Chapter 17: Throwing yourself into the net


It's a pity that orcs are difficult to tolerate in the empire, especially in the north.

Too many people died under the invasion of these greenskins.

The nobles may be okay, but the people at the bottom will never tolerate them living in their own land.

If Lorne didn't want to be ostracized by the masses, he had to draw a clear line between himself and the orcs.

Otherwise, he wouldn't need Meatball to go out of his way to change his appearance.

I looked up at the sky and saw that it was almost noon when I went out.

After experiencing an encounter and waiting for the meat ball to finish creating creatures, the sunlight began to gradually dim, and it would be time for dinner soon.

There might be an army of orcs nearby, and Lorne didn't dare to stay any longer.

It only took them about two hours on the way here, and it would take at least double the time to go back.

Because most of the war horses were either driven away by the wolf cavalry or scared away by Meat Ball, there were only two horses left around Lorne who could take his place.

The mobility was greatly weakened and thirteen horses were lost in one breath.

Lorne lost a huge fortune.

If a normal person lost so many horses, they would definitely search nearby.

Because the war horses that have been raised have a habit, they usually will not run very far without the control of their owners; and they will slowly gather together.

As long as you follow the general direction, it is not difficult to find them. .

Fast didn't understand this.

Naturally, Lorne also didn't understand this characteristic of the war horse.

Therefore, he embarked on the journey back with regret.

Fifteen knights were in high spirits when they set out, but only nine were left when they returned.

Although there were an extra orc and two wolves beside him, Lorne still felt that he had suffered a big loss.

Of course, the convoy that caused him heavy losses was secretly remembered by Lorne.

If he could meet the other person again, he would definitely pass on the pain that happened to him to the other person.

If I don't ask him for a huge mental damage fee, I won't be able to afford his dead men and lost horses.

Grant, who was attracted by Lorne, was also complaining a lot at this time.

In order to save money, the carriage he used was an old-fashioned goods that had been repaired over and over again.

It is not easy to keep running for a long distance, but a classic car is a classic car after all, even if Grant repairs it very seriously, it will still break down when it should break down.

Fortunately, Grant picked up a lot of war horses on the way here, and people carried them on the backs of horses, not letting go of any goods.

Abandoning the damaged truck and taking the remaining people and belongings with him, Grant continued to run for his life.

Having seen the orc army with his own eyes, he did not dare to stay here for a moment longer.

After picking up a large number of war horses and exquisite weapons and equipment, he could have returned the same way.

But the stingy Grant believed that since he came to the orc grassland, it would be a waste of his labor if he didn't empty the goods he brought.

As a result, if Lorne hadn't appeared, Grant suspected that he might have entered the orc's belly.

The frightened convoy could not slow down, and after traveling some distance, another carriage also broke its axle.

The cargo of the two carriages cannot be dislodged by horses alone.

Grant once again focused on those fleshy ladies.

Just as he was about to ask them to come down and walk, the guy next to him spoke.

"Big boss, look, there seems to be an outpost there.

We are saved."

Grant ran so fast that he didn't even carefully identify the direction.

Unknowingly, we arrived at the edge of the outpost.

It was truly an endless road.

Grant, who squinted his eyes and made too many calculations, had far less eyesight than his assistant.

After a while, he finally recognized the faint outline of the sentry in the distance.

In another place, Grant would not dare to rush to an unfamiliar guard post with so many things.

But he had heard about the sentry in the distance.

Grant, who specialized in doing business in this area, had done detailed intelligence work on some of the people in the nearby sentry.

One is to prevent encountering shady people, and the other is to worry about encountering buyers without money.

The sentry post in the distance belongs to the second category.

I slowly recall the legends about the owner of the sentry post: farmer, illegitimate son, country bumpkin and other derogatory names.

Grant thought he was well-informed and was still worried about being unable to handle a fledgling country bumpkin.

He directed his men to briefly repair the carriage, and the group turned around and headed towards the sentry position.

Looking at the jogging men around him, Lorne couldn't help but be secretly surprised that the natives of the other world were physically as good as monsters.

Although the strengthening of the meat balls was attributable to it, no one showed signs of exhaustion after running for several hours.

Moreover, he did not feel much hardship after riding the horse for several hours.

If it were on Earth, he would probably be exhausted after walking for an hour.

Relying on the amazing physical strength of his men, Lorne and the others rushed back to the post as soon as the sun went down.

But what was going on with the fire and the tent set up in front of his house?

From a distance, he noticed that the situation seemed to have changed.

Lorne did not choose to go up rashly after suffering the loss of the Wolf Cavalry.

Secretly observing from a distance, through the rising fire, Lorne discovered that the people under the sentry did not seem to be soldiers.

Because there are more unarmed women on the opposing team than armed men.

Moreover, the carriage parked nearby seemed familiar to Lorne the more he looked at it.

He already had a suspicion in his heart, but he could not determine the target.

Finally, a figure shouting loudly at the guard gate caught Lorne's attention.

Pointy mouth, monkey cheeks, vulgar and ugly, it is definitely the kind of appearance that no one can mistake after one glance.

"Hey, I delivered it to you."

He couldn't help but whisper happily, and Lorne began to assign tasks to Robert and the others.

"You will follow me in a while, and the others will spread out and surround them.

Remember, if anyone dares to resist, do not mention it."

After a pause, he added with conscience: "If no one resists, don't kill them."

Everyone is human, they just picked up their own things and accidentally cheated him.

If he could get compensation, Lorne didn't plan to go on a killing spree.

He stood up and took the strongest Robert to prepare for action, and the stupid scammers beside him also stood up.

Just thinking about dealing with those people who took advantage of him, Lorne almost forgot about the scammers and the giant wolf lying on the ground.

With the understanding of these three people, technical tasks such as enveloping and sneak attacks are obviously not suitable for them.

And it is unlikely that the opponent's team will have troubles that Lorn can't solve.

Besides, since they failed to enter the guard post, Lorn knew that the people he left behind were still inside.

Therefore, there was no need for scammers and giant wolves to take action in this operation.

They would only do bad things to him.

Lorne lowered his voice and danced with gestures for a long time, and finally made them understand what he meant, and they lay down on the grass obediently
