Chapter 31 Encirclement by the River
Chapter 31 Encirclement by the River
Roar--
But he was met with the roar of a beast, and Aragorn immediately realized something was wrong.
Splash!
The next second, the sound of various branches rubbing together and the sound of leaves colliding filled the surrounding woods.
The air suddenly became foul and reeked, and the roars of beasts grew louder.
The next second, a powerful orc clad in black iron armor burst out of the bushes, roaring as he brandished his weapon and slashed at Aragorn.
Aragorn showed no fear, raised his sword to parry and beheaded the man!
At the same time, more orcs rushed out from all parts of the forest.
woo-
But the next second, a horn sounded from the distant woods.
That's the horn of Gondor!
Polomier!
woo-
As Boromir retreated, he blew his horn. Looking at the large number of orcs surrounding him, he felt a sense of powerlessness.
There are too many!
Just now, from a high point on a ruined platform, he looked at the orcs surrounding him, densely packed, their heads thronging around him.
He could only request reinforcements while retreating back towards the riverbank he had come from.
Because their path forward has been blocked!
Just as Boromir was retreating rapidly, he ran into Frodo and his three companions who were fleeing as he looked back to observe the enemy situation.
Fortunately, Pippin and Merry were in front of him to block the impact, otherwise Frodo would have been badly hurt.
The two men who were bumped cried out in pain, clutching their buttocks, and were about to scold the person who had bumped into them, but then they saw Boromir getting up as well.
"What are you doing here?" Polomir was somewhat surprised.
"We noticed the orcs coming and retreated towards the river!" Sam said from the side.
Polomir had no doubts.
He immediately ordered the four to retreat first, while he drew his sword alone, ready to block the surging orc army.
After watching dozens of orcs surrounding him being killed by laser guns, Tie Hui excitedly drew his greatsword.
Looking at the remaining five powerful orcs, I prepared to have a go with them!
He immediately turned around and began to swing the heavy sword in his hand...
whoosh-
Ding--
Tie Hui had just turned around once, the blade of his greatsword had just left the ground, and before he could finish turning, he felt something suddenly hit his back.
Looking down instinctively, I saw a black arrow lying quietly on the ground.
Looking up at the group of orcs, he saw them drawing their bows and aiming their arrows at him.
"Damn it! No sportsmanship whatsoever!"
Enraged, Tie Hui cursed loudly and instantly conjured a fireball in his palm, which he then hurled at the attacker.
If it weren't for the bulletproof armor that stopped the arrows, he would probably be dead.
Looking at the corpses of the orcs, he spat and cursed, "How sinister!"
woo-
As soon as the bugle sounded, Tie Hui immediately picked up his laser rifle and rushed towards the direction of the sound.
I don't know if I can make it!
The orcs who blocked his way were mostly dealt with by him using laser guns.
It's not that he doesn't want to use magic, but that using too much magic would put a great strain on his mental strength.
So he chose to use a laser gun!
Most importantly, the laser gun is highly efficient at killing, and the system rewards you with two energy points for every powerful orc you kill.
Therefore, I chose the laser gun first!
At this moment, Boromir single-handedly lured away almost all of the Orcs.
Even so, some Orcs, relying on their keen sense of smell, chased after the Hobbits in the direction they had fled.
The hobbits could already vaguely see the black torrent spreading down the hillside behind them.
Pippin and Merry glanced back, then made up their minds, grabbed Frodo who was running ahead, and shoved him into the bushes.
Before Sam could react, Merri kicked him inside again.
Pipin whispered to the two men, "Run! Run in the opposite direction!"
The two then jumped up and down on the spot, waving and shouting to the pursuing orc legion, "Here! Here! Come quick!"
The next second, all the orcs saw two arrogant hobbits.
The orcs roared and chased after them. Seeing this, Merry and Pippin immediately took off running in another direction.
Meanwhile, in the nearby bushes, Sam held Frodo down tightly, both of them watching with immense sorrow as Pippin and Merry led the orcs away.
Until all the orcs were lured away and disappeared from sight.
The two of them got up from the bushes. Frodo stood there blankly, looking in that direction, tears streaming down his face.
Sam, suppressing his grief and tears, packed his belongings and then pulled Frodo along as they ran quickly towards the river.
Tie Hui was very fast, but the horn sound had stopped.
"Aragorn!" Tie Hui saw Aragorn and his two companions fighting a group of orcs from afar.
Tie Hui's shout attracted the attention of most of the orcs.
They raised their guns and fired immediately; within seconds, more than a dozen orcs were shot down.
This greatly reduced the pressure on Aragorn and his companions.
Roar--
This displeased the orcs, who roared and tried to charge.
But after several more of their companions were shot dead, they immediately drew their longbows and aimed their arrows at Tie Hui.
whoosh-
In an instant, arrows rained down like a forest.
Tie Hui waved his hand, and a magical shield appeared in front of him.
The arrows struck it with a clang, then scattered and fell around it.
Upon seeing this, Tie Hui grinned.
Magic is really useful!
Tie Hui pulled out a grenade, removed the pin, and threw it with all his might.
When Aragorn and his companions saw Ironhide's action, they were instantly terrified and, disregarding the enemy in front of them, quickly hid behind the surrounding rocks and hillsides.
boom--
The explosion ignited and dissipated instantly, but the shockwave knocked the gathered orcs to the ground, and the shrapnel mixed in blasted the nearest orcs and their armor to smithereens.
The shattered armor plates were further fragmented by the shockwave.
This wiped out fifty or sixty orcs. If it weren't for the terrain here with its many trees, loose rocks, and gentle slopes, the kill range would probably have been even larger.
Tie Hui listened to the continuous notifications from the system in his mind, feeling quite pleased with himself.
He glanced at the laser gun's remaining battery, decided not to change it, put it away, took out his greatsword, and charged down.
I need to practice my swordsmanship!
Anyway, there are only about 20 Orcs left!
With his continuous spinning and swinging, the greatsword finally began to dance.
The powerful inertia prevented him from stopping immediately, forcing him to spin around and hack at the orcs.
His heavy sword whistled as it struck, often cleaving someone in half at the waist!
When only one orc remained, he executed a diagonal upward slash followed by a downward smash, cleaving the orc in two from head to toe.
