Although not many people fully believed the story about the Black Ranger that circulated in the Organ Tavern, the name of the Black Ranger has been spread since then.
As more and more wild orcs gathered and a new war was about to break out, the entire Bia Kingdom felt unprecedentedly depressed.
What’s interesting is that because the orcs’ offensive intentions became increasingly obvious, the Biya Kingdom asked the other three Soma kingdoms for help, hoping that based on the principle of sharing the same hatred and the same enemy, they could jointly resist the invasion of foreign races.
However, when the envoys went to other countries, they did not get the response that the Kingdom of Biya hoped for. Other upper echelons of the Soma Kingdom generally believed that the orcs had only expanded the scale of looting before the winter this year and would soon retreat. It was impossible for them to send out a large army to attack in the freezing winter.
There was even a hint of wanting to make fun of the Bia Kingdom, or even take this opportunity to let the orcs weaken the Bia Kingdom's national strength.
This situation made the great nobles and royal family of the Bia Kingdom feel very disappointed. The other kingdoms did not realize the abnormality of the wild orcs this time, and even thought about gaining some benefits from the Bia Kingdom at this juncture.
In addition to mobilizing troops to the western front, the Kingdom of Bia cannot even move the heavy troops on the border in other directions. At least a considerable number must be maintained to prevent those countries from taking advantage of the situation. After all, there are few jokes in politics and sometimes they can easily come true.
Of course, the decision-makers of the Biya Kingdom actually had similar ideas. Although they were already alarmed by the obvious abnormality of the wild orcs this time, many people also believed that they would retreat around the time winter really came.
However, the losses suffered by the kingdom are certainly unprecedented in recent years.
It was noon again, by the bonfire outside the yellow field, Riva sprinkled handfuls of prepared soil into the fire to extinguish the bonfire, and then poured a pot of water on it to completely eliminate the open flame.
The broadsword placed nearby had many notches on it and was obviously no longer as sharp as before, to the point where it affected its use.
"This sword is like this, it can't be used, right?"
Yui was jumping around twirling her hair.
But Riva still picked up the broadsword, which had a special meaning to him.
"I'm used to it. It's already my old friend. I'm going to find a place to repair it."
"Humph, I'm your only friend! It's nothing!"
Yui jumped to the side of the broadsword angrily, stretched out his leg and kicked it, knocking the broadsword down with a "bang", and then continued to attack the fallen broadsword with his punches.
The clever Yui has already knitted a nice-looking dress for herself, like a fluffy halter dress, which flutters in this scene with her hair.
"You guy, are all the stars like you?"
Riva was also amused by Yui's angry movements with a broadsword.
"No, I'm the most special star!"
Yui answered confidently after finishing his work.
"By the way, you've been giving money to the refugees you meet recently. Do you have any money left to repair your weapons? Repairing weapons should cost money, right?"
"Don't worry, I have some reserved!"
Riva opened a corner of his windbreaker and found several platinum coins in the inner pocket, with a fairly large denomination.
"Well, you're not that stupid after all. Now we can go see how famous we are!"
Yui's words actually touched Riva's heart. After all, he was still a little vain.
When the two were getting ready to leave, Qin Xiaoxia's thought body had just returned to the campfire. Looking at the two people who seemed to be leisurely, he felt a little helpless.
During this period of time, Qin was the one running around to understand the situation. He used his thoughts and physical strength to reach the maximum distance to understand everything and the latest developments of the Soma people and the wild beasts.
He also constantly guided Riva and Youyi through their minds, allowing them to naturally choose some paths and encounter some "emergencies", while also allowing them to avoid large groups of wild orcs when they were not strong enough.
Youyi now blindly believes that Riva's strength is already very strong because of the "recognition blessing" of Dawn. Only Qin Xiaoxia, who is both a father and a mother, knows that Riva's progress is the result of his hard work.
'The sad thing is that the parents and their children don't know yet...'
Qin Xiaoxia sighed in his heart again, but he was not pretentious. It was not easy for him to find fun nowadays.
Strapping the broadsword back on their backs, Riva and Yui quickly set off.
"Let's go this way. There should be a bigger city in that direction. There will be good blacksmiths there!"
Yui naturally chose a suitable path, and moved forward by somersaults and leaps, as if he had endless experience.
"How do you know it's that way? Shouldn't we be facing due east?"
"Oh, I just feel like I should go this way. Besides, I'm a star, I can see clearly in the sky, how could I not know the way!!"
Riva scratched his head.
"Haven't you been lost before?"
"Don't worry about the details!"
…
Although the two seemed to be playing, they were actually moving quite fast. In more than an hour, they had already walked about ten kilometers.
Yui, who was originally careless, soon noticed something and rushed forward quickly. Seeing her action, Riva did not dare to delay and hurried to follow.
Not far ahead, a fight was going on. A team of about a hundred people, consisting of the Soma Kingdom Army and mercenaries, attacked a newly built outpost of the Wild Orcs.
Everywhere there were the sounds of beasts neighing and weapons clashing, as well as screams.
…
“Puff~”
An officer of the Kingdom Army riding on a horned beast beheaded a strong wild orc with a long-handled machete. A trail of blood spurted out as the weapon was swung, while an archer on the back seat of the horned beast kept shooting arrows.
"Hurry up and kill that beast officer!!!"
"Lance!! Lance, hurry up!!!"
While fighting and giving orders, four or five spearmen rushed from the rear and ran towards the orc warrior wielding a sledgehammer.
"Roar!!! Damn Soma people!!!"
The wild orc took out a short axe from his waist and threw it hard at the Soma officer. The latter didn't dare to take it head-on. He bent down to avoid it as soon as he heard the wind.
"Bang!"
The archer on the back seat of the horned beast was hit directly by the short axe. He was knocked to the ground by the huge force, twitched twice and then became motionless.
“Ah!!!” “Die!!!” “Damn beast!!!”
The spearmen charged at the orcs.
"roar!!!"
Two nearby orcs also rushed over to resist the spearmen. More orcs also headed in this direction but were blocked by soldiers from other kingdoms.
"Puff", "Puff", "Puff"...blood spurted out.
A Soma corpse was thrown directly from not far away, and hit right in front of the spearman's spear, piercing through it.
"roar!!!"
The orc officer jumped directly onto the corpse and swung the terrible hammer to the horror of the spearmen, making a whistling sound.
“Bang” “Bang” “Bang”…
Three soldiers were hit directly, and only two of them were able to release their guns in time and escape.
“Kill them!!!”
"Cowardly Soma Beast!!!"
"roar!!!!"
The wild beastmen brandished their rough weapons and defeated the kingdom's army and mercenaries around them. Only a few of them fell down, while most of them had scars all over their bodies but showed bloodthirsty and cruel smiles.
“Roar!!!” “Roar!!!” “Roar!!!”
One by one, all the wild orcs began to roar like wild beasts.
There is already a significant gap in morale between the two sides.
Although there were only forty or fifty people in the attacked Orc outpost, their fighting power was so strong that it seemed that the attacking Imperial Army was unable to resist, especially when there were some mercenaries among them whose discipline and coordination were far inferior.
The beast-like roar brought excitement and bloodthirstiness to the orcs, but brought great fear to the Soma soldiers.
"Stop them!! The kingdom needs this information, stop them!!!"
The officer shouted the order, then raised his whip and hit the horned beast hard, then rushed out of the battle area and fled.
