Walking out of the Red Stone Throne, Bai Xiaowen and the other two were arranged into a spacious and simple wooden house under the suspicious and scrutinizing gazes of the orcs.
This was not because the orcs were mean. In fact, this wooden house was already considered a good building in Red Stone City. Many orcs lived in animal skin tents or in the wild. Anyway, the orcs had thick skin and flesh and were not afraid of wind and rain.
In the wooden house, the three of them sat in a circle.
"Brother, what do you think is the possibility of King Kamush joining the alliance?" Considering that Ahon was involved in the discussion, Li Shuyi changed the way he addressed Ahon.
Bai Xiaowen said, "No matter what, both sides have a basis for cooperation. I don't know much about the orcs' upper echelons and don't have enough information, so it's difficult to make an accurate judgment. However, I'm still optimistic about the prospects of the alliance. "
Li Shuyi said, "The orcs' upper echelons? The ones who appeared in the Red Stone Throne today should be the upper echelons. "
Ahon nodded. "That should be right. With Dior's reputation in the entire continent, his personal visit is not a small matter. As long as the orcs' upper echelons are qualified to appear, they should not be indifferent."
Bai Xiaowen said, "I just checked. Other than King Kamush, there are three other orcs worth paying attention to. On Kamush's right is Orc Marshal Kil'Gaz. Further behind is Wolf Taming Master Ruhr and Great Shaman Isgu on his left. "
Li Shuyi knew that Bai Xiaowen had used insight to see the information of the three orcs' upper echelons. As for Ahon, he did not find it strange. Was it strange that a prophet knew your name the moment you met him? Ahon had already experienced the ability of the trickster.
"Wolf Taming Master!" Li Shuyi was energized, but he wisely did not continue speaking.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and nodded slightly. "Yes, maybe orcs are not good at hiding their true thoughts. I can feel the attitudes of these three orcs' upper echelons … Other than Marshal Kil'Gaz, the other two are quite friendly to us."
"Kil'Gaz …"
Ahon coughed lightly. "I've also heard of this person's name in Camelot. The Beastmen's attitude towards war is far more fanatical than other races, and Jilgaz is the representative of this type of Beastman. "
"Then this is a pure war party," Bai Xiaowen said, nodding. "No wonder I felt that his eyes were not right when he looked at me, as if he wanted to cut me into pieces. However, King Kamosh and the other two orc higher-ups should choose to join the alliance army. "
"What if they are war maniacs like Kil 'gaz?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "That's impossible. If the leaders of a country were all such reckless warmongers, it would be impossible for the country to survive. So what if they're warlike Orcs? To be able to become a high-ranking leader who controls the fate of a country, they definitely think more than ordinary Orcs … "
Suddenly, Bai Xiaowen stopped talking and said softly, "Someone's coming."
The three of them tacitly kept their mouths shut. After a while, footsteps could be heard.
It was the orc shaman, Isgu, who came to visit.
"Hello, Prophet." Isgur spoke slowly. "Please forgive me for my lack of hospitality."
"It's okay. Compared to these minor details, I hope that Your Excellency the Great Chieftain can make a decision as soon as possible. We don't have much time to waste, "Bai Xiaowen said.
Great Shaman Isgu nodded slightly.
"Then, Your Excellency should have something to discuss with me, right?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
"Yes," Isgu Shaman said slowly. "Previously, in front of the throne, I heard His Excellency the Prophet say that the continent is supported by pillars. The drowning of the Amusha Forest was due to the collapse of the Leyline Pillars. On behalf of the Great Chieftain, I want to ask a question … How many of these pillars are there? Are there any under the Orc Kingdom? "
Bai Xiaowen thought for a while and said, "I can't say for sure how many Leyline Pillars there are. But each pillar corresponds to a map of the continent. Your Excellency only needs to think about how large the area of the Amusha Forest was submerged to know how large the area supported by a Leyline Pillar is. Then, you can calculate the general number of Leyline Pillars on the continent. "
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said again, "Your Excellency's second question, because of the Prophet's special reasons, I can't directly tell you whether it's true or not … However, I saw the answer in the prophecy tablet. This answer should be enough."
The Grand Shaman Isgur blinked his turbid eyes.
"I understand. The scene that can appear in the prophecy tablet is undoubtedly an important scene of destruction … Since Your Excellency the Prophet saw the Orc Kingdom in the tablet, there must be such a pillar supporting the Orc Kingdom underground. "
Bai Xiaowen tilted his head. "Your Excellency, do you believe me?"
Isgu said, "I have special skills in distinguishing between truth and lies."
With that, Isgu got up and said goodbye. "I will report the situation truthfully to the Great Chieftain. The civil war on the Blacktide Continent has lasted for too long … Perhaps it's time to unite. "
"Thank you for your understanding." Bai Xiaowen got up and sent him off.
Isgu walked to the door and turned back to ask, "If Your Excellency the Prophet has any additional needs, please tell me."
Here, Isgu used honorifics.
Bai Xiaowen pretended to think for a while, then said, "I plan to stay in Redstone City for a while to understand the customs of the Orcs … In my opinion, only by understanding and respecting each other's customs can we truly live in peace. Please allow me and my companions to move freely in Redstone City. "
"Your Excellency the Prophet is right. Mutual understanding is an important factor in peace."
Isgu smiled so widely that the wrinkles on his face were about to bloom. He nodded and said, "Your Excellency the Prophet is not familiar with the roads in Redstone City. I will find a guide for you. As long as he leads you, you can go anywhere in Redstone City … "
"Thank you for your trouble." Bai Xiaowen bowed and performed the Blacktide Continent's human etiquette. He understood that the Orcs' probing had ended.
The Orcs did not have the habit of dilly-dallying. After confirming the necessity of the alliance, King Kamush met Bai Xiaowen again and made it clear that they could call a truce and join the alliance.
Bai Xiaowen took out the two agreements he had drawn up before leaving. One was a truce agreement that Queen Camelo and the Elven Queen had already signed and sworn to their respective gods. The other was a guardian alliance agreement. Currently, only Queen Camelo and the Elven Queen had signed. The other five signatures were still empty.
King Kamush happily signed the two agreements and swore in the name of the God of War.
These leaders of the Spirit World swore in the name of their gods. In fact, it was equivalent to notarizing the rules of the Spirit World. It was much more reliable than the agreements between countries in the Common Era on Earth.
