Chapter 226 Orc Commander
While Xiao Lin successfully attracted firepower, the others did not stare blankly. Chengming was the temporary commander of this stormtrooper. Although he was honest and honest, he was not a hesitant person. He waved his hand and decisively ordered that more than a dozen people beside him to take care of the wounded, while the others continued to charge with him.
Xiao Lin climbed up flexibly along the beast teeth and bones embedded in the fortress. As the distance got closer, he could vaguely see the faces of the defenders on the top of the fortress. They had reddish-brown skin and ferocious faces. As he expected, there were indeed beast defenses in the fortress. With the weak body of the fishman, it was impossible to have that kind of power to throw weapons.
The fortress was only about three stories high, with Xiao Lin's current agility. Although the orcs, despite Chen Dao's spell bombardment, failed to stop Xiao Lin. In the blink of an eye, they easily climbed to the top.
The orcs on the city wall were ready. As soon as Xiao Lin appeared, he saw several reddish-brown orcs roaring towards him. Unlike the fishman, these orcs have very strong bodies. Even if Xiao Lin was prepared, he transformed all his attributes into strength while climbing the wall. However, facing the orcs' charges coming towards him, he felt like he bumped into the iron wall. He staggered and was almost driven out again.
Xiao Lin slashed a sword with his backhand, and the orc raised the round shield on his left arm at the same time to block the sword. However, Xiao Lin waved his staff and released several flame bombs in succession, all hitting the orc's legs. The brown skin immediately became darker red, which was a sign of burning. The orc's roar became even louder, but did not retreat because of this. Instead, he strode forward, as if he was about to drive Xiao Lin out of the fortress.
Xiao Lin bared his teeth. The orcs were indeed more fierce and brave than the fishmen. He glanced at the vicinity. There were not many orcs. In total, there were only a few dozen, and they were all infantry. There were no traces of wolf cavalry, and there were still a large number of fishmen in the fortress as the main defense, but more and more people began to surround him, which was not good.
Xiao Lin was anxious to escape, and the Holy Soul Sword in his hand suddenly trembled slightly and slashed forward again. The orc subconsciously raised the shield to defend, but the sword did not cut on the shield. A circle of ripples fluctuated, and the temperature of the air suddenly increased in an instant. When the orc felt something was wrong, it was too late. A spark exploded from the blade of the sword and finally forced the orc back.
The flame sword energy, the external sword energy that was directly released through communication with the fire element, was finally used for the first time that Xiao Lin successfully mastered not long before the moon test.
The power of sword energy is quite domineering, and it is definitely not comparable to ordinary sword skills. Even the orc with thick skin is still wearing simple leather armor. He was still seriously injured by this flame sword energy. Not only was the hair burned all over his body, but his reddish-brown skin also turned black. He fell to the ground and twitched in pain.
Xiao Lin's spirit also showed obvious depression. The flame sword energy is strong, but he is only in the beginner stage and consumes a lot, especially the external sword energy is still a double consumption of physical strength and mental power.
But Xiao Lin's situation was not alleviated. The flame sword energy could indeed cause substantial damage to the orcs, but the beast tribe's fearlessness made them surge up quickly. At this time, Chengming and they were about to arrive at the foot of the fortress. It would take some time for them to climb up one after another.
Xiao Lin has successfully won a short period of time, but it is not enough. He has to ensure that he can survive. He took a deep breath. He quickly judged the surrounding situation in his mind in a very short time. He wanted to retreat directly from the city wall. After all, his mission was completed, and it was hard to whistle alone. Even if he had a phantom step, this skill had its limits, and there were always attacks and blind spots that could not be dodged.
But as he turned around, he glanced at a detail from the corner. Inside the fortress, on an open training ground, a fully armed orc was roaring in orcs. His voice was very high, like thunder, even Xiao Lin on the top of the fortress could hear it.
This orc looked different. Compared with other orcs, he had stronger bodies, longer hair, bigger size, and more importantly, there was a long list of exquisite animal bone carvings hanging on his chest.
Xiao Lin made up a lot of contents of Norma Continental history classes through Gu Xiaoyue's accompanying notes for a while, so he knew that this kind of orb was equivalent to honor, and the number of honors that were linked to such special beast bones. Simply put, this is probably equivalent to the military rank system of the orc. The more honors, the higher the status of the orc.
If nothing unexpected happens, this orc is probably the commander of this fortress.
Xiao Lin's hesitation lasted for less than two seconds. He roughly estimated the amount of physical strength left in his heart. After arguing, he immediately gave up his plan to withdraw from the fortress. He had another chance, that is, the accompanying effect of the War Bear Skin Armor was full of fighting spirit, and he could replenish the consumed physical strength through continuous battles. As a bronze-level equipment, this effect was also very limited. For example, the physical strength that can be replenished depends on the intensity and time of the battle, and it was impossible to use it repeatedly.
But even so, this effect can play a huge role at critical moments, and it is worthy of the price of 2,000 redemption points.
After the war spirit was activated, Xiao Lin was bathed in a layer of red light that was faintly visible. In an instant, he felt his fatigue disappear and his spirit was in an extremely excited state. He inexplicably understood the principle of Lu Renjia making this leather armor. It looked a bit like the stimulant of the earth, but at the same time he also understood that since it was a stimulant, when the effect of this period was maintained, his physical strength and spirit would decline more rapidly.
With less time, Xiao Lin transformed all the attributes to agility again, and the Phantom Step was opened again. The orcs only felt that there was a flash in front of them. In a miraculous state, the Phantom Step was to truly exert the essence of the word Phantom. Under the most complex combination of footwork, Xiao Lin could leave a afterimage every time he moved quickly, although this would consume a lot of physical strength.
People who have reached a certain level will not be confused by such low-level phantoms, but unfortunately these orcs are not among them. Although it only took a moment to do so, Xiao Lin, who has fully exerted his strength, has successfully broken free from the circle surrounded by orcs, and went straight to the orc commander on the training ground along the ladder. On the way, he also chopped the several fishmen who were trying to rush up to the ground. (To be continued.)
