You think you can fight back because you outnumber them, huh?
In a war of attrition, the longer it goes on, the more disadvantageous it becomes for Arthur, leading to the fall of the surrounding orcs one by one.
The number of people is still too small; relying solely on human lives to fill the gaps is probably not enough.
"Look around. I'm about to win. Hand Guo Xiaoxiao over to me, and you can keep your territory. Otherwise, the Gray Rock Desert will be mine."
Carlos had a cunning look on his face; he had long guessed Andrei's purpose and had made preparations accordingly.
By simply delaying the battle, one can gain a decisive advantage in no time, without lifting a finger.
He might not be a match for his opponent in a one-on-one fight, but a battle between two races is not a one-man show.
Arthur looked around and suddenly laughed. Did they really think that threatening him with territory would make him hand over Guo Xiaoxiao?
That female was someone he would protect with his life; he would never abandon her, even if it meant sacrificing everything.
The resentment in his heart could not stop the tide of defeat, and it seemed that the battle was about to be lost.
Carlos asked, "So, have you made up your mind?"
Arthur snorted coldly: "You think I'll hand Xiaoxiao over to you? Don't even think about it!"
Carlos lost his patience. He hadn't originally wanted to completely break ties with Arthur; after all, Arthur was the Reverse Star Ring, someone he couldn't kill. If Arthur escaped and gathered a group of orcs to attack him, it would be a losing proposition. It was better to save him some face.
Handing over Guo Xiaoxiao would mean either him immediately retreating or leaving the Gray Rock Desert to him. Now it seems impossible; he's unlikely to hand her over. He's just as fixated on her.
"squeak…"
The cry of an eagle came from overhead, and suddenly, a huge, dark flock flew in, blotting out the sky and making it hard to breathe.
Carlos's expression changed slightly. This was bad; the eagle beast...
Arthur stared unfazed at the scene of the massive army pressing in from above.
"Arthur???"
A giant eagle, seeing Arthur land safely beside him, transformed back into human form.
It's Cang Jue!
They finally arrived, thankfully in time, otherwise Guo Xiaoxiao would have been in trouble.
Arthur wasn't surprised to see Cang Jue. They should have found Guo Xiaoxiao long ago after she was captured. If Andre hadn't helped Guo Xiaoxiao escape, they would have been completely taken advantage of long ago.
Cang Jue was shocked to see that Arthur was still alive. He had clearly seen him fall into the deep pit, yet he hadn't died.
But the surprise at Arthur being alive paled in comparison to the shock of seeing Carlos alive. It was this serpent beast that had kidnapped Guo Xiaoxiao; damn it, they'd finally found him!
Unlike caves, the desert offers less freedom of movement, and eagle beasts are natural enemies of snake beasts, allowing Cang Jue to unleash his full potential.
"Where did you take Xiaoxiao? Give her back to me right now!"
Cang Jue was burning with rage
Carlos was embarrassed; the person was no longer with him. Arthur chimed in.
"We mated here yesterday."
Cang Jue was stunned. Mating, mating—he immediately conjured up an erotic picture in his mind.
Daring to sleep with his female is a capital offense! Even if he saved her, he shouldn't have taken advantage of Guo Xiaoxiao in her vulnerable state.
They're worse than animals!
"You actually forced her to mate with you."
Cang Jue was furious, but Arthur looked at him indifferently, not taking him seriously. Besides, Cang Jue couldn't beat him.
Cang Jue was overwhelmed by his aura and felt extremely unwilling. Arthur then slowly said...
"She did it willingly. You'll see her later and ask her yourself."
Absolutely impossible… Hmm… Cang Jue wavered. Judging from Guo Xiaoxiao's personality, could it be that Arthur won her over through persistent persuasion? Besides, he had heroically sacrificed himself before. It seems, it's not impossible…
Never mind, let's kill the snake first.
Both harboring their own ulterior motives, they reached an agreement: a win-win solution was to temporarily cease hostilities and first deal with the most troublesome opponent, Carlos.
The eagle beasts were all orcs from the Sishui tribe. Cang Jue heard from Mikeson that Guo Xiaoxiao had been abducted to the Forgotten Continent, so the two gathered their respective teams and charged over.
Cangjue is much faster; the Mikson Army can't keep up with their Air Force, and carrying them would be too slow, so they'll just go their separate ways, whoever arrives first can search first.
Carlos glanced at the eagle beasts overhead, showing no fear of their strength. It seemed Cang Jue had brought his entire elite force this time; however, it didn't matter.
"You dead snake, you're dead!"
Cang Jue made some outrageous remarks, Carlos said
That's not necessarily true.
They underestimated the number of his orcs. Carlos gave a wink to the wolf beside him, who understood and howled a few times at the sky.
Immediately afterwards, more wolves began to howl, their continuous howls echoing through the sky.
A smile played on Carlos's lips. These wolves were indeed loyal; even in death, their souls would faithfully submit to him. Then, the sound of orcish footsteps approached.
More and more dense, closer and closer...
The crowd witnessed a massive beast tide, with thousands of lions, tigers, leopards, and even bear-like beastmen, and new beastmen were constantly appearing.
This formation was powerful enough to annihilate the orcs of the Grayrock Desert; even Arthur's Reverse Star Ring couldn't stop it.
Carlos looked at Arthur
"You may be powerful, but you underestimate my status on the Forgotten Continent. I am an orc born on the Forgotten Continent, and the number of subordinates I command is far beyond your reach."
His confidence stems from this: he possesses formidable strength and a solid foundation.
For some reason, the orcs of the Forgotten Continent did not develop civilization like those on other continents, but instead maintained a primitive society, killing and devouring each other.
They only follow the strong, and Carlos, having grown up in such an environment, understands the law of the jungle, the life and death struggles. The beastmen who gave birth to him abandoned him when he was young, and no one can understand what kind of life he has lived. Too much hardship has numbed him, and he has become accustomed to it.
He accepted everything, became a powerful being, and almost came to rule the Forgotten Continent.
Kexin
Why do I still feel empty even after becoming stronger?
...I still feel it's not enough...
What exactly are we pursuing?
Originally, Carlos didn't have a good impression of females; they only knew how to eat and sleep, had no fighting ability whatsoever, and were also incredibly ugly.
The orcs in the cave would bring back females and present them to him, but he wouldn't even glance at them, showing no desire to reproduce whatsoever. Eventually, the orcs stopped questioning him when they brought back females.
He turned a blind eye, pretending not to see, keeping to himself as it was none of his business. Besides, the males in the cave needed to vent their emotions, and the females were a perfect outlet.
It allows them to vent, stabilize, and quiet.
Until the key figure appeared, Guo Xiaoxiao, a beautiful and powerful [ps: skill-boosted, super strong] person, he showed reproductive desire for the first time.
Guo Xiaoxiao is very beautiful and cute. Her clear, bright eyes evoke a sense of pity. She exudes a faint, pleasant fragrance.
He was so lonely, so isolated. Every time he woke up at night, all he saw was darkness. He longed for that darkness to appear; he wanted a companion.
………
Judging from the scale and number of orcs, Cang Jue realized that this was indeed the Forgotten Continent; a single tribe had so many orcs, and they were only just beginning.
