13.Chapter 13

Roddy narrowed his eyes slightly, and whispered his plan, "The orc camp can't be replenished in a short period of time without the mobile force of wolf cavalry, which means that they will definitely be empty of troops in a few days! If there is a surprise attack, then there is a good chance that we will just pull out this nail and let those orcs get out!"

This seemed to be very much to Ruger's appetite, although he was still indignant at Roddy beating him, but if the truth could really make the orcs fuck off as Roddy said, he didn't mind letting go of the "secondary contradiction" and resolutely confronting the "main contradiction" together - after all, for him, he still wanted to avenge his lost comrades.

If Roddy could really let him slash those damn orcs, Luger would be willing to take ten beatings, not to mention one beating!

"You said there were more than twenty people in the orc camp, so... Even if we go together, there is no hope of victory. Don't tell me you're just talking. We can kill the wolf cavalry, I believe, but on the other side is an orc in a camp, how can we kill them?

This is a very objective question, and no matter how clever Roddy is, he can't avoid it. To be honest, Lu Ge still hoped that the kid in front of him could come up with a way to kill eight wolf knights today, which actually made him understand that the other party's ability was not limited to this, but he had to give himself a reason.

A reason to stand up and avenge those former comrades.

"It's been a long time since the kingdom has dealt with orcs, and many people have forgotten their weaknesses, forgotten our human strengths... Or rather, we seem to have forgotten the most important point - and that is... Orcs aren't as strong as you might think. ”

Roddy's words were quite ironic, there have been many frictions and battles on the border in the past thirty years, but without exception, humans have made concessions, because there is no army led by the lord, so in the small battle, the human without formation tactics can not defeat those strong orcs in the melee.

At this point, others may not understand what it means, but Ruger raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.

"Why can I easily kill these orcs?Why did we win a big victory without losing in today's battle?" Roddy did not speak to Luger in a mocking tone at this time, but explained to the other party as the same "captain", which made Luger accept everything he said without disgust, "Because in war, it is not about catching the right one-on-one, using appropriate tactics, we can also kill them bloodlessly like today!"

Incendiary words can only be truly convincing when they match the facts, no matter whether Luo Di was really hiding it before, now that he has killed half of the wolf cavalry team by himself, he can't help but let others not believe Luo Di's words.

Hearing these words, Luge's originally somewhat wavering heart was actually excited that he hadn't been in a long time - it was a blood that was still cold in his bones...

"What if... I mean, if- you're really sure, a squad of scouts is at your command!"

"And, as long as I can kill those greenskins, I won't hold a grudge against anything that happened today. Ruger narrowed his eyes slightly, "But if you're just exaggerating..."

Needless to say, this is just a statement by Ruger - for this kind of words, Roddy just nodded in acceptance, he did not rush to say anything, but his eyes swept over the scouts in front of him, and waited for a few seconds before continuing: "... I just want to emphasize one thing: this is war, and all of us can die at any time, not even the corpses. ”

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

"If we want to stop them, what we have to do is not to scout, not to shoot a few arrows from a distance and run, but to fight the orcs face to face!"

"We're all going to have to face those guys in the end, there's no going to be any luck. ”

"So... If there are people who want to quit, I don't stop them. But among those who stay, I don't want to see any of them dragging their feet. ”

At this moment, in front of this group of scouts, Roddy was indeed qualified to say such words to beat them. Whether or not this team of only fourteen people can be called an "army", the backbone of any small group must exist - and Roddy is the core role of this team that is about to embark on a journey.

In the face of Roddy's words, no one flinched.

Maybe it's because of ignorance, maybe it's because of naivety, but more importantly, it's for the uncooled blood in their hearts like Ruger...

This scene did not surprise Roddy... Having fought on the battlefield for the kingdom of Karen, he understands... Whether or not the country eventually shatters and perishes, its people will have an unyielding will.

Especially on this war-torn border, "blood" and "courage" are the most obvious labels for everyone.

Things began to go smoothly as Roddy became the commander of the two scout teams, and announced their disbandment after setting a meeting time for tomorrow. After a silent supper with a group of people with their own concerns, he walked to the blacksmith with two scimitars in his hand.

Does this battle need to be fought?

Luo Di weighed for a long time, and finally made up his mind to do it, he is not a guy who rushes up to prepare for a brutal job as soon as his head is hot, as a former tech nerd, the profession of ranger makes him know the most, is how to use the least resources to do the most things.

The morning knock over Ruger wasn't just for the sake of venting his anger - eliminating instability in the ranks was Roddy's fundamental purpose. Luge knows each other best, and if he doesn't, Roddy will never let him act with him. Now the result has been called beyond imagination, the scouts are united and have the same purpose, with such a team, Roddy dares to make the decision to attack tomorrow.

It's just twenty orcs within level 4, and Roddy is confident that with his own means and knowledge of orcs, if he is allowed to deal with those guys single-handedly, he can solve the problem in a few days. However, then he would face the danger that the enemy might replenish the wolf cavalry, and considering his entire plan for the future, Roddy still felt after all... A lone ranger can't change the country.

He needed more resources, even if it was just a dozen scouts who were less than level 4 at the beginning.

But thinking about the number of orcs in that camp, he couldn't help but sigh...

"It's a bit of a hassle. ”

Remembering what I saw today, the trenches had been dug around the orc camp to hinder the cavalry attack, which was tantamount to adding insult to injury for the scouts who had the advantage of war horses, and if the orc stronghold was stubbornly defended, it would not be possible to win more with less on the plain - although conventional tactics may not have no chance of winning, but the casualties must be heavy.

Carrying two orc scimitars, Roddy thought about walking into the blacksmith shop, thinking about how to solve the most enemies in the shortest possible time, but unexpectedly, his posture frightened the blacksmith Stan of Nolan Village, making the other party scream and almost flee.

For no other reason, the shape of the orc scimitar is far more powerful than the scout's dagger, and it takes a lot of effort for ordinary people to hold one, while Roddy has one in one hand, and the image is a fierce mess, far more terrifying than the bard's steppe thief. Blacksmith Stan has been working for thirty years, and he has not seen much of the world, the largest city he has ever walked through is Hollier, and he has never even seen living orcs, let alone elves or halflings, so Roddy who walked into the shop in the sunset at this time really scared him enough.

"Uncle Stan, it's me. ”

Luo Di hurriedly put away the double knives, showing a harmless smile - of course Starr knew Luo Di, he had borrowed tools here in the morning to polish the horn bow, but because it was completely dark, the silhouette was really full of anger when the vision was blurred, and when he heard Luo Di's voice, the middle-aged uncle who was not very bold walked out of the corner, and only after a while did he come to his senses, and after complaining a few words, he asked, "Yes... It's you... Roddy... What are you doing so late?"

"I'd like to borrow your furnace and anvil to use. Roddy gets straight to the point and makes this jaw-dropping request.

As an alternative player who has switched from a life player to a PVP, Roddy, who has a Berserker sub-class, has also studied "weapon forging", but the level has not reached the top level, but only reached [Advanced], but compared to the blacksmith in front of him, Roddy is more than enough to be the master of the other party.

The weapons in "Ripper" are not dropped by fighting monsters, and most of the weapons used by players must be made by themselves, including bows, arrows, conventional weapons and even crossbows, so the number of life professional players is not inferior to those PVP players, and Roddy is one of the countless people who used to work tirelessly to make bows made of iron and skin.

For Roddy at this moment, he needed to make some changes to the two scimitars - including the center of gravity, weight reduction and sharpness, etc., so that he was just level 2 and could use two scimitars at the same time.

Roddy is well aware that his strengths lie in his memory and combat skills, and that Berserker's ferocity is unmatched in his ability to dramatically increase the damage of an instantaneous burst. Although he is only a level 2 pawn now, and his attributes are not attenuated by a star and a half compared to the original, if he uses the combat skills of a berserker to fight, it is still okay to double the attack power in the same level in a short period of time.

The only thing to worry about is the defense lost for this - now he is a scumbag of the second level of the basic class, if you talk about defense, you can only rely on your own combat experience to dodge, and when facing an orc who is as powerful as a cow, it is not so reliable to parry. Under the suppression of no attribute advantage, Luo Di thought that he could not compete with the group of green-skinned animals.

He pondered his tactics in his head, but the blacksmith Stan in front of him didn't move, he just thought that Roddy in front of him was crazy - "Lodi, I know your fight with the orcs is hard and dangerous, but that's not a reason to drive you crazy..."

"Huh?" Roddy came back to his senses, looking at Stan in front of him with a comforting expression to persuade himself, and suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, "I need to modify these two knives, just borrow your tools, and don't need any extra materials." ”

"You think striking iron is playing with mud?!I've been striking iron for thirty yearsβ€”"

Before he finished his words, he saw Roddy reach out and hand over the few copper coins on his body...

"Count me into the mud, okay? Uncle Stan?"

Roddy had no other choice but to repeat the old trick, but fortunately Stan was not so difficult to speak, seeing that Roddy insisted on using it, he had to wave his hand and let him take the tools to use, the two copper coins were not even seen, compared to the quartermaster Dick, he was a very kind countryman.

Roddy didn't talk nonsense, took the tools and got busy working beside the furnace that had not yet been extinguished, skillfully pulling the bellows to raise the temperature of the flame, and then "clanging" began his modifications.

Stan, who had only been on a whim for Roddy, stood aside with his shoulders crossed. At first, he just waited for Roddy to hit the hammer a few times and then gave up, but he didn't know Roddy's movement standards without any bad habits, and he was completely in the posture of a senior blacksmith...

This made his eyes widen, and the arrogance that he was originally ready to "guide the country" suddenly disappeared.

And then he grows his mouth even more, because Roddy's blacksmithing skills even make Stan feel sincerely ashamed...
