It became apparent that the recent actions of the holy temple were instigated by the angels.
Subsequently, the orc chieftain elaborated on the reasons that had summoned the bone chewing tribe.
In an instant, Bayou grasped numerous revelations, understanding the motives behind the holy knight's expedition to both the elven and goblin kingdoms.
The Holy Temple was covertly recruiting races on behalf of the angels, compelling them to submit.
But what purpose did the angels have for so many races? Undoubtedly, it was for war.
Unbeknownst to Bayou, they were relentlessly recruiting through force.
And he firmly believed that it would not be long before the angels made their grand move.
Chapter 323.
Racing against time by you had come to understand the intricate details of the situation.
News of this affair had spread like wildfire throughout the bone chewing city, making it nearly impossible for the chieftains to remain unaware.
However, the more she learned about the unfolding events, the more apprehensive she became.
Five imperial level warriors.
Merely five individuals had compelled an entire orc empire to submit.
The Orc king himself possessed Imperial strength.
Yet, he found himself utterly powerless.
In three days time, once the chieftains returned to their tribes, they were to immediately lead their clan members in a migration toward the royal city for consolidation.
Before the chieftains had even returned, some for the chewing bone tribe had already taken the initiative to relay the news.
As the chieftains were yet to arrive, anxiety had surged among the tribes with dissenters emerging.
However, the outcome was a grim spectacle as the temple knights executed a few orc leaders as a deterrent, swiftly quelling any resistance.
After several orc leaders were slain, the remaining orcs, much like their king, subdued their defiance, they had no choice to refuse mint certain death.
As for the undead that had appeared in the northern territories of the empire, it was these six warriors who had been dispatched to eliminate the foes.
The temple knights, having instilled fear in all tribal leaders, had departed the Orc Empire to report back.
The Orc king had entered into a nightly contract with the temple, signifying the subjugation of the Orc Empire.
Accustomed to their freedom, the orcs found this forced submission utterly distasteful, compounded by the loss of their hard-earned tribes.
Stripped of their tribes, the orcs also lost their faith, rendering them utterly disillusioned with their king.
At this point, it mattered little to whom they submitted.
Was it true that the orc tribes were already migrating toward the Chewing Bone City? This notion displeased by you, with them congregating.
How could she possibly mount an offensive? Indeed, my lord, but I possess information on all neighboring tribes.
The other chieftains should have only just returned and have yet to begin their exodus, replied the scarred-faced orc, bowing his head.
Upon hearing this, Bayou felt a surge of excitement.
Resources remained, and there was even the potential for a significant operation.
Excellent.
I accept your submission.
With that, Bayou turned her gaze toward the two siblings.
Chunfong stepped forward, ready to formalize a contract with the orc.
The other three orcs witnessing the scene felt a pang of regret for not having seized the opportunity first.
What is your name? Chinfong inquired of the orc.
reporting to my lord, I am called broken hand.
This name represented his tribe, and he immediately adjusted his posture.
It must be noted that among the less cerebral orcs, Broken Hand exhibited a level of emotional intelligence that was quite remarkable.
And what about you three? Do you have anything to add? The three orcs, seeing a glimmer of hope, eagerly divulged all the information they possessed, which nearly mirrored what Broken Hand had shared.
Very well, you three shall be his subordinates.
Bayou waved her hand dismissively, uninterested in further trivialities, retaining them solely for the sake of diversifying her strategy.
Thus, the four orcs once colleagues had now transformed into a hierarchy of superior and subordinate.
Nonetheless, the other three orcs felt fortunate.
At the very least, they had managed to survive.
With a clap of her hands, Bayou signaled her satisfaction.
The four armored moths swiftly descended from the heavens, hovering over the city walls as two reaper guardians materialized beside Bou.
Without delay, she commanded, "Let us depart immediately, splitting into four teams.
At her behest, the two reaper guardians and the four kings formed four squads to board the armored moths, while the four orcs took the lead in guiding the way.
Bayou stood at top the city walls, gazing at the legions of the undead arrayed upon the armored moths which were level with the fortifications.
"Wow, great airship," Chunu exclaimed, excitedly shaking Chunfang's arm.
Both Chinu and Chunfong chose an armored moth to embark upon, accompanied by several royal figures and the troops within the moths, more than capable of vanquishing a tribe of orcs.
"Let us set forth," Bayou declared.
and the armored moths ascended instantly, accelerating southward.
After watching them vanish from sight, Bayou departed from the walls.
With time on her hands, she wandered aimlessly within Twin City, reflecting that this was her first visit since upgrading the siblings castle to a city.
She took the opportunity to inform Lee Lings of the situation regarding the angels, advising her to remain vigilant against the elven kingdom.
In truth, this was the opportune moment to strike.
If they delayed, the elves would consolidate their forces.
Enley Linky would face not merely the forest elves, but the entirety of the elven kingdom.
Thus, Bayou unhesitatingly sent the armored moths and the kings into battle.
Weatherly Lings could fathom this strategy was no longer Bayou's concern.
With 20 royal guards stationed within the city, their defensive strength was more than adequate.
After satisfying her curiosity, Bayou exited Twin City.
The afternoon light had already begun to wne, leaving her uncertain if they could accomplish their mission before nightfall.
Meanwhile, on the distant shores of Hapuni province within her town, Leel Lingi, having received Bayou's warning, recognized that time was of the essence, and that action was imperative.
Her expression grave, she pondered the enormity of finding a lord capable of commanding allegiance across two vast continents.
Thus far, she had been alone.
This isolation had severely curtailed her development, placing her in a precarious position.
Though Lee Lings had encountered other lords, she had refrained from demanding their submission, deeming them insignificant and a potential burden.
Yet reflecting upon it now, even formidable leaders like Bayou, and yet Xen had numerous subjects.
Her own troops were indeed powerful, but insolerity would not suffice.
Mimik, summon all sea tribes at once to assault the forest elven kingdom.
Lee Lings commanded a fallen angel without hesitation.
Realizing that further delay was untenable, she intended to fabricate the illusion of a sea tribe invasion against the forest elven kingdom, compelling them to fortify their coastlines, thereby seizing the opportunity to incite rebellion among the forest elves within the kingdom, sewing chaos and ultimately conquering them.
The intelligence had been thoroughly gathered.
Aside from the kingdoms of light elves, night elves, and storm elves, the other elven realms lacked royal level leaders with their elven kings merely of royal rank, leaving the Lingi unconcerned at this moment.
The elven king of the three kingdoms is preoccupied with the holy knights and is unable to attend to the affairs of the other kingdoms below.
Consequently, Leelings merely needs to manipulate a puppet to ascend as the new forest elven king, effectively concealing her intentions.
Once the forest elven kingdom is secured, she can transcend borders and continue to develop clandestinely inland.
However, her progress has stagnated in recent days.
She has barely reached the level of a level three monarch, and she may not even be a match for the forest elven king.
She dare not contemplate the level that Bayou has attained at this moment.
At that juncture, she will have to solicit Bayou and Du Yong for assistance as her current strength is somewhat inadequate.
Just then, a notification from the system chimed and Du Yang unexpectedly sent Lee Lingi a private message.
He has found a lord.
The furrowed brow of Lee Lingi finally began to relax.
This is splendid news for means she can now expand towards other major regions.
Chapter 3:24.
The happiest lord at this moment in the realm of Poale beyond the distant abyss lies a picturesque valley filled with melodious bird song and fragrant blossoms adorned with lush trees.
Within this sanctuary, dangers are nearly non-existent, and the fauna predominantly consists of common species, creating an illusion of a dreamlike paradise rather than an alien world.
In this idyllic retreat, a lord resides, his castle cleverly concealed.
Had it not been for the demon attendants who discovered signs of human habitation, one might never have realized that a lord lurked in the shadows.
Duang currently stands at the valley's periphery.
His gaze intensely fixed upon the enchanting scenery within.
He has already identified his target, but refrains from alarming him, patiently awaiting the arrival of Leelings.
This lord is far too weak for him to consider recruiting as a subordinate.
However, for the purpose of assisting Lee Lings in traversing two vast states, he is indeed the optimal choice.
As time progresses, the number of lords will dwindle, making it increasingly difficult to locate another.
