Chapter 152 The Crazy Priest

The priest bowed his head and thought for a long time, he didn't even dare to pray to his god. The orc god "Gruumsh" extremely loathes the weak. If he finds out about the situation in front of him, the best end is probably to be downgraded, and he may even be deprived of his qualifications as a priest.

Zhe Er carefully observed the priest with an uncertain face. As an excellent orc officer, he knew very well that the best way at present was to trap these adventurers to death. If you want to attack directly, the loss is likely to exceed the tolerance of the tribe. After a while, he finally plucked up the courage to go up to the pastor and make his suggestion.

"Praise the great "Gruumsh" who endowed the orcs with a strong body and a brave personality. I have a trivial idea, and I wonder if you would like to hear it?"

The pastor glanced at the centurion, he remembered that this guy was good at strategy. "Just tell me if you have any suggestions. You can also see how difficult these enemies are to deal with. I don't want to let these soldiers die in vain."

"I think it's best to use some harassing tactics non-stop, such as shooting cold arrows, picking up some damp wood outside and using it as smoke. In short, it is to keep them busy, and wait until these people are exhausted, and then take the opportunity to launch a violent attack." Ocher carefully avoided some sensitive words, because most orcs do not like this insidious tactic.

The priest frowned. These methods are indeed effective, but they are also likely to arouse the resentment of other fighters. Just as he was hesitating, an orc who was in charge of delivering the news suddenly ran up behind him.

Panting heavily, he shouted loudly: "Command from the leader of Sackham! You must capture these adventurers alive before dark, or prepare to accept his violent wrath." After speaking, he turned and left.

This order directly caused the priest's brain to explode. It turned out that Sackham had already seen that these adventurers were difficult to deal with, so he let him be the vanguard. If this attack fails, although he will not be executed, he will never get involved in the military affairs, he can only be a think tank honestly, and will be under the pressure forever.

After thinking it through, the pastor's eyes glowed red, his expression was ferocious, and the veins on his neck bulged. "Zier, take a hundred people to the woods to chop firewood immediately. Remember that you must come back in twenty minutes. We don't have much time left."

"Of course, during the logging period, please don't let these adventurers idle. Consume their physical strength and spells as much as possible, so that we will have a better chance of winning." After speaking, Zheer bowed and led a hundred strong orcs towards the entrance of the cave.

After sending these people away, the pastor turned his head and said to another centurion beside him, "Let all the archers move for me. From now on, shoot arrows whenever you see the opportunity. You heard what Zheer said just now. Don't let those guys on the opposite side be idle."

The centurion scratched his head and asked, "Should we send a few more wargs to harass us? After all, there is a parapet in front of us. As long as we hide behind, we won't be able to shoot."

"Send another 30 wolves, and tell these guys that they don't need to rush up to fight melee, they just need to run back and forth in the passage." After thinking for a while, the priest felt that relying on archery alone was a bit unreliable.

After the orcs adjusted their attack strategy, Henry and his party immediately began to feel a little uncomfortable. The archers in the distance used direct shots and projectiles from time to time. When everyone hid behind the wall, a wolf howled suddenly in the passage, and the worgs began to charge immediately.

The orc warrior spat fiercely and cursed: "These damn bastards, what are they trying to do?" He stood up and prepared for the coming attack. Seeing that the enemy had returned to the defensive position, the warg turned around and ran back, and the orc archers took the opportunity to shoot another round of arrows.

Henry quickly pulled Amy to hide behind the adamantine golem, and he breathed a sigh of relief after a crackling sound. Although he has protective spells on his body, he is not afraid of these ordinary arrows, but they cannot be consumed by the enemy at will. Just when everyone thought the attack was over, the warg howled again before charging, as if telling the enemy on the opposite side that we are about to attack, get ready.

"Head! These bastards are playing us!" Even Vaughn, who was the slowest to react, noticed the abnormality of the orcs.

After observing the distance, Henry found that these guys had withdrawn all the soldiers to the back, and all the front rows were archers. Apart from dozens of wolves running back and forth, there was no longer any force capable of attacking the fortifications. Seeing this situation, he immediately understood what the orc commander wanted to do.

"They want to consume our physical strength and protective magic! Don't be fooled! Hide first, these wolves don't dare to jump over the parapet." After speaking, Henry began to chant spells quickly, and he was going to make a sudden attack to kill all these wolves, so as to show the commander on the opposite side some color.

Soon the orc priest found that the enemy on the opposite side was not as exhausted as he imagined. They all hid behind a solid low wall, leaving only a solid adamantine golem standing in place. The wargs who rushed to the front were also a little puzzled, and they looked back at the priest. The latter quickly made up his mind and made an offensive gesture at the wolves, and then mobilized fifty orc warriors to follow.

An originally planned harassing battle was changed halfway into a tough battle. The wargs approached very cautiously, and the scattered corpses on the ground reminded them of how dangerous the guy behind the wall was. Just as the orcs behind were about to arrive, Henry suddenly flashed out and released the "Wall of Fire" at the back of the wolves.

This magic separated the wolf and the orc in an instant, and the intense heat of the flames made all creatures daunted. Vaughan, who had been waiting for a long time, jumped over the parapet, and rushed into the pack of wolves, killing them like crazy. Amy also took the opportunity to release a "fear spell", and the warg affected by this magic suddenly felt an inexplicable fear. They turned around and ran, completely ignoring the burning wall of fire, and plunged into it. Except for two lucky guys who escaped by chance, all the others were burned to charred corpses.

After the half-orc warrior chopped the last warg seriously injured, he picked it up and turned it around twice, then threw it to the ground forcefully. The unlucky guy was knocked unconscious, and Vaughn took out a dagger, and under the eyes of everyone, cut a cut from its leg to its buttocks, and then from the middle of its stomach to its chin. The last hand held down the head that was struggling desperately, and pulled the hind legs hard, peeling off the wolf's skin alive.

After completing the entire set of procedures, he threw the bloody giant wolf to the opposite side, then laughed and shook the blood-stained fur in his hand. After completing these actions, he turned his head and returned to the parapet to prepare for the next battle.

The bloody and violent behavior of the half-orc warrior shocked many people, and even Amy looked at him strangely. Henry saw a sneer from the stunned orc on the opposite side. The ferocity and toughness of the barbarian were not inferior to the orc, and even stronger. It's just that these guys pay more attention to commitment and personal honor, so they usually look rough and bold, and look easy to get along with, but they are actually violent elements in their bones.

Returning to his place, Vaughan put aside the bloody wolf skin. He was so angry with these wolves just now, he was almost going into a state of rage. You must know that since leaving Icewind Dale, he has never used this kind of Berserker's unique skill. If once it is turned on, even I can't control this violent and destructive desire, and I will be responsible for hurting my own people at that time.

Seeing that his companion was not in the right mood, Zuwosa walked over and asked, "Vaughan, are you okay? I see that your face doesn't look very good. If you have something to say, it's best to say it. If you hold it in your heart, you will get sick."

"Don't worry, it's nothing serious. I just remembered something from the past." The half-orc warrior took a few deep breaths to suppress his tyrannical emotions.

The pastor looked at Henry and his party solemnly, and he realized that his enemy was too powerful. With this level of fighter alone, apart from Sackham, there is no other person in the entire tribe who can match. He stared at the orcs around him with bloodshot eyes, and found that the eyes of these guys were full of fear.

Seeing this hopeless army, the priest gritted his teeth secretly, closed his eyes and began to pray to his god. It didn't take long for the main orc god "Gruumsh" to respond. A scarlet divine power descended from the sky, and all the orcs around the priest felt this powerful force full of evil. They all knelt down and recited their own prayers, and accepted the baptism of divine power frankly.

When Henry saw this situation, he knew immediately that something was wrong. This crazy guy exchanged all his priest level and promises for a magic spell cast by God himself. If he fails to fulfill his oath to God, his end will be very miserable. In other words, all the orcs here are about to rush up and fight desperately, and the next attack will be a fierce battle with no tactics at all and no regard for life or death.

"Everyone, be careful. These guys may change their lives for their lives in a while. Don't confront them head-on. They have all been blessed by divine power." Henry warned his companion loudly.

The half-orc warrior wiped the blood off his sword with the wolf skin just now, with a ferocious smile on his face. "It should have been like this a long time ago. I will use the weapons in my hand to teach these rookies a good lesson. Let them understand that those conspiracies and tricks are not something that can be put on the table after all, and everything must be resolved with strength in the end." (To be continued.)
