Chapter 271 Rescue

"Lance Phalanx, keep moving forward!"

Under the leadership of Gervis, the spear phalanx of the slave soldiers was like a bulldozer, sweeping away and wiping out the orcs along the way. However, Gervis also suffered some casualties. Four of the guards and servants who gathered on both sides were killed and five were seriously injured.

The orcs were sturdy and their weapons, though crude, were very heavy. If the ordinary guards were hit by one, they would either die on the spot or break their legs or arms.

At the same time, Gervis killed five orc leaders along the way, which increased the energy point value in his system panel again. Such results made Gervis extremely happy. He hoped to continue his efforts and earn enough energy points at once.

With a desire for energy points, Gervase and others soon arrived at the center of the vestibule. However, when Gervase and his subordinates arrived here, they found that Gandalf and others were in a bad situation.

Gandalf and his men have gathered together, and their number has been reduced from ten to eight. Even Gandalf's eight men are all injured.

There were more than a dozen Orc warriors besieging them. These Orc warriors were agile and the energy fluctuations emanating from their bodies were no less powerful than those of the Silver Knights such as Gandalf.

While the Orc warriors were besieging, there were many Orc leaders and priests behind the Orcs. Although these Orc leaders were not the main force of the attack, once Gandalf and others showed a flaw, they would attack without mercy. Most of the scars on Gandalf and others were caused by sneak attacks.

"We can't go on like this! We must find a way to get rid of those priests!"

Seeing that the sneak attacks by several priests made his cheap father and his men dare not move at all, Gervis was secretly anxious.

If they delay like this, they will surely be exhausted to death by these orcs, and the only vassal statesmen like Gandalf who can fight against the dozen or so orcs now. If Gandalf and his men are surrounded and killed, the Rose Castle will be in danger.

"What should we do? Is there any way to support them?"

While Gervis was anxious, he was also thinking. There were too many orc leaders in the field. Gervis didn't dare to get close at all. With his Bronze Knight level, if he rushed forward directly, it would be no different from giving away his head.

While thinking, Gervis looked around, and suddenly, he saw the towering city wall in front of him. At this time, he remembered that he had a musket, which was the best long-range weapon.

"The spear phalanx continues to attack until it reaches the stairs at the bottom of the city wall!!"

Gervis quickly gave orders to the slave soldiers. The city wall was the commanding height in the vestibule, and at the same time it would not put themselves in danger, but could help Gandalf and others.

The power of the musket may not cause much damage to the orcs, but it can cause considerable damage to the orc leaders, especially the orc priests.

These orc priests have been studying spells for a long time, and they use spells and magic pets to attack when facing enemies, so the demand for their own strength is not that high. This makes their bodies much weaker than ordinary orcs, and their defense is relatively not that strong. They are exactly the best targets for Gervis to kill.

"kill!"

Upon receiving Gervis' orders, the slave soldiers would execute them without hesitation, taking small steps and stabbing forward with their spears raised, like killing machines that would never get tired.

"The spear phalanx defends here. Ike, the six of you take your muskets and follow me to the city wall!"

After advancing another four or five meters, Gervis and his companions finally reached the stairs at the foot of the city wall.

"Yes, sir!"

Ike and his men took the order and ran quickly towards the carriage behind. At this moment, the muskets were stored on the carriage.

Gervis did not wait for Ik and the others, but rode his unicorn directly up the stairs.

When Gervis rushed up the city wall, he found that there were still many orcs besieging the door of a tower in front of him. There was a river of blood and corpses everywhere, including orcs and Rose Castle guards.

There should still be quite a few living guards in the tower. The door is blocked by a huge shield, and arrows are shot out from the windows above from time to time.

However, the arrows have limited killing power on orcs. It often takes four or five arrows to kill an orc.

Seeing this scene, Gervis directly urged the unicorn to charge towards the tower. When he arrived in front of the tower, Gervis quickly turned over and dismounted, swinging his sword at the orcs behind him.

Faced with the sharp mithril sword, these orcs had no ability to resist at all. Every time Gervis swung the sword, he could take the life of an orc.

In just a few breaths, Gervis killed four or five orcs in succession.

At this time, the orcs besieging the tower finally discovered something unusual in the rear. Seeing that a human in armor dared to fight them alone, they turned around, abandoned their targets in the tower, and rushed towards Gervis, shouting and screaming.

"kill!"

Faced with more than a dozen orcs charging towards him, Gervis's fighting spirit circulated rapidly in his body. He shouted loudly and rushed forward.

Gervis, wearing full body armor, was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep. Every time Gervis passed in front of an orc, a cloud of blood mist would burst out from the orc's body. Before the orcs' weapons fell, their necks had been cut open by Gervis's sword.

"grown ups!"

When Gervis had killed all the orcs on this section of the wall, the guards in the tower dared to remove their long shields, walked out of the tower carefully, and saluted Gervis respectfully.

"Stay in this section and don't go anywhere else. The castle is full of orcs. If you know how to use a longbow, you can shoot the orcs in the vestibule here!"

Gervis nodded to them. These guards were all ordinary people, and it was not easy for them to hold on until now. Then Gervis ignored them and looked towards the vestibule.

Standing on the city wall, one can see the situation of Gandalf and others more clearly. There are eight of them including Gandalf, who are standing back to back and defending against attacks from all sides. Among them, there is a middle-aged man lying on the ground unconscious.

Just as Gervis was observing below, the guards finally ran up with muskets.

"Ike, bring me my musket. You are free to shoot, but try to shoot the orcs who are close to my father and his men!"

"Yes! Sir!"

There is no need to worry about missing your musket shots here, because the orcs surrounding below are so dense that you can hit them with your eyes closed.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

However, it is somewhat difficult to hit valuable targets, still because the number of people is too dense, and if you want to hit the target from a high position, you can only aim at a head.

Gervis took his musket, which was already loaded with ammunition.

This is the rule that Gervis usually sets, so that the musket can be kept ready to shoot at any time and anywhere. After loading the ammunition, plug it with cotton so there is no need to worry about the steel ball moving around.

…

At this moment, Gandalf was fighting with an Orc warrior. This Orc warrior was not only at a level not inferior to Gandalf, but also had a strange skill.

Whenever the Orc warrior used this skill, his attacking figure would turn into three phantoms. Although the phantoms had no real damage and only lasted for a moment, Gandalf did not dare to be distracted at all, because one of the three phantoms must have been real. Baron Nadeen, the man lying on the ground behind him, was hit in the chest by this Orc warrior and was seriously injured.

"Go to hell, you despicable human!"

The Orc warrior roared, and his body immediately split into three figures. It was difficult to tell which of the three figures was real, and they all raised their swords and slashed at Gandalf.

Seeing the shadow attacking different parts of his body, Gandalf immediately changed his body shape, dodged the straight stab on the left, then raised the sword in his hand, drew a semicircle in the air and hit the shadow in front of him, but the sword went straight through the shadow's body without causing any hindrance.

"Fake!"

Gandalf was startled, and his hands moved even faster, directly pressing against his right shoulder. With a clang, the real Orc warrior swung his sword and chopped at Gandalf's sword!

Seeing that his attack was blocked by Gandalf, the Orc warrior did not get angry, but instead showed a bloodthirsty smile on his face, because behind him, a goat-horned priest was already chanting. As long as the goat-horned priest uttered the last word, the black cone would condense and pierce Gandalf's chest.

"not good!"

Gandalf also noticed the actions of the Goathorn at this moment, and his face looked a little ugly, but he could not change his body shape, because his other old friends were behind him. What was even more terrible was that his sword was still suppressed by the Orc warriors, and he could not retract it to block the black spike.

"Go to hell! Human!"

The orc warrior grinned.

Bang!

A burst of smoke exploded on the city wall. As the sound of gunfire was heard and the black cone was about to form, a bloody hole exploded in the head of the goat-horned orc, preventing him from completing the last word of the spell.

Sorry, I've been busy these past two days and updated late again today!
