Chapter 172, Ratman's Goblin Ranch, the Fall of Four Seasons Ranch
The wolf knights and argali knights that gathered together did not quickly devour the rat knights who did not have an advantage in numbers.
On the contrary, the two sides were completely intertwined.
It was already difficult to extricate themselves.
Not long after, a large number of rat warriors rushed to the battlefield, amid the chaotic shouts.
Even if this mixed army had a more powerful wolf knight joining.
The result was not much better than the argali knights led by the old one-eyed man.
This time, Shu Zhan rushed to the front line.
The wielding spear in his hand kept picking up the troublesome guys in front of him. Around him, those fierce knights wandered around to guard, and ordinary rat knights surged.
Even though these wolf knights were quite powerful, they could not stop Shu Zhan's pace.
Shu Zhan took the lead and came to the wolf knight commander.
At this moment, the wolf knight commander, who had killed countless rats in this winter, showed a trace of panic on his face.
Then there was a roar with gritted teeth.
He raised the scimitar in his hand and wanted to fight with Shu Zhan.
But Shu Zhan didn't take him seriously. With a simple cross, Shu Zhan easily knocked the scimitar in the hand of the wolf knight commander.
With another sweep, he was swept off the giant wolf.
He rolled on the grassland in a panic.
He was not qualified for an equal battle.
The giant wolf that wanted to rescue was killed by the fierce knight who followed closely.
Seeing the giant wolf accompanying him die, the wolf knight commander had no time to grieve, and a kind of fear that came out of nowhere appeared in his heart.
Shu Zhan didn't kill him.
An extremely malicious look was cast on the wolf knight commander.
This was a kind of scrutinizing look.
It was cast from the dwarf rat man riding on the giant rat.
Around, the wolf knights wanted to rescue after discovering that their commander was knocked down, but they were blocked by the silent fierce knight.
The situation was deteriorating rapidly for them.
Sharp screams, fanatical shouts, greedy eyes, surging gray-black waves, and pairs of greedy eyes.
Obviously, these guys in front of him were just ratmen, and they had killed so many ratmen in this cold winter.
But why?
Why were they so scared!
A wolf knight who roared easily killed the ratmen warriors who were rushing around.
For a short moment, the ratmen warriors who gathered around stopped.
No more came.
The rustling figures surged in front of him, filling every inch of space in front of him.
They were just some weak and cowardly guys, no different from the guys he had killed before!
This powerful wolf knight said this in his heart.
He raised his chest, roared loudly, and waved the scimitar in his hand.
But what he got in return was the silent gaze.
A pair of scarlet eyes were cast on him, either brightly or darkly, and rustling sounds came from all around.
A ratman was pushed out of the team.
In panic, he wanted to retreat. The wolf knight wanted to continue to intimidate the guy in front of him, and eagerly waved the scimitar in his hand.
In panic, the ratman who was squeezed out of the team waved his spear randomly.
It didn't work much, and his head was cut off.
But the wolf knight was also injured. His cheek was scratched by the spear. This was not fatal, and even added a bit of ferocity to him.
But he was injured, he was injured!
There was more greed in his eyes. Even though these wolf knights were guys he had never seen before, they also had tails.
Having tails! That's also an achievement! It's also a blood mushroom!
A spear stabbed from the dark broke the deadlock on this battlefield.
The spear was sent into the abdomen of the giant wolf under the wolf knight's crotch at a tricky angle.
The giant wolf was stabbed in pain and raised its body high, and the wolf knight on it was thrown off the giant wolf.
The gathered rat warriors could no longer suppress the greed in their hearts.
The violent giant wolf was stabbed into a hedgehog almost instantly.
He fell down helplessly, and the powerful wolf knight screamed in fear at this moment.
A greedy ratman warrior grabbed his tail.
He wanted to hold the spear in his hand and turn over to fight, but another greedy ratman warrior grabbed his tail.
He screamed in fear.
"What are you doing!"
But it couldn't change anything.
He fell heavily to the ground in the strong drag.
The scream of fear was fleeting.
A chaotic battle broke out here later, in order to fight for the novel spoils, for a plush tail that was pulled off and covered with blood.
The battle did not last too long. This time, Rat War brought more ratmen and a larger army.
Although not all the wolf knights were left behind, some of the remaining teams rushed out of the chaotic battlefield and fled into the depths of the vast grassland.
But it didn't matter, Rat War's blanket was settled.
In the middle of the messy city ruins, a wolf orc was hung high up. It was the wolf knight commander.
A small cut was made on his body, and blood kept dripping.
Shu Zhan was squatting beside the wolf knight commander, happily stroking his dense hair.
The wolf knight commander was not dead yet.
In despair, he prayed to his god.
This was not without effect.
On the invisible level of mortals, a hole was torn in the space.
A giant hand with an illusory and hazy shape appeared, and quickly fell towards this realm with the force of thunder, and fell towards the messy ruins of the city.
But it didn't work.
A complex line divine eye also tore open the space to complete the descent. Under the gaze of the complex eyes composed of flowing lines, the giant hand gradually dimmed and returned to nothingness.
An angry groan was left behind.
This was the first time Du Yuan fought against the god of the wolf orcs.
Du Yuan won, but the repulsive force of the world also chased him randomly.
In order to avoid being thrown out of the world, the awakened body closed his eyes again.
But the complex divine eye was not retracted, hanging high in the sky, coldly watching everything in this clan world, high above, but protecting the rat people.
The wolf knight commander did not wait for the rescue of his devout belief in the god.
Collapsed in the center of the city, howling in despair.
The wailing lasted all night.
It finally stopped at dawn that day.
Shu Zhan waited for a few days in the ruins of the city, and waited for his warm fur cushion.
He was very happy.
He played with it wantonly in his hands. Of course, he didn't know that because of this fur cushion, he was hated by a hostile god.
After all, this was too humiliating.
This guy's behavior was too bad.
It was Du Yuan who saved him, otherwise he would have been beaten to death on the spot a few days ago.
However, the rats did not fear the heretic gods, and their sacrificial ceremonies were all performed on the ruins of the temples of the heretic gods.
If the temples of the sheep beastmen and the argali tribe had not been moved away by the wolf beastmen, there should have been two grand sacrifices held on this four-season pasture at this time.
Shu Zhan did not stay for too long.
After getting the fur cushion, he continued to advance into the depths of this grassland.
He needed a grand sacrifice.
And the grand sacrifice must trample on the ruins of the heretic gods to be carried out.
Heading deep into the grassland.
The main forces of this fertile four-season pasture were cleared by the ratmen, and will be completely brought under control with the construction of urban outposts and strongholds.
Although it is difficult to say how long this four-season pasture can remain fertile under the control of the ratmen.
And a very interesting thing happened.
Deep in the grassland.
A brutal fight took place.
The two sides of the fight were the fleeing wolf knight and the argali knight.
The angry argali knight attacked the wolf knights who fled the battlefield in a panic.
The cold winter warmed up, the snow covering the grassland melted, and some buried things finally emerged.
The wolf knight, whose leader was killed, did not expect that he would be attacked by these argali knights.
He could not cope with it in a hurry.
He was brutally slaughtered.
After doing all this, he did not bring joy to the surviving argali knights, but only endless confusion.
They seemed to have lost everything.
Even if they worked hard and uncomplainingly under the command of these arrogant wolf orcs.
Standing in place for a long time.
Wandering in confusion.
As time went by, a pungent stench appeared beside them.
Until they met a migrating tribe.
At that moment, the two sides met each other from a distance on this empty grassland.
There was a little more panic in the migrating tribe.
But the priest in the tribe stabilized the chaotic scene.
This is a sheep orc tribe.
Both sides are losers on this grassland and former enemies.
The sluggish argali knights found the weak sheep orc tribe not far away.
No attack was launched.
The priest of the sheep orc tribe bravely approached the group of argali knights.
After getting closer, it was clear what was piled up where these argali knights gathered.
There were large pieces of corpses, large pieces of corpses that rotted and smelled after the ice and snow melted.
The sheep orc priest was stunned at this moment.
I don’t know what to say. These two originally powerful races have reached the end of the road.
In order to survive, the sheep beastmen began to migrate, toward the depths of the grassland, toward the place where the high priest Feng had been.
In order to survive, to escape the cruel war that was about to break out between the sadistic ratmen and the grassland.
They were going to the edge of the grassland, settle down by the endless bitter and salty river, and rebuild their homes.
Just before leaving.
Looking at the group of sluggish guys in front of them.
The sheep beastman priest left some things, some giant sheep, some goat milk, and some woolen clothes.
After reaching such a situation, the continuous hatred between the two sides seemed not so important.
Long.
When the corpse rotted into pale bones, the group of argali knights no longer drove away the vultures that fell.
Walked out of the endless confusion.
But they also had no home and relatives, and made a decision.
In the whistling, the group of argali knights began to run wildly on this vast grassland again, and did not turn back to challenge the ratmen.
Nor did they rush into the depths of the grassland to continue the war which had now lost its meaning.
Chasing in the direction where the sheep tribe left.
They were chasing the footprints of the sheep tribe.
But it was no longer for war. This group of argali knights who had lost their homes were looking for the slim hope and wanted to find a possibility from their former enemies.
A possibility of having a home again.
Of course, it might not be so smooth, after all, the two sides had a long war.
Will it be smooth?
But this is obviously another story.
………….
The war of the rats will not stop.
On the messy ruins, the construction of the city was continued by the slave rats who arrived later.
The construction of the city was going smoothly.
At the same time, the rat ranch was also developed when the ice and snow melted and the weather warmed up.
A large number of goblins, rabbits, and the captured sheep orcs were put on this vast grassland.
These rat ranchers who obtained land are making some attempts.
For the choice of grazing objects.
Goblins, rabbits, and sheep orcs are the objects they chose to graze.
A decision was made soon.
The sheep beastmen, the natives of this four-season pasture, were eliminated first.
It takes too long to grow, and they need to be monitored all the time. If the gathering scale is too large, there will even be certain risks.
You can't expect to drive away these tall and strong sheep beastmen with just some slave rats.
Even if they don't have any weapons in their hands.
Abandoned.
The remaining options are goblins and rabbits.
In fact, rabbits are indeed suitable for this vast grassland.
It's just a little too suitable. If these guys are grazed on the grassland, a series of complex underground holes will be dug soon.
And the speed is too fast.
If you want to catch them, you have to chase them all over the mountains, which is not suitable.
In the end, the old friends of the rat man, the noisy goblins, became the first choice.
These goblins also have the characteristics of gathering in groups, and they are also guys who can be fed by eating grass like slave rats, reproduce quickly, can't dig holes, and run slowly.
Although they are too weak to be sacrificed, they can only rely on their numbers to make do, but they are very suitable for grazing.
Although they are a little cold-resistant, this is a small problem.
All you need to do every winter is to capture all of these guys, keep some, sacrifice the rest, and put the remaining part back into the grassland in the spring of the following year.
Don't pay much attention to them, the noisy goblins will grow on their own on this grassland throughout the year.
A perfect cycle.
They are also very easy to feed and efficient.
Soon, goblins became the unanimous choice of all the rat farmers who obtained pastures.
As for where these goblins will be sent after their pastures are harvested.
There are already sales channels.
The temple guards never resist sacrifices, although some of these goblins are not qualified, but it doesn't matter.
As long as the amount that can be given at one time is enough, they will accept it all.
They can eat as much as they can.
As the richest group in the rat kingdom, you never have to doubt the financial resources of these guys.
