Ember Skywalker

Chapter 296 Return
“My Lord, as long as you think it’s a good deal, I fully accept this deal.

I swear here in the name of the wise creature that in the future, whenever the nobles need me, I will definitely help them three times."

"Good! I am satisfied with your promise. Five thousand warriors will be sent to your tent tomorrow."

Offenbach smiled with a sly look on his face.

“Of course, I don’t want to openly fight with Jimin just yet.

If they ask about these five thousand wise orcs, my answer will be that I don’t know which tribe was kidnapped by you.”

"I understand. I will always claim to the outside world that they are captured slaves."

Raven knew that although the other party valued him, it was impossible to expect him to go to war with Zhimin, at least now.

"My Lord, can I ask you a question?"

"Go ahead."

“Why do you fancy me so much?

If I fail to meet your expectations in the future, or if I die in battle, wouldn't that be a huge loss for you?"

"I said before that at my level, I can already feel a hint of fate. I trust my intuition."

Offenbach chuckled, looking like a profound wise man.

“Besides that, my life has come to an end.

For the future of our tribe, I must make some arrangements. The deal with you is one of them, but not the only one."

"I understand."

“In the next few days, you will get familiar with the five thousand warriors, and I will keep Hesa ​​by my side to teach you.

After all, he may be the heir of the tribe and needs to know his responsibilities. "

"Then I take my leave."

After Raven left, Offenbach called Windsor and explained the matter to him.

"What, five thousand people? Great Lord, why do you like that kid so much?"

“I am doing this to protect Hesa ​​and also for the future of my people.

Raven's future is limitless. In my opinion, he may even reach the apocalypse."

"What! Apocalypse!"

Windsor was stunned, his face full of shock.

Offenbach sighed and continued:
"He is in a critical moment right now. I only sent out a few thousand people from my clan, and in return I got the promise of a future strong man. This can be said to be a great bargain."

"But what if he regrets it after he becomes powerful?"

“I trust my own judgment, he’s not that kind of person.

What's more, there is the relationship with Hesa, and our five thousand tribesmen, who are all his ties.

At that time, even if it is for their sake, Raven will help our people."

Windsor's face showed deep sorrow, and he said sadly:
"Are you...really going to abandon us?"

Ever since she could remember, the Great Lord had been supporting the entire tribe, and his legend had been worshipped by countless wise orcs.

In the clan, the great lord means everything.

But finally, he had to leave.

"In the long river of time, I will eventually become a speck of dust and disappear in the sea of ​​stars."

"But what about the wise beastmen?"

"The wise orcs will live forever." Offenbach's voice was as desolate as blood.

"I see."

Windsor suddenly raised his head and strode out.

A deep sigh sounded from inside the tent:
"Whether it is when it exists or when it disappears, alas..."

Early that morning, the warm sun shone on the earth, and Riven's team set off.

In addition to eighty elite cavalrymen, thirty air cavalrymen, this team also has five thousand strong intelligent orcs.

Led by Lahsa, they walked towards the east towards the warm sun.

After not seeing him for a few days, Hesa ​​has changed a lot.

The aura on his body was as condensed as the deep sea, as if it would erupt at any time, and his level was already heavenly.

It seemed that Offenbach's advice had brought him great benefits. The team marched along and arrived at the foot of a barren mountain two days later.

It was a very desolate place, with a deserted village in sight and collapsed huts and tents everywhere.

Because of the long-term wind and rain, they are almost rotten with the ground and can't be distinguished from each other.

Hesa walked in the ruins without saying a word, looking desolate.

This is where he was born.

Once upon a time, their family lived in that leaky house, leading the simplest and happiest days in the world.

When I was a child, my sister and I always sat on one side of our father's shoulders and followed him to the top of the mountain to watch the most beautiful sunrise in the Western Wilderness.

Every time my sister sees the sun rise and light up the sky, she shouts with excitement.

Hesa wiped her eyes with her elbow.

It's all gone. Everything is gone.

For the rest of his life, he can only touch them through his memories.

"Roar!"

The wise orc let out a mournful roar and knelt weakly on the ground.

When he finished venting, a hand patted him on the shoulder.

“Brother, let’s get revenge on Zhimin together for old grudges and new grudges.

From now on, not only will your family be watching over you, but we will also be with you."

"Boss, I will definitely avenge them! Let's go."

The team continued to move forward in the direction where Hesa ​​had escaped.

There is a path there that leads to the human kingdom.

When being hunted by the Huangyou tribe, Hesa ​​and his tribesmen fled into the mountains.

Later, his tribesmen died one after another at the hands of the Huangyou tribe. Only he escaped, but he fell into the hands of the Turan slave team until he was rescued by Riven.

This escape route is a way to go home, and it can go directly to Dante without going around Zhimin's territory.

To the north of the Western Wilderness, two winding rivers intersect and divide the empty land into several pieces.

The northernmost piece of land is different from the others in that it is covered with vast forests.

The forest stretches endlessly, but it is not lush, and even a little withered and yellow.

This is west of the Western Wilderness. It is a miracle that such a vast forest can exist.

The Moon Spirit tribes live in this forest called the Moon Sea.

Five Colors, Titans, Storms, Tree Language, Gray Moon Spirits, each Moon Spirit race has lived and multiplied here for thousands of years.

After generations of hard work, they finally developed the sparse dwarf forest into its current size.

Yet everyone knows that the tallest, most luxuriant forests and the most fertile soil are still east of the Gauguin Mountains.

It is now the human kingdom.

In the extreme northwest of the Moon Sea, a giant tree that was a thousand meters high and almost submerged in the clouds suddenly fell down.

The huge and boundless tree canopy brought about a fierce wind pressure, which crashed to the ground like a tsunami.

Rumble!
The earth shook violently, endless smoke and dust rose, and low, painful roars spread throughout the forest, like the howling of a dying person.

This was the last voice of the Moon Spirit Tree.

As it fell, the trees within a radius of dozens of kilometers suddenly dropped leaves like rain, and half of them withered in the blink of an eye.

Countless five-colored moon spirits cried and howled, fleeing in all directions with the dead ancestral tree as the center.

This was a complete defeat, and Liuhua City fell completely.

In mid-air, an ice-blue dragon with a body length of more than sixty meters was floating, looking coldly at the ancestral tree below and the fleeing moon spirits.

There were dozens of horrific wounds on the dragon's body, its scales were cracked and curled, and blood was spilling like rain, but he didn't care.

A tall moon spirit sat on the back of a giant dragon.

His skin was moon silver, and the life vein on his forehead was gold.

This is a Moon Spirit, and judging by the complexity of his life veins, his status is definitely not low.

"Cranach, how are you injured?" Yue Ling asked with concern, stroking the neck scales of her ice blue dragon companion.
