665 Observing

When Abel went back to battle fort no.03, he gained an extra mount wolf. An extremely ordinary mount wolf

If Flying Flame had not gotten used to hiding its dragon vigor, the mount wolf would get scared to death, following limply behind Abel.

Everything wolf rider captain Beecher had was preserved, but his body had turned into a pile of ash. Even the other 2 wolf rider captains that wanted to capture him could not escape. Abel had sent out White Snow and killed them as well.

Abel now had an identity that could be recognized by the orc empire. Although it was not someone with great status, a wolf rider captain was still quite rare.

At the same time, he learned more about the orc god ceremony. The information he had gotten was quite good considering that wolf rider captain Beecher had only sacrificed 2 sheep.

“White Cloud, head to the Rocky Field!” Abel yelled at White Cloud, who was resting at the time.

“Ghoo ghoo..” White Cloud then began to flap its giant wings and head towards the rocky ground.

Since he needed to examine the condition of the orc empire, he had to go to the place where most of the orcs gathered. It was the rocky ground located slightly north of east.

After half a day of flying, Abel finally saw the rocky ground. There was a forest of thorns separating it from the wolf garden. Within the forest, there was a small passage guarded by wolf riders and around 10 Taurens.

Compared to the dried up wolf garden, this place looked even more lifeless. There were only some tiny thin plants popping out from time to time.

The rocky ground was a fitting name for the barren area. Abel stretched out his sight. The entire place was a patch of grey dirt, and there were all kinds of rocks–Some big, some small. It was basically a desert.

He didn’t know how the orcs could survive in a place like this, but he soon discovered a patch of water that seemed to be the only source of water around here.

Next to the water, there was an oasis. Some Tauren were working hard on their crops. They were elders, and the young Tauren were nowhere to be seen.

Just like the wolves, the Tauren were some of the hardest working orcs. Although there were not many things in the Rocky ground, the entire place was ruled by Tauren.

The Tauren were a rare breed of orcs who had a natural insanity attribute. They did not like battles normally, but once they heard the sound of war. Their fighting spirit would shoot up by a few times.

It was because of the Tauren’s normally peaceful nature; they could turn this vast rocky field into their domain.

Abel took out a telescope and examined what kind of crops they were growing. It looked strange, those crops were not tall, but they were extremely thick. He didn’t even know what it was as a druid.

Suddenly a Tauren that seemed to be starving plucked one of those crops from the ground and began eating it.

As Abel gazed at this oasis, he thought to himself, how many Tauren can these crops keep alive?

As he continued to fly, he realized how strange their planting method was. Due to the lack of water, there were countless wells on the ground. And those corps would often grow around the well between the gaps of the stones. The Tauren here were not willing to waste a single bit of water.

White Cloud’s speed was miraculous. After a few days of flying, Abel finally saw a city. According to the orc tooth map, this was the largest Tauren city, Scan City.

The entire city was made out of the only endless resource here, rocks. From the sky, Abel saw 2 humongous yet grand-looking structures. There were a temple and a palace.

Abel couldn’t help but sigh. Even a dead piece of land could give birth to religion and feudalism. Humans were not the only species that went crazy for power.

As Abel causally toured around the orc empire, a team of 10 humans had set off from the Miracle Wall.

This team was made up of 5 head commanders and 5 intermediate wizards. The head commanders were not on their mounts, but those intermediate wizards were able to bring them along and move in a flash.

An intermediate wizard could only move around 100 miles in a flash before they needed rest. If not, their fighting ability might be affected. This was not the problem of mana store, but because casting spells were quite energy draining.

Still, moving in a flash was a lot faster than a mount.

“Let’s rest!” Head commander Donald said to intermediate wizard Hubert who was by his side, and then to the rest of the team.

“Ok, I’ll set up the circle!” Wizard Hubert stopped flashing and placed a magic circle board on the ground, and ignited a barrier circle.

The 10 men quickly stepped within the barrier circle and sat down on the ground. The wizards took out the water and distributed it to the others.

“Weird, how come we never saw a single wolf rider along the way. This is the wolf garden!” Head Commander Nelson said in confusion.

“Maybe we are lucky!” Head commander Naishi said with a laugh.

All the men began to laugh, as well. They all expected this mission to be full of danger, and moving in a flash with wizards instead of taking their mount for a speedier ride was even riskier.

However, it seemed like this idea was not bad at all. Although the ability of knights would be affected a little without a mount, all the men on the spot were head commanders. They could totally make it up with the brutal strength of their body.

Although the roads they took were extremely dangerous, as long as the wizards kept their eyes out when moving in a flash, they should be fine, especially with this many head commanders.

“After this mission, I hope everyone can help avenge Wizard Amos!” Head Commander Donald lowered his voice.

“Of course. Edi, are you sure k3516 is still doing operation alone in the orc battlefield?” Head Commander Nelson nodded and turned to head commander Edi.

“K3516 is very mysterious, and I don’t really know how powerful he is. He had been on his own ever since the beginning of the orc hunting mission, but his results seemed very scary!” Head commander Edi suddenly remembered the extra war glory. How many orcs did one need to kill to get this much war glory?

“I don’t care how powerful he is. With the 10 of us together, even elite wizards can’t stop us!” Said head Commander Donald with grand confidence.

“Nice, nice!” Everyone began to laugh again. Everyone on the spot was extremely confident about their own ability.

“Donald. Did Amos have that book with him when he died?” wizard Hubert suddenly added.

“Most likely, there’s no way he would let go of such an important thing!” Head Commander Donald said in certainty.

“Then, do you think k3516 will be on his way to the orc god blood as well?” Wizard Hubert asked again.

“I don’t think so. Amos and I had spent quite a long time on that thing; he shouldn’t have that ability!” Although head commander Donald didn’t think Abel would, it didn’t stop him from having doubts.

“But K3516 has the battle drum; he can clear away the surveillance in the sky. He also has the orc tooth map, so he can take the shortest path. He had even gotten the last bit of information about the orc god blood from Amos. How would he let a good opportunity like this slip away?” Wizard Hubert added in a low voice.

“K3516 locked himself up for training. He locked himself up the day before we set off from Miracle City!” Head Commander Edi hesitated a little, but he still said what was in his mind.

Although their orc hunting team had been dismissed, he could still hear a thing or two, especially with a big mouth like k3308. He just wouldn’t shut up, even when injured.

“Locked himself up for training? At this time? There’s no way. He is definitely going for the same thing as us. It looks like we are in for a lot of fun this time!” Head commander Nelson said loudly.
