"I can't see anything."

Virginia coughed twice. "They fled to Seyvold? We might be able to go there directly, maybe we could meet them halfway."

"No, they are likely to be attacked halfway and have to change their course." Zelin narrowed his eyes slightly, he took the reins, and the ghost horse neighed and gradually slowed down. "I may have omissions, help me pay attention to my side, Virginia, such as the corpse or the red blood on the lawn."

With that, Zelin took out a bottle of potion from the package, opened the cork, raised his head and drank the potion in the glass bottle.

"Blood on the lawn?" Virginia rolled her eyes. "Eight Holy Spirit, you must be joking."

"This is not a joke."

Zelin closed his eyes tightly, waiting for the sore eyes stimulated by the potion to recover. The shadow cast by the dark clouds faded in his eyes like the melting snow in spring, and was filled with a certain bright white hue. The grassland shrouded in twilight changed into a new color, and the fuzzy boundary in the shadow gradually became clear and sharp. The corpse lying on the ground was as obvious as a spot on a black cloth, and the blood on the large beach on the ground was like an apprentice's painting while painting. Turned over the dye bottle and dyed the grassland with uncoordinated tones. The same effect also comes from hearing, the sound of the wind, the croaking of crickets, and the hoarse shouts of more orcs, like communicating or arguing, but he knew that these orcs were far enough away from him.

"You look a bit bad," Virginia said dryly. "Ms. Yusevka said that those poisons will kill your body."

"No, actually, I feel very good." Zelin shook his head as he looked into the distance. "Let's go, there seems to be a corpse killed by an orc over there."

"What?" Virginia raised her head and looked in the direction Zelin was looking at. "I can't see anything."

"Then hurry up."

The ghost horse carried them to a hilly slope. Two orcs were squatting here, and they stood up as soon as they heard the sound, but they were still a step late. The ghost horse rushed past it, and the orc took a hard hit on the neck, turned half a circle on the spot and fell down. The other orc grabbed the weapon placed next to him, but then was hit in the waist by the ebony blade. With the sound of the second orc falling, Zelin pulled the reins to turn the ghost horse that had passed by.

The victim’s body is completely unrecognizable, but it can still be distinguished that this is a Norn. Whether it’s the helmet thrown aside or the armor left on his body, Zelin doesn’t know the living habits of the orcs, but these orcs must be very hungry. Unwilling to let go of any opportunity to eat.

Virginia behind her mouth tightened.

Soon, the demon hunter found other corpses. The second corpse was near the southern mountains. A Norn guard was lying on his back with his feet wide open, his face showing a stiff expression, showing deep fear. An arrow stuck in his eye. There were six orc corpses lying nearby. Zelin could already imagine in his mind that an orc squad found Marvin and her guards who had escaped. A conflict broke out here, and the humans won.

The **** footprints on the ground turned to the south. Zelin raised his head in the direction of his footprints, and the black shadow of the white mountain range lay in front of him.

"They want to escape into the mountains."

"Good idea, at least at the foot of the mountain, they might escape the orcs." Virginia nodded. "Maybe they are hiding behind caves or rocks nearby. Let's go and find them as soon as possible."

Zelin urged the ghost horse to run to the foot of the mountain. He didn't see any human corpses along the way. There were some orcs, but after seeing Avak glowing with ghost light in the night, these orcs also fled. But when the third body was found, Zelin's heart couldn't help but sink.

There are six human corpses here, but there are only three orc corpses, including a dead wolf with a spear stuck in his body.

"Damn..." Zelin took a sip while looking at everything in front of him. "Wolf! It's a wolf cavalry! These orcs have the help of a wolf!"

Zelin got off his horse. "Virginia, come and help me find these corpses."

"I'm coming."

The demon hunter and Virginia began to distinguish these human corpses one by one. On the plains, it is impossible for humans to run past the wolves. Zelin turned the corpses over, or wiped the blood from their faces.

These are the corpses of Norn Guards. Zelin didn't know them, but most of them wore armor.

"Virginia." Zelin shook the blood from his hand, but it had no effect. "How is your place?"

There were not only six corpses, Marvin's guards numbered almost forty, and almost fifteen of them were killed to protect their leader. Zelin thought that humans might have suffered a serious loss here, but after checking the corpses with Virginia, he found that this was not only a serious loss.

They were wiped out here.

"No, no." Virginia's voice reached Zelin's ears. "There are all guards here, and a few dead orcs!"

"No?"

"Yes! I didn't see it, you can come and take a look, it's too dark here, I can't see it clearly!"

Zelin took a deep breath, and the blood filled with the smell made him feel bad. He stood up, ready to go to the other side to see if there were any dead bodies. There was still a glimmer of hope in his heart that Marvin might still be alive as long as the body was not found.

But at this time, he noticed that beside the body of the guard beside him, there was a looming blood footprint, disappearing all the way to the south under the hillside not far away. The footprints are very small, and there are no rules at all, it is not like an orc or a wolf will stay.

"Virginia!"

"What's wrong?"

"Come to me, what I found."

The first thousand six hundred and eighty-two chapters Guru

Zelin didn't dare to think about the impact of Marvin's death here.

The leader of the Norn was attacked by the orcs and died in the territory of the Rohan. Zelin did not understand the relationship between the kingdoms of Middle-earth, but he knew that before he came here, if Ladovide V, who had secretly visited Tamoria, died in Vizima, then unless it was a southerner again Cross the Yaluga River, otherwise nothing can prevent the North from falling into a new round of civil war and division. Not to mention, compared with Nilfgard, who was safe and sound in the south, Nuo is located in the land of Mordor, surrounded by the Nuo Inner Sea and many orc tribes.

Losing a leader at this time, Norn may not be able to stop the attack of the orcs at all!

Saruman believes that the real target of the orcs is the dwarves. They may have reached the northern part of the Misty Mountains, preparing to ally with the human tribes loyal to Sauron in the Ruen area to attack the Lonely Mountain. But compared to the lonely mountain with sound fortifications and the humans of the valley city and the elves of the woodland kingdom as allies, the Norn, who was forced to retreat to the shoreline, was obviously vulnerable.

No matter where the orcs' main attack direction is, they have indeed begun to move!

The fine stones rolled down the hillside, the rocks on the hills blocked the moonlight, and the floating dark clouds left mottled shadows on the ground. It seemed that every piece of darkness and every corner might hide someone. But this has no effect on the demon hunter, the edges and corners of the rock and the boundaries of the ground are clearly visible in his pupils.

The footprints eventually disappeared between the two rock walls. Perhaps the blood stains on the boots are not enough to continue to leave marks. Zelin squatted down, trying to find valuable traces on the ground nearby. Even if the people who fled here fell and crawled away, they would crook the lawn under them, leaving a scratch.

"Does the trace end here?" Virginia trot to follow her from behind. She carefully maintained her balance so that she would not slide down on the sloping rock. "Need me to get some light out?"

"No, no need." Zelin pointed his eyes. "Your light will only make me unable to open my eyes. I can see the footprints."

Suddenly, a cold wolf howl appeared outside the hillside. The mage girl looked around vigilantly, wolves howling one after another, as if there was a wolf who was ready to pounce at any time lurking in any place.

"Zelin?" Virginia raised her staff, but no beasts appeared nearby. "Zelin, do you see where the enemy is?"

She didn't hear the demon hunter's response, Virginia turned around in surprise, but saw Zelin standing under a rock and beckoning her.

"What's the matter?" She walked down the **** in small steps and walked to Zelin's side. Ze Lin was standing in front of a low cave. The cave was very small. If he were an adult, he would have to bend down to get his head in. But in front of the cave, a rock blocked the entrance.

Zelin didn't speak, he reached out his finger and pointed down. Virginia lowered her eyes, and under the rock, she could vaguely see the overwhelmed weeds.

The demon hunter made a gesture to Virginia, and Virginia nodded knowingly. She crouched down and raised her wand to aim at the rock. Zelin put his hands on the rock, took a deep breath, exerted a little force, and the rock moved slightly with his movements.

Suddenly, a black figure rushed out like lightning, and it grinned and rushed towards Virginia. Perhaps a person who accidentally pushes away a rock will be caught off guard by such an attack, and no one can react immediately to block the rushing creature when they put their hands on the rock and apply force. It is a cunning creature, but this time, it chose the wrong target. The black shadow just jumped out, then flew back, slammed into the rock behind him, bounced back and fell to the ground. Sombra got up and tried to run, but Zelin kicked it fiercely, forcing it to shrink and kick it again, completely losing its resistance.

"Don't fight, don't fight." The pale little creature begged for mercy. "Don't hurt us, good people don't hurt poor us, we don't want to hurt people. You are like cats catching mice to destroy our good place to shelter us from wind and rain, grumble, we are so lonely, we are so pitiful."

"Shut up, don't pretend."

Zelin saw clearly what this thin creature looked like. It was pale all over, the big head attached to the slender neck turned around, and its big pale eyes almost occupied half of the head, and it kept looking around. It has no clothes all over, and its roughly human-shaped body is thin and as if only bones remain. No, to be precise, this creature is like a newly born baby, but it has been forcibly elongated to the size of a half-human. The fingernails on the fingers are full of cracks, and there is silt remaining in the cracks. Zelin can judge that this creature must often live in dark crypts, dig mud or catch fish in the river, and its fingernails have more than one. Broken once.

"We don't pretend, we are pitiful." The little creature opened his mouth, revealing his broken teeth. "Humans, good people, don’t kill us. We stay here, live, and avoid, there are half-orcs everywhere, hundreds of half-orcs, yes, I thought you were half-orcs, this is a misunderstanding, we all think it is. Misunderstanding, right, we?"

Its voice was hoarse and low, as if it hadn't spoken in a long time.

Zelin had never seen such a creature.

He and Virginia stared at each other, the latter shook his head, and the Mage girl had never seen or heard of similar creatures.
