The Record of Orc Civilization - Chapter 154 New Frontline
Moku sits on a temporary throne made of stone. His head was tilted to the side with his chin resting on his left hand. His shoulders relaxed casually and his legs spread wide.
Nevare sat on his right thigh leaning on Moku’s shoulder. Her stomach that has swelled again indicating that the second Moku offspring will be born from the same mother. Meanwhile, Nezena, who is sitting on the chair beside his throne, will soon follow, it can be seen from her hand that continues to stroke her stomach waiting to immediately swell up. While Moku’s third wife, Nerphyl is currently absent, she is meditating under a waterfall to increase her mental strength.
On the right side of the throne, sit four generals. Their eyes stared scorchingly, their brows furrowed, and their jaws clenched tightly. The two of them narrowed their eyes with thoughts filled with many things. While the other two generals clenched their fists impatiently waiting for orders for war.
In front of the temporary throne, there is the carcass of an Quadrupedal Arachnid that was killed by Moku yesterday afternoon. He had put it in this place ever since he returned at night. The goblins, sylphs, and alraunes surrounding the Quadrupedal Arachnid carcass have also been in this place since last night. They seemed to have forgotten the time and focused on examining the carcass of the Quadrupedal Arachnid in front of them.
Even so, Moku didn’t have the whole day to wait for the goblins, sylphs, and alraune in front of him to be satisfied with examining the Quadrupedal Arachnid carcasses. He therefore cleared his throat and brought their attention back to him. “I apologize for rushing you guys, but right now we need information about the enemy who is most likely rapidly approaching Wilwatikta Kingdom. Therefore tell everyone present what you have found. We start from Goburu”
A goblin named Goburu nodded, he was the head of the Wilwatikta Kingdom’s Blacksmith association, joined in the Worker Kingdom headed by Tam and under the Civil Administration. He was appointed because he was the most experienced blacksmith among all the goblins.
“I researched the hardness of the exoskeleton on the body of the creature you named the Quadrupedal Arachnid. I found that this exoskeleton has a hardness that exceeds some types of iron but is also very flexible and easy to shape. If we have a large number of Quadrupedal Arachnid’s exoskeletons then we can make as many exoskeleton armor troops as we want–”
“Goburu…” Moku interrupted Goburu who was about to chatter about making new armor and returned his explanation “What about their claws and mandibles? Are they capable of killing an orc in one hit?”
Goburu whose speech was cut flinched before he stroked his chin and replied seriously “If these three weapons of theirs only hit a non-vital part of the orc’s body then it wouldn’t be dangerous. However, if these three Quadrupedal Arachnid’s weapons hit a vital area then there’s a chance the orc could be killed in one hit. Due to their hardness and sharpness, these three weapons of theirs are capable of penetrating the skin and flesh of the orcs with ease but it would probably require more strength to cut through the orc’s bones”
p A gasp of surprise rang out in the room. All the monsters looked very serious, especially the orcs. Of course, what Goburu meant was ordinary orcs who had not been able to use inner power to strengthen their limbs (before the First level of breathing technique). However, this was still very surprising because apart from the ability to regenerate, the orcs’ endurance was well-known as their superiority compared to other monster races.
Moku remained calm and stroked Nevare’s stomach gently. His attention turned to the sylph next to Goburu, “Lesnen, tell us your findings” Moku ordered.

A sylph bowed his head and replied, he is the head of the Wilwatikta Kingdom’s Breeders association, belonging to the Kingdom Market division which is headed by Iathra and is under the Civil Administration. As a sylph who was formerly Nerphyl’s right-hand man, Lesnen has knowledge of animals more than any other sylph.
Unlike the other sylphs who only possess animals to eat, Lesnen possesses animals to study animal life and the way they communicate in their group. That’s why Iathra as the Head of Kingdom Market sent him to take care of every animal that is under the control of the Wilwatikta Kingdom.
“I found that the insect you named the Quadrupedal Arachnid does not have an abdomen on its body. The abdomen in insects functions for digestion, respiration, excretion, and reproduction. So it is impossible for an insect to not have an abdomen because that also means the insect cannot digest its food and cannot produce offspring. Based on this I have two hypotheses regarding this Quadrupedal Arachnid in front of us” Lesnen raised two fingers with a frown.
“The first possibility is if the Quadrupedal Arachnid that Moku found was just an Quadrupedal Arachnid that was thrown out of the herd because of his deformed body. So that the actual shape of the Quadrupedal Arachnid is a complete form with three complete body parts, the head, thorax, and abdomen.” Lesnen cupped one finger.
His frown grew and his face grew more serious as if he couldn’t believe the hypothesis he was about to say himself.
“The second possibility is if this Quadrupedal Arachnid was designed or shaped without an abdomen.” Lesnen cupped his last fingers.
Question marks appeared on the faces of everyone present in the room, including Moku. But those with strong hunches sensed something bad was about to happen.
Nevare sat with a straight back “Lesnen, what do you mean designed and shaped?”
“What I mean is that these Quadrupedal Arachnids are born to live without an abdomen. The life process of insects starts from eggs and then become larvae. At the larval stage, they need a lot of food to form their bodies into a complete insects. But if the larvae only form two body parts (head and thorax) then the food and the time they need to become adult insects will decrease significantly.
That way there is a possibility that the Quadrupedal Arachnid that Moku found was indeed only formed to survive for a while until the task was completed. As a result, the colony can mass produce Quadrupedal Arachnids quickly for a small fee.
And based on Goburu’s findings, this Quadrupedal Arachnid only has two jobs in life, namely to hunt prey and bring it to their nest.” In the second paragraph, Lesnen’s face turned pale because he had just realized that the prey that this Quadrupedal Arachnid would hunt were them.
One room fell silent and for a moment everyone seemed to be lost in their own thoughts. Until Moku asked in a very relaxed tone “Do you think there are other forms of Quadrupedal Arachnid in their colony?”

Hearing the question addressed to him, Lesnen nodded in response “I think there are other types of Quadrupedal Arachnids because the Quadrupedal Arachnid in front of us only serves to fight and find prey”
Moku adjusted his sitting position so that it was more upright, Nevare on his lap looking for a more comfortable position. “Ornell, what about the meat from the Quadrupedal Arachnid? Is the meat poisonous or can we consume it?”
Ornell, who had been waiting for her turn, immediately replied, “I found a stimulant substance in the Quadrupedal Arachnid flesh. However, it is harmless to monsters with our unusual body resistance. However, it would be dangerous if Quadrupedal Arachnid’s flesh was consumed by children and ordinary humans. Bur Quadrupedal Arachnid meat has the higher nutrition than ordinary animal meat, one Quadrupedal Arachnid can meet the orc’s food needs for one day”
Moku nodded and turned his gaze to the four generals beside him “How long can you make a strategy to face our new enemy? I want the battle not to happen in Bitter Maja, our defense is still not ready so the first phase of the battle aims to give time for the Kingdom Construction division can complete their task.
Mige who is the Head of Military Strategy Division replied “We need three.. no.. two days to complete this strategy”
Moku nodded and hugged Nevare, he then stood up while holding Nevare between his arms “Alright, I’ll go to the front line first to find information about the battle area and the enemy–”
“Moku, I’m sorry to interrupt. But can you give the task to me… I mean to my division?” Swa stood up and cut off Moku’s words.
Moku turned to him and asked “Are you sure?”
Swa nodded firmly and looked into Moku’s eyes showing his seriousness “I’m sure and my division is ready! Please entrust this task to us!” Swa lowered his head.
There was worry in Moku’s heart that Swa would mess up and add to the trouble for Mige and the others. But Swa had been chosen by Ez, and Moku trusted his prime minister’s views. Because of that Moku nodded “Alright, I trust you, Cooperate with Mige and his division and do whatever they ask.”
Swa hit his chest hard and lowered his head “I understand! Thank you!”
“Hmm… Alright everyone do what you have to do. The meeting is dismissed” said Moku as he turned to leave the room first with Nevare on his arm and Nezena following behind.
