The screen in front of me suddenly began to spin, and a pop-up window appeared in front of me.
[You have triggered a special character dungeon. Would you like to open it now? (Note: The current dungeon only lasts for 4 hours. If it is not opened after 4 hours, the dungeon will automatically expire.)]
A special copy? And the opening time is also limited.
Xia Yao's intuition told her that this copy was related to the sudden sense of déjà vu in her mind and the two orcs in front of her.
After thinking for a moment, she suddenly withdrew her hand.
"You...you won't kill us anymore?" The orc Eugene had a pair of very beautiful eyes. Unlike Rex's golden brown eyes, Eugene's pupils were pure gold, and there was a sense of spirituality in the brightness. "He" had just fallen to the ground, and now he turned over, his eyes full of surprise.
Xia Yao glanced at "him" and made a bow-drawing motion, which automatically shifted to her back. "You guys go."
Eugene bit his lower lip. Although he still found it unbelievable, he didn't hesitate. He stood up and ran to Rex, trying hard to support him. "Can you still walk?"
However, Rex's chest was pierced by an arrow, and it was not a minor injury. Every movement he made caused pain in his entire chest.
Xia Yao said nothing, took out a big red bottle and threw it in front of them.
Eugene: "This is...?"
Xia Yao: "It's a blood-replenishing potion. Drink it."
His beautiful eyes flashed, and the next second Eugene pulled out the cork and poured the medicine into Rex's mouth.
I never thought about whether the bottle contained poison.
He's a very simple orc, Xia Yao thought.
The red potion also has an effect on orcs. After drinking it, Rex's wound recovered at a very fast speed. After a while, the wound healed and the arrow automatically fell out of the wound.
"Is this the human potion they were talking about?! It really works." Eugene stared at the empty bottle that had been drunk, muttering in surprise.
Just then a gust of wind blew, and the iron pieces on Eugene's head loosened, and fell to the ground one by one.
"Oh, my hair!" "He" hurried to pick it up, but did not notice that the hair on his head had been scattered.
The sun shone down, and his long hair, as golden as his pupils, fluttered down and gently swayed at his waist with the wind.
Xia Yao's eyes flashed slightly. As expected, Eugene was a female orc disguised as a man.
It was exactly the same as the visual experience that flashed through her mind.
Eugene didn't know what Xia Yao was thinking. She was very panicked, thinking that she would be killed by humans after her true identity was exposed. However, she didn't expect that the other party was so calm, and didn't care at all about her disguised as a man.
It seems that the human race is not as bullying as the tribe members say, she thought to herself.
From birth, the elders of the Orc tribe told the little orcs that humans are good at bullying, especially when they find underage orcs or female orcs, humans will shift the focus of their attacks to them, so as to use the weak as a breakthrough point.
This is the same loss we suffered in previous battles with humans.
Therefore, a rule was made within the tribe a long time ago that anyone under the age of 16 and female orcs were no longer allowed to go to the battlefield, and male orcs became the main force on the battlefield.
Eugene is a female orc, but she has always wanted to go to the front line since she was a child.
She never listened to the elders' nonsense like "female orcs can only cook and sew, they are incapable of anything else". We are all orcs, so why should the entire group be defined by gender?
Seeing that the Orc Corps was recruiting scout orcs this time, she naturally came up with an idea.
Her long golden hair was wrapped up and fixed with a headpiece used by male beastmen. She spoke in a rough voice and walked a little wildly. With the help (protection) of Rex, she successfully blended in and took on the scout mission this time.
However, it suffered a Waterloo right at the start...
But fortunately, the other party had no intention of taking their lives?
Eugene couldn't figure out Xia Yao's thoughts, but that didn't stop her from dragging the recovered Rex away.
The two orcs walked away quickly, leaving Xia Yao alone in the forest.
It seems that the military merit mission cannot be completed.
Xia Yao looked at the military merit tasks and copy prompts on the panel, thought for a moment, and finally raised her hand and placed it on the small copy box.
The scene in front of her eyes changed, and she was standing... oh no, she was huddled in a corner.
With thin legs and arms, it is obvious that he does not have the body shape of an adult.
Yes, she was dressed as a child in the dungeon.
Xia Yao was about to stand up when suddenly, a group of children about the same age as the original owner ran into the corner and started punching and kicking Xia Yao.
"Little bastard, get out of our territory!"
"Without awakened power, you are not worthy of being an orc!"
"I'll beat you to death, I must beat you to death!"
My goodness, did he get some kind of sadistic script?
Xia Yao's face turned cold. She raised her eyes and grabbed the arm of one of the little orcs: "Try to curse me again?"
The little orc was startled, probably not expecting her, who was used to being beaten, to suddenly resist. But when he remembered that he had companions, his suspicions immediately dissipated, and his eyes became arrogant again: "A little bastard born from a human hybrid, you dare to warn me? Go to hell!"
After saying that, he raised his foot and was about to kick Xia Yao.
The hand that was originally holding the little orc loosened because of this. Xia Yao clearly felt the lack of strength in this body, so she simply used her head to push it out.
The little orc fell back in pain after being hit in the abdomen by her. Xia Yao took this opportunity to pass through the group of little orcs.
But my physical condition is not good enough. I feel exhausted after running just a few steps.
Seeing that a group of little orcs behind her were about to catch up, Xia Yao gritted her teeth and decided to fight them to the death!
However, at this time, two other little orcs chased in from outside, one male and one female. The male clenched his fists and the female held a wooden stick, and their expressions were more ferocious than the other.
"Who among you dares to take a step forward? See if my fist can still recognize you!"
"Want to experience the feeling of being beaten with a stick? Come on, I'll beat you to a pulp!"
I don’t know if it’s because they are so powerful, but the little beastmen who were so arrogant before suddenly became timid. They glanced at Xia Yao unwillingly, then slipped away one by one with their necks shrunken.
"You little bastard! If you have the ability, just rely on yourself. You always rely on your friends for help. What kind of hero are you!" After running away, the little orc at the end couldn't help but turned back and cursed.
The blonde female orc snorted, then turned back and looked at Xia Yao with concern: "Are you hurt? Is there any pain? If it hurts, tell me, I still have some herbs."
Xia Yao looked at the person in front of her and frowned slightly: "I'm not injured, it doesn't hurt."
It looked like Eugene, but she knew that this little orc was not Eugene.
Seeing this, the male orc interrupted and said, "Let's not talk here for now. Let's go somewhere else."
Xia Yao followed behind the two men, running so weakly.
After finally following him to a cave outside the village, she finally had time to sit down on the ground.
The little orc who looked very similar to Eugene took out a small bottle from a small bag woven from vines and said, "Drink some of this. It will help strengthen your orc physique."
Xia Yao said thank you and drank it.
The potion didn't taste very good, but it did help her regain her strength.
"Your potion is really powerful." She praised sincerely.
Of course, it is also to further obtain information.
Who does this body belong to? And why is it so weak?
Xia Yao couldn't find any information about the original owner in her mind, so she could only rely on this method.
The two little orcs are obviously very powerful too.
Male orc: "Of course not! Don't you see who Elvina is? She is Gusi, the most powerful genius in our tribe!"
Guxi?
Xia Yao tilted her head suspiciously.
Elvina clenched her fist under her mouth and coughed twice, looking quite proud: "Haru, he doesn't know yet, I was awarded the title of Gusi by the tribal elders this morning."
Haru smiled innocently, "Gusi means 'wise healer' in our ancient orc language. Elvina is the first one born in our tribe. She will definitely be recruited into the legion as a healer in the future!"
Oh~ Now Xia Yao understood.
Guxi = Physician = A combination of the human race's Holy Light Messenger and the pharmacist
That's really impressive.
Xia Yao was pondering this inwardly when Haru slapped her back hard. "Hey, Bazel, can you please stand up straight? We agreed to join the Legion together. Look, Elvina has already been reserved, and I've also awakened 'Beastial Fury' and will be recruited when I reach adulthood. When will you show off your abilities?"
Elvina quickly kicked Haru and glared at him: "Can you speak? Be careful or I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Haru cried: "Oh, I was wrong, I was wrong. You know I'm not good at talking. Bazel is so kind, he will definitely not blame me, hehe~"
"You even said I won't treat you next time!"
"Ahhh no, don't be angry~"
Xia Yao didn't hear anything about the conversation between the two. The only thing she noticed was the identity of this body—it was actually Bazel?!
Isn't he a human exorcist poet? How did he become an orc?
And it’s the very weak one?
At this time, the scene of fighting in the cave faded away, the picture in front of my eyes temporarily turned black, and several text boxes emerged.
[Successfully collected character card - Elvina]
[Successfully collected character card - Haru]
[Successfully obtained the current identity——Bazel]
[Current copy progress 20%]
[Current character collection progress 10%]
Hiss, the dungeon progress and card collection progress are different~
If we calculate based on 10%, a total of 20 character cards need to be collected for this copy.
Her collection progress is slower than that of the dungeon, which means that she should have been able to collect several from the little orcs who bullied her just now.
What a pity. I just arrived and haven’t quite figured out the situation yet.
Xia Yao was secretly shocked and prepared to step up her collection in the next stage.
The black screen faded, and in a blink of an eye she was standing in front of the orc army tent.
The orc leader standing on a high place raised his arms and shouted something, and then a tsunami-like response came to his ears.
"Bazel, what are you daydreaming about? We're going to the front line soon, hurry up and get ready."
Xia Yao came to her senses and found that Elvina had pushed her.
Elvina's face had matured a lot, and she looked like an adult. Xia Yao nodded quickly and said okay.
"Don't worry, Haru is on your team and he will protect you." Elvina whispered to her before leaving.
Xia Yao was stunned for a moment, then looked down at her body. Although her legs had become longer and she had grown taller, compared to other orcs, her body looked particularly thin.
It completely matches Xia Yao's impression of Basel wearing a cloak.
However, Xia Yao's frail figure also made her the target of ridicule from other orcs in the same team.
"A half-orc has the nerve to join the army? Isn't he afraid that we'll get hungry and eat him along the way? Hahaha!"
"If you can't even swing a basic machete, you'll just be sending heads to the humans on the battlefield."
"Why would the Corps recruit such a useless person when he hasn't awakened any abilities?
"He has to join, or else it will bring shame to his father, the leader."
Half-orc, awakened powers, father of the leader.
Well, she seems to have gained a lot of information.
Xia Yao pricked up her ears and listened attentively, not looking dejected at all after being scolded.
Seeing that the orcs in the same team stopped talking, she turned her head away.
A group of orcs were frightened by her burning gaze.
"What? What are you looking at?!"
"If you have the guts, awaken your own abilities and let us take a good look!"
Xia Yao pretended not to hear their curses and walked closer step by step. Although Basel was thin, he was not short. When facing the group of teammates in front of her, Xia Yao could look them in the eye.
She approached with interest and asked the first face, "What's your name?"
Teammate No. 1:?
"...Pollick?"
[Successfully collected character card - Bolick]
very good.
Then he leaned in closer to the second face: "What about you? Tell me your name."
Teammate No. 2: ? ?
"...I...Seth."
[Successfully collected character card - Seth]
Just like a teacher calling out names, in this scene, Xia Yao perfectly collected 5 cards.
As for the other orcs, Xia Yao made the same inquiries and found that she could not get their names. This means that some characters are just passers-by who make up the numbers and are not counted in the collection progress.
The scene is recycled again, and the text box prompts:
[Current copy progress 40%]
[Current character collection progress 35%]
The third scene appeared. Before Xia Yao could see the scene clearly, she smelled a strong smell of blood.
"Bazel... run..."
“…We’ve fallen into a trap…”
