I just covet their strength

Chapter 272: Shocked by the Orcs' Tradition of Sharing Husbands

The so-called pilgrimage to become a king is the necessary process for selecting the Knight King.

All ordered kingdoms exist around their God-Ancestors, and the rulers chosen by the God-Ancestors are also the undisputed core of the ordered kingdom.

For example, the imperial family of the empire, the royal family of the royal court, the kings of the Kingdom of the Sky, and so on, were all endorsed by the God-Ancestor.

However, the Kingdom of Yonglan is an exception. [Yonglan Knight God] did not make any arrangements for his followers, nor did he leave any bloodline. The Knight's Homeland was decentralized when it was first established.

But no matter how loose a country is, it always needs a leader. When the Kingdom of Yonglan was first established, it was not as wealthy as it is now. It still needed a king to integrate resources and fight against the monsters and chaotic monsters from all directions.

If the God does not appoint a leader, then mortals can only choose their own king. The first Knight King set out from his own territory and toured the entire country. He used coercion, inducement, persuasion or beating to convince others, and was elected as the Knight Leader.

Even the indifferent God Ancestor recognized and blessed the Knight King for the first time, so this tradition was preserved. Although the operation of the Kingdom of Yonglan no longer depends on the Knight King, and this country has no Knight King most of the time, this does not mean that the Knight Lords reject a king.

It is simply difficult for anyone to accomplish such a great feat, and it is extremely difficult to gain recognition from all the knight lords. In the beginning, there were only a few lords in the Kingdom of Yonglan, but now it has become a vast country, and there are very few kings who can be recognized by everyone wholeheartedly.

In the beginning, there were several Knight Kings, but in the past hundred years, the position of Knight King has remained vacant.

The one with the best chance is the deceased [Sword of Star Lake], who has been recognized by most of the Knight Lords and is almost regarded as the destined Knight King.

But she bet her future on Twilight Territory.

"Hahahaha!! I see, so that's what you were thinking?"

Mephis was the first to react, and the pretty blue-haired knight laughed wildly.

"Instead of letting this orc become king, you yourself will become king? That's true. How can a mad orc take on this responsibility?"

"But there is one more thing. Although the position of Knight King does not necessarily have to be held by someone with the blood of Yonglan, he must be on the path of knighthood. Otherwise, the title is simply unworthy of the title."

"Lord Qinghui, are you a knight?"

Mephis expressed the doubts that all the knights had. Although the knights respected and admired the strong, not everyone could be strong. At least one had to be considered a knight, right?
"I think I could be."

Westhead said as he unsheathed Shadowborn and swung the knife to the side without warning.

"Rumble--"

The extreme brightness was like a torrent of countless gold, real silver, and gems rushing across the snow, and the purest energy was released, cleansing the surface of the earth and even the sky.

This torrent did not last long, nor did it seem vast and spectacular. It was far from the previous blow that split the sky and the earth. Westhead only tasted it briefly, releasing it for a few seconds before stopping.

However, the shock it brought to everyone was no less than the previous big move.

“【Extinction Light Punishment】.”

The Yonglan Knight's signature fighting skill can only be mastered by those who are highly skilled and extraordinary on the Yonglan Knight's path. The modified versions of the Knight's path in other countries will not have this move.

Westhead smiled and said:

"Although I can be considered a citizen of the Empire, I have never walked the path of the Holy Tree system. On the contrary, I have always favored the path of knights and have studied it diligently until now."

This is a lie. Although Westhead uses all kinds of power, he has actually always been following his own path of Qinghui. Only the path that he can fully master can climb to the realm of gods. If he follows the path created by other gods, he will not be able to ascend no matter what.

Anyway, Qinghui Daotu is a blank slate, and all his cheats are obtained for free through [Granted by the Heart and Soul].

The same is true for [Extinction Light Punishment], which was shared from Mivana not long ago.

Rather than being a combat skill, [Extinction Light Punishment] is more like an instinct generated after a knight reaches a certain stage on the path of knighthood, and can naturally be shared by [the mind and soul].

The Yonglan Knights suddenly understood.

It turns out that Lord Qinghui is already a Knight of Yonglan! He also knows [Extinction Light Punishment]!

That’s right, that’s right, this makes sense, in the mortal world, only the Yonglan Knight has such exaggerated numbers, some knights are just damn talented, it’s not that the way of the knight is crushed, but that the opponent is walking at the far end of the way of the knight!

The Yonglan Knights felt much better instantly. The humiliation they had felt from being trampled upon by strangers suddenly vanished, and they even looked at Westhead with much friendlier eyes.

This is one of our own!

"Well, if that's the case, then it barely meets the requirements, but whether it can be widely recognized is a question."

Uther frowned and said hesitantly.

In the past, the King Cheng Tour had never been attended by people from other countries. Now that the God Ancestor has isolated himself from the mortal world, there is no way to seek certification. Even in the past, it probably wouldn't have been possible, as the God Ancestor didn't care about these things at all.

However, based on Westhead's understanding of [Yonglan Knight God], this god does not mind the sect. As long as there is no transfer payment, He will support it.

"Don't worry, I will take the initiative to seek everyone's approval."

Westhead raised his index finger and said:
"One month. In one month, we will set out from the Dusk Territory to seek the approval and submission of all the Knight Territories. Everyone who is already here, please think carefully. Should you offer wine to welcome my arrival, or reject me with a sharp sword? This is a crucial decision."

Then, Westhead and Myvana turned around and left the shattered duel arena, crossing the boundary river back.

The Qinghui Guards on the other side of the boundary river burst into cheers and escorted their lord back.

The knight lords who watched Westhead and the others leave looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"This expedition?"

"The expedition has to be stopped. Lord Qinghui is right. The pilgrimage is more important than this expedition to gather our will."

Uther shook his head and sighed:

"Lord Qinghui, he is serious."

The other Lord Knights were also thoughtful.

"So we're turning back now?"

"This is the only way. Let's tell everyone else what happened here. It's better to wait and see."

"Given Lord Qinghui's strength, he does have the reason to become king, but that strength is not enough to suppress all the voices."

The knight lords discussed the matter, but most of them centered around the Grand Knight, hoping to hear the opinions of these powerful men.

"Mr. Mavis, what do you think?"

Someone asked the young knight who was walking away with his back turned. The dashing blue-haired girl stopped and smiled:
"I plan to visit Mudeng Territory first. Didn't Lord Qinghui say that Mudeng Territory is open to friends? Although I don't have strong goodwill, I am still qualified to visit the graves, right?"

After returning to the main city of Dusk Lantern Territory, the news of victory was spread, sweeping away the haze of destruction that shrouded everyone's hearts, and the orcs welcomed the triumphant heroes with warm cheers.

"Let everyone relax. They have been tense for a while."

Westhead suggested, "Let's talk about our next plans."

Mivana nodded heavily and said, "Yes! There is one more thing. According to tradition, it is time for Weiss to meet my people."

".That's no problem."

Westhead agreed subconsciously, but he heard something unusual in Mivana's pointed tone, as if he had forgotten something.

Who cares? So that evening, Lord Twilight held a grand celebration banquet inside and outside the city.

The Qinghui Guards, the princess' entourage and the orc villagers, several groups that had nothing to do with each other, sat together harmoniously because of the relationship between their leaders and enjoyed the local specialties of the Mudeng Territory.

The Dusklight Territory is indeed very backward. Today, the Qinghui Territory, even though it is a small border town, can completely defeat the border area of ​​this knight kingdom.

But the countryside also has its own charm. Under the ever-gloomy sky, the warmth and light emitted by the bonfires and kerosene lamps are hard to find in the big cities of the empire.

In the light of the fire, the orcs laughed heartily, raised their glasses and saluted, and expressed their praise generously.

"Cheers to our Lord!"

"To Myvana!"

"And Myvana's mate, Lord Westhead!"

"Long live Lord Westhead!"

"."

The orcs, some strong and some charming, sang and danced, arm in arm. Their singing and dancing were extremely passionate, showing their extremely simple side.

This was a dinner completely different from a court ball. There was no etiquette at all, only the purest joy.

"The beast-eared girl is really civilized."

Westhead's eyes wandered over the beautiful girls with animal ears, some with cat ears, some with wolf ears, some with fox ears, and even some with deer antlers. Without exception, they were all young and beautiful girls, dressed coolly and beautifully, and were all well developed.

This was pure appreciation, with no other meaning, because Westhead was surrounded by Myvana and Leshia, so he had to be honest.

"Does Mr. Weiss like my sisters?"

Myvana heard the man's sigh and excitedly hugged Westhead's neck, rubbing her delicate face and furry ears against him affectionately.

The white fur on the inside of the wolf's ear moved to his cheek, and Westhead had to squint one eye:
"If I like it, of course I like it."

Compared to her, Resia was much more reserved. The silver-haired princess simply held her lover's hand gently and leaned her weight slightly on Westhead.

She sipped the flavored fruit wine, slightly raised her snow-white curved eyelashes, glanced at the orcs around the campfire, and said lightly:

"This is very different from the orcs I know. There are orcs in the empire, but they are all a bit rude. They seem to be acting on instinct and are very aggressive."

"According to common sense, the Dusk Territory is adjacent to the Chaos Realm and has no laws to protect it. People living here should be more likely to go crazy. Why do you seem so gentle?"

Mivana tilted her head and said, "I have never thought about this question carefully. Maybe it's because of what Teacher Viona taught me?"

Leixia: "If enlightenment could have such a great impact on orcs, then the orcs of the empire would have been reborn long ago."

The Holy Tree Empire treats orcs very well, with all kinds of preferential policies implemented, providing them with resources and education.

"I know this, let me tell you."

Seeing that both of them were wrong, Westhead had to show off his knowledge.

Lord Qinghui coughed twice and said:

"As everyone knows, orcs are biological weapons created by Hellenandike. They were specialized against Chaos from the beginning, and their resistance to Chaos corruption can be said to be the best among all mortal races."

"However, precisely because they were born as weapons, if an overly warlike orc is placed in a peaceful environment, the restlessness in their blood will be difficult to express, and they will inevitably become violent and aggressive."

"The Dusk Lantern Territory is close to the Chaos Realm. The bellicosity factor just offsets the Chaos corruption, allowing the orcs to maintain a clear mind."

"Ah, there is such a thing?"

Myvana, a pure orc, had never heard of it before. Her beautiful eyes widened after hearing Westhead's explanation.

"Of course, but it's a secret. Helen Nandike has never explained the details of his transformation to anyone else. I learned about it through some special channels."

Westhead knows all the information in "The Song of Destiny". The amount of text in the game is naturally just the tip of the iceberg compared to the real vast world, but some information is still very crucial.

For example, the most confidential information about Hellenandike can only be found in the capital of the Kingdom of Eternal Mist, the Heart of Mist.

"In that case, aren't these orcs natural born warriors?"

Leixia was indeed someone who knew Westhead's character very well, and she immediately synchronized her thoughts with the latter.

"Ah, yes. Once they are integrated, they can become a very useful aid. But they won't be useful in this pilgrimage battle. We'll have to wait until later."

Westhead nodded and said.

The orcs have very high potential, but it takes time to realize this potential. It doesn't matter. After joining the Qinghui Territory, resources will be poured in and they may be able to build a strong army comparable to the Qinghui Guards.

"Myvana, Myvana"

Suddenly, a gentle call came from the side, and several girls with animal ears came quietly to Myvana. Most of them were orc girls with wolf ears. Although their faces looked quite pure and tender, their figures were quite well developed, which could only be said to be the characteristics of orcs.

Among them there was a girl with animal ears and horns, and she was so plump that it was obscene.

These animal-eared ladies, who were pleasing to the eye, huddled together and looked at Westhead with shy and obsessed eyes:

"Is this your mating partner?"

"Well, Weiss is my mating partner, you all should come and meet him."

Mivana stood up proudly and gave her seat to the animal-eared sisters.

So these girls with animal ears couldn't wait to stick to Westhead and exclaimed:

"Oh handsome human, powerful human."

"What a great male. Myvana, you did a great job, you did a great job!"

"It's so right for Myvana to go out and travel!"

"."

No, what are you doing?
Just when Westhead was puzzled, Miss Knight smiled at Westhead and said:

"According to tradition, please Weiss, sow the seeds for the sisters in my clan!"

Ah, what is that?
Westhead was stunned at first, his brain went blank, then he frowned and remembered something.

By the way, speaking of the customs of the orcs, it seems that many places do have the tradition of sharing a husband, and the Dusk Lantern Territory is the most typical example.

"hiss--"

I was horrified by the orc tradition of sharing husbands.
