Outside the house, countless eyes were fixed on it.
The mosaic glass windows were tightly shut, but even from outside the house, one could faintly discern what was happening inside through the candlelight. The girl's body now lay limp in the man's arms on the chair.
At first, the man seemed somewhat surprised, but soon he picked up the girl and walked towards the other side of the house. As the figures moved further away from the window, it became impossible to see what happened next. However, the direction the man was heading in was towards the bed in the cottage.
"Hehehe..." Scarface, the orc, sat on the grass not far from the cottage, observing the situation inside through the window. He let out a sinister laugh. "Indeed, humans are such lowly creatures. Just by placing those plants emitting aphrodisiac scent in the house, they would mate."
Speaking to himself, Scarface turned his head to look at the nearby hill covered in bushes. Suddenly, he raised his left hand and swung it forcefully towards the hill.
Under the faint moonlight, many red dots appeared on the hill. Those were the eyes of orcs and direwolves. Upon careful observation, one could see that those were red eyes.
It turned out that there were many orcs hiding on the hill next to the cottage.
These orcs had gray skin and had been hiding within the bushes. When they saw Scarface's gesture, they began to stand up one after another. There were hundreds of orcs on the hill.
Some of them held axes, some wielded giant hammers, and some carried large bows and arrows on their backs.
Among these orcs, there was one orc warrior who stood out. He held a silver giant axe, had pointed teeth, and sharp eyes. He wore a red copper armor with a blue cloak bearing the emblem of a silver axe. He also wore a crown made of deer antlers on his head.
"Chief, everything is in place," whispered an orc who was crouching next to him, and the orc with the crown nodded. Then, he raised his giant axe in his right hand and swung it towards the sky.
As he swung his axe, some of the orcs on the hill brought out their giant bows, which were more like multiple crossbows that could carry several arrows. The orcs loaded the arrows onto the bows and aimed them at the window of the cottage, which emitted a yellow candlelight.
At this moment, Scarface, riding a direwolf, moved away from the cottage and came to the foot of the hill. He looked at his fellow orcs on the hill, observing the imminent situation, and sneered:
"Humans, this is the fate of defying us orcs. Of course, our great chief is very merciful towards you. Just enjoy your peak of passion while being pierced by countless arrows. The sight of humans, naked and pierced by numerous arrows, will surely be a wonderful scene."
Speaking to himself, Scarface also saw countless silver lights dancing in the air under the moonlight. Those were the reflections of moonlight from the arrowheads shot by the orcs.
Although the cottage was made of wood, the canvas on top was not, so the sharp arrows could easily penetrate the roof and hit the people inside.
All of this was part of the orcs' plan.
When Scarface agreed to meet the orc chief, the plan had already begun. He used an eagle to transmit what was happening to the orc tribe. The chief's response was to set a trap in the cottage.
Thus, inside the cottage, there were flowers that were particularly effective in arousing human desire, which paralyzed the nerves of the humans. Outside the cottage, the elite forces of the orcs lay in ambush, ready to strike when the humans became complacent.
The chief's ideas and strategies were in line with Scarface's wishes, and the fact that the chief personally supervised the battle did not surprise him. However, Scarface did not expect that the chief would send almost a hundred elite orc warriors. According to Scarface's estimate, even if the man was very powerful and had a pair of strange black wings behind him, fifty orcs would have been enough to deal with him.
Although it was a waste to have a hundred orcs engaging one mutated human, Scarface was still very excited at this moment. He remembered his legs being frozen by Liu Xuan earlier and still felt a chill lingering. And now, he would have his revenge on the humiliation he suffered, a hundred times over.
He spread his arms and eagerly watched as countless arrows were shot towards the cottage, imagining the scene of the humans and the girl being pierced by a thousand arrows through their hearts."Die, humans!" The orc roared as he watched the arrows about to shoot into the hut, venting his anger.
We won!
"We... fight..."
But then, there was a strange sound coming from the hut, as if the faint clash of metal. However, this clash was not just one collision, but a continuous, sharp, yet somewhat crisp metallic sound.
"This..." Scarface saw a scene that he never expected.
Countless arrows, just as they were about to touch the hut, suddenly stopped. They formed a spherical arrangement, stopping around the hut, as if there was an invisible sphere enveloping the hut, adhering everything that touched it.
"How... Could it be...? Did that guy freeze the arrows with something similar to ice?" Scarface's face showed an incredulous expression, mixed with fear.
But even so, it seemed that he guessed wrong.
Because next, those arrows suddenly reversed by 180 degrees, turned their heads, and, as if in reverse motion, shot back at the orcs along the original trajectory, at a much faster speed than when they were shot in the first place!
"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!" "Oh!"
The orcs on the hill screamed in agony, their faces still revealing expressions of shock even after death. They never would have imagined that the arrows they shot would take their own lives instead.
And before they died, they only had one thought left: how terrifying!
The remaining orcs also looked at the hut in shock and fear.
Who on earth was in that hut? How could they do such a thing!
At this moment, the door of the hut was pushed open.
A man slowly walked out from inside. He held a golden-haired girl in his arms, who seemed to be in a deep sleep. Behind him, a pair of striking black wings spread on his back.
At this moment, the man looked ahead at the orcs on the hill with his crimson eyes and muttered to himself:
"It seems that this attack has killed many orcs. It appears that my wish to peacefully rescue the princess has been shattered."
