Due to the panic, Catherine quickly lost her way in the forest with her five private soldiers. However, in the process of running left and right, she was lucky to meet a team.
"Viscount Charlie! Viscount Charlie! "
There were about forty to fifty people in front of them. The noble leading them was a feudal lord in the eastern part of Aferta. His influence was considered to be in the upper echelons of Aferta, and he had a good relationship with the Bolton territory. His team was well-equipped, and they gave off a sense of security at first glance.
Viscount Charlie was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was slightly plump, and even his hunting leather armor couldn't hide his protruding belly. Hearing Catherine's voice, he, who was complaining about not having any prey, immediately turned his head and replied curiously, "Isn't this Miss Catherine? Didn't you and your father act together? "
Although that was what he said, it took the viscount a lot of effort to move his gaze away from her chest.
"Lord Viscount, have you seen my father? I came in to look for him, but I couldn't find him. "
"Oh, I chatted with him when I first entered the forest, but he went to the west after that. No one knows where he is now. Why, Miss Catherine, do you want to take a walk with me? The forest is very dangerous. It might not be enough for you to bring a few people with you. "
As he spoke, he pointed at his well-equipped private soldiers, seemingly showing off.
If it was in the past, Catherine would definitely choose to flatter him before making a timely request. She might even purposely puff out her chest a few times to achieve her goal. But now, she wasn't in the mood at all. After hurriedly glancing at the soldiers, Catherine said loudly, "Viscount Charlie, I hope to seek your protection … We must leave this forest immediately!"
"Leave now?"
Viscount Charlie raised his eyebrows high. Then, he turned his eyes and said with a "tacit understanding", "Miss Catherine, are you in the mood to come over to my place today? But you can wait a little longer. Bring me to hunt a few deer … Dinner will be more sumptuous. I heard that deer blood is very useful … "
Catherine's face twisted in anger when she heard that. Deer blood was a tonic used by nobles to "strengthen their sex drive." Obviously, he thought that she was asking for a "one-night stand"!
At a time like this, he was still thinking about this!
"No, no, no. Viscount Charlie, you might have misunderstood me. I'm really not joking. I just saw a noble being chased by an Orc Wolf Rider!"
"What?"
"Did I hear that right?"
"Wolf riders … Is she talking about beastmen?"
The surrounding private soldiers immediately started discussing, and Viscount Charlie's smile became even brighter. "Wolf Riders … Orc Wolf Riders? I think Miss Catherine must have heard too many unreliable stories from the bards. The orcs' territory is thousands of miles away from here. Even if there are wolf riders, they will attack the border first. Even if they attack Hollier City, it has nothing to do with us here. "
"No, no, no! I'm not mistaken! I saw three people being killed by them … "
"Miss Catherine, perhaps this is your first time in the Da Vinci Forest? There are some ferocious beasts in this forest, so it's quite dangerous. Don't worry, my team will definitely protect you. "
Viscount Charlie interrupted her, but when he said this, he still looked at Catherine's breasts and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Catherine still wanted to explain the danger of the situation, but no matter how much she said, even if she got her private soldiers to testify, it was useless. Viscount Charlie even said impatiently, "Even if it's really the orcs, my team is enough to make sure that they won't be able to return. Miss Catherine, are you relieved now?"
Catherine didn't speak, only feeling cold all over.
She had never hated these sanctimonious nobles as much as she did today. Why do these people only know how to enjoy themselves all day long? Even when the danger is right in front of them, they didn't notice it at all, and even mocked others as lunatics!
But when she thought about it, Catherine vainly realized … Wasn't this her previous self?
When that "country bumpkin" spoke frankly about the kingdom's danger, she disdainfully mocked him for being "alarmist". She didn't even have the patience to continue listening to him.
Now it seemed that all the nobles who were paralyzed by peace would pay the price for their laxity …
"Is the team ready to move forward, Miss Catherine?"
Viscount Charlie called out to her. Catherine nodded blankly and then followed the team. No matter what, if she acted alone, it would be a dead end for her. She could only choose to follow.
With more than 40 well-equipped guards by her side, the orcs probably wouldn't have the ability to attack.
She thought to herself.
But a few minutes later, when Viscount Charlie finally found a wild boar and was about to kill it, a team of orc wolf riders suddenly rushed out from the forest and pulled Catherine into a nightmare once again.
"What the hell is this … Damn it! Defend! Protect me! Come over! "
Viscount Charlie was completely frightened by the wolf riders that were charging at him. He didn't expect to see orcs alive in his lifetime. But he didn't lose his fighting spirit. He immediately raised his bow and arrows and started shooting. He believed that these guys were as vulnerable as the wild boar.
But he quickly realized the cruelty of reality.
The orcs' strong bodies could even ignore the soft arrows of the hunting bow. Their charging footsteps never stopped!
More than 20 private soldiers in front pulled out their long swords and tried their best to gather together to protect Viscount Charlie. But in the end, they were smashed by the fifteen wolf riders!
Like a sand sculpture being smashed by a rising tide, Viscount Charlie's team collapsed in an instant, and when he was fleeing in panic, his skull was smashed by the enemy with a mace with iron nails tied to it …
When the private soldiers saw that their master was dead, they completely lost the idea of fighting back. They scattered in all directions, but because of their poor horsemanship and the lack of explosive power of the horses, almost all of them were caught by the orc wolf riders and fell into a pool of blood one by one …
The grayish-black Mount Wolves were panting heavily due to exhaustion. Their mouths were filled with foamy white saliva. Almost every Mount Wolf was covered in blood. On the simple and crude saddles hung … human heads with terrified expressions.
"These fragile humans, killing them is like killing sheep!"
"They're wearing such fine armor. Even my sword can't cut through them. If it weren't for these humans running away, I'm afraid things wouldn't have gone so smoothly …"
"They're just a bunch of cowardly dogs!"
The orcs grinned and discussed the situation in front of them savagely. A few hundred meters away, Catherine, who had chosen to run away at the first moment, had already jumped off her horse and hid behind a tree. She tried hard to hold back the fear that made her want to cry.
"What should I do … What should I do …"

"Orc attack! Line up! Defend! "
When the order was shouted through the skill "Battle Roar", almost everyone on the battlefield could hear Sodelor's voice.
The "Dragon Spear Knights" who were entangled with Sienna's private soldiers were collectively stunned. Titus and Wellington, who were chasing from afar, also tightened their reins. Not only that, whether it was the "Rose Cross" or "Viper Cross", all of them stopped because of the word "orcs".
Panting heavily, the people raised their heads and couldn't help but look into the distance. When they saw the figures riding the black wolves into the battlefield, most of them revealed confused expressions …
Many of the soldiers in the middle of the kingdom didn't know about the "Wolf Riders" at all. They didn't even realize what "orcs" represented!
But no matter how they thought, Roddy and Sodelor, who bore the brunt of the attack, had to face the attack of the 30 Wolf Riders.
Sodelor gripped his longsword tightly. After scanning the surroundings, he looked at Roddy. The latter pointed to the forest beside him and shouted, "Run to the left! Find a warhorse and get on! "
"I'll cover you!"
Rody stretched out his hand and pulled out the remaining explosive arrows. He aimed at the incoming enemies and began to shoot.
"Boom!"
The first Wolf Rider's chest was blasted open by an arrow. The splatter of blood and flesh enraged the rest of the Wolf Riders. Along the way, they had flattened several human villages unscathed. So far, there were almost no casualties. The endless victories had given them the illusion that they were "invincible" …
And Roddy's shooting immediately made everyone turn their attention to him.
"Kill that damned human!"
After countless internal battles and selections, the Orcs under Warlord Godard's banner were now stronger than the Wolf Riders Roddy had met at the border two years ago. Each of them was strong and skilled. So even though there were only 30 of them, the momentum of the Wolf Riders when they charged down the slope still had a barbaric momentum that human cavalry couldn't compare to …
In such a desperate situation, Roddy naturally wouldn't stand still. He turned and ran. At the same time, he used all his skills to accelerate. "Sprint" and "Leap" were activated at the same time with "Full Concentration" and "Sprint". In an instant, Roddy shook off the Wolf Riders and ran towards the forest on the side like a bolt of lightning.
This gave the Orcs a fright. The guy in front who was ready to throw the net almost dropped it under his feet. They never thought that someone could run faster than a warg on flat ground!
Fortunately, Roddy's skill only lasted for five seconds. After putting a distance of about 50 meters between himself and the Orcs, his speed immediately slowed down. At this time, the entire Wolf Rider team had already left the battlefield. The red-eyed Orcs didn't seem to be under anyone's command at all. They were all howling, obviously wanting to kill Roddy to avenge their companions.
In terms of understanding of Orcs, no one in this forest could compare to Roddy. So, he quickly made an assessment of the enemy's strength and immediately came up with a countermeasure. He continued running. Just as the Orcs closed in and raised their nets again, the huge figure of the "Train King" had already appeared in front of Roddy!
Roddy directly used "Leap" to jump on the back of the Elk. He reached out and grabbed the ridged guard on the saddle and fastened his feet to a special stabilizer belt.
Ever since they entered the forest, the custom-made half-body scale armor had long been equipped on the body of the "Train King". Not only that, the two sides of the saddle on its back were also equipped with at least 500 arrows and all kinds of backup weapons …
So when Roddy put on the "Mongolian style" of shooting, and used "Magician's Hand" to hover more than 10 arrows on the right side of his body, the situation immediately changed.
One against 30, Roddy charged head-on.
