Volume 2 The Beginning of the Legend Chapter 13 Aid and the Origin of the Orcs
Russell watched the orcs around him finally swallow his breath, the exhaustion of his body surged up like a tide, Russell sat on the ground, and at the same time checked the injuries caused by the sneak attack of the orcs just now.
Overall, Russell's injuries were not very serious.
Except for the wound on his waist, the rest of the injuries were basically just abrasions, except that the village chief's very valuable clothes were destroyed by stones.
"Tsk, this wound really hurts!"
Russell looked down at the wound on his waist, wanting to find out what was going on.
It's a little weird!
Russell was surprised to find that the wound on his waist was almost bleeding away, but this recovery speed was too fast, right?
The reason why Russell felt a little suspicious was because he had a dangerous battle just now, so Russell's body had been in vigorous exercise, how could the waist wound recover so quickly!
Could it be because?
A conjecture arose in Russell's mind, but this conjecture was not yet mature, and Russell needed to experiment several times to verify the correctness of the conjecture.
In the few minutes that Russell was thinking, his injuries healed a lot, except for the overwork of his body, Russell's external injuries had almost recovered.
Now is the time to examine the bodies of these two orcs.
Russell looked at the corpses of the dead orcs with an indifferent expression, he may have some reason to avenge his brother, but this is by no means an excuse for him to harm these innocent villagers, they are essentially a group of vicious thieves who kill people without blinking.
Russell looked at the monster's fat body and was about to check the items on their bodies, but heard the sound of iron armor stomping stones behind him.
After Russell heard this strange sound, he immediately felt a little creepy all over his body.
Could it be that the enemy who has come to support the orcs? In his current situation, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with this group of enemies.
Russell hurriedly turned around, holding the broken iron sword in his hand, waiting for the arrival of the unknown comer.
The footsteps are getting closer and closer, and the identity of the other party is gradually becoming clear.
Finally, Russell couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the people coming.
It turned out that the people who came here were the cathar knights who had talked to Russell a few days ago, and the sound just now was made by their armor stepping on a stone.
This group of triage apologists was also shocked when they saw Russell, who was waiting for him.
From afar, their party saw the village lit with fire, and the sight of the fire made the knights think that the orc thieves were robbing the village, so they hurried to the place.
Unexpectedly, these orcs died at the hands of an ordinary person, which really impressed them.
Because Russell had made a very deep impression on the knights in previous discussions, the knights recognized Russell at a glance.
"Hey, Russell, do you remember us, we're the knights who came to your aid!"
The chief knight beckoned to Russell who was nearby, hoping that Russell would not be too nervous and misunderstand their intentions.
"I remember you, it's okay here, you can come here!"
At this time, Russell replied loudly, he waited for reinforcements, and finally could rest at ease.
Russell completely relaxed his guard, and sat directly on the ground, the battle just now was really too dangerous, and Russell, who had relaxed, suddenly felt deep fatigue.
The chief knight commanded the uninjured knights to rush to the enclosure and help the villagers kill the giant tiger that was still breaking through.
After the battle, the chief knight stopped the village chief and the villagers who wanted to ask about Russell, as he still had some questions to ask Russell.
The chief knight walked up to Russell and sat down, looked at Russell, who was physically and mentally exhausted, and said his inner doubts,
"I don't know how Russell managed to kill these two ogres?
Russell understood that the knight chief was probably a little suspicious of his identity, the knight chief's thoughts were normal, how could a villager kill these two ogres without being too injured, it was simply a fantasy.
Russell knew that he had made up a false past and could not resist the knight's scrutiny.
But even if he told the knights the truth, that he had come from another world, would the knights believe him?
So Russell decided to change the subject and avoid the important to attract the knight's attention.
Russell stood up and looked at the orcs on the side and asked, "Lord Knight, you just told me that this creature is called an ogre?"
Russell's words aroused anger in the knight's heart, and he got up and kicked the ogre's corpse in great anger,
"That's right, they're just a bunch of ogres, and most of the rest of the ogres are not much different from the intelligence of human children, except for those with different talents.
These guys eat an amazing amount of food, they can eat a cow a day, and the worst thing is that they will eat us humans as food.
I once had a proud knight's squire devoured by an ogre!"
Russell probably understood the characteristics of ogres, they basically had this endless appetite, coupled with their fat bodies, which became the fuse for ogres to do many evils.
Russell continued, "Lord Knight, are these ogres the orc thieves you told us about the other day?"
The chief knight nodded and said, "You guessed right, the ogres here are the fish that escaped from the net of this group of orc thieves, they escaped from the camp before our team surrounded them, and several of us have been following their traces before we came here. ”
The chief knight wanted to say something to Russell, but the knights who were collecting loot nearby had already completed their task and were sitting straight by his side, waiting for the commander's order.
The chief knight beckoned to the knight beside him, and the knight took the bag containing the loot to the captain.
The chief knight found a lot of things from the bag, some raw meat from the animals of the mountains, some strange knick-knacks, and a large pile of silver coins.
The chief knight smiled and pointed to the pile of loot, and said to Russell, "You can pick some of these things from them!"
"How embarrassing is this, knight chief, you have also experienced danger!"
The knight elder laughed and said, "Don't be modest, we just did the finishing touches, if it weren't for the task to explain the task to the superiors, we have no interest in what is here." ”
Russell asked tentatively, "I don't really understand the colorful and strange things here, but don't you need these silver coins?"
The chief knight patiently explained: "Young man, this pile of money is the most insignificant to us, you are not a knight of the cathars, if you become a knight, you will find that money comes as you want, but some magical things are difficult for you to buy!"
At this point, the chief knight kept silent, and Russell knew that they had probably talked about a confidential place.
These things were not something that he, a villager on the surface, could touch, so Russell and the knight chief had a tacit understanding and never talked about it again.
Russell looked at the loot again and said, "Then I still want this pile of silver coins! ”
The knight on the side didn't say much, and directly took out a small bag from his body and put all the silver coins in it.
However, there was still a question in Russell's heart, and after thinking for a while, Russell still asked this question,
"I don't know what these miscellaneous things are? how do they look like animal tissues, or like plant roots!"
"These?" the chief knight explained, pointing to the pile, "These are all magical materials, we knights are all strange materials that we can't use and can't understand, and generally speaking, we sell them to those wizards who are chattering about gods as spellcasting materials!"
Russell couldn't help but feel a trace of regret when he heard this, maybe these special magical materials were the opportunity for him to return to his own world.
The chief knight saw Russell's remorse, and said to the knight beside him, "Divide a few magic materials for this young man!"
Russell was immediately a little surprised when he saw this, and he didn't know what to say with the magic materials.
The knight chief looked at Russell and said: "These things are not valuable things, if you want to, you can give you a little, don't misunderstand me, I just saw that you are a good young man to give you some magic materials, don't think too much." ”
Russell silently accepted these magic materials, although the knight said that these materials were not valuable, but Russell Judging from the knight's caution in packing up the magic materials, these materials are likely to be very valuable.
The knight chief looked up at the sky, turned back to Russell and said: "The time is almost up, we should go, your village should pay attention, although this group of orc thieves has been annihilated by our team, maybe there are still some bandits who are still breathing, our team will not be able to stay here for a long time!"
Speaking of this, the chief knight pointed to Russell at the knight holding his stomach in the distance, and talked about the reason why they had to leave,
"One of my men was attacked by an orc thief while attacking the camp, and he was hit in the abdomen by an arrow coated with vicious poison, and we had no choice but to go back to the big city to find the goddess to treat him. ”
Suddenly, a knight walked up to the knight chief and whispered, "My lord, the time has come, we should set off, otherwise the wounded may not be able to bear the injury!"
Hearing this, the chief knight immediately stood up and gave an order: "The whole team obeys the order, and now set off immediately!"
The knights showed good fighting qualities, and even the wounded knights got up from the ground and prepared to go.
After a quarter of an hour or so, the group of knights was ready for the march.
The chief knight himself helped the wounded man to his horse, and he himself mounted his horse and prepared to leave.
Russell stood by the burnt pen and watched the knight leave.
Just before leaving, the chief knight suddenly thought of something, turned around and shouted to Russell: "Your combat level is good, and you are very young, maybe you will become a guardian knight in the future."
If you come to Yadai in the future, tell people my name Buna, and everyone there will sell you face!"
With that, the knight let out a hearty laugh and left the place with the small group.
Only then did Russell realize that the chief knight still noticed his abnormal combat power, and probably understood that he was not a villager.
But he still treats himself sincerely, which is a great favor for Russell.
I appreciate your kindness!
Russell thought silently as he held the pocket in his hand containing silver coins and magical materials.
To tell the truth, the majesty of the knights in this place was still very high, and it was not until the knights' figures completely disappeared below the horizon that the villagers hiding behind dared to come to Russell's vicinity.
The village chief also saw Russell at this time, and he hurried to Russell's side to look left and right to see Russell's condition.
"Russell, are you alright? You solved the huge monster just now?"
Russell pondered for a moment and told a white lie,
"I'm fine, these ogres were all dealt with by the knight!"
