Chapter 16: Don't Make a Fuss
William took the warriors into the forest. Relying on the advantage of the speed that Elves have in the forest, they arrived at the outskirts of the Orc Warriors' gathering in an hour.
Several Elfin Rangers walked over carefully and reported, "My Lord, the number of Orc Warriors has increased by another 100, and they are still transporting various weapons and equipment. It seems as though they intend to start a war with us!"
"600 of them? How many patrol soldiers do they have on the outside?" William rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"Quite a few, there are ten Orc teams patrolling, 50 of them in all!"
Lautner had never been worried about the strength of his guys. If he wanted to kill someone in the forest, he could wipe out this group of Orcs himself, provided that they did not run. Otherwise, it would be very troublesome and would waste time.
And William had the same thoughts!
[Mission: Crisis near the territory]
[Stage 2: It's obvious that there is an Orc tribe that intends to compete with you for the iron ore mines. And they even want to destroy your town. Finish them off]
[Mission Completion: 0%~100%]
[Reward: 10000~50000 experience]
[Reward: Unknown]
[Reward: Loyalty and favorability of subordinates]
William narrowed his eyes. A second mission, huh. As expected, the reward of the Lord's mission began to concern the loyalty of his warriors.
According to the description of the mission, it was a very difficult thing for many lords as they could send their troops to kill the enemy or kill them with their own abilities.
Especially a Lord that was level 10.
But don't forget.
He was Legendary!
No matter how weak he was as a Legendary Boss, he was still Legendary!
William turned his gaze to an Elf Ranger captain. "Lend me your bow, arrows, and weapons!"
"Yes, my Lord!" The Elf Ranger captain was a little doubtful but was not afraid that the Lord would covet his weapons.
With a bloodline potential in the lead, the Elf Ranger captain was level 33 and his equipment was not bad.
A long blue bow, with an attack power of 130-180 points.
A blue one-handed sword, 120-160 points.
As for added attribute, it was only a little and was not worth mentioning.
As long as it was primary equipment and its attributes were up to standard, it could be worn.
After all, the attributes of a Legendary Boss were high, and he had a lot of health points, so he could be willful...
The level of the weapon and equipment in this game did not need to be limited, and only with the position level and attributes, could other professions pick it up and use this kind of equipment.
As long as you were willing, mages could also wear armor, but some special effects might not work.
"William, as the Lord, you can shoot arrows from the side. You don't have to go to the battlefield in person!" Lautner was slightly worried.
But other than an Epic level inner armor, the Legendary Boss, whose equipment was at such a low level, shook his head. "No, the Lord should take the lead. Noch, you surround the gathering point with the others. I'll kill them myself. Don't let anyone of them escape!"
"My Lord, just let us handle those Orcs!" The other Elfin Warriors refused. After all, this concerned life and death.
Although they could see that the Lord had successfully trained his battle energy, he was still young and this behavior was still very inappropriate. They wanted to return to the Elven Kingdom, but their hearts did not allow them to deceive the Lord...
"Obey my orders. Uncle Lautner will protect me, the rest of you just surround those Orcs!" William looked at Lautner.
Lautner could only nod helplessly. "Fine, but if there are enemies who threaten your life, the bow and arrow in my hand are not to be trifled with!"
"It'll be fine if there's meat to eat. But take more arrows for me. If you see that I'm out of arrows, throw the quiver to me!" The corner of William's lips lifted up slightly and he strode nimbly to the gathering place of the Orcs.
At the same time, five Elf Mages looked at one another and gave him all kinds of buffs.
Lightness.
Spiritual arts.
Increased strength.
Increased defense and so on. Most buffs could last for about ten minutes and the effect was not that obvious. But it was better than nothing.
The other Elves silently spread out and surrounded the group of Orcs.
In the forest...
Never fight with Elves!
Otherwise, with the procrastinating nature of Humans, knowing that the number of Elves was increasing again, they would view it as a threat. They dared not enter the forest rashly because they knew that in the primitive forest, the combat methods of the Elves were invincible, and it was impossible to defend against them!
A figure was leaping in the bush, silent, like an agile leopard.
Even if his speed was fast and he jumped very high, it would be difficult to create any movement.
Every time he walked, he could easily avoid the area of grass that would make noise. He was like a powerful Elf Hunter, moving around in the forest but would never expose himself.
Lautner saw all this and he was a little suspicious...
Could it be?
In the past, had everything he had done been a pretense, even falling from a tree?
And why only fully reveal his true ability when he became the Lord?
.........
After observing from the tree, William gradually approached an Orc patrol team.
The rank of these five Orcs had already appeared in front of him.
Three were level 20, two were level 15. There were no elites and they were all ordinary Orc Warriors.
"Then, it's easy!" William narrowed his eyes, taking out three arrows from the quiver with his left hand.
Taking an arrow with his right hand and drawing it back on the bow, he shot it out with full battle energy!
Whiz.
A stream of light shot through the dark forest. The Orc walking at the end fell to the ground with no reaction.
Headshot, fatal weakness. The moment the arrow penetrated the head, the fatal injury appeared.
The Orc Warrior, who had not got much blood potential, died straight away.
400 experience acquired.
The four Orcs in front heard the noise and as they were about to turn back, William took one of the three arrows from his left hand, drew it back on the bow and shot it out...
In just two seconds.
The three Orc Warriors were killed by his headshots.
But the moment the remaining two Orcs took out their weapons and were about to shout...
A figure came down from the sky. William, in mid-air, had drawn his bow and an arrow shot out.
The Orc who had its mouth opened wide, felt pain and, holding on to its throat, it fell to the ground.
As for the other dumbfounded Orc, before he could react, William, who was still in mid-air, drew out a sword from his waist and landed on the ground, dealing out a blow!
Swish.
William pulled his sword from the Orc's head as green blood trickled down. He did not stop and jumped up the tree while continuing to look for other patrol teams!
The seemingly complex combat operation was actually completed in less than three seconds.
Lautner could not help feeling shocked when he saw this scene. The five Orcs had not even shouted out a word and were so easily defeated by the Lord...
"And he didn't even use any battle energy skill!" Lautner sighed. Especially the difficulty of shooting while jumping was very high. Even he himself had practiced for a long time before he had mastered it completely.
He did not expect that the Lord had hidden this.
Lautner swallowed. "How... many people has he lied to in the City of Night?"
