Gruul is indifferent to the rise and fall of mortal forces in the Blade's Edge Mountains. As long as the mortals continue to pay tribute to him, Gruul will not interfere in their fights with each other.
Once a foreign enemy invades, for the sake of tribute, Gruul is willing to be at the front and bear the pressure for all the creatures in Blade's Edge Mountain.
Just like when Sabellian led the black dragon to invade.
From this perspective, Gruul is indeed a qualified boss.
Since the demise of the original beast forces, Gruul, as the last and most powerful member of the Destroyer, has been unmatched in the Gorgrond region.
There is a saying that a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake.
The black dragons headed by Saberian verified the correctness of this sentence through practical actions, at the cost of their lives.
Due to the butterfly effect created by Sharlayan, Deathwing did not come to Draenor in person to cause trouble like in the original history.
Sabellian, the second generation dragon, alone could not defeat Gruul, who was only slightly weaker than the Aspect Dragon.
In the war with the demigods of the Gronn forces headed by Gruul, the Black Dragon suffered a complete defeat with the death of its leader Saberian.
Since then, no powerful creature of the demigod level has entered Gorgrond.
Even Yin Lidan, who had always been self-centered, didn't want to provoke this powerful dragon slayer for no reason... After all, fighting Gruul would do him no good.
After the Blade Tower Ogres moved to the Blade's Edge Mountains, they immediately went to Gruul and paid homage to the dock. After getting Gruul's permission, they settled here with confidence.
However, compared with the Bloodmaul Ogres who have lived in the local area for a long time and have long been matured, the Blade Tower Ogres are outsiders after all, and there is a difference between familiarity and distance.
Gruul himself didn't care about this, but the Gronn descendants under him would always instinctively prefer the Bloodmaul clan, which was smooth and obedient.
The people who are hiding behind the Blade Tower clan and making suggestions also know this truth.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, the Blade Tower Ogres do not want to rush into an all-out war with the Bloodmaul Ogres.
In this case, they can only target the Thunder God clan.
After all, those who are not of my race must have different minds.
To take a step back, the Blade Tower Ogres and the Thunder God Orcs have a centuries-old hatred. They would rather the Bloodmaul Ogres of the same clan become the mortal overlords of the Blade's Edge Mountains, rather than see the Thunder God Clan reach the top.
If the Bloodmaul Ogres take off the crown, as long as the Blade Tower Clan behaves humbly enough, for the sake of their fellow clansmen, they will not kill them all.
The Thunder God clan is different.
Even Sarlayan, an outsider, can be sure that if the Blade's Edge Mountains finally fall into their hands, the Blade Tower Ogres who have a feud with the Thunder God Clan will never end well.
Although someone took the initiative on the battlefield through a premeditated sneak attack, due to insufficient troops and lack of combat experience, the Blade Tower Ogres failed to defeat the Thor Orcs who suffered heavy losses in the first wave of raids. collapse.
After the Thunder God Orcs recovered from the panic of being attacked, the two sides fell into a long tug of war and stalemate.
Although Garm wanted to completely wipe out the Dota clan in one go, he still maintained the most basic sense of reason.
After noticing that the Bloodmaul Ogres had stopped attacking, the Blade Tower Ogres and the Thunder God Orcs, who had not taken advantage of each other, retreated to a truce in a tacit agreement. The three major forces fell into a strange truce at the gate of Mok'Natha Village. A state of three-party confrontation.
"This is a good opportunity."
On the roof of the chief's house in Moksana Village, Sarlayan's eyes flickered as he climbed up and looked out into the distance.
Laiorox scratched his head in confusion: "What good opportunity?"
"If these guys start fighting at our door, with the current state of the Moknasa clan full of injuries and illnesses, we may be wiped out by the aftermath of their battle first."
"Not really."
Sarlayan touched his chin thoughtfully: "The cave tunnel in the south has completely collapsed, and the only road leading to Moknasa Village is the northern intersection."
"Tonight I will secretly go to the frontline military camp to provide treatment for your soldiers... Don't get excited yet, listen to me."
Sarlayan patted Orlox's generous shoulder with a serious word: "Next, I need you to still pretend to be injured and deliberately show weakness to the enemy."
"ah?"
Lyorox asked in confusion: "Why is this?"
"Let me put it this way." Sarlayan smiled meaningfully: "If you are any of the three major forces, and the combat effectiveness of the Mok'Nasa clan has declined significantly and it is no longer a threat to you, you Where will you focus your attention first?”
Lai Orox was stunned for a moment, he really lowered his head and thought about it for a while before suddenly hammering his palm.
"I understand! Do you want to..."
"Shh~ Just understand, don't make any noise."
"Uh-huh!"
Lai Orox rubbed his hands eagerly but a little uneasily and continued: "If your plan goes well... we might have to face Gruul directly."
"Gruul himself is relatively easy to talk to. I'm worried that his Gronn descendants will get angry and make things difficult for us because of the defeat of the Bloodmaul clan."
"Gruul..."
Sarlayan narrowed his eyes and answered the question, "Come here, Chief Oroks. You are a local. You must know more about Gruul's temper than I do."
"Do you think it's possible for us to convince Gruul to abandon his narrow guard-dog mentality and instead focus on the survival of Draenor as a whole?"
"Hmm..." Lai Orox lowered his head and pondered for a while before shaking his head with a wry smile: "It's difficult, Gruul... How should I put it, although he is relatively easy to contact most of the time... To be precise, he is not easy for mortals. He is indifferent, but he has a different kind of persistence in his territory."
"Perhaps it's the sequelae of the battle between the Destroyer and the original beast. He has been worried that the original beast will come back one day."
Sharlayan sighed: "I can tell you clearly that in Draenor, which is now deeply corroded by evil energy, there is no longer any soil for primitive beasts to survive."
The so-called primitive beasts are essentially spore life forms, and they have extremely strict requirements on the environment.
Since the evil energy began to infect the land of Draenor, the primitive beasts with the keenest sense of the environment were the first to withdraw from Draenor's mainstream vision.
According to the information provided by the free-willed undead scouts, the once prosperous Evergreen Woodland has long since disappeared and gradually evolved into today's Luan Wilderness.
Even the Yongmao Woodland, the base camp of the original beast forces, no longer exists. How can the original beast rise again against the trend?
However, as Lyorox said, Gruul, who is a descendant of the Destroyer, is literally a stone head, and it is difficult to change his perception of the things he is sure of.
unless……
"Gruul, who survived from ancient times, still follows the law of the jungle that respects the strong. You want to persuade him to change his mind, unless you can defeat him openly in a one-on-one duel."
"But..." Laioroksi spread his hands in a self-deprecating tone: "How is this possible?"
"Since Gruul was born, he has experienced hundreds of battles and has always been victorious. Even the powerful primordial thorn beasts and black dragons cannot defeat him, let alone us mortals."
"That's not necessarily the case."
Sarlayan smiled noncommittally: "Let's not go that far. In short, let's first find a way to solve the current predicament facing the Mok'Nasa clan."
"When the war in Blade's Edge Mountain subsides...come to Chief Oroks. I hope to get your help and send people to search the entire Blade's Edge Mountain to find what we need."
"no problem."
Lai Orox readily agreed, patting his chest: "Moknasa is also a local leader of Gorgrond. We can't say that we know every inch of this land. At least it's better than not knowing the local area." The situation is much more familiar to outsiders."
"Then it's settled."
After high-fiving Oroks and swearing an oath, Chief Moknasa, who was burdened with chores, quickly said goodbye and left with high energy.
Under the moonlit night of Draenor, Sharlayan and Jaina, who were nestling together, raised their heads and looked towards the direction of Crow Forest in the northwest of Blade's Edge Mountains.
Jaina rested her head on Sarlayan's shoulder, and murmured with half-closed eyes slightly tired: "I don't know if Aoni has gained anything there. I hope the black dragon is really hiding in the Crow Forest as you guessed. "
Sarlayan smiled silently and muttered silently in his heart: 'It's not my guess, but another piece of information provided by the barrage to find the timeline. '
'but……'
Sarlayan frowned slightly: 'Under the influence of a series of butterfly effects, will the black dragon really still settle in Crow Forest? '
