Chapter 239 Shocked the audience!
"It's a curse! We are cursed!"
While Gervais was waiting solemnly, the sheep-horned leader on the opposite side roared loudly after inspecting the environment of the arena.
However, Gervais did not hear these two sentences because of the cheers of the audience and the roars of other orcs from time to time.
"What kind of place is this? Is it a cursed place? Have all the cursed Royal Court orcs been sent to this place? Then where are they? Why are there so many humans!"
The head of the pig-headed leader was obviously full of doubts. In the past, they had often heard that some of their kind would be cursed and disappear inexplicably, but now that it was his turn, he became a little confused.
"No matter where it is, let's kill all these despicable humans first!"
The goat-horned orc leader obviously couldn't answer the pig-headed man's question, but he didn't want to think too much. He now felt that the reason why they came here was a human conspiracy. The orc leader glanced at everyone present with hatred,
He picked up the skull staff and prepared to kill!
"Okay! Priest with ram's horns, we must run out and tell the Beast King the human conspiracy!"
The pig-headed leader yelled, raised a huge mace in his hand and began to issue orders.
Because there are high walls and guardrails with huge gaps all around, the first target of attack for both the pig-headed and the goat-horned orcs is naturally on Gervais!
"For the sake of the royal court! Warriors, kill all these despicable humans! The God of Behemoth will bless us!"
"kill!"
As the orc leaders of the two races issued orders, the ordinary orcs who had long been unable to hold back rushed towards Gervais and the 15 others in a swarm.
Although the orcs' charge had no formation at all, their advantages in numbers and size made the charge of more than a hundred people powerful. Gervais and others suddenly felt that the orcs on the opposite side were rushing towards them like a huge wave.
.
Even the spectators on the field turned pale when they saw this scene and involuntarily took a small step back. They had never seen so many orcs shouting and charging together.
Among the orcs, the sheep-horned orcs were at the forefront, because the sheep-headed orcs were much faster than the pig-headed people. The sheep-headed orcs held weapons in their hands, but they crouched down and charged on all fours like ordinary beasts.
The double horns on it were always pointed at Gervais and the others like speeding javelins.
"Musket ready!"
"put!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
In fact, before the orcs charged, Gervais wanted to let the guards shoot, but the distance of more than 150 meters was a bit far, and there were enemies and orcs on the opposite side. The orcs were tall, strong, and muscular, so Gervais was worried about the distance.
At such a distance, the musket cannot cause fatal damage to the orcs, but instead wastes reloading time.
If the enemy is an ordinary human soldier, the musket can cause huge damage to the enemy's body as long as it hits at a distance of 150 meters.
So when the orcs charged and approached 120 meters, Gervais finally gave the order to shoot!
Following Gervais's order, the four guards squatting on the ground in the first row pulled the triggers in their hands. With a huge explosion, a burst of white smoke came out of the barrel, and the projectiles were already charging towards them.
The incoming enemies flew away.
As the sound of muskets fell, the four sheephorned orcs at the front of the opposite orcs fell to the ground. This situation made Gervais's eyes widen.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Next, without Gervais's order, the guards in the second row also stood and pulled the triggers in their hands, and then Gervais saw four more sheephorned orcs from the opponent fall to the ground!
It wasn't until this moment that Gervais discovered to his surprise that his musket was not the nemesis of the charging Fae-horns.
The advantage of the Sheephorns is that they charge on all fours and use their horns to attack the enemy formation with their heads in front. However, this characteristic is destined to teach them a painful lesson today.
Because the orcs have strong bodies, if a musket hits them, the orcs may not be killed directly with one shot, but it is different if it hits the head, especially if the head is lowered, the Tianling Cap is completely exposed to Gervais and the others.
As long as the sheephorn is hit in the head and the projectile is shot into the brain, no matter how powerful the sheephorn is and how developed the muscles are, it will fall to the ground and die immediately!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another burst of smoke filled the air. Gervais and the last row of guards also fired the projectiles in the gun chambers. The orc charging formation on the opposite side was dense, and thanks to Gervais's training, this first round
None of the shots missed the target. A volley of musketry from Gervais and 12 of his bodyguards directly knocked down 12 of the opponent's goathorns.
At this moment, all the spectators in the arena forgot to cheer. They were dumbfounded and looked at Gervais and the others in disbelief.
Everyone couldn't figure out what the strange-shaped thing that Gervais and others were holding was. It not only made a loud noise, but also sprayed smoke. The most important thing was that after the weapons in their hands sprayed out a burst of smoke, they were still there.
Several orcs a hundred meters away will fall accordingly.
"What is that? Is this magic in a novel script? Otherwise, how could it be possible to kill an orc from a hundred meters away?"
Because they did not see arrow feathers streaking through the air, and they were sure that even arrow feathers could not kill so many orcs at such a long distance.
This caused some young nobles who had read several fantasy novel scripts to come up with ridiculous ideas, just like how people on earth thought they had seen Superman in movies and TV shows after seeing such a scene.
Not only the minor nobles, but also many representatives of the earls were deep in thought. They looked at Gervais with weirdness and greed in their eyes. As heirs of a big family, in addition to being curious about new things, they also had
Extremely possessive, especially a weapon that can kill monsters a hundred meters away.
In the central stand, Alice was also looking at Gervais in a daze, and suddenly remembered the words Thomas had mentioned to her when Thomas came to Winterfell to sell ice cream, about Gervase killing monsters with powerful weapons.
Alice originally wanted to wait for Gervais to come to Rose Castle to ask about the weapons in person, but she has been so busy recently that she has forgotten about it. But now seeing the sharp musket in Gervais's hand,
I remembered this immediately.
Alice basically believed that the powerful weapon Thomas was talking about might be the thing in front of her.
"Anna, are the weapons Gervais and the others are holding invented by Gervais?"
Alice suddenly remembered that Anna was Gervase's personal maid! She should be able to get answers to these questions, so she turned to Anna and asked.
"Yes, sir, the muskets in the hands of you and your guards were invented by Lord Gervais, and they were forged with mithril. They are so powerful!"
Anna has now fully accepted Alice as the 'mistress'. Of course, she will not hide the things that the mistress wants to know about her master, and immediately tells Alice about her master's achievements with admiration.
"As expected!"
When Alice heard this, she was finally sure that this was the reason why Gervais killed the monster!
Of course, Alice did not expect that the powerful weapon Thomas mentioned that day was not actually a musket, but Gervais's otherworldly grenade.
The reason why Gervais's musket can cause such damage to the orcs today is entirely due to the work of the sheep-horned orcs themselves. If the pig-headed men are charging at the front, then it is estimated that four people can shoot in a volley and kill two pig-headed men.
Good luck.
