Lord Era: I, The Strongest Lord Of The Abyss!

#474 - Chapter 474 The Boundary between Good and Evil

"Charge!"

"Crush them!"

With Long戈尔's roar, tens of thousands of orc warriors suddenly stopped their river-crossing action, turned around, and rushed fiercely towards the opened portal.

But at this moment, Noel frowned and asked Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore), who was charging alongside him.

"Damn it, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore)."

"We need support for the warriors on the other side of the river!"

At this time, on the opposite side of the river, more than a thousand orcs who had crossed the river were engaged in battle with a large number of demons.

However, because of their small number, they were on the verge of being slaughtered.

If the time drags on a little longer, they could be completely submerged by the surging demon army at any time.

"Otherwise, they will die!"

Hearing this, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) turned his head and sneered at Noel.

"Save them? Are you serious? You idiot!"

"Haven't you realized by now that these guys were originally the smokescreen I threw out?"

Hearing this, Noel's pupils couldn't help but widen.

Because as Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) said, Noel didn't realize until this moment that the orcs who Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) ordered to cross the river first were really just bait.

After all....

None of the orcs who crossed the river first came from the Iron Rain Tribe!

In other words, from the beginning, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) was prepared to let them die on the other side of the river.

It's just that these orcs didn't know it.

"You dare to use our compatriots as bait?"

"You are a complete bastard, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore)!"

Noel roared.

"There is no orcish honor in what you do!"

"Honor?"

"Heh."

Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) jumped off his worg, slashed a plague demon with his sword, and then said to Noel amidst the plague demon's screams.

"Noel, ah, Noel, you really are a complete idiot!"

"You still want to save them?"

As the plague demon's head fell to the ground, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) was covered in blood.

At this moment, he was a true god of war.

"Don't you realize!"

"I am trying to save ourselves right now?"

Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) grabbed the plague demon's head and smashed it towards a giant demon not far away, roaring.

"If I don't use them as bait, then we will all die!"

"Noel,...."

At this time, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore)'s single eye revealed the most ferocious look Noel had ever seen.

Noel had never seen such a ferocious look, even in the predators.

But at this moment, Noel, who thought he was strong enough, suddenly realized that he had lost the courage to even raise his weapon in Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore)'s eyes.

"If you are so willing to save them, then go!"

"This time, I allow you to do so, and I will definitely not think you are disobeying my orders!"

"Do you know why?"

"Because in my heart, I wish there were more people going!"

"After all, the more people who go, the greater the probability that we can survive on this side of the river!"

"So, go, stupid Noel!"

Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) grabbed Noel by the collar and threw him to the ground.

"Go!"

"Why don't you go when you know you are going to die?!"

"You damn hypocrite!"

At this moment, Noel suddenly swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.

But even so, he still felt his lips dry and couldn't speak.

The reason for this was because he understood that he would never go there.

The so-called "saving", to put it bluntly, was just a momentary outburst under the condemnation of his so-called conscience.

He was just angry at the time, angry that Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) had abandoned his companions.

But, if he was really asked to go and die.....

"Dang!"

Just as Noel was still thinking wildly, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) suddenly turned his body and used the sword in his hand to slash fiercely at a bone spur demon that was trying to sneak attack him.

This demon, covered in pale bone spurs, was directly knocked to the ground by his sword.

"Hmph!"

After doing all this, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) glanced mockingly at Noel lying on the ground, and then pulled him up.

"Noel, I think you are very good, even a very good seed!"

"Do you know why I say that?"

"Because, before the great Beast Ancestor appointed me as the commander this time, I went to the vicinity of your tribe!"

Hearing this, Noel's eyes widened.

He seemed to realize something.

"That's right, my dear Noel!"

"In the beginning, I was actually the one who saved your daughter, because when your daughter received the divine revelation and prepared to escape to the dry well in your village...."

"While I was hunting other orcs, I also received a divine revelation from the Beast Ancestor, preparing to go to your village to save your daughter."

"Because in the Beast Ancestor's plan, she, who has extremely strong communication talent, and I, who have the intuition of a beast, together are the warriors the Beast Ancestor wants most!"

"But your appearance disrupted all of this."

"Because, the Beast Ancestor never expected that you, who should have died on the River Valley battlefield, would become a deserter and escape back to your village!"

"The Beast Ancestor never expected that you, who should have died, would explode with extremely strong potential in battle."

"Hehe!"

"Originally hiding aside to observe all of this, I only thought you were an insignificant deserter, but when I saw your battle, I understood one thing."

"That is, I finally discovered that you and I are the same kind of people!"

Speaking of the same kind of people, Noel suddenly exerted force and threw Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) to the ground.

However, Noel did not hurt Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore).

On the contrary, he raised the giant axe in his hand and slashed a fatal blow at the elite winding demon rushing towards him and Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) not far away.

As the winding demon's body was blown into pieces, Noel's body was also covered with scarlet and foul-smelling winding demon tissue fragments.

"Hahaha!"

"That's right, Noel, we are the same kind of people!"

Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) stood up and looked at Noel, who was also covered in blood, and said.

"Because you and I are both selfish, both the kind of people who would be deserters and would live at all costs."

"The only difference between you and me is that you will live for your daughter, and I just want to live!"

"So...."

"Noel, in the days to come, you must understand one thing."

"That is, everything I have done, including letting those orcs become bait, is actually just a necessary evil for you and me to survive!"

Hearing Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) say this, Noel shook his head.

"No!"

"You and I are definitely not the same kind of people!"

"Because I am different from you, I am timid, cowardly, afraid of death, and have been a deserter....."

Roar!

Noel stimulated his fighting spirit and controlled a plague demon, throwing it towards another bone spur demon not far away.

In an instant, under the devastation of Noel's fighting spirit, these two high-level demons directly turned into puddles of blood, exploding on the battlefield.

"But I am not a so-called evil person!"

"Because in my heart, there is still a side of the orc civilization called good."

"Although I admit that I am very hypocritical, I do have a part of goodness."

"But you are completely different, your existence is the embodiment of the most despicable side of the orcs, the collection of all orcish evils!"

"So, I am not your kind!"

"Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore), go to hell!"

"I would rather die in battle than be like you, making excuses for your evil!"

After speaking, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) was surprised to find that Noel, whom he regarded as "the same kind of person", had left him behind and rushed straight to the distance.

Rushing to the other side of the river, to join the group of people who were bound to die.

On the other side of the river, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) squinted his single eye, watching Noel raise his axe and slash fiercely at the endless demons.

He was trying to save every one of his compatriots.

Although his efforts were destined to be futile, and even, he would most likely die there.

But, he was really trying....

"Hiss...."

Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) took a deep breath, looked at the sword in his hand, and looked at the Beast Ancestor symbol engraved on his sword.

"The so-called...."

"Good and evil?"

"This is really a boring topic!"

"In war, there is no such thing as good and evil."

"Because the so-called war, there are only losers, and losers who don't lose so badly!"

After speaking, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) led the orcs around him and once again pounced on the demons who were feasting on the corpses of dead orcs, to win a glimmer of hope for themselves!

————————————————

After several minutes of fighting, Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore)'s plan succeeded.

Because Wu Wei's troops were dispersed, Wu Wei's so-called half of the demon elites had suffered heavy casualties.

So Wu Wei, who was distressed about the money, directly ordered this group of demon elites to return to the endless abyss through the abyss portal.

And Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) and his men, after abandoning one-tenth of their corpses, won this battle.

But....

"Huff..."

"Huff.."

On the opposite side of the river, it was a true human tragedy!

Because at this moment, the number of orcs who could still stand on the opposite side of the river was less than ten.

And the reason why these last ten orcs were able to survive was entirely because Wu Wei had also evacuated this group of demon warriors when he evacuated the demon army from the other side of the river.

However, all of this was no longer important.

Because the last surviving less than ten orc warriors knelt down, kneeling in front of Noel.

They...

Were swearing allegiance to Noel.

Were swearing allegiance to this orcish son of god who saved them in despair.

And in a sea of scarlet, Noel, covered in wounds, turned his head and made eye contact with Long戈尔(Long戈尔: Long Gore) on this side of the river.

The boundary between good and evil was as clear as the river between the two...

That finger of Noel's daughter may have already explained one thing.

That is, the Beast Ancestor may have chosen more than one leader.
