Chapter 167: The Surrender of the Enemy

"What a complete idiot!"

"Highmaul has surrendered."

Krago woke up from his nightmare. He had forgotten a lot about what happened that day, but he was deeply impressed by Margok's words.

What they can still remember is that the ogre leader-Margok took them to negotiate. The orcs' demands were unreasonable, and the councilors were forcing the head of state to let him accept the conditions. Then he chose to assassinate Grommash but was pushed away by the head of state, and his head hit the ground hard. The orcs dragged him to this dungeon... and then everything became a blur.

Vaguely, Krago could still remember some horrific images and sounds. The orcs put shackles and shackles on him with malicious intentions.

then--

Then, Crago realized that he was still in this prison.

This is a dark dungeon beneath Grommashr. Few people know that it exists, and few know that Nergo built it.

In Nelgo's expectation, some criminals who are inconvenient for outsiders to know the situation will be detained here, just like the prison in Dalaran.

There is currently only one prisoner here, that is Crago.

Crago glanced around the cell. He had seen this cell countless times and had even become accustomed to it as his new home in the future.

But what about Highmaul? Are those ogres forced to leave their homeland and find a "new home" like him?

Ah.

He sighed, lamenting that he still didn't know what his current situation was, but he was thinking about Highmaul and the Head of State. He shook his head and looked at the chains wrapped around his body.

The shackles above contained the arcane magic of Highmaul, making it impossible for him to escape the shackles even if he was willing to become someone like Kargath.

But what if he could be imprisoned? He would not betray the Lord of Sorcery, nor betray the interests of Highmaul.

If Nelgo wanted to torture him to make him succumb to him and finally obey the orders of the orcs, he would undoubtedly have made a wrong calculation.

His bones are much harder.

But what surprised him was that after being imprisoned for so long, Nergo never appeared once. Not only him, he seemed to be forgotten. He had not seen any living person since entering the dungeon.

Suddenly, there were footsteps in the dungeon passage, and he couldn't help but become alert. Someone unlocked the cell door and he looked up. The door opened.

"Kragor, the Spellbreaker of Highmaul, an ogre who made his name in the arena and on the battlefield."

A figure who was as memorable to him as the head of state entered the prison.

This man had scars on his face and was covered in pitch black armor. There were bright red patterns on the armor on his chest. There was a mask on his face, making it impossible to see his face. Only when his eyes fell on Crago, his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp.

"He is still conscious and has not collapsed." He said respectfully to the people behind him.

A gust of wind blew, "Then I came at the right time."

"Krago, come, look at me."

The soldier saluted, stepped aside, and revealed his face.

Crago looked at him and narrowed his eyes slightly. He recognized the person, which made him take a breath.

Compared with last time, he was stronger and no longer carried the heavy sword.

"What? Don't you recognize me?" Nergo said with a smile, "I thought all ogres would always remember me."

"Go down." He didn't care at all about Krago's eyes when he looked at him. There was no hatred, no fear, it was very plain, as plain as looking at a stranger.

"But he is dangerous." The soldier replied, looking at Crago with no trace of disgust in his eyes. "He is a sinner who dares to assassinate even the war chief."

"What's the use of staying here if I'm in danger?" Nergo repeated again, "Go down, and don't reveal to others that I've been here, or even that I exist here."

The soldier left, and Nergo took a few steps forward.

"Some people say they want to kill you, but I saved your life from the chieftain. Some people say you are a loyal subject of Highmaul and cannot be loyal to the Horde, but I want to see whether your loyalty is to Mal'gok or to Mal'gok. Highmaul."

Nergo said without hesitation: "What do you think?"

Krago quickly replied: "The Führer himself represents Highmaul."

This is also considered high emotional intelligence.

Low EQ: I am willing to surrender.

High emotional intelligence: I am loyal to the Führer, what? The head of state belongs to the tribe...

"Great." Nergo burst into laughter. "The head of state himself has become a member of the tribe. Most of the ogres have chosen to serve the tribe. So should you also follow the tribe?"

"Oh, by the way, I came here today also with hints from Margok."

This is not a lie. Nergo will not lie to others under normal circumstances. Margok did mention the matter about Krago to him.

Krago's teeth chattered. He wanted to scold Nergo angrily, but when he thought that his people had become members of the tribe and were loyal to the orc chief, what else could he insist on?

I am about to fight to the death, so why do you surrender first?

"Okay, just nod your head if you want." Nergo didn't give him much time to recall. Although he respected loyal ministers like Krago, there were so many people like him in the Warcraft universe, but they were just a few who were heinous. And little.

Even Garrosh, who was pulled out to whip corpses and scolded by the Alliance on a daily basis, had a belief that even the leaders of the Shadow Realm were amazed by.

Krago was free. He was freed from the shackles and walked out of the cage. All this was because of his gentle nod.

Freedom was coming, but Krago's thoughts were complicated.

"Don't think too much." Nergo still tried to make him relax and change his mindset. "The Führer is still the Führer, and Highmaul is still Highmaul. What are you worried about?"

It's just that there is a new boss.

"Let's go, Krago, let's go and see what progress has been made in the laboratory." Nergo emphasized the word laboratory, because he didn't come to find Krago to reminisce today.

The orcs already have the knowledge of the spellbreakers of Highmaul, but the tribe has not trained this type of soldiers at all. Why?

Because what the tribe lacks now is the evil breakers, that is, the spellbreakers who are immune to fel magic, and Nergo didn't have any items about the fel magic of warlocks before, so he couldn't train them at all.

This is also the reason why he has not ordered the army to attack Gul'dan. He doesn't want the orcs to die from unknown aoe.

But he found some warlock spellcasting materials in the Bladewind Clan.

Now that he had it, Krago became the first evil breaker he chose.
