“No need to guess, that giant iron shield can at least counteract one armor piercing arrow. The orcs know this; that’s why they had organized the bearmans at the front to protect them!”k3305 lowered his voice and interrupted.
“Bastards, so this crossbow is hopeless against them?” K3308 said in a fury.
Even with the slower bearmans in the front line shouldn’t take long to reach them with the speed of orcs. With this distance, Abel could probably only allow shoot 2 arrows. Both the wizards and the orcs knew this full well.
A cold smirk emerged from Abel’s mouth. Maybe he would be hopeless against this battle formation in the past, but now, the way he saw the world was totally different from everyone.
A large amount of data began to update in real time, estimating the distance between the orcs and finding a loophole within their formation.
“K3516, help me break their shields!” Head mander Bodley yelled as he dashed forward with his war horse.
This act was very dangerous for him, even with the newest magic shield and sword. He was about to face 5 bearmans. His chance of survival would drop dramatically as soon as he entered the enemies’ formation.
“My honor is my life!” He unleashed a charge 50 meters from the orcs. As he yelled, his war horse began to speed up and turned to shadow flying towards the bearman’s shield.
Head mander Bodley had blocked the sight of both the human and the orcs. All the orcs at that moment were squeezing behind 300 giant shields, so their sight was extremely narrow.
At that moment no one would expect Abel to shoot, because there would be a big chance his arrow would land on Head mander Bodley if he did.
However, Abel did the unexpected. He tilted the crossbow in a slight angle and gently jerked the crossbow the moment he pulled the trigger.
Everyone on the rock was in disbelief. The armor piercing arrow flew out in a swirl passing Head mander Bodley and the first row of bearmans.
It was like the armor piercing arrow had grown wings. It sped towards the second row of bearmans and penetrated one of their armpits. Afterward, it continued to fly towards the 100 orcs.
At that moment their formation was extremely tight, and this arrow had almost opened up a road of blood among those orcs behind their shields. A bearman dropped dead, and 5 other wolf riders behind it were also penetrated by the arrow in varying degrees.
The huge armor piercing arrow could take a big chunk of meat out of you even if it just brushed along your body. The bearmans heart had been penetrated; it would be a miracle if it could survive.
2 of those 5 wolf riders were also dead in an instant, and the others had a huge hole opened up in their bodies. Even with the strength of an orc, they might not be able to live for long if they weren’t treated immediately. But still, who would have time to stop when facing a crossbow.
After paying a big price, the orcs realized their enemy had unleashed another armor piercing arrow. They still had some time before their next strike, so it was the perfect time to accelerate.
However, a head mander was rushing right at them. If their bearman put away their shields, they would be open for attack.
As the 100 hesitated, Head mander Bodley already arrived in front of the bearman’s Shield. He lifted up his knight sword, and viciously struck down.
“Bang!” Even Abel could hear the bang from a few hundred meters.
Head mander Bodley took 3 steps back with his war horse. At that moment, the legs of his war horse were shaking. If it was not supported by bat qi, maybe the war horse had already bee disabled.
Although the bearman’s giant shields had successfully transferred the force of the impact to the ground, the grey bears below were knocked back for a few steps.
A Head mander’s big sword could double his power. On top of the charging momentum, all of his power was unleashed in that strike.
In the past, he would definitely not do this since it would break his weapon, but now that he knew that his sword was made out of condensed iron, so he no longer cared.
He gazed towards that bearman he just struck. There was a deep crack on its shield.
The other bearman began to wave their giant battle axes towards head mander Bodley. The massive sweeping sound it made almost shook the entire atmosphere of the place.
Head mander Bodley did not retreat. Knights were prideful. Although there were a lot of formal techniques, none of them were for retreating–e
Joey, who was standing next to Abel at the time, suddenly yelled, “A curve shot!”
A curve shot was an extremely advanced archery technique. Only a small amount of people had mastered them. Joey had only ever seen a godly archer do a shot like this in Miracle City once in his life.
On top of that, this was a crossbow. How could this wizard have the confidence to unleash a curve shot with a crossbow? Head mander Bodley was right at the front. He could directly kill him if he had made a mistake.
Although k3305 and k3308 didn’t know what was a curve shot, they knew it was a special technique. All Abel did was gently jerked the crossbow before pulling the trigger, but they knew it was not that easy. Joey wouldn’t be so amazed for no reason.
Abel didn’t care about their reaction as he cranked on the crossbow again. Another armor piercing arrow was set, ready to shoot.
Of course, Head mander Markham would not let head mander Bodley fight alone, so he too also dashed forward and unleashed a charge when he was 50 meters from the orcs.
The ice magic sword in his hand brushed along the 2 metal shields in front of the orcs with a wave of chill. At the same time, the battle ax of a bearman had struck upon the magic shield of head mander Bodley.
A flash of white light appeared on the magic shield, and a chunk of force was absorbed. But still, most of the force was transferred to the body of head mander Bodley through the shield. Luckily he was already in a defensive position. As long as the shield didn’t break, nothing under twice his force could knock him down.
Although Head mander Markham had unleashed a charge, he did not directly attack. Instead, he continued to use the chill force to brush against the bearman’s shield. They couldn’t underestimate this small technique since his ice attributed bat qi had a powerful slow down effect. It could delay the movement of the bearman for at least 2 seconds, and those bearmans were already slow in the first place.
By this point, the orcs were faced with a huge dilemma. If they kept attacking, they might be able to gang that head mander to death, but they would be exposing their entire team to the crossbow if they did so.
“Break out, attack!” A wolf rider captain yelled. Just when Head mander Bodley was looking for that wolf rider captain who made the mand, the entire team of orcs scattered like they did not care about the crossbow at all.
It was at that moment, another arrow speeded through the sky, avoided the 2 Head manders, and directly penetrated the wolf riders. 3 wolf riders dropped dead.
This shot speeded up wolf riders as they kept scattering. Their target was that big rock, and those wizards on that big rock.
By that point they no longer care about those 2 Head manders, they had their slower bearmen to hold them down. This was the best decision the wolves could make.
At that moment, those wolf riders’ directors had decided that they needed to kill those humans by all means necessary. War glory no longer mattered, they only had one target, and it was that giant crossbow on the rock. As long as they could get that crossbow, the orc empire could break it apart for research and strengthen their own crossbows.
