Chapter 321 "Hurry!" (orc language)
The framework of the mage group has already considered situations in various extreme environments.
So at this moment, even if they are inside the hot and closed lava, everyone in the library feels no different from usual.
After leading everyone along the direction of perception for a while.
Brand felt that the source of the earth element was very close to them!
At this time, the senior students also seemed to notice something.
Someone's eyes lit up and he said,
"There does seem to be a special aura around."
Under the influence of the special magma around them, the range that everyone can perceive is extremely limited.
Under such restrictions, some people still sense the anomaly, which means that they are very close to the target!
In fact, the target is nearby!
Soon, Brand led everyone to stop their progress.
The magical aura began to flicker on everyone and quickly connected together.
The next moment, a sudden force slowly pushed away the surrounding lava, revealing the rocky ground covered by the lava. Although it was burned red, it still remained solid.
And rooted on it, a small tree about half a person tall with golden starlight and bright golden leaves!
Seeing this small tree, everyone who knew its identity, including Brand, unconsciously opened their eyes!
...
The outer area of the forest surrounding the Furnace Volcano.
The ground began to shake slightly.
It wasn't someone fighting or a volcano erupting.
This is the marching momentum of the Imperial Legion!
When nearly 20,000 cavalrymen uniformly dressed in full body armor and with horses armed to the teeth charged forward.
The birds and animals in the forest began to move away quickly!
At the same time, at the legion camp next to Furnace Town, the soldiers belonging to the Empire's Fourth and Eighth Cavalry Legions had relaxed smiles on their faces.
The familiar secret skills of the legion have enveloped them, which means that their legion commander has arrived nearby with his army!
Not long after, the ground began to shake slightly.
As members of the Cavalry Corps, they naturally understood the origin of this shock.
Next to the station, the adventurers and merchants in Furnace Town also looked in the direction of the source of the vibration with expressions of surprise.
I saw densely packed cavalry wrapped in shiny silver-white armor, rushing in quickly from the outer periphery of the distant forest from far to near!
——When they wander around the northern border, they will naturally not fail to recognize the empire's standard cavalry regiment.
Looking at such a large number of cavalry regiments, they quickly realized that something big might be going to happen here!
——No one told them that there were big orcs sneaking into the borders of the empire, or even sneaking into the furnace volcano!
Of course, although there is no specific information, it does not prevent them from packing their things and preparing to stay away from here.
——Such a large number of imperial legions came here specifically to deal with enemies of similar levels?
They don't want to get involved in a battle of that level.
At this time, although the cavalry were still marching, the commanders of the two legions had already arrived at the gate of the joint legion station next to Furnace Town.
Seeing the two legion commanders in uniform and riding horses in front of them, the captains waiting at the gate solemnly performed a military salute.
The two army commanders didn't waste any time and asked directly about the current situation.
Then, a captain immediately stepped forward and informed them of various situations in simple language.
This includes the fact that there are big orcs in the Furnace Volcano, Brand took the library members to investigate, and the news that Williams later brought.
After hearing these things, the expressions of the two legion commanders began to look serious.
One of them asked aloud: "Where is Mr. Williams now?"
...
At this time, in the medical room.
Williams, who had bandages in various places on his body, was now conscious.
Although the wounds on his body looked extremely serious, under the influence of that special golden fighting spirit, he had actually recovered a lot.
The remaining injuries, with the physical fitness of an official knight, will be healed in a short time.
The special golden fighting spirit before was actually a trump card prepared by Williams' teacher to deal with the great knight.
In the dangerous northern border, I really don’t dare to wander alone without some cards.
Like this time, if it weren't for such a trump card, Williams would probably have become Momo.
He originally thought that
such a trump card to deal with the big knights should be no problem when used against the big orcs.
As a result, when he charged towards the big orc who "didn't know whether to live or die" with great momentum, he was beaten to death with a few backhand fists.
When he recalled this, Williams decided that he must talk to the teacher about this trump card issue next time.
Even if the big orcs are indeed much stronger than the "ordinary big knights" of the kingdoms and principalities, this is a bit too exaggerated!
Just as Williams was lying on the bed thinking wildly, the two commanders of the cavalry corps and the two captains under their command walked into the room.
Looking at Williams who was "seriously injured" lying on the bed, the solemn expressions of the two regiment commanders softened a bit:
Although Mr. Brand's information was more timely, this Williams had also put in his efforts!
...
Under the Furnace Volcano, the location of the big orc.
It was as if he felt something abnormal.
A stream of bright red aura suddenly spread from his body towards the surroundings.
At the same time, the entire cave suddenly began to shake!
Not just the cave, but outside the cave, the entire furnace volcano is shaking!
The magma pool in front of me also started churning endlessly!
At this time, the big orc with a bright red aura lingering all over his body raised his eyebrows unconsciously.
Because he was underground, he felt it clearly:
this vibration originated from the depths of the Furnace Volcano, a place deeper than the current cave.
Therefore, this should be a natural activity of the Furnace Volcano!
If he hadn't been here to suppress it, I'm afraid the magma pool in front of me would not have been churning endlessly, but would have spewed up wildly in the first place!
There are various signs that
the Furnace Volcano, which has been dormant for decades, is about to erupt again!
——Is it because of the brief battle with the weak human from before?
After coming to the conclusion that the volcano erupted, the big orc couldn't help but have this thought flashing through his heart.
But in the next moment, he put aside these useless thoughts.
——It’s just magma, not enough to affect their plan!
Looking at the brightly shining giant egg in the "lair" in front of him, the big orc's mouth showed a smile unconsciously!
"Hurry!" (orc language)
...
This is the joint legion station.
After briefly explaining their identities, the two legion commanders began to ask Williams if he could take them to find the big orc beneath the Furnace Volcano.
Williams originally wanted to hesitate symbolically, indicating that he was seriously injured and wanted to hear the "price" first.
However, the two legion commanders, who often dealt with the nobles and had a better understanding of the nobles' thoughts, directly stated the price:
"The empire will reward everyone who contributed to this incident with meritorious service! The specific meritorious service will be based on the number of contributions made." The actual contributions will be distributed."
After hearing this, Williams immediately got up from the hospital bed with "difficulty" and immediately expressed his willingness to "drag his seriously injured body" to lead the way for the two of them.
Because Williams had agreed, the two army commanders did not hesitate any longer and immediately led Williams towards the direction of the lava volcano.
Sensing the movements of their legion commander, the two cavalry legions under his command also immediately mounted their horses and headed towards the direction of the furnace volcano.
Williams felt very comfortable being carried away by the two legion commanders using the power of the great knights.
However, he thought back to the big orc who severely injured him in a few moments, and also thought that the two legion commanders in front of him were similar to him, "parallel import knights" who used foreign objects to increase their strength.
Williams felt uneasy again.
After hesitating for a while, he still asked aloud:
"The big orc underground seems to be much stronger than the ordinary human knights. Are you sure?"
After hearing this, a legion commander responded with a serious face:
" Don't worry, we are all people who have fought against the big orcs.
And this time there are three legions coming from Furnace Castle. In addition to our two cavalry legions, there is also an infantry legion of 20,000 people behind.
In terms of specific strength, with the support of the legion's secret skills, the infantry legion at the back is the strongest, and the strength of our two cavalry legions is much different. But even so, there is still no problem in holding back a big orc
. Yes.
As long as we hold him back until the Sixth Infantry Regiment arrives behind us, then we will have a chance to keep him!
Your share of the merits will definitely be indispensable by then!"
That's all he said. On board, Williams quickly suppressed his inner uneasiness.
At this moment, the ground shook suddenly.
Although the shock was not strong, the expressions of the two legion commanders were condensed.
One of them said:
"There are no traces of battle within the sensing range. It shouldn't be Mr. Brand."
"It should be a volcanic eruption?"
Thinking of this possibility, the two army commanders felt a little heavy.
——The vast majority of the people in their legions are unable to withstand such natural disasters!
This means that after the volcano erupts, their legions cannot get too close.
And one problem is that if they want to maintain the secret skills of the legion, they can't stay too far away from the legion!
After thinking for a moment, a legion commander said:
"Seize the time and fight quickly, or find a way to pull the big orcs out to fight."
After making such a decision, the two wanted to speed up.
But at the next moment, the two stopped in unison.
In Williams' senses.
He only felt that the force that had been lingering around him and carrying him forward suddenly threw him in the direction behind him.
Although it hit the ground hard and the wounds on his body that had just healed began to burst and bleed again, Williams had no intention of complaining.
——In the field of vision, two giant-like tauren wearing giant heavy armor suddenly appeared, holding huge battle axes, and charged towards the two thousand captains!
