Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 2421 Hill Didn’t Understand
Especially after the collapse of the Warcraft Kingdom.

Although some ethnic groups who were truly innocent and just didn't dare to interfere were spared by Merkel, these guys, who were not very courageous to begin with, immediately moved into the mountains as a whole.

Some who felt they couldn't bear it anymore took a number of their tribesmen to look for their former Undead companions...mostly those who were young, beautiful, and had smooth hair.

All Warcraft that have been with the undead for a long time know the nature of these guys: animal companions may not be strong, but they cannot be ordinary.

Either it's grotesquely ugly or extremely beautiful, but at least it has to have long and smooth hair.

Otherwise, they won’t be able to compete with the big rabbits in Hill... This group of monsters don’t intend to let their powerful legendary counterparts follow the Undead, but those who have just reached adulthood, have a promising future, but are most likely to die midway.

However, this is only a small part of it.

Frankly speaking, Merkel was actually in the most terrifying state of madness in Warcraft at that time. However, due to Alice's departure and a little clarity brought about by his past experiences, even though he guessed that there must be the hidden hand of the human gods, Merkel still did not go crazy towards humans like his ancestors did.

But before he vented his anger, he did have some problems with his sanity.

So, even though they slaughtered so many people that the aristocracy in the Warcraft Kingdom was almost wiped out, there must have been some who reacted quickly enough and escaped.

With all the masterminds eliminated, Merkel's main targets are still the tiger and leopard tribes who betrayed him... It is understandable that other monsters would do these things.

Wasn’t the Silver Wolf King also betrayed by some magical beasts of other races back then?
What drives Merkel crazy is that the tigers and leopards, whom she trusts so much and for whom she has fought so hard for power and interests, are the ones who have done the most ruthless things.

Merkel actually didn't think that he had ever given his fellow countrymen the illusion that he would give up Alice's interests between himself and Alice.

He puts Alice first in everything he does.

Moreover, it constantly reminds these monsters how powerful and terrifying Alice's adoptive father, Hill, the Son of the Earth, is.

Their small Warcraft Kingdom could be destroyed with just a single move from Hill.

However, what Merkel did not expect was that the tiger and leopard tribes did not want to live a glorious life under his leadership... What these guys wanted was that everything Merkel had would be sacrificed for the benefit of the race.

Even Merkel herself can be sacrificed, so what does her wife count for?

As for Hill…didn’t he leave Trahill?

When he comes back, even if he wants to settle accounts with the Warcraft Kingdom, he has to find Merkel first!

Although he didn't know whether their weird ideas were instilled by the dead fox... but after Hill knew the thoughts of these animals, his first reaction was that maybe there was nothing wrong with Gruumsh's incredibly high pressure on the orcs and the orc pantheon, including his wives and children.

Of course, Hill will not forgive Merkel because of those so-called misunderstandings... He is the one who is wrong because he doesn't even understand the nature of his own subordinates.

But Hill also admitted that he made some mistakes.

Although some of the monsters he had come into contact with were brutal and cunning, they all knew who not to mess with.

However, those monsters who managed to protect themselves during the long invasion of monsters and even did not commit any sins, became completely different creatures after gaining power.

Because they understand human nature, they think they really have humanity... This is Hill's biggest mistake.

But it was precisely because of this realization that Hill did not make similar mistakes after he went to Toril.

No matter how friendly the orcs or how normal the beastmen were, Hill chose to turn a blind eye.

Although I also hope that I grew up eating cuteness, normal people grow up by learning lessons!
In short, because Merkel's killing was ruthless but not thorough enough, some scattered groups of wild beasts began to appear in the area of ​​the dwarf kingdom, which was originally peaceful.

They are just groups of ordinary animals led by these escaped monsters. They are nothing to the undead, but they are still quite troublesome for ordinary people to encounter.

As for the Dwarf Kingdom, anyone with a little business sense will not let it go, and caravans and mining teams from various countries come in an endless stream.

Before that, this trade route could be freely passed as long as some good things were offered to the Kingdom of Warcraft.

The undead are quite capable, but the mining business has become less profitable due to the existence of the undead... Although the miners still have a hard time, at least they are now fully equipped, and the mines will not be left without any support and may collapse due to random digging.

In other words, the labor cost has reached the highest point that merchants can bear... If they continue to give tasks to the undead, they will really lose money.

However, the more troublesome problem is that due to the existence of a certain god of fairness and justice, the compensation for mining merchants has been raised to an unbearable level.

If one dies it’s bad luck, if two die it’s a loss, if one more dies it’s bankruptcy.

Although the cries from these businessmen were a bit exaggerated, the gap was actually not too outrageous.

The most important thing is that they have already paid the cost to mine these mines...those supports, those tools, those strange objects, each of them costs money!
What can we do?

Between bankruptcy and losses, the merchants chose to cry out to the god of nobility...Those who can play this kind of human cost game are basically nobles.

Thanks to the undead, everyone in Trahil knew that the God of Nobles played a major role in the collapse of the Warcraft Kingdom.

What can the god of nobility do?

With his original temper, he would just treat these bad things as necessary losses and let the unlucky guys endure it themselves.

But after experiencing the terrible poison of faith, the God of Nobility could still understand a little bit about the warmth and coldness of the world... If he really did that, the miners would be the only ones who would suffer in the end.

Then, the more self-righteous and kind-hearted the nobles were, the greater the losses they suffered.

The God of Nobility, who did not want to repeat the same mistake, finally issued a call for nobility, asking those noble sons who were still willing to follow him to go to the Dwarf Kingdom to open up wasteland with the nobility orders recognized by the Lord of Contracts and the God of Justice and Fairness.

The Salar nobles were actually not that enthusiastic about this matter. After all, their capable children had basically been settled in their own country and even had enough room for development.

Even though a long time has passed, the traces of the war are still there, and the emerging nobles cannot make up for so many shortcomings.

But, how to say it... After discovering that William was quite interested in this matter and even made some efforts, a new king decided to flatter his boss.

Finally, those servants in the Knight Academy who had hopes of advancement were pulled out.

With sufficient energy replenishment, more than half of these knight squires successfully advanced.

The students in this Knight Academy actually all have some problems with their backgrounds...either their family assets are no longer able to be divided up for them, and they can only spend money to send them to the Knight Academy to give it a try.

Or, someone like Edgar, whose identity is awkward and no one is willing to accept him even if someone offers money.

Many of them were caused by their ambiguous relations with the aristocratic church.

So, faced with King Salar's passionate call and a large amount of resource subsidies, these graduated students followed him.

Of course, Edgar is not a student, but a teacher who has already graduated.

After experiencing a lot of blood and gore, and under the influence of his biological mother who had a strong presence outside, Edgar silently returned to the Knight Academy and became a good teacher.

However, his silence was worthless in front of his biological mother who was already wearing a red robe.

It was really difficult for him to continue staying in Sarar since both of his parents were red robes of the noble church.

"Edgar, what happened?" Hill was really curious. "Can he still be used by others?"

Although no one in Salar cares about the red-robed archbishop of the Noble Church, no one would easily attack Edgar.

"He once did something ridiculous, claiming that he was the son of Perast's neighbor!" Liszt said helplessly, "Although everyone knows what happened, it still doesn't prevent the two from combining.

Probably, he inherited all the shortcomings of both parties, so he claimed that after Edgar left Salar and gave up all the power here, he was the most qualified to inherit Edgar's property. "

Hill, for the first time, felt that his brain was not enough and he didn't quite understand.
