Chapter 2887: Chapter 924:
Within the Ogre Territory, things like money don’t hold much value. Unless they need to use such things to interact with the outside world, under normal circumstances, all members of the Ogre Clan naturally have no interest in those things.
And because Ogres weren’t interested in the things that other races valued, even entering the Ogre Clan’s realm occasionally meant being hunted as food by those Ogres. Yet to make a ’fortune’, countless merchants continued to flock to the Ogre Territory daily. Eventually, with the help of those merchants, the straightforward-minded Ogres surprisingly managed to possess their own castle.
However, no matter how the Ogres’ situation was at the time, Zhou Tian’s progress in the action this time was quite smooth thanks to their existence.
Because the ’tools’ those Ogres used to intimidate were all composed of slaves, the corpses hanging on the City Wall were naturally mostly some of the easier-to-capture living beings.
Undoubtedly, although the Snowman Tribe can’t be considered the easiest to capture among all living beings, because the castle at the time wasn’t far from the Snow Mountain, in that position, the proportion of Snowman Tribe among the slaves eaten by Ogres was naturally quite high.
No wonder when Zhou Tian led a few Snowmen to that castle’s exterior, a Snowman couldn’t help but exclaim. After all, who wouldn’t, upon arriving at an outsider’s castle, see the City Wall lined with their own people’s corpses, and even see outsiders feasting on their flesh and blood? Surely, most living beings would find such a sight intolerable!
However, even though Zhou Tian wasn’t particularly concerned about the reaction of the Snowman he brought along, undoubtedly, making such a reaction outside the Ogre’s castle, coupled with his Snowman identity, inevitably brought some trouble after that exclamation.

"A slave has escaped!"
"Quick, seize them!"

There was no intention of giving Zhou Tian and them a chance to explain. Originally, a shout outside the castle wasn’t a big deal—members of small races might be fined a bit, and members of larger races might receive no acknowledgment from the Ogres at all. Yet, given the situation at that time, although they couldn’t identify which race Zhou Tian belonged to, the fact that they hadn’t seen a creature like Zhou Tian was enough to make those simple-minded Ogres regard him as an ordinary living being.
And then, seeing Zhou Tian leading a group of Snowmen behind him without regarding him as any significant threat, those Ogres naturally grew restless.
In the eyes of the Ogres, what do Snowmen count for?
Though the Snowman Tribe’s Fighting Qi Talent even surpasses that of the Ogres, the Snowman Tribe’s weaknesses are very obvious. Even though it’s difficult for Ogres, with their simple minds, to deal with the Snowman Tribe, as long as Snowmen don’t dare to leave Snow Mountain, Ogres who haven’t fought with Snowmen simply see them as moving lunches. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Thus, though they knew those Snowmen following Zhou Tian were likely his slaves, those Ogres didn’t care about that. Since they had caught the opportunity, those Ogres wanted to capture those few Snowmen. As for how Zhou Tian felt about it, that didn’t concern those Snowmen at all.
And even if Zhou Tian was displeased, so what?
At the time, in the eyes of those Ogres, that place was their Territory, and within their Territory, no one could stop them from doing anything. If Zhou Tian obediently allowed them to capture those Snowmen, it was fine, but if Zhou Tian dared to resist, those Ogres wouldn’t mind having an extra piece of meat at lunch.
But when those Ogres were making that series of reactions, they absolutely didn’t expect what kind of powerful existence they were facing. So, at the time, when those Ogres surrounded Zhou Tian and his party with full confidence, they had no idea that although their actions startled the Snowmen, to Zhou Tian, the actions of those Ogres were entirely meaningless.
No matter what, Zhou Tian’s strength was evident, and with his strength, how could he care about the threats from those Ogres? If those Ogres didn’t come to trouble him, Zhou Tian would be too lazy to bother with those simple-minded creatures. But if those Ogres dared to cause him trouble, Zhou Tian would not just watch as those Ogres ignored him.
So clearly, the actions of those Ogres at the time already brought them a huge crisis. If there were no accidents, when those Ogres attempted to make a move against Zhou Tian, it was already determined that those Ogres wouldn’t possibly end up well.
It’s just a pity that although Zhou Tian had an absolute advantage in strength at the time, from various perspectives, those Ogres inevitably wouldn’t end well if they sought trouble with him. Yet even so, those Ogres still couldn’t change their decision at the time.
After all, the strength gap between those Ogres and Zhou Tian was too great, so great that even with Zhou Tian standing in front of them, those Ogres couldn’t perceive how large the difference in strength between them was. Thus, thinking Zhou Tian posed no threat to them, how could that group of Ogres possibly give up what they saw as lunch about to fall into their hands?
