be killed or driven out. , The living habits on the prairie make them natural cavalry and hunters, if they gain the organizational ability of the human kingdoms, it can also be called a huge disaster."

"I suddenly thought of a worse possibility."

The expression on Aldrich's face was extremely ugly.

"What's possible?" Yarvi and MacDonald looked at him at the same time.

"What if the demons and orcs come together?"

Aldridge had a bitter smile on his face.
