Chapter 170 - 170: Two Alliances_l
Next, through Bianca White’s detailed introduction, Leo Ray learned the whole story.
It turned out that a century ago, when the Snow Feather Tribe of werewolves settled here, they had been living a peaceful life in this area called Wind Sigh Hillock, untroubled by the outside world.
It was only in recent years that numerous foreign Half-Orc tribes migrated to this place.
At first, both sides were at peace, with the Half-Orc tribes just fighting among themselves for territory.
However, once the Half-Orcs had a firm foothold in this land, the peace between the two clans was ruthlessly broken.
From a certain day onwards, the werewolf tribe discovered that their warriors who went out hunting were often inexplicably killed, and the murderers were none other than the brutally savage Half-Orc soldiers.
“After a series of investigations, we found out that these Half-Orc tribes not only fought among themselves but also had a habit of hunting down the powerful from other clans,” said Bianca.
At this point, due to her anger, Bianca revealed her sharp teeth and let out a faint growl from her throat.
She continued, “As the only other tribe in the vicinity different from the
Half-Orcs, our Snow Feather Tribe naturally became their target.”
“These despicable Half-Orcs often lay ambushes on the routes we must take for hunting, using various means to attack our warriors, their methods extremely vicious.”
After a pause, Bianca took a deep breath, trying her best to calm her emotions, and her upright ears slowly bent a little, “After learning about these situations,
Since the Half-Orc forces were too large, we, the Snow Feather Tribe, had to maintain extreme restraint and negotiate with them several times, but the result was even more intensified killings.”
“So that’s how it is.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, indicating for the other party to continue.
“After that, being left with no choice, we had to start an all-out war with the Half-Orcs.”
With a light sigh, Bianca bit her lip and shook her head helplessly, “But after all, the gap in strength between us and them is just too great. Although we won several local battles, in the end, it didn’t change the outcome of our failure, and we still live with the daily possibility of being killed for no reason.”
“I see.”
After a brief hesitation, Leo Ray couldn’t help but show a hint of confusion, “But if that’s the case, why don’t you choose another home? Why must you stay here and fight to the death with them?”
“Your Excellency, I’m really sorry, even though you all saved my life, I can’t reveal this secret of our Snow Feather Tribe,” replied Bianca.
On the other side, Bianca’s angry emotions had subsided quite a bit.
She blinked her crystal blue eyes and said somewhat embarrassedly, “In any case, for certain reasons, even if our tribe were to be completely wiped out by the Half-Orcs, we still cannot leave this place.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully, not asking any further questions, and changed the subject, “How large is the Half-Orc force lurking in this area?”
“In Wind Sigh Hillock, there are two Half-Orc tribe alliances, which were the two sides fighting in the valley just now.”
Bianca regained her composure, her fluffy ears swaying back and forth as she listened unconsciously to the rustling of the wind around her, “Each of these two alliances has a population of tens of thousands. The Brown Battle Flag alliance is called the Brown Demon Alliance, and the Gray Battle Flag is the Dark Mole Alliance.
Before, the Brown Demon Alliance was slightly more powerful, but for some unknown reason, recently, both sides have been in a situation where they are evenly matched.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but purse his lips.
There was no doubt that this was naturally due to the Brown Demon Half-Orc army that had invaded the forest being completely wiped out by his own forces.After a brief hesitation, Leo Ray rubbed his chin and asked, “What about the number of powerful fighters in these two half-orc forces?”
“In the two half-orc armies, there are a total of four Tier 4 Powerhouses, more than 30 Tier 3 Powerhouses, and at least six or seven hundred Tier 2 Powerhouses.”
Bianca White, who inhaled a cool breeze and felt her body getting a bit stiff, answered with a serious look on her face.
Without a doubt, the power of the half-orcs was overwhelming, and it seemed impossible to defeat them.
Helplessly shaking her head, Bianca’s large tail dropped completely to the ground, and she said to Leo Ray, “By the way, I don’t Imow why you all came here, what are your intentions?”
“Very simple, we have only one goal.”
Looking at the puzzled Bianca, Leo Ray said with a faint smile, “That is to eliminate all the half-orcs nesting here.”
“What?!”
Upon hearing this, Bianca’s tail, which had just been trailing on the ground, suddenly stood up again due to surprise, her face filled with disbelief.
Soon after, she calmed down, put her head directly in front of Leo Ray, and asked with a mixture of surprise and joy, “Your Excellency, are you telling the truth?!”
“Didn’t expect this little guy’s hair loss to be quite serious.”
Rubbing his itchy nose and looking at the floating white fluff, Leo Ray lightly coughed and then responded, “Yes, but we are new here and don’t know much about the half-orcs, so we need to investigate in detail.”
“Your Excellency, our Snow Feather Tribe has been fighting the half-orcs for several years, we know a lot!”
On the other side, Bianca’s ears twitched, and she excitedly said, “I will definitely do everything I can to help everyone… no, I will convince the elders to have the entire Snow Feather Tribe cooperate with your actions!”
“I’ll consider it.”
Leo Ray nodded faintly in response.
Without a doubt, he was waiting for those exact words.
From the previous battle, it was clear that although the werewolf tribe couldn’t match the large number of half-orcs, their strength was impressive.
Especially the impact power comparable to a knight, if used properly, it could obviously become an important assault force on the battlefield.
Therefore, in addition to using them against the half-orcs, Leo Ray intended to find the right opportunity to make them, like the Moonwhite Tribe’s half-elves, become his subservient tribe, further strengthening their power.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, Serena Clark’s energetic voice suddenly rang in his ear, “Reporting to my Lord, I have arrived at the werewolf’s residence, and after observation, everything is exactly as the young female werewolf said.
The middle-aged werewolf powerhouse has informed the other three elderly werewolves, all of whom are around Tier 3, 5-star in strength, about what happened earlier.
At the moment, all four have left their residence and are heading towards our position. However, judging from the furious expressions on the three elderly werewolves, they obviously do not believe what the middle-aged werewolf said.”
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray coughed lightly to acknowledge the information and remained silent, sitting still and waiting for their arrival.
Soon, an angry old voice came, “How could there be a human noble and a Tier 5 Powerhouse here? Bianca, this time, you don’t want to deceive us three old men!”
