Chapter 81: Muskets
Just as they were trying to break through, the rats and bears in front also rushed over, striking from both sides, the bows and arrows shot by the crossbow machine were blocked by the solid shields one by one, the crossbow machine could not resist the footsteps of the orc warriors at all, the human mercenaries fell one after another, and the orc warriors held their shields and waved their spears towards Sheld!
Hoffman rushed to the front, and he saw the hateful Scherde.
"It's you who deceived us last time and arrested Lao Tzu!" Hoffman said through gritted teeth.
"Kill!" Hoffman shouted, shouting and rushing in the direction of Sheld!
"Bell Bear? What's wrong with this Kitahara? How could the races of the middle part appear in the Northern Plains! ”
Looking at Hoffman who rushed up, Schellder didn't recognize him, and the first reaction in his mind was why the Bell Bear Clan appeared here.
"Captain! What the hell, run! Tabman said, dragging Schheld.
By this time Hoffman had already rushed forward, holding his spear high and stabbing it hard at Schelde, but it was empty, and the tip of the spear was stuck in the earth.
Tubman dodged the blow with a strong tug on Sheld, and the two rolled to the side, while Hoffman had already pulled out his spear and continued to chase Sheld.
Tarberman struggled to get up, and Schelder came back to his senses, looking at Hoffman who was close at hand, and Schelder was flustered and pulled something out of his arms.
Tarberman watched Hoffman's spear tip quickly approach Schilde's head, and the next moment he was about to plunge in, perhaps for fear of the blood rushing out of his eyes, the nervous Tabman subconsciously closed his eyes.
"Bang!"
"Ahh
Almost at the same time, a very loud sound was heard along with a scream of pain, which Tabman felt was both familiar and unfamiliar, and the sound of a spear stuck in his head must not be like this, and the scream was not made by Sheld, but by the Bell Bear on the other side!
Tarberman opened his eyes, and he was shocked by the scene in front of him, Schelder was holding a black pipe with a handle in his hand, the mouth of the pipe was still smoking, and Schelder kept the posture of aiming the black pipe at the Bell Bear Clan, and the Bell Bear Clan fell to the ground, the shield in his hand was not only broken, but also the blood rushing outward from his shoulder!
Tabman could never have imagined that this would be the case!
Then Schelder poured something out of his hand, then took a ball out of his bosom and stuffed it in.
"Captain, this can't be a musket!" Tabman said.
"It's a single-shot musket that I bought at a high price from the black market! Ordinary people can't buy it even if they have money! Schellder said proudly.
"Isn't this something that only nobles can have, I've only heard of it and never seen it, captain, you actually have one!" Tabman said in shock, in addition to shock, there was envy in his tone.
"I bought it in the black market, and I won't use it until I have to!" Schelder explained.
"Rush!" The movement just now attracted the attention of the other orc warriors, and more Bear and Mauss warriors rushed here.
Schelde could only shoot once at a time, and there was no way to face so many people, so he could only flee, and the Bear warriors who rushed over saw Hoffman fall to the ground, and were first taken aback, and made sure that there was no danger to his life, leaving two people to quickly bandage Hoffman, but the more bandaging it was, the more painful it became, and the more Hoffman shouted.
"Leave me alone, go after those two humans, who have muskets in their hands! Go and alert the people in front of you and tell them to be careful! Hoffman said in severe pain.
"Muskets? That man actually had a musket! "The orc warriors are more shocked, the musket is a powerful weapon developed by the dwarves, the difficulty of operation is extremely low, there are single-shot, burst-fire, scattering and other weapons of various standards.
With it, even a human who is powerless can instantly kill an ordinary orc soldier who has been trained in an instant, but fortunately it is worth a lot of money and cannot be equipped by ordinary people.
Fortunately, the process of making muskets is complicated and difficult, and at the same time, the dwarves are also deliberately controlling the flow of muskets, otherwise with the greed of humans, they must be eager to equip every soldier with muskets, so that the combat effectiveness of the human army will be greatly strengthened, and the pace of expansion will be faster.
"He didn't fire a second shot at the first time, so it's just a single-shot musket, maybe he doesn't have many bullets, he's the one who lied to us last time, go chase it!" Hoffman gasped and said, enduring the pain of his heart.
"What's going on here?" Liu Ergou's voice came, and the strange sound just now attracted Liu Ergou too.
This attack went unusually well, those human mercenaries didn't have any decent resistance, Liu Ergou and Ellanster didn't need to make a move, the humans were already defeated, only here seemed to be some problems, so Liu Ergou rushed to take a look.
Liu Ergou first saw the shield on the ground, the circular gap in the upper left corner of the shield was extremely conspicuous, and this seal was also very familiar.
"What's going on? Is it Hoffman? Are you okay! Liu Ergou's tone changed from doubts to anxiety, Liu Ergou didn't expect that something happened to Hoffman.
"Quick... Go after those two people, they have muskets, and you have to remind the people in front of you that they are small... Be careful! ”
Hoffman said intermittently, his shoulder was bleeding all the time, Hoffman's lips became pale, a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, the wound was not critical, but now he was bleeding too much, Hoffman was very weak, and he looked dying.
"Call Avril to treat Hoffman! Fast! Liu Ergou shouted loudly.
"Avril isn't here, she's in front!" Seattle said anxiously.
Liu Ergou was too anxious to forget that Avril had gone from the hole in the ground to the back of the camp in the first place, which meant that Avril might also meet the man with the musket.
"I'll go find her! Seattle, come over here and keep Hoffman awake, don't let Hoffman fall asleep! Liu Ergou commanded, and then directly used the light energy to sprint towards the front!
"It's... Is this light magic? Ellanst said in shock from behind.
Liu Ergou was gone, and he couldn't answer him, Seattle used a spiritual war song to keep Hoffman's consciousness as clear as possible, and Seattle also silently prayed in his heart that Liu Ergou would come back soon.
At this time, Liu Ergou, with the blessing of the light energy sprint, Liu Ergou quickly caught up with the two people who were fleeing, and at the same time, Liu Ergou also saw Avril, she was directing the people of the Robert Rabbit Clan to shoot the human mercenaries who fled here with bows and arrows, and did not pay attention to the Shell and Tarberman who ran over.
Schelde also saw her, and he realized that Avril was in command, and that such a person would be very flustered if he was injured, and when the time came, it would be better for him to run out.
So Schelde took out the musket from his arms and aimed the muzzle at Avril, Liu Ergou saw this scene, and immediately increased the power of the light energy sprint to the maximum, burst out at an extremely fast speed, and rushed towards Avril. At this point, Schelder had just pulled the trigger.
"Bell!"
With a crisp sound full of metallic texture, the bullet hit Liu Ergou's back, and the dark golden scale armor skin was not damaged in the slightest, and the bullet fell to the ground weakly.
"Priest Lord? How did you get here? Avril didn't know what had just happened, and asked with a puzzled expression.
