Auto Hunting With My Clones - Chapter 178
< Undead Warriors (2) >
Orc.
They are of a similar race with green or brown skin.
Because of its sharp fangs and powerful jaw, it has a tough appearance even at first glance, and was once treated as a monster because of its strength and body, which are 2 to 3 times stronger than humans on average.
[We are not monsters.]
However, they were a species with intelligence.
An understanding of nothingness, a culture that worships combat and strength, and even a mysterious study called witchcraft that is different from human magic and engineering.
Even worshiping their own gods, they were almost human except for their appearance.
However, there was a part that looked uncivilized and barbaric when seen in a developed human society.
A cannibalistic practice of eating the body of a member of the village when he dies.
A militant propensity to plunder and destroy rather than engage in productive activities.
Even a messy town with little concept of architecture and sanitation.
[What did that mean?]
And the Orcs were well aware of that fact.
But it was just their culture.
Orcs themselves are not monsters.
He knew very well that he was a member of the same society in this world.
That’s why they rose up against the behavior of humans who captured their orcs as slaves and treated them as monsters.
This was because of the great warriors and wise men among them.
Draxar, the first orc king, was the strongest warrior in orc history.
Violan, the priest of souls who was compared to the human archmage.
The two were sad and angry at the former orcs’ plight and wanted to change all of this.
So he led a meeting with other tribes who were of the same race but always fought each other.
It’s by pressing it with force.
The first meeting of the former tribal chiefs started like that.
There they caught a glimpse of Draxar’s greatness.
Overwhelming power and wisdom.
Everyone was impressed by this, and the tribal chiefs appointed Draxar as their chieftain.
It was the beginning of the tribal alliance of Orcs.
After many fights and wars, the Orcs drove out the humans and had their own territory.
It was a fight that couldn’t be lost.
Even when they could not unite as one, the Orcs were treated as monsters by humans and were threatening beings.
Since they are united as one, normal humans can’t be opponents.
In addition, to the difference in population coming from fertility.
Wouldn’t it be okay if the hero of mankind stepped forward?
Going to the top ranks didn’t make much of a difference.
Basically, Orcs who revere battle.
Among the numerous orcs, there were many orc fighters called sword masters by humans.
In particular, when the power of Violan’s unique magic was added, he could not lose even if he lost the war.
It was an offensive that was so colossal that almost the destruction of humans was certain.
However, as the guardian dragons of each empire came forward, the advance of the orcs had no choice but to stop.
No matter how great the orcs were, they weren’t so bad in front of the dragon.
Anyway, the war ended and the Orcs built their own great Orc Kingdom, Shakanore.
That’s how the great prosperity of the Orcs began.
That is until Cranid invaded.
-…In the end, because of Cranid, the orc kingdom Shakanoor was destroyed and their entire territory was encroached on by Cranid. And from that encroached place, infinitely generated monster orcs are attacking.
When Sang-woo pointed out the current situation, Nigel replied that he was right.
– That’s right.
-But when I wiped it out a while ago, there were orcs? Monsters with buck teeth and muscular arms and legs like humans.
-yes. Even now, it’s not like the orcs aren’t attacking.
-But you mean more orcs are coming?
Nigel nodded.
-That’s right. Every year around now. There will probably be many more coming than now. To the extent that this plain is overcrowded…
Nigel murmured as he gazed at the plain beyond the barrier in front of the castle wall.
A look of fear and tension was on his face.
Hana Sang-woo was not very nervous.
‘Should I wait for that? Can’t we just go ahead and wipe it out?’
Wouldn’t it be nice to destroy all the dungeon cores where orcs and other monsters are created without having to wait dangerously?
Then the number of attacking monsters would decrease significantly, and the possibility of breaking the barrier would also decrease.
Sangwoo shared his thoughts.
-Well then, Duke, can’t we just go ahead and sweep it up?
A question that Sangwoo spit out.
And those words shocked Nigel.
-…Sweeping it out first?
He reacted in surprise, his eyes wide open as if he hadn’t thought of that at all.
-yes. You don’t have to wait. We’ll wipe it out before we gather here.
-okay. Nigel I’d better go first.
Raven also agreed as if he liked Sang-woo’s idea.
Then Nigel mumbled with a bewildered expression.
-…that’s right. There was also a way to attack first. Heh heh… I didn’t think of that since I was so shut up in the barrier.
Nigel is basically a person who has been only defending and defending inside the barrier for decades.
When tens of millions of monsters were attacking, how could they think of attacking on the contrary?
Such a counterattack was possible only in the early days of the war against Cranid, but now it was an act of suicide that was absolutely impossible.
‘If it’s Hana-hyung and Sang-woo…’
It wasn’t impossible to attack first if they had the power of a hundred per day, or a million per day.
After hearing Sang-woo’s words, Nigel was shocked and opened his eyes at the same time.
His dazed eyes focused for a moment and looked straight at Raven and Sangwoo.
-great. If it’s my brother, I think he’ll be able to attack well enough. So… may I ask you to attack first?
Nigel cautiously asks.
Even though he was a duke, it was a bit pity to see him asking for a favor quietly, so that it was hard to find any dignity.
Raven patted Nigel on the shoulder.
– Of course I have to help. Leave it to me. And…
Raven looks at Sang-woo at the same time.
– Disciple, are you going too?
Sang-woo smiled at those words.
-I don’t care.
Yes.
Sangwoo had nothing to do with it.
Because the alter ego will come out anyway.

Office of the Duke of Bismarck.
At the desk in the office, Duke Bismarck was sitting with a serious expression on his face.
‘It’s time for the Orcs to come.’
In fact, it was considered an annual event because the Orcs came to visit once a year when the heat went away.
However, there was a reason why his expression was so serious.
‘It’s the largest scale ever…’
According to the report of the special agents who traveled outside the barrier to gather information, the number of Orcs gathered so far was the highest ever.
Duke Bismarck once again looked through the report that surfaced in the communication port.
“…Patrol the outermost area of the territory of Shakanoor, the old orc kingdom, about 323 Nir away from the Sardubang region to the east. The number of monsters was so large that it was difficult to check inside, but even with the naked eye, the army seemed to be more than twice as large as before. Please check the attached video…”
323 Nir was a distance of about 50 km in Earth metric.
Looking at the video, I saw that the orcs with black skin were lined up in a dense row, not the original green and brown skin.
And in between, Orc warriors and Orc fighters that are so big that ordinary Orcs look small.
‘…Draxar…’
But they weren’t important.
A being standing in the middle of them, silently emitting red eyes.
A gigantic orc with a height of almost 7-8m, a size that even most ogres would eat.
That orc was Draxar, the first orc chieftain and the first orc king.
‘It’s gotten bigger.’
That monster, the first Orc King, was gradually increasing in size, perhaps because it was getting stronger as each wave of the Orc army went through.
And, compared to the normal orcs sitting at his bedside, the size of the orc was infinitely dwarfed.
It was Bioran, the high priest of the Orcs.
It was at Draksar’s bedside, as if he were controlling Draksar.
A combination of the strongest warrior and the strongest shaman.
Even if they attacked right now, they were difficult to stop.
But right now, Draksar and Violan just stand still, not doing anything, waiting for something.
And the Orcs around them followed them and just stayed in their places, blowing their noses.
It’s like waiting for the right time to compete.
‘That irregular is the problem.’
Monsters encroached by Cranid lose their reason and attack blindly towards one place.
They had no concept of rest.
Just attacking and attacking constantly without stopping.
However, the current Orc army was still in place as if under the control of that Orc king and shaman.
‘Hmm… Then I guess I should help this time.’
And the reason Duke Bismarck is worried while looking at the orcs now.
It was because of the Raven duchy.
The strongest swordsman who was pushed to the periphery by politics.
Even when the former Raven duke was a duke, the Bismarck dukes also boasted so much strength that they were behind them.
However, after the Raven Duke disappeared, the Raven Duke’s family, who lost their right to speak, became a territory in the forefront of their breath, and their power was exhausted after a long war.
‘Well, since I’ve been bothering you a lot, I think I can help you now. That’s the problem.’
A report that came to him a while ago.
It was information that all the monsters were swept away around the barrier that the Raven duchy was in charge of.
In addition, official information that the former Duke of Raven has returned.
‘If the real former Duke of Raven came back…’
Then there was no need to send support.
It would be difficult if the Raven duke family made a mistake and became their competitor again.
‘Hmm, then I’ll have to prepare for support first and then apply for it after looking at the situation.’
And what the Duke of Bismarck decided was simple.
Look at the situation and help.
If Raven Duke’s power remained the same, he would stop it on its own, and if not, he judged that it wouldn’t be too late to help him then.
This was a very risky idea.
Now that the emperor had fallen, almost all practical matters were being decided through his hands, but the Duke of Bismarck was not considering the risk factors even in determining the great and small matters of the empire.
It was a decision that could put the empire at risk, but Duke Bismarck didn’t even think it was dangerous.
Because that wasn’t what mattered to him.
To identify factors that could threaten one’s position.
Because that was a more important issue.
However, he did not know until then.
That Duke Raven came back stronger.
And the fact that he has a disciple he doesn’t know.
* * *
Blame it!
Sang-woo, his alter egos, and Raven landed lightly on their seats.
Raven opened his mouth.
-…that’s amazing.
Sang-woo also agreed.
-Iknow, right…. these are the orcs
Yes.
Sang-woo and his party had reached an area where the Orc army was concentrated.
There were so many orcs standing on the endless plain (in fact, I couldn’t tell if it was originally a plain or if it was made flat due to a bunch of monsters) so many orcs could not see the end.
The orcs growled as Sang-woo and his party stood there.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrere said that
he
did not move, such as rushing.
He just glared at Sang-woo and his company with bloodshot eyes.
-Why aren’t you moving?
Around the time Sang-woo tilted his head as if he didn’t know.
Raven reached out as if he knew something.
-That guy… Draksar?
A portrait of the first king of Orcs that remains in his memory.
A super-giant orc that looked exactly like it was in the middle of the line in front of the orc legion, emitting red eyes.
-Draxar? the first king?
-okay. I guess he’s in control.
Raven’s judgment was correct.
It was because of the power of Draksar and Vior that he kept all the monsters attacking blindly under his control.
-Then if you beat him, will the orcs come in?
Sang-woo talked cheaply(?), but Raven nodded as if he was right.
-I think so. If you carelessly touch it, the group of orcs will start to move.
– Hmm…
Sang-woo is in trouble.
Do you want to hit the head first or the body first?
But the thought was short-lived and the decision was quick.
-We’ll wipe out the Orcs first. It’s good to match skills when you’re crowded like this.
Maybe it’s because it’s easier to hit the still ones than the moving ones.
Also, it would be difficult if a group of orcs leaked out due to a mistake while dealing with an orc king who seemed unusual even at a glance.
-That would be nice.
Raven also agreed and pulled out his sword.
It was his favorite sword, the elemental sword Stormbringer.
Stormbringer buzzing and crying as if Raven’s touch was good, perhaps recognizing the owner.
‘It’s been a while. This feeling…’
The Stormbringer, which was caught again after decades, was wrapped around the hand, despite the years.
Now, the only thing left to do is to use the Stormbringer.
And while Raven focused on the sword, Sang-woo also finished his work.
[Sub-space]
The alter egos protruding through the sub-space.
The total was over 10 gigabytes.
And each of the swords in the hands of those alter egos.
-Master, shall we go to the storm?
-good night.
As soon as the words fell, Sang-woo and his alter ego soared into the sky.
[Excuse Field]
Sloth fell to the place where the Orc King was in the middle of the Orcs and pressed down the Orcs.
The orcs lost consciousness and began to lie down in a sense of exhaustion.
The orcs fell in the form of a circular area covered by the exhaust field.
However, the king of orcs in the middle is in good condition.
‘I guess it’s because it’s a boss level…’
But Sang-woo didn’t care.
Because it was just for the purpose of tying up the boss.
[Storm Slash]
Green-blue auras began to rise from the bodies of the clones around them.
Stormbriar level 8.
It was a precursor to the onset of a storm.
and the ground beneath it.
A
tremendous wind began to rise around Raven holding the Stormbringer.
