The orcs' crude disguise did not fool Carlos's bodyguards. Yikan?Book·1?k?a?n?s?h?u·cc
In the dead of night, seven orc island warriors came out of their respective hiding places, gathered together, and tried to assassinate the humans who landed on the island.
However, the armored human soldiers stood ready and surrounded these sneak attackers in the dark night.
Facing the human army with an absolute numerical advantage, the orcs could only curse.
However, once again, the human soldiers on the opposite side actually spoke fluent orcish and authentic orcish curses, which short-circuited the heads of the orcish defenders on these islands.
"When the war in Hillblade was at its most tense, both the Alliance and the Horde were constantly spying on each other's military situation. Understanding each other's language, understanding each other's flags, and stealing each other's order documents are all very effective ways to obtain intelligence. Means. Those of us who are fighting on the front line can even distinguish the opposing troops from the difference in the accents of the orcs' war cries. There are also guys among the orcs who can skillfully use the accents of the four countries, and even forge documents to mobilize alliance troops. These guys are rare and strange. "
Regarding possible future interest partners, Carlos patiently explained.
"War is really terrible."
Brian Bronzebeard is a good explorer, but not a good soldier. After knowing that there might be a night attack, he did not allocate his energy properly and was excited for most of the night. At this moment, he was a little nervous. After hearing humans speaking orc language, he felt a little nervous. Suspicious.
"Choose seven people, catch them and fight them. The winner can go."
Judging from their size alone, the orc soldiers who stayed on the island were different from the main force of the tribe who went north to Hillbrad. Three of the orcs were not even as strong as the muscular soldiers under Carlos. Yikanshu·1?k?an?s?h?u?·c?c?
Therefore, Carlos prepared to use the most intuitive way to see the quality of these orcs.
The captain of the guard originally wanted to take part in person, but when he saw the eager dwarf guides, he suddenly realized that his king had no intention of showing off his muscles in front of the dwarves.
"Count!"
"Seventeen, twenty-seven, forty-seven, fifty-seven, seventy-seven, ninety-seven, one hundred and twenty-seven, come out."
The captain of the guard randomly whipped seven people.
Then, by the light of torches, the best of the "ordinary men" in Oakland picked their opponents with bloodthirsty excitement.
And then. Seven orc corpses with different forms of death lay on the ground.
"The orcs are getting weaker."
The captain of the guard looked on with unfulfilled interest, and his slight sigh was still heard by Carlos.
"We have become stronger."
Even though there are strong and weak among the orcs, these orcs who stay on the isolated island are the inferior horses among the orcs, but in the cruel war. It is also an indisputable fact that human beings' technical and tactical systems have advanced by leaps and bounds.
The fighting instincts of these seven orcs still did not disgrace their race, and their fighting will was also very strong. They were all good hunters, but unfortunately their fighting skills were somewhat inferior.
"I think I should send an urgent letter to Marshal Lothar. The Alliance must speed up its actions. Hilbrad's failure dealt a heavy blow to the tribe. This may be the weakest moment for the orcs.??Depends on?? Book?ww?w?·1·cc However, with every minute wasted, the orcs are recovering, and we cannot let the home of our dwarf brothers become the second Hillbrad battlefield."
Carlos's words were half sincere and half a political show, but when Brian Bronzebeard heard it, he couldn't help but nod. It was indeed too difficult for the Ironforge family to fight against the orcs alone.
After the hustle and bustle, the temporary campsite returned to calm. In the predicament before dawn, the orcs once again showed humans and dwarves what it means to be a fighting race.
It turned out that in addition to the seven orcs at night, there were five more orcs hiding in the tidal flats.
Although the cold water of Rock Lake severely weakened the physical strength of the five orcs, using their psychological paralysis and blind spots, these five guys still destroyed three Carlos rafts and killed two night watch soldiers.
It's a pity that these guys mistakenly chose Carlos as a breakthrough, trying to become unparalleled in the human camp after drinking the blood of demons.
The angry Carlos pushed away the shield guards in front of him, casually drew out a standard long sword, and joined the battle group in the most brutal and brutal way.
"I have repeatedly warned you that standing guard is a big deal. Dozing off can kill people. Is it fun? Is it exciting? Is it interesting?"
Facing the thundering king, the pride of the Guards Corps all bowed their heads, and they no longer looked like they were the best in the world.
"Is this the first day you've seen how scary orcs are or the first time you've heard of them? I brought you out to perform a mission. Not for fun, not to die!"
After venting his anger, Carlos wiped his face and calmed down his anger.
"Go check the waterlogged supplies, collect the scattered logs, and repair the raft. Properly dispose of the bodies of the brothers, we should speed up."
When everything was done, it was already dark.
"Your Majesty, we found fresh orc footprints on the beach in the north-northwest. I'm afraid some orcs crossed over last night."
The captain of the guard whispered to Carlos before leaving.
"Ignore it."
Carlos thought for a moment and gave his answer.
The comfort along the way not only paralyzed the soldiers of the Guards, but even Carlos himself relaxed. However, a night of changes, the remains of twelve orcs and the remains of two subordinates, made Carlos finally remember that the relationship between the Alliance and the Horde The war is far from over.
The war continues.
After three days and two nights, the large force finally landed on the south bank of Rock Lake.
"Carlos, an hour further south is the Iron Ring Excavation Site."
After Brian Bronzebeard landed on Level 6, he couldn't help but stamp his feet. It was not a good feeling to float on a simple wooden boat for a long time.
"Well, I will fulfill my promise. Is there a suitable place to camp nearby?"
Carlos asked.
"Yes, there is a gravel mountain col in the southwest, and there is an underground artesian well there."
Brian Bronzebeard thought for a while and replied.
Then, Carlos suggested that Brian send two people to lead the way, and he would send a small team to conduct reconnaissance first. The remaining people would settle down first, rest and adjust for a night, and then spend one day tomorrow to complete their commitment to the Stormpike expedition. .
"no problem."
Brian Bronzebeard agreed to Carlos' request.
In Carlos's impression, earth spirits, the predecessors of dwarves, are an improved form of standard underground creatures designed by the Titans of the Pantheon when they transformed the world. Every creature created by the Creator has a certain mission. After completing the localization of the standard template in Azeroth, the earth spirits became a general variety adapted to life deep underground, and were responsible for the transformation of the planet's internal environment. In other words, earth spirits are the construction workers in the Titan Legion.
Earth dwarves, iron dwarfs, iron dwarves and iron dwarves.
Whether they are dwarves, humans, or gnomes, they are all corrupted by the flesh-and-blood curse of the ancient gods.
Only for troggs, there are two theories about their origin.
The first theory is that after the earth spirits were created, they underwent many unforeseen changes due to the huge environmental pressure. When the synthetic matrix of the earth spirit became unstable, mutations occurred. The first type of variant is called "troglodyte", also known as "trogg". This variant retains the earth spirit's strength and stamina, but its sensory abilities are greatly diminished. Desire and cunning, as well as a natural hatred of dwarves, became the caveman's instincts. After the Titans discovered their failed work, they buried these troggs underground in the ancient Titan city [Udaman]. Later, the dwarves became addicted to digging holes and dug out their older cousins.
The second theory is that the troggs are actually earth spirits that have been deeply corrupted.
Although the troglodytes do not pose much of a threat to humans except for their numbers, the Iron Ring excavation site is still across the entire barren land from Uldaman. Even if the troglodytes are excavated, they will be nothing more than scattered groups on the periphery. But Carlos was still prepared to go with careful planning.
There is nothing simple about things related to Titans, Ancient Gods, and Elune. (To be continued.)
