The corners of Bai Xiaowen's mouth curled into a smile.
Master Ruhr's words seemed ordinary, but they verified one of Bai Xiaowen's conjectures.
The upper echelons of the Orc Kingdom were not united.
To be precise, Ruhr, the wolf tamer, and Isgu, the great shaman, were the "moderates" among the Orcs. Marshal Kil'Gaz was the "warmonger" of the Orcs. As for King Kamush, his current inclination was unclear, or perhaps he was just playing the role of controlling the balance.
Don't think that the Orcs in the Wilderness did not care about politics. To be able to build such a large Orc Kingdom, the upper echelons' struggles were all about politics.
This verified conjecture did not directly affect Bai Xiaowen's plan to implement the Awakening Skill at this stage, but it was beneficial to the future situation of the Orc Kingdom and even the stability of the Covenant.
This meant that if Bai Xiaowen opposed Marshal Kil'Gaz, he would not anger the entire Orc Kingdom. He would even receive a certain degree of support from the moderates. Even King Kamush would tacitly agree.
"The Wrath Claw is still very young. It still has room to grow," Bai Xiaowen said casually.
Master Ruhr shrugged.
However, before he could speak, a hoarse voice rang out.
"No matter how your wolf grows, it is not qualified to be the mate of the Mother of Wargs, Harleken! Human prophet, you'd better know your place! "
Bai Xiaowen, Li Shuyi, and Ruhr looked in the direction of the voice. As far as their eyes could see, a tall red-skinned Orc strode over, followed by a giant black wolf.
This red-skinned Orc was Kil'Gaz, the Orc Marshal.
The giant black wolf behind Marshal Kil'Gaz was abnormally powerful. Its size was comparable to the Mother of Wargs, Harleken. Its fur was shiny, and it exuded a fierce aura. There was no doubt that this was Harleken's mate, the dire wolf Fenrir.
Even from Bai Xiaowen's point of view, Fenrir and Harleken were more "compatible".
Wrath Claw, who was standing in the middle of the two, was inferior in terms of size and psionic aura (level). It looked like a younger brother among younger brothers.
"Marshal Kil'Gaz, you seem to have a deep prejudice against me." Bai Xiaowen began to set a trap without batting an eyelid.
Kil'Gaz snorted, "I'm not targeting you. I don't have a good impression of all humans and elves."
"Fortunately, you don't have the final say in the Orc Kingdom. Otherwise, it would be difficult to reach the Continental Treaty." Bai Xiaowen shrugged and revealed a gentle smile.
This sentence seemed to poke Kil'Gaz's's heart. He snorted again, "Forming an alliance with you was a wrong decision … Time will prove my words!"
Fenrir, the giant wolf behind Kil'Gaz, strode forward and pushed aside the Wrath Claw. It was this gentle push that made Bai Xiaowen squint slightly. Fenrir's strength was probably close to 70 points, much higher than the Wrath Claw!
Looking at Fenrir's slender and streamlined body, he knew that this fellow was the same as the Wrath Claw. They both specialized in agility. If the strength of the secondary attribute was so high, then how high would the agility of the main attribute be? It could be imagined.
Bai Xiaowen quietly used [Insight] to check the information of the giant wolf Fenrir. As for Kil'Gaz's information, he had already seen it when he first met King Kamush. He was a Level 10 strength type Rare Leader.
The giant wolf Fenrir pushed aside the Wrath Claw. With the arrogant attitude of a lion patrolling its territory, it entered the Mother of Wargs' hut and nudged Harleken's head with its big head. And Harleken's attitude towards Fenrir was obviously much more enthusiastic than towards the Wrath Claw.
Kil'Gaz revealed a proud smile, then his face turned cold. "Human prophet, the Red Top Mountain camp is not a place you should be. I advise you to leave immediately! "
Bai Xiaowen tilted his head and looked at the guide Murkan. "I remember that I received permission."
"Yes … It's like this." Murkan shrunk his head and squeezed out these words. He was a civilian staff member and did not dare to offend Kil'Gaz. The latter's Shadowblade Clan was very powerful. Even if Murkan's teacher, Isgu the Great Shaman, was here, he would still have to show some respect to Kil'Gaz.
"I declare that the permission is invalid!" Kil'Gaz shouted loudly.
"Marshal Kil'Gaz, don't go too far. This is the Red Top Mountain. Dior the prophet is my guest! "Wolf Taming Master Ruhr said with a sullen face.
"Hmph, sooner or later you will sell the future of the beastmen to the cunning outsiders. You are betraying the tribe! "Kil'Gaz roared.
Not to mention the quarrel between the two high-ranking beastmen, the two giant wolves in the hut were rubbing against each other. It felt like a gun was about to explode.
"Woo … Woo …"
The Wrath Claw let out a low threatening growl. The white fur on the back of its neck stood up.
Bai Xiaowen laughed in his heart. It was normal for the husband and wife to be intimate. As a third party, you should know better. Don't make it seem like you were being NTR.
The arrival of Kil'Gaz and Giant Wolf Fenrir was within Bai Xiaowen's plan.
The Red Top Mountain camp was considered an important military base for the beastmen. As the marshal, Kil'Gaz must have known that Bai Xiaowen, the human prophet, was visiting. It was reasonable for him to rush over and chase him away. Even if Kil'Gaz did not appear this time, Bai Xiaowen would still come to provoke him next time.
The Wrath Claw's threat made Giant Wolf Fenrir feel a little angry. It stood up and lowered its body. The fur on the back of its neck also stood up. Its gray eyes were full of warning.
On the other hand, the mother of the mount wolves, Harleken, was quite leisurely. It did not have the slightest anger of being disturbed in its "married life". It lay down lazily again. No one knew if it looked down on the Wrath Claw's threat or if it was used to the male giant wolves fighting for favor.
"Take care of your dog, human prophet!" Kil'Gaz suddenly pulled out his machete and slashed it in the air.
"That's what I wanted to say, Kil'Gaz."
This was the straightforward Beastmen Kingdom. Bai Xiaowen simply dropped the honorifics and called him by his name. "In my opinion, the Dire Wolf you're raising is only good for its appearance. It's not worthy of the mother of the mount wolves. It's better for you to bring it home to guard the door. "
Guide Murkan's expression changed drastically. Bai Xiaowen changed his previous gentle attitude and became tit-for-tat. In the Beastmen Kingdom, such verbal conflicts would most likely turn into violence …
The wolf taming master Ruhr's expression changed. He frowned, thinking about something.
As expected, Kil'Gaz was angry.
"Fenrir is my partner! You insulted it, which is equivalent to insulting me! "
Bai Xiaowen said calmly, "The Wrath Claw is also my partner."
"Human prophet, I want to duel with you!" Kil'Gaz roared.
"I'm happy to oblige, but I want to add one more condition."
Bai Xiaowen raised a finger. "The Wrath Claw and Fenrir also want to duel. They have to go through a real fight to determine who is the most perfect mate for the mother of the mount wolves, Harleken! "
