Chapter 648: The negotiation (2)
Translator: 549690339
Zhao Hai had told the primordial chaos Sword Saint before because he knew that space was too attractive to him.
The energy in the space was active and abundant. For ninth-grade experts, it was a natural place for cultivation. It could help them break through the final barrier and obtain greater power. Such attraction was too great for a ninth-grade expert, so Zhao Hai was not afraid that the primordial Sword Saint would tell others about the situation there.
After resting for a while in the Qingshi villa, Zhao Hai let them board the Eagle, and so did he. Then, he sent them to the boat by the sea and boarded the boat to the Golden Island. He did not follow them, as he wanted to stay and watch the show.
After the church of Light put the medicine into the water source of the orcs, all they could do was wait. They stood by the water source and waited for the orcs to get water.
However, what made the people of the church of Light anxious was that the orcs might have fetched water the day before, so they didn’t come to fetch water for the whole day after they had drugged the water.
It was not until evening that the orcs came to fetch water, and they took away a lot of water at once. This made the people of the church of Light waiting by the water source excited.
After the meal, the usually noisy orc camp was surprisingly quiet. Those people were worried and entered the orc camp to take a look. They found that many orcs had fallen to the ground and couldn’t get up. Just when they wanted to kill two people, an Eagle’s Cry suddenly came from the sky, which frightened the people of the church of Light. They were very clear that there were still Eagle tribesmen in the sky, so they immediately turned and left the camp to report to the Church of Light.
After making sure that those people had left, the orc camp became lively again. However, this time, they were not having fun. Instead, they were making arrangements to deal with the attack of the Church of Light.
They knew very well that once the Church of Light’s Army knew that they had successfully poisoned them, they would definitely send people to attack. When the time came, they could first destroy those people, and then attack with all their might. They must destroy the Church of Light’s Army.
When runebeck received the news, he immediately gave the order to attack. However, they didn’t know that the orcs had laid a trap for them and were waiting for them to enter.
What happened was very simple. The Army sent by the Church of Light to take the fruits of the battle was completely wiped out by the orcs. Then, the Army of the orcs marched straight into the heart of the Arkas Empire. The two armies were like two sharp arrows, rushing straight to the capital of the Arkas Empire. Along the way, they did not encounter any decent resistance because they had sent out almost all the troops that could resist. It was destroyed by the orcs.
The entire continent was shocked, the Church of Light was shocked, and the Arkas Empire was shocked. Now, the Arkas Empire had almost lost the ability to resist.
This time, the orcs had used a trick to destroy nearly two million soldiers of the Arkas Empire, which was almost equivalent to the entire Defense Force of the Arkas Empire. After all, they had lost a lot of people on the island of gold, and the Arkas Empire was really weak now.
This time, the orcs did not go too far. They did not attack the ordinary civilians. Instead, they directly attacked the nobles, especially those who were related to the Church of Light.
Every time they took down a city in the Arkas Empire, the orcs would make a big fuss. The reason they attacked the Arkas Empire was that the Church of Light had cut off their food.
There was already this news on the continent, but it was only speculation and had not been confirmed. Now that the orcs had said it themselves, how could they be wrong? This time, the Church of Light had completely become a street rat in the Arkas Empire.
The orcs ‘attack this time was also very interesting. They did not want to capture humans as slaves. They only came to steal food. Therefore, they did not Rob the civilians. Instead, they robbed the nobles’ food and the Arkas ‘National Granary.
In fact, by doing this, the orcs would still be snatching the food of the civilians. If the National Granary of the Arkas Empire was robbed, it would definitely affect the food market of the Arkas Empire. In the end, the food prices would rise, and the civilians would suffer. However, the civilians would not want to take the food. They were lucky that the orcs did not come to Rob them, and they would not have any other thoughts.
The Arkas Empire could not hold on any longer, and they had no choice but to seek help from the Roson Empire. The Roson Empire also took the opportunity to negotiate with the orcs.
Of course, the Roson Empire did not want to clean up the mess for the Church of Light, so they did not want to directly fight with the orcs. Instead, they wanted to negotiate with the orcs.
Although the orcs had not yet reached the capital of the Arkas Empire, they were almost there. However, they stopped as soon as the Roson Empire sent people to negotiate. After all, the power of the Roson Empire was there, and they had to be careful. If the Roson Empire was really provoked into joining the war, the orcs would not be in a good position.
The beast King was a very shrewd man. His attack on the human race this time could be said to be very smooth. Although he had lost some men, compared to the previous attacks, his losses were the smallest, but the results were the greatest. At this time, if the human race could really agree to sell them food at a fair price, they could retreat.
Just as Zhao Hai had thought, the orcs did not want to occupy the human world. They were not interested in the colorful world of humans. To them, the grassland was their home and their roots. If they were to enter the human world, sooner or later, the brave orcs would become as weak as the humans.
In the eyes of the beastmen, humans were weak. That was why they had this feeling. They preferred to drink and sing on the grassland.
Zhao Hai played a large part in the beast King’s decision. Weyers had told the beast King about what Zhao Hai had said to him before they left the campsite. The beast King had asked about Zhao Hai’s strength, and Weyers had told the beast King about it. The beast King had no choice but to take Zhao Hai seriously.
Although the beast King admired Zhao Hai, he didn’t take him seriously. However, after hearing from Weyers that Zhao Hai had an Army of nearly a million undead creatures, he had no choice but to take Zhao Hai seriously.
The last enemy the orcs wanted to deal with was the undead creatures because they wouldn’t get any benefits from them. Moreover, if they couldn’t kill a Black Mage, it wouldn’t be worth it to offend him. He could go deep into the Prairie and keep creating undead creatures, which was definitely a terrifying thing.
The Orc King understood that they were in the territory of the humans. If they really offended the Rolin Empire and the terrifying black magician, Zhao Hai, it would not be a good thing for the orcs. Moreover, their main purpose of attacking the Arkas Empire was for food. As long as the food problem was solved, no one would say anything even if they retreated to the orc grasslands. After all, they had already obtained a lot of things.
The purpose of the negotiation was to make the orcs withdraw their troops. Moreover, the king of the Rollin Empire believed Zhao Hai’s words. They had stored a lot of food in advance, which could be used. Therefore, the purpose of the negotiation with the orcs was to make them withdraw their troops. In the future, they would provide food to the orcs at a cheap price.
No country liked war, especially this kind of war. This war was started by the Church of Light, but in the end, it was someone else who had to clean up their mess. This already made the other empires very unhappy. If they sent more people to the war, how many more people would die? They didn’t want that to happen.
