Chapter 243 Secret move
When Zhao Hai heard what Laura said, he felt that there was something in her words. He looked at Laura in confusion and said: "What does this mean?"
Laura He glanced at Zhao Hai and said with a smile: "It means that those liars are not Real businessmen all have strong backgrounds."
Zhao Hai was stunned and said: "You mean, who ordered those scammers to do this? "
Laura smiled bitterly and said: "It can still be Who are those who are afraid of the powerful orcs? Among them are the Versail family and the royal family of the AKS empire. Many businessmen on the orc grasslands are their eyes and ears. As long as they discover which orc tribe there is. Very powerful, the two of them will find a way to make Those tribes have become weak. If you want to make a tribe weak, there is no more ruthless trick than using deception. This trick does not require much manpower, nor much financial resources, nor the use of force, to reach them. desired purpose, so many people are using it.”
Zhao Hai really didn't expect that it was because of this. He was stunned for a moment and then said: "No wonder Yale interrupted Wells just now. It seems that Yale also regards us as such liars. It's also my fault. What I said just now is too harsh." It’s full.”
Laura smiled and said, “It’s no wonder you said that. It’s the truth, it’s just that Yale doesn’t believe it. After more contact in the future, they will believe it. By the way, Brother Hai, do you think there is something strange about Wells’ camp?”
Zhao Living Fee nodded and said: "It's a little strange, this camp is full of combatants. There is no woman, which seems a bit unreasonable."
Laura nodded and said: "I can see it too, but from the look of Wells, it doesn't look like he has anything important to do. , why did they come here?”
Meg, who has been silent, opened. He said: "Could it be that Wells also came out to practice? Wells is the seventh son of the patriarch of the Hercules Bull Clan, which is equivalent to a prince. Human nobles usually let their children go out to practice. Ers’ status is also a noble, maybe he came out for training, right?”
Laura and Zhao Hai were stunned, and then Laura couldn't help but chuckled: "It seems that we have made things too complicated. Yes, I have also heard that the princes of the big races of the orcs will also come out to practice. Yes, Wells seems to be the same, but he is besieged by the Jackal Clan. This thing is also strange."
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "This thing is a bit strange, but it is not what we should be concerned about anymore. Anyway, we have achieved our goal and solved those jackals. People from the dog tribe, aren't they? And I also Those from the Jackal Tribe have been put away. Unfortunately, there are none alive, but there are still two alive mounts from the Jackal Tribe, and they are now in the warehouse."
Zhao Hai after the battle. , and received all the corpses of the jackal clansmen into the space, Afraid that Yale and the others would become suspicious, Zhao Hai also used the Black Mist Technique to cover the entire battlefield, and then collected the bodies of the Jackal Clan members. He was not in a hurry to turn the Jackal Clan people into immortals. Creature, he also wanted to get some information from the Jackal people.
But he couldn't let Wells and Yale know, so he used black mist to cover the battlefield. When the black mist disappeared, the bodies of the jackals also disappeared. It would make Yale and others think that Zhao Hai had turned the corpses of the jackals into undead creatures and received them in his summoning space.
This is also a common practice for black magicians on the mainland. After killing the enemy, they usually turn the enemy into an undead creature and then collect it into their own summoning space. This not only can frighten the enemy, but also You can add some strength to yourself. Therefore, Yale and Wells had no doubts about what Zhao Hai had done before.
Laura nodded and said: "We'd better wait until night to deal with the matters of the jackals. We don't know when Wells will come to us, so we'd better not enter the space." Zhao Hai also nodded, He had not thought about entering the space at this time.
Zhao Hai and the others don’t know that Wells and Yale are also discussing them now.
As soon as he saw Zhao Hai and the others leaving the tent, Wells said to Yale in confusion: "Teacher, why don't you let me continue talking with Zhao Hai? If he has a lot of food, and If it’s very cheap, that’s a good thing for our Hercules Cow Clan.”
Yale glanced at Wells, shook his head and said, “I don’t think what Zhao Hai said is true. Is there really food in it? Don’t forget it. Lessons from the Black Bear Clan five years ago. "
The lesson from the Black Bear Clan five years ago that Yale refers to was the incident of being deceived. At that time, a human businessman who had cooperated with the Black Bear Clan many times agreed. The Black Bear Tribe wanted to prepare food for them for the winter. Because the previous cooperation had been very pleasant, the Black Bear Tribe did not think that the other party would lie to them. As a result, the Black Bear Tribe did not buy food for the winter from other merchants.
But in the end, the human businessman disappeared and never appeared on the grassland. By the time the black bear tribe discovered that they had been deceived, it was already too late. They had not saved any food that winter, and the snow was heavy in winter, making it difficult for them to send troops to plunder. The entire black bear clan is in danger of running out of food.
In the end, the Black Bear clan had to eat argali and other magical beasts to tide over the difficulties. Even so, many slaves of the Black Bear clan starved to death. The Black Bear clan, which was once strong, became weak. If it were not for their strong fighting power, If so, I'm afraid it would have been destroyed.
At that time, this incident caused a huge response in the Orc Grassland. For a period of time, all the races in the Orc Grassland stopped doing business with human businessmen. Many human businessmen lost their money because of this reason. .
When Wells heard what Yale said, he couldn't help but be stunned and said: "No way, I don't think Zhao Hai is like that kind of person, and he is also holding the friendship flag of the orc tribe, teacher?" Are you worrying too much?" Yale shook his head and said: "It's always good to be careful. We must always remember the lesson of the Black Bear Clan. No matter whether Zhao Hai has the food or not, we can't put all the treasure on him. .”
Wells didn't object to this at all. Putting all the treasure on one person was really too risky and he wouldn't do it, so he didn't object to Yale at all.
Yale looked at Wells and continued: "Wells, don't you think it's strange that we were attacked today? When did those local dogs have the courage to attack us?"
Wells was stunned and said: "Teacher, what do you mean?"
Yale said: "This thing is weird. Although there are many native dogs who dare to rob anyone, when they used to rob, there were old men and women in the team. They usually acted as a tribe. But these people who came to attack us today are all young and strong. An old man and a woman, and have you ever heard of that jackal tribe that can send out two thousand young men to carry out robberies? By the way, we are just traveling this time, and we don’t bring much belongings. There are three hundred warriors guarding us. Our strength is better than that of ordinary small tribes. No matter how much we did, those local dogs still came straight to us. This is not their way of doing things, so I said this matter is very strange."
Wells listened to Yale's words with a look on his face. His expression kept changing. He was not an idiot and understood what Yale meant.
Although Wells is the seventh son of the leader of the Hercules Bull Tribe, he is the son that his father likes the most. Moreover, Wells has been very smart since he was a child. This may not be a big deal in the human race, but here in the orc tribe , but it is a great advantage.
Orcs have a straightforward nature, and generally people who are not very smart are stupid in the eyes of others and are easily deceived. Therefore, orcs attach great importance to smart children and will choose a prophet to be their teacher when they are young. , teach them, and such children are often the next patriarch of that race.
Wells has been very smart since he was a child, so his father chose Yale as his teacher when he was five years old. This was almost a secret, telling everyone that he We are ready to train Wells as his successor.
If the other brothers of Wells have average abilities, then it won’t matter. The Hercules Cow Clan can successfully complete their handover from old to new, but the problem is that the other brothers of Wells Several brothers are also very capable, so this will cause trouble.
Wells’ eldest brother, Gasol, has followed his father since he was a child and has been fighting for the Hercules Bull Clan. He is known as the Bull-headed God of War in the orc circle. He is strong enough to compete with the human race. Among the orcs who admire the strong, Gasol is very famous. Among the Hercules Bull Clan, Gasol's prestige is also very high.
Although Gasol is not as smart as Wells, he has been helping Wells' father take care of things in the clan over the years, and his performance is remarkable. Therefore, many people in the Hercules Bull clan They all support him and want him to become the next clan leader.
Wells’ second brother Paul is not worthy of attention, because Paul is a very bad-tempered person. Although he is also very strong and very combative, he is obviously not suitable to be a The patriarch, but Paul has a very good relationship with Gasol. He has always supported Gasol as the patriarch.
But Wells's third and fourth brothers died in battle when they were teenagers. Now not many people in the clan can remember their names.
Hailes, the fifth brother of Wells, has not been in good health since he was a child. He is sick for half of the year. He is a forgotten person in the clan and does not pose any threat.
Wells' sixth brother, Mendes, has a very good relationship with Wells and has taken good care of Wells since he was a child. However, he is not very old now and cannot be of much help.
Wells also has two younger brothers, but they are still young and are not even qualified to practice, let alone help.
Wells still has four sisters, but they are all married. They are also married to another race of the Tauren tribe with strong combat power, the Bullfight tribe. Wells and his second sister and third sister The relationship is very good, and his eldest sister and fourth sister have a good relationship with Gasol.
So if we really count, Gasol is more important than Wells as the leader of the Hercules Bull Clan.
