Chapter 248 Going Underground
"You guys are really crazy..."
Walking beside Duanmuhuai, Kate looked at the group of steel warriors in disbelief. Humans and the orcs have been fighting for more than ten years. Even on the ground, humans have no advantage. They can only kill each other with a powerful weapon like the Hammer of Dawn. But these steel warriors who don’t know where they come from actually want to Want to go underground and find the lair of the Orcs?
Kate originally thought that these steel warriors were new warriors from the Security Government Alliance. After all, in her memory, only the Security Government Alliance had such strength on this continent. But in fact, these steel warriors are not from the Security Government Alliance, nor from the Independent Republican Alliance that once failed in the Pendulum War. On the contrary, according to this terrifying black warrior, they belong to a group called the Tribunal. organize.
The only reason they came here was that the beasts threatened the existence of humans, so they came here to completely eliminate these beasts.
Frankly speaking, Kate did not understand the logic and thoughts of these warriors at all, and she had never heard of the Inquisition. However, in fact, they did appear in front of him and easily wiped out an entire team of orcs. If this wasn't Kate's dream before she died, then these steel warriors, no matter what their reasons were, were here to fight the Orcs.
For Kate, that was enough.
It was precisely because of this that Kate took the initiative to take them to the place where the beasts were infested. Although she didn't know whether these people's crazy actions would succeed, in any case, Kate was a person who had died once, and she was tired of the homeless people's mediocre and no-tomorrow days. Instead of living in fear and fear, Among them, it is better to take the initiative to pick up weapons and attack those orcs.
At least...she can decide when she will die.
At this moment, Duanmuhuai stopped, looked forward, and then looked at Kate.
"That's the front?"
"Yes, that's right there..."
Kate looked at the dark shadows ahead and couldn't help but become nervous. As a homeless guard, Kate was naturally very familiar with this area. She had also heard a lot of information and rumors about the Orcs. Among them are the ruins in this valley.
It was a huge castle built on the mountain. According to the homeless people, the history of this castle is very long, even going back hundreds of years. At that time, a large number of gold mines were discovered here, so the country's The ruler built a fortress here to protect the gold mine.
Hundreds of years later, after the gold mines here were dug out, the fortress was abandoned because it was too old. Perhaps because of this, it also escaped the Pendulum War and is considered a relatively well-preserved relic.
There was once a tribe of wanderers who wanted to settle here, but then almost all of them were killed. According to the few homeless people who barely escaped, not long after they entered the castle, the orcs dug along the mine tunnels below. When they came up, the homeless people had no time to resist and were slaughtered by the beasts.
After that, this ruins became the lair of the beast tribe, and nomads did not dare to go near it.
It was already dusk now, and the blood-red sunset light shone on the castle built on the mountain, as if a piece of blood had been splashed on it.
The entire castle was shrouded in silent shadows, without any sound, as if it was a dead cemetery.
Soon, Duanmu Huai led the Astra Militarum to the gate of the castle. The heavy gate fell to the ground, but there was still no sound from all around. Not even an orc could be seen. Obviously, this was completely different from the heavily guarded fortress that Kate had imagined.
"I...I don't know what's going on..."
She held the gun in her hand and looked around blankly.
"The news I got before is that there are indeed many orcs here..."
Duanmuhuai didn't pay attention to Kate's words. He just snapped his fingers. Soon, he saw the trunk behind Duanmuhuai open, and then two detective skulls flew out, and then they floated silently into the room in front of him. In the castle. Then, Duanmuhuai turned to the night guard beside him.
"There is only one order, kill the enemy on sight and completely eliminate all enemies. This will become our next stronghold."
"Understood, my lord."
The Night Guard saluted, and then quickly issued the order. Soon, the other Astra Militarum troops quickly arranged their formations, walked forward in silence, and entered the castle in front of them that seemed to have no signs of life. among.
Duanmuhuai stood there, staring at the castle in front of him. This time he came here to train troops. Naturally, he didn't have to take the lead in everything. What's more, he had already experienced the power of this group of beasts before. To put it bluntly, they were a degraded version of green skins, and they did not have the exaggerated reproductive ability of green skins. , although it seems that these orcs seem to have some intelligence, but... compared to the green skins who are WAAAAAAAGH in everything, these orcs are still far behind.
But it can accumulate some experience for the soldiers under his command.
Kate didn't know what Duanmuhuai was thinking. She just stood there uneasily, staring at the castle in front of her. She was a little worried that she had given wrong information, and she was also worried that this was a trap by the orcs - although most of them People think that the orcs have well-developed limbs and simple minds, but vagrants know that these orcs are not as stupid as advertised, they are very smart... and can even be said to be scary.
"Da da da da da da!!!"
While Kate was waiting anxiously, suddenly, a series of rapid gunshots rang out, interrupting Kate's thoughts. She hurriedly raised her head and looked towards the dark castle in front of her. Kate could tell that it was the gunshot sound unique to the orcs that she was familiar with.
Soon, there was a loud sound of gunfire. Without seeing it, Kate could imagine that there were probably a large number of orcs attacking the steel warriors in the castle.
Obviously, this is indeed a trap!
"………………!!!"
Thinking of this, Kate hurriedly looked at the black warrior beside her, but Duanmuhuai still didn't respond. Even the two girls beside him didn't seem to care about the battle taking place in the castle at this moment. Ogis even used Duanmuhuai’s searchlight is reading a book…………
"Dong dong dong dong!!!"
At this time, a special kind of gun sound sounded. This was the weapon in the hands of the Iron Warriors. Kate had heard the sound of these guns firing. Their sounds were heavy and deep, and it sounded like every time they fired, it was like firing a cannonball. , just hearing the gunshot made her feel as if her heart had been hit by a heavy hammer.
I don't know how long it took for the gunshots to stop. Only then did Duanmuhuai glance at his helmet. "Ten minutes...it seems like it's still not enough."
Duanmu Huai shook his head. According to his calculations, including running away, all the orcs should be wiped out in a place like this within five minutes. As a result, these Astral Army troops actually took ten minutes. It looked like a dark night. As the guard said, these soldiers indeed need more fighting and training.
"Let's go."
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai led everyone into the castle.
When they entered the castle, the battle was over, and the corpses of the beasts were everywhere on the ground. Looking at the miserable appearance of the beasts, Kate even felt a little ridiculous. You must know that humans have almost never achieved any victory over the beasts. But now, she has witnessed with her own eyes a group of steel warriors completely wiping out these terrifying beasts with ease...
"Have you confirmed the entrance?"
Duanmuhuai didn't even look at these beasts, but looked directly at the night guard in front of him, who nodded.
"Very good, leave some people to be responsible for the transformation here, and others will continue to move forward. I want to see which lair underground these beast race bastards are staying in!"
When Duanmu Huai led his men into the underground along the mine tunnel with murderous intent, the orcs underground also received the news that the team he sent had been annihilated.
Humans annihilated the orc army?
After receiving this news, the Orc general in the underground city couldn't believe his ears. Didn't he expect that the Orcs, who had always been brave and fearless, would be beaten to death by a group of human soldiers, or even annihilated?
How is this possible?
This is simply an insult to the dignity of the orcs!
At this moment, the Orc General finally couldn't help but stand up and gave the order.
"Find out immediately where those damn humans are! I will kill them myself!"
However, before the Orc general could finish his words, an Orc soldier stumbled in.
"Report! A group of humans have gone deep underground and are attacking us!"
"…………What?!"
These orcs are simply vulnerable.
Kate had never thought that she would have such thoughts, but now, when she looked at these fragile beasts in front of her, this thought could not go away.
"Die!!"
With a roar, Duanmuhuai rushed through the hole like a furious rhinoceros and rushed towards the orc soldiers in front of him. The latter raised their firearms in panic and shot at Duanmuhuai wildly. There was even an orc standing behind the fire turret, aiming at Duanmuhuai and firing countless ammunition.
These ammunitions are enough to knock down any human warrior, even vehicles may not be spared. However, when these bullets hit Duanmuhuai's thick armor, they were directly bounced off, and then Kate saw Duanmuhuai hit him head-on. It passed by and directly smashed the wildly firing turret and the orcs controlling it into pieces.
Then Duanmu Huai suddenly raised his war hammer and swung it forward, and then the other orcs around him were immediately swept away and turned into bloody corpses.
"Keep moving! Follow the traces of these beasts, find their lairs, and destroy them completely!"
Under Duanmu Huai's order, the Astral Army immediately began to take action. However, at this moment, suddenly, an angry roar suddenly sounded!
When hearing this voice, Kate's expression changed drastically.
"Be careful, it's a violent female orc!!"
"Huh?"
Hearing Kate's size, Duanmuhuai also hurriedly looked to the side. At this moment, he saw the stone wall beside him suddenly collapsed, and then, a huge orc that was as strong as Duanmuhuai jumped out of it with a roar. , rushed directly towards Duanmuhuai.
However, before its hand even touched the target, Duanmuhuai grabbed its head directly, and then smashed it heavily on the ground. The next moment, Duanmuhuai's hand suddenly turned, and just like this, he forcefully hit this huge beast. The clan head was pulled out.
“……………………”
Seeing this scene, Kate's face turned livid, while Duanmu Huai picked up the green-faced fanged head, looked at it carefully, and then looked at Kate.
"How does this thing look like a girl?"
Then, he asked.
