I'm not that kind of orc

"What did you tell me yourself before you came here? You kept saying that you can't do things that arouse people's doubts casually from your standpoint, but suddenly you started to do it yourself. What's the trouble?" I stared Eyes down on her.

"You have also seen that it was their work that made a mistake, and they were the first to attack Feilan."

"Then you are different and you moved your hands without saying a word!" I rubbed my brows, "If there was a conflict just now, how would you end it?"

"Brock, think about it differently. If it were your sister who encountered this kind of thing, are you sure you wouldn't do anything to those people?"

"I really can't." I replied seriously, "I will go to rescue them in reverse, because anyone who dares to twist Igna's arm will definitely be broken by her in reverse." Then I rolled my eyes, "I said, haven't you been calm all the time? What kind of madness is this all of a sudden?"

"I don't care about the things this girl caused by herself, but it's different if it's other people's problems." Roland looked at me and said calmly, "I'm not a good-tempered person in the first place, Brock."

...I remembered, I heard her say this sentence.In the past, when Tolivia's adjutant, Testa, pulled out a sword at the door of her office and clashed with me, she also wrapped Testa with vines without saying a word, and almost stripped her naked.

"Hey, that's enough." Feilan murmured to me with her arms folded, her voice was obviously resentful, "I didn't see you jumping out to save me just now..."

"But she started before I finished yelling!" I shook my head with a wry smile.

Doubtful (5)

"So what happened? They were fine yesterday, why did these people suddenly lose their nerves today?" Feilan finally asked about it, "In retrospect, when I came here, I passed by The patrolling people are also staring at me."

I simply explained to her the incident in which the team of the Wolf Head Clan was killed.

As a result, her expression froze when she heard it: "Hey, all the staff were murdered inexplicably, and there were bloodstains without a body. This sounds like a horror story..."

"It's not a story now, it's a real thing." I reminded her earnestly, "And it may not only happen there. The killing of the wolf head clan's team shows that the enemy used some means to infiltrate this tribe. Something like this is going to happen here, and that's why people are so sensitive."

After hearing this, Feilan's face lost some color, and the girl was still as unintimidated as ever.

"If you are afraid, you can sleep with me at night." Roland, who was sorting out materials at the table, suddenly said to Feilan.

"Who are you talking about... scared?" Feilan obviously had no confidence when she said this.

"I'm not joking. I can feel that the other party deliberately made that kind of attack. There should be a greater purpose to make everyone here become a war. Speaking of which, the best time to do it should be now when we can't find their infiltration method to suspect each other, maybe tonight." Roland said solemnly, "You'd better stay with me and Miria tonight, I am going to set up an enchantment in the camp, and Miriam and the investigation team will be in charge of the night watch, so that we can protect your safety."

"Oh..." Feilan muttered in a low voice, then raised her hand and pointed at me nervously, "Wait, does this guy sleep with us too? What if he acts like a beast at night..."

I raised my hand and interrupted her: "Don't worry, I won't sleep after this kind of thing happened, and I will patrol around the camp."

However, everyone understands that it is the worst and most helpless choice to delay this matter until the opponent is ready to attack. The opponent has the means to ambush and kill even the most elite wolf cavalry. Not a small casualty.

What's more troublesome is that the nerves of both the Shouya clan and the outsiders are now stretched to the extreme by this suspicious situation. Just like just now, a mistake in the handover may lead to a misfire.

"...It's impossible not to find out how the other party infiltrates to obtain information immediately." I rubbed my chin and pondered.

"But what's the difficulty in obtaining information in this kind of place? This lady can get some familiars here to inquire about information." Feilan said disdainfully.

Unlike the beast souls summoned by our orc shamans, the familiars made by elves can share the senses with their owners. They are indeed an excellent means of information collection. Both Roland and Feilan have used familiars to collect information.And there are elf sinners among the enemies, and they have a way to use this method.And the orcs don't know much about elves' spells. If they can successfully mix the familiar into the orc tribe, they will indeed be able to obtain information.

But Roland shook his head at her: "It's not that easy. Don't forget that the familiar created by magic cannot be too far away from its master. This reserved area is too large, and there is nowhere to hide around it. If you don't sneak into the tribe first Internally, there is no way to use this method to inquire about intelligence.”

"Then it's okay if I come in incognito?"

"It's not that easy. The tribal borders are strictly guarded. The guards and patrols are all equipped with wargs, and the scents floating hundreds of meters away will be detected by the wargs." I also shook my head and refuted, "The giant beast There are also many animals with strong mimicry abilities in Zhiye, but none of them can escape the nose of the warg. Even if you hide your body, if you approach casually, you will still be killed by the warg."

"Then... I use animals to make demons. If it is a living thing, as long as it carries gems and crystals as the source of magic power, it will not be a problem even if it is dozens of kilometers away." Feilan proposed another method.

"It doesn't work. If you want to carry the source of magic power and share your senses, you can't use animals that are too small. If you want to collect information, you have to be close to people. It is bound to be seen by people. I have used animals to make demons to investigate tribes before. The coalition camp, but they were stationed on the border of Sidian at that time, it is not surprising that there are ordinary creatures appearing. And here is the wild of giant beasts, commonly used familiar animals, such as owls and other southern species, will Very abrupt."

"Wait, can that make the familiar invisible? Can't you cast spells in crystals and gems?" I remembered that Roland had borrowed gems with projection spells and sent them to the camp of the tribal coalition army by using the familiar. Also tried to make a guess.

"Idiot, how can the spell be used if the familiar brings no one with an item to trigger it?" Feilan sneered at me.

That's right, and there are wolf patrols in the tribe, so being invisible here will always be useless.

Is it true that there are ghosts in the tribe... But this kind of thing is hard to imagine. Recently, the personnel censorship is so strict. It is also difficult to spread the information, and it will take a lot of time to find ways to bypass the warning and spread it. However, the team that attacked the Wolf Head Clan set up an ambush within half a day after the Wolf Head Clan set off. It's more like using a familiar outside to obtain information immediately.

I'm in a fog again.

"Okay, it's still hard to win just by guessing. Right now, I'd better find something to do, and continue to study the magic formula used by the opponent to control the giant beast." Roland said, spreading out the parchment with the spell drawn on it. open.

Feilan also picked up the materials and began to help. I can't interfere with the study of this professional spell, so I can only find a place to sit down and think about it by myself.

But just as I put my butt down, several things mentioned in the conversation just now came together in my mind.

Animal familiars...a spell to control giant beasts...

"Wait!" I immediately jumped up from the chair.

"Hey, why are you so surprised!" Feilan yelled dissatisfiedly, startled by my voice.

I ignored her complaints, but stared at them blankly and asked: "Since domesticated animals can be used to make familiars, can giant beasts controlled by this technique also work?"

"Theoretically, it should be possible. Actually, I've thought about it." Roland replied, "But, Brock, the species in the Wild of Behemoths are so big, I'm afraid they are more difficult to mix with than ordinary creatures in the south." Come in here."

"That's right, didn't you say that the border is very well guarded? No one can get in, so how could such a big wild animal get in." Feilan also echoed.

Indeed, most of the wild animals in the Wild of Beasts are extremely large, and most of these wild animals are violent. Biological disasters have always been a big problem for all tribes. The sentinels on the border are very sensitive to wild animals approaching the reservation , let alone let them mix into the tribe.

but……

"No, that's not right." I lowered my voice, feeling that I had caught a clue, "There is a way to allow wild animals to sneak into this tribe directly."

Alien Raid (1)

"Hurry up! Grab the rope and pull it out!" Standing by the fence covered with spikes, Relogard waved his hands and commanded loudly.

A few warriors pulled a hoofhorn out of the pen. They put ropes around the neck and feet of the hoofyak, and the other end of the rope was wrapped around their arms. If the hoofyak showed any signs of madness, they would stop Will work together to yank these ropes in different directions to trip hoofers.In addition, two orcs clenched the two horns of the hoof, and each orc warrior kept a hand for a weapon.

Behind the hoof ox, there is a warg that is usually used to herd cattle at a distance to monitor its subtle movements. The warg is very sensitive to the movements of other beasts, and if the hoof hoof has any attack intentions, it will growl and warn.The hoof ox's physique is far superior to that of the bison in the south. Once it goes mad, it can easily trample over an earthen house, which is very dangerous.

Thinking about the means of the enemy's infiltration, the possibility that I finally thought of was these hoofers kept in captivity within the tribe.

As Tilawa said before, the pasture near the Shouya clan’s settlement has been eroded in a large area, and the herdsmen who herd hoofed cattle can only drive the hoofed hoofed herd to distant pastures.

Yuan herding often encounters wild beasts of giant beasts, which is a very dangerous job, but it also comes with benefits, that is, due to the herd habit of hoof oxen, grazing hoof oxen will occasionally attract single or It was a small group of hoof oxen that joined, and wild hoof oxen were captured and brought back to the tribe with little effort.

There is a loophole in this process, which is likely to allow the hoof cows controlled by the enemy to mix into the herd, bypass the sentry and directly enter the tribe, and then the enemy can use the magic spell that can share the senses to secure the eyes and ears of the mobile phone. Inside the tribe.

Although the hoof hoofers in the tribe generally can only move around in specially designated fences, due to the large area of ​​the fences, they are connected to many important areas in the tribe, and the orcs in the tribe have absolutely no regard for these hoof hoofers. Be wary, so if the hoofhorn is used as a familiar, you should be able to get a lot of information even if you can only move around the fence.

Especially since the wolf is needed to assist when grazing, the large animal cage where the wolf is raised is also near the hoof fence.At that time, the wargs of the various clan teams were also fostered here, and they were carried out near here when they set out to prepare.The cavalry team of the Langshou clan accepted the commission from the Shouya clan to investigate the stronghold before departure, and it was likely that they were snooped here during the confirmation before departure.

After thinking of this guess, I immediately found Igna, and after confirming the possibility, she immediately organized an investigation.

If the enemy really used this method to send the controlled hoofed cattle into the tribe, then the more recently the wild hoofed cattle mixed into the herd, the higher the possibility. hooves.Fortunately, because wild hoofers that are newly added to the herd usually need to go through running-in at the beginning, and the possibility of conflict with other hoofers is relatively high, the orc herders usually take note of the characteristics of those new hoofers and let the worgs write them down. smell, so that they can be pulled out in time for isolation, so the work of picking out the group of wild hoof cattle that have been mixed into the herd in recent days is not very strenuous.

The soldiers pulled the hoofhorn to the center of the field, and I followed Roland towards the hoofhoek.Roland can tell whether the hoof hoof has been given a control spell by looking closely at it carefully.

Roland stood a few steps away from the restless male hoofhorn, stretched out his hand towards it, and closed his eyes as if meditating. After about a minute passed, she reopened her eyes and shook her head: "No , there is no trace of the spell."

The soldiers pulled down the ox that had been eliminated, and another soldier pulled up a new ox.Generally speaking, the lucky thing of receiving wild hoof cattle in the process of remote grazing does not happen often, but four days ago, it seemed that a small group of seven hoof hoof cattle came in at one time, so the number of hoof hoof cattle that needs to be inspected Suddenly increased to ten or so.

Roland followed this procedure until he inspected No. 12 hoof oxen. At the end, he put down his hands and shook his head: "No."

And then no hooves were pulled up.

"Is it gone?" I stared in surprise at the orc shepherd who was standing not far away to assist us.

Did the enemy send the controlled hooves in much earlier than we thought, or is my guess wrong?

"No, actually there is another one that came back with the herd three days ago." The shepherd wearing a cowhide waistcoat raised his finger to the fence, "It's a pregnant heifer. After returning, he was a little weak for some reason and couldn't walk. It’s too moving, and it stays in the fence when it’s far away.”

"If you want to check, check it thoroughly. Since there is only this end left, just go over and have a look." Roland made a decision.

The hoof cow was last found lying on the edge of the pen.Indeed, as the shepherd said, she seemed to be pregnant, with a bulging belly, and looked rather weak.

So there was no need for us to enter the fence. Roland stood directly outside the fence, stretched out his hand towards it through the fence, and began to explore.

This time, Roland opened his eyes only ten seconds later, then lowered his expression, and said softly, "There it is... that's it!"

At this moment, the warg near us let out a low growl of warning—the hoof hoofer suddenly moved, and it kicked up with amazing strength from its weak body, and then let out a strange sound. Hou roared straight towards this direction.

However, this fence was specially designed to enclose hoof-hoofed cattle. Under the fence made of heavy wooden piles, there were also sharpened wooden piles inserted obliquely, just like the deer village under the city wall.As a result of the recklessness of the heifer controlled by the spell, those sharpened wooden stakes hit his neck and shoulders hard, causing him to be seriously injured in turn-it was simply unable to break through the fence.

And the moment it exploded, several orc warriors who were standing on a high place nearby and guarding it immediately threw spears towards its neck.A spear precisely pierced its cervical spine, and the seriously injured hoofhorn twitched violently twice, then hung its head on the sharpened stake.

The hoofhorn is dead.

I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, my guess was indeed correct, the enemy used this method to infiltrate and collect information.Just now, the enemy should have realized that their means had been discovered, and simply planned to control the familiar to launch an attack.

Alright, now finally the eyes and ears of the enemy An*lai have been found out...

At this moment, I vaguely caught a glimpse of the hoofer's belly moving.

"Ok?"

Just as I squinted my eyes again to take a closer look, a claw pierced the back of the carcass and pierced through.

Alien Raid (2)

Accompanied by an uncomfortable sticky sound, a claw cut a huge wound along the back of the hoofhorn. When everyone was still stunned by this inexplicable change, a bloody and ferocious figure Squeezed out of the wound, and then bounced like a grasshopper from the hoof's back.

The blood-stained body crossed the tall fence in a blood-stained arc, and aimed directly at Roland.

The pounce was so sudden and ferocious that the guards nearby didn't have time to respond, and it was even more impossible for Roland to react.Even I didn't have time to think, only my body moved first, and I dodged in front of her.

Although my consciousness has not caught up, my eyes still caught the claws stretched out by the other party in time.Reflexively, I stretched out my hands, grabbed the opponent's wrist tightly, and stopped the opponent's sharp claws that were stabbing at my neck.

At the same time, I finally saw the appearance of the other party.

It was a skinny and ferocious humanoid monster, the overall size was about the same as that of a human being, with a deformed back, sharp claws like blades, and a big bloody mouth that was almost cracked to the ear, full of fangs .

It opened its horrible mouth and neighed at me, the sound was piercing and piercing, and at the same time a foul smell rushed to my face.

What is this?

I had never seen such a monster before, and I couldn't help being taken aback.

And at this moment, the shoulder blades on the monster's back suddenly bulged a lot, and then two arms with claws broke out from the raised shoulder blades on his back.

This guy has four arms!

The two extra claws stretched out quickly, one left and one right caged, and the sharp claws stabbed my arm fiercely.

"Brock!" Roland exclaimed behind me.

Fortunately, it's just a skin trauma...

However, the blood still flowed out from the stabbed wound immediately, the Berserker crest engraved on my arm lit up the moment it touched the blood, and the part of the skin where the crest was engraved was burning, and at the same time a gust of pain The majestic fighting spirit spewed out from the bottom of my heart.

With a loud roar, I exerted force on my hand and immediately crushed the monster's wrist bone.I grabbed its wrist like this and twisted it forcefully, dislocating its entire arm, and then threw its whole body on the ground with all my strength, and also shook off its claws that had stuck on my arm.
