Joey drew his longsword, cut the rope, and jumped onto the sailboat.
He glanced at Daines, who was running this way, and began to raise the mainsail.
As soon as the mainsail was unfurled, the sailboat began to slowly leave the harbor. It seems that Joey is no novice at sailing; his movements are quite skillful.
The five archers' quiver was quickly emptied, while only a few of the charging orcs fell. Even with their defenses intact, the archers were still not enough to kill the orcs.
They drew their short swords from their waists, staring intently at the charging orcs, their eyes resolute.
The five heavily armored female soldiers stood in front of the archers. Even though the five archers had been forced into melee combat, the heavy armored soldiers' duties remained unchanged.
Protecting the archers behind them is their duty. Facing the enemy without fear, even if the enemy outnumbers them by dozens of times, is their code of conduct.
"kill!"
As one heavily armored female soldier raised her sword and shouted, ten female soldiers charged forward without hesitation towards the orcs.
Scholar Daines had already boarded the sailboat, and with the female soldiers providing cover, Joey was able to adjust the speed of the sailboat so that the college student could catch up.
The sailboats continued to leave the harbor, while the battle on the shore was already a horrific sight.
The heads of two heavily armored female soldiers were chopped off by giant axes and rolled to the ground, blood gushing from their necks, staining their armor and the orcs around them red.
The orcs, clutching their armor, carried their corpses as if admiring a work of art, their eyes filled with excitement.
Three female archers wielding short swords have already fallen in battle, and one of their corpses was being toyed with by a brutal orc.
He snatched the dagger from the female soldier's hand and slashed open her stomach, spilling her internal organs onto the ground in a horrifying sight.
Many more enemies surged in from behind. Seeing that Joey's sailboat had already left the harbor, many orcs stood still and roared, venting their resentment.
As Joey steered the ship, he noticed a group of tall, hunched trolls carrying longbows, speeding toward the shore.
"Watch out, find cover!"
He shouted a warning while securing the rudder.
He casually picked up a large piece of supplies and held it over his head, not forgetting to find cover for his dear Lady Catherine.
Big Beard and Danes followed suit and did just that.
Then came a hail of arrows, which lasted for a long time until the sailboat had gone far away.
Joey lowered the cover; the fighting on the shore had stopped, and the trolls looked smaller.
The five female soldiers who were just alive are no longer visible; they must be dead. Under those circumstances, they could not have survived.
Joey's expression was not good. Although he had not spent much time with these female soldiers and had just had a conflict, he still admired their spirit of fighting bravely and not fearing death.
There is no such thing as a peaceful and carefree life; it's just that someone is bearing the burden for you!
These are the people I'm talking about!
The bearded man and Daines also fell silent, turning their heads away, no longer wanting to look at the scene on the shore.
Joey also looked away. At this moment, the sailboat was like a hedgehog, with arrows stuck all over the entire ship.
He looked up along the mast and saw that there were more than a dozen small holes in the mainsail, but fortunately it didn't have a big impact, and the sailboat had already picked up speed.
What puzzled Joey was why the sunlight at the end of the mast had turned green, as if a green sun was falling towards him.
A green sun—Joey seemed to have read about it in a book. What exactly was it? He quickly searched his mind for the information he wanted.
"Speed up! Speed up!"
Before Joey could recall the origin of the green sun, Daines suddenly shouted anxiously, his eyes filled with terror.
"That's the Horde warlock's hellfire!"
