Chapter 381: Chapter 370, So You’re Here_2
Having finished dealing with matters on the giant wall.
He continued to the site where the Skeleton Minotaurs were on standby.
He made armor and weapons.
Then had his maid call Anjia and Demitrija.
He assigned Anjia to command the Skeleton Minotaurs, and to equip them.
Fang Hao, along with Demitrija, once again made their way to the stationing spot of the Skeleton Mantis.
202 Skeleton Mantes were standing still on the spot.
Their heads moved slightly as the two approached.
They gave a feeling of being a smidge smarter than ordinary skeletons, but not by much.
“These Mantises have special attributes. They are proficient with various close-combat weapons. What do you think we should equip them with so as to maximize their combat power?” Fang Hao asked Demitrija.
There wasn’t much choice regarding armor, despite their smaller size, they were close to the height of skeleton trolls.
They could actually wear the Troll’s equipment.
However, due to their proficiency in close-combat weapons, Fang Hao found it difficult to make a choice.
“My Lord, since they’re proficient with all kinds of weapons, we can equip them with white steel two-handed swords.” Demitrija thought for a while and said.
He was familiar with all the weapons used by the troops within the territory.
The infantry had green black iron knight swords, and cavalry were also equipped with green single-edged knives.
Only the white steel two-handed sword and white steel daggers had achieved blue quality.
But daggers weren’t suitable for large-scale battles, so Demitrija suggested the white steel two-handed sword.
Fang Hao nodded, he too had thought of the two-handed white steel sword, but he wanted to hear others’ opinions.
Now that Demitrija had said it, he didn’t need to be too troubled over this.
“Alright, it will be the white steel two-handed sword then.”
Fang Hao decided on the gear and began making armor and white steel two- handed swords for the Skeleton Mantis to equip.
The army’s equipment process lasted until deep into the night.
After completing the equipment process, the giant wall with nearly half a million troops marched overnight towards the ‘Black Thorn’ held Blood Fortress.
On the other side.
Bloody Mountain Range.
Under the unified command of the Rockhead Tribe, the Troll alliance army all the way to the lair of the Bloodthroat Tribe.
The alliance army, on the north side of the Bloodthroat Tribe, established a camp for the final rest.
Raw wood and stones were made into simple defenses.
The enemy’ s skulls were hoisted high on wooden poles, filling the surroundings.
The Trolls set up tents.
In iron buckets, they lit bonfires and roasted the remains of creatures.
The Trolls huddled around the fires, waiting for the food to be roasted, while chatting with each other.
To the Trolls, battle was their daily bread, death was not so terrifying.
Only the humans, serving as slaves and backup food following behind the Trolls, shivered in the corners.
Inside a huge tent stitched together from several beast skins.
The leaders of the Troll alliance gathered in the tent.
After reporting the casualties of each tribe, they began to discuss the next step of the plan.
“Rest one more day tomorrow and launch an attack on the Bloodthroat Tribe early the next morning. As long as we can take this city, even if Kaius comes back, he won’t have the power to turn the tides.” The leader of the Rockhead Tribe, Bagath, said in a deep voice.
“What on earth is Kaius doing? He wouldn’t suddenly comeback when we’re attacking, would he?” One of the troll leaders said, seeming uneasy.
Meatfist – Kaius, the most powerful hero among the Trolls.
The reason they dared to attack Bloodthroat this time was because they got news that Kaius wasn’t in the tribe.
Otherwise, no matter how many Trolls they had in their alliance, they would not dare to attack Bloodthroat.
“Ha ha! Everyone can rest assured about this. The last battle posed a great threat to Kaius by the undead. He has taken offerings to Kaur Holy Mountain. He won’t be able to return in this short time. He doesn’t even know what’s going on here. As long as we proceed as planned, there will be nothing he can do when he comes back.” Bagath laughed heartily and said.
“Kaur Holy Mountain? Kaius believes in that legend?”
“Heh! Just some tricks to deceive the tribesmen. The battle with the undead not only dissatisfied us but also caused a lot of dissatisfaction within Bloodthroat. Making a trip with offerings, coming back to claim some sort of omen… Common tricks.” Bagath sneered.
Everyone was familiar with this set of tricks.
In fact, people present have taken up the leadership position by relying on this method.
Hearing Bagath say this, the others were also relaxed.
“Ha ha! Chief Bagath is right. These are just Kaius’s little tricks, but he must not have expected us to destroy his tribe while he was out.”
“Yes, even if he returns later and is powerful, we won’t be afraid of him with just a few remnants.”
The Troll leaders also felt at ease.
Bagath laughed loudly again, continuing, “After taking down Bloodthroat, we will launch an attack on the undead, break through that fortress, and we can leave this desolate place. Outside is full of human villages, our tribes won’t have to worry about going hungry anymore.”
Hearing Bagath’s words, everyone expressed longing.
The Bloodthroat Tribe had blocked the exit, but they had heard from others.
Once they left this mountain range, outside were human villages with almost no combat power everywhere.
The living environment was not as harsh as here.
“Speaking of humans… Chief Bagath, the army is seriously short of food. Those humans you brought, you don’t really intend to raise them, do you?” A one- eyed troll leader suddenly spoke.
When this man finished speaking, the rest of the leaders in the tent all looked at Bagath.
