Early the next morning, after Durin entered the trenches and mentioned the Bloodsuckers, the dismissive expressions of the veterans showed that the Bloodsuckers were just as Eleven and Big Orange analyzed, merely there to deplete their ammunition.
The veterans said, as long as you had the guts, three Changtangians could use bayonets to take down three Bloodsuckers without getting injured themselves.
What the Changtang soldiers feared most were other things, like armored Blood Apostles. These guys carried weapons imbued with Cursed Power, and any injury inflicted by them was very difficult to heal.
They might use uranium-infused weaponry just like the Green-skinned Orcs.
Durin was still wondering how these things were manufactured, truly unexpected.
But the question remains, where does the uranium come from? Does the ecosystem even have uranium mines?
