Not long after we gathered the various Beastmen tribes, a special group of Beastmen came to Sargeru.
Their leader was a Beastman Shaman called Leo. Shamans were a sect unique to the Beastmen, and the God they believed in was the Beast God Gudel Ox.
The reason this Shaman was special was because he came from a special tribe. That was the Thunderhammer tribe. The Thunderhammer tribe was a tribe near the Swamp of Pain, and was also the first tribe to be destroyed by the Black Tide.
The people Leo brought with him were the survivors of the Thunderhammer tribe, and most of them were Shamans.
Balck and all the other tribe chiefs met with Leo in the Chieftain's Hall, and Leo told them a shocking piece of news.
As it turned out, the Black Tide had spread from the Swamp of Pain.
At that time, the Black Tide that filled the sky attacked the Thunderhammer tribe. As it turned out, the Black Tide was made up of countless insects.
Among them were the commonly seen Bloodthirsty Killer Mosquitoes, Hornets, Giant Black Ants, Scarlet-Eyed Black Scorpions, and so on. There was another type of insect that Leo and the others had never seen before. They called them Undead Worms.
These worms were very small, but there were a lot of them. Moreover, they could lay eggs on corpses, and the eggs they laid would quickly hatch new Undead Worms. A group of Undead Worms could quickly gnaw a living Beastman until only bones were left. What was even more troublesome was that their shells were very hard, and they weren't easy to kill.
Leo also told us that the Black Tide had become even more rampant than before, and that Sargeru would soon face a battle.
This information was very important to us, and Leo also discovered that the Black Tide's movements were periodic and regular. If we wanted to completely deal with the Black Tide, we would have to go deep into the Swamp of Pain to investigate the source of the Black Tide.
Fawns said that the investigation of the Swamp of Pain could be left to the Iron Wolf Mercenaries and the Demon Hunting Blade, because our goal this time was to investigate the source of the power of darkness.
Balck and the Ox Chief also agreed with Fawns, because they wanted to use the main force of the Beastmen to resist the Black Tide.
Soon, all the tribes agreed that Leo would lead the way, and the Iron Wolf Mercenaries and the Demon Hunting Blade would go to the Swamp of Pain.
On the same day, we left Sargeru under the gaze of Baturu and the others. Baturu chose to stay here, because he had to fight for his tribe.
At this moment, Sagru had already entered Level One Alert. Everyone knew what they were going to face next.
That night, Bulker and Batulu were still patrolling the troops. The beastmen were all desperately preparing for battle, each busy with their own matters.
Some of the Orcs were sharpening their axes, some were practicing combat techniques, and some were transporting war supplies.
Finally, Batulu came to the encampment of the Wolf Army. Wolf Knights were the pride of the beastmen. They were the elites of the elites.
Most of them were members of Baturu and Balk's Frostwolf Clan, as well as some members of the Bloodwolf Clan and Berserker Wolf Clan.
Every clan's name was derived from the name of the wolf clan that had been raised by the family for generations. The frost wolf was snow white and agile, the mad wolf was gray and powerful, and the blood wolf was red and bloodthirsty. The Orc Chief Victor was from the Blood Wolf Clan. Unfortunately, he had been captured by humans.
The chiefs of the other clans were also on standby in their respective barracks. The entire Sargeru was preparing for the coming black tide.
The old, weak, women, and children of the various clans had already been transferred to Sargeru's underground caverns. Everyone who could participate in the battle was rubbing their palms.
On the evening of the second day, the black tide approached Sargeru. No one expected the black tide to arrive so quickly.
Standing on Sargeru's tall watchtower, one could see a black swarm of insects moving towards Sargeru at an astonishing speed.
Soon, the city's alarm was rung. War had arrived!
"Quick! Quick! Get on the city walls and prepare to meet the enemy. "Balk said.
At this moment, the Tigermen Chief Tiger, the Bearmen Chief Olafman, the Minotaur Chief Mari, and the Harpy Queen were already on the city walls, preparing to meet the enemy.
The Cyclops Chief Carmon was waiting below the city because of his enormous size.
Very soon, the boundless black tide had already arrived at the city. The black mass at the front should be the Bloodthirsty Killer Mosquitoes and Hornets.
The catapults on the city walls had already been loaded. They were only waiting for Burke's command.
"Fire!" Following Burke's command, the flags and bugles began to issue orders.
Burning stone balls smashed towards the dense swarm of insects. Some of the insects nimbly dodged. However, there were too many insects. Many of the mosquitoes and hornets were still hit by the fireballs and fell to the ground.
Following closely behind were even more insects and a large number of Undead Corpses. These were the most troublesome enemies.
At this moment, the Tigermen riding Ironback Winged Dragons had already risen into the air. These were the Winged Dragon Knights they were so proud of. The Harpies weren't willing to be outdone. They all flew into the air and released Chain Lightning.
Under Tiger's lead, the Winged Dragon Knights continuously poured oil into the swarm of insects below. Then, they threw down torches, instantly creating a sea of fire.
The Chain Lightning released by the Harpies together was extremely powerful. Swaths of insects were electrocuted and fell to the ground.
However, there were too many insects. There was no end to this swarm. Soon, the Winged Dragon Knights and the Harpies started to run out of stamina.
"We can't kill them all no matter what. Moreover, it feels like the more we kill, the more insects there are. It's as if all the insects in the Beastman Land are gathering here," Harpy Queen Nisha said.
Beastman warriors were constantly being engulfed by the insects and reduced to bones. The number of beastman casualties rose rapidly.
Not only that, but Scarlet-Eyed Black Scorpions and Giant Black Ants also appeared on the ground. These Scarlet-Eyed Black Scorpions were extremely large in number. Their venom was extremely strong, and they were also very small in size.
As for the Giant Black Ants, they were about the same size as the Cyclops. They directly attacked the city gates and city walls. Many of the city walls had already been damaged.
At this moment, there were battles everywhere. The beastman warriors were fighting a bloody battle.
"Guder Ox!" Burke shouted the Beast God's name. At the same time, he swung his battle axe with both hands at the Giant Black Ants.
The Cyclops were the main force fighting the Giant Black Ants. Two or three of them had already died in battle.
The Goblin Ambushers threw bombs at the Scarlet-Eyed Black Scorpions, killing many of them.
Just as everyone felt that there was still hope, they suddenly felt the sky darken.
What kind of monster was this?
That moment of despair spread through everyone's hearts when they saw this monster. This monster could only be described as terrifying.
With a loud bang, the city gates of Sargeru were shattered by this monster.
