Chapter 678
Zhao Mai stubbornly believed that not basking in the sun was not good for the little flower, and he must not let a tree shrink into mushrooms underground, so he dug a passage from the underground base all the way upwards. Then he laid a bacteria blanket in the passage and used the nerve control bundle of the ghost spacecraft to penetrate it. In this way, the little flower could also connect the z insects on the ground.
Xiaohua seemed a little dissatisfied with this plan, but hesitated and refused to say anything. Anyway, the flower pot was in Zhao Mai's hands, and all resistance was ineffective. Xiaohua still had to stay in Zhao Mai's room, bask in the sun every day, and then accompany him every day.
Orcs have a lifespan of about half that of humans, so they are more diligent. Most orcs use this diligence to reduce the average lifespan of other races, while the orcs managed by Zhao Mai are at a disadvantage in this regard, so they have to do farm work, make tools and raise livestock.
They had no talent in this area at all, so most of the work was done by slaves, and the orcs could just fulfill their management responsibilities. As a nominal centurion, Zhao Mai quickly gathered more than 500 orcs and about 300 slaves in the "fortress". The daily food, drink, defecation and sensation of these people is a headache.
"We don't have much food anymore." Darryl checked the grain warehouse every day and was very concerned about this issue. "There are not much food reserves in the surrounding settlements, but robbing them is also an option, especially those who are unwilling to obey your management."
"Want to go to fight?" Zhao Mai nodded: "You can get into trouble with a group of people preparing to attack other settlements, but the key is who do you call to go? Let's agree first, I won't go, I have other things to do."
"Chief..." Darryl pulled the scalp on the back of his neck hard, and said, "If you don't go, it will be difficult to fight. The fire crow set off a lot of things, including the spear and shield in the arsenal. There are still some swords left, but not many people will use them. The most regrettable thing is that those crossbows are all good items made by goblins."
"You can still recognize it after it's burned?"
"You can probably know about the parts, and there are also several powerful orcs from the Fire Crow period who have stayed there, and they also have weapons." The orc said, "Chief, if the food continues to be eaten like this, you will not be able to survive the next harvest. Then the orcs will leave, and we will be like helping others raise the population."
"There is a low-lying area to the west of the settlement? From tomorrow on, let the orcs dig deep and build walls around them. From now on, there will be a breeding area."
"What are you breeding, leader?" Darryl looked at Zhao Mai with his eyes narrowed and carefully observed whether he was crazy. It is said that some orcs will do this. They often hear and see some weird things, and then they will gradually become unconscious and eventually go crazy. Only a few orcs can survive and then they can gain some prophecy abilities, such as weather or movement of beast groups. It would be great if the leader had that ability.
Zhao Mai beat Fadalier and then entered the green vision. In the land of Mordor, the erosion of dark power greatly weakened the effect of the green vision, and many pictures were blurred and difficult to see clearly. However, Zhao Mai did not need too detailed information, just need to know where there were beast groups.
Especially the wolf and the dire wolf, two large wild beasts like to move in groups, which is very threatening to orcs, and even more threatening to slaves who farm and collect outside. Some larger settlements will try to surround and kill wolves, or attack their nests to capture young wolves. With the help of dark power and medicine, the young wolves can be cultivated into mounts, especially the dire wolf mounts, which were once the favorites of powerful orcs.
A large number of orcs went to the north, and the range of activities of the wolves suddenly increased. If they were allowed to do so for one year to one and a half years, under the power of Zoro, these creatures would not naturally reproduce in large quantities, and it would be even more troublesome at that time. Taking advantage of the situation, killing a group of people and driving away a group of people can not only ensure the safety of their surroundings, but also solve some food problems.
Zhao Mai's eyes stretched out along the earth, and soon discovered a large group of dire wolves. It seemed that the orc settlement had been attacked, and the ordinary low fence could not stop the impact of the groups of dire wolves.
The adult dire wolf has a much larger body size and weight than orcs. The sharp teeth and claws can play a role with the assistance of strong leg muscles, which is no smaller than that of regular weapons. The dire wolf has thick long hair, which is tough and hard, which can effectively alleviate the impact and damage of the weapon.
These group of dire wolves took advantage of the dawn to attack and now have reached the end. Their movements are a bit weird. After biting the orcs to death, they do not eat them, but keeping their corpses. This is very abnormal. The animals hunt for food. Even if they compete for territory, they are essentially food and reproduction. The dire wolves not only do not eat the meat on the ground, but also try to separate them. Then they rushed to the orcs' granary in groups and ate the dried meat and some of the food.
A wolf howl came from a distance, and the terrifying wolves pricked up their ears and heard it clearly, and then quickly began to evacuate. Zhao Mai followed the sound, but saw a huge dark shadow.
It was like a burning flame, but the color was black and nothing could be seen except the outline. Zhao Mai knew very well that there was a core inside the black shadow, but he could not tell what it was from his breath. The dire wolf ran past the black shadow and lined up to leave the area.
The black shadow also began to slowly retreat. Zhao Mai followed him for a few steps, but found that he suddenly stopped. An intuitive thought appeared in Zhao Mai's heart, "He found me!" Zhao Mai immediately escaped from the green dream and returned to his body without hesitation.
A haggard goblin reached out to grab it in the air, feeling nothing, and looked at his palm with some confusion. "Strange, it seems that something is there. Could it be my illusion?" It took out a magic wand and recited a spell to the settlement that had just been massacred from afar.
"The dead vengeful spirits returned to this world and used your teeth and mouths to taste the taste of life again." He repeated the spell over and over again until a low roar appeared in the settlement, "Woooo...oh..."
"Go and find food, let the orcs die, and let the goblins become stronger!" He smiled happily, rubbed his hands, and slowly left with his back hunched.
