"Roar! Roar! Roar! "As a new section of the city wall collapsed, and to the excited roar of the orcs, several orc chieftains climbed onto the backs of the war behemoths and sounded the horns of the various clans, apparently in their eyes, the evil city was finally falling under the heroic battle axes of the orc warriors.

Although at the beginning, there was no direct contradiction between the orcs of the Ancient Continent and the humans who came here to take root, and if it was really serious, it was the orcs who started the battle between humans and orcs, but there is nothing to say about it so far, because now in the eyes of the people of the Empire, the orcs outside the red fortress are all a group of uncivilized beasts, and they can only negotiate with weapons and whips.

In the eyes of the orcs, these guys are a group of devils who continue to eat away at the orcs, they first slaughter their own people, and then enslave their own people, take them into the abyss of never seeing the sun, work day and night, and even brainwash them, in the eyes of the orcs it seems that these guys are a hundred times more evil than the bloodthirsty monsters located to the west and north of them.

Therefore, for the orcs on the east coast of the ancient continent and the Arabs stationed in Antioch today, there is no so-called opportunity for reconciliation between the two, and even if the dead brains on the orc's side suddenly realize that these humans in front of them are not at all able to defeat themselves, the Arabs will not stop there, or the empire has never thought of negotiating with a group of monsters whose IQ is only higher than that of the beasts, because the empire needs a lot of mines and a lot of slaves.

"Orcs will never be slaves!" Roaring with all their might, all the orcs, who looked like thugs but were as strong as mountains, rushed to the gap in the wall. Even the diminutive goblins and goblins joined the onboard, though they looked like gangsters. There was no discipline at all, but who made these orcs not only outnumbered but also physically strong?

Stampedes continue to occur in the midst of the advancing armies of orcs. Even later, after the war, a quartermaster who counted the battle losses said that at least nearly a thousand of his comrades were trampled to death on the orc side when the whole army charged down, of course, these so-called comrades-in-arms who were mistakenly killed by their own people were basically those short goblins, and only a few unlucky orcs.

"This is the last bucket." Unlike the chaotic battlefield above the ground, only a few Arab warriors stripped of their armor were left in the tunnels beneath the city walls to put the finishing touches on the final work: transporting the last wagon of barrels filled with black powder to the tunnels dug earlier.

"It's a pity for these sections of the city wall, I didn't expect the big men above to come up with such a trick in order to ambush the orcs, it will take at least a year or two to rebuild it." One of the Arab warriors said with a look of regret. He drew the long knife from his waist and made a hole in the barrel, then picked up the open barrel and slowly stepped back, apparently making a line for the final ignition.

"It's a pity, anyway, this wall was not built by us from beginning to end, and to be honest, it's okay to blow it up this time, I heard that the wall on our heads is filled with thousands of orc corpses at the beginning, unlucky, too dead, even if the sun is exposed every day, it's useless." The other remaining Arab warrior was doing the same job as he muttered.

"You kid still don't believe in Allah, how can you speak in the same way as those Taoist priests in Daqin? What is called too much dead air. The Arab warrior who spoke first said.

"How could I not believe in Allah? I am Allah's most faithful servant! I just don't want to see this damn wall. Every time I go to the city wall at night, I always feel that my back is hairy. The godly Arab warrior said, "And it will be the orcs who will rebuild the walls anyway, and after all, the city walls have nothing to do with us, we just lit a fire, and you have to think about the good." After this battle, there will be no more orc tribes outside Antioch that can compete with us, and it won't be long before the cavalry regiments that have completed the military reform of the empire will come to us to train the orcs, and then we will be able to enjoy the blessings here. Lord Saladin said that after the end of the war, each of Allah's warriors would be given 20 orc slaves and 40 acres of fertile land along the coast. ”

"I probably won't have that chance to enjoy the blessings. You know my father was in charge of the slave trade, he said it before the war. This time if I can go back he will retire and give me his place in the Chamber of Commerce and bring my mother and brother back to New Delhi. ”

"Isn't this very good, there is a future for businessmen, the empire has a high degree of support for businessmen, and if you can get on the throne in the future, won't it be developed."

"Well, who knows what will happen in the future? Besides, let's get the job done first. As he spoke, the Arab warrior lit the torch in his hand with the fire breaker on his body, and then said to his companions: "Are you ready?" I'll order it when I'm ready. ”

"Ready." As soon as the words fell, the torch in the hand of the Arab warrior who lit the fire was released and fell to the ground, and then ignited the fuse formed by the black powder on the ground, and at the same time, the two Arab warriors had already turned and ran away as the torches fell freely.

"Boom!" The sound of an explosion spread throughout the battlefield, followed by an earthquake and a massive collapse on the battlefield, and the unprepared orcs were devoured by the cracked earth and the stones falling from the sky.

There weren't many orcs who really died within the range of the explosion, but the shock wave generated by the explosion made countless orcs lose consciousness in an instant, and those orcs who didn't faint immediately also saw countless human warriors in silver heavy armor wielding battle axes from the raised yellow dust the moment they closed their eyes.

A day later

The dimly lit dungeon, where prisoners are held in Antioch, which is currently the largest slave trading area in the Empire. Therefore, Antioch was stricter in terms of security than Atlantis, and the dungeon used to hold prisoners was larger than that of Atlantis.

However, under normal circumstances, there are still very few prisoners in Antioch's dungeons. Because basically those who want to commit crimes in Antioch are definitely doing human smuggling, especially orc human smuggling. But this kind of thing can be regarded as touching the economic lifeline of Saladin, the lord of Antiochus, and at the same time, it also endangers the main source of slaves in the Empire, so under normal circumstances, even if such a prisoner is caught in prison, he will not stay for a few days, and will be dragged out and hanged on the gallows along the coast.

And the only thing that can make the prison of Antioch overcrowded is that after the failure of the orc attack on Antioch, the soldiers defending the city will detain the orc high-level, such as shamans and chiefs, for horrific torture, in order to get the situation in the depths of the ancient continent. Of course, the most important thing is the latest branch situation of the orc tribe in the depths of the Ancient Continent, which is the best news for the slave catcher group in Antioch.

"Lord Saladin, the leader of the enemy is down there, but this guy has a hard mouth, and we always get information about the depths of the Ancient Continent." The man in the torture suit and the scarf on his face said respectfully, and standing in front of him was a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes who looked extremely strong, and there was a huge scar on his face, which was left by the life and death struggle with the orc chief in the early years. He is the Arab leader of the Sunset Empire, and the only Prince of Sunset who has the title and power of a supernumerary prince but is rarely mentioned, after all, this prince has been free from the power of the empire from the beginning, but has been in his own right in a distant place.

"It's fine. I didn't think about what I could get from coming here this time, I was just curious about what a guy who could pull up a coalition of 100,000 orc tribes was, and such a guy wouldn't be just an ordinary orc chieftain. Saladin shook his head. Under the leadership of the warden. The lord of Antioch soon saw his target: an orc with dozens of barbed thorns and two huge chains tied to the wall, and an interrogator who was constantly torturing the orc with flaming pieces of iron.

"Are you the commander of this orc alliance?" Saladin motioned for the executioner to step aside. He walked forward slowly, playing with the torture instrument he had just received from the torturer, and said in the orc language of the Ancient Continent that he had learned a few years after he had been here.

"Who are you?" Although the orc chief had not talked much about the world, Saladin's gorgeous clothes and the fact that he looked out of place with the people he had seen before slowly raised his head after a moment of silence, and then asked with a contemptuous expression on the severe pain caused by the thorns on his body as much as possible.

"Me? According to your thinking, I have the same position as you, and of course on our human side, I am just a stronger chieftain. Saladin said with a leisurely face: "Actually, I didn't want to do anything here, according to the law that the sun never sets, any enemy can be executed on the spot, but there are some things I still need to confirm, I hope you can cooperate, Mr. Chieftain of the Zaroko tribe." ”

"You" When Saladin said the tribe from which the orcs came from in the ancient orc language, the orc warriors who were fixed to the wall instantly burst into endless anger and wanted to rush over and crush Saladin's head, but the countless thorns covered with barbs made the orc chief unable to even scold in pain.

After a futile and frantic struggle, the orc chief seemed to have exhausted the last of his strength, and finally gave up the needle prick, and after a few seconds of silence, he looked up at Saladin and said with difficulty: "What do you want?" ”

"It's up to you to perform." Saladin paused and said, "If you can answer my question honestly, I can guarantee that we humans will never go back to disturb your tribe again, and we can even help your tribe clear some threats from the surrounding area, but if you don't cooperate, I can tell you clearly that your tribe has been targeted by us before the war, and we even know about your attack." ”

"I see, it turned out to be such a pathetic orc race, but I didn't expect that in the end, we would never be able to escape the fate of being dominated." The orc chief said bitterly.

"It always seems that you really know what is going on in the depths of the Ancient Continent, how about it? I've made it a condition that if you tell us what you know, I'll be able to give shelter to your orcs. ”

"In the depths of the Ancient Continent is a powerful monster empire, and they call themselves the Demon Clan." The orc chief said weakly: "Where is our homeland itself, rich land, endless hunting grounds, sweet springs, but only since the demon clan came with the yellow sand, the earth has dried up, the upper valley is barren, everything has changed, our orc clan has been divided into two large pieces and can no longer be contacted, it is said that the orcs on the other side were killed by the demon clan a long time ago, and only the orcs of our branch have survived to this day, of course, it is not far from extinction." ”

"Sure enough, it's almost the same as the spy said." Saladin closed his eyes and muttered, "You guys take care of this guy, find a doctor for him, I need to do something very important."

Seven days later, on the last day of December 31, Sun Lin, who was in Atlantis, received information from Saladin in the distant Ancient Continent and urgently convened a high-level meeting of the sunset

"Gentlemen, obviously we are in big trouble," was the first thing Sun Lin said when he met the people attending the meeting. (To be continued......)
