When the military strength is obviously at a disadvantage, it is natural to consider taking advantage of the geographical advantages that the locals know well.
Sarlayan has had the experience of fighting in a cave before, and by chance, a small collapse occurred due to the excessive noise from the battle.
Therefore, when Sarlayan heard that Orox personally led a small number of elites to defend the cave, he quickly guessed the Mok'Nassar clan's plan - to deliberately collapse the cave and seal this natural tunnel to the outside world. .
However, not all cave structures are as loose as those that Sarlayan has encountered before.
Due to their mixed ogre blood, the number of shamans in the Mok'Nathal clan is small.
It is self-evidently difficult to collapse a structurally stable cave with brute force alone.
When Sarlayan and Jaina rushed to the entrance of the cave, several Mok'Nathal hunters and their animal companions were sitting on the ground panting to catch their breath. They could also be seen smashing out objects with blunt objects next to the entrance of the cave. Mark of.
"...So primitive? Where is your shaman?"
Facing the questions from these two strangers, the group of Mok'Nassar people looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. One of the female hunters gave the answer with a wry smile.
"There are only a few shamans in my tribe. In order to ensure the stability of the northern defense line, the chief transferred them all, leaving only two shamans to follow."
The female hunter pointed to several corpses outside the cave: "The Thunder God clan is not stupid. They had already guessed that we would use the structure of the cave to make a fuss, and arranged a small group of thieves to sneak in in advance. The result... you saw it. "
Sarlayan and Jaina looked surprised at the same time. In this kind of war, the routine of you taking action and me breaking it is completely normal.
Now it seems that the Thunder God clan is better prepared and has the upper hand.
After quickly telling Jaina his impromptu plan through the soul link channel, Sarlayan patiently waited outside the cave and waited for the opportunity.
Jaina lived up to Sharlayan's expectations, and she successfully used precise teleportation to bring out all the elite Mok'Nathal, headed by Orlox.
Sharlayan cooperated with the tacit understanding and at the same time activated the power of the earth that became more and more skillful, triggering a small-scale earthquake centered on this cave.
When the confused Thunder God clan in the cave were still thinking about whether to advance or retreat, Sarlayan's actions helped them make a third choice in advance besides advancing and retreating.
die.
Under the influence of a small-scale strong earthquake, the cave, which had a relatively solid structure, collapsed as expected.
Under the stunned gaze of Garm on the other side of the cave entrance, the passage in the cave collapsed in a very short period of time, and was tightly sealed from the inside out by large and small falling rocks.
That's not all, the earthquake also triggered a landslide.
The Thor orcs who were guarding near the entrance of the cave ran away in panic when they saw the solids and soil rolling down the hillside.
Even so, about 30% of the Thor Beastmen who did not react in time were buried in the earth by the fury of nature.
Sarlayan left Jaina behind to explain the situation to Lyorox, who was full of questions. He transformed into a sharp-tailed swift and quickly took off to investigate the situation on the other side of the mountain.
"That is……"
A large amount of dust suddenly appeared behind the chaotic Thunder God clan. This was not caused by Sharlayan.
Sarlayan glanced thoughtfully at the Bloodmaul Ogres who were attacking with all their strength at the northern intersection.
When he arrived at Moknasa Village before, Sarlayan asked questions to the hunters staying in the village based on the intelligence he detected from the air.
"Both the Thundergod Clan and the Bloodmaul Clan have sent their main forces to participate in this siege. So... where are the Blade Tower Ogres? Didn't they agree that the three clans would cooperate to annihilate Mok'Nassa?"
But now, without Salayan taking the initiative to find the solution, the answer emerged automatically.
"The Blade Tower Ogre actually has the wisdom to drive away wolves and devour tigers, while hiding behind and taking advantage of it?"
There was a look of thought in Sarlayan's eyes: "This doesn't seem like a plan that the Tiehanhan ogre could come up with. Could it be that... there are still two-headed ogres in the Blade Tower clan?"
Ordinary ogres have low intelligence, and it is unrealistic to expect them to make suggestions.
A misunderstanding needs to be clarified here. Many people think that the two-headed ogre can only be catalyzed by infusing arcane power through the Altar of Storms, but this is not the case.
Among the ogre tribe, there is a chance that a two-headed ogre will be born naturally, but this chance is very low.
Two-headed ogres are born with a strong affinity for arcane magic, and their wisdom is much higher than that of their naive brethren.
With the fall of the Golia Empire, the ogres lost the ability to mass-produce two-headed ogres, but naturally born two-headed ogres will still be born normally, but the probability is very low.
Judging from the overly direct action pattern of the Bloodmaul Ogres, there should be no two-headed Ogres hiding behind their backs to make plans among their tribe.
And the Blade Tower Ogre...
Even if Sarlayan and Jaina don't interfere, there is a high probability that Orox will use self-sacrifice like the demon's disintegration method to forcibly stimulate the life potential and collapse the cave.
In other words, it is a high probability that the Thunder God Clan's attack will be blocked.
If the Thor clan, whose morale is low at this time, is suddenly attacked from behind...
"Ha~" Sarlayan, who wanted to understand everything, laughed and shook his head: "What a plastic alliance, Dota Ogre? I remember it."
Although the Thunder God Clan lost a lot of people in the cave, the rest and recuperation in the Blade's Edge Mountains in the past few years has allowed the population of the Thunder God Orcs, who have a very high fertility rate, to grow rapidly.
As long as the heavily guarded hometown is not taken away, it is still impossible for the Blade Tower Ogre to succeed in a battle.
Besides, Garm was not a vegetarian. He was already full of anger and wanted to find someone to vent to.
The Dota Ogre's plan is well made, but the specific direction of the situation depends on whether the executor's ability is up to standard.
Through this small war to encircle and suppress Mok'Nasar, Sarlayan, who watched calmly, basically figured out the advantages and disadvantages of the three major forces.
In terms of combat power alone, the Bloodmaul Ogre is undoubtedly the strongest.
There is a high probability that there are two-headed ogres sitting in the rear to make suggestions. The Blade Tower ogres like to play dirty tricks. I guess this is not the first time that they have plotted against the Thunder God Clan and the Bloodmaul Clan.
The Thunder God Clan is not top-notch in terms of force and strategy, but thanks to the fact that the veterans brought out by Fenris himself were not seriously damaged in the battle with the Alliance, their overall quality is quite good.
Excluding the Moknasa clan, which has no intention of competing for hegemony and has always stayed in a corner, the three major forces each have their own advantages and disadvantages. It is not surprising that the situation in Blade's Edge Mountain has reached a stalemate.
As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole stalks behind.
So the question is, who is the cicada? Who is Mantis? Who is Oriole?
After channeling several ghost familiars to stay in the sky to observe the situation, Sarlayan folded his wings and landed on the ground again.
The extremely talented Gianna was good at everything but unable to provide treatment.
It's not that Jaina doesn't have the talent to learn healing spells.
After all, she is still very young and is still in the period of rapid growth. All her energy is focused on the major project of arcana. It is impossible for her to learn everything by analogy like Antonidas and Medivh.
When Jaina breaks through and becomes a demigod, her rapid improvement in strength will inevitably slow down.
Only then can she devote her energy to other areas of power.
"Suck~"
After landing, Sarlayan revealed his half-dragon form and took a deep breath.
"hold head high!"
Under the horrified gaze of Orox and the others, Sarlayan spurted out a red dragon's breath of life flames, covering all the wounded except Jaina.
Although the power of this dragon's breath looks scary, it actually has no lethality.
Under Sarlayan's precise control, the Life Flame Dragon Breath only exerted a healing effect, and the wounds on all survivors healed quickly under the catalysis of life power.
However, it is impossible for someone like Geralmon who has lost his limbs and failed to get the parts back to recover.
"this……"
Feeling the wounds on his chest and lungs heal quickly in the dragon's breath, Laiorox said in amazement: "Sure enough, the longer you live, the more wonderful things you can see, and..."
"Ha~"
Smiling to himself, Orox's huge body leaned back and leaned against Hora, the wild boar who narrowed his eyes in comfort.
"Standing still can only lead to our vision becoming narrower and narrower. You are right, brat."
