"The ice and snow will lt, the seas will surge back, and all creatures in the Erald Dream Realm will be subrged."
Orion took the spider silk bag(pouch) Lolth sent over and spoke towards the void passage.
That's right, Orion was just fearmongering.
Just when Lolth wanted to continue trading intelligence with him, Orion began to prophesy a great disaster for the Erald Dream Realm.
"Giant King Orion, do you take
for a fool?"
Lolth's voice was calm, betraying no anger.
Orion put away the spider silk bag; inside was another bag of spider silk.
"Lolth, you are very clever. How could you possibly be a fool?"
Orion shook his head. For the sake of a bag of materials, his attitude towards Lolth softened considerably.
"Giant King, you might as well say our Erald Dream Realm is about to face a great flood or a massive tsunami. That would be more direct."
His lie exposed, Orion didn't feel awkward at all.
Instead, he continued to gaze at Lolth on the other side of the void passage, his eyes filled with even more anticipation.
A mont later, another spider silk bag was teleported over, and Orion imdiately broke into a smile.
"Giant King, I am sincere, but I also have the ability to discern lies."
After a brief silence, Orion continued his spiel.
"Perhaps it will be a tsunami, or maybe an earthquake, or it could be endless darkness and evil."
"You are too insignificant to resist it at all."
These words were now half-truth, half-falsehood.
However, they were still sowhat vague.
Dream Queen Lolth, after hearing this, fell silent.
Soon, the other end of the void passage was once again shrouded in mist, and supernatural energies surged frequently.
Evidently, Lolth had cut off the conversation with Orion.
"Endless darkness… impossible to resist…"
"He doesn't seem to be lying. He must know sothing."
"I heard that the distant arch lord was conscripted and hasn't appeared since."
"The arch lord's people have beco more subdued... Could it be...?"
To be able to advance to the legendary level, and with rare dream-based supernatural powers at that, Lolth possessed wisdom.
To exchange for even a tiny bit of potentially useful information, she continuously sent out large quantities of materials.
Perhaps, in the eyes of many, Lolth was just a big fool.
However, Lolth herself didn't think so.
At the very least, these materials had allowed her to confirm one thing: the Erald Dream Realm might truly be on the verge of a massive change.
"What should I do?"
"Where does my future lie?"
"..."
Shadowcrag Forest, unknown region.
Along the way, there were constant battles, and the small scorpions armies they brought had suffered considerable losses.
Fortunately, what these small scorpions were exchanged for was a troop of tireless skeleton warriors.
In the pitch-dark forest, a bonfire suddenly blazed up, illuminating a large, simple tent beside it.
The tent was made of leather, supported by three thick wooden poles, with animal hides draped over it, serving as a temporary resting place for everyone.
"I thought you'd died on so battlefield!"
Earthshaker raised his waterskin and took a large gulp.
He was talking about Arden, who was currently sitting to one side, huddled in his cloak, only the faint firelight barely illuminating his drawn face.
"These past few years, I've been wandering the southern territory, and I've learned a lot."
"I've been to Buffalofolk City. Is that your fiefdom?"
Arden explained briefly, not elaborating on his experiences.
After nurous battles, Earthshaker, Gronthar, Drakthul, Arden, and Selenis had developed so camaraderie and gotten to know each other a bit, especially the latter two.
"Not exactly, it's more like the fiefdom of all buffalofolk."
"But it doesn't make much difference; we buffalofolk already consider it our holand."
Speaking of Buffalofolk City, Earthshaker was very proud and felt a great sense of honor.
Currently, in the Stoneheart Horde, only a few tribes have their own cities.
"You don't need to worry, and there's no need to make yourself uncomfortable over it."
"Our lord isn't as petty as you think. Orion's magnanimity is vaster than the sky."
Everyone was sowhat aware of Arden's worries.
In fact, Earthshaker knew a bit about it; he had personally witnessed Arden's several visits to Blackstone City.
