Chapter 722 Doubt
As soon as Chen Fang came back from outside the city, he was scolded by the charming three women. He knew he was wrong, so he didn't dare to refute anything, so he could only accept the criticism humbly.
After teaching Chen Fang a lesson, several people stood on the city wall and looked at the totem beastman who had returned to its original state outside, and discussed how the other party was so calm and did not launch an attack.
"It feels very wrong, obviously lost a lot of manpower, why are the totem beasts still so quiet?"
Jimo frowned with a thoughtful expression on his face.
According to the pissing nature of the totem beastman, Chen Fang just killed no less than six hundred of their clansmen. It is impossible to stay so calm and not attack and take revenge. It is obviously very abnormal. If there is no conspiracy, even a fool would not believe it.
"Is there? They didn't attack the army before."
Wenren didn't find it strange, the imperial army was surrounded in the forest for many days earlier.
"That's what's weird about me."
"Whether it's the time in the forest, or the captives in Dakeng, or the current situation, I feel that the totem beastmen seem to let the human army go on purpose. I think they must have some purpose." Jimo said with certainty.
When the royal army was besieged in the forest, the totem beastmen had taken the lead by monitoring the army's actions through various means. It shouldn't be too difficult to destroy the army, but they were only used to prevent the army from breaking through, and Isn't it strange to only fight back and not pursue every time, and to surround and not attack when you have the strength to kill the army?
All the residents of Raofeng City were massacred and used as their food reserves, but the soldiers who were arrested after breaking out of the siege were only guarded in the big pit, which is also very strange.
According to Jimo's understanding, apart from the totem beasts, the totem beastmen did not have the habit of keeping any threatening creatures in captivity. It was their usual practice to store dead prey as food.
There are also totem beastmen who are very concerned about their own territory. As long as the territory they set up will be regarded as their own territory, even if they are taken down for a while, they will not just surround them peacefully. It will immediately attack and seize the territory back.
There are at least 20,000 totem beastmen outside the city, and there are only more than 20,000 human races in the city. The number is the same, and the combat power is far different. It is not normal to just stay so quietly.
To say that there is not much difference in numbers between the defending side and the attacking side, and the idea of a disadvantage in the siege, the totem beastman would not understand.
"I have the same feeling. I wonder why they don't attack the city." Mei Mei nodded.
Wenren interjected at this time: "Actually, I'm even more surprised why so many totem beastmen suddenly appeared here, as if they suddenly appeared out of the ground, but we didn't get any news at all, it was from the refugees. owned."
Not only Wen people were curious about how the totem beastman appeared here, but Chen Fang was also very surprised.
First of all, Chen Fang knew some information about the totem wild beasts. These guys hide from the world in the deep wasteland deep in the western region. The tribes will fight each other for territory, and there is no harmony among them.
This time, it suddenly appeared at the junction of the three realms, and many tribes gathered together to form an alliance. If it was not premeditated, Chen Fang would not believe it. It must be beneficial to unite a group of people who are not in harmony.
If the other party sees the turmoil in the Federation and wants to take the opportunity to seize the territory, it can explain why their tribes are allied together for their own interests, but they can't understand why they want to take Fengrao Plain as their destination.
You must know that from the interior of the Western Territory to the border, and then to Raofeng City, you need to pass through many cities, most of which are orc cities. Since it is for the purpose of seizing territory, it is not very good to be nearby. Why do you travel all the way to Fengrao Plain?
You might say that the resources there are not rich enough, but that is for the more civilized federations, and what resources do those totem beastmen need, except that mutant beasts are used to provide meat and domesticate totem beasts, they don't have any needs.
The "barren" in the western region is that there are few people and few available resources, but there are quite a lot of mutant beasts. The cold current has reduced the mutant beasts in the other three realms. Only the western region has been less affected. The mutant beasts are still in groups, mainly relying on mutations. Why did the totem wild beastmen who lived as beasts give up there and run to the fertile plains that were truly wasteland to them? The totem wild beastmen would not be so stupid even if they had no brains.
So Chen Fang felt that the totem beastman appeared here for other purposes.
Then another question arises, how did the totem beastman suddenly appear on the Fengrao Plain without anyone noticing or getting any news.
One must know that from here in the western region, the cities of wild orcs who have been integrated into the life of the federation on the way will not let thirty thousand totem wild orcs set foot on their territory so easily.
Although they are of the same race at root, conceptually the totem wild beasts regard the federal wild beasts as cowards and dogs. The mortal enemies, if they don't meet each other, they will live in peace, but when they meet, they will definitely see each other, and they will definitely fight, so it is impossible that no news will come out.
Although the Federation's communication is almost paralyzed now, and it is impossible to receive news immediately, such a large number of totem beastmen dispatched and came here through many cities. It must have taken a lot of time on the road. During this time, the human race will not confiscate any news. arrive.
If there is really no news, it means that there is some kind of deal between the Wild Beasts of the Western Region and the Totem Wild Beasts.
And Chen Fang always felt that the human army seemed to have fallen into a trap.
The charming girl on the side didn't pay much attention to what Wenren wanted to know. Now it's meaningless and helpful to think about why the other party appeared here, so she brought the topic back. She very much agreed with what Jimo just said, and said own guesswork.
"If you say that all of the above are calculated, it's not that I want to belittle the totem beastmen. If you say that they are indeed powerful in combat, but in terms of intelligence, they are not born with this material, so I think the biggest possibility is their behind. There is something behind the scenes."
"Behind the scenes...it's possible. This also explains why the totem beastman suddenly appeared here." Jimo nodded.
Hearing the two women mentioned that there might be a mastermind behind the scenes, Chen Fang suddenly remembered that he had seen the totem beastman, Neha and Gong Fang in a small wild village. I had doubts, but I didn't take it to heart. Now it looks very suspicious. I doubt that the meeting was related to the appearance of the totem beastman, but I can't find any evidence.
Wenren interjected again, "It's useless to say these things. Now that the food in the city is gone, what should we do next?"
Mei Mei and Jimo immediately showed headache expressions. Indeed, it seems useless to discuss the purpose of the totem beastman now. There is a very important problem to be solved right now.
Before finding a way to deal with this problem, the three women glared at Chen Fang, the instigator.
"Hey hey, accident, accident, I don't want this either."
Chen Fang was embarrassed.
