Chapter 15: waaaahg! !
"Bring cement and meet at the village entrance!"
At the lord's command, ten orc infantrymen immediately gripped their battle axes and lined up in a row on the path at the village entrance.
The tallest of them all, Grom Hellscream, stood at the very front, with Gorehowl, who was slightly shorter, standing next to him.
In addition, eight orcs were on high alert.
Shen Xing pushed the wheelchair, shielding the beastmen in front of him, and took out a crossbow.
"Huff huff..."
Monsters emerged from the mist, their twisted, slender bodies illuminated by the firelight, resembling moving dead trees.
There were a total of twenty-three Lost Ones, two of whom had reached the ordinary three-star level.
In front of this group of monsters were a dozen or so creatures that resembled hunting dogs, with bared fangs and exuding a black aura.
【Evil Dog】
[Level: 2]
[Potential: Average ★]
[Attributes: Strength 5, Spirit 8, Agility 11, Constitution 6]
[Skill: Pack of Hounds' Bite (Locks onto a single target, unleashing a frenzied attack and bite in coordination with other ferocious hounds, dealing +30% damage during this phase)]
[Talent: None]
[Bond - Felhound (Activated): When there are more than 10 Felhounds on the field at the same time, their charge speed is increased by 30%]
[Description: The vicious dogs in the mist are not frightening individually, but when they gather in numbers, they are enough to tear a bull to shreds in a short time.]
...
"Oh? A new monster appeared today. Judging from the skill description, it seems pretty ferocious."
Before Shen Xing could finish speaking, the evil hounds had already swarmed out and pounced on them.
These monsters not only look ferocious, but they are also extremely crazy.
They'll start fighting at the drop of a hat, like a pack of mad dogs.
But Shen Xing was no pushover either.
"Hellroar, go and kill the three-star Lost Ones inside."
"Bloodhowl, lead men to hold off those evil hounds."
Upon receiving the command, Hellroar, who had been unable to contain himself any longer, suddenly exerted force with both legs.
"boom!"
The powerful burst of force kicked two shallow holes in the ground, making him look like a cannonball.
The burst speed has exceeded 100 meters per second!
"Hmm..."
The lost souls let out hoarse roars, extended their black claws, and swarmed forward.
But before they could get close, a double-edged battle axe swept across like a hurricane.
"Pfft! Pfft pfft pfft!"
Like a hot knife cutting through butter, without the slightest hindrance, four or five Lost Ones were instantly cleaved in two, limbs and black liquid splattering everywhere!
This attack also attracted more hatred towards him, and more than a dozen Lost Ones surrounded him!
Hellscream watched the approaching enemy, remaining calm under pressure, his eyes flashing with a cool yellow light.
"waaaahg!!"
He roared, gripped the axe handle with both hands, and spun around like a top!
"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!"
In an instant, the sounds of sharp blades slicing through the air and flesh being cut echoed.
Hellroar forcefully slaughtered more than a dozen Lost Ones, and without pausing, charged toward the two three-star Lost Ones behind him!
Enemies along the way tried to resist, but he killed them with a single axe stroke, as if he were in an empty field.
On the other side, a dozen or so evil hounds also engaged in direct combat with the orc legion.
As a result, they had only rushed out a few meters before entering the firing range of the arrow tower.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Both arrow towers simultaneously fired a jet-black elemental arrow, striking the two ferocious hounds at the very front.
One of them was even blown off its head, dying a truly tragic death.
But these guys were vicious by nature. Ignoring the death of their companion, they pounced on the nearest orc, and a pack of dogs surrounded him and tore him apart!
"How dare you bite my brother!"
Bloodroar roared and strode forward, bringing his iron axe down with a fierce blow.
The axe blade sliced through the fascia, severed the bones, and cleaved the entire evil hound in two on the spot.
—A heavy blow.
That wasn't all. Bloodhowl pounced forward, pressing down on the head of one of the evil hounds with both hands and exerting force continuously.
With a loud "pop," the dog's head was crushed.
This brutal scene even brought fear to the eyes of the other evil dogs.
Bloodhowl's eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed to have entered a berserk state as he charged straight at the next enemy.
The other orcs also revealed their ferocious side, their stone axes raining down like raindrops.
Behind them, Shen Xing pushed the wheelchair with one hand and raised the crossbow with the other, aiming it at the enemy.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
Three bone arrows, like shooting stars, struck one of the three-star lost souls in succession in the chest.
Taking advantage of the monster's brief moment of stiffness, Hellroar's Steel-Cutting Double-Edged Axe came hurtling down and slammed into its neck!
Another head flew off.
Holy crap, a human-headed dog?
Shen Xing thought to himself that this Hellroar was really clueless, not even knowing to let the lord show off his prowess.
The orc warrior, oblivious to everything, simply gave the lord a goofy smile and continued lunging at his next target.
Soon, with Shen Xing's superb archery skills and Hellroar's gradual assistance, all the Lost Ones were successfully annihilated.
On the other side, the evil hounds were also completely wiped out by the attack of the orc army and two arrow towers.
Shen Xing put away the crossbow and gazed thoughtfully at the corpses on the battlefield.
"Today's monsters are not only more numerous than yesterday, but their levels are also higher."
"It seems that, just as the forums say, the strength of the monsters attacking the village will continue to increase over time."
"Only by becoming stronger at a faster pace can one survive."
What's strange is that in just one day, the number of enemies tripled, and monsters like the evil hounds appeared.
Compared to other newcomers on the forum, his improvement seems rather exaggerated.
"Could it be that this game adjusts the strength of surrounding monsters based on the lord's power?"
Just as Shen Xing was deep in thought, a tall, thin, dark figure suddenly emerged from the other side of the village.
It seemed to have been lurking in the mist, and when everyone's attention was diverted, it suddenly pounced on the campfire in the center of its territory.
Shen Xing's expression remained unchanged. After a day of training, he was no longer the naive and innocent newbie he was yesterday.
The monsters in this world are all cunning and treacherous; many new lords have suffered considerable losses as soon as they enter the Misty Lands.
Lu Xiang was killed in this way.
But for hardcore players who have completed the entire Dark Souls series in one life and started with no gear and no use for the old man's ring, this is nothing new.
He made a fist with his right hand, preparing to release the [Hand of the Void] to intercept the dark figure.
But there was an attack that was even faster!
"call--"
A tungsten-colored double-edged battle axe spun rapidly in the air, carrying an aura of annihilation, and instantly struck the old schemer in the chest.
The monster collapsed limply without making a sound.
After the battle ended, the orcs began to clean up the battlefield on their own initiative.
Shen Xing was recalling the axe blow he had just delivered when an idea suddenly popped into his head.
Hellscream possesses incredible strength, even capable of throwing battleaxes as ranged weapons.
Could we prepare some more bone spears or spare iron axes for it to increase its ranged capabilities?
"Boss, the cleanup is complete!"
A few minutes later, Bloodhowl strode over excitedly, carrying a pile of spoils in his hands.
Shen Xing also snapped out of her thoughts and put everything into her backpack.
[Received: Soul Stones * 26]
[Received: 23 Vinar Silver Coins]
[Received: 14 Broken Souls]
...
"Boss, one of our brothers has been bitten, and he needs to eat meat!" Bloodhowl spoke again.
Before Shen Xing could reply, Hellroar slapped him on the back of the head and scolded, "You bastard! Don't make decisions for the boss!"
"Everything in this territory belongs to the boss; only he can allocate these resources, understand?"
Bloodhowl clutched his head, somewhat resentful, but still nodded: "I...I understand!"
Shen Xing watched the two orcs interact and felt a surge of amusement.
Through continuous evolution, their intelligence has been increasing.
"Go on, take good care of the injured orcs, and give them more meat," Shen Xing waved his hand and said.
"Thank you, boss! You're such a generous leader!"
Bloodhowl was filled with gratitude, and then walked away.
Then, Shen Xing took out an old-fashioned scroll from his backpack.
When unfolded, it has a glittering six-pointed star pattern printed on it.
[Use the Recruitment Scroll to summon a Common ★★ Dire Wolf?]
"Yes."
The six-pointed star pattern in the center of the scroll emitted a dazzling light, then automatically flew into the air and transformed into a huge magic circle.
"Buzz~"
A beam of light surged from the magic array and automatically fell to the ground, with the faint shadows of wild beasts flickering within the light.
"Awoo~!"
With a loud howl, a huge wolf covered in gray fur stepped out with heavy steps.
Its shoulder height is nearly 1.5 meters and its body length exceeds 2.5 meters.
Just standing there gives people an amazing sense of oppression.
At this moment, those dark green pupils looked down at Shen Xing in the wheelchair, their fangs slightly protruding, and yellowish saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths.
Shen Xing looked up, his expression strange, and said, "This guy, does he see me as prey?"
He had seen related information on the forum; in the Misty Lands, those powerful creatures all had their own personalities and arrogance.
If the lord's strength is too weak, it is impossible to make them submit, and they may even suffer a backlash.
That's why items in the game can be brought into the real world, including many powerful unit nests and recruitment scrolls that can be traded in the real world.
However, no new lords have yet been able to contract these troop types in the early stages.
Now, Shen Xing is in a wheelchair and is still a newbie at level one. In the eyes of this dire wolf, he is just a walking cake.
It melts in your mouth and is sweet and delicious.
It let out a low whimper, as if it could already see the human in front of it having its neck bitten off, blood gushing out.
But before the delicious food arrived, there was a fist the size of a clay pot.
The heavy blow from Hellscream slammed down on its head.
