"Damn it, that damn noble ran away!!!"
“We have been abandoned!!”
“Puff~” “Ah!!!”
“Help me!!”
After the commander fled, the kingdom's army suddenly fell into chaos, with mercenaries and kingdom soldiers all cursing in fear and anger.
In the clash of flesh and blood, this situation almost immediately caused a chain reaction of morale collapse.
Some soldiers and mercenaries who saw the bad situation and were relatively far behind quickly chose to flee. Originally there were about 80 people left in the kingdom's army, but now only 20 to 30 people ran away.
Having lost their numerical advantage, the remaining people were immediately in danger. In just a short while, seven or eight of them were chopped down by the wild orcs, but the rest were almost all bitten by the wild orcs and could not escape at all, otherwise they would have died immediately.
"These Soma people can't escape anymore!!! Kill them all!!"
“Roar!!!” “Roar!!!” “Roar!!!”
Although more than a dozen wild orcs fell, they became even more cruel and bloodthirsty, with their fangs and sharp teeth exposed in their violent roars.
In a short period of time, this small battlefield quickly turned into a massacre.
Riva and Yui happened to see this scene from a distance, witnessing the officers fleeing and the Kingdom's army collapsing.
"If we don't help, they'll be dead! Yui, help me keep an eye on the surroundings!"
Riva rushed out without thinking twice. He had experienced fighting four giants in the dark and had seen broken limbs and arms torn by the giants. Few situations could scare him anymore.
A spearman of the Kingdom Army was facing the axe attack of a Wild Orc. His shield soldier comrade, who was supposed to share the pressure at this moment, was in danger from the attack of another Wild Orc and could only raise his spear to block.
"Bang~" A huge force came from the gun barrel, making his arms numb and he could hardly hold the gun barrel.
"Bang!"
The spearman was kicked hard in the chest at this moment. He fell to the ground with his weapon, his consciousness blurred by the pain.
"roar!!!"
The roar of the wild orcs was so close that I could even feel the breath of their roar.
“I’m dead…”
"puff!"
The scorching liquid splashed on his face, and then gushed out like water, soaking half of the spearman's body.
The wild orc was kneeling down with his hands covering his neck, and the blood gushing out from between his hands foreshadowed his fate.
When the spearman was wondering if it was a comrade, a man in a black windbreaker brushed past him. There was still a line of blood on the broadsword that Riva was swinging from the orc's neck. He had already pulled out the dagger with his left hand and swung it fiercely to the side.
Seven or eight meters away, on the side of another kingdom sword and shield soldier who was about to die, a wild beastman fell down with his eyes covered, and a flying dagger was stuck in his left eye.
"when!!!"
A sharp noise sounded beside him, and Riva directly blocked the war hammer of the orc leader with his broadsword. The sparks flying from it could be clearly seen in the daytime.
His expression was grim and the war hammer swung by the orc leader with brute force was obviously not easy for Riva to catch.
"ah!!!!!"
Riva roared, and the next moment after blocking the warhammer, he leaned back to relieve the remaining impact of the warhammer, and swept his legs fiercely at the leader of the wild orcs.
"Bang!"
The latter was kicked in the leg, lost his balance, and was slashed across the neck by Riva's swung broadsword.
“Puff…”
The spurting blood dyed one side of Riva's face and hair red. His body bounced up and jumped away in the next moment, avoiding the axe attack of a wild orc.
As he leaped, another dagger shot out, piercing the palm of another orc, causing him to let go of his weapon and lose his balance.
The mercenary at the side randomly and fiercely thrust his sword into the opponent's neck.
The moment Riva entered the venue, his iconic black leather trench coat moved to several places.
Killing three and injuring one, although the number seems not large, it almost attracted the attention of the entire audience.
"If you don't want to die, help me to kill these beasts!!"
Riva is well aware of the principle instilled in him by Yui that "a ruthless person doesn't talk much". His words are brief but very loud, and the rest is done by his actions.
The no longer sharp broadsword is still a death reaper in his hand. Riva's strength can only be said to be similar to that of the orc leader, but his overall physical fitness is very good, and his agility and observation skills are not inferior.
As long as there are Kingdom Army soldiers to share the pressure, being a reaper will hardly cause any injuries.
"It's Black Ranger!!!"
"Brothers, it's the Black Ranger!!! Kill these filthy beasts!!!"
“Kill them!!!”
“We want to live!!!”
"Keep the formation!! Stay the formation!!!"
The veteran soldier in the army roared loudly, taking the place of the officers. With the arrival of the Black Ranger and the killing of the leader of the Wild Orcs, the morale of the Kingdom Army recovered quickly.
The spearmen and shieldmen reunited, and the mercenaries' swords, spears and axes also gathered together. The three remaining archers took quivers from their dead comrades, and they kept drawing their bows even though their arms were already extremely sore.
This battlefield was not of a very large scale, but the fighting was extremely brutal, with blood and sweat shed together. The roars of the wild orcs and the howlings of the kingdom's army were mixed with the sound of swords and axes tearing into flesh and breaking bones.
“Puff~”
A scratched broadsword pierced through the head of an orc spearman, preventing him from throwing a spear.
“Bang… Bang…”
The last orc warrior knelt down and then fell to the ground. Before that, the broadsword had been pulled out of its head, and hot blood kept gushing out of the hole in its head.
“Huh…huh…huh…”
Riva's body kept rising and falling, and with every heavy breath, blood and sweat would drip from his temples and hem of his clothes. Charging into the military formation was not easy.
The remaining royal soldiers and mercenaries around were all covered in blood, and less than thirty people were still standing. They all looked at Riva solemnly and in awe.
The sound of heavy breathing was the only melody at the moment, and the silence was finally broken by a painful groan.
"Uh uh..."
A mercenary soldier, whose chest had been pierced by a javelin, was struggling on the ground.
"Sohel, you're alive!!!"
Two mercenaries ran to the soldier in ecstasy and held up his pale head.
"Fang Xin, this spear definitely didn't penetrate your vital organs. As long as you get to the city and pull out the spear, you will survive!!! We won't abandon you!!"
Everyone, including Riva, was attracted by this scene.
The mercenary seemed to have difficulty breathing, but he held his companion's hand tightly.
“Help me, help me take care of… uh… me… uh… me…”
"Asshole!! I won't help you!! I won't help you!!! You have to do it yourself..."
Before the mercenary could finish his words, he noticed that his companion's hands had lost strength.
"That damn officer deserted the battlefield!!"
The sound of bones rubbing against each other in clenched fists echoed in the crowd. These people who survived the bloody battle had enough respect for their comrades around them.
On the ground, there was another seriously injured spearman, originally lying in a pool of blood, but now he was struggling to stand up with his spear.
A soldier from the Kingdom Army and a mercenary nearby immediately squatted down and supported him.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The soldier seemed to be in better condition, but his eyes were fixed on the silent "Bloody" Ranger not far away.
"Sir Ranger... My injuries are already, enough for me to retire from the Kingdom Army... Can I follow you?"
These words made the mercenary's eyes light up!
"We have completed this mission, Lord Black Ranger, can we follow you?!"
"Yes, I am a mercenary, not a royal soldier. Can I follow you, Lord Black Ranger?"
The soldiers of the Kingdom Army around were also very tempted, but they were soldiers of the Kingdom, and it was illegal for them to leave the military control at will. The sense of superiority they had over the mercenaries was long gone, and now they even felt a little envious.
"Ahaha!! This is a brilliant idea!!"
Yui rushed over from a distance and sat on Riva's bloody shoulder without any hesitation.
"I agreed on behalf of Riva!!!"
Riva calmed his breathing and recovered from the aftereffects of the tremendous physical exertion.
"Let's send you back first. We can't stay here any longer. The orcs and giant monsters have a very sensitive sense of smell!"
Less than thirty people simply cleaned up the battlefield, supported their comrades, carried the wounded on a simple support, and quickly left.
By a stream in the forest, everyone stopped to rest and carefully examined their wounds again.
Youyi jumped to a support and squatted down.
"You're the first one who said you wanted to join Riva, right? Even though you're a bit useless, you're a promising talent. I'll protect you from now on!!"
The soldier originally had a lacerated wound on his chest and was bleeding profusely. Now the horrible wound was wrapped with a bandage-like cloth. Miraculously, his complexion and breath had improved a lot, and his eyes were shining with excitement.
"Thanks!"
