Chapter 174: Little Artillery? Muskets!
Snowy River.
There are still 60 cloud miles away from Snow River City.
There was a series of noises in the woods, and it seemed that a behemoth had fallen from the sky and smashed into the trees.
Several figures jumped from the trees.
Justice Nwy looked at the hot air balloon hanging from the tree and was terrified.
Ryan accidentally knocked his foot when he jumped down, and was now sitting on the ground, checking his right foot.
Jeff looked solemn, looked around vigilantly, and asked cautiously,
"Mr. Luden, what do we do now?"
Their hot air balloon journey started relatively smoothly and was able to land, resupply, trim and set sail again as planned.
But often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet?
As we approached Snow River City, an accident happened.
The hot air balloon lost control and began to fall.
Ludon tried his best to control the crash of the hot air balloon in the woods, leaning against the woods as a buffer, while the crowd was wrapped in cotton clothes and parachutes to slow down the impact.
Only then did everyone survive this catastrophe.
Until this moment, Ryan did not know that the parachute was useless at all!
At the flight altitude of a hot air balloon, there is simply no room for parachutes to play.
Ludon carried this thing with him, purely for psychological purposes, and for cushioning when landing.
"Don't worry."
Ludon was the last to jump from the tree.
He cut the rope with a short knife and kicked the basket off the tree with a few more kicks.
Without Luden's orders, Jeff and Justice Envy stepped forward and began to collect supplies.
Food, water, a few backpacks, clothes...
In addition to these necessities, there are some things that Jeff doesn't recognize.
For example, a heavy cylinder, only the size of a little thumb, with a pointed head, made of brass, looks very valuable.
After jumping off the tree, Mr. Ludon examined the bag and carried a wooden iron rod on his back.
As for the other wooden iron rod, Ludon asked Jeff to carry it.
This thing is not light, except for Jeff, everyone else can't bear it.
If it's just an iron bar, there's no need to carry it.
When encountering ordinary beasts, you don't need an iron rod at all, and when you encounter orcs, you can't expect it to be of any use.
It is better to carry such a wooden iron rod on your body, than to bring a torch.
Since it was Mr. Luden's order, Jeff could only obey it, even if he was puzzled.
Ryan quickly finished the examination and said seriously, "I broke my left foot." ”
JUSTICE NVIY: ......
Does this need to be diagnosed?
Ludon took out a map and used a compass to determine the approximate location of the people according to the surrounding environment.
"There are still 60 cloud miles in a straight line from Snow River City, and if you walk along the Snow River, you need to walk 80 cloud miles."
Hearing this number, Jeff and Justice Envy's expressions sank.
That's too far away.
If they relied on foot, even if there was no threat from the orcs, they would have to walk for several days in this barren mountain range.
Not to mention, the beast tide is still raging now, even if most of the orcs are further south, and there are still scattered orcs near Snow River City.
The four of them only have a few short knives and daggers to defend themselves, and their overall combat effectiveness is extremely crotch-pulling...
In addition to Jeff and Luden, the two soy sauce bottles of Justice Enwei and Crazy Ryan are not bad. …
If they come across an orc, they might be able to maneuver around.
Once you meet two orcs... You can wait until you die.
After determining the location by relying on the map, Luden rolled up the map and retracted the waterproof cylinder.
"The movement just now is too big, the orcs will definitely be attracted here, we have to get out of here as soon as possible."
No matter how you survive next, get out of here first, and then make a decision.
Ludon showed the three of them a way forward and stayed where they were.
He first took out a bottle of potion and sprinkled it all around, this potion would stimulate the appetite and desire of the goblins to reproduce when it evaporated.
After sprinkling the potion, Ludon took out another packet of jerky and threw it in various conspicuous places.
This kind of high-oil, high-salt, and high-protein thing is the favorite of orcs.
Of course, there are a lot of drugs added to these jerky.
Before leaving, Ludon spilled several more bottles of powder, which he used to interfere with the orc's sense of smell to avoid being tracked.
The figure of several people disappeared into the woods.
Halfway through the clouds, a group of orcs appeared at the place where the balloon crashed, cautiously probing everything around them.
The orc's nose twitched twice, as if it smelled something special in the air.
An orc found some burnt jerky among the burning ashes!
These jerky immediately attracted the orcs to rush wildly.
After eating the jerky, the orcs did not immediately go after the humans, but went on to do something more important.
With a roar, the orcs began to reproduce on the spot, and changed it to the civilized language of human society - silver party.
Unfortunately, this batch of orcs is an odd number.
There was an orc who couldn't find his silver partner.
Stimulated by drugs, he decided to calm himself down.
Hit a glue first.
...
Night is slowly falling.
Several people walked along the Snow River for a while, and the pace of progress was ridiculously slow.
There is no way, there is no road here, and the foursome are old, weak, sick and disabled, and they can't move fast at all.
The good news is that no orcs have caught up.
At night, Ludon took out a warm stone to light and guard.
They did not dare to make a fire lest they attract orcs.
For dinner, the four of them ate some dry food, but because they were worried that they would survive in the wilderness for too long, they were only half full.
After dinner, they tied ropes between two large trees and unfurled the hammocks.
Sleeping in a hammock can avoid some mosquitoes, snakes and rats.
Obviously, Ludon had anticipated the predicament in front of him and made some preparations in advance.
In the first half of the night, Ludon and Ryan kept vigil, and Justice Jeff and Envy rested.
In the second half of the night, Luton slept in Justice Envy's hammock, while Ryan lay in Jeff's hammock.
It was gray and bright, and Ludon opened his eyes.
He wakes Ryan up and tells Jeff to put away the hammock while he goes to the river to fetch some water.
"There was no trace of orcs by the river, and we continued along the river."
After Luden finished speaking, he asked everyone to eat some dry food and hurry as soon as possible.
Before setting out again, Ludon took out a cylinder, placed it on a stone, and lit it with fire.
qiu——
After a sharp cracking sound, the cylinder flew into the sky and exploded.
Without Luden's orders, everyone subconsciously quickened their pace and stayed away from this place. …
The movement just now will definitely attract the attention of the orcs again.
Even though he knew the consequences, Lutdon did it, which shows that this matter is more important.
After a trot, the group hid in a jungle to rest.
Justice Envy asked,
"You're arraigning Ponge?"
"Yes."
Ludon didn't hide anything.
He had to inform Pang Ge of the situation of the others, relying on the four of them alone, it was already very difficult to survive in the wilderness, and it was a fool's dream to get to Snow River City.
Ludon played his own fighting style - Shake Man!
Inform Ponger and call for help.
As long as foreign aid arrives, Lu Deng and the others will be able to get out of the siege and enter Snow River City smoothly.
"By what arraignment?"
Justice Enwei frowned slightly, puzzled and asked,
"The color of the fireworks?"
It's too early, and there aren't necessarily people in Snow River City who are always paying attention to the sky around them.
Even if you notice it, it can be difficult to identify the color of the fireworks.
Before Luden could answer, Ryan, who was rubbing his feet, suddenly said,
"Time."
Justice Envy raised an eyebrow and looked at Ryan again.
This madman... It's kind of interesting.
No wonder he was picked by Ponge as one of his successors.
That's right, it's time.
When the distress fireworks are released, represents a different situation.
If it was just to shake people, when it fell yesterday, Ludon should have set off fireworks.
What's more, compared to the movement of fireworks, the movement of the hot air balloon crash is obviously greater.
Ludon didn't set off fireworks until this morning.
Explain that in the contingency plan agreed by Ludon and Ponger, when the fireworks are set off, it will itself convey a certain message.
If given a little more time, Justice Envy would have figured it out.
She was just used to asking Ludon when she had questions, after all, Ludon was kind of answering her questions.
Justice Envy casually exclaimed,
"There is growth."
The Ryan in front of him, and the Ryan four years ago, are obviously not in the same rank.
Ryan shook his head and said frankly,
"You're stupid."
Leaving the Divine State, leaving the field that Justice Envy excels in, her knowledge cannot provide her with support, and she is naturally half a beat slower in her reaction to certain things.
She has read books all her life, planted flowers for half her life, and has never studied how to survive in the wilderness.
Justice Nwy didn't feel offended and smiled.
Everyone recuperated for a moment and continued on their way.
When conditions permitted, they moved as close to the snow river as possible.
After walking for another half day, everyone began to choose a camping spot for tonight.
Along the way, Ludon teaches Jeff some common sense of survival in the wilderness, and the other two listen to him.
At the same time, Lutten told everyone that when they heard the command to 'lie down' and 'squat', they should not hesitate and just do it.
Luton didn't explain why he did it, and the crowd didn't ask.
After choosing a camping site, Ludon went around to scout and see if there were any supplies to collect.
After Ludon left, the three of them prepared to camp step by step.
At this time, an orc broke into the vicinity of the three of them and happened to bump into Jeff!
The distance between the two is no more than ten meters!
With just one dash, the orcs can rush in front of Jeff! …
The development of this orc is not very good, only less than two meters and a half, the muscles are also very shriveled, and the fist is only the size of a casserole.
He stared at the crowd, and the greed in his eyes was unobstructed.
The orcs didn't expect that there would be a late-night snack tonight!
Jeff pulled out his dagger, his right hand in front of him, and swung his left hand back.
His meaning was clear, let Ryan and Justice Envy run first.
Ryan pulled out a short knife and threw it to Justice Envy, shaking his head slightly.
You can't escape.
The orcs were physically stronger than everyone present.
They have weapons in their hands, and there is a possibility of a stalemate.
If the two of them turn and run away, Jeff will be torn to shreds in the first place, then both of them.
The reason why the orcs have not attacked yet is that it is not clear how many people there are and whether there is an ambush.
And... He saw the crossbow tied to Justice Enwy's right arm, and he was quite jealous.
The arrows are made of silver, and the arrows are obviously poisonous, and if they are hit by an arrow, they are likely to be killed.
Justice Envy didn't dare to act rashly, she wasn't sure how resistant the orcs were, she had never experimented with orcs, and she didn't dare to guarantee that the only crossbow arrow would hit.
Their best bet was to wait for Ludon to come back.
The stalemate didn't last long, and the greed of the orcs prevailed.
The orcs moved.
Instead of charging at Jeff, he wanted to bypass Jeff and deal with Justice Envy first.
At the last moment, the three of them heard a low roar in their ears,
"Squat!"
The moment they heard the order, the three of them squatted down and hugged their heads at the same time, without any hesitation.
They learned one thing from this trip:
Listen to Luden.
At the moment when the three of them squatted down-
"Bang-"
There was a loud bang, and everyone was startled, as if thunder was exploding in their ears.
In the middle of the orc's head, a black hole appeared, flowing with green blood, and its eyes were blank, and it fell backwards with a bang.
Several people looked behind them, Lu Deng held the long iron pipe, and there was white smoke slowly wafting out of the mouth of the iron pipe, and the air was filled with the smell of gunsmoke.
Ryan stared blankly at the weapon in Luden's hand, swallowed and spat, and said distractedly,
"Little artillery?"
"Nope."
Ludon put the gun behind his back, walked forward, and said casually,
"It's a musket."
