And just when Bol was about to replace the dead ghost, he would not have thought that there was a high-level rogue in Shado's team, and that he had discovered the movements of the orcs in advance.
When he was riding the injured summoned mount through a bush, a cold arrow was suddenly fired from behind, hitting the mount under his butt.
Summoned mounts are summoned by spells. Although they look the same as real mounts, their existence time will be reduced as long as they are injured. Once they damage a key part, they will disappear directly.
This key part is not the key part of the real mount, but the key part of the spell extension. Ava has received professional rogue training, and his understanding of common spells is no worse than some ordinary mages.
He was very aware of the weak points of this summoned mount, and he hit the weak point with one blow, and the forest horse also turned invisible.
Before Bol could react, he fell to the ground and rolled several meters away. Although he did not hit a tree and died on the stone on the spot, the moment he fell to the ground, Bol could already predict what he would do next.
It's fate.
He struggled to raise his head and looked desperately in the direction he came from.
In less than a minute, a group of orcs rushed over and threw an ax from a distance, directly cutting the unresisting Bol into two pieces.
At this time, Ava, who was hiding aside, had not yet left. He wanted to observe the number of orcs and whether they would continue to move towards Shado.
There were nine orcs in total, but these nine orcs were all in excellent condition. They seemed not to be affected by the destruction of their lair and the defeat in the decisive battle. It was obvious that these nine were elites among the orcs.
One of the orcs spotted the arrow shot by Ava on the spot, and with its roar, the other orcs immediately spread out, trying to find possible enemies.
But Ava flexibly used light and shadow, trees, and even the orc's field of vision to achieve the effect of invisibility. The orc searched for a while but found no results, and then continued to track Bol in the direction of his escape.
Seeing this scene, Ava immediately returned. With the speed of a high-level rogue, he returned to the temporary position set up by Sami and Shado before the orcs arrived.
"The orcs are here, nine in total, all elite."
Xia Duo nodded. The situation was not too bad. They had encountered elite orcs before, and the metal armor was ripped off from that elite orc.
Xia Duo still had some idea of the strength of the elite orcs, but it was a bit troublesome to encounter nine of them at once.
Xia Duo directly ordered the formation to wait for the enemy. The hearing and smell of orcs were stronger than humans. There was almost no possibility of ambush at close range. Even with the traps arranged in front, Xia Duo did not fully expect them to hurt a few orcs.
Just a moment after Ava returned, Shado heard the roars and footsteps of orcs from far to near.
When Sha Duo and others saw the orcs, the orcs also saw the humans waiting in front. Sha Duo noticed that the orcs gradually slowed down, and immediately cast the [Phantom Sound Technique] and yelled in blunt orc language:
"Coward, idiot! I will crush your heads!"
Hearing the provocative voice of humans, the orcs immediately roared, completely ignoring the numerical gap between the two sides, speeding up and running straight over.
Xia Duo watched silently as nine orcs rushed into the trap area. He immediately ordered, "Fire arrows!"
Forty arrows flew out in an instant, forming an almost covering effect. Two orcs dodged and were not hasty to parry, and were hit by the arrows immediately. Another orc stepped on the one-handed sword that Sha Duo and others had buried in the ground, and was distracted.
He was also hit by an arrow.
Roar--
An orc roared angrily, took off a wolf tooth ornament from his neck, and scratched his face heavily. The blood-stained wolf tooth ornament immediately emitted a scarlet light and enveloped the orc, making his figure almost visible to the naked eye.
The speed is full.
Seeing this, other orcs also took off their wolf fang ornaments, or pierced their palms, or cut their cheeks, giving themselves a red light.
Upon seeing this, Shado decisively took out the magic scroll, and at the same time ordered Sami, Dean, and Devine to bless the team members, giving priority to the team members with shields.
At the same time, Xia Duo's arrows did not stop, but the orcs were blessed by the red light, and their physiques were greatly enhanced. More importantly, they seemed to be completely immune to pain.
While waving the stone ax in his hand to block the arrows, he completely ignored the traps underground and rushed straight towards Xia Duo and the others.
"After the last round of shooting, abandon the bow!"
In fact, when the orcs rushed out of the trap area, the shield-bearing team members in the front row had already thrown away their bows and arrows, and did not even draw out their one-handed swords. They held shields in both hands and stood ready.
Bump-bump-
There were several heavy muffled sounds in succession, and the shield-wielding team members in the front row were still knocked back a few steps by the orcs after blessing them with [Bear's Patience], [Ox's Brutal Strength], and [Cat's Elegance].
Fortunately, it was stabilized in time.
The gunmen behind also stabbed out the spears in their hands at the right time, but at this time, the orcs' reaction speed was faster than usual, and then the reaction force of the collision pushed them back, and at the same time, they still had time to swing the stone ax towards the spears.
Caught off guard, the heads of the two spears were immediately cut off.
"Change of formation!"
The arc-shaped front row that originally surrounded Xia Duo and others began to surround the orcs in order to increase the engagement area. At the same time, spears were thrust out at the moment the orcs collided or attacked.
After several rounds of attacks, the advantage gradually tilted towards Xia Duo.
Although the orcs who had been blessed with magic lost their sense of pain, they did not lose their minds. Their offensive momentum became weaker and weaker, and they seemed to have the idea of escape.
Xia Duo noticed this and immediately cast [Phantom Sound Technique]. The provocative sounds came from left or right, from front or back, teasing the orcs into a rage.
The other mage apprentices also used Sha Duo's instructions to cast attack spells. Although it was not necessarily fatal, it was enough to disrupt their attack rhythm.
The battle situation seemed to be getting more and more favorable to Xia Duo and the others. However, several consecutive "clicks" made Xia Duo's heart tremble, and then he heard Jibu shout:
"The shield can no longer hold up!"
"Me too!"
Four or five of the twelve shield-bearing team members shouted out, which immediately caused panic among the gun-wielding team members behind them, and some even had their gun heads accidentally chopped off by the orcs.
The main body of the territory's standard shield is made of a type of wood with a tight texture, and is covered with a layer of iron. It is normal for it to be violently attacked by elite orcs who have strengthened it, and it is normal for it to be unable to hold up.
But the current situation is a bit fatal. If there is no shield, the entire formation on Xia Duo's side will be scattered.
Even if we can capture these nine orcs in the end, we still don’t know how much it will cost. Will Xia Duo be among them?
"Stay steady first!"
Xia Duo shouted, he was determined not to let the front row fall.
In this case, either strengthen the shield or widen the gap as quickly as possible. The former is something Xia Duo cannot do, and the most direct way for the latter is to kill one or two orcs immediately.
As long as one or two orcs die, the other orcs won't be a problem.
