"You know me well. Do you need me to remind you of the traitors who betrayed me during these years living on the Forgotten Continent?"
The homeless people couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Although Carlos was lax in his management of them, he was extremely cruel to the orcs who wanted to usurp power and disobey his orders. He used all sorts of torture methods to make them completely subjugated.
Orcs still retain some bestial instincts; they will follow the strong and can be tamed under the rule of power.
It makes sense. Although he's gone, Carlos's power remains. If Carlos wants revenge, who can stop him?
"If you're willing to submit to me, don't make me angry."
After speaking, Carlos remained silent, observing their reactions.
The remaining stray animals stood there, unsure of what to do.
"Hey, whose side are we on now? He wants to recruit us."
"Oh dear, do we have any other choice but to surrender?"
"Never mind, we're no match for him anyway, otherwise we wouldn't have been driven out and chased down."
"That's true..."
After a brief discussion, the beast kings, sensing the unfavorable situation, began to devise various schemes.
Originally, they didn't want to attack Beast City anymore. They sent a few orcs to make a final effort, but the message they brought back was that Arthur and his companions had all gone to the Northern Hemisphere.
The Southern and Northern Hemispheres are separated by another sea, and crossing the ocean is no easy feat. Then, news came back that the sea was not calm and a tsunami was brewing, with towering waves sweeping in, almost reaching the Beast City.
Even though it was extremely risky, for the sake of wealth and glory, they were willing to take the risk and win over the orcs scattered across the Forgotten Continent.
They were assured they could live comfortably in Beast City, and that any conditions were negotiable as long as they joined.
At that time, Berandi and Ji Xing, along with a few other wandering beasts from the Forgotten Continent, rushed back to the Forgotten Continent.
Upon arriving in their hometown, they argued over who was the leader. Their group of wandering beasts, which already had many smaller teams and numerous team leaders, were vying for dominance.
The open and covert struggles resulted in many deaths, eventually leading to the disintegration of various groups and a chaotic situation. Previously, Carlos's presence helped stabilize the situation, but now that he's gone, all the underlying conflicts have been exposed.
When the various forces on the Forgotten Continent were locked in a fierce battle
As luck would have it, the Beast King sent word that if they submitted, they could return to the ancient continent.
Isn't this like having a pillow when you want to sleep? The beastmen of the wandering continent agreed without even thinking. The ancient continent was rich in resources, so they didn't have to worry about food. Why not live a carefree life?
They considered everything upon arriving on the ancient continent, but they hadn't considered that Carlos was still alive.
It's understandable that they want to rejoin Carlos's group; Carlos was the first orc to lead them into the ancient continent, which holds special significance for them.
As for those incompetent fools, it's obvious to everyone that they're not following the trend. Relying on past glories and connections won't work in the Beast World. Without real strength, they dare to talk nonsense and invite a beating!
Yili: "Don't listen to his nonsense. The serpent beast had nothing on the ancient continent. The continent's powers have all risen. You won't gain anything by siding with him now. Forget, he has been defeated and is no longer your leader."
"I brought you out of the Forgotten Continent and gave you benefits, built special stone houses for you in Beast City, and assigned you females. What more do you want? Will you still receive such good treatment under his rule in the future?"
Danze came out to stabilize morale and then spoke.
"Charge forward and kill them! In this ancient continent, we're the ones in charge. Don't be afraid of him. He's just a five-star ringed serpent beast. With our numbers, how can we be afraid of losing?"
"Whether you can completely conquer this continent depends on your performance."
The stray beastmen still care about their own interests. If they don't get the desired results, what's the point of joining Carlos?
A group of orcs hesitated, neither attacking nor helping the Beast King. Arthur was growing impatient.
Furthermore, he didn't agree with Carlos's approach of bringing the orcs from the Forgotten Continent to the Ancient Continent. Were they just here to steal resources? Besides, the wandering beasts simply couldn't live on the Ancient Continent; their ideologies were completely different.
They are inherently brutal, fond of war and brawls, and difficult to control. Unless there is a strong leader like Carlos to rule them, you can expect to be devoured by them.
Arthur: "I'm giving you one last chance. It's not too late to back out of the birthday celebration. You took advantage of my weakness to break into Feather Mountain and steal everything. I haven't settled the score with you yet."
Arthur showed a rare display of mercy, a remark that left both Miksen and Landy puzzled.
He showed no mercy when attacking tribes and killing chieftains; it was always a one-hit kill.
They actually waited so long and gave them a chance. Have they changed their ways?
Arthur had his reasons. He grew up in Beast City, where Lin Lin raised him. Unpleasant things happened there, but there were also beautiful memories.
He had seen these beast kings many times before. When they were young, they were always cheerful towards him, smiling and giving him food. He knew they were only smiling at him because of Lin Lin; if he wanted to kill them, his heart would soften.
"You can go back to Yushan yourselves. We will never go back. Beast City is something we worked so hard to build together, and we will never give it to you."
Allen winked and said
"Or we could all live together in Beast City, and we could still have the Beast King as our leader. Now that Lin Lin is gone, Arthur, with your strength, you could become the Beast King, and everyone would submit to you."
Sigh… Arthur sighed. They really had been too lenient with them; they'd gotten too comfortable and forgotten their place.
"Don't blame me."
The stray beasts wavered in the middle, neither attacking nor retreating.
The beast kings were somewhat apprehensive, but the atmosphere had reached a boiling point, and they had to step up.
However, the attack ended before it even began...
Arthur's special skill, Beast Tide, brought in animal help and completely resolved the disadvantage of being outnumbered.
In the chaos, Randy found Abier, who was unharmed except for being knocked unconscious and tied up in the stone house. They still brought him food at the same time every day.
He was treated well; he wasn't treated like a prisoner.
Seeing that Abil was unharmed, Randy's anger towards the Beast King subsided somewhat.
The beast city was bustling with noise at night, the sounds of fighting echoing everywhere; where there is fighting, there is death.
The two sides fought
Both sides were seriously injured, and the stench of blood permeated the entire city, filling the air with a pungent, metallic smell.
The Beast Kings had more men, but they were all rogue beasts, and some even defected to Carlos's side at the last minute. The Beast Kings had no advantage and started to back down, behaving in a way that was not befitting of kings.
The beasts and mammoths summoned by Arthur killed a large group of orcs. They all obeyed Arthur's commands, shocking everyone present.
