Chapter 198: Greenskins in the Valley

Chapter 198: Greenskins in the Valley
After arriving at the mission area assigned to Roland by Locke, Roland did not waste time and quickly commanded the eight legions to begin the annihilation operation.

After quickly setting up camp and sending out a reconnaissance team, the eight legions quickly changed into their weapons and equipment, took the alchemical potions distributed by Roland, adjusted their status, and made preparations for the battle.

In less than an hour, after the eight legions had almost adjusted themselves, as the first reconnaissance team brought back the location of the greenskin tribe they had searched, the eight legions officially started moving.

Although the greenskin tribes near Fortress No. 3 were weak and any legion could annihilate them independently, Roland decided to be cautious at the beginning, considering that the greenskin tribes here were not the wild tribes near Fortress No. 3.

First, the eight legions acted together and launched a heavy attack on several greenskin tribes they found.

After slaughtering several greenskin tribes and confirming that the greenskin tribe here was only slightly stronger than the greenskin tribe at Fortress No. 3, Roland quickly adjusted his military plan.

Roland sent out the fifth to eighth legions separately, letting them annihilate the greenskin tribes independently. At the same time, Roland also temporarily assigned all of his spellcasters to these four legions.

He provided these spellcasters with a large number of spell scrolls, allowing them to use the spell scrolls to bring back all the vitality of the greenskin tribes that the legion had cleared out.

In addition, Roland and Hela led the first to fourth legions and headed directly to one of the three large greenskin tribes in the mission area.

While Roland's army was killing people, Odin's cavalry army was also slaughtering people in the area they were responsible for. The old soldiers led the recruits and trained them with the greenskin tribes. In addition, most of the old soldiers in this cavalry army were sent to other mission areas to observe the clearance of other military forces.

Once they discover that the military forces in a mission area are unable to defeat the greenskin tribe, or even are being killed in return, they will quickly concentrate their military forces and launch a heavy blow against the greenskin tribe in this mission area, breaking up the organized greenskin tribe and relieving the military pressure in this area.

The mission area that Roland was in charge of was closest to them, so naturally there were cavalry watching over it.

At the beginning, they would follow the legion from a distance, watching the legion soldiers' ruthless slaughter and being ready to rescue at any time. However, the legion soldiers were fighting a war of annihilation, killing everyone at once. The greenskin tribes they found would not have a single greenskin alive, so they did not need their help at all.

Therefore, as time went by, the cavalrymen who were sent in to provide backup never had a chance to take action. In the end, the number of cavalrymen who watched the legionnaires fight became fewer and fewer, from the initial hundreds to only a few.

Roland was well aware of this.

After all, the military strength within the Locke resistance was uneven, so it was normal to have a supervision and bottom-line guarantee mechanism. It would be strange if there was none. Therefore, under Roland's reminder, the legion soldiers ignored the cavalry watching the battle. Otherwise, the cavalry of each legion would have attacked and driven them away long ago.

Although Roland had no intention of covering up the massacre of the greenskin tribe, the imprisonment of the greenskin priests and the blocking of the greenskin tribe's vitality could not be exposed.

Who knows if there is a traitor in Locke's resistance army? It would be bad if it was exposed.

To this end, Roland specifically instructed the spellcasters assigned to each legion that everything must be kept secret and that they could give up if conditions did not permit.

Fortunately, the people following them were all Donnar's native cavalry, who knew little about spells and thought that the spellcasters were casting spells to kill the enemies. Therefore, when they found that they were looking at the spellcasters following the elemental fluctuations, the spellcasters would stop casting spells.

Thinking that the spellcasters did not want to expose their spells in front of them, they suppressed their curiosity and would not look at any elemental fluctuations from the spellcasters. Therefore, except for the first few greenskin tribes that were spared by the legion spellcasters, the vitality of the remaining greenskin tribes was completely blocked and taken away.

As the four legions roamed around the mission area and struck heavy blows at all the greenskin tribes they found, Roland and Hela also arrived at the target destination with the four legions.

Roland stood on a small hill, looking at the large greenskin tribe in the distance.

This is a greenskin tribe built in a valley. At the entrance of the valley, a thick wooden wall separates the inside and outside of the valley.

On the wooden wall, a green-skinned orc wearing tattered armor was standing there listlessly.

Under the wooden wall, some immature green creatures were playing and running around in the open space.

The green-skinned laborers with dull eyes were holding axes and chopping down trees emotionlessly on the outskirts of the valley. Even when huge trees fell down and smashed their companions into meat patties, their expressions hardly changed. They picked up the blood-stained wood indifferently and moved them into the valley step by step.

After they lifted the wood, the green-skinned orcs watching from all sides would quickly swarm over and eat up the orc laborers on the ground who were smashed into meat patties by the trees.

In addition, outside the valley, there would occasionally be some strong greenskin warriors carrying their hunted prey back into the valley with pride, while the orcs on the side would look at their prey with greedy eyes, but they would just look at them and would not dare to really fight for it.

Although according to Kan'ozu's setting, the green-skinned orcs are born with a low IQ, but if their passive talents are triggered more often, they can have the IQ of ordinary people and develop a real tribe and village.

It was as if this large greenskin tribe in front of us had developed into a small town and established relative order.

Looking at the small town in front of him that was easy to defend but difficult to attack, Roland silently looked for an opportunity.

It’s not that this large greenskin tribe is difficult to attack, but if Roland wants to kill all the greenskins in this small town, he still has to make some preparations.

For example: wait for the orcs who went out hunting to come back, kill as many as possible, find and block all escape passages from the valley, and ensure that all the greenskins in the valley cannot escape.

Therefore, in order to achieve this goal, Roland quietly approached the valley town and spent half a day to understand the specific situation of the valley.

Afterwards, he sent out some elite soldiers to block each passage and used magic to destroy several underground passages leading to the outside world.

After spending most of the day making sure that all preparations were in place, Roland led the four legions to charge forward.
