Head Knight Eddy's face finally looked a little better, but he knew today's battle was not going to be easy. From what he could see, the orcs were determined to win.
The orc battle drum that had not appeared for a long time had appeared. What was waiting for them next?
The orc battle drum was still ringing. Perhaps the orcs knew it would take some time for the battle drum to work, so they did not appear.
Although Abel was helping everyone to remove the curse from the orc battle drum, he was still paying attention to the orc battle drum. He was constantly calculating the direction and distance of the orc battle drum in his mind.
The sound of the orc battle drum had a strange confusing effect, making people unable to sense its direction.
However, this was just more troublesome for Abel. After a while, he found the direction of the orc battle drum. It was about 5 miles away from him.
He took out the binoculars he made before from his portal bag and looked towards the direction of the orc battle drum.
Even though the sky was already dark, he could still vaguely see a group of orcs standing on a small hill. The orcs were protecting a huge war drum, and two tall orcs were beating the drum with all their might.
"Head Knight Eddy, I'll go destroy that drum!" Abel turned to Head Knight Eddy and said.
"K3516, do you know the direction of the battle drum?" Of course, Head Knight Eddy knew the first thing to do was to remove the threat of the orc battle drum. However, he also knew it was hard to find the direction of the orc battle drum in this dark.
His eyes were fixed on the binoculars in Abel's hand. He saw Abel use this thing to look into the distance. That was why he was confident enough to say something like this.
"Please take a look!" Said Abel as he handed the binoculars to Head Knight Eddy.
The Great Knight Eddy followed Abel's instructions and saw the orcs and their war drums on the hillside in the distance.
Knight Eddy exclaimed, "This is a great thing. It can detect the enemy first in a battle. If it's used by scouts, they won't even need to get close to the enemy. It's a lot less dangerous!"
He saw the orc war drums in the distance, but as a Knight who guarded the Miracle Wall, the first thing he thought of was the use of the telescope. It didn't matter if he lost a battle or failed a mission. He could always get it back next time.
However, the binoculars in his hands were different. This was a weapon of war. It might be able to change the tactics of a scout, and it was even more important for a commander.
"Great Knight Eddy, after the mission is over, I can provide the production method of this item to Miracle City!" Abel didn't expect Great Knight Eddy to care so much about the binoculars. If it wasn't for the dark sky, he would've forgotten about the binoculars.
Abel's eyesight was far better than ordinary people. If it was daytime, his eyesight would only be a little weaker than a telescope, so he wouldn't need it.
"I thank you on behalf of Miracle City. I didn't expect you to be an alchemist!" Said Great Knight Eddy with gratitude.
None of the people present knew how the telescope worked, so their first thought was that the telescope was an alchemy item. In fact, this was not far from the truth. Although there were magnifying glasses in this world, the magnifying glasses were also made by alchemists.
However, Head Commander Edi's words had hit the nail on Abel's other profession. Abel was indeed an alchemist, but he was only an alchemist in a branch of the alchemist profession.
"I'm also a member of Miracle City, so I'll give you this binoculars. I'll go now and pull out that orc battle drum!" Said Abel waving his hand.
"Mr. Wizard k3516, I'll go with you!" The Grand Knight Of The Bodley said on the side.
"No need, my mount is the fastest. It won't take long!" Abel said casually. He didn't even take into account the time it would take to kill the orcs.
This kind of strong confidence boosted the morale of everyone present. For a moment, their mood, which had been somewhat depressed by the power of the curse, rose again.
Abel disconnected his power of the will, and his mount wolf king suddenly accelerated towards the hill.
After running for 100 meters, he suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. Almost instantly, a cloak appeared on his body. It was the invisibility cloak he got from the old assassin.
Abel put on the hood of the invisibility cloak, and the secret headband automatically appeared on his head. Since his mount wolf king was moving, the invisibility cloak didn't work, but all he needed was the headband's effect.
His power of the will increased from 240 points to 480 points. This was the effect of the headband. It extended the range of his power of the will from 240 meters to 480 meters.
There were 2 types of spells wizards could cast. One was to use the power of the will to guide the spell. This type of spell was limited by the range of the power of the will, so it couldn't attack targets that were too far away. However, the advantage was very obvious. It could increase the preparation time of the attack by a lot, making it very difficult for the opponent to dodge the spell.
The other type of spell was like shooting an arrow. After casting the spell, you would no longer care about the trajectory of the spell. Instead, you would just follow the direction you cast the spell. This way, you could attack enemies from afar. However, beginner level spells were very slow, so it really depended on luck if you could hit your target.
Abel's intuition had just warned him. He knew the orcs on the hill could threaten his life, so his intuition warned him in this way.
He had been using his intuition to detect danger ever since he was an elite Knight. In the Dark World, where danger was everywhere, his intuition had been trained very well.
He could sense the danger he was about to face through his intuition. This was why he had put on the invisibility cloak and used the secret headband to strengthen his power of the will.
It should be known that the range of 480 meters was even further than the range of his Riphook bow. This allowed him to have a greater understanding of the threats in the distance and find a better way to deal with them.
With the speed of the mount wolf king, Abel was able to get close in no time. There were 2 bearmen standing at the front with giant shields in their hands. They didn't even have any weapons, so they were probably the type that strengthened their defense.
Behind the bearmen were 4 head wolf rider captains. Abel could tell the identity of the worgens from their combat qi armor at a glance.
Behind them were 4 orc priests in black robes. Abel couldn't see their faces, but he could tell who they were from their clothes.
Finally, there was a giant war drum made entirely of white bones. Two tall and burly werewolves stood on the ground, beating the drum with two bone hammers in their hands. They didn't have any mounts, so they stood on the ground and beat the drum with two bone hammers.
These orcs were in a team of 10. Abel could tell they were very powerful since they were the guardians of the battle drum. At least, that was what Abel's intuition told him.
By that point, these orcs had also seen Abel. Their mission was to protect the orc battle drum. When they saw Abel was coming alone, they were stunned. If they knew where the orc battle drum was, the humans wouldn't just send a wizard.
However, they did not relax just because Abel came alone. A head wolf rider captain took out a bone flute and blew it with all his might. A sharp piercing sound pierced through the dark night.
"Not good, they are summoning other orcs!" Abel thought to himself. The 'leaf' magic staff appeared in his hand. When he was 480 meters away, his first 'fireball' spell was ignited.
If it weren't for the mysterious headband, there was no way the fireball could reach this far.
Normally, the range of a wizard's power of the will was the range of a spell. Of course, if the range of a spell was beyond the power of the will, then the range of the spell would be the standard.
Unlike other wizards, most wizards' range was beyond the power of the will. However, Abel's spell range was extended by the power of the will, just like the 'fireball' spell.
