The ten people confirmed that the thirty-year-old man in front of them, who looked like a sickly scholar, was in charge of the reception. The people on Dean Chris' side were convinced. When they saw Lin Xi, they directly asked about the matter. The man who was in charge of comparing the tokens just now was
The man said directly: "After we landed from the giant dragon, we started sneaking into the dense forest two miles away from the border, but we encountered orcs."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Xi was immediately shocked. "What did you say? Orc?"
"Yes, we sneaked for more than a mile, and suddenly a dozen strong dancing orcs jumped out from the side. Then, before we had time to fight, nearly a hundred more orcs suddenly appeared from all directions. We were attacked from both sides.
Three of our companions were captured, so now the captain orders a few of us to protect the people who operate the magic crystal long-range cannon, while the remaining guards are all chasing the orcs."
After hearing this, Lin Xi roughly understood the reason why the whole thing happened, but he became even more confused.
"Although the orcs are powerful, their strength has never been very good. You are all the elites selected from the palace guards. How can you be unable to defeat them? Even if one guard can deal with five orcs, it should be easy."
"At this time, it is no longer the time to be polite. Without solving the questions in his heart, it will be difficult for Lin Xi to find a way to rescue the captured San San.
The person comparing the tokens seemed a little embarrassed by what Lin Xi said. He looked embarrassed and said nonchalantly: "Actually, it's not that we are not strong enough, but that they are all dancing and looking very excited. What's even more terrifying is
Yes, although I have fought against orcs before, I have never seen such a beast.
People, their speed and strength seem to have increased a lot, and they are launching crazy attacks risklessly, which is really scary." Until he said this to Lin Xi now, this person still seemed to be frightened, conspicuously, what happened not long ago
The shock and surprise brought to him by the riots has not been completely eliminated until now.
Lin Xi could tell from the man's expression and demeanor that what happened was probably not as simple as a simple orc robbery.
"Dancing?" Lin Xi said to herself.
"Yes, it's like they're crazy and can't control themselves. I suspect they are being controlled by others." The man expressed their speculation.
"That should be the case." Lin Xi pondered for a while and nodded.
Although the orcs migrated from the west to the north, which was not necessarily a strange thing, Lin Xi's understanding of the orcs made him think that the orcs' behavior was abnormal.
The wisdom of the orcs determines that they cannot find a place to settle down like humans and then rely on growing crops and harvesting food on the land to make a living. What they do every year is to plunder food crazily.
And if the hungry orcs traveled all the way to the north, naturally it was to fill their stomachs. Why did they only capture three people and leave after attacking the team members dressed as hunters?
Moreover, they were caught, not torn apart or thrown to death and carried away on the spot!
If the background and time of the incident were related, Lin Xi could be sure that this was someone with ulterior motives, using the orcs as a cover to achieve their ulterior motives.
However, transporting magic crystal long-range cannons is an extremely secretive matter. Apart from His Majesty, Senior Chris and a few other people, he was the only one who knew about it. How did the person who learned the news and intercepted him halfway through
How did you learn this top-secret news?
Who is this person?
Perhaps only by finding the orcs and finding out the people behind them through the orcs can we get the answer.
Lin Xi made a decision quickly.
"It's getting late. The people responsible for assembling the cannon are protected by guards. Stay put and protect yourself. My brother and I will catch up now." Lin Xi said to the person who just spoke.
"However, it's difficult to search because it's dark. Besides, it's been so long since it happened. It might be difficult to find traces of the orcs." The man was a little confused.
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, let's hurry up and do it." Lin Xi didn't want to say more and said simply.
In fact, this man is also an impatient person, and he usually speaks and does things easily. However, the matter he encountered today was too important and strange, which made him feel a little confused. When he heard Lin Xi say this, he had no idea about Lin Xi's identity.
Suspicious, he nodded immediately.
"You guys are responsible for protecting them, and everything is based on protecting them and yourself. Don't show up rashly, don't light fires, and don't do anything with monsters such as monsters unless it's absolutely necessary. Do you understand?"
After that, without waiting for these people to reply, the man followed Lin Xi, who had already walked several meters away, and started to give directions.
"What do you call brothers?" Lin Xi asked with a slight smile.
"My name is Shi Gang."
Then, Lin Xi also introduced himself briefly, and then said: "Brother Shi, have you got the direction correct?" The reason why Lin Xi asked this was because in the dense forest with dark sky, once the direction was wrong, it would be difficult to find someone.
You're sure to take a dip in the soup.
"Brother Linxi, I checked it carefully several times, and there is absolutely nothing wrong. However, now we can only see less than ten meters away in the dense forest. How can we pursue the orcs? Although there are hundreds of them,
The jungle is so big, they only need to change the direction, and it will be difficult for us to find them. Moreover, I am afraid that it will also be difficult to find our companions who set out before."
Lin Xi nodded, knowing that what Shi Gang said was right. If the orc attack was really controlled by someone behind the scenes, then based on this person's strategy, he would definitely change the direction after succeeding and get rid of the pursuit.
As long as three of them and the space rings they carry are obtained, it means that the complete magic crystal long-range cannon will never be assembled, and attacking the church can only be a flower in the mirror.
However, since Lin Xi was so confident in letting Shi Gang go alone, he must have had his own plan.
"noob."
Lin Xi took out the broken knife from his waist and called out clearly.
"Brother Lin Xi, what are you doing?" Shi Gang immediately asked out of curiosity.
At this moment, there was a sudden vibration like a wave of water around the broken knife. At the same time, accompanied by a crisp "beep" sound, a fat little guy who was all white and looked like a little penguin ran out with joy and dived headlong into the knife.
into Lin Xi's arms.
Shi Gang opened his mouth wide and looked stunned, but he couldn't say even a single word.
Because this was so shocking that it even exceeded his cognition. How a cute and lively bird could come out of a broken knife was really unbelievable. Not only was the bird strange, but the broken knife was also mysterious!
"Transform, little guy. We are going to fly into the sky and find people in the dense forest." Lin Xi then said to Xiaobai who was having fun.
After hearing this, Xiaobai, who was constantly making noise, immediately jumped out of his arms. Regardless of Shi Gang's surprise, he quickly completed the transformation, and a large white bird with wings spread of two and a half meters suddenly appeared.
