The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

Xu Lai couldn't sleep today. Although he had been taking advantage of the orcs over the past few days, he had also been acting with them.

Not until the orcs had assembled their entire army and reports of cattle and sheep deaths came from the hiding cave did Xu Lai regroup the scattered forces.

The reconnaissance eyes hidden in the cave have been extinguished, but Aini's men reported that the cattle and sheep have been successfully taken away by the orcs.

Xu Lai didn't know when the orcs would deal with these cattle and sheep, but he knew that once these cattle and sheep were taken away, they would be exposed soon.

Orcs are not humans. Even if they form an army, they are still far inferior to humans in terms of order.

The orcs might not dare to disobey military orders, but no one from top to bottom would care about some harmless things, such as stealing a sheep.

This problem is likely to occur not only to orcs, but even well-trained human armies.

This is what large-scale poisoning is like. If the timing of the poison release cannot be controlled, it is extremely easy to be exposed.

Xu Lai has not tested the efficacy of the new poison yet. He just hopes that the poison he invested tens of millions of gold coins in will not be wasted.

In addition to Xu Lai, there were also many people on the city wall of Wanshi City who could not sleep all night.

The elf Reina, the commander-in-chief, invited several Pegasus knights to take her high into the sky.

Although the orcs have air supremacy, their flying soldiers dare not approach the area along the Stone City.

There are terrifying shooters here. Once the flying altitude drops below one thousand meters, it will immediately suffer a devastating blow.

At the same time, the angel troops led by Elvy and Lena's griffin troops have been guarding this airspace strictly.

It took the orcs countless lives to test the strength of Stone City.

Sachs was not yet ready for a full-scale siege. After Stone Castle was upgraded to Stone City, the height and durability of the city walls were greatly improved.

If the city walls were not blown down and the orc warriors were forced to climb them, the casualties would be extremely tragic.

Therefore, Sachs set up his temporary camp very far away, at least ten kilometers away from the Stone City.

Even if you stand on the arrow tower of Hard Stone City, you can only see the flickering lights of the camp in the distance. You can only see more clearly if you fly into the sky.

In fact, Lena was not as nervous as Xu Lai, because compared to Xu Lai, she had a way out.

To put it bluntly, if Xu Lai was defeated by the orcs, it would be more beneficial to her.

Because from then on, she had no constraints and could choose her own life.

However, whether you are a human or an elf, you cannot be without conscience.

She was rescued by Xu Lai, and after the rescue, he treated her without reservation.

Weapons and equipment, even divine tools, can be given to oneself without blinking an eye.

The same was true for the army. Even Xu Lai himself did not form a legion. The first legion was completely handed over to her.

There were no cities of the Barrier Camp on the grassland, so he simply left one of the twelve main cities of the dungeon for her, allowing her to obtain a large amount of resources for building the elven city and the most critical Barrier Heart.

Reina had no idea how to repay this trust. It seemed that anything she did except death would be inadequate.

The appearance of the elves made Reina inexplicably scared.

She couldn't give up her mother's family, and would never allow herself to leave Xu Lai at this moment, so she simply used the so-called oath to confine herself tightly.

Although Lena was not nervous, she still couldn't help feeling worried.

"General Elvy, when the battle starts, the enemy's flying units will definitely not be affected. This is also one of the variables tonight."

Elvy, who was guarding nearby, said, "Xu Lai said that he has the Holy Light Knights to protect him, so there won't be any problems. He asked me to stay in the city to prevent the enemy's flying troops from taking the opportunity to enter the city."

Reina smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I have ordered all the shooters to rest during the day today.

If the enemy does the opposite, I will make sure they never return.

And since Xu Lai has appointed me as the commander-in-chief, then General Elvi, you must obey my command. I order you to lead the angel troops and the griffin troops to attack the orc army at night."

Elvy hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I'll just take the angels with me. I'll leave the griffin to you."

Griffins are not easy to obtain, there are not many of them in the wild, and as flying soldiers, most people are reluctant to sell them.

Therefore, the entire Qingfeng Legion only has more than 600 members, not even a thousand.

Reina shook her head and said, “Less than 700 griffins are of no use to me.

But if you lead them to dive in, I can't say how many there are, but it should be more than enough to kill several thousand orcs.

The key is that it is night time now. The poison plus the sneak attack, plus a large number of orc deaths, will cause chaos, which may have a decisive impact on this battle."

"But this is the only air force we have, Xu Lai said before."

Lena said: "I am between the orc camp and the city. With my defensive talent, the griffins won't suffer too many casualties."

Elvy was silent for a moment and then said, "This is too dangerous for you. Xu Lai left me here to protect you."

Reina shook her head and said, "I am hiding in the bushes with a few Pegasus Knights. There is no danger here. It is you who stay by my side that will attract attention.

Besides, if danger comes, I can always summon a dragon and take the opportunity to escape back to the city. I won't die if I get touched by anyone, even though I have all the magic weapons and defensive talents!"

Although she had the authority to command, Lena did not want to force Elvy to do so, and her previous orders were only intended to absolve Elvy of responsibility.

After all, in addition to being Xu Lai's first general, Elvy is also his woman, and her status is completely different from that of an ordinary general.

"Ok, I see."

After saying this, Elvy and Reina fell silent at the same time.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not inform Xu Lai, so as to avoid any objections from Xu Lai.

An hour later, the sky became completely dark, to the point where nothing could be seen without lights.

The orcs' campfires had also gone out a little. Except for the patrollers and night watchmen, everyone should have gone to rest.

But at this moment, countless orcs in the camp began to groan.

"It hurts, my stomach hurts so much..."

Whether they were low-level orcs lying directly on the grass, or the few high-level orcs who were qualified and lived in the few tents.

Or they could be the orc warriors on patrol, and the orc high-ranking officials who are still discussing matters in the military tent.

Everyone who ate beef or mutton tonight began to feel a dull pain in the stomach.

At the beginning, there were only orcs who couldn't bear the pain, and gradually, more and more orcs began to lose health points. Even those high-level orcs with better physiques suffered from unbearable abdominal pain and couldn't help wailing.

The orc camp immediately became chaotic, and even Beast King Sachs himself felt something strange in his body. Unlike the others, Beast King Sachs had a very strong physique and was very resistant to abnormal conditions and toxins.

Just like Xu Lai, the poison that could easily kill ordinary people only caused Xu Lai to lose a hundred or two hundred health points.

Even he felt something strange in his body, and even the shamans present looked troubled, so one can imagine what would happen to the ordinary orcs in the camp.

"What exactly is going on?"

Sachs spoke up, and the orcs present were either high-level heroes, tribal chieftains, or high-level mages.

After all, the poison that Xu Lai released was diluted and the formula had been adjusted, so it would not kill them in a short time.

"It's highly poisonous. Judging from the body's reaction, it's a poison specifically targeting us orcs. It's extremely difficult to deal with."

As an 8th-level shaman, Augu has some abilities.

I don’t know how he did it, but he managed to force all the toxins in his body into his little finger.

That skinny little finger looked extremely dark under the bright light.

Aug took out the dagger without hesitation and cut off his little finger.

The shaman's healing skills cannot compare to those of the priest, but he still has a way to heal a severed little finger.

However, he could use magic to force out the poison, but the others couldn't.

Moreover, all those present were high-ranking officials of the stronghold. If they all fell at once, the stronghold would collapse.

Therefore, Augu joined forces with two other level 8 shamans to release a large-scale natural spell, group detoxification.

None of the three of them are heroes and do not have the corresponding spell expertise, so naturally they cannot cover everyone with their spells.

Even if they combined the strength of the three of them, they could only cast this group spell within a radius of about 3 or 4 kilometers, which was enough to cover the vast majority of orcs.

The detoxification technique had some effect and removed some of the toxins, but as Augu had said before, the poison was aimed at the orc group and could not be completely removed.

After all, it was something that Xu Lai spent a lot of money to create. It would be useless if it could be broken by a few shamans with just a spell.

After the three shamans cast their spells, they all fell to the ground. It was Aug who spoke again:

"We have jointly unleashed a large-scale group detoxification technique. Even if we cannot completely remove the poison, I think it will have a certain effect.

Your Majesty, can you order the other high priests and priests to plant healing totems throughout the camp and see if the healing effects of the totems can help us get through the night."

Another shaman also said: "As long as we can survive tonight, we orcs will be able to produce certain antibodies.

Although I will continue to be entangled by this poison in the future, it will not be life-threatening in the end, and I will always be able to find a solution."

“I’m afraid I won’t make it through tonight.

This poison must have been administered by humans. How could they tolerate us slowly treating it?"

The last shaman spoke, and all the orcs' eyes were focused on Parame, the only mage on the field who seemed to be fine.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Am I going to poison you? Even if I have the ability to do so, I can't say I can poison everyone in the camp!"

The Beast King glanced at him and winked at the person below him, and the Axe King Monroka immediately struck down with his axe.

Fortunately, he used the back of the axe, so he didn't chop the person down directly with the axe.

"Bi Qiman, check the location of the surname Xu for me immediately."

Biziman is an ogre high priest. Because Xu Lai is cursed with the ogre's blood, his position is exposed by the ogre's magic.

"No need to check, I've already heard him!"

Kenro Hag suddenly stood up, summoned his huge ice wolf outside the tent, and rushed towards his camp.

The wolf riders' camp was not in the same place as the orc army's because the wolf riders were not responsible for attacking the city, but for harassment and looting.

It’s just that Kenlo Hag came to discuss matters every day, so he had dinner in the big tent.

At this time, he no longer cared about the guards around him and only wanted to rush back to the camp and train the troops.

But as he just said, Xu Lai and his men had already taken action when the riot broke out in the orc camp.

For the first 5 or 6 kilometers, Xu Lai and his companions were just running normally. In order to accumulate more physical strength for the charge, their speed was relatively slow.

When they were only 3 or 4 kilometers away from the orc camp, all the knights no longer had to worry, and led by the only 9th-level knight, they rode their horses and rushed towards the orc camp.

After a few days of trembling, there were no new knights below level 4 in Xu Lai's team. All of them were at least apprentice knights of level 4.

For this charge, Xu Lai gathered all the strength of the knights. Not counting the high-level knights of level 7 and 8, there were more than ten thousand of them.

Including the great knights, heroic knights, heroes, rangers, paladins, holy light knights, and wind knights, there are more than 15,000 of them.

Even if these 3 cavalrymen were arranged with only one rider every two meters, they could still form a line of more than 30 meters, or a full kilometers.

Of course, there was no 2-meter distance between the knights, and they were not all lined up in a single row.

But even so, when these fifteen thousand knights charged, the entire earth began to tremble.

As for the orc camp, they had almost no ability to resist.

The only lucky thing for the orcs is that when recruiting soldiers, they have no requirements for food, as long as it is edible.

Therefore, precious meat was not allocated to these recruited soldiers.

Now, they are the only soldiers in the entire camp who can resist the cavalry charge.

However, due to the chaos in the orc camp and the orc commander in charge was unable to provide effective command due to the poison and severe pain.

In addition, it was pitch black at night, and the recruited soldiers were scattered all over the place, making it impossible to form an effective resistance.

A surprise attack under the cover of night, facing the charging knights, even if there were no special circumstances, the orcs might not have an easy time.

Now it is even more impossible to stop the charging cavalry.

Many knights didn't even have time to hand over their lances. Countless orcs almost fell directly on the grass and were trampled into meat paste by the horses.

The only place that allowed this group of knights to stop for a while was the large area at the rear that was set aside specifically for the giants to rest.

The giant who was good at long-range attacks was rushed in front of the cavalry even with the ultimate defense of the Beast King.

Facing Tahan's ignoring defense and Xu Lai's god-level offensive skills, his performance was not much better than that of an ordinary orc, and it was nothing more than a few seconds of delay. (End of this chapter)
