Chapter 1493 1333: Alex's Strategy
At this moment, they spotted a dark shadow leaping down from the fort wall. Then, a dazzling ray erupted and enveloped the Orcs like wild rainstorms.
Alex had struck!
He leaped down from the fort wall and dashed toward the sea of Orcs in a dark shadow. The Half-Demons gazed in awe and even though they had been through training sessions with Alex, they had never fought alongside him. Therefore, they weren't aware of this young overlord's strength. They exclaimed in astonishment as he faced the 300 Orc riders alone. On the other hand, the group of mercenaries who had fought shoulder-to-shoulder with Alex looked on calmly.
They didn't fluster like the Half-Demons. Instead, they quickly hopped on to their preparations to coordinate with Alex in his attack.
The Orc riders bellowed fiercely. Not only did they fail to capture any Humans after being led about by Johnson's Cavalrymen like fools, but they also fell into the Humans' trap, where the fort wall collapsed and buried 200 of their companions. As soon as they witnessed a fearless human dashing toward them, they howled fiercely and challenged him. The skinny, fragile human wasn't worth a mention to them at all. They wanted to capture him, break his hands and legs, and leave him dying in endless pain. This was the only way to vent their frustrations!
"Human! Attack!"
A murderous glint flashed in Gholug's eyes. He stretched his hand out to push the Human down. But Alex lifted his head and swept a glance at him.
A cold, shimmering light flashed.
The earth-shattering, vast sky of stars dazzled and the razor-sharp sword aura whizzed toward the defenseless Gholug.
The flickering radiance ripped through his massive body without any resistance. Fresh blood splashed and the impact propelled him into the air. Then, he crashed lifelessly on the ground.
At the same time, Alex moved forward.
[Night Walking]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo one could keep up with his speed. A series of afterimages leaped across the snowy field and in the blink of an eye, Alex arrived in the middle of the Orc rider group. Even though he was surrounded by a dozen massive Orcs, he didn't fluster at all.
The beast has been unleashed.
Grrrr!
The Orcs raised their weapons and brandished at him. However, the heavy weapons didn't hit their target. Alex passed through an opening and extended his right arm. A shotgun emerged.
This single-barreled shotgun is very powerful, it's used around the world as it's known for its easy maintenance and reliability.
The typical length of the weapon is 959mm and has a barrel length of 821mm. The weapon weighs 2.3kg.
The caliber used in this weapon is a 28 gauge and uses a break-action firing mechanism. The ammo used most commonly are stingers, but it also takes sabots, dragon's breath, and shotshells.
This shotgun comes with an extendable stock, but a pistol grip and an English fishtail stock are also available.
The stock is made out of a cheaper type of wood, but it can also be made out of plastic and premium wood if you so desire.
There are expensive decorations on the stock, a cross-shaped carving, and Silveria's addition.
The imagined weapon was designed by an Iranian man named B. Javan who initially designed it for use in guerilla warfare, today it's used for the fight against drugs, guerilla warfare, and riot control.
The name of this weapon is the QT-2, but it usually goes by its nickname, Dominion.
The sudden apparition of Dominion frightened the Orcs, they could smell death and indeed it was the death bringer.
Bang!
Blazing flames erupted in from Dominion like an enraged flame beast.
Boom!
A dazzling, scarlet bullet exploded and the Orcs around him retreated in fear. At the same time, more Flame bullets were fired and bolted toward the Orc, flames burning in each of its three mouths.
"Monster! Fire! Monster!" The Orcs shouted because Alex's Flame bullets indeed reassembled flame monsters.
The Flame bullets' grand appearance forced the Orcs back. As an ignorant and backward tribe, the Orcs were extremely fearful of unusual presences. Although the Flame Bullet was only capable of taking down two to three Orcs, Orcs had never seen such a thing they believed it came straight from Hell.
Alex attacked with his sword while shooting more special bullets, Ice Bullet, Earth Bullet capable of creating earth pikes that pierced through the fleeing Orcs, and lastly Darkness Bullet capable of restraining the enemy by creating dark tentacles.
This ambush left the Orcs in confusion and disorientation. They couldn't understand why a single man was capable of something like this.
Alex's current appearance as he smiled while slaughtering their kin naturally wasn't pleasing, which deepened their fears.
"Human! Demon! Human! Demon!"
Facing this outrageous scene, the confidence in them had dwindled to nothingness. They cried frantically and turned away from the terrifying black-haired Human. The Half-Demons looked on vacantly from the fort wall. They didn't realize that Alex possessed such a strange battle style. What exactly are those battle techniques?
Alice and her team of Healers chanted softly. Flickering golden light emerged above their palms and linked up to form a perfect gold chain. Randall and his team of Rangers lifted their longbows and aimed at the enemies.
Alice stopped chanting and pushed her hands forward to send a golden, dazzling sphere of light forward. It flew across the sky and struck their way of retreat. Shortly after, the tiny sphere of light spread in two directions, forming a golden wall that obstructed their retreat.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRandall and his Rangers didn't stand by idly either. They knew that they could only rely on themselves in the absence of Johnson's Cavalrymen. They released their precious magic arrows at the enemies and in an instant, a harmony of lightning, thunderbolts, and fireballs bombarded the frantic enemies. The Orcs tried to escape, but could not break the invisible wall. At this moment, Alex's special bullets stopped them.
The situation had become one-sided in an instant.
As the situation took a drastic turn, the group defending the fort turned around and launched their attacks on the Orcs altogether. The evil, mysterious creatures and Humans combined hands to take on the Orcs, which stirred up the Orcs' aggression. The Orcs turned around and yelled as they pounced toward their enemies.
But this was their final assault.
Alex knew this, it was why he launched a sword strike.
Alex's Sword Art- 3rd Form: Meteor's Slash
Countless meteor-like blade rays sliced through the air. The immense air stream swept up the thick snow and the broken sound barrier pierced their ears and enveloped them entirely.
At the next moment, a contrasting red smeared across the white, fluttering snowflakes. The incredible explosion of scarlet flames devoured the pure white snow as though an oil painting changing its colors in an instant.
The battle had ended.
The Orcs had been scared witless. They were caught off guard by the alliance of Anvil and Marcus's groups from the rear and the magic traps set up by Joe previously. Then, Randall's magic arrows had wiped out nearly 200 Orcs.
Furthermore, Alex's appearance instantly increased the count to over 500 deaths. The remaining Orcs had no chance against the well-equipped elite squad and were wiped out in the blink of an eye.
This was also why Alex was so confident in this battle. In fact, if he wished to eliminate the Orcs, he wouldn't need their help at all if he were to unleash all of his cards, his full strength could have wiped out the Orcs even if they were thousands.
However, he didn't take action until the very end in order to strengthen the coordination of his men. He realized that the situation at the end was rather concerning, which was why he had chosen to settle the Orcs by himself. But he wasn't feeling delighted because, even though his men coordinated well at the start of the battle, he wasn't able to test out his tactic fully.
Although his men were trained in a situation where the reinforcements from the rear failed to appear, that was established under the fact that the main forces were trapped or defeated by the enemies. Under such a circumstance, there were only three choices for Alex. Firstly, he could choose to retreat instantly and escape to their base using the Teleportation scroll. Flee if one couldn't win in battle—that was the essence of guerrilla warfare. Second, Alex could shield the others as they retreated.
The third choice was to defend their position and wait for the main forces from the rear to arrive before launching the pincer attack. Alex had intended to use this third method to train his men. However, Johnson's sudden disappearance was too unusual and he might as well end the battle as soon as possible.
Alex wanted to try various strategies and finally pick the right one, he was using the current situation to learn let's not forget.
However, he still has to do his job properly, it was why he must understand why Johnson and his cavalrymen hadn't shown up.
