Chapter 85 (1/2)
Why are ogres here?!
The knights were either frightened or surprised to see the monster four meters high rushing out of the forest. The sudden situation made them stand in place one by one, so shocked that they couldn't even say a word.
”Why are you still standing there, protecting the count!” Sir Aaron, who woke up first, immediately roared at the people around him, and his heavy hands and big sword were raised again: ”spread out, do you want to be eaten by the ogre
The knights who got the order withdrew from their original positions and kept a group formation of three to five people moving around. One of them rushed directly to Lu Wen, who was still lying on the ground, picked him up and retreated without delay.
Worthy of Duke Fred's guard knights, they cooperate tacitly and respond quickly. They can remain calm and obey orders even in panic, which is not comparable to some thugs.
The ogre who roared and walked was not fast, but it was just an illusion in sight - the four meter height, at least one person's distance at each step, and the shaking ground was knocking everyone's heart.
Sir Aaron in heavy armor held up his sword and stood alone in front of the ogre. His palms were full of sweat. He breathed steadily to keep himself as calm as possible.
Anyone who suddenly sees a four meter tall monster and can push down trees and throw horses like stones can't be indifferent.
”Relax, it's just an ogre.”
”What are you doing here? Go back and protect the count!” Sir Aaron guessed who it was when he heard the voice: ”it's not now to ask for death, wait until we decide the outcome!”
”I just think you may need a little help. After all, I'm a wizard.” the black haired wizard didn't forget to salute Aaron: ”I'd better leave this monster to professionals.”
”Yes.” Aaron agreed without hesitation: ”do you have any plans?”
He is neither a stubborn fool nor a madman crazy about personal honor. Being the captain of Reuven's guard proves that in addition to loyalty, he is more rational than other knights and knows how to judge the situation.
”I'll attract the big man's attention. You can take the opportunity to move behind it.” looking at the approaching ogre, Loren arranged while calculating the distance between the two sides: ”there is a blind area right behind it. It's absolutely invisible.”
”I know it sounds dangerous, but just cut off its leg joints and make the big man fall and can't get up - the ogre lying on the ground is a fat pig to be slaughtered!”
The plan sounds feasible, but Aaron is still worried: ”if you don't let me attract its attention, you should have a better chance of success!”
”I'd take a few minutes to explain why, but we don't have time.” Lauren smiled and raised three fingers of his right hand: ”get ready, three, two, one!”
”Boom --!”
The sole of the ogre's foot fell from the sky and left a huge pit in the open space with the roar. With only half a step to go, you can step two people into meat patties.
After confirming that Sir Aaron was still alive, Loren, who avoided in time, snapped his fingers without hesitation, and the ”firefly curse” flying from the palm exploded dazzling fireworks in front of the ogre.
The ogre who was stabbed into his eyes by the strong light gave a painful cry, but soon recovered his sight, roared angrily at Loren, and the huge figure almost completely blocked him below.
Sure enough... Lauren, who was a little sorry, easily avoided the arm waved by the ogre. Because it is daytime, the effect of firefly curse is also reduced a lot, and the effect is obvious in dark places.
What I can do now is just to attract the big man's attention as much as possible - even if the thick fat is hurt, it won't help. The only kindling agent and a few low-level magic spells on hand can't do much damage at all.
Even the ”bright silver” is not long enough to pierce the ogre's skin. If it can't hit the joints and fatal position, it's just better than nothing.
The aesthetic tumbling escaped the trampling of the ogre. Suddenly, Loren thought of a guy named Asriel in his mind. Although he was only a young vampire, but
