"Ogre ?!!!"

This is not enough psychological, and Fox Lee, who has not seen such a powerful, hideous monster, recognizes the screams of the ogre, which is understandably reckless.

- Provided that these people of understanding were not present and did not stand beside Fox Lean, who had just made a sound, and watched the hideous-faced ogre look at him with murderous, bloodthirsty eyes after hearing Fox Lean's screams.

Anyway, when the knights and squires of the Rien family who were standing next to Fox Lane saw the ogre's gaze looking at them and revealing a fierce light, they all felt the urge to strangle this reckless guy next to them to death.

Of course, this is just a fleeting and impossible idea in everyone's mind!

"Prepare to retreat! Don't provoke this ogre!!"

In contrast, the knight of the Lane family, who was responsible for guarding Fox Lane during the autumn hunt, watched the ogre be vigilant of the other party's movements, and loudly gave the order to retreat to the people behind him.

After all, no matter how you look at it, now in a place like the woods and without the enchanted knight armor and war horse on him, it is not the time for him to "talk" with a lone ogre with a sword.

Especially when there is also a high-profile drag guy like Fox Lean on the scene!

Listening to the order of the leading knight, the other ten squires all nodded silently and then began to act, except for a few squires who were armed with crossbows and bows and arrows and were good at long-range attacks, staring at the ogre and preparing to cooperate with the leading knight at any time to contain each other, the other squires all protected the guy Fox Lean and left towards the edge of the woods.

The abacus of this knight of the Baron Lane family is actually very simple, as a full-fledged knight, although he is not afraid of a lone ogre, but the problem is obviously not a good time to show his own bravery at this time, not to mention that although the ogre has a single situation, most ogres are generally at least five or more small tribes

"Wounded ogre? Was it just an accident?"

Looking at the ogre with only a piece of animal skin around his waist, and holding the hilt of the enchanted longsword at his waist, the official knight of the Baron Lenn family, El couldn't help but think in his own mind, after seeing the huge wound on the ogre's chest that seemed to have been torn apart by some fierce beast with its claws, which had not yet healed completely.

In this world, although resources are very important, the official knight who can become a retainer of the baron family is generally not a person with a stupid brain - if the real brain is too stupid, it is estimated that it will be difficult to survive to the time when he breaks through the gray iron rank and becomes a full knight of the red bronze rank in the previous battles!

Al, who has participated in several autumn hunts, knows very well that the autumn hunting ground is not a random place, and if Viscount Thor does not want to be saddled with the name of murdering the descendants of nobles, the place where an extremely dangerous monster like the ogre is entrenched will not be used as a hunting ground for those noble teenagers to carry out autumn hunting at all.

So the question is, how did this ogre come about?

After thinking about his current approximate location and the unhealed injuries on the ogre's body, the vigilant El Knight got an answer in his mind that was roughly close to the truth.

"Roar!! However, the ogre obviously didn't know what the "little bits" on the other side of him were thinking, and after looking at the human warriors who seemed to smell of tempting food for a few seconds, the ogre who began to drool roared angrily, and then began to wave the huge wooden stick in his hand and rushed madly towards the El Knights and his party.

"Spread out! Start fighting!"

After seeing the ogre's actions, even if he was not very happy to engage in such a pointless battle, the El Knight, who was unable to negotiate with the opponent who intended to turn you into food, let go and simply gave the battle order.

"Whoosh-whoosh-"

"Collapse-collapse-"

In fact, when the El Knight had just given the order, several squires armed with crossbows and short bows had already pulled the trigger or released the bowstring in their hands. Several crossbow and long arrows flew through the air and flew towards the head and feet of the charging ogre, attempting to interfere with or nullify their mobility.

It should be said that a few squires who are at the peak of gray iron and experienced in combat are right to choose their targets, and if they are dealing with gnolls, goblins, and human bandits, this choice can easily allow them to obtain results. But when you see the crossbow arrows and long arrows being directly blocked by the ogre's hands, or simply piercing less than half an inch into the thick skin and then hanging on it, it becomes clear that ordinary crossbows and short bows are very difficult to damage the thick-skinned ogres!

"Whew-"

The El Knight, who also understood this, simply burst out and greeted him with a fighting spirit - he didn't think about relying on just a few gray iron rank subordinates to help!

After the El Knight's body erupted with fighting energy, he was almost covered in a faint cyan light, and then his speed reached a point that made people smack, and in an instant, he swept a distance of almost fifty or sixty meters, and appeared directly in front of the charging ogre, and then bypassed and tried to attack from behind the ogre.

"Woo-" After seeing the "little dot" that gave him a sense of danger turn cyan and rush in front of him, the charging ogre suddenly swung the huge wooden stick in his hand and smashed it towards the El Knight with a sharp wind.

If El was hit head-on by the wooden stick in the ogre's hand, not to mention that he was an official knight of the same rank as the other party, even a stronger silver-rank powerhouse would have to vomit blood and pay a lot of price to survive this ferocious blow if he didn't use his fighting spirit or magic equipment to block!

However, it was obvious that El had not intended to experience the horror of the ogre's power for himself, and with the help of his own wind fighting agility and the advantage of only leather armor on his body, he leaned over and sprinted to avoid the opponent's attack, and the enchanted longsword in his hand that was similar to the shape of the aristocratic ceremonial sword (Note 1) suddenly flashed a blue light, and then directly slashed through the knee joint of the ogre's left foot, directly bringing a wound and a lot of blue blood!

"Boom—"

"Whew-whew-"

After the joint of his leg while running, the ogre's huge body fell to the ground. But for the ogre, who was strong enough to make humans on Earth feel unbelievable, the injuries to the ground and legs were not a big deal, and the creature immediately howled and tried to get up.

However, it was clear that the El Knight, who had just succeeded, would not be watching the ogre get up and recover to the point where he was quite a threat to himself.

"Zla-poof-"

After a cyan cold light came into close contact with the ogre's neck, a sound that made people feel a little tooth soreness, accompanied by blue blood that broke through the shackles of the blood vessels, gushed out directly from the broken wound that had just appeared on the ogre's neck. The battered ogre did not fall down after howling miserably, but turned his body and frantically threw his fist at the direction behind him, trying to slap the enemy who had just been able to attack him from behind.

"Peng!!! With a loud bang, a big hole was smashed out of the ground by the frenzied ogre's fist, and looking at the big pit on the ground with a diameter of more than one meter, nearly two meters, and more than a foot deep, you can imagine what kind of serious consequences this punch will have if it hits a person.

"It's good that I don't compare my strength with this monster"

The El Knight, who had just retreated with one blow, couldn't help but shrink his pupils when he saw this scene, and then sighed in his heart while secretly congratulating himself on the caution of his actions just now.

In this world, even the vitality of the monsters of the gray iron rank is quite tenacious, and if a human warrior of the same level does not pay attention when killing, they may be killed by the opponent's deathly counterattack. And for example, the ogre, not to mention the monster of the red bronze rank, even if it is pierced through the heart and vital point, it may not be able to kill the other party, on the contrary, the opponent's dying counterattack is likely to make the other party who thinks that he has won the victory go to death together!

Therefore, the El Knight is very patient, the ogre has just been hit hard by his opportunity, and now the odds are completely on his side, if you are careful, you will be able to kill this ogre without damage

"Roar!!

"Roar—roar—"

"Boom—"

However, when the El Knight was about to step forward to attack again, the roar of the ogre and the roar of heavy footsteps not far away made the originally relaxed expression of the El's face suddenly change drastically.

"It's the Ogre Tribe! Run!!" The El Knight didn't care about the injured ogre on the ground now, and after shouting to a few of the squires who were not far away, he began to call for retreat. And several squires armed with crossbows and short bows didn't say any extra nonsense after hearing the words of the El Knight, and quickly followed the El Knight, and even the bighorn reindeer that were originally caught on the ground were thrown down without bothering.

Dozens of seconds later, more than a dozen ogres, stronger and taller than the ogre on the ground, arrived with a two-headed ogre that was more than four meters tall and had two heads.

“¥@#@!!!” Seeing the ogre on the ground who was trying to get up and trying to stand up, the two-headed ogre leader with two hideous heads gave a few commands in the ogre's language, and several ogres who looked much stronger than the ogre on the ground suddenly chased in the direction where the El Knight and his party had just retreated!

(Note 1: Somewhat similar in appearance to a European-style sword, it is wider and narrower than a one-handed sword, but more agile.) )
