Never Thought You'd Be This Kind of Hero!
Chapter 172
The final result could be regarded as a complete victory. The enemy was completely annihilated, and although they had lost dozens of people, it was clear that neither the human Horse Gang nor the Orcs took these "small casualties" seriously.
Even the leader of the Black Front Bandit Gang, Black Flag, wrapped his broken arm and said with a smile, "Not bad. If it weren't for your help, we would have lost more people."
His left arm was broken from the elbow. It had been eaten by the rock worms in the previous battle, and there was no way to save it.
But other than the first cry of pain when his arm was bitten off, he had never cried out in pain again.
The north of the Golden Grassland was a difficult place to live. All the creatures living there had developed a rough and strong nature, and they would never give up hope of survival.
They mourned deeply for their companions who had died in the battle.
Previously, the humans and Orcs in the battle team had been separated. The Orcs were led by the Orcs, and the humans were led by the humans, so there was a deep gap between them. Now that they had fought side by side, their relationship had become better. The experience of calling each other brothers and cursing Serpentis together made them seem closer.
Xiong Yuan and Chi Jiu looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes. At first, they did not want to expand the conflict and let the leaders of the other forces take care of their internal affairs. But they did not expect that the effect would be worse than messing up the situation …
That night, the bonfire was lit, and the Orcs and Horse Gang danced their grassland dance. The chiefs blew the low horn, which sounded particularly distant in the night.
This was their way of mourning for their companions. Xiong Yuan carried out the body of Xiong Shan Shaman, and the members of the Sun Orc Bandits also carried out the body of their leader. Later, under the tent of Serpentis, who was disguised as the military counselor, Guan Yu, they dug out the former military counselor's body. But it was no longer a corpse. In order to disguise as him, Guan Yu had spent a lot of effort to peel off his skin and use it for some witchcraft. Now, the military counselor was only left with a white skeleton.
The Sun Bandits buried their leader Zalón and the human counselor together. The deputy leader who was elected urgently was a White Wolf Orc. He, who had always been a tough man, shed two drops of tears. He stood in front of the mound and said in a rough voice, "Let's not talk about anything else. Leader and military counselor, in the future, use the skull of Serpentis to pour wine for you!"
Xu Jun and the others looked at all of this in silence. After everyone left, they went to the rough 'grave' to pay their respects.
After the fierce battle during the day, everyone's mentality had calmed down. The camp could no longer be used for rest. Although the Serpentis Rock Bugs had been defeated, the traces of cracks on the ground were still there. No one wanted to sleep and roll into the cracks.
Fortunately, the Orcs had been living here for a while and had accumulated a lot of furs. Now, they distributed the furs for everyone to sleep on and make do for the night.
The next day, they did not set up camp again.
Serpentis had planned for many days and sent such a big gift. Now, everyone's heart was filled with anger.
For a moment, they did not care about the fact that the reinforcements sent by the Golden Banner were humans after all. They did not care about the fact that there were bandits and Orcs among them. Early in the morning, they all rode their mounts and beasts and headed north.
The Rock Bugs could burrow at fifty meters per minute, but their mounts and beasts could run at five hundred meters per minute. If the Serpentis wanted to catch them off guard, the results would be just as good if they were the ones doing it.
Along the way, they had thrown away the last of their distracting thoughts. They picked a few strong Orcs to escort the old and sick to the south. Regardless of whether these Orcs lived or died, their final destination was the sub-elf city in the south of the Saint Origin Highland. There were many non-human races there, so they would not be able to cause much of a stir there.
In the south, there were Holy Light Elves and Moonlight Elves, who were stronger than the Orcs and Humans. If the Serpentis had the ability to expand to the south, they would be defeated by the Elves.
After settling the future of the Orcs who could not fight, the Orcs were full of determination.
Even if they had to die immediately, they had nothing to regret.
However, Xu Jun, Leia, and Jamben, the three light armored Orcs who could run fast, left the group. Their mission was to sneak into the Serpentis and cause chaos inside, creating space for the Orcs to attack. It would be best if they could blow up some of the Serpentis' important buildings.
The three of them split into three directions. Leia's target was the Serpentis' watchtower, Jamben was the slave camp, and Xu Jun was the "Taming Base".
These were the three most important buildings that the Serpentis were currently protecting. They were also places that could not be changed in a short period of time due to their large scale, so they were the best targets.
The watchtower was naturally a tall tower that allowed the Serpentis to grasp the situation within twenty kilometers. This distance did not seem long, but the total distance from the Orc camp to the Serpentis was only about sixty kilometers. This was already enough to monitor one-third of the journey.
Fortunately, the three people in the vanguard were fast and had good stealth skills, so they could take on this heavy responsibility.
The slave camp held the slave soldiers that the Serpentis had "produced" during this period of time. There were both Orcs and humans. After their ambition and strength had completely exploded, this race had given up their "gentle" style and instead bared their fangs, wantonly looting the surrounding forces and races.
If the leaders of these forces had been as decisive as the leaders of the Polar Bear tribe, Red Fox, and a few other bandit groups, they might have been able to escape with their lives. Unfortunately, the Serpentis had always been like boiling frogs in warm water. They had been using a policy of appeasement to these races and had given them a lot of things, including beauties and treasures. These people's will had long been worn away. When the Serpentis made their move, they had no way of retaliating.
These people first had to pass through the "Taming Base" and then go to the slave camp. The Red Fox scout said that there was still a chance to sneak into the slave camp, but the Taming Base was like a mysterious legend. Everyone knew that such a place existed, but no one knew where it was.
He had captured a low-level Serpentis warrior to scout for information, but he did not get any information. Instead, he was almost discovered because he had done too much. When he escaped, he was slightly injured.
However, when he was escaping, he seemed to have turned into a smelly and dark alley. There was a huge fortress there. Through the thick stone walls, he could hear soul-piercing roars and howls from the fortress. That was the sound of a person's body and mind being destroyed by a powerful force, and falling into hell.
The Red Fox scout's legs almost gave out and he knelt on the ground. When his hand touched the ground, he realized that it was not a smelly ditch that was emitting a foul stench. It was a floor full of black blood that stuck to his hand. This place was actually stained with blood.
He was originally a brave Orc, but at this time, his courage was destroyed.
In the end, he could only say that he was lucky to be able to escape this hell. After returning to the Orc camp, he had a high fever for two days. In the end, it was not easy for him to recount his memories, but he did not make it and died in a horrible way.
Shaman's explanation was that his spirit was eroded by darkness when he was in extreme fear. His soul was damaged, so he could not make it.
Xu Jun rode on Jess, and the two of them flew all the way. The atmosphere was heavy, and neither of them spoke.
Jess's mane was flying like a crazy horse. He was now grateful to Xu Jun for asking him to hide his figure. At first, he was complaining that he could not let others see his handsome face galloping in the air. Now, he was not handsome at all. The strong air resistance was almost blowing his face askew.
— — Fortunately, it was not a steamed bun. The young boy was still growing and could not stand this.
Jess, who had recently become more and more like a nanny, suddenly grinned. The wind poured into his mouth, and he almost choked to death.
The closer he got to the Serpentis, the worse the smog became. When Xu Jun really reached the Serpentis' main entrance, he felt that the sky was as dark as the boiler room during the Industrial Revolution.
However, it was different from the places he had been to. Not only were the dark elements thicker, but there was also an indistinguishable fishy smell in the air that made him uncomfortable.
He patted Jess and asked him to find a place to hide outside the city. He thought for a while and then jumped into the sewers.
He definitely could not go through the main entrance. Even if his stealth ability was strong, he would not be able to pass through the main entrance.
Previously, the Red Fox scout seemed to have climbed over the wall, so now the city wall had changed a little. There were always people patrolling above, and each patrol team had a unique route. If Xu Jun rashly climbed the wall, he would probably be met halfway.
He did not want to act rashly and alert the enemy, so he had to find a way that normal people would not think of.
Serpentis had already turned this place into a "city", so it had all kinds of facilities. Places like the sewers also covered the entire city. After Xu Jun went in, he found that the water pressure was very high. If he did not have the Underwater Breathing Potion and was very strong, he would not have been able to swim over.
Moreover, the water here was also very corrosive. Xu Jun almost choked at first. It was really disgusting.
The water was also fishy and smelly. Who knew what was in it?
However, other than the suffocating smell, there was nothing that could hurt him. He also did not feel that there was any surveillance here. Thinking about it, this place was so disgusting and dangerous. Other than him, no one would come in here. Of course, there would be no one guarding the door.
He could see a green light in front of him. It should be the exit.
Xu Jun suddenly thought of an online game he played a long time ago. At that time, he followed a group to slaughter a city of the enemy camp. In the end, because the city's design was too strange, they could not find the entrance. The whole group was blocked at the enemy's main entrance … In the end, they found out that the real entrance was actually the sewers. _ (: 3.gov.cn) _
History is always so similar.
The author has something to say: The last online game mentioned was World of Warcraft. _ (: 3.∠) _
It was also a friend who told me. He said that three allied groups wanted to go to the Undercity to slaughter the Undead Horde. The first two groups could not find the entrance in the end and were blocked at the elevator. The third group did not know why they went to the Silvermoon City of the Blood Elves.
Well, in a sense, the Blood Elves and the Undead are relatives. → _ →
Long live the Queen!
I did not expect you to be such a brave person!
