C3 Dark Forest

After the Great Flood Era, the Orc Clan frequently crossed the border. The Mount Abis of the Eichbonia Continent had plundered the towns of the Human Clan. As the leader of the Human Clan, Lau Yong naturally had to think for the sake of the humans. That was why he had tried to lead the humans to fight against those damn orcs. However, those orcs were too powerful, and ordinary humans could not fight against them. It was also because of this that Lau Yong had a headache over this matter.

In fact, in the past, Lau Yong thought that as long as the humans united, they could fight against those orcs. Therefore, he organized the villagers to fight to the death. However, the humans who had never been trained had very low combat power. In front of the orcs, they were pitifully weak. As such, the Human Clan had suffered repeated defeats and had been forced to retreat step by step.

Currently, the territory of the Human Clan was getting lesser and lesser. Most of it had been plundered by the orcs. To be exact, the territory of the Human Clan was getting lesser and lesser. Currently, apart from Main City Chang'ann City, the Human Clan basically didn't have a decent city. The cities around Chang'ann City were basically just some small towns. There were already some villages. Although those small towns and villages had decent fortifications, they were facing powerful orcs. The fortifications won't do much.

In Lau Yong's opinion, if this continued, Sooner or later the towns and villages would fall into the hands of the orcs. If the orcs kept pressing on, Human Clan's territory would eventually be plundered by the orcs. At that time, the Human Clan would probably not even have a place to rest. Lau Yong absolutely didn't want such a thing to happen, so he had a headache right now. He leaned back on the sofa. Frowning, he considered the matter.

Jiang Nan, who was sitting opposite him, seemed to be thinking about this as well. After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Nan suddenly said, "Master, since we humans are not as strong as the orcs, Then we might as well abandon the villages and towns, and gather all our forces together. This way, we can better reduce casualties and let everyone fight against the orcs together. Isn't that so? "

Lau Yong frowned and looked at Jiangnan. He shook his head and said, "It's not like I haven't thought of this method, but let all the humans gather in Chang'ann City. Do you think Chang'ann City can accommodate so many people? "Besides, what if we don't want those towns and villages? What about our land? Those lands can be used to grow food. If we don't have those lands, what will we eat in the future? "

Jiang Nan curled his lips and said," Maybe we can expand the Chang'ann City and turn it into a bigger city. Wouldn't that be enough? "

"Expande the Chang'ann City?" A complicated smile appeared on Lau Yong's face. "It's not as simple as you think. Chang'ann City isn't small to begin with. If we were to expand it, There was a need to rebuild the high walls and fortifications. In this way, they would have to spend a huge amount of manpower and resources. Actually, it was not difficult to build fortifications. The key was that the construction of fortifications required a large amount of wood, and the wood near Chang'ann City was almost exhausted. "Where are we going to find so much wood for such a huge fortification?"

Jiang Nan said," Isn't there still the Dark Forest? Dark Forest is a huge forest. There are a lot of trees in it. There are many towering trees, even hundreds or thousands of years old trees. We can go to Dark Forest to mine wood to build fortifications, can't we? "

After listening to what Jiang Nan said, Lau Yong thought it was feasible. However, after thinking about it, he frowned and said, "Our ancestors have never entered the Dark Forest before. Will there be any problems if we continue to mine wood like this?"

Jiang Nan shook his head and said with an indifferent look, "Although the Dark Forest is dangerous, we are only mining wood at the edge of the Dark Forest. So, I don't think anything will happen to us."

Lau Yong nodded and said, "Judging from the current situation, this is the only thing we can do."

In fact, for the current humans, apart from building strong fortifications, they could only do this. It seemed like there was no other way to stop those orcs. Therefore, Lau Yong could only take the risk and send people to Dark Forest to mine wood. Of course, the fortifications he built were not to expand the Chang'ann City. Because that would not be very reliable, and he just wanted to strengthen the defenses of every place. He wanted to make it harder for the orcs to attack the cities and towns of the Human Clan.

On the second day, Lau Yong sent hundreds of lumberjacks to Dark Forest to mine wood. He knew very well that the orcs would soon attack the villages and towns of Human Clan. He needed to make the best use of his time to build new fortifications to defend against the orcs. At the same time, he needed to train an army that could resist the orcs.

In fact, training an army was not something that could be done easily. He needed an excellent officer. The so-called excellent officers were those who had fought against the orcs and knew their weaknesses and fighting methods. Obviously, Lau Yong's army did not have such officers. Lau Yong felt helpless and helpless when he was training the army.

What made Lau Yong even more helpless was that there was no news of the Logging Army sent to Dark Forest the next day, as if they had disappeared from this world. Therefore, Lau Yong could only send a group of people to Dark Forest to find the whereabouts of those Loggers. However, the people he sent out were not able to return. It was as if Dark Forest was a man-eating Giant Beast.

The series of strange incidents made Lau Yong realize something bad very quickly. He felt that there must be something hidden in the Dark Forest. It was very likely that those humans who were sent to Dark Forest had met with misfortune. Lau Yong originally planned to send another elite force to investigate the Dark Forest, but after thinking about it, he felt that he shouldn't take the risk. Comparatively speaking, the orcs might attack humans. They didn't even have enough men to guard the city. If they sent their elite troops to Dark Forest at this time, then the orcs would suddenly attack the cities of Human Clan. The Human Clan would no longer have any defensive abilities.

To be on the safe side, Lau Yong felt that he could only bring his servant to Dark Forest to find out what was going on. Just like that, The next day, Lau Yong brought the servants to the Dark Forest. They were riding a horse by themselves, so they were quite fast. In just a day or two, they had arrived near Dark Forest. Along the way, they didn't encounter any orcs. They didn't see any signs of any orcs moving around, so the missing humans weren't attacked by the orcs.

Because Jiangnan was not used to riding horses, they stopped to rest when they arrived near Dark Forest. Actually, it was time to rest at this time. After all, it was already dusk. Soon, it would be dark. There was an unknown danger lurking in the Dark Forest, so they couldn't enter it when it was dark. After all, it would be very risky.

When Jiang Nan got off the horse, he felt that his legs were sore. It was even a little soft, so she couldn't even stand up. After all, she had been bumpy on the horse for seven or eight hours. And this was undoubtedly a very uncomfortable thing for a woman. However, Jiangnan was a very strong girl, and she didn't complain about it. Moreover, she tried her best not to show her discomfort in front of Lau Yong.

Lau Yong had already set up the tent. He said to Jiangnan with a smile, "I know you must be very tired, so you should go to the tent and rest for a while." As he said that, he used the shovel he carried with him to dig a medium-sized Kang on the ground. Then, he found some wood and put it in the pit. Then, he lit the wood with flint.

Looking at the bonfire that was filled with gas, Lau Yong revealed a smile. Then, he picked up the lamb he always carried and roasted it on top of the bonfire. The bonfire was not big, and it was just right. Soon, he smelled the fragrance of the meat that made people drool.

Jiangnan didn't go to the tent to rest. Instead, he sat next to Lau Yong beside the bonfire. She didn't say anything. She just watched Lau Yong roast the lamb. After an unknown amount of time, the lamb was finally done. Lau Yong tore off a piece of lamb and handed it to Jiang Nan, who was beside him, saying, "It smells good. Eat it and see if it tastes good."

Jiang Nan was a little hungry at the moment. After all, she had followed Lau Yong all the way from Chang'ann City to this place. It had taken her two days and one night. And during these two days and one night, they had only eaten two meals. Therefore, she couldn't help but feel hungry at this moment. At this time, Jiangnan couldn't care about whether it was good or not. He took the roasted lamb and stuffed it into his mouth. The lamb was a little hot. It was extremely difficult for Jiang Nan to eat it. He wanted to throw up but didn't want to. In the end, he swallowed it all.

Lau Yong couldn't help but laugh when he saw Jiang Nan like this. He said, "Eat slowly. Is there anyone who wants to fight with you? He tore off a piece of lamb and ate it. Although he was hungry a long time ago, he didn't have much appetite. So he ate very slowly. While he was eating, his gaze was fixed on the forest in the distance. It was the Dark Forest.

In this beautiful evening, the Dark Forest in the distance looked especially gloomy and lifeless. For some reason, no sound could be heard in the entire forest. There were no insects or birds. Not only that, there were no birds flying in the sky, as if there were no living creatures in the forest.

Looking at such a strange scene... Lau Yong frowned and said, "I feel like there are some dangerous things hidden in this forest. I feel like all the animals in this forest have been killed or driven away by those things."

Jiangnan had finished the whole piece of roasted lamb. His oily mouth looked very cute. She followed Lau Yong's gaze and looked towards the forest. However, she did not see anything different about the forest. After all, the forest was still made up of a whole forest. There was no end to it. After pausing for a moment, Jiangnan looked away. Then, he noticed the roast lamb. For her, the roast lamb was obviously more attractive than the mountain forest.
