Chapter 2209 Orc Curse Chapter 71
Lottie Sandrak, the Beast King, originally planned to challenge the Great Beast God when the Great Beast God Priest, in order to maintain the same number of Beast Kings, demanded power from the Great Beast God to create the Beast Kings of the Sandrak Clan, causing the Great Beast God to weaken to the point that he could not recover for a while.

She considered the threat posed by the Sandrak Clan with 12 Beastmasters, so this would be a blitzkrieg: their Gianthoof Tribe would hold off the Sandrak Clan's Beastmasters, while Mighty Brick and his group would complete the challenge to behead the Great Beast God.

Without the Great Beast God, their two main forces—the Great Beast God priests—would lose the Great Beast God's blessing, lose their power, and also lose the opportunity to cooperate tacitly with the Sandrak clan.

With the loss of the High Priest, internal problems will likely surface first within the Sandrak clan. The Sandrak clan emphasizes the nobility of its bloodline, naturally leading to even more severe discrimination against other orc clans within its ranks.

While other clans are uniformly inferior, within the Sandrak clan there is a hierarchy of discrimination. The highest level is undoubtedly the orcs who have existed since the beginning of the Sandrak clan. Below them are the five surnames who became members of the Sandrak clan through their strength, or orcs of other surnames. The further back in time, the lower the rank.

If those who are discriminated against were powerless, it would simply be a matter of the survival of the fittest as always. However, since only the strong can become members of the Sandrak clan, there are no weaklings in the Sandrak clan.

Despite being equally powerful, or even more powerful, they were discriminated against because of their bloodline. This made the bloodline class struggle within the Sandrak clan extremely cruel. If it weren't for the Great Beast God Priest presiding over fair duels in the name of the Great Beast God to maintain a semblance of order, the Sandrak clan would have long since fallen apart.

Lord Lottie Sandrak pondered whether the Sandrak clan would truly descend into internal strife if the Great Beast God were defeated and its priests lost their power, given the presence of external enemies.

The conclusion of the reflection is "yes," not because they are stupid, but because they are arrogant and believe in bloodlines above all else. This is a distorted perception brought about by the vicious cycle of generations.

The order that was born around the Great Beast God will collapse with the death of the Great Beast God, and the first thing the Sandrak clan will do is to re-establish the internal order.

But Lottie Sandrak, the Beastmaster, abandoned the plan, not only because there were too many uncertainties involved, but also because she couldn't overcome her inner struggles.

Now that they have the support of most of the Beast Kings and the vast majority of the Beastmen, they are ready to challenge the Great Beast God.

Walk up to the Great Beast God with dignity and tell him that we want to make life better, so we want to defeat him and take his place.

Rather than blindly accepting the harsh criticism of your past self and suffering the self-deception of inner torment, it's better to be someone who, even when faced with enormous challenges, will not choose to compromise or back down.

A person whose past self can be proud of.

"So, you're planning to challenge the Great Beast God directly?" Mighty Flying Brick raised an eyebrow, his eyes gleaming with a fighting spirit.

He enjoys the tranquility of farming, but there's no denying that he's itching to get back to it.

It wasn't because he was belligerent, but because the gifts from the Gianthoof Tribe were simply too many. The Minotaur King was just the beginning. The existence of orcs was like a huge treasure chest. They had only cleaned the rust off the surface of the chest, and the chest began to eagerly spew out piles of treasures to overwhelm them.

“You’re so young and impetuous! Haven’t you considered the consequences of failure at all?” Beast Queen Lottie Sandrak shook her head helplessly, but a smile gradually crept onto her lips.

After spending time with young people, even the oldest person can regain their vitality as long as they can still move around.

"Of course I've considered it."

To Beast King Lottie Sandrak's surprise, the powerful brick-throwing technique provided a solution. He was serious; this wasn't a place where you could start over after losing, so even with his immense confidence, he still considered the "what if" scenario.

“If the rebellion fails, we will inevitably be surrounded and annihilated by the Sandrak clan. Then, unfortunately, we will have to begin a war of self-defense. But we don’t need a direct confrontation; we will focus on harassment and maneuvering.” Dali Feizhuan rolled a large map onto the table and then planned the route of action on it, providing a very detailed explanation.

He was very fortunate to be a semi-military enthusiast and to have some knowledge of some well-known historical tactics.

Lottie Sandrak, the Beast Queen, initially took it as just a child showing off, but as she listened, she became serious and realized it was feasible.

The guerrilla tactic of throwing bricks with great force greatly utilized the endurance and muscle advantage of the herbivorous orcs, keeping the powerful carnivorous orcs constantly on the run.

Most importantly, their ranks include clans who are the fastest messengers and most secretive assassins in the orcish region, capable of easily monitoring, investigating, and transmitting intelligence.

In addition, there are other ways to leverage the strengths of orcs, such as building defensive trenches.

After explaining the tactics, Dali Feizhuan revealed the most crucial element.

"The orcs yearn for peace, for enough to eat, for a peaceful and tranquil life, but the Sandrak clan cannot provide that. They cannot truly lead the orcs to annihilate us."

"In the end, the number of orcs on our side will only increase, while the Sandrak clan will be in the minority."

"The strong will not be the final victors; those who have the support of the masses will stand until the end."

“I understand.” Beast King Lottie Sandrak stood up, left the chieftain’s hut, and walked toward the Beast King who was curiously observing the humans who were grafting and cultivating crops.

She truthfully told the Beast Kings about her original plan and her intention to abandon it.

Surprisingly, the Beastmasters did not blame them or abandon the alliance, perhaps they would before visiting the Gianthoof Tribe, but not now.

They saw the potential for success in the changes within the Giant Hoof tribe, a result far more compelling than simply weakening or defeating the Great Beast God. This made it far more worthwhile for them to side with the Giant Hoof tribe.

This isn't a promise of a future where everyone can eat their fill; it's about being able to eat your fill right now. They simply chose the right path for the sake of the orcs who trusted them.

It's hard to say whether we should be glad or not. The Beast Kings don't like the seemingly safe plan of Beast King Lottie Sandrak. They can accept the natural decline of the Great Beast God, and that kind of challenge is about the replacement of the old with the new. But Beast King Lottie Sandrak's plan is to scheme against the Great Beast God.

Although they are weak, they are not ashamed of these things.

Those who rise to power through despicable means and scheming schemes will never possess a broad mind; they will only forever be wary of others using the same methods against them.

What difference would that result make from the Sandrak clan becoming the Great Beast God?
