Chapter 238 shocked the whole audience!
"It's a curse! We are cursed!"
While Gervis was waiting seriously, the leader of the sheep horns on the opposite side roared loudly after checking the environment of the arena.
However, due to the cheers of the audience and the occasional roars of other orcs, Gervis did not hear these two sentences.
"What is this place? Is it the cursed land? Are all the cursed orcs of the royal court sent to this place? Then where are they? Why are there so many humans?!"
The pig-headed man leader's mind was obviously full of doubts. In the past, they had often heard that some of their kind would be cursed and disappear inexplicably, but now that it was his turn, he became a little confused.
"No matter where they are, let's kill all these despicable humans first!"
The goat-horned orc leader obviously couldn't answer the pig-headed leader's question, but he didn't intend to think too much about it. He now felt that the reason they came here was all a conspiracy by humans. The orc leader looked at everyone present with hatred, picked up the skull staff in his hand, and prepared to start a killing spree!
"Okay! Sheep Horn Sacrifice, we must run out and tell Lord Beast King about the human conspiracy!"
The pig-headed leader yelled, raised a huge mace in his hand and began to give orders.
Because there were high walls and guardrails with huge drops all around, the first target of attack of the pig-headed people and the goat-horned orcs was naturally Gervis!
"For the royal court! Warriors, kill all these despicable humans! God Behemoth will protect us!"
"kill!"
As the orc leaders of the two races gave orders, the ordinary orcs who had long been unable to hold back rushed towards Gervis and his 15 companions.
Although the orcs' charge had no formation at all, their advantage in numbers and size made their charge of more than a hundred people powerful. Gervis and others suddenly felt that the orcs on the opposite side were rushing towards them like a huge wave.
Even the spectators on the field turned pale when they saw this scene, and they involuntarily took a small step back. They had never seen so many orcs shouting and charging together.
The orcs rushing in the front were the goat-horned orcs, because they were much faster than the pig-headed orcs. The goat-horned orcs held weapons in their hands, but they crouched down and charged on all fours like ordinary wild beasts. The two horns on their foreheads were always pointing at Gervis and others like flying javelins.
"Ready your muskets!"
"put!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
In fact, before the orcs charged, Gervis wanted his guards to open fire, but the distance of more than 150 meters was a bit far, and the enemies on the opposite side were orcs. The orcs were tall and strong, with well-developed muscles. Gervis was worried that at such a long distance, the muskets could not cause fatal damage to the orcs, but would waste time for reloading.
If the enemy is an ordinary human soldier, the musket can cause great damage to the enemy's body as long as it hits the target at a distance of 150 meters.
So when the orcs rushed to within 120 meters, Gervis finally gave the order to shoot!
Following Gervis's order, the four guards squatting on the ground in the first row pulled the trigger in their hands. With a loud bang, a burst of white smoke came out of the gun barrel, and the bullet had already flown towards the charging enemy.
As the sound of musket fire fell, four goat-horned orcs in the front of the opposite orcs fell to the ground. This situation made Gervis' eyes widen.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Next, without Gervis's order, the guards in the second row stood up and pulled the trigger in their hands. Then Gervis saw four of the enemy's goat-horned orcs fall to the ground!
It was not until this moment that Gervis discovered with surprise that his musket was the nemesis of the charging orcs.
The advantage of the goat-horned orcs is that they charge on all fours with their heads in front and use their horns to attack the enemy formation, but this characteristic is destined to bring them a painful lesson today.
Because the orcs have strong bodies, if the muskets are fired at them, one shot may not kill them directly. But it is different if they are shot at the head, especially for the goat-horned orcs who lower their heads and completely expose their crowns to Gervis and others. As long as the head is hit and the bullet enters the brain, no matter how strong the goat-horned orcs are and how well-developed their muscles are, they will fall to the ground and die immediately!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
There was another burst of smoke, and Gervis and the last row of guards fired the bullets in their guns. The orcs on the opposite side were charging in dense formation, and thanks to Gervis's training, no one missed the target in the first round of shooting. Gervis and his 12 guards fired a volley of muskets, directly knocking down 12 of the opposing goat-horned orcs.
At this moment, all the spectators in the arena forgot to cheer. They were stunned and looked at Gerves and his companions in disbelief.
No one could figure out what that strange-looking thing that Gervis and the others were holding was. It not only made a loud noise, but also sprayed smoke. The most important thing was that when the weapons in their hands sprayed out a puff of smoke, several orcs a hundred meters away would fall down accordingly.
"What is that? Is it the magic in the novel script? Otherwise, how could it kill the orcs from a hundred meters away?"
Because they did not see any arrows flying through the air, and they were sure that even arrows would not be able to kill so many orcs at such a long distance.
This made some of the little nobles who had read a few fantasy novels and scripts have ridiculous thoughts. It was just like the idea that people on Earth would have when they saw such a scene and wondered if they had seen Superman in movies and TV dramas.
Not only the minor nobles, but even many earl representatives were lost in deep thought, looking at Gervis with weird and greedy eyes. As descendants of large families, they were not only curious about new things, but also had a strong possessive desire, especially for weapons that could kill monsters from a hundred meters away.
On the central stand, Alice was also staring at Gervis in a daze, and suddenly remembered what Thomas had said to her when he came to Winter City to sell ice cream, about Gervis using powerful weapons to kill monsters.
Alice had originally thought of waiting for Gervis to come to Rose Castle to ask him about the weapons in person, but she had been so busy recently that she had forgotten about it. However, when she saw the sharp musket in Gervis's hand, she immediately remembered this matter.
Alice basically believed that the powerful weapon that Thomas mentioned at the beginning might be the thing in front of her.
"Anna, were the weapons that Gervis and the others were holding invented by Gervis?"
Alice suddenly remembered that Anna was Gervis's personal maid! She should be able to get the answers to these questions, so she turned around and asked Anna.
"Yes, Lord Earl, the muskets in the hands of the Lord and his guards were invented by Lord Gervis, and they are forged with mithril. They are very powerful!"
Anna has now completely accepted Alice as her "mistress". She certainly would not hide anything from her mistress who wants to know about her master. She immediately told Alice about her master's achievements with admiration.
“It is so!”
When Alice heard this, she finally confirmed that this was the reason why Gervis killed the monster!
Of course, Alice didn't expect that the powerful weapon Thomas mentioned that day was not actually the musket, but Gervis's alien grenade.
The reason why Gervis's musket could cause such damage to the orcs today was entirely due to the goat-horned orcs themselves. If the pig-headed people were charging in the front, it would be a blessing to be able to kill two pig-headed people with a salvo of four people.
After all, apart from the head, the orcs have thick skin and flesh. Unless you hit the vital parts, they will basically be seriously injured. It is difficult to kill the orcs with one shot!
