――――I am the dividing line――――

Endless grassland, deep night, moonlight shining on the undulating weeds of the little half-man height, the breeze blowing on Taruo's shocked face. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Taruo stood on the grass, wearing a brown robe, holding a sandalwood staff in his left hand and a sword hanging from his waist.

"This is ......"

"You guessed it right, it's another world." Ling Feng's voice came, "This is the power of the big brother of the system." ”

Ling Feng was quite shocked in her heart, even though she had lost her physical body, she still had a sense - the spatial teleportation of the system did not cause any fluctuations, even she could not use the power of the Law God level during the full strength period, the level of the system was unimaginably high.

"The mission is about to start in three minutes."

"I don't recognize you as a warrior."

Taruo followed the voice, and a weather-beaten guard suddenly entered his field of vision. Beneath the earthy cloak was dark leather armor covered with sword scratches, a wooden scabbard dangling from the left waist, and the inornate handle was wrapped in cloth and stained with dirt.

Taruo was a little dazed at the moment, what was the situation now?

"Are we going to fight?"

Taruo opened his mouth, and a murderous atmosphere shot out from the other party's brown eyes: "Listen to my orders, otherwise I will even question whether you are a mage or not."

“…… I know. ”

Taruo looked to the other side of the grassland, on the horizon where heaven and earth met, dozens of dark shadows were rapidly magnifying - orc cavalry (1s).

Taruo's eyes widened, the enemies of the mission were the strange creatures that were approaching—they looked like humans, but with hideous muscles, green skin, and yellow spots of large teeth protruding from their mouths. They wore horned helmets on their heads, leather armor, and long rusty knives in their hands, and the riding beasts beneath them resembled a giant lizard, and it was clear at a glance that they were not good creatures.

"These are the enemies...... Ling Feng said, "Taruo, don't be nervous. The estimated engagement time is 2 minutes and 40 seconds. ”

Reedes looked at the orc cavalry, drew his saber, and waved his left hand: "Ready!"

The two guards drew their bows and arrows, and aimed at the rushing orcs.

There were only forty guards at the outpost, and the only ones in the legal profession were Taro and another priest, and these things needed to be well controlled.

"Put a few flame arrows in a moment......" Ling Feng prompted.

Reedes commanded, pointing to the green-skinned orcs that were getting closer and closer to the stronger-looking ones.

"Thirty seconds of engagement is expected."

Taruo swallowed his saliva and chanted in a low voice, "Flame Arrow!"

The elemental flame jumped, wrapping around his sandalwood staff, before gathering into a bolt of fire.

"Put!" Reeds swung his sword, and Taruo noticed an earthy mist covering his sword, emitting a faint glow.

The orc howled and raised his steel knife in his hand. The crimson streamer slammed into the opponent's head, ripping the orc cavalry off the back of the riding beast!

"Roar!" The death of his compatriots did not frighten the orcs, but aroused their blood, and they rushed into the guards with red eyes.

The next moment, steaming blood spilled on the meadow - human and orc, mingling, and the pungent smell of fishy food poured into Taruo's nostrils, but he didn't have time to be disgusted, because three orc cavalry were killing him!

"Flame Arrow!"

The second fire arrow hit the chest of the orc cavalry who rushed to the front, and the molten iron armor was cooled by the blood gushing out, and the orc's massive body slid off the horseman's body.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the remaining two orc cavalry rushed in front of Taruo, their sharp blades reflecting the red light of the rising sun, and slashing down with unstoppable momentum.

Taruo felt like her mind was blank and she couldn't even breathe.

"Hey!"

Taruo felt like he had been shoved, the first steel knife almost slicing down his scalp, but the second time he wasn't so lucky. The pain burned from his waist all the way to his brain, and he felt as if his life was spilling from the wound bit by bit, and time almost stopped.

……？

Taruo rolled to the ground, feeling the earth tremble, the warriors roaring, the swords clashing. A hot, viscous liquid was poured on his back, and two figures collapsed beside Taruo.

He turned his head almost subconsciously, and a human warrior and an orc were entangled, and the orc held the human down with his strong physical prowess, and Taruo almost thought he was hallucinating—he could hear bones bending and even breaking.

"Taruo!"

It took another two or three seconds for his brain to pick up this message, and at that moment, a noisy noise exploded in his ears!

"You. . . He. Mother. What are you doing!? Reeds' voice came, "Quick! ”

"Fireball!" Taruo endured the discomfort in his heart and the stinging pain in his waist, and aimed a shot at the orc's head. After a flash of fire and explosion, the corpse, which had half of its head left, twitched a few times and let go of the warrior in his hand.

Taruo looked around, and the battle continued.

"Roar!"

Before he had time to think, several more orc cavalry rushed over, and Taruo endured the pain of his wound, and the flames gathered on the staff, and one fireball after another flew out.

An orc was torn off the beast by the fireball, but he still screamed and rushed to Taruo's side, Taruo was too late to release the spell, so he drew the long sword at his waist, and the blade of the sword left an afterimage like a poisonous snake, and went straight to the throat of the opponent.

The orcs didn't seem to expect the mage in front of him to give up his professional advantage so resolutely, and the hasty evasion didn't work at all, and the long sword easily stabbed into the neck, stabbing the cervical vertebrae, and destroying the opponent's life.

Taruo drew his sword and rolled to the side in great embarrassment, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the hideous face of an orc, and the steel knife slashed down with the sound of the wind.

Taruo didn't have time to dodge, so he had to raise his long sword to block it. At the moment when the swords intersected, Taruo only felt as if he had been hit by a car traveling at 80 kilometers per hour, and his bones let out a scream under such heavy pressure. Then Taruo felt that his body no longer belonged to him, and flew out like a cloud.

The orc did not hide his desire to kill, and walked with heavy steps.

Half-kneeling on the ground, Taruo felt his right arm completely unconscious, and it swayed strangely—as if it had been dislocated, and the staff in his other hand was as missing as the sword.

"Roar!" The orcs rushed over!

"Fireball!" Taruo struggled to recite the incantation.

The crimson fire is rising!
