Chapter 1399: The Vortex of War
The Evil God Army's supplies are not abundant, and it has long been eager to have a bloodthirsty and hard-working cannon fodder subordinate.
Orcs are not bad, they are notoriously poor in food and do a lot of work, and even the logistics corps of the Western Soil camp is also in charge of female orcs, no way, during the holy war, the number of men will decline rapidly.
All kinds of orc variants were born from the horror labs of the Evil God Army, perhaps because the potions technology was immature, or maybe the war was too cruel, in short, these orcs kept dying, and only a small part survived.
Because of their bodies, it is too difficult for them to want offspring, but in tens of thousands of years, there will always be some lucky ones.
Generation after generation, it has been so difficult to reproduce, and in order to distinguish them from the orthodox orcs, they are called half-orcs, which means imperfect.
The IQ of the half-orcs is not high, just to make the commander more controllable, but there are always exceptions, no one likes to work day and night, but they are not fed and clothed, some half-orcs with high intelligence, lead the clansmen to resist and escape.
Barren, dry, and desertified, the Land of the Wanderers was once a place of exile for prisoners, which was occupied by fugitive orcs and spent generations building a fortress that took the name Glory.
Most of the human wars are for profit, these orcs are poor and fierce, and they are still stationed in such a ghost place, and no legion is willing to crusade.
It was also a good thing for the Orcs to raid humans from time to time, adding casualties to them, so they acquiesced to their existence.
The high-level orcs have always been wise, and when life can't go on, they rob adventurers, mercenary groups. At most, they harassed the logistics troops, and they have always been able to avoid the military's stationing, which is one of the reasons why the military is too lazy to take care of them, but this time, they actually snatched the dragon blood elixir as the highest reward.
"These orcs are really broken in their brains!"
Outside Fort Glory. Tens of thousands of adventurers waited quietly, not even hiding in disguise, because one of the military's air fleets was conducting air strikes.
Shuttle-shaped metal bodies fell from the bomb ports and smashed into the city like schools of tuna with a sharp whistling sound.
Boom! Boom!
Huge flames rose up, countless rubble flew wildly, and thick smoke billowed. Even from a distance, everyone could feel the shock.
"What's that?
Looking through the binoculars, looking at the stumps and broken arms that were constantly being blown up into the sky, someone asked with a pale face.
"Goblin bombs, it is said that the military procured them from Frankfurt after seeing the tactics of air raids by His Highness Downton. ”
"It looks so powerful, if you carpet bomb it again, all the people in the city will die, right?"
"The lethality is great. But it's expensive, do you know how much a goblin bomb costs? 10,000 gold coins!"
Adventurers were talking.
"Ahh In such a short time, tens of millions of dollars were lost? ”
"War is about burning money and burning people's lives, and I think the military also has the meaning of testing the power of goblin bombs and receiving data. Otherwise, it will definitely not open the way for us to bomb. ”
"I heard that the Chancellor of the Exchequer in Frankfurt was a goblin rescued by His Highness Downton back then, tsk, who would have thought it would make so much money?"
Downton, as the hottest newcomer on the surface in recent years, is still the rumored boyfriend of Sissi, although the people in the abyss have not seen him. But it's also something I've heard of, after all, there has never been such a thing as a goblin being a minister for tens of thousands of years.
"Don't talk nonsense, the Air Force is retreating, it's time for us to go. ”
The commanders of the regiment gave orders, and the troops of the Western Tu camp have always been weak, and the only few trump cards are also used as reserve corps, and they cannot be rushed out, so the task falls on the adventurers.
The naked eye can see the gaps in the city wall that have been blasted open, the ballistas, the arrow towers are all rotten, and the corpses are buried in the rubble, and there is no danger to their lives, so the adventurers are only left with the coveting of the blood of the Chaos Dragon.
Downton rode a blazing nightmare, stood on a breach, and checked the condition of the fort with a telescope, and behind him, more than two hundred adventurers.
These people are all lone rangers who have not joined the adventure group, and there are also soldiers who take advantage of the rest time to see if there is a chance to make a fortune, without exception, they all come here to hug Downton's thigh.
"Your Excellency, do we want to attack?"
Someone can't wait.
"Stupid, let others rush in and consume the strength of the orcs first. ”
There are also people who are very cunning, but after saying it, it attracts a series of ridicule.
"You're stupid, the fortress was bombed like this, the defense has already collapsed, and if you don't rush in and grab a handful now, you won't be able to drink the soup. ”
These words resonated, and some people didn't think they could grab the Chaos Dragon Blood, so they just checked it casually and made a small fortune.
"It seems that the production capacity of the underground military factory is good, otherwise it would not be sold to the military!"
Downton suddenly found that he had been away from home for a long time, and began to miss his hometown.
"Your Excellency!"
A group of people looked at Downton expectantly.
"Let's go!"
Downton shook the reins, his heel slammed into the horse's belly, and the nightmare sprinted out like an arrow off the string, leaving a burning hoof print on the ground.
The adventurers hurried to follow, and drew their weapons, wielding them vigorously, with a piercing scream coming out of their mouths.
This is a deterrent, but also a drive, so that the orcs feel their horror, and then go to pick up soft persimmons and pinch them.
Rare's arrows were fired, and the remnants of the orcs responsible for the defense of the western walls did everything in their power to stop the enemy.
The adventurers let out a laugh, the orcs are really stupid enough, to this point, they should retreat to the second line of defense, reorganize the defense, and stay now, it is simply to die.
"Look at me!"
The archers in the ranks took off their longbows and bent their bows directly on their horses.
Collapse!
The bowstring of the rhinoceros tendon trembled, and the arrow shot out, and in the blink of an eye, it was nailed into the eye socket of the orc, and the force was so great that even the skull was torn off.
Watching the corpses fall from the city, the crowd cheered loudly.
Orcs have no fear. A ballista cart was pushed out, and a flying demonic beast appeared in the air, and it began to sweep the formation.
Whoa!
The archers fired in unison, and a rain of arrows fell, shooting the three orcs operating the ballista into a hornet's nest, but it was very fast. A few more orcs rushed out and continued to operate the ballista, and when they were shot dead, the orc infantry next to them bit the knives in their hands with their teeth and began to clumsily operate the ballista.
The orcs knew that the ballista was the target of the enemy's archers, and whoever touched it would die, but they didn't back down.
"Fight for survival!"
An angry roar rang out, followed by a huge cry on the city wall. The half-orcs are on the rise.
"With phosphorus rockets!"
Before the archers could change their arrows, they saw Downton's right hand holding the whip slam to the side, followed by hundreds of demonic punches falling from the sky and crashing into the city.
Boom!
The ballista was smashed to pieces, and the splattered shards of wood shards were shot into the faces of the orcs next to them, but the screams stopped abruptly as the heavy punch smashed them to the ground.
There were also bloodied orcs struggling to get up. Then there was another bombardment of punches, looking at the corpses all over the ground. Even if they don't have a high IQ, they have stopped and don't dare to support anymore.
"Can you hit it so far?"
"What kind of martial art is this? Absolutely epic!"
"It's horrible. ”
Adventurers are amazed to watch.
Downton lifted the reins, and Nightmare leaped from the collapsed ruins into the city.
"Your Excellency Silver is mighty!"
The adventurers shouted and swarmed up, thinking that they were too wise. The true value of this thigh hug.
When we entered the city, we were full of ruins, dust on the ground, and corpses in tatters.
The bandaging orc infantry saw the intruder and immediately rushed forward with their weapons in hand.
"I'll leave it to you. ”
Downton just glanced at it. He didn't care, but rode his horse and walked slowly to see the effect of the bomb.
"It is our honor to be able to serve you!"
The adventurers shouted, and then rode their horses past Downton, drawing their weapons and fighting, for magic energy, ordinary soldiers are simply not even miscellaneous fish.
The battle was one-sided, even if they hadn't worked together before, but these people were old fritters, and a balanced team with their own duties was immediately formed.
Of course, the backbone is naturally Downton.
"Captain, the road is cleared, let's hurry up and go to the temple, shall we?"
The adventurers proposed, and they were all a little excited to see that Downton did not refuse to be called so.
Perhaps because of genes, the racial structure of the orcs is similar to that of the orcs, not only imitating the temple, but also the statue of the god of war, and the great shaman and the chief rule in the temple on weekdays, which can be said to be their most important building.
Downton suddenly turned to a street on the right, and the startled crowd hastened to follow.
In the ruins, a little orc girl of three or four years old stood, and a childish cry full of panic and helplessness floated in her ears. 、
Without even thinking about it, an adventurer was about to raise his hand and open his bow, but was stopped by his companion.
Downton rolled over and dismounted, and walked over.
Sensing the aura of these strangers, the little girl's cry became smaller, and she blinked her red and swollen eyes, looking at these people suspiciously.
"Where's your mother?"
Downton crouched in front of the little girl, her whole body covered in dust, like a mud monkey, and there were two mud sinks on her face that had been washed away by tears.
"Down there. ”
The little girl pointed to the ruins next to her, she was too young to know that these people were enemies, nor did she know that her mother, who was probably dead.
Downton took out a bag of candy and handed it to the little girl, his expression a little gloomy, because under the mirror stopped the water, it was a cold corpse.
The little girl was suspicious and didn't answer, because she had never seen such a thing, but the colorful candy paper made her very curious.
Downton peeled one off and stuffed it into the little girl's mouth, the unique aroma and sweetness of the toffee conquered the little girl's taste buds at once.
A smile bloomed, like a daisy on the prairie!
Downton smiled, rubbed the little girl's hair, and then got up to leave, he wanted to tell her to live strongly, but when the words came to his lips, he realized that he had no position to say at all. (To be continued.) )
