Chapter 621 Sneak Attack and Counter-Sneak Attack (Please subscribe, please bookmark, please vote)
Although James felt that Ryan's arrangement was a little strange, and he was not quite sure what their specific tactics were, as a native of the world of Faerun, he had already engraved the rule of obeying the orders of the mage or paladin in battle into his bones. So he did not continue to ask, but quietly completed his task according to the orders given by Ryan and his team.

As the night deepened, the four figures (three big and one small) in front of the campfire moved less and less, as if they were asleep. Around three or four in the morning, a dark figure sneaked into the camp, but when the dark figure was seven or eight meters away from the campfire, a transparent barrier appeared in front of him, and he could not break through the barrier no matter what.

The principle of this magic of Peaceful Guarding was very different from the local magic. As one of the few wanderers among the orcs, this shadow found that all the methods of removing magic traps he had learned before were ineffective in front of this magic.

After three crow calls, one long and two short, four other shadows came from the forest outside and came behind him. After a few seconds of brief discussion, one of them took out a scroll from his arms and released the magic in it towards the magic defense in front of him. Instantly, a beam of lightning hit the defense magic, and then the entire defense magic was shattered.

At the same time, five or six crossbows were shot from several tents around them, heading straight for the shadows. At the same time, the figure sitting in front of the fire started to shine brightly, and several prepared spells flew towards the orc wanderers. The five orc wanderers were killed by the fire before they could react.

"Woo." Suddenly a horn sounded, and more than 20 elite orcs in armor rushed towards the camp in three directions. The whites of their eyes were filled with bloodshot. But just as they rushed to the fire, the four figures around the fire suddenly fell forward into the fire, and the flames suddenly turned green and exploded.

In an instant, green flames burned on the bodies of more than 20 elite orc warriors. The flames spread rapidly and turned them into green torches in just a few seconds. After their bodies were set on fire, these orcs ran around screaming, and then fell down one after another.

The scene in front of him seemed to stimulate something. A huge noise came from the jungle, followed by an earth-shaking roar.

"Three warning spells have been triggered in a row. The enemy is coming so fast." Ryan, who was lying in ambush nearby, was moved. Hearing the sound of the approaching quickly, the harpist James' face changed and he said quickly. "This should be Obould himself chasing us. The group of armored orcs we just killed were his personal guards."

"It seems that he has discovered that the siege camp is all fake." Ryan raised his eyebrows. He had set up many traps in the engineering camp under the orc stronghold before, and indeed fooled the orcs who were besieged in the stronghold. However, those traps should not have much effect on a master-level orc berserker like Obould, and he has now discovered that he has been deceived.

"Hermione, have you found the location of the shaman?" Ryan asked through the Phoenix Mark. When the group of elite orcs rushed in just now, Ryan felt that they should be blessed with positive spiritual power magic. The orc tribe is famous for its warriors, and there are not many spellcasters. The only ones who can come with the chief guard and have command power are the shamans.

Considering that these 20 orcs were the chief's elite guards, it was easy for them to infer that their chief Obould went to the siege camp alone, and the remaining guards, led by the shaman, tried to attack Ryan and his men. However, they did not expect that Ryan and his men had set up a double trap in the camp, trapping all 20 elite warriors at once.

Unlike the violent tempers of ordinary orcs, the shamans of the tribe are often cunning and sly. For example, after the attack failed, this shaman knew that if he ran away at this time, he would be exposed to the firepower range of Ryan and his men, so he quietly hid and waited to join the chief to launch a counterattack against Ryan and his men.

Ryan certainly couldn't allow him and the chief to meet and cause trouble for him. Fortunately, after studying the power of death, Hermione became extremely sensitive to the life around her, and she soon sensed the shaman's location from the surrounding environment.

"In the pine tree on the left, he's now turned into an owl and is watching us." Hermione said through the Phoenix Brand, "This Transfiguration is close to our Animagus, and most people really can't tell that they are wrong. But this shaman probably doesn't know that we deal with owls all day long. I thought this owl was a little stiff at first glance, and after careful inspection, it turned out to be a human soul."

This is why a shaman would reveal such a flaw. If it were a druid, this problem would never happen. Now that the enemy's position has been determined, Ryan first contacted Rose Quartz, and then, with the cover of Hermione, shot a steel spike inlaid with opal with an instant death effect. The shaman who turned into an owl to get away with it did not expect that a wizard would actually use such a physical method to attack, and was caught off guard and hit directly in the chest by the steel spike. As a shaman, even though he is already a high-level spellcaster, his physical fitness is not very strong, especially after turning into an owl, he is even more vulnerable. After being hit by the steel spike, the instant death magic on the steel spike was triggered and he died on the spot, and then he recovered and fell from the tree.

At this moment, the voice in the distance came closer. With a crackling sound, a two-meter-tall orc broke through the surrounding bushes and stood on the clearing in the forest that was previously used as a campsite.

"You despicable guys, are you the ones who killed so many of my subordinates? Go to hell!" The orc chieftain rushed forward and launched an attack after seeing Ryan and the others.

Hermione took a step forward, waved her hand, and formed a shield made of black mist in front of her to block the flaming sword in the orc chief's hand. However, the black mist shield was shattered into pieces like glass in the strong airflow brought by the sword.

"There are actually humanoid creatures that can reach this level purely through their physical bodies." Hermione conveyed her surprise through the Phoenix Mark, and then she waved her hand and threw out a palm-sized obsidian statue.

After being thrown out, the obsidian statue continued to expand and soon became a 12-foot-tall giant. However, unlike the giant specimen when it was made into a death puppet, this giant puppet was completely modified after Hermione got two death claw puppets from Ryan.

Now the giant puppet has six arms. In addition to the original giant's own arms, there are a pair of four death claws on the shoulders and ribs. The original fat on the body has also turned into muscles as hard as death claws.

This giant puppet is inlaid with a layer of Valyrian steel armor, and each of its two original hands holds a mace.

The fully armed troll immediately curbed the orc chief's crazy attack after it appeared. At the same time, Ryan and his men took advantage of the orc chief's stop to launch an attack.

However, no matter the plasma balls, black mist arrows, crystal fragments or ranger's feather arrows, they all lost their effect. After the smoke caused by magic dissipated, the orc king was unharmed. An invisible barrier flowed through his body, blocking all the attacks just now.

This is the characteristic of the warriors in this world. High-level warriors can resist some low-level spells, and the orc chieftain in front of him, as a master-level warrior, can even withstand the frontal fireball explosion.

"It seems that I have to use my real ability now." Ryan thought and summoned the Rose Mother, then activated the power inside. The others tried their best to entangle the orc chieftain to buy time for Ryan to cast the spell.
