I'm not that kind of orc

All right, see you in the incinerator.

Idols always have an unknown side (3)

In the end, I found out that not only Roland and Miria, but even Tolivia are highly respected by the human army.

When I returned to the fortress, I saw Tolivia and Lieutenant Testa walking from a distance together, surrounded by a group of people from Ulala.

Although Tolivia kept a cold face the whole time, those humans never dispersed, even if Testa tried to yell at them to disperse them, it was of no use at all.

In the end, it was Tolivia herself who became impatient. She glanced at the humans following her with a straight face, and then lightly opened her red lips, and said forcefully, "Get out!"

For some reason, not only did those humans not show any consternation or embarrassment, but they burst into cheers after hearing her voice.

Although it always feels like something is wrong, Tolivia is sure that Tolivia is as popular as Roland and Miria on the human side.

These three people are all celebrities who have experienced the war in the abyss, and they may have passed down certain achievements. At the same time, they are outstanding in their respective fields. It is only natural that they have accumulated amazing popularity in decades.

From this point of view, it is not easy to be admired by others. You are often disturbed by others, and you have to work hard to maintain the image that the other party has set up for you in your heart.

Well, I don't need to worry about such things.

Then at night, the reinforcements from the Bloodaxe and the Hunting Tooth clans finally arrived at the Molten Iron Fortress.

After learning the news, I went to the gate of the fortress to greet them, and just in time I saw the orc warriors lined up holding torches and entering the city, with my acquaintance walking in the front.

"Brother!!" Wacker waved his hand vigorously at me from a long distance away, calling me loudly.

I was also very happy to see him, and strode forward, ready to give him a firm hug.

But this guy stopped abruptly when he was about five steps away from me, and then stood upright and gave me a military salute.

Not only him, but the other warriors from the Bloodaxe Clan and the Shouya Clan behind him also stood still in line and saluted me imposingly.

This unexpected scene made me stunned for a moment: "You... what are you doing?"

"We!" Wacker spoke first, "I feel great admiration for Brother Brock, who defeated the chief of the Shouya clan and liberated the heroic spirit of Azak!!"

"Incomparable admiration!!" The orc warriors behind him repeated, and the voice resounding through the sky attracted people on the city wall and around to watch.

Damn it, what are these guys doing out of the blue?

Wacker's cry is not over yet: "I feel great admiration for Brother Brock, who has protected the tribe from the flames of war and also facilitated the alliance between the tribe and the outside world!!"

"Incomparable worship!!" The people behind continued to repeat, and the momentum of the sound wave was so strong that it seemed to be able to knock down the tent.

"Broc is the only one who can rely on ingenuity to seek survival for the tribe, and who can ride a dragon and charge forward in battle! We are extremely honored to be able to fight side by side with a warrior like you!!"

"Incredibly honored!!"

Finally, Wacker opened his arms to me excitedly: "Brother, the brothers here all volunteered to join the army to follow you!!"

"We will follow you to the death!!" The soldiers raised their arms and shouted.

What's going on, this is a bit like a swearing-in meeting and a bit like a cult scene... It makes me feel uncomfortable.

After a long time, I was finally able to mobilize the stiff muscles on my face, and I asked Wack: "You guys... what the hell are you doing?"

"Brother, we've all heard about it!" Wake excitedly came over and patted me on the shoulder, "Brother, you liberated Lord Azak's heroic soul in the previous guard battle, right? You won the duel." killed him!"

"That's right, but that's..." I tried to explain the reason fully to him.

Strictly speaking, the victory in that battle and even the final duel was actually handed in by Azak. He put the mission of protecting the tribe first, and he did not hesitate to sacrifice himself for it.

However, I just opened my mouth and didn't say a few words. Wacker continued to talk happily: "We have heard about your heroic deeds here. The old chief will tell us as soon as he receives news from the front line. I heard that There is a demon pretending to be a lord here, but you saw through it at a glance, the real body of the demon was five meters high and ten meters long, but you chopped off his head with an ax, right?"

It’s about the Mirror Demon who transformed into the Marquis of Greed and then transformed into the queen. Strictly speaking, the queen should kill it herself. I just assisted her to create a chance for her victory. Was it so exaggerated?

"No, there is this demon, but I didn't solve it alone..."

I opened my mouth to try to explain, but Wacker, who was so excited that he got carried away, interrupted me again: "I also heard that you also easily slaughtered a thousand synthetic beasts and chopped off the head of the enemy general, is that right? ?”

This should be about the fact that I took off the head of the alchemist Drakeway under the siege of synthetic beasts.It is true to remove the head of the general, but whether it is the number of synthetic beasts on the scene or my actual record, this statement is obviously exaggerated.

"No... where did you hear all this!?" I grabbed his shoulder and asked.

"Some were told by the old chief himself, and some were newsletters from the front line that we heard on the way here." Wacker's eyes were shining, "Brother, you are really amazing!!"

Um?What did the old chief say?

If I think about it carefully, I haven't contacted the old chief since I left the tribe, and the one who has kept in touch with the old chief... seems to be Roland.

Could it be that guy added oil and vinegar to my deeds?No, not necessarily, maybe she conveyed the news briefly, and then the old chief relayed it to the tribe, and then it changed one by one in the process of spreading among the tribe.After all, rumors are such unreliable things in the first place, and it is not surprising that they will become more mysterious as they spread.

In other words, from the tribal defense battle to supporting Helgia, my reputation for being active on the battlefield has spread in the Valley Reservation with an astonishing momentum, and I have even gained so many admirers thousands of miles away Run all the way to follow me.

If you look carefully, most of this team are fighters younger than me.

"Originally there were more people who volunteered to follow you, big brother, but the reconstruction work on the tribe's side is in great need of manpower, so the old chief personally did a screening. Don't worry big brother, those who stand here are the best of the best , I will never embarrass you!" Wacker happily patted me on the shoulder.

Looking at this pair of eyes full of expectations for me, I suddenly felt great pressure.

Being revered by others, it seems that it really is not an easy thing.

Idols always have an unknown side (4)

The small team sent by the Bloodaxe and Shouya clans is the last support army that is scheduled to gather here.

After a night of reorganization and arrangement, the next morning, our large troops set off from the Iron Water Fortress and marched northeast along the predetermined route.

The troops were not all marching together, but were divided into three parts-the first was the airship of Hergia, the second was the mixed cavalry, and then the mixed infantry.After the scouts ascertain the situation ahead, three troops with different mobility will march along the same predetermined route in different orders.

And I don't belong to any part of this.

Because I am the scout who opened the way and opened the field of vision-to be precise, I, and the dragon queen who carried me.

"Hey, slow down! I can't see the situation on the ground clearly when you fly like this!?" I shouted while lying on the dragon's back.

But the queen who was carrying me didn't mean to slow down at all: "Slow down? Do you know how boring I am staying in that castle by myself these days when you are busy? It's rare to accompany me out for activities today, so don't say it's a disappointment That's it!"

The previous battles in the valley where the tribe lived and on the territory of Alsena were all opened up by relying on the powerful mobility of the queen. The dragon queen, who can fly at high speed in the sky and easily gain air supremacy, is undoubtedly the strongest on our side Great help, so this time I was also entrusted by Arsena and Roland to find the dragon queen who had been idle in the fortress for nearly half a month, and asked her to help me fly to the front of the marching troops to find out the route.

She agreed very readily, but when I sat on her back for a long time and was carried by her to take off, this guy actually pulled up to full speed in just a dozen seconds.

If I hadn't called on the wind spirit to provide me with protection, the oncoming wind pressure alone would have been enough to knock me off the dragon's back.

But at this speed, it is difficult for me to detect the ground.If you get a little closer to the ground, the scene below will flash across your field of vision like a revolving lantern, and there is no time to confirm it, but if you are too far away, it will be difficult to see the details of the ground.

I said why is this dragon queen the same as the domesticated wolf in the tribe?I panicked after not going out for a walk for a few days, but once I let it out, I immediately went crazy.

Seeing her look as if she was locked in the house and came out to let the air out, I couldn't help but feel a little puzzled: "I said, haven't you been going around by yourself these days? No one in the fortress can I can stop you!"

"Flying alone without anyone to talk to, it's boring." The queen said quietly, with a certain dissatisfaction in her voice, "Do you remember? I asked you to clear up the time several times, but You, as my contractor, have refused! You are so brave, Brock."

"I see, I was negligent, please slow down first, please?" I reluctantly recognized Bo, "This investigation is related to the safety of the entire army, it is really important."

"Ann, do you really think that my mind is so narrow-minded as to care about you?" The queen suddenly laughed, "Do you think your eyes are more useful than mine for investigation?"

"Eh?" I froze for a moment.

"I'm already watching for you. I told you before that you are not a flying creature. In terms of high-altitude vision, your level is not enough for me. If I find something suspicious, Naturally, I will remind you." The queen said lightly, "There is no problem along the way, but there seems to be a city ahead."

"That should be Shata City, our first goal." I frowned upon hearing that.

I have seen our planned marching route. As the main force supporting the capital of Helgia, our mixed force has the most enemy-occupied points on the planned route.And the nearest one is Shata City, which is occupied by the enemy in Helgia.

It was scheduled to take two days for the entire army to march overnight, but under the sprint of the dragon queen at full speed, it arrived in an hour.

"I can already see it."

When the queen said this, I hadn't seen anything on the white skyline in front of me. Although the orc's farsightedness was not bad, it was far from enough to see in front of the giant dragon.

It took about a few minutes before I was able to see the small city surrounded by tile walls.

The scale of the city is not large, and it cannot be compared with Muling Town in Arsena's territory.The city didn't seem to be very lively. According to Arsena, the city was temporarily abandoned a long time ago because of its weak defense facilities and its small size.When news came that the nearby big city had been captured by the enemy, Shata City was evacuated in an orderly manner.The enemy then took the abandoned city and used it as a stronghold, and now the city has apparently been transformed into a military fortress.

And now, Helgia, who has officially launched a counterattack, wants to take it back.

The empress lowered the flight altitude a bit, and circled around the outer part of Shata City in order to observe the scene in the city carefully.

"It's really a group of demons dancing wildly." The queen said with emotion.

I looked at it and not only frowned.

The scale of the city is small, so there are not many enemies stationed here.What people care about is the composition of the enemy - in the past, the enemy's troops used the giant beasts captured from the wild beasts, the demonized creatures captured from the magic realm, and the synthetic beasts made from these creatures as the main combatants. However, there are some strange-looking biological arms in this sand tower city.

Is it a new type of alchemy creature?No, it's unlikely. The enemy's chief alchemist, Drakeway, was killed by me. They may still retain the technology of making synthetic beasts, but without the core personnel, the technology in this area should not be able to innovate so quickly. .

"Trouble...get closer." I suggested to the queen.

The queen lowered the flying height slightly, allowing me to observe the strange creatures moving in the city more carefully.

These creatures are completely different from synthetic beasts. They have almost no identifiable biological characteristics on their bodies, not to mention strange looks, and they are not uniform.

But I still recognize them, because I have not dealt with such creatures once or twice.

"It's a demon." I frowned.

That's right, those creatures of different shapes exuding the aura of chaos are undoubtedly demons. Although they are incomparable to those demon lords I have seen before, they have the same structure and the same aura.

Although the enemy army in this city is still composed of synthetic beasts as the main force, about [-]% of the army is composed of demons.

Idols always have an unknown side (5)

Could it be that the enemy has begun to summon demons on a large scale to expand their forces?

Although it's not impossible...

I learned some knowledge about demons from Roland and the related books she provided me.

Demons come from the abyss of chaos and are special creatures made of magic.They were born from the chaotic magic power naturally flowing in the abyss, and then evolved through mutual devouring, gradually evolving into more complex and advanced forms.Although this evolutionary method is cruel, it is extremely efficient for individuals.During the evolution process, the power of thousands of demons will gradually concentrate on those surviving powerful individuals, such as those abyss lords with different abilities, and the demon king who once shook the entire continent.

This special way of birth and survival determines the essence of demons, which are completely different from real creatures.

Strictly speaking, Vanessa is not a real demon. Her origin is Feilan's familiar who used herself as a template. During the production process, Feilan was endowed with the characteristics of a demon because Feilan used the demon ring to transform the magic attributes. It also became an independent demon-like magical creature because it accidentally cut off the direct connection with the caster.But in essence, she is still a familiar created by elf techniques.

But the real devil is different from her, there is no so-called "humanity".Summoning demons is actually a very dangerous thing. Unlike those serious familiars, demons have no so-called loyalty at all.

The principle of making the summoned demons obey the caster can be summed up in only two words: intimidation and temptation.The spellcaster either binds the demon with elaborate pacts and magical powers stronger than the demon's, forcing it to obey his commands.Either offer magic power as a sacrifice, and reach a consensus transaction with the devil.When facing those powerful abyss lords, it is often necessary to use these two methods together.

Once the summoned demons realize that the caster cannot give more benefits, or the caster has lost the means to restrain them, they will betray without hesitation—just like the Lord of Shadows summoned by Mudar in front of me before, just Because Mudar lost the demon ring that maintained the binding contract, the Lord of Shadows immediately turned his attack target on him.

It's okay to summon some abyss lords with special abilities to change the situation of the battle, but it's definitely not a good deal to summon demons on a large scale to expand the army.Even if you capture and kill innocent residents to summon demons, you still have to bear the risk of large-scale summoned demons getting out of control. After all, demons are extremely aggressive against their own kind and other creatures.In terms of long-term consideration of war as a unit, demons are definitely not an ideal unit.
