"Aminoshi!"
"Aminoshi!!"
Suddenly, they heard someone shouting in the orc language from a great distance!
The specific meaning of this sentence is not "hello", but the meaning is similar.
However, it is only used between orcs who do not know each other.
For example, in the forest, there are two beast-eared tribes from different tribes who have never met before. When they meet for the first time, they can use this word to express that they have no ill intentions.
Rather than saying "hello," it's more accurate to say "we're from the same hometown!"
Upon hearing "aminoshi," the beast-eared tribe members were taken aback.
It wasn't that they were surprised that the other party could use their language, but rather that it reminded them of the days when tribes fought side by side against the goblins.
Even between orcs who have never met before, a simple "aminoshi" can put both sides at ease and show that they are friends.
But now, when they hear those words again, can they still expose themselves to each other's sight as before, bumping fists to explain their intentions?
Perhaps we could pretend to be harmless, blend in with them, and then suddenly make a move?
Such a terrifying thought crossed the minds of some orcs.
However, they immediately rejected it.
They can ambush their opponents, and their ambushes are perfectly legitimate.
Infiltrating the enemy ranks, feigning goodwill, and then launching a sneak attack is an unforgivable and despicable tactic!
If they used that tactic, they shouldn't be called orc warriors anymore, right?
Even if fighting for goblins is beneath their dignity, at least they are fighting to protect their families.
"Hey! Did you all hear that?!"
The orcs led the way, shouting;
"They have no intention of fighting us! But we are very sorry to them! We must protect our families!"
Since we're going to fight, let's show our spirit and settle this once and for all!
It's better to die at their hands than at the hands of goblins!
"Let them use their hands! Come and end the lives of us cowards!!"
"Roar--!!"
……
From afar, a wild, roaring sound echoed through the silent forest.
"What's going on?" Layton turned to look at Annie.
Those two "aminoshi" shouts were from him; he's the loudest one here.
"The beast-eared tribe is speeding towards us." The Leaf Warrior sensed the situation through the leaves.
A flash of white light appeared in An Yi's hand, and the [Four-Handed Sword] appeared: "Prepare for battle."
The other heroes also frowned and drew their weapons.
They didn't know what had happened, but even if An Yi didn't say anything, they could vaguely sense that something was wrong.
No one thought the other party would be too excited to rush over.
The fact that the opponent used [Stealth] indicates that they were deliberately hiding and preparing to ambush.
It's like a group of people carrying big knives and axes, walking in aggressively; no one would think they're there to hold a concert.
"Orcs are not very resilient, and with our attributes, we can easily kill them."
"So hold back as much as possible, just break their limbs to render them unable to fight or move," An Yi instructed.
"..."
Wasn't that a pretty heavy blow?!
An Yi continued, "As long as there are no serious injuries, Her Highness the Saintess can easily heal them."
"Don't kill a single one of them, then subdue them."
"it is good!"
Unlike the other party, who was determined to die.
For the heroes, every extra survivor means one more member to fight goblins in the future.
Moreover, the hero is a hero who fights against demons, not against orcs, and there is no need for him to kill them.
What they need to do is not kill the orcs...
It's about saving the orcs!
"Then—let me lead the charge!"
The Leaf Warrior's abilities are limited at the edge of the forest, but this is definitely his home turf!
"Sh ...
The forest suddenly became restless, and the leaves within a radius of a kilometer began to tremble violently, making countless chaotic sounds.
Even though it was a windless night, the forest was as turbulent as if it were experiencing a storm.
Just as the orcs were about to rush into the area where the heroes were, a large number of leaves suddenly began to rustle, and countless sounds from all directions almost made them lose their hearing!
"What's going on?!" an orc shouted, covering his ears.
"Bang!!"
Just then, there was another muffled thud, and they saw the trees in front of them move!
It moved! The forest moved!
The leaves swept in like ocean waves, as if a sea of trees was engulfing them, almost instantly swallowing up the more than forty orcs.
They were covered in countless leaves, and could even feel the leaves sticking up their ears and noses, but they were unable to shake them off as if they were in a quagmire, and could only wave their arms wildly inside.
As soon as one of the orcs opened his mouth to speak, his mouth was stuffed with a huge pile of leaves. He didn't even have the strength to catch his breath, let alone speak!
Just then, an orc instinctively sensed danger—
"Whoosh!"
"puff!!"
The swift arrow flew through the leaves and struck him squarely in the shoulder.
The orc felt his whole body go limp, and then he was swept away by countless leaves, completely unable to resist.
[Hero of the Bow: A paralyzing arrow has struck an orc, who is now unable to fight back.]
The Shield Hero: Knocks out an orc! I don't know if I used the right amount of force, I hope I don't get killed!
The Hero of the Thorns: He severed the tendons of five orcs... six...
Holy Hero: That's going too far! And don't use heads to calculate it!
Fortunately, it can be reattached and cured, otherwise these orcs would be disabled in their limbs for life!
[Sword Hero: Capture seven orcs.]
Hammer Hero: Stun three!
Leaf Warrior: Thirteen orcs from the south are fleeing outwards! I've held them off!
The Hero of the Thorns: I'll go after them.
"Shashasha——" Temple
After an unknown amount of time, the leaves fell one after another, leaving the trees within a kilometer radius completely bare, standing out starkly in the forest like the receding hairline of a balding middle-aged man.
On the clearing cleared by the heroes, a group of orcs, their bodies covered in leaves, lay sprawled on the ground, their noses, ears, and mouths stuffed with leaves.
Some of the orcs even had needles stuck in their eyelids; it looked painful. (Six)
The resolve to die that I had just felt vanished as I was smeared with leaves. (Temple)
What do you mean by showing some fighting spirit? What do you mean by dying at the hands of humans? Damn it, I almost got choked to death by leaves!
The orcs were either paralyzed, stunned, or had their limbs dislocated or tendons severed, rendering them unable to move.
Lycorina was of little use throughout, and she only managed a slight smirk when she saw the orcs' miserable state.
With an awkward laugh, she raised her staff, preparing to cast [Holy Healing].
"Wait." An Yi grabbed her staff and pressed it back down. "Tie her up first. Does anyone have chains?"
Lycorina: "Who would carry something like that around?!"
Milu threw her backpack to the ground with a heavy thud and a metallic scraping sound: "I brought it."
Lycorina: "So it wasn't dry rations inside?!"
"Can the chains really hold them back?" asked Shara, the archer.
Annie: "It's not about preventing them from escaping."
Shara: "?"
An Yi: "It's tied up so it'll be easier for us to carry it back."
……
Feeling the turbulence, some of the orcs awoke.
"Um……?"
He suddenly realized that he was pressed against several other members of his clan, lying horizontally on top of them!
I wanted to exert force, but my whole body felt numb and I couldn't muster any strength.
"#@#￥? (Are you awake?)"
Just then, a female voice that I couldn't understand came from the side.
The orc glanced sideways at Qi; it was a female with short, golden hair. lin★／qi! ”ba》¨lin§
