Chapter 1401 First Intimate Contact
In the beginning, the orc powerhouses, including the War Chief, the Horn of Destruction, did not take the Earthlings seriously.
Although this black-haired and black-eyed fellow looked mysterious and strange, this world had originally been inhabited by many strange races with different appearances and customs.
Liches that guarded the ancient tombs in the death desert…
Ice barbarians that could eat ice and breathe storms in the tundra in the far north…
Two-headed trolls with two heads and three arms…
Abyssfolk, who lived in the Eternal Night Abyss and were omnipotent in the darkness but would be set aflame or even burned to death by sunlight…
The Turan orcs had already witnessed too many foreign races.
They were quite happy with most of them. If they encountered each other in the wild, small-scale conflicts would naturally be unavoidable in order to obtain survival resources.
However, there had never been a large-scale war that lasted for a long time.
On one hand, because their habitats were very far apart, it was not easy to cross mountains and rivers to attack each other.
More importantly, all the foreign tribes that lived in poor mountains and rivers, with poor resources, had a common enemy.
The Holy Light Temple.
They all had a common dream.
To conquer the land of Holy Light and become the ruler of this world.
There was also a common bottom line.
To survive in the continuous “Purification war”launched by the Holy Light Camp.
And the black hair and black eyes of the Earthlings were obviously not members of the Holy Light Camp. Therefore, the Tulan Orcs, who were fully preparing for the war and preparing to march north, really did not intend to fight to the death with Dragon City and the Earthlings in the beginning
Even though they didn’t think much of the Earthlings.
According to the standards of the orc warriors, the Earthlings were too short, too thin, too thin, and their hair was too thin — even thinner than the holy light humans. They didn’t have any body odor at all and looked very weak at first glance.
The combat strength of the Earthlings seemed to be just so-so. Most of the Earthlings liked to hide in trenches, fortresses, or a moving iron shell called a “Tank”and shoot from afar.
Such a cowardly battle tactic did not have the glory of a powerhouse.
It was said that apart from a few powerhouses, most of the Earthlings relied on a power called “Technology”to survive.
The Tulan beastmen roughly knew the meaning of “Technology”.
It seemed that a long, long time ago, the few ancestors of the Tulan Beastmen had also taken the wrong path of “Technology”.
Fortunately, the great ancestors had understood the true meaning of totem power and invented totem armor, replacing all the small tricks known as “Technology”.
As for the “Tanks”, “Train cannons”, and “Armored airships”that the Earthlings were proud of.
Similar structures were complicated, and the failure rate was high. It required a large number of people to control it, and its power could only be said to be ordinary. The Tulan Beastmen had long been seen in the hands of the Dwarves of the Holy Light Camp.
Even if they changed into a more exquisite outer shell and painted a few layers of colorful paint, so what? Could they withstand an iron fist full of the blessing of the ancestors of the orcs who were wearing totem armor? Of course, bullying the weak Earthlings was not a skill.
The holy light camp was the fated enemy of the Tulan Orcs. The war chief, “Horn of Destruction”, showed mercy and sent an envoy to convey Tulan’s will to the Earthlings:
As long as dragon city was willing to become Turan Ze’s vassal, the people of Earth could form an army of servants and follow the Turan army into the land of Holy Light.
Then, the people of Turan could tolerate the weakness of the people of Earth and were willing to share the spoils of war and the glory of victory with the people of Earth.
The supreme commander of Turan ze promised that after the holy light camp was completely defeated, the future land of Holy Light would also have a place for the people of Earth.
After all, putting aside their weak bodies and slender nerves, the earthlings could be considered to be smart and skillful to a certain extent. Some of the gadgets they made were quite strange. Compared to the Frost Barbarians and two-headed trolls, which were even more crude than the Turan orcs, the Earthlings’handicrafts and entertainment products could be considered to be a good addition to the bloody battle.
This diplomatic mission was full of the unprecedented kindness and tolerance of the Tulan Orcs.
On the way up the Tulan River and into the Tusk Mountains, they bumped into the diplomatic mission from Dragon City.
The diplomatic mission on the other side brought the “Kindness and tolerance’ of the Earthlings. The earth version of “Kindness and tolerance”was translated into the Tulan language:
“We know that the Tulan Orcs are a group of well-developed, simple-minded, barbaric, and Stinky Fellows.
“And your civilization is also so crude, clumsy, and low-class.
“Originally, we earthlings should have spent the strength of flipping our hands to conquer and destroy you all.
“But considering that the Earthlings Love Peace, and that you came to this land a little earlier than the Earthlings, we thought that you would be the best choice.
“Therefore, as long as the Tulan Orcs are willing to become the vassals of Dragon City, provide dragon city with a large number of soldiers and markets, and hand over the rights to exploit the underground resources of Tulan
ZE.
“Then, not only do we not mind letting you continue living in Tulan ZE, but in the near future, we can also let you follow us to conquer and rule the entire world as a servant Army.”
Of course, the original words of the Earthlings were certainly not so simple and crude.
In the official documents, the Earthlings used a large number of crooked teeth, flowery flowers, and four to six parallel characters.
It was so gorgeous that the orc envoys could not understand it at all.
However, although the Tulan Orcs did not have much brains.
They had eyes.
They could see.
Long before the Earthlings had asked the Tulan orcs to submit to the foot of Dragon City and become a vassal civilization, the ultimatum had yet to be issued.
The armored airships, short-distance teleportation arrays, large-scale shield machines, and all kinds of construction machinery from the nine families of Dragon City had already gathered into a surging torrent of steel and rushed down the tusk mountain range.
Many small and medium-sized towns and rat villages near the tusk mountain range had already been occupied by the Earthlings.
All the orcs, regardless of whether they were warriors with the blood of Glory or rat people with the blood of inferiority, were all impatiently transferred to their family businesses by the nine families that ruled Dragon City, they became the cheapest labor force, mining, building cities, and exploring the wilderness day and night.
However, because the Earthlings were too quick to act, and they paid special attention to information blocking battles, the area in the south of Tulanze, close to the tusk mountain range, had the least resources, and was the furthest away from black-corner city and Red Gold City, it was a barren land that the five great clans looked down on.
Therefore, the powerhouses of the five great clans who had gathered in red gold city to discuss the Battle of Glory, as well as the dozens of heavy armored battle groups who were all wearing totem armor deployed on the northern front, had not received any battle reports for the time being.
With the violent temper of the Tulan orcs, how could they bear such humiliation?
The envoys of both sides did not even meet the leader of the opposite side, and the negotiations had completely broken down before they had even begun.
The ORC envoys attacked the dragon city envoys at night and killed about seventy to eighty percent of the Dragon City envoys.
The aerial firepower from armored airships and armed drones also bombarded the orc envoys on the way back to Red Gold City to inform them. The ORC envoys were almost wiped out.
The war between the Dragon City civilization and the Tulan civilization broke out just like that.
At the beginning of the war, neither side took the other seriously.
For the Tulan Orcs, war was a common occurrence. Who would they fight? Besides, in order to ensure the loyalty of their vassals, swords were always better than pens.
Even within the five great clans, a small-scale civil war was used to decide who was qualified to be the chief of the war and lead all the Tulan Warriors.
The Earthlings were disobedient. They would be obedient after a beating.
After all, it was said that they only had one city.
It was just a city. How big could it be? How big could the population be? No matter how advanced the so-called “Technology”was, how advanced could it be?
To the Earthlings, the Tulan Orcs were nothing more than a bunch of simple-minded muscle sticks.
In fact, they were not even as powerful and terrifying as the monsters that had just been dealt with.
Presumably, the process and outcome of this war would only be smoother and more one-sided than the colonists of Earth’s era conquering the New World, right?
No, this could not be considered a real war at all.
It was just a hunt, or even an armed tour.
With the same thoughts, the two sides casually collided.
Then, the first line of troops that exchanged fire simultaneously greeted each other and the mothers of the leaders who had decided to start a war with the most crude, vicious, and vulgar language of their civilization. The Tulan Beastmen were dumbstruck. Just what kind of Motherf * cking armor thickness and firepower was this? How Long would this unforeseeable, even more terrifying and lasting firepower coverage than holy light magic last, how many mages did the Earthlings have? How could they just fire cannons for a day and a night?
It was fine if it lasted for a long time, but the power was beyond the knowledge of the beastmen warriors.
If this kind of cannon that could corrode a radius of three to five miles was a cannon, then what was the thing forged by the dwarves? Was it a fire stick?
The earthlings were dumbstruck to discover that the Tulan Beastmen in front of them were like the “Beastmen”in their stereotypical impression — those who drank blood and were ignorant and would only foolishly use their flesh and blood to attack the steel defense line, the barbarians who died like mowing grass were completely different.
On the surface, the Tulan civilization still stopped in the era of cold weapons.
But what the hell was totem power, and what the hell was totem armor?
Why did this seemingly primitive and backward civilization have so many supreme experts who were comparable to divine level transcendents? And the ordinary beastmen warriors were so fearless of death, even daring to dance and dance as they burrowed into the hot barrel of the train cannon. At the instant the train cannon opened fire, an incomparably tyrannical totem power was blasted out, activating the explosion of the cannon balls, die together with the train cannon?
Both sides realized that they had greatly underestimated the enemy’s war will and war potential.
What appeared in front of them was a ruthless character that they had never seen before.
Each of them was so big that the other party could not swallow them in one gulp, and even if they forced themselves to swallow them, their intestines would be pierced through.
It was not a good idea to start a war rashly.
