Chapter 783 Totem Pole
squeak!
Gradually, it became dark, and just when Gervis was considering whether to act now or later, the gate of the courtyard where the natives were imprisoned was opened first.
When the gate of the courtyard opened, more than twenty orcs holding weapons walked in aggressively.
"Hurry up and pick out thirty people. I'm starving to death!"
The leader of the group was an orc, and the remaining twenty orcs were gnolls and kobolds.
These gnolls and jackals had a piece of tattered cloth tied in front of their bodies and held a heavy boning knife in their hands, which looked very funny.
"Ah! No! I don't want to go! Please let me go!"
"The gods will punish you..."
In Gervis's eyes, these orcs tied with cloth and holding kitchen knives looked a little funny, but in the eyes of these imprisoned natives, they were real demons.
Because they have seen what happened to their companions after being captured by these orcs in aprons these days.
That means being captured, slaughtered, cooked and eaten by these orcs like animals.
Therefore, the few people captured by the orcs at this time either begged desperately or resisted fiercely.
However, these kobolds and jackals were inferior orcs in front of the orcs, but they had no mercy in front of these descendants of the servants of God. When they heard the natives chattering, they immediately became impatient and chopped them down with their swords.
Puff! Puff! "Woo-woo!"
Seeing the two heads fall to the ground, hundreds of natives in the yard fell silent and could only tremble and sob with fear.
Next, more than twenty dog-headed men and werewolves easily forced more than thirty pale-faced natives out of the yard.
squeak!
The gate of the courtyard was closed again. Gervis frowned and began to look around. He was ready to take action.
He had seen orcs eating humans once in the tower of the wizard Nehum, but at that time Gervis thought it was just an accidental incident.
But now it seems that orcs killing people for food might not be an accidental event, which makes him feel no guilt about killing these orcs tonight to earn energy points.
Gervis didn't think about it any more and directly took out his scarlet blade from the space ring.
"die!"
The orc guards on the roof had never thought that there would be people in the courtyard who could resist. These natives who were taken as food were all ordinary descendants of God's servants.
Those descendants of God's servants who possessed the strength of the title Knights had already been assigned to various mines for mining.
Just as he was watching the dog-headed men outside the door preparing "dinner", he suddenly heard a cold shout in his ear.
Puff! Before the orc could react, Gervis's long sword slashed through his body.
"Well……"
Time froze for a moment, and a moment later the orc's head with eyes wide open rolled directly from the roof to the courtyard.
While the orc was dying with his eyes open, Gervis had already rushed towards several other orc guards like a black shadow.
Puff, puff, puff! Then with just a few simple slashes of the sword, the orcs around the courtyard were swept away.
"It's your turn next! Even though you don't have enough energy, you still deserve to die!"
"Who?"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Puff puff puff! After Gervis dealt with several orcs who were guarding the courtyard, he went directly to the street corner where more than twenty kobolds were preparing to slaughter for "food".
The moment Gervis rushed over, they naturally noticed the movements on Gervis' side.
However, Gervis was too fast and they had no time to react. While they were shouting warnings, Gervis had already rushed into their midst like the god of death.
It took only a moment to deal with these gnolls and jackals who were not even cannon fodder. Then Gervis rushed towards the totem stone pillar in the center of the square.
"Enemy attack! Stop him!"
"Protect the totem pole!"
As Gervis appeared in the square, roars and shouts suddenly filled the entire square.
The totem pole in the center of the square is one of the most important things for the orcs, so there are more than a hundred orcs on duty, including a Black Flag junior knight captain who is in charge of guarding it.
"Where did this weak reptile come from? How dare you come here to cause trouble!"
The orc captain who led the team was extremely fast and was the first to react and rushed to intercept Gervis.
"Die! Reptile!"
When the orc captain saw that Gervis was just a top knight of the White Flag, he did not take him seriously at all.
While shouting angrily, he blocked Gervis's way and then swung the huge axe weighing at least a hundred pounds in his hand and chopped towards Gervis.
"Critical strike with one sword!"
When Gervis saw that the Orc captain was so arrogant, he immediately mobilized all his fighting spirit and swung out the Crimson Moon in an instant.
Dang! Puff! "How is this possible... You are not a white flag..."
"Who told you I was a Knight of the White Flag?"
Seeing the Orc captain falling to the ground and sobbing with an unwilling look on his face, Gervis looked at him as if he were an idiot.
The moment he took action, he had already exchanged 2,000 gold coins for two energy points, and then added the original eight points to buy a strength-enhancing fruit.
At this time, his strength had reached that of the initial stage of the Red Flag, and it would only take one sword for him to deal with the arrogant initial stage Black Flag knight.
"Oh no! The captain is dead! Call the leader!"
However, after Gervis dealt with the leader, the orc soldiers were frightened by his sword. They surrounded Gervis but did not dare to move forward.
"You dare not come forward! Then I will tear down this stone pillar first!"
Looking at the orc soldiers who surrounded but did not kill them, Gervis did not rush to chase them. Instead, he immediately came to the totem pole at the end of the square, and then raised the Crimson Moon and aimed it at the totem pole.
He could already feel the blessing of the totem pole on the orcs, as well as the suppression of himself.
Although Gervis took the black kiwi fruit, it was not difficult for him to deal with the golden knights or even the black flag knights.
However, Gervis believed that there must be orcs at the Red Flag Knight level in this city. When the time comes, with the blessing of the totem pole, he would be in trouble.
"Blood Moon Death Slash!"
"How dare you, despicable human!"
Just as Gervis swung the 'Blood Moon Death Slash' at the totem pole, dozens of beastmen quickly rushed out from the gate of the temple.
The leader was a shirtless orc with a terrifying aura, at least at the mid-level Red Flag level, while several of the others were high-level Black Flag level.
When the red flag mid-level orc leader saw what Gervis did, he immediately shouted loudly, and his body turned into a black shadow, rushing straight towards Gervis.
However, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't block Gervis' attack.
Boom! A loud noise echoed in the square, and suddenly a golden light burst out from the totem pole.
"Huh? It only cut a gap. How is that possible?!"
However, when the light disappeared, Gervis was surprised to find that the totem pole that he had chopped with his sword was only cut into a gap of more than ten centimeters.
"You despicable human, I will definitely skin you alive!"
At this time, the roar of the orc leader of the Red Flag Knight realm was already very close!
"Damn it, this time I'm going to screw you over!"
Although the light of this totem pole is a little dimmer due to the gap, it still exists.
This shows that the totem pole's blessing on these orcs is still there, and Gervis' current strength can at most ensure a draw with the orc leader.
But the problem is that there are more than ten knights with white and black flags following this orc leader.
Gervis didn't have time to think any more and quickly took out two watermelon-sized iron balls from the space ring.
This iron ball is actually an oversized grenade. Gervis originally prepared it to kill large groups of enemies at certain times, but now he can only give it a try.
He immediately used the ignition technique to ignite two watermelon-sized grenades, and then placed them under the stone pillar. Then Gervis turned and left.
"Big Watermelon, you two better do your best!"
Boom! Suddenly, the earth-shattering explosion sounded again in the square.
However, what stunned Gervis was that even after two large watermelons were presented, the totem pole was still as stable as a rock, only a little blackened.
"Despicable human!!"
"Blood Oath, Violent Slash!"
The next moment, without giving Gervis any chance to attack the totem pole, the orc leader had already arrived close to Gervis.
When he saw the gap and the blackened totem pole, he was so furious that he slashed at Gervis with his strongest blow.
"Blood Moon Death Slash!"
Gervis felt the astonishing momentum contained in the orc leader's attack and did not dare to underestimate it. He immediately raised his sword and slashed out the Blood Moon Death Slash to resist.
Boom!
The two sword beams collided with each other in the square, instantly forming a terrifying shock wave, which instantly shook all the nearby orcs back seven or eight meters.
"Hiss! So strong!"
After the collision, Gervis couldn't help but take two steps back. Although this orc leader was only at the mid-level Red Flag level, he had the blessing of the totem pole and at least had the strength of a high-level Red Flag level.
On the contrary, due to the suppression of the totem pole, Gervis could only exert 90% of his strength.
"Surround him! I want to skin him and eat his flesh!"
Seeing that Gervis had actually withstood the attack intact, the orc leader gave orders again, asking the dozen or so subordinates to surround Gervis.
"This time we're in big trouble! This is their home turf, we can't outlast them at all!"
Gervis frowned, his expression somewhat solemn. Now that he had run out of energy points, he did not have many gold coins left. He could only redeem 10 more energy points at most. But the problem was that this was the orcs' home turf, and he was now trapped. If he did not kill the Red Flag Knight, he would not be able to escape.
Originally, if the totem pole had been destroyed, Gervis would not be afraid of the mid-level Red Flag orc leader. Even if he could not kill him, he could not stop Gervis from harvesting other orcs.
But now that this mid-level Red Flag orc leader has the blessing of the totem pole, Gervis has to be careful and guard against him, otherwise he will definitely be seriously injured if he is hit by the sword.
"No matter what, exchange 10 energy points first, just in case..."
"Everyone, come together! Capture him alive!"
However, just as Gervis was about to exchange the gold coins, the orcs did not give him the opportunity. Following the order given by the orc leader, all the orcs waved their weapons and surrounded and killed Gervis.
Seeing this, Gervis had no choice but to shut down the system immediately and start dealing with the orcs' siege.
As the saying goes, two hands are no match for four, with the orc leader as a strong enemy to hold them back, the white flag knights and black flag knight orcs who were not a threat originally became the biggest threat to Gervis.
Once Gervis was pinned down by their leader, they all attacked Gervis at the same time.
As a result, Gervis was forced by the orcs to fight and retreat.
"Earth Dragon Critical Attack!"
At this moment, the orc leader suddenly roared and changed his chop to a punch, and while Gervis was not paying attention, he punched Gervis in the chest.
At this moment, there were two long swords slashing towards him from the side of Gervis, and no matter how he dodged, he would be hit by one of them.
What Gervis was most afraid of was taking a head-on attack from the orc leader, even if it was a fist, so without any hesitation, he stretched out his hand and punched the orc leader.
At the same time, the other hand was wielding the sword to block the fatal blow towards his neck.
Bang! Puff! Bang!
The next moment, the sound of a sword piercing flesh was heard in the field, and the sword that Gervis could not block directly hit the shoulder of his right arm.
It immediately split open the mithril chain mail under his clothes, and then cut into his flesh.
Fortunately, the one who attacked him was just a White Flag Knight, and Gervis had chain mail to defend himself, so he managed to avoid having his entire arm chopped off.
However, after being hit by such a sword that reached the bone, his arm was broken today. Because of the pain in his arm, Gervis's sword even fell to the ground with a clang.
This was not the end yet, because the impact of the orc leader's punch was too strong, and Gervis was blown away and hit directly on the wall where the natives were previously imprisoned.
Crash!
The moment Gervis hit the wall, it collapsed immediately like a loose building block, and brick and stone dust filled the area.
“Ahem!”
When the smoke and dust cleared a little, Gervis's stiffness reappeared in front of everyone.
But at this moment, his shoulder was covered in blood, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth after two coughs.
"Foolish human! This is what happens when you offend the great beastmen! Today I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death!"
The orc leader calmed down after Gervis was blown away. With such injuries, he even lost his weapon. This human was already in his pocket. He immediately sneered and mocked him.
"Haha! Do you think you've won? You forced me to do this!"
Gervis sneered, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were filled with anger.
He had only been injured so seriously twice, and this was the third time.
"You natives, get out of here now. If you can't reach the city wall within two minutes, you will die!"
After speaking to the beastman leader, Gervis shouted coldly at the descendant of the servant of God behind him without even turning his head.
After hearing what Gervis said, the descendants of the gods' servants did not move. Instead, they all huddled together in the corner.
"Get out of here! Do you hear me?"
Gervis roared again! The next moment, the natives finally couldn't stand Gervis's murderous intent anymore, and immediately stood up and fled from the big hole in the collapsed wall, heading towards the city wall.
"Human, don't play these tricks, you can't get away with it!"
"If you can tell us who sent you, we promise to reduce the time it takes to torture you to just one day!"
Seeing those descendants of God's servants fleeing under the pressure of Gervis, the orc leader had no intention of letting anyone stop them. He thought that this human boy wanted to take advantage of the chaos and use a trick to escape.
Therefore, he now wants to see what tricks this human is planning to use. Then he will let him know that everything is in vain in the face of absolute strength.
Make him regret, make him despair! "Haha! Don't be so sure, just wait and see what tricks I want to play!"
Gervis sneered immediately, then took out a purple scroll from the space ring.
"Tell me, can your totem pole protect you this time?"
"Forbidden spell scroll? Bastard! How dare you!"
Snap!
Thanks to "Xiuxian Laosijile" for the reward!!!
