Chapter XXXVII: Guardian of the King

It is estimated that the blood cave orcs did not expect to encounter such stubborn resistance in the town they had occupied, and the militia blocked them at the gate of the courtyard through the wall, unable to move forward.

The orcs can't push the stone wall like pushing open the gate, especially a knight who seems to be unable to cut down no matter what, standing in the middle of the gate, countless orcs who want to cross him have been hit by his backhand sword or a shield, and now the orcs are caught in the retreat of the reluctance, but if they don't retreat, there may be greater losses

Turning the sword body horizontally, Qiu Chen blocked the hand axes cut down by the four orcs at the same time, and then suddenly lifted it, and when they were unstable and unbalanced, the heavy sword slashed the orc in front of him in half.

I have to say that Qiuchen now understands why almost all the paladins in the later alliances are the leading commanders, like Boval and Tulayan. Although the blessing of the Holy Light on individual abilities is not as strong as that of the Death Knight, the Holy Light can collectively bless a group of people around the Holy Knight, which can make the individual strength increase slightly, and can also stabilize people's hearts from the collapse of the army's heart, this kind of quiet power is extremely important on the battlefield, which is why the Scarlet Crusader can hold out for eight years in the plague land where the undead and monsters are rampant

Therefore, Qiu Chen now needs the power of the light of dawn in his body even more, even if he can kill all the orcs with the power of death alone, the humans here have already died before this, and he didn't come to the town hall to kill the orcs

The power of the Holy Light, which had not been used for a long time, was infused into the Ash Bringer, and this weapon, which was originally the Holy Sword, was even more invincible, "Kick them out!" ”

Qiu Chen swung his shield and struck an orc in front of him in the jaw, stabbed his sword into its chest, and then kicked the dying orc out with another kick, hitting an orc that was rushing behind him and causing him to lose his balance

The group of orcs with red eyes didn't seem to pay attention to these dozens of militiamen at first, and rushed to the town hall in groups of three or five, until a pile of orc corpses was piled up at the door, their crazy heads began to calm down, and they began to assemble not far from the town hall, and at this time, Thomas found him

"My lord, we found a heavy crossbow in the weapons in the basement"

"Heavy crossbow?" Qiuchen raised his head and looked at the orcs not far away, "Bring the heavy crossbow to the bell tower, and help the archers suppress the spear-throwing orcs when the orcs attack"

"Yes, Your Excellency," Thomas turned and ran back with the two men in the guard who were still alive, and only they, the active soldiers, would operate these things

It didn't take long for a horn like the roar of a beast sounded, and the official attack of the orcs began

"Archer, rocket salvo!" Qiuchen swung his heavy sword, and a round of ignited arrows shot out. The vitality of orcs is much stronger than that of humans, and some orcs can even charge against the attacks of archers. ”

As soon as Qiu Chen's words fell, the heavy crossbow arrow shot at the orc with a breaking sound, and after penetrating the first orc, it shot the orc behind it with inertia, and finally stopped after hitting the third orc

By the time the orcs rushed to the gate, the heavy crossbows and bows and arrows had been placed in more than a dozen orcs, and with the support of long-range firepower, the humans only paid the price of six injuries to repel the orcs' attacks, and for a while, the morale of the humans was greatly increased

"Bring the wounded back" Qiu Chen pulled the ash messenger out of the orc's corpse, the blood on the sword was quickly evaporated by the scorching holy light, he now has a feeling of a trumpet, the orcs in front of him basically have no way to block his strength, but they are strong enemies to these militiamen, but the real world does not exist after the death of the running corpse "Tell the archers to replenish ammunition, we can't stay in this turtle shell all the time......"

"Look over there!" I don't know who shouted, and it instantly attracted the attention of everyone present. Not far away, a orc that seemed to have condensed into blood slowly rose into the air, and among the orcs, a huge orc with a height of more than four meters walked out, and scarlet blood lines traveled on his skin

"What kind of monster is this......?" the militia in front of him opened his mouth wide and looked at the giant orc walking step by step in horror. The Blood Cave Clan is using the Blood Ritual to create brute soldiers, no wonder they will slaughter aimlessly, they are collecting blood

Sou!

The heavy crossbow on the bell tower shot an arrow at the barbarian, and the barbarian didn't dodge or dodge the arrow just hit it in the chest, but the crossbow arrow that could penetrate the three orcs was only an arrow piercing the barbarian's body, and the barbarian's strong muscles directly stuck the crossbow arrow!

The brute broke off the arrow stuck in his body, picked up a boulder from the side of the road and threw it at the bell tower, only to hear a bang, the boulder smashed into the bell tower, and a scream rang out from the upper floor, and the soldier who operated the heavy crossbow fell down with the gravel

Silent fear began to spread among the humans, and Qiu Chen could feel it in their hearts. Ever since he could use the evil energy, he was able to feel the emotional changes in the human heart, which was much more accurate than the living to perceive the heartbeat and breathing

Watching the militia around him retreat with the barbarians, Qiu Chen sighed helplessly, morale is really elusive

With a wave of the sword in his hand, Qiu Chen rushed towards the brute. Seeing a human running over with no effort, the brute stretched out his hand to grab him, but the next moment, he was surprised to find that his hand was no longer numerous

Then, his left side of his body went limp, and when he came back to his senses, his vision was to the sky

The brute's blood-red eyes widened to see what was happening, and in its eyes the weak human jumped onto its chest, and the slender tip of the sword grew larger and larger in its eyes until its consciousness was completely gone

The audience fell silent for a while, and a human being of less than two meters killed a brute who was more than four meters tall, and between the lightning and flint, a brute who could smash the bell tower with a boulder died like this......

For a while, the situation on both sides turned over in an instant, Qiu Chen dragged his sword and walked towards the orc step by step, the two strong orcs glanced at each other, and rushed up with a roar

The two orcs rushed towards Qiuchen from the left and right, Qiuchen didn't care about the right side, and shouted and slashed at the orc on the left, and before the orc could react, the Ash Messenger had already slashed through its abdomen. Then Qiuchen turned his footsteps, dodging the slash of the orc on the right, and with a flick of his wrist, the giant sword swept, and the hideous orc's head flew out upside down

A cheer erupted among the human militia, and the remaining orcs withdrew into the reddish mist

"Listen, everyone, the orcs have retreated temporarily, at least now they won't come again" Qiuchen shouted to the remaining militia "Pack up the wounded, Thomas, take the civilians, we are ready to retreat"

"Obey the order, sir!" Thomas saluted with his remaining hand, and one of his arms was completely broken when he fell from the bell tower, but he was lucky compared to the two colleagues who were stoned to death

"Everyone" looked at the militia gathered together, looking at their eyes full of hope, Qiu Chen slapped his shield, "A warrior has only experienced death once in his life, while a coward has experienced it a million times!" Follow me, we're in Stormwind! ”
