Section 33 Luck
Eric lay in his cage and looked at the Blood Banner Boss from afar.
His injuries were not serious. Due to the excellent armor, the greenskin's weapon does limited damage to him, most of the attacks cannot break through the armor, and those that are effective also pierce the armor, but cannot penetrate deep into the body. In fact, it was the Greenskin Boss who really hurt Eric and put him in a coma for a few days. And the blow that the Blood Banner Boss knocked him down, in fact, most of the power was also absorbed by his helmet. By the time he slowly regained his strength, he realized that the real injury on his body was a bruised lump in his head.
By this time it was completely dark, and the only thing that provided a glimmer of light in the tent was the campfire outside the tent. The smell of meat still filled the air, but Eric preferred not to think about what the greenskin was roasting. And in the dimly lit tent, where it was almost impossible to see, the Blood Banner Boss was reading a book.
In this dim light, Eric could only vaguely see the figure of the green-skinned boss, while the blood-flag boss could read the book carefully.
He had become more and more convinced that the Blood Banner Boss was not a greenskin, but some kind of sapient creature with a green-skinned appearance (though he couldn't guess what it was). If it is already shocking that an orc can learn human language, then this orc also likes to read books It completely subverts common sense.
Eric noticed that the Bloodflag Boss only read the book every time he had driven all of his men out of the city, and that each time he read the same book—not the history of the war between humans and the greenskins that had been shown to him before, but a rather beautifully thick one. The only thing Eric observed was that the cover of the book did not have a title, but a pattern drawn on it, and at first glance it was not one of the mass-printed books, but he couldn't see what it was.
However, the Blood Banner Boss seemed to love the book, and sat there and flipped through a few pages when he had time. And it's a page that can be read repeatedly for a long time.
"War has the final say. My teacher instructed me that justice cannot be called justice if it is defeated. If evil wins, it is not pure evil. Therefore, in war it is necessary to use all means at all costs, and when it is needed. You must not make any compromises and concessions until your opponent is completely defeated, because every concession and compromise you make will only make your opponent stronger and easier to defeat you. Don't expect anything you can do to please your enemies, because from the moment the war begins, all tenderness is gone. When a general goes to the battlefield, he must have the mentality of fighting to the death with the enemy to the end and fighting to the death, otherwise his command will be weak and powerless, and he will not be able to fight against a truly strong enemy......"
The Blood Banner Boss was reading in a low voice, and because it was relatively quiet in the room, Eric could hear the words clearly. This made him even more curious about what the Blood Banner Boss was reading.
Suddenly there were a few screams outside, and then there was a commotion like a pot in the camp.
"Master, something seems to have happened. In her head, Carrie said. "Seems to be harassed by the enemy?"
The Blood Banner Boss put away the book and walked out of the tent: "What happened?" he asked in a loud voice to an orc who was running over.
"Boss, a human has mixed in!" replied the orc honestly. "There's a lot going on over there!"
But the Blood Banner Boss knew that it was definitely not a large army that had mixed in, because he had arranged a lot of scouts and sentry posts, and if a large army approached, he would definitely be able to receive a warning in time. But such a small force of a few dozen people, with good training and a little luck, could sneak into the camp without alarming.
"Humans!Waaaaagh!You bunch of waste wood, you've let the enemy in!" the Blood Banner Boss rushed towards the source of the chaos, and soon gathered a sizable force. But by the time the Blood Banner Boss and his men arrived, it was already too late. The intruders had long since fled, and the few greenskinned corpses left on the ground proved that there had been a battle here.
"Go, let Sgoog search!" the Blood Banner Boss yelled at a few goblins.
This order was quickly executed. Soon after, hordes of Scroogs were driven by the goblins and rushed outside the camp. There are thousands of Scroogs, enough to easily engulf or trap enemies of any squad size. And their keen sense of smell ensures that they can be tracked smoothly in the dark.
Why would they send a small force over? Do you want to test the reality of the Greenskins? But there have been several battles before, and the Shim army should no longer need to adopt this method. Is it just a momentary caution?
The Blood Banner Boss took a moment to think about it, but he quickly stopped thinking about this small issue. It's just a squad destined to be eaten by Scroog. Despite the fact that Scroog looks like a fat head and big ears, they have great speed and endurance, and they are especially suitable for mountain running, and this team of inquirements will definitely not be able to escape.
"Master, it's almost time for today's adjustment. Carrie whispered.
"Hmm. The Blood Banner Boss looked at it, it was already late at night, and it really didn't matter much now.
"Boss, where are you going?" asked a couple of goblins flatteringly.
"I'm going to search for any humans!Get out of here, you bastards don't have to come along!" the Blood Banner Boss kicked the goblins in his way and walked straight out. Since the boss said so, naturally no one dared to follow.
"Damn, I almost got over!" rohr grumbled in a small hollow not far from the Greenskin camp.
Half an hour ago, the detachment made its first night visit to the Greenskin Camp. It didn't go well at first, with only a small group of goblins at the door. Rohr took the opportunity to drop a shiny silver coin behind the goblins on duty. When the goblins found the coin, it immediately caused chaos.
"Ah, a shiny thing, it's mine!"
"Fuck off!
"Fuck you! It's mine, it's the first thing I've seen!"
The goblins scuffled over their duties to snatch the coin, and the team easily entered the camp and hid on the edge of a garbage heap to investigate further.
But the final result was unexpected, a group of goblins who were stealing in the camp were also operating in the area, and these goblin thieves were hiding in hiding, and they also chose the garbage heap as a good hideout. So the two sides collided.
The rest was simple, as the screams of the first goblin when he was slain immediately caused a commotion in Greenskin. Perrin immediately ordered to fight and retreat, and after the Ror Palace, everyone finally escaped from the Greenskin camp in time. And at this moment, the incessant roar of the Scroog monster behind them told them how thrilling this retreat was. If it's any longer, they'll have to be overwhelmed by hundreds or thousands of Scroogs.
Although they were smeared with Scrooge's blood, avoiding their keen sense of smell, they couldn't walk around if they were seen.
"Not at all, Deputy Chief, there's no way to get in like this, there are too many greenskins. When the pursuing Sgurg ran away, one of his subordinates complained.
It is true that the current situation is beyond Peilan's expectations, you must know that in the human barracks, it is quiet at night, except for sentries and patrols, ordinary soldiers are forbidden to go out. Intruders are largely undetected as long as they can avoid sentries and patrols. This is not the case with these free-spirited greenskins, and the barracks are full of wandering around at night (especially goblins who steal everywhere), and it is too easy for intruders to spot.
"Rohr, go see what's going on in the Greenskin camp. Perrin thought for a moment and asked.
"Let me go alone?" there was no clear refusal in Rohr's tone. "I'm afraid this bunch of waste is going to get angry. ”
The other Holy Knights glared angrily, but no one spoke.
"Okay, then I'll give it a try. Rohr left the place where they were hiding and ran to a higher position.
"If you're the boss, I'll probably live in the best tent. Rohr whispered to himself, looking into the distance. The Holy Knights have more or less night vision, and Raul is especially powerful, as he is given a strong vision of darkness, allowing him to see a needle on the ground even in the darkest of nights.
"Don't worry, Deputy Chief," Rohr's words were normal, but his tone was full of sarcasm and contempt. "Without the search force chasing us out, we can evacuate safely...... Hey...... There's a greenskin that looks like he's coming out of the camp?"
"Greenskin?"
"Oh, there's only one. Looks like he came with Scroog. If he had been killed, those Scroogs would probably have run away. Cut...... It's boring!"
"A greenskin?" Perrin said to Rohr's side. His dark vision is not as strong as that of Rohr, but he can also see the situation over there at the moment. A tall orc left the camp and went in the other direction. That orc definitely didn't come out to chase them, wait a minute...... The orc...... The sword......
"That one ......" Pera's pupils instantly constricted. "That's the Greenskinned Boss...... Blood Banner Boss...... "Yes, it's the Bloodflag Boss, and that's the name of the Greenskin Boss mentioned in the letter."
The Blood Banner Boss went all the way. It has left the confines of the Iron Claw Mountains, and the terrain is mainly hilly and flat. Although the green-skinned camp was built on flat land, it was too large to cover an area, so it was a hill with dense vegetation not far from the camp. He was walking towards the hill at the moment.
It's far enough away from the camp that no matter what you do, no one should find out.
"Master, what's following us!" Carrie warned suddenly.
"Tracking?" the Blood Banner Boss stopped and looked around. Although he has the power of dark vision, in this kind of lush vegetation, there is a place for stalkers to hide.
"There are several, and the exact location and number cannot be judged!"
Was it Greenskins? a bunch of curious goblins? No, it couldn't be! Greenskins couldn't have disobeyed the Boss's orders! And he had double-checked that no one was with him when he set out.
So who is it? who can follow him in the dark of night, and still on the edge of the greenskin camp? a half-beast?
"Mimilu?" the Blood Banner Boss shouted tentatively. But there was no response in all directions, only the wind blew the grass and trees, making an ominous sound of "woo".
