Chapter 1275 The Dog Enters the City
Ever since the first generation of the Southern Lion Duhan Orvis built this black fortress in the vast wilderness between the fertile soil and the wild forest, the towering walls and solid portals have been unswervingly guarding this country. , its door was once open to kings, to envoys from other kingdoms of order, and to monks of the Order State, but today, it welcomed the most special group of "visitors" in its history.
The Black Crow Fortress is about to open its doors to welcome a group of rough animals from the wilderness - subraces, Warcraft, savage creatures that are no different from beasts in the eyes of humans. Now they have become the guests that this glorious fortress must open its doors to welcome.
The battle in the wasteland has ended. Thick smoke rises from the slowly burning fire pit, and the dust scattered by the wind swirls and is blown away. The entire land seems to be shrouded in a layer of moving mist, and the bloody smell lingers. This disgusting smell will probably not dissipate until the next snowfall. The warriors of the beast tribe are cleaning up the corpses of their tribesmen, and their leader is already preparing to go to the human castle. According to the head wolf, it is to conduct an "epoch-making diplomatic activity."
Philip stood on the city wall and saw the dark group of magical beasts below swarming in chaos, but in the chaos, a wide open space had been vacated, and a dozen forest demon wolves were walking like pioneers. In front, two blue-gray giant monsters with crotch cloths around their heads carried a battle flag decorated with animal bones and followed closely. The battle flag was crookedly painted with tribal totems of unknown meaning. Behind them were demon apes and dwarfs. A large group of demons, jackals and goblins. Walking in the center of the team is an extremely huge ancient earth-walking dragon. It is the most eye-catching guy in the entire team: the four-meter-tall and nearly ten-meter-long earth dragon is covered with a rocky elemental carapace. The edges of the carapace are The spikes indicate that this earth dragon has lived for at least one hundred and seventy years. The word "Ancient" in the ancient earth-walking dragon does not refer to its age, but the name of this earth-walking dragon group. Scholars believe that this kind of earth-walking dragon is all the earth-walking dragon races in the wilderness and the lizard subspecies. The common ancestor of the species, so it was named "Ancient", and a 170-year-old earth dragon is already a terrifying wild beast: this shows that it has even withstood the chaos once The tide has gained many incredible powers in the baptism of primitive magic energy.
But this terrifying beast is actually just a mount.
Philip saw that a stone seat was installed on the back of the earth dragon. The seat was covered with animal skins and straw mats, and a human-looking figure wearing wolf skin was sitting on it. Due to the angle, he couldn't see the appearance of the man in wolf skin. He could only see a very obvious circle of light surrounding the man.
Of course, he did not connect that figure with the legendary "Head Wolf". Any person with normal logic would probably not have thought in advance that the "Head Wolf" who controlled the beast tide turned out to be a little girl. He only thought it was a wolf. The messenger was sent, and most of them were from the Sanctuary: In the battle just now, he had seen with his own eyes a group of powerful-looking human priests in the beast tide, although he didn’t know how this group of humans got mixed up with the Warcraft. , but he guessed that these people from the sanctuary were probably the reason why the beast tide came to help humans.
Perhaps the Warcraft chose a group of Sanctuary people to act as their ambassadors or translators, or maybe this wave of beasts was simply driven by the Sanctuary people behind them - this was the speculation of many ordinary soldiers on the city wall.
Phillip raised his head and continued to search for the big three-headed wolf among the vast number of monsters, but he didn't know that the real alpha wolf had already entered the city under his nose.
Lily sat on her throne - she liked this stone very much, so she simply asked her men to polish the stone and install it on "Leviathan". Leviathan was the name she gave to the dragon under her butt, and the latter was quite satisfied with it. Miss Alpha Wolf happily entered the city, left the wild forest, and came to the human territory. She felt as if she had returned to the world.
Lily looked curiously at the exotic Black Crow Fortress, while the black-armored knights who came out of the castle walked in front to lead the way for this special "envoy". Ulysses, the commander of the Black Blade Army, sent his most composed knights out to greet the team, and he himself led his staff to make all preparations for the reception in the Black Feather Square on the upper level of the fortress.
Probably ready for everything.
Well, he didn't even know if he was ready.
The great Duke Ulysses has never received such an "envoy" in his life. The usually majestic and steady Lion of the South also looked confused at this time. He has asked his staff and advisors more than once about the sub-race. Customs and habits, the answers he got were all kinds of things - making him want to throw those idiots under the city wall who talked so much on weekdays but couldn't even tell a lie at critical moments.
In fact, not long ago, the envoy from the Warcraft group came just after the battle - not a few inexplicable words from the terrifying black dragon lying on the tower, but a more formal letter from the envoy: A black forest night owl sent greetings from the first wolf and made some arrangements for the first wolf to enter the city. However, the brief letter did not agree on any specific etiquette procedures, so Duke Ulysses could only choose to arrange the meeting in accordance with the way the human kingdom receives envoys from foreign countries.
"Sir, is it really appropriate to let those... sub-races enter the city like this?" A staff member said uneasily behind the Duke, "The gate of the fortress is open, and there are countless barbaric races entrenched outside us. It feels really... There are fangs and claws in the throat..."
"So what if you don't open the door?" Ulysses didn't even bother to look back at his staff. "They have the ability to open the door by themselves and take a look at the black dragon, the flaming python, and the elemental lords - they even They can pull the entire castle right out of the ground without us opening the door.”
"...This is truly the gloomiest day in Black Crow Fortress."
"Don't say these depressing words," Ulysses straightened up. He had already seen the head of the huge earth dragon appearing at the end of the ramp in the square. "They helped us repel Chaos. From this point on, Opening the gate of Black Crow Fortress at this moment is an honorable act."
While he was talking, the alpha wolf's bodyguards had arrived at the square.
The people of order in this world and the husky spirits from another world finally completed a historic meeting.
Duke Ulysses raised his head hard and stretched his body straight. Even though the ancient earth dragon in front of him was several times taller than him, he still maintained the majesty of a kingdom's nobles and soldiers here without flinching. He was dressed in black armor and The leather cape made him look particularly heroic.
Then he saw the ancient Earthly Dragon measuring its body slightly. A ball of light jumped twice on its body, and then a girl wearing a wolfskin cloak jumped out from the rock armor.
The girl stared at the southern guard with golden eyes and looked at each other.
"Are you the leader here?" Lily was the first to speak. She was so careless that she didn't feel the atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Seeing that the other party remained silent, she took the initiative to break the silence.
Ulysses was still wondering when the alpha wolf would appear. Hearing these words, he immediately woke up and said calmly: "I am the southern governor of the Talos Kingdom, the current patriarch of the Orvis family, Yuri Grand Duke Sis Orvis, the leader of the Black Blade Legion, the general guarding the Black Crow Fortress - here to welcome the lord of monsters from the forests and mountains, the awesome alpha wolf."
"Yeah, your name is so long, it's like the landlord's business card." Lily blinked in surprise, then pointed at herself, "I'm a wolf."
Ulysses: "...Huh?"
"I am the alpha wolf," Lily continued pointing at herself, "How do you know me? Logically speaking, this is our first contact with you humans, right?"
Ulysses deserves to be the Governor of the Southern Territory. Although he was dumbfounded by the truth about the "alpha wolf" in front of him, he still took the words as a reflex: "The deeds of the alpha wolf and the herd have been spread throughout the kingdom. Our astrologers and mystics knew that a new star was rising in the south half a month ago. But none of us expected that the alpha wolf turned out to be..."
Lily's eyes widened: "What's wrong with me?"
"Ahem, it's nothing, it's nothing," Ulysses coughed twice, "The alpha wolf is indeed as awesome as the rumors say. But I'm a little curious, are you... a human?"
Lily's answer was particularly sincere: "I'm not a human being."
Then, before the talkative human general in front of her could continue to ask questions, she waved her hand vigorously: "Hey, don't say so many things, I'm getting hungry from all the trouble - Ordusa should have been asked before. Did I inform you that the meal is ready? When will we have dinner?"
Ulysses' expression was a little subtle, but then he nodded: "Of course, we have prepared it according to the black dragon's instructions. But no one here knows what the braised pork ribs are, so we can only braise them in the way the mountains do. …”
Lily's eyes shone as soon as she heard the stew: "Okay, okay, hurry up, hurry up!"
After a while, the husky girl looked at the three large iron pots with fragrant aroma in front of her in a daze.
"Meat is good..." Our alpha wolf lady felt that she might not be able to finish a meal for the first time in her life, "But it seems a bit much... why three pots?"
Ulysses and his staff looked around, no one knew what to say.
There was only one thought swirling in the Southern Governor's mind: "...Who on earth found out that the alpha wolf has three heads?"
