Chapter 273 Borrowing Things(2/4)
"You have to ask the bosses about this kind of thing. I'm just an insignificant little guy."
Feide obviously didn't want to talk about this kind of thing involving the shadow thief's secrets, so he pretended to be innocent.
But how could such a little trick be hidden from a psychic who possesses powerful thinking and perception abilities?
Isadora captured the secret hidden in her mind in an instant, and immediately spoke to Zuo Si through telepathy: "The Shadow Thieves Guild has reached an agreement with Faircrag, intending to find the treasure buried by Strohan III and share it equally. But.
Later, for unknown reasons, the red dragon suddenly turned its back and killed all the members of the treasure hunting team."
"As expected. No wonder the Shadow Thief would give out the information about Fairkrag. It turns out he wanted to use my hand to get rid of him."
Zuo Si had undoubtedly been mentally prepared for Ellen Linville's use of him, and even guessed the motive.
Due to the lack of high-end combat power, shadow thieves can bully and intimidate civilians and merchants, but they will be very powerless when facing creatures like giant dragons.
I would like to ask how a human assassin uses a dagger no more than thirty centimeters long to launch a fatal sneak attack on a behemoth that stands more than six, seven or even ten meters tall?
Not to mention the amazing defensive power of the dragon scales, even if it is really penetrated, thirty centimeters is just a skin injury to the giant dragon, and it is impossible to hurt the internal organs wrapped inside.
So unless there are some special weapons against dragon creatures, the most effective way to deal with creatures like dragons is still magic.
After simply blessing a few low-level divine spells and arcana at the door, a group of four people pretended to be novice adventurers and carefully walked into the invisible underground world.
After passing through the long and narrow passage, they immediately discovered more than twenty orcs who had already set up pocket formations.
These guys took advantage of the terrain to encircle the city in a semi-arc, just surrounding the passage exit.
No nonsense!
At the order of the orc leader, dense arrows immediately flew over like raindrops.
"Damn! I knew it would be like this."
Fede cursed in a low voice, and immediately entered the stealth state, trying to sneak up against the wall and kill the orc archer from behind.
But before she could take any actual action, she saw Zuo Si, wearing scale armor, rushing forward with a shield in one hand and a mace in the other.
Due to the speed, one of the orcs had no time to react before his head was smashed with a bang.
Under the blessing of indescribable terrifying power, the iron helmet worn by this unlucky guy was smashed into a deep pit the size of a fist, and his brains and a blown eyeball flowed out from inside.
That scene...
It is simply an unforgettable experience for the Demon Elf Assassin.
She has always believed that Zuo Si's fighting style is to hide behind and gracefully release various spells and divine spells, while summoning alien creatures to drown the opponent.
But now, Feide suddenly realized that he was wrong, and how wrong he was.
The performance of these few seconds alone is enough to prove that this divine chosen one not only has melee capabilities, but also moves in a brutal style, all brute force without any skills.
Counting the blessing of divine magic, Zuo Si, who currently has 35 points of strength attributes and 37 points of physical attributes, can definitely be regarded as a humanoid tyrannosaurus.
Not to mention mere orcs, even their master, the red dragon Felkrag, would be hard-pressed to take advantage of the collision of pure power.
Therefore, even though there was no skill at all during the attack, it was just a simple matter of picking up the mace and slamming it down, but it still caused astonishing casualties to the enemy in a very short period of time.
Oh, no, only dead but no injuries.
Wherever the mace passes, the brain will be broken or the bones and tendons will be broken, and then the head will be blown off.
Moreover, Isadora was very considerate and blessed him with three levels of [Acceleration], so that in just a few seconds, he killed the orc team ambushing at the door.
Many orcs dropped their weapons and ran away.
You must know that the orcs in Faerûn have no loyalty and integrity at all. They basically loyal to whoever has the biggest fist.
Many evil spellcasters and cities recruit orcs in large numbers as cannon fodder and train them.
Once they find that the situation is overwhelmingly unfavorable to them, they will immediately turn around and run away without hesitation.
"Damn it! Don't retreat! Don't retreat!"
The orc leader, who was wearing full plate armor, roared angrily and even chopped off the head of a deserter with his own hands.
But unfortunately, it did not prevent the collapse at all.
In the blink of an eye, the remaining seven or eight archers threw away their weapons and rushed into the deeper cave behind.
When he came back to his senses, he found that Zuo Si was already standing in front of him, and raised the mace in his hand that was stained red with brains in a provocative gesture.
Instantly!
The orc leader was angered.
Unlike the losers under his command, he was very confident in his own strength, so he took the lead in attacking with his giant axe.
Bang!
With a deafening sound, the ax hit the shield hard, making a sonic boom-like roar.
Just when he was fully expecting to see the opponent being knocked away by his amazing brute force, he found that his opponent was still standing firmly on the spot, and was only pushed back two steps by the huge impact.
"This...how is this possible!"
The orc leader was stunned and could hardly believe what he saw.
Because in his eyes, Zuo Si was neither strong nor exaggeratedly muscular, and he didn't look like he was an adult at all. How could he possibly surpass him in terms of strength?
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
Zuo Si had no intention of explaining at all. He just waved the mace and began to launch blows like a storm.
Since the two-handed giant ax requires a certain amount of space to exert its full power, the orc leader immediately fell into the dilemma of being beaten and unable to fight back after being pressed against him.
Coupled with the effect of the acceleration spell, he couldn't distance himself at all, and he couldn't push the opponent away with brute force. He could only bear the severe pain caused by the mace hitting the armor again and again.
You must know that the biggest difference between blunt weapons and sharp weapons is that the impact force can be directly transmitted to the body through armor, causing various bruises.
Therefore, even if the full-body plate armor is more effective in resisting the impact of blunt objects than other types of armor, after being hit more than a dozen times, the orc leader still spurted out a large amount of dark red blood from his mouth and nose, and knelt on one knee on the ground violently.
Breathe.

At this moment, there was no longer any confidence in his eyes, replaced by fear and despair.
Just when he was about to open his mouth to beg for mercy, he suddenly saw a huge black shadow coming straight towards his unprotected face.
Then there was a sharp pain, and then his eyes went black and he lost consciousness.
Looking at the body that fell in front of him with its brain shattered, Zuo Si once again shook off the blood on his weapon and said with a smile: "It seems that as long as I simply add a few strengthening spells, I won't be as good as I imagined in close combat.
So bad. At least it shouldn’t be a problem to deal with such low-level warriors.”
"Not only is it not bad, it is so powerful that it makes people feel scared. What is your abnormal and terrifying power? Is it some kind of extra power given to the chosen ones by a god?"
Feide slowly walked out of the shadows, with a look of awe in his eyes.
An orc warrior wearing plate armor would have a headache even for an elite assassin like her from the Shadow Thieves Guild.
Because the plate armor will cover most of the vital points, sneak attacks and backstabs are often missed accidentally.
An assassin who accidentally exposes himself to the enemy often means death.
Their professional characteristics determine that there is no way to confront strong warriors head-on, and they can only try to escape.
"That's right. But I haven't received any weapons or combat training like other priests, so I basically have no power to fight back when I meet a real master." Zuo Si shrugged nonchalantly.
Just when Fede wanted to continue questioning, the werewolf girl suddenly issued a warning: "Master, be careful, I smell the smell of the hobgoblin."
The words have not yet been spoken!
A faint stench suddenly covered up the smell of blood and came from the end of the passage.
Any experienced adventurer who smells this stench will realize that there must be a hobgoblin nearby.
Of course, this is not to say that hobgoblins are dirty and unhygienic, but the function of their unique sweat glands.
Obviously, the orc archers who had just escaped had passed the news of the collapse of the first line of defense to the rear, so these hobgoblins rushed over to see what was going on.
As the stench became stronger and stronger, seven or eight heavily armed hobgoblins appeared within the sight of the four people.
"Kill all these intruders!"
A hobgoblin roared like a roar from his throat.
Zuo Si had learned some goblin language when he had nothing to do, so when he heard this sentence, he immediately chose to strike first and rushed forward with the intention of repeating the same trick.
But the hobgoblins are obviously much more difficult to deal with than the orcs.
The four shield holders immediately rushed to the front to form a shield wall for defense, while the priest behind them completed two divine spells in a very short period of time.
【Blessing Technique】!
【Human Body Holding Technique】!
The function of the former is to provide beneficial blessings for yourself and your allies, while the latter is to limit the actions of the enemy.
If it were a low-level adventurer, he would probably be hit by such a sudden spell attack in minutes, and then be easily slaughtered due to the immobilization effect.
Unfortunately, for Zuo Si, who has extremely high magic resistance and immunity, this low-level magic has long been of no use.
He first pretended to be affected by the immobilization spell and stood there, waiting for the two hobgoblins to rush up and try to hit him. Then he suddenly burst out and opened their heads one by one.
To be continued...
