Chapter 225: Ogre
As knights, these people also have a certain combat effectiveness in the dark, although they can't see it as clearly as Ma Long.
But the silhouette of something close can still be seen, far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers.
That is, in this Black Forest, there is not even moonlight, and if it is in the outside world, the line of sight is even clearer.
Not knowing what the enemy was, Malone didn't act rashly, just listened carefully to the other party's movements.
"It seems to be a two-legged humanoid, not small, but only one."
This is what Malone judged by his own hearing, but he can't think of any guy who can grow that big?
Even the orcs are a big difference in size.
The sound of the other party's footsteps was intermittent, not in a hurry, and not straight in the direction of the camp.
Does this mean that it hasn't found out about its line yet, or has found it, but is not interested in paying attention to it for the time being?
"How long is it going to be daylight?" Malone asked Kane.
Now that it's too dark, it's not conducive to their own actions, and if they can survive until dawn, they will regain the initiative.
Even if Hesse is still dark during the day, the sight is much better than at night!
"About two hours!"
Ma Long nodded and ordered: "Be careful, the other party may not have noticed us, don't make too much noise, it's better to wait until dawn." ”
"Yes!" Kane whispered and explained to his knights.
The giant animal moved for a moment, as if too lazy to go any further, and stopped in one place to stop moving.
Even so, everyone did not rest again, but were extremely vigilant, in case this was the other party's trick: to let their party relax their vigilance!
The knights sat next to each other in twos and threes, and discussed in a whisper: "What do you think it is, I don't look like a beast!" ”
Malone was also thinking about it.
He had seen barbarians and orcs, and their size could not make such movements.
What would that be?
Mountain giants?
He wanted to go and see it alone, but he felt that it was time not to be separated from his men, for fear that something would happen.
The sky was getting brighter outside, and the foggy darkness of the Black Forest was thinning, and the knights could see in the distance, provided there were no foliage to block it.
Cautiously, the group formed a semi-encirclement and headed to the last place where the sound was heard during the night.
With a stop gesture and a shrub open, Malone saw the target clearly.
It was a humanoid creature with gray skin and green or purple patches.
The other party sat on the ground, three meters tall, and if he stood up and added the length of his legs, he would probably have to be five or six meters.
It had its back to Marlon, its head down, nibbling on something, presumably eating breakfast.
Marlon was thinking about whether to attack it, whether he could avoid the other party, but one of his knights let out an exclamation, "Ogre ......"
This sound interrupted Ma Long's thoughts, and the tall guy who was eating made a move, but he turned around and looked in the direction of Ma Long.
Seeing Marlon and the others, the ogre opened his big mouth, and he was clearly laughing.
"Hehe......"
It was happy, and before it finished eating the food in its hand, a new one was delivered to its door.
The ogre still opened his hand and stood up on the ground.
Malone could see clearly that it was a human leg that was thrown away.
How can there be people here?
Maybe elfs or half-elves!
"Prepare for battle!"
Without Malone's order, Kane began to organize his subordinates to prepare for battle.
As for the gang who screamed and exposed everyone, he would naturally be cleaned up after the battle.
"Kill ......"
Two squads of knights, under Kane's command, rushed towards the ogre.
Space is limited, and others act as reserves to prevent possible accidents.
Twenty knights surrounded the ogre, and steel spears and sharp swords beckoned to him.
"Sneer......"
The sound of weapons entering the flesh continued to sound, and the ogre suddenly had more than a dozen wounds on his body.
There are scratches cut by the sword, and there are holes cut by the spear.
"Whew......"
The ogre snarled loudly and waved his arms to drive the knights away like flies.
When the arms were flaid, the knights struck back again, their sturdy bodies playing the ogres around.
Squadron Leader Kane had no joy on his face, and it seemed that the knights had the upper hand, and it was only a matter of time before the ogre fell.
But if you look closely, you can see that the ogre and Ben didn't bleed much.
The knights were able to pierce the orc's spear in their hands, piercing it with only half a spear head, and the sword only cut through the skin, which was worthy of blood.
And the injuries it has suffered are recovering at a rate that is visible to the naked eye.
The knights did little to hurt it other than pain.
On the contrary, it is constantly moving, dodging attacks, causing a great drain on physical strength.
If you wait until the knights are exhausted, the result will be reversed.
The problems that Kane can see, Malone naturally sees too.
But he didn't make a move, and this is also the time to test the abilities of his knights.
He also wanted to see how the knights would respond.
Kane quickly changed his battle plan, not letting the knights attack directly, but instead some of them attracted the attention of the other party, and the other took the opportunity to use force in the same direction and directly knocked them to the ground.
"Boom ......"
The ogre, which was more than five meters tall, fell to the ground with a muffled thud, and the ground shook slightly.
"Hold it down......" Kane shouted.
Suddenly, all the knights came on the field, except for those left in the camp, nearly forty other people all came on the field, pressing their hands, tying their feet, and some people fixed each other's heads.
The ogre struggled to the death, roaring loudly and roaring, but unfortunately he could not break free.
"Sneer......"
A spear stabbed into its mouth, successfully silencing it.
But silence didn't mean peace, the ogre roared and began to bite the barrel of the gun, competing with steel.
"My lord, what should I do?"
Seeing Malone coming over, Kane asked in a low voice.
"Killed, still with cubs?"
"Yes!"
Mills's sword was raised high, and he performed his attacking and killing swordsmanship, and fought hard to slash down.
"Sneer......"
The sword slashed nearly a third of the way through it, and it was stuck.
"Haha......"
A tall knight smiled and said, "Mills, you haven't practiced this attack and killing, you can't even cut off your head." ”
"Hurry up, hurry up, don't you have to press it?" There is a knight urging.
Mills's face was slightly red, and he said unconvinced: "Can you come?" ”
"Come on...... the tall knight had never fought an ogre, and confidently switched places with Mills, ready to start.
Malone could see clearly that the wound that was originally cut by Mills had recovered as before, and there was no trace of it.
At first, this ogre didn't have such a strong resilience, what was going on?
The tall knight used the same attacking and killing swordsmanship as Mills, and it was also the most proficient skill he practiced.
Although he laughed at Mills, he also recognized his strength, and the tall knight also recognized it.
The other party didn't cut off a sword, and if he didn't pay with all his strength, he might make a fool of himself.
