Chapter Ninety-Four: A Counterattack in a Crisis
It was dark, and the rush of the river could only be roughly outlined, and there was no sound in the other basins of the Black Songde except for the roar of the river, but in the second half of the river, the cries of the orcs rang out one after another, and never stopped.
The river ahead was black, and only a rough outline could be seen, but somewhere in the middle of the river, there was a glittering boat!
The boat went down the river, undulating with the river, and faintly, a human voice came from it.
But if you're here, you won't be able to hear them, because even if the sound of the river doesn't stop your ears, the arrows of the orc soldiers will surely make you flee.
This is a battlefield, and the sound of arrows breaking through the air continues to sound from here, and the orcs divide into several groups, taking turns to suppress the direction of the boat.
In fact, it is said that there are several strands, but a few people take turns to fight, and most orcs cannot attack the area of the small boat, and only a few orcs have this strength.
Because of this, many orcs have nothing to do for a while. I heard one of the orc soldiers with a large mouth whisper to his companion next to him, "The leader's archery skills are really accurate!"
Under his crotch was a wolf, with four hairy legs following behind the army, and he turned his head to look around with a spirit that seemed to be able to carry out his task without the urging of his master.
So its owner can do whatever he wants, both when attacking and in front of him.
For the words of the big-mouthed orc, the companion split his mouth, and the fangs went up and down, "Of course, because he is the leader." ”
"You can't say that, the leader is also very powerful before he becomes the leader!"
The other orcs took over, looking at Elba Ironhoof, who was at the front with a bow and aiming, with adoring eyes.
"So he was able to be the leader. ”
In this regard, the big-mouthed orcs have a different opinion: "Godard of the Dragon Eagle tribe was not very powerful before he became the leader, didn't he also become the leader." ”
This sentence aroused the indignation of one of the orcs among the soldiers, and he roared angrily: "That's because his lowly beast mother is very powerful, and she poisoned it by insidious means before the competition, and naturally no one can beat Godard's damn wild seed!"
He seemed to empathize, as he was one of the Orcs of the Dragonhawk Tribe who had fled to Ironhoof, and he still remembered what had happened.
Because of this, he was immediately hammered with a fist!
"Bump!"
At some point, an old orc who didn't look very young came to the orc, punched him to the ground, and then said with a low roar: "Don't talk about Dragon Eagle, you are now from the Iron Hoof Tribe. ”
was knocked to the ground, but the orc did not have the idea of fighting back, but was depressed, his eyes were dark, and Nuno nodded, and honestly turned over to a wolf.
The old orc shook his head when he saw this, and turned his head away from him, but he had just turned his head when he was approached by a sudden golden arrow!
"Hah!"
Before he could let out a roar of rage, the old orc was immediately pierced through the chamber by a sharp arrow, and then the remaining momentum penetrated three orcs in succession before he stopped.
This attack caused a commotion among the orcs, because in the face of Elba Ironhoof and a group of marksmen, the boat seemed to be completely powerless to fight back, and was still able to organize an attack at this time?
The orcs howled angrily, and several orcs couldn't help but pick up their bows and arrows and shoot with their bows, although they didn't hit the target because of their strength, they didn't seem to be able to hide the anger in their hearts.
Elba Ironhoof, as the leader, didn't react much to this, as he was concentrating on his aim and shooting.
Elba Ironhoof's archery skills were much inferior to the other combat skills he had learned, but even then he was much better than most orcs.
He has a lot of strength, every shot can bring a burst of noise, and at the same time, his aim is also very strong, and every attack can shoot a small boat drifting in the river in the distance, not because he has a unique vision, but every time he aims, it takes a long time.
Not fast, but ruthless and accurate!
This is the style of Elba Iron Hoof archery.
At this time, this infrequent shooting made Brother Andrew feel a little out of the way!
An arrow pierced with a buzzing sound, and with a pop it pierced the deck on the side of the boat, and Andrew, who was cowering behind his shield, dodged and then cursed:
"Damn, why is this orc so powerful!"
The shield in his hand didn't make him look very organized, he seemed to be very embarrassed, hiding behind the shield and not daring to show his head at all, because of Elba's slow but extremely accurate arrows, and because of the high frequency of arrows of other orc shooters!
The arrows kept flying around and even overhead, endlessly, and the orc shooters on the shore didn't seem to want to let them breathe, and took turns shooting continuously, although the accuracy was not good due to the distance and the mobility of the boat, but it was enough for Andrew not to dare to show from behind the shield.
Andrei, who had just fought back, also put up his shield in front of him at this time, and he spat at the river with hatred, shouting: "If it weren't for this orc, we wouldn't be so embarrassed." ”
"Hell, why did you attract orcs of this level?"
Andrew could not respond to his question because he did not know as to the others.... The father and son of Amis cowered motionless behind the shield, looking like two dead men, but from the shield that shook from time to time, it was clear that the two guys were still alive.
And Allen's direction, although he looked very idiotic at this moment when he sat cross-legged and closed his eyes, but because of the shield and the care of Andrew, there was no accident, but it hurt the two brothers.
Not only do you have to protect yourself and think about how to fight back, but you also need to take care of him.
From time to time, the shield crackled from the impact of arrows, and every now and then, a burst of noise suddenly appeared, sometimes it would pounce into the air, and sometimes it would hit the shield or even the boat!
It's good to say that the impact on the shield is specially made, and it has an obvious defensive effect on the destructive power of the orcs, so except for the force that caused the Andrew brothers to stumble from time to time, it can barely be defended.
But when the arrow hits the boat, the impact is greater.
Because of the simple material and no defense, the side of the boat facing the orcs at this time has been filled with feather arrows with wooden and iron heads, and most of the arrows are just inserted like that, which does not bring much damage to the ship, but this does not mean that the boat is unscathed.
Three huge holes have appeared on the side of the boat at some point, the most dangerous is the hole at the bottom, the sawdust turned out, close to the bottom of the boat, the churning river water poured into the boat from time to time along the hole, Andrew casually found a package to block it, but this is only a symptom of the cure. If there is no other way, this hole will only increase!
"This damn light!"
"This damn orc!"
"This shitty shaman!"
The two brothers scolded loudly, embarrassed in the face of the rain of arrows.
At this moment, they regretted that they chose to start by water, if they were by land, they could fight back in close quarters, it was impossible to be as embarrassed as now!
Although the waterway is convenient for the boat to avoid being attacked by most orcs, it also blocks the possibility of your own counterattack, and it is simply impossible to cross the turbulent and wide Black Songde River to counterattack!
The embarrassed brothers scolded for a long time, Andrew suddenly pursed his lips, and then said to his younger brother: "It's not a way to go on like this, I'll stand it, you fight back"
After that, without waiting for his younger brother to respond, he picked up the shield and stood up in a daze.
Andrei shouted, and his face darkened as he stood up and prepared to fight back.
This is not an act of death, in fact, except for the arrows sent by the orc leader, the arrows of other orcs do not cause much damage to Andrew, and the high-level plate armor on his body is not an ornament.
Only the Orc Leader's attack could threaten Andrew, for he wasn't sure if the powerful arrow was attached to it with sharp rage, concussive rage, or even some other attribute he didn't understand!
However, whether it is sharp or concussive, it is enough to make Andrew's back on his back.
It's just that they can't do anything about it now.
If you do this, there is still a glimmer of hope, if you don't do this, it won't be long before the boat can't support it.
So in the face of the brightly lit orc team on the shore, the two brothers took a deep breath and were fully prepared!
"Come on!"
Andrew tightened his shield and waited for it. Andrei began to take aim with his bow.
The atmosphere of the boat tended to freeze at this time, and the two brothers did not notice any movement behind them because they were concentrated.
At this moment, at the stern of the boat, Alan had woken up at some point, and at this time he was holding the boat with his hands, staring at the sky above his head.
"What is he doing?"
Sugi, who was peeking at his surroundings, noticed his anomaly and couldn't help but wonder in a panic. Then thinking of the identity of Master Allen, for some reason, a wave of hope actually rose!
"Young Master Allen, is there a way?"
He looked at Alan looking up at the sky with a hopeful look, and his heart was beating faster.
Nervous, anticipating, or excited?
No one paid attention to the young boatman's mental activity, and no one could see that a magical power had been brewing in Allen's mind for a long time, and suddenly burst out of his head and shot into the sky overhead!
Holding on to the side of the ship, Alan looked up at the sky, and magic burst out from his forehead like fireworks!
The magic of nothingness shone inexplicably, and the speed was so fast that it reached the sky, and then, the clouds surged!
