Xiao Chen stayed hidden while watching the training of the Yurakks, Rakshas and the trolls. He was really satisfied with their attitude while suffering under the hands of the huge orc. The creation of the Second Verakhs was delayed since he decided to prioritize the creation of the Yohan Second Horde first before creating another special unit to attach to it.

All his eyes were set first at the south and if all goes well, he'll turn his attention to the north. While he was silently watching his warriors train, two pairs of eyes were also watching him silently.

After three days, Xiao Chen was idling around his tent and just relaxing as he really needed some breather after pulling consecutive all nighters again. He was humming to himself while thinking of what else can he introduce into this world to quicken the development of his kingdom.

Staring at the panels of his ever silent system of his, he was confused on why won't it issue him new missions to take in order for points to come rolling in once again. Staring at his points that increased in the last few weeks, he surmised that the Yohan First Horde, Ikarush, is entangled with some engagements in the south.

From the foot of the Lag'ranna Mountains in the south of the Orcish lands, almost all the way to the east before the sea, below the foot of the Teka'rr Mountains till the borders of the Burning Sands. He needed to bring it all under his control before venturing to the far south.

"Why won't just they just stay in the north..." he muttered to himself. Going out of his tent, he headed towards where his steed was at and went out the city, but before he could go through the gates. Galum'nor and the trolls along with the new Rakshas and Yurakks and, carrying with them, their supplies were already waiting for him there by the gates. They followed behind him, creating a long line of warriors and it seemed like that they were ready days ago after he told Galum'nor to prepare them for a little exploration.

"Where are you headed to, chief?" Draegh'ana muttered as she rode his Great Bear and keeping it at the same pace as the chieftain's steed. "To visit the different tribes or clans near us. I want to bring them under our fold and establish pacts with them." Xiao Chen answered while still keeping his gaze straight ahead.

"And if they don't agree and use violence?" Adhalia questioned as he climbed up the back of Draegh'ana's summon and joined her on riding it. The female orc raised an eyebrow at the actions of the human but didn't say any word and just ignored her.

"I don't want to shed unnecessary blood. If peaceful means is useless, then I will let these guys do the talking." Xiao Chen answered as he pointed his right thumb at the long line of warriors behind them being led by Galum'nor.

Adhalia looked behind her and saw the huge orc grin at her and even the trolls and orcs also grinned at her, showing that they were also anticipating battles ahead. Glancing to the left, she saw the huge female orc with her weapon and the little Grogus just behind her, following her like a loyal servant.

"Uh... What's up with that little goblin always following her around?" Adhalia turned to Draegh'ana as she pointed at Aro'shanna. She was really puzzled on why Grogus kept on following her around like a pet.

"Well, after the poor Grogus learned to cook some new food recipes from the chieftain,she decided to keep the little goblin around. The food that Grogus cooks is really good, which tasted somewhat similar to what the chieftain makes when he decides to. All of Aro'shanna's meals are handled by Grogus and I think he has been tamed by her long ago after the many beatings that he suffered under her hands. When you have some time, we can join her and have some taste of Grogus' cooking since it would be hard to have a taste of the chieftain's cooking with all the things that he had to deal with. We'll just settle for what tastes second best." Draegh'ana lengthily explained.

"Hmmm... Now I am curious about how well the food that the chieftain makes." Adhalia muttered as he stared at Xiao Chen, who seemed to be lost in his own thoughts like the many times before.

A few days of march, Xiao Chen led his group towards the foot of the Teka'rr Mountains before swinging east as to throughly scour the lands of all that lived in it. It didn't take long for them to meet the first group of neighbors that they have. It was a group of goblins that were eyeing them while staying hidden behind the tall grasses and behind huge rocks.

Xiao Chen raised his hand and ordered for the march to halt as they wait for the response of those who are hiding around them. "How many do you think there are?" Adhalia asked Draegh'ana.

"High hundreds or into a thousand." Xiao Chen was the one who answered as he observed the surroundings to find where the goblins were hiding at. It was his modest estimate of their possible foes, judging by their movements. There might be even more that are hidden further away that he didn't notice, but he had a band of trained warriors with him and a walking artillery just beside him.

Silence. It was very silent that Xiao Chen was confused. His actions were already telling the hidden goblins that they know they were there. "Javelin..." Xiao Chen glanced behind him and stretched out his right arm. A troll was quick to approach him and handed one of his javelins to their chieftain.

Xiao Chen raised his right arm above his shoulders and getting the feel of the weight of the weapon. He nodded his head, pulled his right arm back and arched his back a little and with a grunt he hurled the javelin forward.

The javelin landed a few feet in front of the closest goblin, who was hiding behind the tall grasses.. His message was obvious 'I know you are there, come out now.'
