Don't look at the orcs are more irritable and not good at waiting patiently, but there are many skaters among them, and you can see those orcs who are doing figure skating one by one and quickly sliding to the opposite shore to know that they are obviously very good at moving on the ice.

It's just that if it were normal ice, they would probably be able to slide to the opposite shore very smoothly and directly attack the human troops on the wooden bridge from behind. Unfortunately, the ice here is not normal at all.

As more and more orcs rushed into the ice of the river, faint cracks began to emerge from the depths of the ice.

When the load-bearing on the ice reached a certain limit, there was a bang, and the ice in the middle of the river broke suddenly, and the orcs who slid on the ice were of course caught off guard and fell directly into the icy river.

This time the rupture was very sudden, and the ice, which had looked thick, broke directly and strangely. Moreover, this ice break spreads very quickly.

From the first crack in the center of the river appeared, in just two or three seconds, the ice of the entire river channel was all broken into pieces of broken ice floating on the surface of the water under the gaze of the orc legion.

And the orcs who rushed into the river in high spirits did not have time to return to the shore in the face of the suddenly broken ice, and were swallowed by the icy water. Under the impact of the crushed ice, stimulated by the icy water, none of the orcs who rushed into the river were able to return from the river unharmed.

The ice on this river has been specially processed by Zhuang Xiaoyuan and them from the beginning. For three days, the ice on the river was crushing and condensing.

The ice on the surface of the river was deliberately smashed, and a layer of water was poured on the ice to wait for condensation. Crack again after condensation, then water, and then break again. After being broken and re-condensed, the ice on the surface of the river has long been covered with countless cracks.

In addition, to avoid poor preparation, the ice sets too quickly to be easily fractured. In the upper reaches of this frozen river, Zhuang Xiaoyuan also specially arranged for people to store water, cutting off half of the water flow.

After the official start of this martial god festival, these people who stored water gradually began to let go of the restricted river water. Under the impact of the undercurrent at the bottom of the ice, the already cracked ice layer is even more fragile. And these orcs became the last straw that crushed this ice.

"Give them the order to prepare to retreat at the right time, and lead me to the pit with all those angry orcs." Witnessing a large number of orcs being swallowed by the icy water in the river, Zhuang Xiaoyuan's face did not show the slightest look of joy at all.

Even if many orcs died in the icy river, the number of orcs left is still very large for humans. As it stands, humanity still has no chance of winning.

Therefore, after using that river to lure the orcs and eliminate some of the living combat power, the next step is to make persistent efforts to destroy the remaining orcs. And the act of devouring the orcs with the river just now also provoked the anger of the orcs very well.

It's a more impulsive race, and after the anger burns the brain, it won't think carefully about the next situation. And this is just enough for Zhuang Xiaoyuan and them to use the power of the next field to let these orcs die here.

"Everyone retreats backwards into the next area. Wu Dongqiu, your team stays behind. ”

After receiving the flag from the base camp, the captain who commanded most of the casualties to continue to resist the orcs immediately ordered his lieutenant to break off, while he took the remaining dozens of people who had not yet participated in the battle, and prepared to retreat to the next area.

"Leave it to us, Captain. We will not let these orcs go any further until you are safely retreated. Fearlessly, he met the angry attack of the orc in front of him, and the adjutant who was called Wu Dongqiu by the captain showed a happy smile on his face, not caring at all about the fact that he was abandoned.

"Let's go." One last glance at the backs of the warriors facing the orcs, the captain turned around and rushed towards the next area with the remaining dozens of people.

Their mission is not easy, and they must get there before the orcs break through. If you can't bring all these orcs into the next area, it will be even more difficult to win or lose this Martial God Sacrifice.

"Roar, kill." With a roar, the huge chopping knife in his hand mercilessly slashed through the body of a human soldier, and after the human soldier was directly slashed into a faint light and disappeared into the air, the orc was the first to break through the human defense line on the wooden bridge.

"Kill."

"Roar~"

A roar of orc rage came from the other two wooden bridges, almost in no particular order, and the three wooden bridges were all broken through by these orc legions after resisting for a while.

After the wooden bridge was completely occupied by the orcs, these orcs also began to rely on their strong physical fitness, quickly crossed the wooden bridge, and rushed towards the other side of the river. And the orcs who rushed across the wooden bridge first chased after the human soldiers who had just retreated at the first moment.

In the chase one after the other, the orcs quickly caught up with the retreating soldiers in front. By this time, the soldiers had almost arrived at their destination. Before a huge crater in ice.

"Roar, die."

"Kill."

Not paying any attention to the huge ice crater in front of them, after noticing the human soldiers stopping to flee, the orcs who chased after them immediately roared and killed them.

In the face of the orc's attack, these retreating soldiers also roared angrily and waved their blades. Even in the face of orcs who were much stronger than themselves, these soldiers had no fear, they did not fear pain, they did not fear death.

There is no pain that can surpass the despair of that year, and even after that despair, what is there for them to fear. With the protection of the Valkyries, their lives will only get better and better in the future.

And now, all that needs to be done is to get through this final crisis. Only by surviving the immediate crisis will they be able to see a bright, hopeful future. They're not fighting for others, they're fighting for themselves, they're fighting for their future.

Boom, the vanguard of the orcs and the retreating force of the humans collided fiercely. All of a sudden, flesh and blood flew and shone brightly. In the first place, the human soldiers were directly reduced by more than half.

And they didn't die in vain, the damage of the orc soldiers was basically the same as theirs. To be able to kill these orcs who are much stronger than themselves in exchange for one is already something to be proud of.

However, the battle did not end directly after the first blow, and after the first onslaught, the vanguard of the orcs and these retreating forces of the humans became entangled again, and the casualties began to rise rapidly.
