Lord of Rot

Chapter 626 The popularity of board games and the final battle

"Victory or death!"

There is a tent rising from the ground outside Gangdao Mountain.

The strong orcs waved the cards in their hands, squatted in a circle, and shouted loudly.

The dwarf orcs don't understand the common language of Luleia, but they still remember the lines of some cards very clearly, and they can shout a few words after playing a lot.

"Haha, idiot!"

Opposite him is an overseer carrying a stick and a whip.

The other party is one of the supervisors responsible for controlling the orcs in Steel Knife Mountain, and they are usually locals.

Since a large number of orcs were transported here from the desert, the local people have basically been freed from mining work.

Turned to other things.

For example, women are responsible for cooking.

Men serve as overseers.

Originally, they were worried that the ugly orcs would be disobedient and unwilling to work hard.

They soon discovered that they were wrong. As long as they were given food to eat, these orcs could really do whatever they were told.

Later, the supervisor chatted with the tall orcs known as "Warcraft" and found out that the competition between the tribes in the Panbor continent was very fierce. The short orcs would become companions if they were too hungry and weak, let alone having enough to eat. food.

After arriving in the continent of Lulea, they were provided with food and shelter and no need to fight on the battlefield. For them, it was like they had arrived in the Kingdom of God.

Just as the overseer put down his cards, the orc on the opposite side suddenly put down a card: "For Lord Li Qi! Roar!"

"No more playing, no more playing!" The supervisor simply gave up.

This group of orcs are cunning in speaking, but they are very cunning when playing cards.

"newspaper!"

"newspaper!"

Some orcs started shouting, and other orcs followed suit.

"Look, look at it, do you know how to read?" The supervisor laughed and scolded, but he still stood up to get the newspaper. He didn't know why the big shot above asked him to tell the orcs about the contents of the newspaper regularly.

But he can also make a lot of money from it.

Some time ago, I don’t know what happened, but a few people from the north would quietly come to buy newspapers from me.

The overseer stood up, glanced at the Warcraft man who understood the common language of Lureia, shook the newspaper, and read loudly: "East Gorge, Giant's Foot, Endor and the four major lords of the north were in Hansen Castle in the north some time ago. The trial of King Lurea, George King Jr. begins!”

“A detailed account of the crimes of George C. King Jr.…”

The overseer's expression changed.

Interrogate the king?

This is the real big news. It’s interesting, so interesting!

He couldn't wait to read on.

"...Little George was beheaded by the sword and came back to life! Hiss! He is indeed a king. Even if he has done so many disgusting things, he is still blessed by the gods."

"Haha, the second time he cut off his head, it seems God doesn't really want to save him!"

The death of little George Kerin was published in the newspaper as quickly as possible, and relying on the ghoul network and newspaper printing, it took only a few days to spread it to every village in the territory.

All people talked about after dinner was the death of George Klein Jr.

This was definitely the first king to be beheaded by a duke.

But no one felt sorry for him.

Almost everyone applauds.

Among them, the Royal City and Feixiang Valley were the most popular, and even local celebrations were held.

The "Holy Land" of Dongxia - Tieshi City.

A mercenary randomly walked into a brothel.

"Guest" The male servant who was responsible for receiving guests stepped forward: "Are you here looking for a charming lady to spend a romantic day, or..."

"Find someone to play with!" the mercenary said.

"Of course, our ladies here are proficient in all kinds of games!" The male servant raised his chin proudly: "This is the closest to that city, and we are the first to get everything!"

"Porcupine collar," the mercenary sighed.

He also wanted to take a look at the town known as the fastest-rising town, but as an industrial hub, Porcupine Territory did not allow outsiders to approach at will. They had to apply and review qualifications, which was very cumbersome.

Therefore, many people are like mercenaries, temporarily settling in Iron Stone City.

Find one, or several beautiful girls, and play a game together around the table.

This is much more interesting than two people fighting!
Fighting is exciting for a short while, and then becomes dull, but these games from the Porcupine Collar can keep people awake for several days and nights!
"Call the people up," the mercenary said, "I'll pick a few first."

The environment in the hall was very chaotic, with people fighting and playing games, but luckily they didn't disturb each other.

The mercenary came to a table, and he was accompanied by three women. He had to pay 1 silver month for each of them, and he could only play for a while.

In the past, 1 Silver Moon, he could hold one of them in his arms all night.

He would often lament that just by changing the title, from "lady" to "accompaniment", the price would change dramatically.

As he sat down, he heard a discussion going on at the next table.

You would never have seen so many people discussing wars and major events before, but since the advent of newspapers, people have fallen in love with the feeling of pointing out the country.

All are officially released, and the credibility of newspapers is much higher than the stories that people add to the story.

"Kill little George now, it seems Clarence will be king!"

"What's wrong with Clarence being the king? Look at your life now, how comfortable it is."

"Yes, and Clarence has already had the strength to be the king, right? I still remember the last time I went to Shuijian Land, I saw those group of winged cavalry, like black waves, I was so scared that I didn't dare to breathe! "

"There are also three giant dragons!"

"Yeah, that's a giant dragon!"

Everyone sighed.

However, some people disagreed and said with an inscrutable look: "He is so powerful that he needs to be a king? I remember there is another one in the Golden Bear family, haha, being a king is not that simple."

"Isn't it enough to just kill him?"

"A man who kills people indiscriminately in order to be king, are you willing to follow him?"

The person who was asked the question muttered in a low voice: "It's not me who was killed anyway."

But everyone has a consensus.

There is still one person in the Golden Bear family who has the right to inherit the throne of the king, and it is Prince George Kane who was praised in the newspapers some time ago.

It is also possible to directly overtake the other party and become the king, but it will earn the title of "rebel".

Everyone is looking forward to it.

The mercenary and the ladies played games for a while, and finally spent a lot of money and slept with the three of them together.

Just playing the game in such a muddle-headed manner, although very decadent, is very comfortable.

Making money is not for enjoyment, why should we pay for it?

A few days later, he had already started to form a game with a group of people who also loved playing. The female companions became foils, and their skills were too poor to participate in the game.

But they are indispensable. This group of female escorts who are said to have been specially trained can always make people's heads bleed when they cheer.

two!

Someone next to me got the newspaper and was reading it.The mercenaries also pricked up their ears, intending to listen carefully.

The feeling of knowing everything about the world without going out is really comfortable.

"What! Li Qi Clarence said that Prince George Kane is the last golden bear and is willing to regard him as king and swear allegiance to him?!"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone dropped what they were doing, stretched their necks, and widened their eyes: "What!"

So is Li Qi a fool who turned around and gave the fat to others?
He cannot betray the one he considers to be the king, otherwise failing to keep his word will make him lose the support of the people.

"But" the man said in a long voice: "Prince George said that he had already sworn allegiance to Li Qi, and he would not betray his oath. Moreover, he believed that Li Qi was the best king, so he voluntarily gave up the inheritance."

"So, what now? Who's going to be king?"

"Reach doesn't want to be king, and neither does George," the man said.

The king turned out to be a hot potato. What did these people think?

……

Just as Yilona thought, when she finished her work and rushed back to Stormwind City, a newspaper was photographed in front of her.

As the last nobleman of the Golden Bear family with inheritance rights, Prince George Kane voluntarily gave up the throne of the king.

He said very seriously that Li Qi Clarence was the best choice for the king.

"He will not let go of this opportunity." Yi Luona glanced at the newspaper and said, "The most likely option is to abandon the name of the Kingdom of Lulea and re-establish the country."

The Duke of the North nodded on the chair, obviously agreeing with his daughter's judgment.

Many people could see Li Qi's intentions, but they were unable to do anything.

Could it be that now he stood up and said that Li Qi was playing tricks?

I am afraid that the vast majority of people want Li Qi to be the king, and the most important among them are the three giant dragons.

"Is the news true? Or is it deliberately false news released by Li Qi?" Yi Luona looked at the fat man aside.

"I bought this from the orcs in Steel Knife Mountain." The obese man had never been to the south, but he had learned how to rub his hands like a fly: "The news is absolutely true!"

"From the orcs?" Yi Luona looked at the other party suspiciously.

"In order to promote themselves, the porcupines will provide a large number of newspapers regardless of whether they are literate or not. Moreover, the orcs are living a pretty good life there. Those monsters are willing to work non-stop as long as they have food and shelter."

The obese man is a secret agent in the North. He is also responsible for raising a group of mice to spread some gossip in the corner that is not suitable for publicity.

Thus strengthening the Northerners' loyalty to House Storm.

But the propaganda methods of Dongxia people are really beyond their imagination.

The little book is a great weapon, it is cheap, and you can even give it away directly when doing business.

The children are illiterate, but they can still hold the little book and read it with gusto.

Compared to listening to minstrels singing stories at the top of their lungs, the action-packed comic books and exquisite pictures capture children's hearts in an instant.

If any child has a Dongxia Little Man book, it will definitely become the most popular one.

Not only that, with business exchanges, several card games that are very suitable for playing in taverns have also become popular in the north.

Gwent, Dungeons and Dragons, Hearthstone.

Making a fire, drinking wine, and playing a game has become a favorite among northerners.

However, not only did the games they played come from Dongxia, but the wine they drank was also porcupine wine!

Even the soap used in bathing is Dongxia's soap.

It's not that the obese man has never thought about replicating it. The technical difficulty is not a problem. The North has the largest scholar center in Lurea. As long as they have enough money, they can research exactly the same thing.

Several sets of similar games were being imitated, but the problem came immediately, it was not fun!

The North is too strong, and 'Heart of the North' Yi Luona can even kill Prince Hoffman alone in the game. No matter what they think in their hearts, this kind of unreasonableness will never be recognized.

Moreover, Dongxia releases new content very quickly.

From adults to children, from men to women, everyone is its audience.

What's even more absurd is that these games rekindled the brothel economy in the North because a group of men who couldn't find anyone to play games with were attracted by the new activities launched by the brothel owners.

You can order a beautiful woman to play various games with you!

Some women are even attracted and go in to have some men play with them.

When he investigated, he was shocked to find that this business model still came from Dongxia!
When people cherish the people of Dongxia, when they look at the wise and mighty leadership of Li Qi Clarence, they look at him

The Duke of the North, who was really helpless, could only ban games about the East Gorge.

But since Stormwind City secretly banned cultural exchanges in the Porcupine Territory, the Fat Agent's job has become more difficult.

In terms of commercial exchanges, the Northern Territory has always been in a lower position. Dongxia has most of the resources. Even after it no longer relies on trade with the Northern Territory, it will be more conducive to cultivating local commerce and agriculture.

Moreover, the manufacturing industry of the Dongxia people is extremely developed. Nowadays, most people in the northern border cannot do without the products produced by Dongxia.

Therefore, as long as there is a little quarrel between the two sides, the East Gorge will only suffer a small loss, but the Northern Territory will definitely be bruised and bruised.

"Let's fight!"

The Duke of the North, who had been sitting on the chair and seemed to be asleep, raised his head, his droopy eyelids suddenly raised: "How is it over there on Star Dragon Island?"

"At least 2000 extraordinary warriors have been trained!" Yi Luona said very confidently: "Even if the porcupine has three dragons, it cannot be our opponent!"

"Bring everyone back!" The Duke of the North tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair. They had long discussed how to deal with a conflict with Li Qi.

Dozens of war strategies have been prepared in advance, and they are constantly being changed as more and more information is learned about Li Qi.

Knowing themselves and their enemies, their chances of defeating Li Qi were very high, unless Li Qi planned to kill all his men and spend the rest of their lives with his three-headed dragon.

"Yes!"

"Sir, then I..." The fat spy raised his head carefully.

"Continue to check." The Duke waved his hand and said: "They are absolutely not allowed to have access to the books and games from Dongxia. After Li Qi surrenders, I will give you what I promised you at the beginning and canonize you as a baron!"

"Yes! I'll take people there now!"

The fat spy was overjoyed. He quickly lowered his head, bowed and backed away. He didn't raise his head until he reached the door, turned around and left.

When he turned around, the expression on his face changed and the smile disappeared.

Arriving at the gate of the Black Castle Fortress, under the watchful eyes of a group of soldiers, he waved majestically to a few thieves in the distance.

Everyone was used to this, until he took charge of all the rats in Stormwind.

"Good day" the little guy approached the fat spy: "Baron!"

"Oh, you little cuties who speak as melodiously as lark~" The fat spy's face was as bright as a chrysanthemum in full bloom: "Go tell those people that the Duke is ready to go to war."

One of the little guys raised his head: "Don't worry about what the adults said. Varian can't win this war, even if he can get the gods to help him."

"Of course!" The fat secret agent chuckled and put his hand on his round belly: "My lord, I have never lost a battle. By the way, there is one more thing. I am going to investigate a shop that sells illegal board games today. Please go and ventilate it. Report."

"Yes, Lord Baron!"

"Come, take the money and buy some delicious food." He took out a few silver moons and stuffed them into the hands of the little guys. He kept watching them run away, and then he slowly closed his smile, but there was no smile in his eyes. Disperse.

One side has three giant dragons and is frantically stationing troops, except for the porcupine of Rhea, who has almost unified the northern border.

On the other side is the old lion who doesn't realize that he has lost his arms and legs, but still thinks that he is the strongest.

Anyone who is not a fool knows how to choose the future.

"My Lord Duke, the final reward you gave me is just a meeting gift from Lord Li Qi. In terms of business, you are really far behind."

He rubbed his hands and strode into the ice and snow.

In this final battle, the two sides are not on the same level at all.
