Chapter 3: Battle in the Beast Camp

1499 Words
The sunset had passed, and the Orlando Mountains were completely engulfed in darkness. The orc camp in the valley was also dark. The firelight in the night not only failed to bring safety to the camp, but also might attract powerful monsters or unknown enemies. In the land of Beland, in addition to intelligent creatures such as humans, beasts, and elves, countless powerful creatures also exist. Although their intelligence is only based on biological instincts, they are powerful and fierce individuals, and intelligent creatures are also their food. Inside a large tent in the middle of the orc camp, a female lion-human gazed through the window at the sky, lost in thought as she saw two moons, one red and one blue. Beland Continent has two satellites, with the planet's surface soil rich in iron oxide and the planet's surface gas rich in methane appearing red, while the planet's surface gas rich in methane appears light blue under sunlight. In the old legend that Belande has been circulating for many years, the goddess Nasha and Tasha are a pair of sisters, and they jointly married Arcelo, the incarnation god of the stars. Therefore, males from races such as humans and beasts on the mainland are allowed to marry two wives. "Madam, are you still awake?" a soft voice of the female leopard guard Xia La sounded outside the tent. "There are no outsiders now. Call me Joya. Xia La, come to the tent and talk with me, okay?" The sound of the curtains in the tent flapping followed. "Joya, we have already escaped their pursuit. What are you still worried about?" The female lioness, Joya, gently shook her head, her eyes bright in the night. "I have a very bad feeling. Since entering the mountains, my mind has been unable to calm down. Maybe I'm overthinking it, but if anything happens, don't worry about me. Take Leon away and send him to my father's side." Xia La gently held Joja's hand, "Leo has already lost his father, and he can't lose his mother too. Don't worry, I will protect you all and get you to the Blood Flame Tribe smoothly." Thank you, Xialar. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do "Joya..." Xia La paused as soon as she opened her mouth, and she noticed a faint whiff of smoke wafting into the tent. "Enemy attack!" A cold light ripped through the tent, and Shara, armed with a pair of crescent-shaped weapons, leaped out of the tent. At the same time that Shara leaped out of the tent, a huge fireball fell on the nearby tent, bursting and engulfing the entire tent in an instant. "The magician!" Xie La's heart was cold. One after another fireballs fell into the camp, and one by one the tents were set ablaze. Under the glow of the fire, a series of figures rushed into the camp, killing those who had not yet been set ablaze in their tents. The sleeping orcs were instantly slaughtered without even realizing it. "Human mercenaries, orc warriors attack!" Shara roared and rushed head-on towards the mage at the camp gate. The human magician is the biggest threat, and Shara's first reaction is to rush forward and kill her. When Shara had just rushed out for a dozen meters, a tall warrior suddenly rushed out from the side and struck Shara's waist with a cold-looking sword. Xia La's crescent blade swung sideways, trying to deflect the sword and continue his charge. When the crescent blade and the sword blade touched, X**'s body jolted and the weapon almost slipped out of his hand. Xia La slid out four or five meters horizontally before completely disengaging the force on the large sword. Shara stared at the bearded man holding a huge sword in front of her, and her heart sank to the bottom. With just one strike, Shara knew she was no match for the man in front of her, who was already a high-level martial artist and a master of the warrior school of humans. "If we are not even a match for ourselves, what about Joya and the others?" Xia La couldn't help turning her head. Joya also rushed out of the tent, but was stopped by a hunter-dressed man and kept retreating under the hunter's attack. Dozens of orc warriors roared and rushed out of the unlit tents, only to be greeted by a barrage of cold-looking crossbow bolts shot from the darkness. The strong body of the orc warrior was shot by several crossbows and immediately fell on his back. After falling, he could no longer climb up. "The arrow is poisoned!" This was what Xia La immediately thought. "Who are these mercenaries? How could they have a steel crossbow that is considered a contraband by the Terran race?" "Little girl, your opponent is me, and it's not a good habit to lose focus during battle!" Cairns swung his huge sword and chopped down at Shara with a sword tip that was about a foot long. Shara's crescent blade crossed upward, facing Cairns' sword. Not surprisingly, Shara was once again thrown five or six meters away. Before Cairns' attack could continue, Shara leaped forward on her own initiative. "The moon shines!" Shara took the lead in using the orc martial arts, swinging the crescent double blades and swinging more than a dozen qi cuts at Cairns. Cairns' sword swung like lightning, almost forming a fan, easily stopping all the qi. "Swivel Chop!" Cairns's sword swung around and chopped at Shara. The sword edge and crescent blade clattered continuously, forcing Xia La to retreat. When the spinning sword edge finally stopped, Xia La was already half kneeling on the ground. "Little Leopard, you're still a little short!" Cairns suddenly kicked his foot at Shara's chest, knocking her flying. Shara rolled over a few times before getting up from the ground, with blood dripping from her mouth and severe pain in her body, as if several of her breast bones had been crushed. Shara turned and ran back. "Joya, take the kids and run. We're not their match." Joya was covered in blood and had gone into a frenzied state, with her hair wildly flailing as she charged towards the hunter Angus. Angus, who had been in the ascendant before, kept retreating in the face of the crazed Joya, and had already received several blows. I can't go, you take Leon away The Orc's Frenzy state can double their strength and speed in a short period of time and reduce their pain sensation, but it comes at the cost of draining their vitality, and the Orcs will fall into a state of extreme weakness after Frenzy. "If we're going, let's go together!" Xie La brandished her crescent blade and Joya attacked Angus. "It's not the way of your orcs to bully the weak. " Cairns once again swung his sword and rushed forward, shocking Shara back with a single blow and simultaneously fighting fiercely with Joya to free Angus. Even after going berserk, Joya was no match for Cairns. The orc warriors had already been fighting with the mercenaries who sprang out of the darkness. These mercenary soldiers were clearly more powerful than the orc warriors, as they had already lost their steel crossbows and were armed with shields, swords, and spears, protecting each other in groups of several and accurately and quickly thrusting their weapons into the vital organs of the orc warriors. This was not the way of human mercenary combat at all, but more like an army, and Shara suddenly felt a chill. A series of loud roars broke out in the camp, including the Black Sun, Joia's tauren guard, and several other orc warriors who had entered a state of rage. Driven by the orc warriors, more orc warriors began to rage, and all the orcs began to fight desperately. The human mercenaries began to retreat in coordination with each other, quickly distancing themselves from the orc warriors. Before the orc warriors could approach, a series of fireballs fell into the orc formation, blasting a swath of orcs into the air. Intermediate magic skill "Explosive Fireball in a Row"! Suddenly, a sound of breaking the sky was heard in the night, and a series of sharp arrows wrapped with fighting qi flew out of the darkness. Each arrow was accurately placed in the fatal spot of the orc warrior, and even Hessen slowly fell down with his throat covered by the shaft of the arrow. Elven archer! The hope that had just arisen in Shara was suddenly shattered. Shara had lost all hope and did not have time to avoid the arrows that were aimed at him. At the moment when the arrow was about to be shot into her heart, Joah stepped in front of Shara. "Shara, let's go!" Joya let out her final roar and rushed towards Cairns with the sharp arrow piercing her chest.
