In the Orc War, it can be said that neither the Orcs themselves nor the Zandalari trolls had a winner.
The orcs failed to successfully capture Zuldazar and gain everything they wanted, but instead suffered heavy losses.
The Zandalari Empire, which was already in decline, had not fought a war for ten thousand years, but as soon as the war started, it encountered a war race like the orcs.
They were beaten in the early stage, and although they started to fight back later, they also suffered heavy losses.
This is a war with no real winner.
Tonatiu gained great prestige in the war, and an army that could begin to be called a powerful force in Azeroth.
Just looking at these superficial benefits, if he is compared with another being, he will be easily outclassed by the other person.
This being is Bwonsamdi, the god of death for the trolls.
In the Orc war, the Troll army suffered heavy casualties, with hundreds of thousands of dead. The same was true for the Orc army. If the death rate of the Blood Trolls was added, the total number of soldiers killed by the three races exceeded half a million.
As the God of Death, whose job is to extradite souls to the other side, these huge numbers of souls are like a big pie falling from the sky to Bwonsamdi.
In addition, he had previously reached a contract with Tonatiu, and he served Tonatiu for the trolls, so the souls of the enemies killed by the trolls would also be captured by him.
It can be said that almost all the souls who died in this war became Bwonsamdi's trophies.
In this war, not counting Ai-chan's favor, which is becoming increasingly clear. Tonatiu's gains in the war are not half as good as Bwonsamdi's.
Looking at the triumphant troll Death dancing in the sky, Tonatiu activated the system's ability:
This probably still hasn't digested that many souls. If he digests all those souls, he should become stronger.
In the past, Bwonsamdi was at most similar to Lazan, and because of the power of the Holy Light's ability to restrain death, he was restrained by Lazan in real time.
Raizan is not as good as before, and now Bwonsamdi can ignore Raizan.
Looking at the unknown flowers falling all over the sky, Tonatiu stretched out his hand to catch one of them. He looked at it and saw that it was the most common purple flower in the Dassaro area, an ordinary plant.
The God King held the petals to his nose and smelled it, smelling a faint fragrance.
He took another look at the rejoicing troll Death in the sky, and with his hand holding the purple petals, he crushed the beautiful purple petals, turned them into a piece of pollen juice, and threw them on the ground.
The God King walked forward silently.
Behind him were countless troll troops who were taciturn, had excited expressions on their faces, were in ragged clothes, but had high morale.
No matter how many troops the Zandalari trolls had before the war, after the war, they added the expeditionary force brought by Tonatiu and the army composed of Tonatiu's followers.
At this time, the Zandalari Empire only had about 130,000 troops, excluding the navy and the city defense force that functioned as urban management.
Real gold is refined by fire, and gold is mined in big waves.
The Zandalari Trolls lost 2/3 of their army, and in exchange they gained an army that was even more powerful than in its previous state of complete victory.
This is a good thing for Zandalari.
This is also a good thing for Tonatiu.
This is not a good thing for the original vested interests.
Even if they are Loa believers, the troll army is still an army. No matter which world or race the army is in, they are born with the heart to blindly follow the generals who can lead them to victory.
Not counting the nearly 70,000 elites that Tonatiu now almost completely controls, nor his allies.
Add Zul's words.
He relied on this post-war influence, and Zandalari no longer had any trolls that could challenge his status.
The welcoming trolls along the street cheered for their army's triumphant return.
Amidst the thundering cheers, the cheerful Bwonsamdi finished his words.
The God of Death wiped away the non-existent tears in the sky, "Ah~ It's been a long time since I've been like this. It's been too long!"
Amidst the cheers, the giant demon Death, who had made huge profits, disappeared from the sky.
At this time, Tonatiu, who was driving the huge ravaging dragon Loa, had already arrived in front of Princess Talanji, who was leading a large number of Zandalari troll officials to greet him, with an excited and nervous expression.
"The Loa bless you." Looking at the tall and strong God King on the tall Tyrannosaurus, the Zandalari princess lowered her head slightly and said in front of the Zandalari trolls.
The loud cheers fell silent for a moment, and the trolls all looked at the God King and the princess. Their expressions were almost as nervous as the princess's.
From extremely noisy to extremely quiet, the change was so fast that it was as if the pause button was suddenly pressed.
In silence.
Looking down at the princess, Tonatiu, who had always had a serious expression, suddenly smiled faintly, and stretched out his broad and heavy hand towards her:
"Talanji, come to me when I come. Sit with me and accept the cheers of Zandalari."
The next moment, the trolls seemed to have been pressed on the pause button.
It was as if a start button had been pressed, and the thundering cheers sounded again.
Talanji was brought to the God King.
She was quiet and well-behaved, with an excited smile on her face, waving to the Zandalari trolls on both sides from time to time, and huddled against the God King's chest like a child.
Half-embracing the Zandalari princess, Tonatiu was cheered by countless Zandalari trolls. He led the elite army remaining after the Zandalari war and climbed towards the Pyramid of Zuldazar.
The target is the giant seal.
A scene that will make countless Zandalari trolls cry in awe and tears when they think of today in the future.
Zuldazar is shrouded in heavy dark clouds during the rainy season, with heavy downpours everywhere, and every place is extremely humid.
There is only one exception.
That's where the triumphant God-King stepped, starting from the gates of Tar'Farrak and ending with his climb to Zuldazar's Golden Steps.
Even the heavy dark clouds were dispersed above the head of the God King. It seemed as if wherever he went, the sun would go there.
Like a giant searchlight, the sun always follows the traces of the God King.
Many years later, this scene was called the "Road of the God King" by the trolls of Zuldazar. And since then, the starting point of Zuldazar's Dinosaur Festival has also changed from the Giant Seal to Tal'Farrak.
city gate.
The trolls who celebrate the Dinosaur Festival are proud to re-walk the path of victory that the God-King walked.
Maintaining a leisurely pace, it took a long time, and was greeted with cheers and excitement along the way.
In the afternoon.
The army led by Tonatiu finally arrived at its destination - the celebration platform on the giant seal.
When the God-King got off the ravaging dragon Loa, the terrifying and mighty-looking Nergigante also happened to fly up.
Two behemoths stood behind Tonatiu, exuding an aura that would make even the most powerful Zandalar trolls feel palpitated.
