Chapter 64: Beat the Orcs and Return
Xia Duo thought about it for a while, then entered a state of concentration, and used [Communication] to contact Sammy-
"Sammy, I'm going to use these three orcs to practice and cooperate, what do you think? Give me a gesture if you agree. β
Sammy immediately gestured in agreement, and a few seconds later sent a more specific message through the [Communication].
Being ambushed by the orcs even led to attrition, and Sammy was certainly not willing to kill them so simply, besides, letting the rest of the team practice their skills was in line with their fundamental purpose in coming out to fight.
"Idim, the four of you go to Captain Gibb, the Dean team goes to Captain Uk, and the others we get closer."
The eight recruits left and tightened their spears and rushed forward, while there were only four veterans with Shado and Dean at this time, and the two wanderers, Ava and Mavre, were on guard on the perimeter.
"Dean, how do you feel about meeting real orcs?"
Looking at the only three remaining orcs, Xia Duo asked casually.
Although they had been pinned, the three orcs were still able to push Gibb and them back with a single blow.
Of course, there is an element of unloading force in this, but it can also show that the strength of orcs is far beyond that of humans.
Dean had a thoughtful expression on his face, "Orcs are strong, but they're not invincible!" β
Before seeing the orcs with his own eyes, Dean had heard countless legends about the orcs, some of whom were invincible, and some of whom were the same as goblins.
Of course, there are more in between, but it is generally believed that orcs are stronger than humans, but no amount of description from others is enough for him to establish a clear understanding until he has seen them with his own eyes.
Dean's description is succinct, but it happens to be similar to Shado's idea, the orcs are strong, but they are not invincible, and even three skilled veterans are enough to hold one down.
So the question is, why has the Savile Territory not been able to clean up the surrounding orc tribes so far, and even has been shrouded in the fear of the orc tide for nearly a hundred years.
Xia Duo thinks that the problem should lie in this "tide".
At this time, he was extremely glad that he didn't need to participate in the frontal battle of the orc tide this time, and if he had crossed ten years earlier, he might have to worry about how to survive on the battlefield.
β¦β¦
On the other side, the four recruits of the Xia Duo team were already close to the back of the Gibb and Jesse brothers with spears, although the three of them firmly contained an orc, but the defense was more than enough, and the attack was insufficient.
It would be a little embarrassing for the orcs to try to escape despite their injuries, and it would be difficult for them to deliver a fatal blow with a one-handed sword. Fortunately, as long as the orcs fight, they will not run away easily.
Of course, as long as you grind it long enough, you can kill it sooner or later.
And the arrival of Yidim and the others immediately changed the state of stalemate, and every time the orc swung out the stone axe, Gibb shouted, "Thorn"!
From top to bottom, four spears stabbed at different vulnerable parts of the orcs.
If the orc doesn't care, he will be injured immediately, and even if the orc has entered a frenzied fighting mode, he will not let the silk poke the spear at him.
However, if you choose to dodge or counterattack with a stone axe, the original attack will have no effect.
So under this care, the orcs have more and more wounds, and their temperament has become more and more manic.
At this time, Gibb also shouted: "Give priority to attacking the lower limbs, the orcs are going to escape, don't cross the three of us when pursuing, be careful of the orcs to kill back." β
Listening to Gibb's instructions, the four recruits suddenly calmed down a lot, and broke away from the ecstasy of easily besieging the orcs, realizing that they were so easy because there were three veterans in the way.
And if they get past them, maybe the orcs can hack them to death with a single axe.
"Roar-*%Β₯&!"
The orcs on Gibb's side shouted loudly in orc language, and the other two orcs also roared in response almost at the same time, but it was a long time before the last orc responded.
That's when they noticed that the people had been killed by humans!
"Roarβ"
The orc's blood-red eyes were more like they were about to drip blood at the moment, and this huge roar made even everyone who were human beings feel the anger contained in it.
The survival instinct of any creature finally prevailed over the belligerent nature, and the orcs on Gibb's side roared angrily and turned to run. However, at this time, it was too late to think of escaping.
The lower limbs were injured too much, and the speed of the orc was greatly affected at this time, and the three Gibb held it tightly, and the four recruits calmly drew their guns in the back.
"Kill!" One round.
"Kill!" Two rounds.
It was only two rounds of attacks that were not blocked or dodged, and the orc was completely damaged, but it was still not dead, staggered two more steps, and finally fell.
Captain Gibb continued to approach, ordering the recruits to remove the orc's stone axe and continue stabbing until Gibb thought it was dead.
The other two orcs received a similar ending, becoming a pile of dead flesh on the ground, no longer regaining their former vitality.
At this time, Xia Duo walked towards the defensive formation of Sami and the others, "Sammy! β
"Xia Duo, thank you so much, otherwise we would be in trouble today!" Sammy still has palpitations, his mind almost blank when he was ambushed by the orcs.
Fortunately, the orcs didn't attack him first, otherwise they would have to collect his corpse when Xia Duo came over, and he wouldn't even be able to collect the corpse.
The thought of the two companions who had been ambushed to death and had been destroyed by the orcs after their deaths made Sammy feel an indescribable resentment.
"Xia Duo, several of us are injured, we need to hurry back, what about you?"
"There's not much need for the actual combat training to continue here, let's go back, the orcs have all run here, and we still need to report to the territory."
"Hmm."
Sammy nodded, turned around and ordered the team members to pick up the injured companion and bring him back to the territory for healing, and Shado noticed that in addition to the two who died at first, there was another shoulder on Sammy's side that had been almost split in half, and he was still dead.
In this battle, they directly reduced their number of troops by three, and there were four or five who were seriously wounded, and the rest of them were also disgraced, if it weren't for the last four orcs to die, the morale would not know where to fall!
Regardless of how Sami and them dealt with the aftermath, Xia Duo also beckoned the two squad captains of Jibu and Uke to form a team, compared to Sammy, they have gained a lot today.
Although the goblin tribe failed to cut it, it was more worth cutting orcs, and through this fight with the orcs, all the recruits seemed to have undergone a metamorphosis, no longer full of fear of orcs, but became confident and more aggressive.
Xia Duo had the orc's head cut off as a trophy, and then more than twenty people followed Sami and the others and slowly set off in the direction of Savile Town.
