Chapter 276 That Kick
Seeing that the short orc had lost all his breath, Gervis breathed a sigh of relief. Although he seemed very calm just now, he was actually scared out of his wits. He originally wanted to take advantage of the situation if he had the chance, but he didn't expect that the short orc would actually set his sights on him.
Fortunately, Gervis had learned illusion today, and with the blessing of the energy fruit, the second illusion he performed was much better than the one during the day. This made the short orc fall into the illusion and be fooled into thinking that Gervis wanted to escape, so he changed the direction of the long sword.
Who knew that Gervis was so skilled and daring that he didn't even move an inch.
"Little Gervis, are you okay? This..."
Gandalf ran for his life to Gervase, but he didn't expect that the short orc warrior would die in such a strange way.
There is no doubt about the short orc's strength as he could withstand the siege of him and Bernie for so long. But in the end, the orc's long sword slightly adjusted to avoid Gervis, and instead threw himself into Gervis's long sword without hesitation, which made Gandalf wonder what happened.
Gandalf really wanted to ask Gervase what was going on, whether it was the dwarf orc's own mistake or whether Gervase had some special method, but Gandalf finally held back.
It was just that the look he gave Gervis was full of strangeness, and Gandalf realized this time that he seemed to no longer understand his second son, little Gervis.
"Father, I'm fine!"
Gervase stopped smiling and said to Gandalf with a look of lingering fear.
"I'm glad you're alright, little Gervis. As a lord..."
"As a lord, safety is the most important thing! Father, I know! Father, are you hurt?"
Gervais rolled his eyes. Gandalf always added a small word when calling him, which made Gervais feel uncomfortable.
However, this is also a reflection of Gandalf's love for his children, so Gervis can only silently endure this title.
"That's good to know, little Gervis, you will be the glory of the Gale family!"
No matter what, Gervase is his son after all. Gandalf did not ask Gervase about anything that happened before, nor did he want to know how Gervase did it. He only hoped that Gervase could grow up safely and lead the Gaelic family to the road of glory.
"Father is not injured, thanks to you today!"
As Gandalf had a satisfied smile on his face, he felt that with Gervis's performance today, his future was promising.
While Gervis was talking to Gandalf and his son, two other Orc warriors were also killed by the swords of other Silver Knights, which made Gervis feel a little disappointed.
"Five energy points! Killing one more will instantly earn back the money I spent on the previous draw!"
After the vassals killed the orcs, they began to check on the other two injured Silver Knights lying on the ground. One was the one they had just protected behind them, and the other was lying in a pile of orc corpses. The former was still breathing, but the latter was in a horrible state.
The latter was none other than the Viscount named Palant, a mid-level silver knight, who was ambushed by the orcs and quickly drowned in the group of orcs. His body was a little broken, but the vassals did not care. Two vassals quickly picked up the two men and rushed to the gate of the inner castle.
Seeing the appearance of the Palant, Gandalf suddenly fell silent. He was only concerned about the comfort of Gervis and had forgotten everything else.
"Grevith, go to the inner castle and rest first! Baron Bernie and I still have to deal with the remaining orcs."
Gandalf was silent for a moment, and when he saw the other vassals starting to kill off into the distance, he gave an order to Gervis.
"Okay, father, then be careful!"
Gervis had no objection, knowing that his father was sad for his teammates, and nodded obediently.
There should not be many orcs left in the castle now, only a hundred or so at most, basically scattered ordinary orcs. The orc leaders have just gathered in the central battlefield area of the front courtyard.
Some orc leaders were killed by Gandalf and his men, and some were eliminated by Gervis and became his energy points.
Since there were no energy points to be earned and the remaining orcs could no longer cause any trouble, Gervis was unwilling to fight anymore because his entire body ached and he felt like he was back in the morning when he first met the little maid Anna.
When he was fighting just now, he didn't feel the effect of adrenaline so obviously, but now that he was completely relaxed, Gervis felt it was difficult to even lift his feet.
After watching Gandalf and the others walk away, Gerves carefully walked towards his men.
Bang!
The gate of the inner castle was opened by the two silver knights. Knowing that there was no danger, the servants in the inner castle walked out quickly under Lina's command and began to run in the vestibule and on the city wall. They held cloth strips and stretchers in their hands and began to treat the wounded.
"Lord Gervis!"
After Lina arranged the servants, she ran over here immediately after seeing Gervis. When she got to Gervis, she saw that Gervis was walking in a strange posture. She reached out and held Gervis' arm without hesitation. She didn't care about the blood on her armor and asked anxiously, "Sir, are you okay? Come back to the inner castle with me and let the servants in the inner castle check on you."
Although there are no priests resident in such a large castle, there are still many ordinary doctors. Of course, their normal status is still male servants, but they were sent to the church by Rose Castle to study medicine with the priests for a period of time.
"I'm fine Lina, how's Alice?"
Gervis shook his head. He thought that his shoulder was the most seriously injured part, but the blood had already coagulated, so Gervis decided to go and check on his men first.
In the battle just now, Gervis saw many slave soldiers being attacked by orcs who occasionally broke through. He wanted to see the casualties before he could return to the inner castle to rest and heal his wounds.
"Lord Gervis, the Earl is already recuperating in his room. Although his fighting spirit has recovered, his internal organs are injured and he still has difficulty moving. I will ask someone to go to the church to invite a priest to come!"
Lina supported Gervis and walked towards the stairs of the city wall, answering in a low voice as she walked.
"Call a priest? Does Alice know?"
In fact, Gervis already had a vague feeling in his heart that the church was highly suspected of what happened tonight. Although he didn't know what the church's motives were, he felt that in this principality, Gervis felt that the church was the only one who could produce so many purple elf bugs and elves.
After all, the church has been purchasing purple elf bugs, which are somewhat useless to ordinary nobles. Even if they get them, they will sell them immediately and keep only one or two at most. It is impossible for them to own a large number of purple elf bugs and elves.
Hearing the question, Lina looked at Gervis in surprise. Others might not understand Gervis's inexplicable question, but Lina could understand it, because they asked the pastor to come not really to heal Alice, but just to see the church's reaction.
"Lord Gervis, the Earl knows!"
Lina replied quietly.
"Oh! Lina, go ahead and do your work. I really don't need your help. Go get some more cloth strips, boil them in boiling water, and use them to clean the wounds of the injured soldiers!"
Gervis nodded and did not mention anything about the church. Since Alice knew about it, she was not a fool and must have her purpose.
Gervis pulled out the arm that Lina was holding and said something.
"Yes, Lord Gervis!"
Lina saw that although Gervis walked a little strangely, his tone of voice was normal. She did have a lot of things to arrange, so she agreed and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, Lina, who had already taken two steps, turned around and said to Gervis, "Sir, thank you for what you did just now!"
Then he ran away like the wind.
Gervis didn't know that when he was by the pool, he kicked someone in the chest in a panic, which made Lina feel painful and embarrassed. After coming out of the pool, she was still a little angry when she saw Gervis.
However, Gervis still thought of saving her in the critical moment, so even though Lina was a little angry, she still remembered the life-saving grace.
