Chapter Sixty-Eight: First Sight of the Orcs

Despite their reluctance, the Frost Grass was taken away by Burton, and Don and the others had no choice but to end the adventure and return to the camp on the edge of the Horn Forest.

First, their supplies have been depleted, and it will take more time and energy to continue venturing deep into the forest.

Second, they have been out for a while, and the mercenaries below also want to return, and the most important reason is that winter has arrived, and once it snows heavily, the environment in the Horn Forest will become very harsh.

So Don and the others packed their belongings overnight and started to return.

Early the next morning, Tang En and the others walked all night and were about to build a camp to rest, but they ran into Bernie of the Huya Mercenary Group.

Bernie looked embarrassed and immediately walked over to Donn's camp. In a conversation, Tang En had already learned about the situation of the Huya Mercenary Group.

Bernie had bad luck and were separated from Donn and the others when they were separated by two more lions.

Although the level of the lion is only level eight, this ferocious flying beast is very difficult to deal with. Although the main team members of Huya saved their lives, they lost more than two dozen ordinary mercenaries.

This time to venture deep into the Oxhorn Forest, the Huya mercenary group gained very little, but the loss of personnel was relatively large. Not only did more than 30 ordinary mercenaries die, but also the professional Luo Erdeng was killed in battle.

Without a big catch, this is undoubtedly a failed adventure.

Soon, Xia Zuo, the head of the Huya Regiment, and others also followed. Seeing Tang En and the others, Xia Zuo was also very happy.

Yesterday they were attacked by a lion, and if it weren't for their decisive action, their losses would have been even greater.

Now that winter is about to begin, the predation of Warcraft will become more and more frequent, and once they encounter dangerous Warcraft, the adventurous mercenaries will suffer losses.

The Huya Mercenary Group has decided to return and put an end to this terrible adventure. Xia Zuo was very happy to meet Tang En and the others, and hoped to take care of each other with Tang En and the others and return together.

Huya's reputation is very good, and Xia Zuo's character Tang En is also well understood. Everyone walked together, and the safety on the way back would be higher, so Tang En and the others readily agreed.

The living habits of Warcraft are similar to those of humans, most of them hunt during the day, and only a few Warcraft like to be active at night. Although the march at night is harder, it is actually safer than during the day.

After five days of marching, Tang and his team finally walked out of the depths of the Horn Forest and entered the periphery of the forest.

In another day, Don and the others will part ways with the Huya Mercenary Regiment, Tang En and the others will return to the camp in the Oxhorn Forest, and Xia Zuo will enter the Emerald City.

Along the way, Xia Zuo's conversation with Don was very agreeable, and at Don's suggestion, Xia Zuo had decided to buy Don and their new goods in the Emerald City.

Now that Todak has returned, Donn's shop in the Emerald City has lost its support. Without powerful people, this kind of lucrative store simply can't be opened.

The wind is howling, the sky is snowing, and winter is finally here.

Because the Oxhorn Forest is blessed by the goddess of ice and snow, there is no shortage of snowfall. Especially in winter, heavy snowfall often exceeds one meter in a few days at a time.

Tang En and the others looked at the huge snowflakes in the sky, and couldn't help but be glad that they had returned safely. If you continue to venture deep in the forest, I don't know how much difficulty it will increase when you encounter this heavy snowfall.

The temperature wasn't cold when the snow just fell.

When the snow falls, the temperature drops sharply when the sun melts and the snow falls.

So even though the snow was falling, Don and the others did not rest, but accelerated their pace, hoping to rush back to the camp before the snow stopped.

Tang En and the others braved the heavy snow to hurry, and were about to break up with Xia Zuo and them in the middle of the night, when they saw golden lights coming out of front of them.

The howls of wild beasts, the roars of rage, mixed with strange voices that they don't understand, came from afar.

As a human who lives in the northern frontier all year round, their faces change almost immediately, it is the voice of the orcs.

"There are orcs nearby, what should I do?" Xia Zuo asked with a pale face.

Orcs are the greatest enemies of humanity in the North, invading the back frontier of the Hadma Empire every year.

Nestled in the six provinces of the Northern Regions, they experience an orc invasion every year.

Every person in the north has formed a blood feud with the orcs.

For the brutal race of orcs, any northern Xinjiang person will hate them from the bottom of his heart, and he will not hesitate to attack once he has the opportunity.

"It's Bernie, and I feel the power of the Ice Goddess. Lucia looked ahead and said eagerly.

"Let's go, go to the front, take care of your people, if we can spare our hands, we will give you spell support. Tang En glanced at Xia Zuo and said solemnly.

Don and the others rushed to the edge of the battlefield in a few moments.

I saw chaos ahead, and more than three hundred orcs were besieging the three Burtons.

Among them, Burton was at the front, protecting the two bronze priests behind him. One of the two priests is a fifth-level professional, and the other is only third-level.

They had already applied two first-level divine powers in a row to bless Burton's knight's spear, making Burton's strength even stronger.

Every attack of the spear can kill an orc, but these orcs are still not afraid of death, and continue to launch attacks again and again, in a vain attempt to consume Burton's physical strength and spell slots.

In the orc team, there are actually three silver-level professionals, and one of them is very high-level, estimated to have exceeded level ten.

This orc warrior is not afraid of Burton in terms of strength, and every hard fight can achieve an equal score.

The other silver-level orc, an eighth-level heavy shieldman, wore four layers of thick iron armor and followed the warrior's flank.

Once the orc warrior is overwhelmed, he accurately blocks Bernie's attack. Used to protect powerful orcs.

There was only one ninth-level orc shaman left, standing in the distance and constantly using various negative spells, consuming Burton's spell slots.

In addition to the three Silver Professionals, there were more than a dozen bronze-level orcs surrounding him, launching round after round of attacks on the priest behind Burton, hoping to distract Burton.

On the battlefield, there were also Tang En's acquaintances, none other than Bazel and others from the Iron Fire Mercenary Regiment.

Bazel's attitude was a little strange, and instead of supporting Burton, who was also a human, he launched a bloody purge of his own mercenaries.

Bazel and Sissel used a series of brutal tactics to kill two fellow professionals.

Just as they were about to kill their opponents, Don and Xia Zuo appeared on the battlefield.
