Chapter 242: Victory is like defeat 2
"Ahh
"Poof!"
"Boom!"
As the last member of the patrol was cut off by Hypatia, the road that had just been killed suddenly fell silent,
Only the thick smell of blood that began to spread in the air reminded everyone that a one-sided massacre had just taken place here,
The battle started suddenly, and it ended quickly, from the time Tal made a move, the entire battle process probably didn't exceed thirty seconds, and the difference in combat power was too big.
On the patrol side, even the leader is only the level of an elite soldier, where can he be the elite opponent of the half-orc elite selected by the orc kingdom with the strength of the whole country,
This group of half-orcs is at least able to lead five hundred officers in the orc army, and now they are all concentrated here to attack an ordinary peasant patrol, the effect is simply like a dimensionality reduction strike, look carefully, most of these half-orcs do not even have a trace of blood on their bodies, which shows the huge gap.
"Brother Thal, what do we do now?"
Hypatia, who had vented her irritable emotions in her heart, finally came back to her senses at this time, although she was a little impulsive, but she was not stupid, and she knew that her and the others would not be conducive to the execution of the task at all.
"Heh, what else can I do, we can't explain to the legion elder when we go back at this time, continue to investigate, and then we have to prepare to be besieged by the human lord."
"What are you afraid of, if they dare to come, I will cut them down one by one."
"Alas"
Tal smiled bitterly and shook his head, the matter has come to this point, and he has no good way, even if he agrees with Hypatia's reckless words, there is really no good way to do it next,
It is impossible for him to take a really good man and turn back less than a day after he came out, while saying that he can't get along with the legion commander, and he himself is embarrassed to go back.
In Tar's opinion, as long as they don't defend the human army head-on, a team like theirs is only bent on exploring the terrain and escaping, even if the humans want to encircle them, as long as they are careful, there will not be much danger.
After all, there are no dragon knights in the Northland, and there are no earth-level powerhouses, and they are invincible in small-scale battles.
"Let's go, let's go!"
"Where are we going?"
"Go to the nearest human town first, at least you have to disguise yourself, like a group of merchants, what are we like, alas."
"Okay, let's take a walk, it's better to get some more food when you go to the human town, these days there is no snow giant to send prey, I eat my own dry food every day, I don't even have some oil meat in my mouth, I'm going to be hungry and thin!"
Tal and the others quickly buried the bodies of Merconay and the others before continuing south.
Although Merconne's patrol will have to be noticed sooner or later after it disappears, burying the corpses to cover up can delay a little time, so that their bodies can be found later, and Tal and the others will have more leeway.
…
night
Near the village of Little Rock, a large group of people with torches were searching for something.
At least 50 cavalry and 300 peasants gathered around Xiaoshi Village, which was already the largest mobile force that the surrounding villages and towns could draw.
"Captain, I've searched the neighborhood, but I haven't found the patrol team from Xiaoshi Village."
"Keep looking, if you live to see people and die, you will see corpses."
"Yes, sir!"
The patrol team of Xiaoshi Village disappeared silently, and the patrol team that originally changed shifts with them decisively reported the anomaly after waiting for an extra half an hour without waiting for the Merconnay team, and the superior cavalry patrol captain also attached great importance to the anomaly of Xiaoshi Village, and deployed the greatest force within his own authority to search for this disappeared patrol.
"Looks like something happened..."
The cavalry captain knew very well that a peasant patrol, patrolling on this familiar territory, basically there would be no such thing as being late and missing the deadline, and the weather today was not bad, not an extreme weather, let alone an accident, now from afternoon to evening, a few hours have passed, and no trace of them has been found, and the possibility of people living may not be great.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency! There's a situation here! ”
"Take me to see it."
