The Holy Wolf treasure was a secret, and it was best to not let the other orcs see it, so Abel decided to put an extra leather cape on top of it. He also found a decent long spear and short blade from his spoils of war. He then took out his rune bow Riphook and hanged 2 arrows by his waist.
All of a sudden, he had become a perfect wolf rider. All he needed was a mount wolf.
With a flick, he let the mount wolf king out of his monster portal ring. It was the worst mount he could find at the time.
He yelled at Johnson who was resting while hogging a pile of gems by his side “Johnson, go back to the ring!”
As long as Johnson could sleep while hugging some rocks, it would be able to grow, and the effect of gems were even better. It scooped up all the gems back in his portal bag and walked inside the black hole in front of Abel.
Flying Flame looked at Abel but soon returned to his pile of red gems. It knew its owner did not need him to attack now.
On the other hand, White Snow was very enthusiastic. It flew out from its nest and landed next to Abel, asking if it needed to come along.
“White Snow, only if you can shrink into the size of a normal eagle. You’re too big right now. You’ll attract too much attention!” Said Abel with a laugh.
White Snow tilted its head and thought for a bit. Its body began to shrink, and its scent also decreased as its body got smaller.
Originally, it was just a little bit smaller than Flying Flame, but in a blink of an eye it had turned into a normal white eagle, with barely any scent. If Abel didn’t use its world stone ability, it couldn’t even tell how powerful it was.
“Not bad, White Snow!” Abel smiled when White Snow landed on his shoulder.
With a mount wolf king, a full body armour, a decent spear, as well as an eagle on his shoulder, Abel looked like a typical noble wolf.
“03, lower!” Said Abel as he jumped on the mount wolf king.
Battle fort no.3 quickly began to descend towards the ground, allowing Abel to jump down and head towards the 3 wolf rider captains.
He knew the wolves had great respect for the powerful, so he deliberately turned a bit of the colourless energy in his druid soul into death qi and unleashed it.
Also, with a Holy object such as the transformation necklace, he no longer smelled human.
“What are you doing?” Abel yelled seriously as he arrived in front of those 3 fighting wolf rider captains.
The 3 wolf rider captains sensed the death qi and quickly stopped their weapons and put it back on their saddle.
“Sir, we were ordered to capture an escaped soldier!” The wolf rider captain named Carlo replied in a loud voice.
“Sir I am not an escaped soldier. I just want to join the orc god ceremony!” By that point the wolf rider captain named Beecher had grown pale. He hadn’t expected a head wolf rider captain to appear out of nowhere. If this head wolf rider captain wanted to capture him or get involved, he would never be able to go to the orc god ceremony.
“The orc god ceremony, huh? I want to go have a look as well. You can be my follower then!” Said Abel pointing at Beecher.
“Sir, our master had ordered us to bring him back!” Carlo quickly added.
“He’s one of my men now. Do you have a problem with that?” Abel unleashed even more death qi to imitate the vigour of a head wolf rider captain.
Wolf rider captain Beecher immediately felt his heart lift. He could see that Abel was a noble from his gear. Although he didn’t know which family, he knew it was definitely an extremely powerful one from the full body leather armour, snow eagle, or a mount wolf king. These were all things a normal wolf rider captain could not get.
The leather armour on Abel was his spoil of war. He had gotten it from the orc battlefield. Making these things was extremely complicated, and this one, in particular, was made entirely out of iron rhino skin.
The skin of an iron rhino was as strong as iron. And only the skin on its stomach could be turned into armour. To make the armor would take at least 3 iron rhinos.
They were extremely precious, too, since they were almost extinct in the orc empire. Therefore, an armor like this would definitely cost a fortune.
You would rarely see any worgens in metal armour. Not only were they rare, they were also hard to maintain. Most importantly wolf riders needed speed, and metal armour could limit their range of motion.
Therefore, leather armours had become the perfect armour for wolf riders.
Snow eagles were also very hard to obtain since you needed to domesticate them ever since birth. Even a young eagle was extremely expensive, let alone these snow eagles with snowy white feathers.
A mount wolf king needed no explanation. Only one could be born with every hundred thousand mount wolves. Every wolf rider would go crazy for one.
“Sir, it’s my honour to be your follower!” Wolf rider captain Beecher jumped down from his mount wolf with his knee down and said whole heartedly.
A prideful wolf rider captain like Beecher would not normally surrender this easily, but this situation was different. He could only risk getting captured or staying with Abel. This might even increase his probability to becoming a head wolf rider captain.
He probably originally had a ten percent success rate to go, but now the table had turned with this head wolf rider captain. As far as he knew, only a few elite with the power of a head wolf rider captain who would join.
After being struck by Abel’s vigour and seeing how submissive Beecher had become, wolf rider captain Carlo exchanged gaze with the other wolf rider captain and shook his head. He then did a bow and turned around on his mount wolf.
“Get up, what’s your name?” Abel lowered his voice.
Seeing the 2 wolf rider captains who came to capture him had left, Beecher let out a breath of relief and said as he stood up, “Sir, my name is Beecher!”
Abel then signalled him to get back on his mount wolf and said “Beecher, lets keep going as we talk!”
“Yes, Sir!” Wolf rider captain Beecher jumped back on his mount wolf. He also knew the best thing to do was to leave as soon as possible. Although he had become the man of this head wolf rider captain, he did not know what action his leader in the military would take. Maybe they would send even more men after him.
“Beecher, I don’t care who you were. You are now following me. No one will give us trouble!” Abel said helplessly as he saw the worried look on Beecher’s face.
Of course, Abel was not bragging. If any head wolf rider captain appeared, he was more than capable of killing them.
“Thank you, Sir!” Said wolf rider captain Beecher in excitement. He had almost forgotten what had just happened, he didn’t even know what is the name of this head wolf rider captain.
Or maybe Abel just had not introduced himself, so he did not want to bother him.
“Tell me about the orc god ceremony!” Said Abel pretending he was getting bored.
Wolf rider captain Beecher hesitantly gazed at Abel and explained, “The orc god ceremony will take place once every 10 years in Nam Mountain. In the past only head wolf rider captain level orcs could join, but this time is different. Since all the head wolf rider captains were at war, it gives wolf rider captains like myself a rare chance.”
“War? How come I never heard about it?” Said Abel pretended to sound confused.
“Really? All the orcs in the empire had been recruited. We are about to unleash an ultimate war with the human.” A suspicious look emerged on wolf rider captain Beecher’s face. If Abel did not look totally identical to a worgen, he would think he was a spy of the humans.
