The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 79 The Orc Scout

Being able to play games without any worries in the forested wilderness is a luxury fantasy for all the residents of Faerun. All kinds of monsters and beasts make all the trekkers fearful and always worried. Then a deadly wolf or ogre rushes out from behind some bush or tree stump.

Misha'er didn't have this kind of worry, she happily ran in the jungle, jumped between the bushes, sometimes chased a jumping rabbit in a hurry, and sometimes frightened the squirrel squatting on the tree branch, the little girl bared her teeth and shouted He made strange noises, without paying any attention to the branches and grass around him.

The little girl clenched her fists and screamed, "Ha!" Then she looked at the pikas running around, happily jumping and stamping her little feet and laughing. Meng's William, as a guard and thug, as long as there is a blind beast who dares to stare at the little guy, he will not hesitate to rush up to punch and kick, so that the other party can learn the "rules".William was holding a light single-shot crossbow in his hand. It was the low-grade one that he bought from the one-eyed dwarf's house. The slack crossbow had been readjusted by William after being left for a long time. Used together with Misha.

The little girl took the crossbow handed over by her elder brother, shot casually without even looking at the target, then dropped the empty crossbow and rushed forward, leaving only William standing aside, dumbfounded, this girl is too innocent The boss is right, with her hunting method, even a blind cat is less likely to encounter a dead mouse.William picked up the empty crossbow and reinstalled the arrows. At this time, the little girl was standing curiously under the big tree with the crossbow arrows and looked up. A big gray cat was lying on the branch of the tree eager to try. Is the little girl brave or ignorant, or is this big cat not arrogant enough?

I don't know if it's because the big cat is not hungry or for some other reason, but it didn't jump down directly, but stared at the little girl's head with the same curiosity, as if it was "studying" the little girl with the "horns" on her head. what creature.But its "research" can only go so far, because a taller and stronger existence also came under the tree and threatened the life of the big cat.

William unceremoniously pointed the crossbow at the big cat. When he was about to pull the crossbow, the little girl stopped him by pulling the corner of William's clothes. She looked at her brother pitifully with wide eyes, William Pretentiously put away the crossbow and smiled: "Okay! This time you have the final say! I don't want to intervene!" The little girl raised her head cheerfully, and screamed strangely at the big cat and fox pretending to be tiger. The big guy on the ground didn't respond to this, it directly ignored the provocative little guy, and paid more attention to the big guy behind her.

Misha'er was unable to disturb the big cat after several consecutive "threats", let alone scare it away. She once again pitifully turned to her brother to complain: "William! The bad guy won't talk to me! He's not afraid of Misha What about the 'Roar of the King'!" As he spoke, he made a frightening gesture of "Ha!".

What a naughty little guy!William said with a smile: "That's good! Let's see my brother avenge you! Hey! Cover your ears first! It will be terrible!" After speaking and making a gesture of covering her ears, the little girl quickly hugged her head with her small hands , and then felt that the effect was not very good, so he inserted two slender index fingers into the ear holes.

Seeing that the little girl had already covered her ears, William took a deep breath, held his head up and his tongue burst out, and shouted loudly, "Drink!" Like thunder, the terrifying sound waves echoed in the mountains, even covering his ears All the little girls were so shocked that their little faces turned pale and panicked, let alone the big cat who bore the brunt.

But all felines have extremely keen sense of hearing. This big cat suffered a lot from William's violent drinking. His eyes were dazed and his whole body trembled. He almost fell off the tree with his head. Bark, after howling in horror a few times, wagged its tail between its legs and wanted to retreat, but when the big cat was about to jump to another big tree, the unrecovered sense of balance caused it to fall down sadly.

The big cat that fell to the ground couldn't help howling, turned over and got up, and fled in a panic.William smiled and watched the little girl want to say something, but coughed involuntarily, but the roar just now was too violent, and it hurt the vocal cords a little bit, it really is that life can't be too arrogant!
Misha squinted her eyes and looked at William, who couldn't stop coughing. She was thinking about a question. When would she be as strong as her brother? She quietly gestured at the height difference between herself and her brother, and gave up this unrealistic idea with a flick of her mouth.

The little girl resumed her previous laughter, and she continued to disturb the normal life order of the "forest dwellers" happily. Of course, it would be more perfect if her brother could not always cough, and William once again felt the sadness of self-harm , he vowed that he would never show his power again.

If you want to talk about the most hated creature in the Northland, of course it must be the orcs. Barbarism is their nature, cruelty is their motto, predators are their pronouns, and robbers are their profession.Aggressive humanoid creatures, orcs are the greatest threat to all cities, villages and settlements in the North. These chaotic and evil combinations will occupy and destroy every village and town they can conquer, burning, killing and looting without restraint , doing whatever they want, unscrupulous, they always smash what they can't take with them, so that others can't even think of benefiting.Orcs will submit to the strong and be driven by them, but they will always run amok when their masters are not looking.

When William's throat was less painful, a group of ugly orcs appeared.This is a reconnaissance team of orcs, twelve orcs with thick and rough hair, tattered animal skins, and protruding muscles. With a low forehead and a protruding lower jaw, long tusks protruding from the lower lip, the tusks almost touching the nose, made the orc look like a cross between a human and a wild boar.

These orcs stared at the little girl greedily with evil red eyes. They had already ignored William, even though this human was as tall as them.In their view, quantity is an insurmountable gap.The little girl hid behind her brother and looked at this group of ugly monsters in horror, because these orcs were doing various intimidating actions to intimidate them. Although they are omnivorous creatures, orcs think that meat is more important than everything else, and they prefer The taste of blood, although not as bloodthirsty as vampires, orcs still like to drink the blood of humans, dwarves or elves.

Orcs believe that the more frightened the victim, the better the blood, because "fear" flows in the veins of the prey, and the blood of those creatures that are frightened to death is the tastiest.These uninvited guests are discussing the distribution of prey while doing horrific actions. Raping human women or girls, drinking human blood is their pleasure.

There is nothing fancy about the orc disputes, strength and fists are the basis for their distribution, so the three strongest monster bosses started a fist fight in front of William.

William patted the little girl's helmet lightly. His smile made the little girl no longer afraid. Instead, he watched the three orcs' performances with great interest. However, orcs are not obedient. When the three bosses were arguing, they launched an attack. They wanted to chop all their prey into pieces.

Nine orcs rushed forward brandishing tattered weapons, and William put his hand on the handle of the saber.
