Rumble rumble ~
The sound of wheels suddenly came from the deserted streets. The Orc civilians of Yellow Sand City almost didn't dare to go out of their homes. The alien army that occupied the city was constantly searching for rebels. They were so scared that they hid in their homes and didn't dare to go out. They didn't have much food, and could only eat one meal a day.
The carriages on the streets carried a large amount of food, and the Orcs with a keen sense of smell poked their heads out of their houses.
Bang bang!
"There is relief food today. Bring your house certificate and report to the central square. You can get three days' worth of food."
A group of orc soldiers knocked on the door. Very few Orcs dared to open the door, but after they heard what the soldiers said, they were in a dilemma.
There was food?
Could it be a trap? Should they kill them all at once?
Most of the Orcs still had a wait-and-see attitude. A temporary relief food distribution area had been set up in the central square, but after a while, not a single Orc resident appeared there.
The Queen stood in the square with her right hand on her waist, showing a depressed expression, her eyes staring at the entrance of the square.
"What, there's not a single person."
She said to herself.
The Rabbitman on the side smiled bitterly and said, "After all, such a terrible thing just happened. It's normal for them to feel afraid. Wait slowly, this is the order of Lord Demon King."
Hearing this, a vein popped out on the Queen Mother's forehead.
…
"Strange, why can't I find it?"
Sitting in the room, the Demon King put down the map in his hand. The table in front of him was full of papers of different sizes. These were the Orcs' account books. They were not good at recording, even things related to words, so many lines could be seen on many of the papers. Those were the numbers of the Orcs.
The Demon King sighed. It was the first time he wanted to vomit when he saw words.
Yellow Sand City was one of the main cities where the Orcs produced armor and weapons. But after taking down this city, the first thing the Demon King did was to find a place to forge armor. He wanted to assimilate all the Orc blacksmiths under his banner. These Orc blacksmiths could produce better armor than humans and were very valuable. This was also the reason why he had chosen Yellow Sand City as his first target.
After the Demon King carefully took down the city, he found that there were no blacksmiths in the forging factory. No, rather than calling it a factory, it was more like a large warehouse disguised as a factory. There was no furnace, no workbench, and not even a hammer. There were only boxes of armor and weapons, but these were all tailor-made weapons for beastmen. They were very heavy and not suitable for humans and other demons to use. Therefore, the Demon King gave two sets to his subordinates and generously gave them to his allies.
Could it be that the Orcs had sensed the enemy's invasion and moved away all the blacksmiths and production tools?
No, that's impossible.
The Demon King frowned, propped up his chin, and looked at the map on the table.
If they had noticed, they wouldn't have lost so badly. Moreover, according to the Demon King's investigation, the Beastmen's internal strife had never attracted too much attention. Logically speaking, everything in the city should be normal. Moreover, the shapeshifting monster spies in the city hadn't reported any movement, so the possibility of this was very low.
"In other words, perhaps Yellow Sand City isn't a place of production, but a place of storage?"
The Demon King narrowed his eyes, feeling that things weren't that simple. If Yellow Sand City wasn't a place of production, why did the Orcs call it a place of production? This definitely wasn't a coincidence. Yellow Sand City definitely had a secret that no one knew.
"Come!"
He shouted, and two centaur soldiers appeared in front of the door.
The Demon King stood up.
"Bring me to the captives in the palace."
"Yes! Lord Demon King! "
Many Orcs were imprisoned in the pitch-black dungeon. They were the only rebels who hadn't been killed because these Orcs were the city's managers. They were also quite old, so the Demon King thought that they definitely knew something.
The dungeon was very bright. What lit up this place wasn't the torches on the wall, but the magic ball in the Demon King's hand.
The Orcs, whose eyes had just gotten used to the dark environment, curled up in a corner and covered their eyes with their hands. These noble Orcs would never have thought that one day, the shadows of the iron bars in the cell would appear on their bodies.
The Demon King glanced at everyone and placed his gaze on the oldest Orc.
"I'll ask you a question. If you answer my person honestly, I'll let him go."
"Hmph! Give up, dirty and despicable evil race! We won't tell you anything! "
"One day, I'll skin you with my own hands!"
"You'd better kill us now, or you'll regret it!"
The group of Orcs cursed.
The Demon King's expression didn't change. He ignored their curses and asked indifferently, "Let me ask you, who made the armor and weapons of Yellow Sand City?"
"Are you deaf?!"
"I made it! I used your leg bone as the handle of the axe and your spine as the spear! I used your … "
Just as the Orcs were cursing, the Demon King suddenly raised his hand. In an instant, the oldest Orc suddenly fell to the ground and slid on the ground as if he was pulled by something.
"Ah!! Ah! What are you doing! Ahhh!! "
The old Orc shouted in panic. Just as the other Orcs reacted and wanted to pull him back, the old Orc had already been pulled to the front of the fence. His head leaned against the gap of the fence as if it was stuck and couldn't move.
His eyes widened in fear, and he saw a palm pressing on his head.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."
The Demon King said coldly. A strange magic formation suddenly flashed on the hand he pressed on the Orc's head.
"Ah! Ah!! "
The old Orc opened his mouth wide and screamed. His eyeballs kept rolling up and down, accompanied by trembling as if he had been electrocuted. When the other Orcs saw this, they all shut their mouths and watched in fear.
Mind magic. Under normal circumstances, the Demon King could simply detect the other party's thoughts, but if he wanted to know more complicated information, he had to directly touch the other party's brain like this and control it.
"Will di Kai, laughable, truly laughable. So that's how it is. Hmph! It's Mount Garo. "
The Demon King muttered to himself. The old Orc, whose face was covered in tears and saliva, was paralyzed on the ground. When he heard the words Mount Garo, his expression suddenly became exaggerated and agitated. He gritted his teeth and said, "You! You'll be cursed! Evil race that uses evil magic. Even if we, the Orcs of Yellow Sand City, die, we won't bow our heads to you. One day, Will di Kai will spill your blood on this land! You! You'll fall into the abyss of hell! "
He kept cursing, and the rabbit-person soldier couldn't stand it anymore. He raised the spear in his hand and hit the Orc's face with the handle.
"Shut up! Barbaric fellow! How dare you speak to the Demon King like that! Lord Demon King, do we need to punish him? "
The rabbit-person soldier said angrily.
The Demon King clapped his hands.
"These fellows are already useless."
After he said this, the hearts of the Orcs in the prison thumped, and they fell into despair.
"But you just said that the Orcs won't bow their heads to me. I've decided to take you to see if that's the case."
The Demon King turned around. Suddenly, a force lifted the old Orc up. The prison door opened, and he flew out, following behind the Demon King and leaving this place.
The rabbit-person soldier was stunned. He looked back and found that the Orcs in the prison had all turned to stone.
"Let me go! I want to fight you one-on-one! Despicable bastard! "
The old Orc struggled. Suddenly, a cloth-like thing sealed his mouth. At this moment, the Demon King brought him to a high platform outside the palace.
"Shut up and take a good look. You said that the Orcs won't obey me. How are you going to explain this?"
After the Demon King finished speaking, he took half a step back. The old Orc looked forward. In front of the high platform was a huge square. At this moment, the square was filled with Orcs. They were all fighting to be first, but under the control of the foreign race's army, they were lined up neatly in rows, all for a bit of food.
The old Orc also found that the Orcs gathered in the square were holding pieces of parchment in their hands. He knew that those were the Orcs' house books, which were the proof of their territory.
"Hurry up! If we're done, we won't be able to get food! "
"Yes, if the house is falsely claimed, it'll be troublesome."
Some of the Orcs were discussing. When the old Orc heard this, he was so angry that he kept coughing.
These bastards!! Normally, when Lord Gan Xie gathered them, they wouldn't even come if he didn't urge them! But now, because of a bit of food from the foreign race, they were all fighting over it! The old Orc clenched his teeth. There was an indescribable pain in his heart.
After these stupid cowards gave their information to the enemy, the enemy could use this information to detect foreign enemies. When that time came, the rebel army hidden in the city would have nowhere to hide.
His mouth was covered and he couldn't say anything. He could only watch as his own race forced the rebel soldiers into a dead end. He really wanted to roar and wake these idiots up.
However, what he didn't know was that these Orcs had long been fed up with the harsh system of Will's Venture. Although the Orcs were more loyal than other races, there was no such thing as absolute loyalty in this world, especially for civilians. The Demon King knew what they wanted.
The old Orc knelt on the ground, his eyes lifeless.
At this moment, Zeba arrived with Bru and Derry and saw this scene.
"Mr. Demon King!?"
"Oh, Zeba, you came at the right time. I was just about to look for you." The Demon King turned his head and looked at Derry, saying, "Bring him to the dungeon."
"Yes."
Derry said expressionlessly. He mercilessly lifted the old Orc from the ground and forcefully dragged him away.
"That, I also have something to discuss with you."
Zeba suddenly said.
"Let's talk inside."
The Demon King said.
Blue silently followed at the side, and the three of them returned to the room in the palace.
"I want to ask you some things about Will di Kai."
"Will di Kai? If it's about abilities, I should have told you everything before. "Zeba asked anxiously.
The Demon King smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, it's not about that. Do you know who Will Di Kai's parents are?"
Hearing this, Zeba and Blue looked at each other with a confused expression.
"That, I'm also not sure. Sss, when I saved him when he was 17, he was still a vagrant."
Zeba rubbed his chin and said as he recalled.
"Vagrant?"
The Demon King was a little puzzled.
"Among us Orcs, there are no clans. They are all vagrants. They either made a mistake and were exiled by their clans, or they are the descendants of the exiled, or they are Orcs who seek refuge with other clans," Zeba explained.
He looked weakly at the Demon King and said, "We Orcs are different from other clans. The Kings and Clan Leaders of the past were selected through competition and voting. It has nothing to do with the bloodline of the clan. We rarely pay attention to other people's parents, so I didn't say this last time."
The Demon King naturally knew what Zeba was afraid of.
"I know, but I found some things about Will Di Kai, so I asked out of curiosity."
Hearing this, Zeba heaved a sigh of relief.
"Lord, Lord Demon King! About Will Di Kai, actually, actually, I heard a little from my father when I was young. I don't know if I can help you. "
At this moment, Blue, who didn't dare to speak, suddenly spoke. He was like a shy little girl who didn't dare to raise his head.
"Let's hear it."
"I don't know if it's true. Will Di Kai's mother seemed to be the old Beast Emperor's sister, but for some reason, one day, the Beast Emperor sent his most trusted subordinates to secretly send her away. My father was one of them."
"Is that so? Why didn't you say so earlier?! "Zeba was shocked. He didn't seem to know about this matter.
Blue's father, Bukelo, was the oldest and most loyal subordinate of the old Beast Emperor. The Demon King was very clear about this. But if this was true, why didn't Will Di Kai tell the world about this matter? Instead, he used the identity of a vagrant to usurp the throne. If he revealed his identity, his path to the throne would be much easier.
There must be something fishy about this.
"I, I don't dare to say it. I have no proof."
Blue said, feeling wronged.
"Then do you know where Will Di Kai sent his sister?"
The Demon King asked.
"Well, later on, my father found out that I was eavesdropping, and he never mentioned this matter. Every time I asked him, he would get angry, so I don't know," Blue replied.
"What! You only know half of it. I'm so anxious, "Zeba scolded.
"Sorry, if this is very important, why don't I go back and ask? In order to win this war, I believe my father will tell you. "Blue looked at the Demon King as if he was asking for the Demon King's opinion.
"No, I don't think he will tell you. I'm guessing this is the old Beast Emperor's order," the Demon King said.
Blue nodded in agreement.
"Then do you know about Mount Gallow?"
The Demon King continued to ask.
"Mount Gallow?"
Zeba didn't know why the Demon King said something that didn't seem to have any connection, but he still thought about it.
"Although Mount Gallow is within the territory of the Orcs, both the old Beast Emperor and Will Di Kai are strictly forbidden from entering Mount Gallow. Speaking of which, it's strange. Why are we forbidden from entering Mount Gallow?" Zeba was puzzled.
"Do you know anything?" the Demon King asked Blue.
"No, I know nothing about this place. It's just that my father once said that if I can defeat Will Di Kai one day, he must not let anyone near Mount Gallow. I don't know the exact reason."
Blue said.
This made the Demon King certain of one thing, and that was that there was definitely a great secret hidden in Mount Garuda. He looked at the map. Mount Gallow was 200 miles north of Yellow Sand City. It was surrounded by mountains, and the terrain was complicated. There wasn't a single city.
"Then it looks like I have to take a look."
The Demon King muttered to himself.
