Chapter 662 Wolf Garden
Abel finally understood why the orcs and humans had lived completely different lives as he looked at the scene on the outside of Mount Budapest in front of him.Since Mount Budapest had divided the seasons of the Holy Continent into 2, the north of Mount Budapest had fewer resources. Abel was just not sure if these conditions would improve if he went further from Mount Budapest.
The reason why came to the orc empire a month earlier was that he also wanted to take a closer look at the legendary orc empire, besides going to see if that orc priest gathering on Nam Mountain had anything to do with Ancient Sight.
Maybe Abel was the only person who could take a tour around the orc empire so casually. Not long after he went over Mount Budapest, he spotted a large ground of patrolling birds.
Although those birds did not look too different from normal ones, battle fort 03 sensed their contracted energy.
The orc empire valued defense more than Abel expected. Why did the orc empire dedicate this many birds to patrol the entire Mount Budapest?
These patrolling birds were also different from a sky eye. It could only fly back to the report with extreme speed once they spotted a target. They could not share a sight directly, but still, this many birds would still cost a lot.
Luckily he had the battle fort’s invisible ability; if not, he might not even be able to enter the orc empire on a normal sky sparrow.
Abel didn’t know too much about battle, but he could still sense something as strange as this defense. Maybe the orcs were about to make a big move soon!
But by that point, he was already in the orc empire. It was out of the range of the Miracle Spirit, so he could not contact it.
At the same time, the Miracle Wall had protected humans for thousands of years. The orcs shouldn’t be able to destroy it, even if the orc empire had some kind of plan.
Abel sighed; the battle fort had traveled beyond the valley into a large gra.s.sland. But, all the gra.s.s on this gra.s.sland was dried out. Autumn had come early.
He took out the orc tooth map and placed it in front of his head. He had arrived at the wolf garden—the domain of the wolves.
As soon as he entered the wolf garden, he realized the wolves were living a nomadic lifestyle among families.
There were also large groups of sheep scattered on those dried up yellow gra.s.s. They were just like human farmers. The only thing different was that the gra.s.s was not enough for the sheep to get fat; they could only survive at most.
Soon, Abel realized the few nomadic worgen families did not have male adult worgens. They were all elders, mothers, and children.
As the White Cloud kept dragging the battle fort. They went further and further into the wolf garden. Finally, Abel saw the first city within the Orc Empire.
According to the marking on the orc tooth map, this was the mother city of a race. It was made entirely out of mud, so it looked golden brown from the sky.
Other than a few buildings, everything in the city was made out of mud.
The city was clearly built to be a military base. There was a giant stadium right in the center of this city, and the shops had only taken up one-fourth of the s.p.a.ce.
The only odd thing was that there were not many worgens in this mother city. There was no wolf riders training in the stadium. After looking at the size of this city, it should be able to fit a few thousand wolf riders.
Abel stopped for a bit in the sky to give this worgen mother city a deeper look and left. He was not bored enough to dwell in an almost empty city.
He would not let any orcs spot him before he arrived at the Nam mountain in the orc utopia. If not, it would mess up his plan dramatically.
“Wooo!” A wolf howling sound caught Abel by surprise. It was his 5th day in the orc empire. Normally, during the day, White Cloud would keep dragging the battle fort forward while resting on top of it at night.
On the other hand, Abel would bring Flying Flame, White Snow, and Johnson into the Dark World to clean up h.e.l.l creatures.
He had just come back from the Dark World on this fifth day. At the time, White Cloud had already started to drag the battle fort, so he decided to have a little rest to relieve himself of the tiring the Dark World. However, he was disrupted by this wolf howl.
This howl was clearly strengthened by powerful combat qi. A wolf rider captain made it.
“03, can you scan where that wolf rider captain is?” Abel was too lazy to have a look himself even after being surprised, so he directly commanded 03.
“Yes, master, scanning!”
Abel soon received a message. 3 wolf rider captains were fighting next to a river 4 miles from the battle fort.
Abel couldn’t help but twitch. It was almost like all the male adult worgens in this place had vanished these past few days, and he really wanted to know what was going on. Now was the perfect opportunity.
As battle fort 03 continued to scan, the fighting scene of those wolf riders was reflected on Abel’s mind.
2 wolf rider captains were surrounding another wolf rider captain. One of them yelled, “Beecher, come back with me. I will help you beg for mercy. The master has to understand your crime of going away without notice!”
“Carlo, the orc G.o.d summoned me. This is my chance. I will definitely come back as a head wolf rider captain. Just pretend you never knew me!” The wolf rider captain named Beecher yelled back.
“Beecher, the orc G.o.d wants us to fight for the orc empire, not avoid the battle for personal growth!” The wolf rider captain named Carlo said furiously.
“Carlo, can’t you understand? Joining the orc G.o.d ceremony is the only chance for us wolf rider captains. It only happens once every 10 years. Normally only head wolf rider captains are allowed, but this time is different. The empire has gathered all the current head wolf rider captains to fight, so this is my only opportunity to get promoted into a head wolf rider captain. You can not stop me. If you do, I’ll kill you!” Beecher yelled even louder.
Abel was just enjoying himself watching this show take place on his battle fort up the sky, but his heart suddenly tingled when he heard the word orc G.o.d ceremony. Could this be the orc G.o.d priest event on Nam mountain?
Also, what were the orcs about to do? Why did they gather all the head wolf rider captains? Abel started to get worried about the Miracle Wall.
Meanwhile, the 3 wolf rider captains down below began to fight. Abel could clearly see that the wolf rider captain named Beecher was a little more powerful. It could still hold up against the attacks of 2 wolf rider captains of the same rank.
Maybe this could be an opportunity. Abel thought to himself as he placed his hand on his transformation necklace. Soon his bones began to change. His 2 meters tall body was quickly stretched even taller. At the same time, the clothes and armor on his body vanished. Abel had put them back in his portal bag.
Fur began to come out of his skin, and his nails became claws. Soon, he had transformed into a worgen.
He felt a little unsafe taking off his runeword armor. That armor had given him so much increase in defense and spell casting speed.
However, Abel suddenly remembered an armor he had in his Kong Kong Spirit Portal bag. He had rarely worn it since it was not made for humans. It was one of his earliest spoils of war, the ‘Holy Wolf Treasure.’
Abel took the ‘Holy Wolf Treasure’ out from his Kong Kong Spirit Portal bag. It was a legendary armor made with some unknown material. The whole thing was only 5 pounds.
He had done a close examination on this armor when he first became a Grandmaster Blacksmith, but he still couldn’t figure out the material. He also could alter it since one of the special things about this armor was its impenetrable defense.
Even with his current ability, he could not break open the ‘Holy Wolf Treasure.’ But as long as he had it on, physical attacks were basically useless on him.
