Chapter 7: Into the Orc Territory
Fars looked at the figure of Regner in the distance, his eyes flickered, and due to the presence of Annelot beside him, he finally did not make any other moves, but continued to cast spells to bombard the orcs.
Regner flicked the flaming blade, shaking the orc captain's blood away, and then looked behind him, the lame orc hadn't gone far.
Although Fars did not ask for the total annihilation of the orcs, Regner still felt that the news of a human team penetrating into orc territory was best blocked for a few days.
So, he dodged the attacks of the two orcs who pounced on him, then dropped the smoke bomb and disappeared from the enemy's view.
Mordryk pushed forward with the grief in his heart, and when he turned back, he happened to see his father falling.
Anger, humiliation, sadness, and other emotions rushed up, and he wanted to take the tomahawk in his hand and go back to fight the human to the death, but he didn't.
Because Mordric has more important things to do, bringing the news of the imminent invasion of the human team to the surrounding tribes.
He now understood why his father had given him this order, not only to reduce the damage to the tribe, but also to save his only son.
The orc captain knew very well what a terrible group of human mages were, so when he found out that there were three mages on the other side, he concluded that this battle could not be won.
"If I hadn't been so impulsive, maybe all of us wouldn't have died. Mordric thought to himself.
Because he irresponsibly led the team to charge, the patrol team rushed forward when the strength of the enemy and the enemy was unknown. At that time, if they had obeyed their father's command, maybe they might have escaped with their whole body, at least not to end up with the whole team being wiped out.
Mordric gritted his teeth and pressed forward with his physical and mental pain, deciding to atone for his sins by suicide after informing all the tribes, and although this death was very humiliating in the eyes of the orcs, he felt that this shame was nothing compared to the shame he was now enduring.
But he was destined to not be able to accomplish everything he had envisioned, because Regner's figure appeared in front of him.
Regner looked at Modric in front of him with interest, he had learned a lot about orcs in the past two years. You must know that this group of tendonous guys all scream and rush forward when they encounter the enemy, but no orc will choose to run away, and the orcs will also be afraid and afraid?
But Modrick gave his own answer with action, and he brandished his axe and rushed at Regner without hesitation.
Mordryk knew that it was this human who had killed his father, and now he had come to kill himself. Although he knew that he could not be the opponent of this human race, Mordric still rushed over, if the battle was inevitable, if death was inevitable, then bravely face it!
The pride of the orcs!
Regner looked at Mordric who rushed towards him with some surprise, and he seemed to see in this orc the shadow of himself two years ago. Although he is very weak, he still wants to prove something with his insignificant strength.
So he didn't kill Modric in the first place, and Regner shook, dodging the orc's slash and came behind him. Ragnar hunched slightly, then sent two steel daggers into the orc's knee socket.
Losing the support of his legs, Modric immediately fell to the ground, but he completely ignored the pain in his lower body, and just struggled to turn over, looking at Regner with fierce and stubborn eyes.
Ragnar stared at him for a moment, then finally sighed and sent the Light-Swallowing Sword into Modric's chest.
Ragnar stared at Modric, he found that if you look at it, this orc should be very young, probably only a little older than himself, or not as big as himself?When the long sword was inserted into the heart, Modric's face was not distorted by pain, and Ragner only saw humiliation, unwillingness, and ...... in his eyes Doubt.
Why? Why did you kill me, why did you invade our home? Regna understood the meaning of that look.
He silently pulled out the swallowing light, and then looked back blankly, the battle behind him was almost over, and under the indiscriminate bombardment of the three mid-level mages, the orcs were harvested in patches like wheat after autumn.
Now only a few orcs were left fighting desperately, as if they had not seen their companions almost dead.
Under the desperate attack of the orcs, there were also some casualties among the humans. Four of the twenty warrior retinues brought by Fars were killed in battle, and six others were wounded.
But for these casualties, Fars did not even frown. In his opinion, these retinues are consumables that can be sacrificed, and there is no pity for them all to die.
Deville, however, sighed for the dead people, and then began to pester Anne Lot with a relapse of the old sickness, and gave her two bottles of magic potion without saying anything, as a mage, he knew very well how dangerous and painful the magic emptiness was.
Ragnar returned to the crowd without saying a word, and he nodded to Cordak and the others, then sat back and watched the others collect the loot.
"Mr. Kordak's team of mercenaries is well deserved, and it seems that this decision to hire you on the last spot was a wise decision. Please accept my gratitude. Fars came over at some point.
Kordaq looked back at Gols, and then smiled: "Mr. Fars is serious, we are just rough people who have money to help people do things, and we still can't compare to a noble mage like you." Presumably, Mr. Fars didn't pay much attention to the money of these hundreds of gold coins. ”
"That's right, a few hundred gold coins is really not a lot of money for a mage. But isn't Miss Annelot in Mr. Kordark's team also a mage, and why is she a mercenary?" asked Fars, seemingly unintentionally.
"Anne is naturally not short of money, she joined our mercenary team just for training. Naturally, Kordak would not be stupid enough to casually tell Annelot's true identity.
"Oh, I wonder if Miss Anne Lott can have a guild to rely on? With her talent, I think that if she comes to our Arcane Eyes, she will be treated no less than me. Fars asked.
Kordak felt a pang in his heart, he didn't know if Fars wanted to test something, so he could only pretend to be casual and said: "Then I don't know, I remember that she originally said that she had a teacher, but it is difficult to say whether there is a guild or not, at least I have never heard her mention it." ”
"I see, what about the little brother Regner? he has an eleventh level fighting spirit at a young age, and he can be regarded as a rare genius, hasn't he been absorbed by any guild?" Fars continued to ask, he now wanted to test some more information about Ragner and Annelot.
Kordak grinned, "That kid, he's a member of the Miscellaneous Duties Department of the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild, and he was still hanging around Emerald Street two days ago, and he basically collected the protection money for that piece." ”
Anyway, the fact that Regnar is a member of the Lunaris Thieves Guild is not a secret, so Kordak simply said it. Pretending to be mysterious would have aroused Fars's suspicions.
"Uh...... So that's it...... Unexpectedly, the eleventh-level mid-level assassins could only work in the miscellaneous department of the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild, and it seems that that mysterious organization is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Fars looked strange.
Seeing that Looks was confused by his own blow, Kordak also took the opportunity to change the topic: "There have been a lot of gains in today's battle, what is Mr. Fars's plan to do next?"
Fars thought for a moment and said, "Go deeper, this time we're going to go around the orc tribe." ”
"As you wish. "Kordak doesn't object, Fars is here anyway, it's impossible for him not to know the danger, since he still chooses to go deeper, it can only show that Fars has the certainty of safe evacuation.
......
Two days later, in the evening, Fars' team came to the vicinity of an orc tribe.
The tribe of orcs is actually the equivalent of a human town, but with more people, more basic buildings, and a dirtier environment.
As for cities, perhaps only Orgrimmar, the capital of the Orc Empire, can be counted as a city, and the rest of the place is not much different from a pigsty in the eyes of humans. And that Ogrimmar is estimated to be a second-rate city at best, and there is no way to compare it with the bustling Meteor City.
"It's a big deal today!" said Kordak, who was excited in the middle of the night.
It's no wonder that if you can really raid an orc tribe this time, I'm afraid that you can kill five or six hundred orc warriors, even if you only get a third of your ears, it will be a huge sum of thousands of gold coins.
With this money, Uncle Kordaq will have more confidence to go back to the Flaming Hammer to buy things, and save himself from relying on his body to carefully block Vera's gaze as he did in the past, in case this shopaholic sees something that he shouldn't see.
"Alright, let's go, be careful, kill as many enemies as you can before you get noticed. Fars gave everyone a final command.
The battle took place at midnight, and the sleeping orcs had no idea that humans would be able to come here. They fought in such a hurry that some orcs even rushed out with their bare butts and wooden sticks. Unsurprisingly, they were either hacked to death by the human swords, or blasted to smithereens by the spells of the three mages.
By dawn, all the orcs who resisted had been killed, and the only orcs left were old men, women, and children. They were guarded by ten well-armed humans, tied to each other on ropes, and gathered together helplessly.
"Alright, it's time to go, this ticket is worth it!" said Kordak, wiping the blood from his face.
"But, Mr. Kordak. Fars smiled and pointed to the last group of captured orcs and said, "There are still a batch of ears here, don't you want them? That's more than a thousand gold coins." ”
