Volume 2 The Beginning of the Legend Chapter 11 A Battle of Unequal Strength
At this moment, the pens were littered with mutilated carcasses such as goats and domestic pigs, and blood splattered all over the walls and floor, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.
Russell noticed that the village chief and several villagers were all besieging the giant tiger nearby, and they didn't notice that a pair of scarlet pupils outside the house were salivating at a few people.
The village chief and the villagers were quite comfortable dealing with the tiger, except for the man who was supposed to have been attacked by the tiger and died at the beginning, and now the rest of the people are basically not too seriously injured.
No matter how tall this tiger is, it is nothing more than a beast without superior intelligence.
The tiger follows its instinct to survive in the wild, fearing injury and the blazing flames on the torches held by the villagers.
Therefore, the villagers, under the command of the village chief, can also hold a long pitchfork to trap this huge tiger.
Russell's arrival of course attracted the attention of the village chief who was in command in the rear, he looked at Russell with some surprise, and then roared with a solemn expression,
"Why are you here here? It's too dangerous here, you should get back to the back!"
Russell didn't have time to explain too much to the village chief at this time, he saw that the red eyes outside the house were about to go to the big hole in the house, if he didn't stop him now, I'm afraid that the villagers inside would not be able to escape to death.
Russell saw a straw fork in his hand in a hurry, and it seemed that he could only do this!
Russell grabbed the pitchfork in one hand and ran forward as he ran forward, and when he felt that his speed was enough, he threw the pitchfork in his hand as a spear with all his strength.
"Drink!"
Immediately, the pitchfork made an arc in the air, piercing precisely through the large hole in the room, and hitting the pupils that were peering into them.
Suddenly, there was a terrible howl from outside the house, and it seemed that Russell's pitchfork was a sharp weapon, and it had successfully prevented the unknown creatures outside from entering.
But before everyone could be happy, there was a crashing sound on the wall outside the house, and all that surrounded the beast pen was a wall of earth, and after just a hit, countless earth and stones fell on the wall like rain.
Russell immediately reacted, this would definitely not work, the unknown creature outside the house was very powerful, if he was allowed to break into the house.
Except for Russell, who thought he could escape from this place safely, he had no way to save the rest of the village chief and villagers.
Russell quickly thought about it while he was still safe, and made up his mind to go out and fight this enemy, in case he was defeated, Russell could also ensure that he could evacuate safely.
But now you can't let Russell go out empty-handed to engage the enemy, right? Russell carefully observed everything around him, trying to find a weapon to use in it.
At this moment, Russell noticed the only long sword inserted in the village chief's waist, he had heard Betty say that it was the only iron sword in the village, or a weapon left by the village chief when he was young when he traveled to the kingdom!
It seemed that he was going to offend the village chief next to him, Russell rushed to the village chief's side, pulled out the iron sword at his waist, and apologized to him loudly.
"Your Excellency the village chief, I'm sorry, I'll borrow your long sword first, and trouble you to stop this tiger here!"
With that, Russell went around the big hole in the house and slammed it out of the back door.
At this time, the village chief could not understand that there were enemies nearby, he was a little worried about Russell's safety, but the tiger next to him was still attacking the defense formed by the villagers, so he could only pray that Russell could return safely and command his villagers to stop the attack of the giant tiger.
By this time, Russell had already run behind the beast pen and crept close to the enemy's position behind, and it was only then that Russell vaguely saw the enemy's appearance.
What a fat monster this is! Russell had never seen such a disgusting foe.
I saw that he had brown skin, and his body was bare, except for a handful of black hair on his head, I am afraid that people would think that he had some kind of strange disease.
It was only when Russell took a closer look through the raging fire that he found that he was wearing a pair of trousers made of the skin of a beast, proving that he was still a wise creature.
Despite his large stature, Russell could tell from his thick fingers and toes that he was a humanoid, could it be that he was the orc thief that the knight had mentioned the other day?
However, Russell still couldn't discern the monster's race from the vague information, and he didn't know where his weaknesses were.
At the same time, there were many half-eaten sheep and pig carcasses around him, which were scattered all over the ground, and the scattered blood made the place a mess.
If only he had Dawn in his hands, Russell couldn't help but secretly think that if he relied on Dawn's power, this monster would not be his enemy.
So far, the monster has not found Russell's figure, and he is still angrily ramming the wall after being poked blind by Russell, and the wall is indeed about to be completely smashed open by him.
The urgency of the situation seems to be beyond further delay.
Russell took a deep breath a little nervously, his palms oozing cold sweat from the battle he hadn't seen for a long time.
At this moment, Russell's mind was quickly calculating the battle plan, and his biggest advantage for him at the moment was that the enemy had not found his trace.
That would give him a chance to sneak up, and if he took advantage of it, he might be able to inflict a heavy blow on the monster.
Russell bent down and slowly pressed his steps, gradually walking behind a large rock behind the monster, he observed his surroundings and tried to find a tool to use.
Russell saw at a glance the pitchfork that had been pulled down by the monster and then dropped to the ground, it was not too far away from himself.
It's just that the pitchfork is also not much different from the location of the monster, so it can be said that if Russell wants to go over, it will be difficult not to be discovered by the monsters around him.
This pitchfork lands on the monster's left, so Russell needs to find a way to get the monster's attention.
If he could take the pitchfork back into his hand and use it to blind him in the other eye, the monster would be much easier to deal with, and his chances of winning would be greatly improved.
Russell knows that the opportunity is fleeting, and now he can't hesitate, he has to make a choice!
Russell picked up a pebble from the ground and threw it against the wall to the monster's right.
The monster was keenly aware of the sound on the right, and he stopped hitting the wall and turned his head to look at the stone.
Golden opportunity!
Russell immediately rushed out from behind the large rock and ran in the direction of the pitchfork with all his might.
At this time, the monster's attention was still focused on the position of the stone on the right, and Russell grabbed the pitchfork without suspense.
At this moment, the monster heard a loud noise from Russell, and with a roar he stretched out his huge hand, turned his head and grabbed at Russell.
Russell had been prepared for this for a long time, and with the difference in height, he immediately bent down to avoid the capture of the monster.
Then he tilted the pitchfork in his hand upward, aimed at the monster's still intact other eye, and directly inserted it with all his might.
However, although this monster is fat, his reflexes are far beyond Russell's expectations.
Just as Pitchfork was about to poke him in the eye, the monster instinctively turned its face sideways, so Pitchfork narrowly brushed his eyes, creating a long scratch on his cheek.
And when Russell wanted to pull back the pitchfork, the monster grabbed the wooden handle of the pitchfork and tore off the pitchfork's handle with only one hand.
Russell was shocked to see this, this monster was able to act so quickly and successfully avoid his sneak attack, so that his first-mover advantage would evaporate.
It's just that Russell didn't hesitate at all, he immediately hurriedly retreated to the back, if he didn't leave here quickly, I was afraid that he would end up with this straw fork in the next second.
As he expected, it didn't take long for Russell to leave, and the monster's counterattack came immediately, and his two arms were like heavy hammers, directly smashing heavily on the ground, and even smashed a small hole in the ground.
Russell was now a few meters away from him, looking at the small pit on the ground with a little fear, if he was smashed by his arm, he should have turned into a lump of flesh on the spot!
Russell held the iron sword in his hand, bent down and stared at the ugly enemy in front of him, he was ready to continue to engage the enemy.
This monster covered the corners of his bleeding eyes, and looked at the little dwarf human in front of him angrily, but he didn't expect that the human who had just pierced one of his eyes would dare to touch it.
He almost almost poked his other eye out, which was so deceitful!
Isn't he just hungry and wants to eat a few sheep and pigs from humans! Maybe he will eat a few humans to satisfy his hunger, is it necessary to do this to struggle before he dies?
Russell was not mistaken, this monster was indeed one of the orc rogues pursued by the knights, he had been hiding in the mountains with his accomplices, but he had sneaked out of the camp because of hunger, trying to find some livestock or humans to fill his belly.
But before he could feast too long, a group of humans came running over like rats, and in order to create a longer time to eat, he had to let his cute pet tiger stop the human attack.
What made him most angry was that he was blinded by the humans in the house, and he dared to lose an eye before he died, even if it was the food he was eating immediately, which made him instinctively ignite the anger in his heart with low intelligence.
I'm so angry! The monster decided to start with this human who dared to inflict trauma on him. After grabbing him, he will definitely not kill him immediately, but will eat from his feet, so that he can feel the despair before he dies!
The monster then ran, and although his steps were not too fast, the distance he took was comparable to Russell's three steps, so he quickly closed the distance to Russell.
Russell made a big leap and dodged the monster's attack very nimbly, leaving a deep wound on his body.
But the monster simply ignored such a scar, and immediately threw a huge fist at Russell.
If you go on like this, you must not be able to hold on first! Russell used the iron sword in his hand to block a punch from the monster.
Russell looked at the much bent iron sword in his hand with his spare eyes, and made a reasonable decision very quickly.
Russell stared at the monster in front of him, looking for his weakness. Since he is also a human creature, it means that he also has weaknesses in common with humans.
It's his head and chest. Russell probed the monster's weakness while dodging the monster's attack, only to find that his chest was still covered with heavy fat, and with the crude iron sword in his hand, Russell was not sure to kill the monster in one fell swoop.
So the most important thing now is to find the right opportunity to deal a fatal blow to his head!
