Chapter 36 Continue on the road
What''s going on?
The orcs changed the direction of attack, and the caravan that had been supporting them suddenly felt the pressure lightened. Only then did they come back to their senses and looked forward, and then they saw a loud voice wearing terrifying armor among the orcs. Swing your war hammer and fight against the fearsome orcs.
“Hiss——! What kind of monster is that?”
Seeing the battle in front of him, one of the soldiers took a breath and exclaimed in a low voice, while the others had similar thoughts. You must know that in the minds of humans, orcs are a symbol of savagery, ferocity, and burliness. In fact, it''s pretty much the same. Most orcs are tall, powerful, cruel and bloodthirsty beings. Generally speaking, when humans encounter orcs, there is little to gain from a frontal attack.
But the current black knight is not like that.
He was seen waving the thunderous war hammer in his hand, knocking the attacking orcs to the ground one by one. The dazzling lightning and constant explosions made the battlefield in front of him look like a **** spewing flames. But instead of shrinking from this, the orcs became even more excited. This was the battle they were pursuing!
Only the strong are worthy of challenge!
?But it''s a pity that Duanmuhuai doesn''t intend to WAAAAAGH with these orcs.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, Duanmu Huai seems to be more violent than these orcs at this moment, in fact, Duanmu Huai is very calm inside at this moment, without any emotional fluctuations.
On the one hand, this is not the first time he has fought these monsters. As a veteran player, he has long been familiar with them.
?On the other hand, this is also a way for the judge to protect himself.
I have said before that it is difficult for subspace evil gods to directly interfere with the main universe, so the most common method they use is to arouse the other party''s emotions and lure them into corruption. In response to the spiritual temptations of the evil gods, players also summarized four clauses, commonly known as the Four Commandments of Judgment.
Fight without being mad, think without being blind, be pure without being dirty, be happy without being indulgent.
Fight without going crazy - you can fight, but don''t fall into fanaticism, otherwise it will be easy for the tyrannical **** to take advantage of you.
Think without thinking - you can think, but don''t think too much, otherwise you will easily be played by the deceitful god.
?Pure but not dirty - Make yourself clean, don''t be as dirty as a beggar, and you can stay away from the **** of filth.
?Be happy but not indulge - you can have fun, but don''t indulge yourself, lest you fall into the trap of the **** of desire.
??As long as players can act in accordance with these four terms, it will be difficult for the evil **** to seize the opportunity and influence them. The bottom line is, everything must be measured and don’t go all the way to the end!
“唰————!”
While Duanmu Huai was fighting and killing on the battlefield, Ogis also appeared quietly from behind. Then she stretched out her hands, and the silk threads on her fingers flashed past, and then dozens of dolls emerged out of thin air and moved towards The orc army in front of them rushed over and blocked the low-level orcs with no skills outside.
Soon, the situation of the war changed again. The orcs had forced the caravan into crisis, but they themselves also suffered a lot of losses. But now the orcs were backstabbed by Duanmuhuai, Ojisi and the puppet army, and suffered heavy losses again. Although the orcs are basically passionate sects who will fight to the death, no matter how hard they think, they cannot create things out of thin air, let alone unlock the invincible plug-in for themselves. So in the end, these orcs were beaten to death by Duanmu Huai one after another...
It can be seen that individual subjective will cannot affect objective reality, and WAAAAAAGH also has limits.
“Boom!!”
When the last orc fell to the ground and turned into a corpse, the entire battle came to an end.
Duanmuhuai took off his helmet and breathed a sigh of relief. These orcs who refused to retreat were really annoying. Even the ratmen knew how to run away and collapse after being defeated, but for the orcs, annihilating them all was meaningless - anyway, the value of their lives lay in fighting.
Winning or losing will be discussed separately.
So fighting with orcs is really painful. There is no sense of accomplishment if you win, and it is even more humiliating if you lose.
“Thank you for your help, this brave knight……”
At this moment, the people from the caravan also came over cautiously. Although the Duanmu locust tree was indeed very fierce, at least it was a human being, which made them relieved. If the other party was an orc or some other monster, that would be another matter.
"You are welcome."
Seeing that the other party didn''t react much, Duanmuhuai also put on his helmet again.
"After all, we have to take this road, and we can''t let these orcs cause trouble here."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai turned around and saw the young knight holding his sword and planning to run away. He snorted coldly and made a gesture to Ogis. The latter raised her little finger slightly, and then saw the young knight. With a wailing sound, his whole body was **** with silk threads and he was pulled over again.
"Still want to run away? You are a loser. You don''t even dare to fight, but now you have the courage to run away?"
Duanmu Huai stared at the young knight and snorted coldly. The latter was trembling on the ground and did not dare to speak.
At this moment, the caravan leader subconsciously looked at the young knight, and then his eyes widened in surprise.
“Master Louis? Aren’t you Master Louis?!”
"…………Why?"
?Hearing the caravan leader shouting, the young knight was also startled and hurriedly raised his head. After seeing the caravan leader clearly in front of him, his face turned pale and he quickly turned his head, pretending not to recognize him.
“Do you know each other?”
?Seeing this scene, Duanmuhuai asked with interest, and the caravan leader hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes, Lord Knight, may I ask...what exactly is this..."
"Oh, it''s not a big deal. It''s just that yesterday this guy said that I was some despicable devil and wanted to fight me again and again. Then I knocked him down and tied him up as a prisoner."
“That’s it……”
Hearing this, the leader of the caravan suddenly relaxed.
"To be honest, he is actually the son of the president of our Chamber of Commerce..."
“Oh, so you want to go back?”
“This, if possible...”
"I''ve given it back to you. Keeping this kind of waste is just a waste of food."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai looked at Ogis, who also manipulated the thread again and threw the young knight directly at the feet of the caravan leader. Then the leader of the caravan, wiping cold sweat on his face, motioned to his men to take back the young knight who was wailing. It wasn''t until the young knight left that he solemnly saluted Duanmu Huai again.
"Thank you so much, this kind-hearted knight. If it weren''t for you, I''m afraid the young master would have died long ago..."
“Oh? Has this guy always been such an idiot?”
"this………"
Facing Duanmuhuai’s inquiry, the caravan leader was a little embarrassed, but he still explained the situation to Duanmuhuai in a low voice. As expected, that brainless young knight was the son of the president of their chamber of commerce, the "Sword in the Lake". He had loved listening to adventure stories of knights since he was a child, and even pestered his father to find knights to train him. However, this young man obviously has no talent. Originally, everyone just looked at him. It is normal for children to dream of becoming a knight and they will mature when they grow up.
That’s what they thought at the time.
??But what people didn’t expect was that as he got older, this guy became more and more obsessed with knight stories. He even often walked around wearing knight armor and carrying a sword, imagining that an old man in the city was an evil witch, or that there was an evil dragon sealed underground in Caracason, just like Don Quixote. It caused a lot of ridiculous chaos and trouble.
This also gave his parents a headache, but they couldn''t stop him from becoming a knight. After all, in Bretonnia, becoming a knight was "politically correct." If his parents stopped him from becoming a knight, and this big mouth went out and talked nonsense, then the Chamber of Commerce would Bretonnia is doomed. So they could only lock this guy in the villa to prevent him from going out to cause trouble.
I don’t know how this guy slipped out... If he hadn’t met Duanmuhuai, he would probably have turned into a corpse.
After all, although Bretonnia is an idyllic country, it is only limited to cities and nearby rural towns. In this medieval civilization environment, each civilization gathering point is basically an uninhabited wilderness. There are often thieves and bandits, including orcs and goblins.
??This LV3 weakling doesn''t even have a magic weapon to protect himself. He will be instantly killed when he goes out.
Duanmu Huai also explained the situation on his side. When he heard that they were from the empire and wanted to find a place to escape disaster in Bretonnia, the leader of the caravan also patted his chest and promised that he would wait until they return to Karaka. If they are loose, they will report to the president. Although Sword in the Lake is not a big chamber of commerce, it is still okay to help a little.
?An extra door is always a good thing. Duanmuhuai originally had the same idea, so the two parties decided to act together and go to Carakazon. There was no need for that idiot to be a guide now, so Duanmu Huai decisively sent him back to the caravan. With this guy''s stupid appearance, he might have led the way and led him to the orc''s den.
Of course, before setting off, the caravan did not forget to set a fire on the battlefield, burning the corpses of both the enemy and ours as well as the entire ground. This is not because Bretonnia has a tradition of cremation. As mentioned before, orcs are essentially a type of fungus. Before death, their bodies will disperse a large number of spores, and then these spores will fall on the ground. Then a group of little orcs will sprout.
??If the caravan doesn''t take action to eradicate the roots now, when they return the same way, they will only see a larger group of orcs heading towards them WAAAAAAGH.
“Master, what happened to that human being?”
?The group of people went on the road again, and at this time, Ogis also raised her own questions to Duanmu Huai in confusion.
“You mean that idiot? What’s the problem?”
? Duanmuhuai is not surprised that Ogis has questions. After all, Ogis’s main mission is to observe human beings, experience them, and feel their souls. And the various manifestations of human beings must be full of all kinds of doubts in her eyes.
“I don’t understand why he mustered up the courage to challenge you before, but immediately chose to surrender after his failure?”
?Ogis was obviously puzzled.
"It''s very simple, because this guy is afraid. Don''t look at his enthusiasm at first, and his appearance of fearlessness. In fact, it''s all an illusion. When he first attacked me, he really wanted to be unsuccessful. He just wanted to die. But the second time after that, he had turned into fighting for his own self-esteem... because he didn''t allow himself to just run away with his tail between his legs."
“But after that, he still followed us?”
“Don’t give up, that’s what a dabbler is like. He can’t muster up the courage to come up and die, and he’s not willing to run away in despair, so he plans to follow and see if there are any other opportunities.”
Duanmuhuai curled his lips.
"That''s why after being caught, he surrendered so easily. He was just pretending to be like that. He was a paper tiger, and he was slapped flat. It''s just that he didn''t want to admit that he was a coward who was afraid of death. , so he would look for excuses such as being willing to become a servant of the devil to smear his face. "
After all, chuunibyou are all like this. They like skulls, enemies of the world, and death heavy metal. They look depraved and cool... and that guy is no exception.
“Human beings are really complicated…”
?After listening to Duanmuhuai’s explanation, Ogis couldn’t help but sigh.
?In response to this, Duanmu Huai just laughed.
After all, it is so.
