Broad World

Chapter 146 Trapped

Amy carefully observed the situation outside through the cracks in the rocks. These guys who advocate chaos set up a camp with no structure at all, just a messy huddle. The male fighters yelled at the females in the ranks, urging them to start cooking quickly. It didn't take long for the entire Luanshigang to have a large bonfire, and a large amount of unknown meat and wild vegetables were thrown into the pot together. Ten minutes later, the fragrance wafted in through the cracks in the stones.

The half-orc warrior touched his stomach, the smell made him a little hungry. "Head, can I get something to eat if I'm hungry?"

Zuwosa gave him a hard look. She was sweating nervously now, for fear that the orcs outside would find out if she was not careful. And this guy is still thinking about eating. Vaughan scratched his head in embarrassment when he saw the ranger's fierce eyes, and then looked at Henry with a begging look.

"Here, these are some jerky. Try not to make any noise while eating. The magic I just cast has no sound insulation effect." Henry took out a bag of jerky and said in a low voice.

Vaughan opened his mouth and smiled, took the bag and sat down to eat. For him, nothing is more important than filling his stomach. Henry looked at Ares who was not drooling beside him, smiled and shook his head and gave it a bag.

After comforting the two foodies, he came to the cave door and lowered his voice and said to Amy, "Go and rest for a while, let me see what they are doing." The girl nodded and retreated slowly, and found a clean stone to sit down and rest. The cave was very quiet, and even Bamberke, who has always been talkative, knew that the situation seemed to be not good.

Henry carefully observed the specific situation of the orcs, secretly calculating the fighting power of these guys. One-third of the entire tribe is adult warriors, about 3,000 to 4,000 people. Most of the rest are women, the elderly and children. The status of these vulnerable groups is very low. It is often seen that adult men grab a woman and commit suicide by the campfire.

Soon the orcs were ready to eat, and the soldiers violently drove away the old people and children who were waiting to eat by the pot, rushed up to pick up the food with a spoon, and stuffed it into their mouths. They jostle each other for vantage points, and in some places even fight each other. The leader sat on a chair made of animal skin. He watched the fight below with great interest, and had no intention of stopping it at all.

Seeing that the scene was getting more and more chaotic, the priest of the orc god "Gruumsh" stepped forward and reminded: "Great leader Sakam, you should stop these impulsive guys, otherwise the entire camp will be destroyed by them in a while."

"Don't worry, the supreme Gruumsh taught us that the orcs only want to become stronger in the battle, and those who are weak are not worthy of living in this world." Sackham raised the wine glass made of human skulls and drank it down. The pastor nodded, holding an evil emblem engraved with orbital bones on his chest with one hand, praying silently to his body.

The dinner ended in this kind of continuous fighting. The orcs who were full began to sit around the bonfire and wrestle each other for fun. They laughed loudly at those who fell down, and the winners proudly raised their hands, showing off their strong bodies and scars.

Henry frowned, and he used "distance vision" to see the strong orc leader. This terrifying warrior's body was covered with various scars, the joints of his fingers were thick, and his palms were covered with calluses. Judging from his various actions, this guy must have experienced many battles, and he might be a legend.

Just when Henry was about to continue observing, the priest standing next to the orc leader suddenly noticed something unusual. He immediately began to cast divine spells, and then used a "dispel magic" to dispel the "long-sighted spell".

Sackham quickly stood up and walked to the priest and asked, "What's going on! Why did you suddenly use a magic spell?"

"Someone was using magic to spy on here just now. I cast a magic spell to dispel the magic effect." The priest quickly lowered his head and explained, he didn't want to be misunderstood by this powerful and tyrannical leader.

Sackham narrowed his eyes and began to walk up and down the chair. After a few minutes he stopped and asked, "If I remember correctly, those Wargs who were sent out as forwards should be around here, right?"

"Yes, they should have started hunting around here two days ago, and the hunters behind should not be far away." The priest nodded and replied in a low voice.

Sackham suddenly grabbed the ax he was about to see, and smashed the table in front of him fiercely. He shouted angrily: "Send the signal! Tell these guys to find me! If I can't find the peeping people, I will kill them to vent my anger!"

"Obey! Great leader, I'm going to signal them right away." The pastor turned around and ran away after speaking. He almost hit himself with the ax just now.

Henry, who was hiding in the cave, was taken aback when he found that his spell had been dispelled, but he was relieved to see that the orcs outside hadn't made any big moves. As night fell, the chaotic camp began to slowly quiet down. The rough-skinned orc lay directly on the ground full of gravel and fell asleep, completely ignoring the cold wind whistling past at night.

Henry retreated back into the cave and whispered to everyone else: "Get ready, we'll sneak out quietly at midnight. Remember to wrap your boots with cloth and don't make any noise."

Zuwosa asked with some doubts: "Why not wait until tomorrow, when these guys will leave by themselves."

"I was discovered by a priest when I cast the "farsightedness technique" just now. It won't take long for him to find this place. To avoid long nights and dreams, the sooner you leave, the better, otherwise you will die if you get stuck here." Henry smiled wryly while explaining the reason.

Vaughn leaned over and put forward his suggestion with excitement on his face. "Why don't we fight out, anyway, those ordinary fighters can't resist our attack. As long as we kill their leader, these unorganized guys will collapse soon."

Henry smiled wryly and shook his head. "It's not that easy to kill the leader this time. If I'm not mistaken, even if he's not a legendary warrior, he's not too far behind."

"Legendary warrior! You must be joking, right? Oh my God! If it's true, he can kill us all by himself." Zuwosa widened her eyes in surprise. She couldn't believe that there were legendary professionals in such a remote place.

Amy sighed deeply and said: "It seems that this trip was really plagued by bad luck, so we solved a giant beast that can regenerate infinitely, and now we have met a legendary warrior. I really don't know what more terrifying things are waiting for us ahead."

"I'm really looking forward to a one-on-one fight with this fighter, to see how powerful the legendary fighter is." Speaking of which, the half-orc warrior began to wipe his weapon, with a longing expression on his face.

Henry walked over and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly. "Let's talk about it next time. There are at least three thousand fully armed orc warriors outside. I don't think they will give you a one-on-one chance."

Vaughan sighed helplessly, silently put away his weapon and nodded. For the next few days, everyone didn't speak any more. They seized the time and began to close their eyes and meditate, because in the next few days, they were likely to be hunted down jointly by the orcs and the wargs. A few hours later, midnight fell, and the entire camp was silent.

Henry winked at the half-orc warrior, who hurried over and moved the stone blocking the door. Everyone wrapped their boots with cloth, and tried to lighten their steps so that the gravel under their feet would not make too much noise. Soon the group left the camp without any danger. Just as they were about to breathe a sigh of relief, the howling of the warg sounded in the distance.

"Not good! The orcs must have summoned these guys back. We have to run quickly, or we will be caught up soon." Zuwotha said with a frown.

Henry immediately cast an "acceleration spell" and said to the ranger: "You lead the way in front, we use running now. This spell won't last long, but it should help us create a distance first."

Zuwosa nodded, and ran towards the east without saying a word, and the others followed closely behind. Under the effect of the magic, everyone ran fast, and in just a few minutes, they could no longer see the orc camp behind them. It didn't take long for the effect of the "acceleration technique" to gradually disappear, and their speed slowed down little by little.

The group of people began to feel tiredness for a while, and some people kept splashing cold water from the jug on their faces, hoping to wake up a little bit. After walking like this for more than an hour, Amy couldn't hold it anymore, she fell to the ground and fell asleep. Henry hurried over to help her up and checked briefly, and he was relieved when he found nothing serious.

Zuwosa dragged his tired body over and asked, "What should we do? We won't be able to support this situation for long. And if we're so tired and on our way, if we're caught up, I'm afraid we won't even have the ability to fight back."

"Hold on for a while, we have to find a safe place to rest. The terrain here is too open, which is not conducive to defense." Henry said while fixing Amy on Ares's back.

The ranger pointed to a bush in the north. "I know that there is a strange-shaped cave passing through there. The terrain is complex and there are countless forks. It should meet your requirements. However, there are a few nests of carnivorous ants in the woods, and they will not welcome intruders like us."

"We have no choice now. Rather than staying here and waiting to die, it is better to take a risk. Maybe these ants can cause some trouble for the guys behind." After speaking, Henry took the lead and walked towards the bushes. (To be continued.)
