Chapter 22 Well-equipped
Gui Nivea's reaction was quick, and she drew her bow and arrow while shouting, and she did have the precision of the elf archer in the story.

The arrow left the string and shot at one of the roaring orc warriors. It precisely entered the eye sockets from the gap in the helmet, and the orc warrior immediately fell to the ground.

However, Guinivea didn't use a short bow suitable for rapid fire, but a long bow with superior range and power. Even a skilled archer would have a limited shooting frequency.

There was only time to shoot down two orcs, and the rest of the orcs were approaching. Guinivea had no choice but to put away her longbow, and drew a sharp and slender stabbing sword from her waist.

In the face of a strong enemy, a war hammer that can crush the enemy's skull is obviously a better weapon. The rapier exists more as a ceremonial weapon, and it is really not very useful on the battlefield.

Fortunately, Tina was well prepared. She continued to chant spells and waved her hand. A series of sharp ice edges were formed and shot out from her hand, together with a large number of ice crystal fragments that blocked the sight. The orc warriors present immediately They all lost their vision, and at the same time had to turn sideways, using their bodies to block the flying ice edge.

However, the long-range attacks of the orcs in the rear did not stop because of this, and the arrows were shot out with hot fireballs, heading straight for the two of them.

From Tang Zhao's perspective behind the two, the two and Cynthia did not dodge. The woman named Tina had a silver light on her hand, which seemed to be charging the shield in front of them.

The arrows pierced through the ice fog, and were still stuck in front of them, while the fireball was consumed a lot in the ice fog, and the rest of the crossbow failed to break through the shield defense, and gradually dissipated in front of them.

Taking advantage of this gap, Tina and Guinivea pulled Pickle to retreat.

During the retreat, Tina continued to shoot ice edges into the ice mist.

Seeing this situation, Tang Zhao stood up and ran to them in a few steps.

He also saw that, regardless of the level of half-elves and warriors, this spellcaster was enough to settle a small group of orcs.

It takes a lot of magic power to maintain the shield, but Tina, who blocked many attacks, is still calm, which shows that she still has a lot of magic power.

She has cast spells without chanting several times. Except for some warlocks who rely on their own blood to cast spells, those who can use this skill are all middle-to-high-level spellcasters.

In other words, she could intervene in Cynthia's animal conversation technique, and his conversation with Cynthia was likely known before.

In this case, Tang Zhao must perform well and leave a good impression on the other party.

Playing stupid and pretending to be stunned means distrusting these human beings, and he is not sure whether the other party will hold grudges.

Another wall of fire rose between Tang Zhao and the orcs, blocking things coming and going. Tang Zhao did not take it lightly, and was still on guard nervously.

This situation didn't last long. Half a minute later, Tina removed the firewall.

There were only three corpses left in the open space where the orcs were originally standing. Two of them were pierced into the head by a bow and arrow, and the other was directly pierced into a hedgehog by an ice edge.

Thick smoke rose from the woods behind the corpse, and the pungent and choking smell also blocked everyone's sight.

It seems that the orc team also knew very well, and they didn't want to fight after encountering a strong opponent, so they chose to retreat directly.

Not long after they finished their work, three armored warriors also rushed out of the cave with their swords raised, looking menacing, looking like they were about to fight to the death with the orcs outside.

The condition is not bad, there is no fatal injury of broken arms or legs, they are just a little out of breath.

"You three, come here for treatment. The arrows of those orcs are poisoned. I have reason to suspect that their swords and spears are also poisoned."

When the three of them heard this, they didn't doubt that he was there, and immediately came forward, ready to receive treatment.

A soft white light rose from Tina's hands, split into three paths and merged into the bodies of the three.

"Well, he was also shot by an arrow, can you please trouble me."

Tina shook her head: "No need, he has been detoxified long ago. Those poisonous arrows only hurt him physically."

Of course, the other party did not owe Tang Zhao, but Tang Zhao inevitably wanted to complain.

Even though he had enough energy to use a protective spell, he skipped the defensive step and gave him a detoxification spell, even if he was shot by a bow and arrow.

Francois said in a serious voice: "Things are not right, completely wrong. It is no longer an issue of law and order for lycanthropes. How can there be orc troops here?"

Those orcs were not bandit refugees who lacked food and clothing, but soldiers in uniform armor.

Henry and Louis turned around and drilled back into the cave, dragging out five orc corpses one after another.

Then, they began to examine these bodies.

An argument broke out between the three, because the equipment on the dead orc was extremely special.

The armor is not the half-body leather armor that the orc army is equipped on a large scale, but the exquisite full-body mail armor. The size is just right, and there are so many of them. It cannot be snatched, it can only be specially forged for these orcs.

The short spears they used were not ordinary items, they were forged from gray steel produced by the dwarf city-state. Although the dwarf craftsmen did not personally make the gray steel, the gray steel was not very good, but it was extremely rare among the orcs.

Dwarves hate orcs extremely, and no matter how depraved the dwarves are, it is difficult to do business with orcs. So many people are equipped with uniform equipment, and it doesn't look like they were stolen, unless the orcs ransacked the entire dwarf fortress, but that is rare, because O There are only a few dwarf city-states near Lan.

Recycling the arrows of the orcs, the arrows are actually made of anti-magic metal.

This kind of metal is only produced in the free city of human beings, Telia. It can greatly weaken the magic of level 3 and below, and the price of the metal is not much lower than that of gold of equal weight.

Telia is in the south of Oran, and the orcs are in the north of Oran. There is really no chance of contact between the two sides.

As long as you are not stupid, you can tell that there must be some people behind this team of orcs to help, otherwise the orcs would not be able to get so many things.

One or two things can be called a coincidence, but such a group of orcs appeared near the capital, and there are so many coincidences at the same time. The IQ of the three of them is no problem, and there is definitely something tricky in it.

As for who this traitor is, the three hold their own opinions, but there is one consensus - they must return to the capital as soon as possible, otherwise something serious may happen.

If there is a team of orcs, there may be a second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth team. If they are allowed to sneak into the capital and wreak havoc inside, the consequences will be disastrous.

For this reason, the three youths each carried a corpse of an orc on their backs, and prepared to go straight home to inform the soldiers and nobles in the capital.

The thing about lycanthropy is indeed important, but it is at the bandit level.The orc matter is at the level of foreign enemy invasion. If it is not handled properly, the people of the whole country will be in danger.

Cynthia was curious: "The three of them have left, don't you follow?"

"It's fine if they go. I'm the daughter of an elf diplomat, and I can't speak at all on that occasion, and Tina is the daughter of a businessman, so I don't have much say in that regard."

Guinivea smiled and clapped her hands: "At the same time, didn't I promise you about the carriage? Please forgive them for being negligent when they were in a hurry, and we will handle this matter well."

Tang Zhaoze looked at Tina meaningfully, but the other party ignored him.

The daughter of a businessman in her teens and twenties can have strength above the fourth level, no one will believe it when she is said.

But it was obvious that he wanted to hide himself, so Tang Zhao didn't say much.
