Volume 3: Tides of Darkness Chapter 216: The War of Social Animals
Hellscream was dreaming again. He dreamed that he returned to Draenor and led the army of the Warsong Clan to sweep through the Draenei villages. He waved Gorehowl and roared as he chopped down the Draenei warriors one by one, feeling happy and excited.
"For the Horde! Kill!" Hellscream roared and rushed into the village. A young Draenei appeared in front of him, and Hellscream chopped him with his axe without hesitation.
However, in a flash, the Draenei turned into the little Minotaur seen during the day.
Hellscream was stunned as he looked at the little Minotaur lying on the ground. He looked around blankly. It was not a Draenei village, but a Tauren village. It also seemed like his village in Nagrand. The scene around him was hazy, and a sense of fear rose in Hellscream's heart.
The little minotaur on the ground turned into an orc child with his back to him. He inexplicably had a feeling in his heart that it was his son.
"For the tribe! Kill!"
The shouting suddenly woke Hellscream from his sleep. He was sweating all over, not knowing whether he was excited or scared. The nightmare just now was very realistic, and until now, he had not been able to completely get rid of that feeling.
"For the tribe! Kill!"
The sound rang out again. At first he thought he was still dreaming, but he soon realized that it was not a dream. The sound of shouting and killing came from outside the wooden house, occasionally with the roar and screams of the Minotaur.
No, it wasn't for the tribe, the voice was shouting - "For the Empire!"
Empire? He suddenly woke up. It was a centaur.
When he rushed out of the wooden house, he saw a tragic scene. In the dark night, the village was on fire and every wooden house was burning.
In the darkness outside the village, you can see a large mass of enemies. Countless monsters with human heads and horse bodies are constantly shooting rockets into the wooden houses in the village.
Hellscream saw the minotaur being shot to death by a hail of arrows, being lassoed with ropes , and dragged out of the village.
He saw the strong minotaur named Raging Hoof roaring and charging forward, but was covered by countless arrows and instantly turned into a hedgehog.
He saw the old minotaur roaring and stomping the ground, summoning rocks to smash several centaurs to death, and then he was shot to death by a rain of arrows.
He saw the little minotaur, lying in the mud with his eyes open.
Hellscream's rage instantly flared up, "Ah!" he roared, immediately attracting the attention of several Centaur raiders.
"There's another one there, kill him!"
"Don't let him get away!"
Several centaurs rushed towards him, and Hellscream met them without hesitation...
…
Brother Xiao Ma looked at the burning Tauren village and couldn't help but yawn. It was really not easy to work for others these days. It was tiring to work and do planning during the day, but he was also busy at night and had to play games to help his boss fight. It was really hellish.
If it weren't for the free gaming helmet and overtime pay, he wouldn't do it.
It can be said that the aesthetic tastes of these rich people are really weird. They had good human overlords but chose to come to Kalimdor and set up a Centaur Empire, forcing their employees to become half-human, half-horse monsters. This can be regarded as the real "corporate animal".
"My Lord, I am right, right? This is the last stronghold of the Minotaur."
The harpy chieftain on the side said flatteringly.
Since being conquered by the Centaurs, the Harpies have joined the Centaur Empire as scouts and aerial reconnaissance forces.
Although its frontal combat capability is very weak, it is really convenient for finding these hiding Tauren tribes.
Brother Xiao Ma took a look at the harpy beside him. This creature had a seductive feminine appearance and bright feathers. It was quite beautiful at first sight, but the two bird legs were a bit of an eyesore. Some furry lovers might like it very much. He just felt his scalp tingling when he saw it.
Brother Ma (Centaur General): "Well, you did a good job. I will recommend you for your achievements later. As long as you are loyal to my Khan, you will be rewarded greatly."
The harpy leader took the opportunity to say, "Sir, why don't you hand over those minotaurs to us? My daughters are very hungry."
Harpies have no males. Their way of reproduction is to capture males of other races and force them to mate. It doesn't matter what race the males are, and all the offspring they give birth to are harpies.
"No, these prisoners are still useful. Our boss - er, I mean our Khan needs them ."
At this moment, there was suddenly a commotion in the village ahead, and a dark shadow rushed out from the burning village like the wind.
The Centaur archers on guard immediately fired a hail of arrows.
The rain of arrows came towards him, and Hellscream did not dodge or evade. He waved Blood Roar to block several arrows shot at his vitals, but the rest of his body could not be protected. In an instant, he was hit by several arrows in the rain of arrows, but the pain only made him more crazy.
Hellscream leaped up - Fearless Slash!
A figure flashed across the night sky and chopped a centaur in half with one axe.
At this time, he could finally see the enemies in front of him clearly. These enemies really deserved the name of Centaurs. Their upper bodies were very similar to those of humans, but they were much more rugged and covered with thick manes.
The lower body is in the shape of a horse.
Could it be that the Centaurs are the offspring of humans and horses? This thought suddenly popped up in Hellscream's mind. He didn't think much about it. At this moment, he just wanted to kill as many people as possible.
These centaurs are clearly divided into two categories: the archers, which are made up of centaur archers and centaur hunters. Most of them do not wear armor, or only wear simple leather armor, and use bows and arrows to kill enemies at a distance.
The other category is the armored men - composed of Centaur raiders and Centaur pioneers, wearing heavy leather armor, and some even wearing iron armor, holding battle axes, spears, and giant swords, charging head-on.
At this time, the Centaur archers quickly dispersed, and dozens of Centaur raiders armed with battle axes and lances rushed towards him, like a group of armored cavalry, galloping.
Hellscream used his ultimate skill without hesitation - Bladestorm!
The sword energy spun like a whirlwind and slashed out, blood and flesh flew everywhere, just like a meat grinder, cutting a bloody alley through the Centaur formation.
With just one move, he killed more than a dozen Centaur warriors.
"What is that!?" Xiao Ma Ge was shocked. He was no longer sleepy. Looking at the monster that slaughtered his men, he was horrified. "Grom Hellscream? Damn, where did this guy come from? Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! All of them!"
Brother Xiao Ma was both surprised and happy. He was surprised because this thing was not easy to deal with. He knew the name of Hellscream, and this was a monster that could chop down a demigod. He didn't know if the hundreds of people under his command could handle it.
He kind of regretted that he only brought 300 troops this time. He originally thought it was just a small Minotaur refuge, but he didn't expect to encounter such a killing god.
What's exciting is that these epic heroes and important plot characters will definitely , such as plot weapons and the like, any one of which can be sold for millions.
If this can bring out the Blood Roar, then it would be a great success.
If you hand it over to your boss, promotion and salary increase are just around the corner.
Thinking of this, I suddenly became excited.
"Kite, fly the kite, everyone run." He yelled and started running.
The most powerful point of the Centaur is its excellent mobility. It can run and shoot arrows at the same time. If the enemy can't catch up, they can only take the beating. The so-called kite-flying tactic is simple and practical. This trick always works when fighting with the Minotaur. No matter how strong you are, if you can't catch up, you can only be a target.
At this time, hundreds of Centaur archers suddenly scattered, running around and shooting dense arrows.
However, this time the trick didn't work.
Fearless slash!
Hellscream leaped into the centaurs and killed one with one axe.
Earth-splitting slash!
The ground seemed to be split by an invisible blade, and the Centaurs were split in half wherever it passed.
The Centaur roared in fear, and Xiao Ma Ge knew that was a phenomenon that would only occur when the morale value was below 60.
He hurriedly shouted, "Don't be afraid, he is alone, keep fighting for the empire!"
At the same time, activate the 'Invigorating Aura' skill to restore the morale of your subordinates.
However, after he shouted twice, Hellscream's eyes suddenly looked at him, his scarlet eyes were extremely eye-catching in the darkness.
Not good! Xiao Ma Ge suddenly felt like he was falling into an icy cave.
Damn it! He raised the two-handed axe in his hand. After all, I am a Centaur General. I am facing a skeleton-level BOSS, and I have so many brothers here. I should be able to win.
Fearless Slash! The next second, Hellscream roared and leaped towards Xiao Ma Ge.
