Volume 2 The Beginning of the Legend Chapter 30 Finding the Traces of the Orcs

Russell was not an all-knowing man, and he could not change the current situation, so he could only watch helplessly as the soldiers in the distance continued to plague the fields.

Perhaps because Baron Albert was worried that he would not be able to reach his destination on time, the soldiers were quickly summoned back to their group by his order, and the group resumed their march and ran towards the vicinity of the village of Seth with great momentum.

What made Russell laugh was that the baron and the rest of the commanders knew how to send scouts to investigate the surrounding situation, so as not to make the army's eyes darkened, and they did not know the news of the orc thieves at all.

In order to find a guide in the mountains, the soldiers forcibly captured several farmers from the fields, and after promising a reasonable payment, these farmers could only agree to the request to lead the way for the army.

Russell had originally intended to let the villagers of Seth Village lead the way for the army, and maybe the villagers would get some benefits, but when he saw what the soldiers were doing, Russell immediately gave up this unrealistic idea. ,

In the afternoon, the Baron led the team to finally arrive near the village of Seth, for the sake of safety and ease of fighting, Baron Albert decided to settle the logistics team here first, as for the main combat force to hurry up and search in the mountains now, if they can find the camp of the orc thieves, then they may be able to return to the town tomorrow.

Sister Marlene told Russell about the order after receiving the order from the herald, and Russell couldn't help but have deep doubts about Baron Albert's military command ability, and he and the knight chiefs had repeatedly told the baron that the orcs hiding here were not easy to mess with, but he still didn't care about the continuous warnings, but wanted to annihilate the orc thieves in one go.

Russell looked at Baron Albert in the distance with confidence, and he didn't know if he did it on purpose, or if he really trusted his soldiers very much.

Russell saw that there was still some time before the army left, and they were stationed near the village of Seth again, and thought about it

It's been a long time since he's seen the village chief, and he's promised to report the good news to the village chief that the soldiers have come to annihilate the orc thieves, so he'll just take the opportunity to go back to Saith Village!

Russell spoke to Sister Marlene, and after obtaining the nun's consent, Russell hurried back to the entrance of Seth Village on a fast horse.

As soon as Russell returned to the area around the entrance of the village, he noticed that a group of people were faintly visible at the entrance of the village.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Russell rode to the nearest place, he found the village chief looking at him with a smile and a smile on crutches at the forefront.

Buddy also kept yelling in the crowd, as if trying to get Russell's attention.

Russell gradually saw many familiar faces, and when he was in the village the other day, he had been taken care of by the villagers.

Russell rode his horse to the front of the villagers, got off his horse and walked to the village chief's side.

The villagers all smiled plainly, as if they had seen a village wanderer return to the village, and Russell's heart couldn't help but be a little touched when he saw their smiles.

The bold children in the village ran to Russell's side excitedly when they saw the brand-new armor on Russell's body and the war horses on the side, and curiously observed Russell's armor, and some of the bold children even stretched out their hands to touch the armor.

"Don't mess around!" the village chief's reprimand frightened the children and returned to their parents, but their clear eyes were still peeking at Russell, revealing their very strong curiosity.

Russell opened his mouth and said, "Village Chief, how do you know that I will come back? Shouldn't this be the time for everyone to plow the land?"

The village chief replied with a smile: "Coincidentally, just now a young man in the village came back from the next village, and happened to see the army of the heavily armed baron, he hurriedly came back and told us about it, I thought about it, was it Russell that you successfully brought the soldiers over, so I immediately arranged for everyone to come here and wait for your arrival." ”

Russell nodded and said, "You can rest assured that I successfully completed the task you gave me from the village chief, persuaded Baron Albert, and asked him to send soldiers to protect the village!"

The village chief touched his beard with relief and sighed: "Russell, you are really our savior, although the things you said are easy, but I still know that the process of this matter is indeed very difficult, on behalf of all the villagers, thank you!"

After speaking, the village chief actually bent down slightly towards Russell to express his gratitude.

Russell hurriedly supported the weak village chief and said, "You really don't need to thank me so much, if it weren't for the help of many people, I wouldn't be able to convince the baron, and I wouldn't be able to reply to you." ”

After a moment of confusion, the village chief finally did not want to thank Russell, when two couples came out of the crowd and looked at Russell timidly, as if he had something to ask Russell.

Russell turned his head to look, only to find that the two were Betty's parents, and they looked at him hopefully to ask about their daughter, but they didn't dare to ask because they were around the village chief.

When the village chief saw Betty's parents, he hurriedly beckoned and said, "You two hurry up, haven't you been talking about little Betty's situation? Now that Russell is here, you should hurry up and ask him!"

Betty's parents hurriedly walked in front of Russell's eyes when they heard this, and at this time, Russell's clothes were completely different from before, and the weapons and armor on his body were somewhat like those of nobles, which made them feel afraid.

Betty's father hesitated for a moment, but then made up his mind and asked, "Russell, Lord Russell, I wonder how Betty is doing, can she still eat enough in the church?"

Russell saw Betty's father's expectant and fearful eyes, and felt a little emotional, although Betty's father was very afraid of his current identity, but for the sake of his daughter, he still mustered up the courage to ask about his daughter's condition, it is really selfless fatherly love and maternal love!

Russell looked at Betty's father and said, "Betty lives well in the church, she has high qualifications in the church, so people are very good to her, she eats well and sleeps well, you don't have to worry, Betty said that when she learns to write, she will write to you to see it!"

Betty's parents suddenly showed a happy look, hugged each other and smiled, "It's so good!"

"Have you heard that the church still teaches Betty to write!"

"Alas, I just hope Betty can grow up in peace!"

Russell's eyes couldn't help but be a little rosy when he heard Betty's parents talking, and he could also empathize.

Although Russell's parents are gone, he can still remember how much his parents loved and cared for him.

Seeing that Betty's parents could no longer continue to talk to Russell, the village chief walked to Russell's side with a smile and invited him back to the village.

"Russell, you finally came back once, do you want to go back to the village to rest?"

Russell also wanted to return to the village at this time to reminisce about the past, but now that the baron's army was about to depart, he had no time to continue to spend here.

"I'm very sorry, village chief, but the baron's army will be entering the mountains in a moment, and I've only come here to report to you, so I beg your pardon for not being able to rest when I return to the village. ”

The village chief said earnestly: "I know that you must fight with the army, and I will not try in vain to persuade you, I still wish you to destroy the orcs in the mountains and return them safely!"

"Thank you for the village chief's wishes!" It was already early, Russell could hear the faint movement of the army in the distance, it seemed that the army was about to leave in a moment, and he had to leave Seth Village in a hurry.

Russell immediately turned on his horse, and he looked back at the kind villagers and waved goodbye, "Goodbye, I'll come back to see you!"

Under the sincere gaze of the villagers, Russell rode away from the village on his horse.

"Russell, you have to take good care of yourself!" said to himself as the village chief looked at Russell's departing back on crutches.

After a while, Russell returned to the camp of the army, and Sister Marlene was anxiously waiting for Russell, and when she saw that Russell had finally returned, she hurried to his side and said, "You have been there for too long, the army is about to leave, you should also hurry up and prepare, our team will also set off with the army!"

Russell immediately finished arranging his equipment, and then the team of the church gathered around Sister Marlene, and Mother Marlene herself was firmly guarded in the center, and they followed closely behind the baron's army, and walked towards the mountains.

The scouts had already set out an hour before, and they were constantly going back and forth to the baron's army to report the situation ahead, and according to the scouts' report, the mountains ahead were still very safe.

The baron and his generals naturally trusted the battle reports from the front, in their eyes, this group of orc thieves hidden in the mountains were just ordinary thieves, and leading their troops to the expedition was like going out on an outing, and they could easily annihilate the orcs.

So they didn't pay much attention to the battle, but got together on horseback and talked about how to ask the royal family for credit after the war.

The leading Baron Albert and the generals have become like this, and the discipline of the soldiers below has become even more lax. Except for the elite soldiers who followed the baron, the order was not bad, the rest of the ordinary soldiers and even the newly recruited militia were very lax, and the soldiers who walked up happily sang songs.

The cacophony of the entire team was heard far away, even a little farther than the scout's range.

Russell soon realized that something was wrong, that such a lively march had nothing to do with concealment, and perhaps the orcs had discovered the baron's army before the scouts had discovered the enemy.

However, Russell's soft-spoken body and Sister Marlene told him that her request to Baron Albert would not be heeded, so Russell could only force his worries and pray that the orcs would not find out about the army.

At this time, the army did not notice that in the forests on both sides, there were a pair of glowing eyes hidden, he was observing the situation of the army, and after seeing the true number of the army, his heart suddenly panicked.

It seems that I still have to go back and report the information to the leader, the human race actually sent so many soldiers, it seems that they are coming for them, fortunately I sneaked out today, otherwise I would not have been able to find out the whereabouts of the human race.

I don't know who the leader of this team is? What an idiot. Two miles away, he heard the noise of humans, and it turned out that it was really an army that had come to attack the camp.

By the time the human army had reached the end, the orcs had already reconnoitred the number of troops, and at this time he suddenly saw a specially dressed team.

The orc looked curiously, but was horrified to find that a man with a long sword suddenly turned his head to look at him.

Frightened, he didn't dare to stay where he was, and immediately ran away towards the camp in the distance.
