So...
"Looking for death!"
Although he didn’t voice his thoughts, Zhou Tian was no fool. After hearing the exchange between those Ogres, he clearly understood what those Ogres had in mind at the time. In Zhou Tian’s eyes, their response was absolutely intolerable. Thus, under circumstances where he held a complete advantage in strength, Zhou Tian would certainly not allow those Ogres to act recklessly.
As a result, in that situation, unaware that their behavior had already angered the Ogres whom they should never provoke, the Ogres were still excited about discovering several Snowmen. But before they could capture those Snowmen, a loud bang was heard, and then, without understanding the situation, those Ogres were directly killed by Zhou Tian outside their castle.
It could be said that Zhou Tian’s actions at that time in the Ogre Territory were extremely serious.
If it were in the territory of other races, killing an Ogre would be just killing an Ogre, as long as Zhou Tian demonstrated great strength, probably no one would want to seek vengeance with Zhou Tian, such a powerful figure, over a few Ogres. Furthermore, given the Ogres’ nature, few races would like them.
However, regardless of how outsiders view those Ogres, within their own territory, Ogres don’t even care about the lives of their own clanmates, so they obviously wouldn’t care about a few outsiders.
Even on normal days, for the sake of a piece of meat, those Ogres would attack foreign living beings without any reason. Now Zhou Tian dared to kill their clanmates in their own territory; regardless of how powerful Zhou Tian showed himself, those Ogres felt he must be taken down.
Thus, shortly after Zhou Tian directly killed those Ogres who dared to attack him, the Ogres within that castle immediately reacted because of Zhou Tian’s actions. It didn’t matter why Zhou Tian attacked those Ogres; in the eyes of those Ogres, Zhou Tian dared to make a move against them, meaning war was declared against their clan. And since Zhou Tian dared to do such a thing, they must catch and eat him.
But...
At that time, the Ogres who attacked Zhou Tian had no meaningful actions; Zhou Tian waved his hand and easily killed them. Similarly, even when facing the siege of those Ogres’ army, he still did not take their actions seriously.
"Beasts should behave like beasts, don’t be presumptuous in front of me!" Zhou Tian, dissatisfied with the Ogres’ behavior, would not let them charge in front of him. As the enemy gathered a large army preparing to attack Zhou Tian, facing the Ogres’ attacks, Zhou Tian grumbled discontentedly and directly launched an attack on them at that time.
In other worlds, the status of the Ogres has never been high, not only because of their simple-mindedness but mainly because apart from Wizards who can use special powers, no Ogre can practice Magic.
Undoubtedly, although Magic is far inferior to Fighting Qi in close combat ability, purely in terms of Destructive power, Magic far exceeds Fighting Qi. Moreover, like those big-bodied Ogres, with their mediocre magic defense capability, even facing a not-so-strong Mage, it is still a capability to completely crush them.
Obviously, Zhou Tian was far more powerful than the average Mage, especially under Zhou Tian’s attack at that time, those Ogres had no ability to resist at all. It can be said that any Ogre under Zhou Tian’s magic attack ultimately met a dead end.
There is no doubt that in a world without any Magic, the Destructive power displayed by Zhou Tian’s Magic made not only the Snowmen fearful but even dared those fearless Ogres felt somewhat afraid at the time. They were genuinely afraid that Zhou Tian would continue to initiate such attacks. If Zhou Tian continued with such attacks, just with less than a hundred assaults, their castle and all the living beings inside it would be dead by his hand.
The Ogres do not care about outsiders’ lives; they don’t even care about their clanmates’ lives or even their own lives. But although they don’t put the lives of all living beings in their hearts, they are worried that Zhou Tian’s actions will affect their future Food sources. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
The only Weakness of those fearless Ogres is their fear of not having meat to eat. And in their meat-filled brains, knowing that Zhou Tian damaged their castle and they would lose a source of Food, as for their own lives, they probably don’t care as much.
Facing such Opponents like the Ogres, although due to their customs they are hard to like, sometimes it still leaves people feeling a bit exasperated yet amused.
But no matter how much those Ogres worried about Zhou Tian destroying their castle, it was of no significance, because Zhou Tian’s strength was undeniable. Unless Zhou Tian truly doesn’t have the thought, otherwise as long as Zhou Tian wanted, theoretically, destroying that Ogre castle at the time should be very easy.
However, though Zhou Tian indeed possessed the Ability to destroy that Ogre castle at the time, clearly, Zhou Tian did not intend to do so.
Because at that time, Zhou Tian simply did not have the reason to do so!
Indeed, at the time, Zhou Tian couldn’t stand the Ogres’ behavior, and he was also intent on Helping the Snowman Tribe rise, but everything was built on the premise that the Snowmen had Utilitarian Value for Zhou Tian. If those Snowmen didn’t have Utilitarian Value, Zhou Tian would not care about their life or death.
Similarly, even though Zhou Tian found the Ogres displeasing, if killing those Ogres didn’t yield corresponding Gains, even if he found the other side extremely displeasing, wanting Zhou Tian to directly Take Action against them was still impossible.
At least at that time, Zhou Tian had no intention of dealing with the Ogres. Because in Zhou Tian’s view, his Energy was limited, and he had many things that required the use of his internal Energy. And before his plans are achieved, successfully annexing this world, Zhou Tian had no extra Energy to waste.
Moreover, if everything developed as Zhou Tian envisioned, soon the Snowmen would have considerable Strength. It’s believed that once the Snowmen possess some Strength, they would naturally start seeking trouble with the Ogres. Thus, Zhou Tian undoubtedly wouldn’t need to waste Energy on such matters.
As for if the Snowmen didn’t act as Zhou Tian envisioned, then Zhou Tian’s non-interference wouldn’t be blamed. In any case, if the Snowmen refuse to follow Zhou Tian’s plan, then they lose their Value in recruitment. If it really comes to that, then regardless of how miserable the Snowmen are and how much they hate the Ogres, it would be meaningless to Zhou Tian.
Following that, Zhou Tian took those Snowmen around the Ogres’ other territories or other living beings’ territories. Although during this process, Zhou Tian seemingly said nothing, under the circumstances, even if Zhou Tian said nothing, his purpose was basically achieved.
