Chapter 7 Spine Sword

They were not allowed to take action in Dusk Wind City. They followed the orc all the way through the crowd. Zhou Mingyi held Zana's hand, and he felt that the soft little hand he held was trembling.

The orcs left Duskwind City, braved the scorching sun, and walked under a sand dune, where a pickup truck was parked.

He opened the car door and sat in. There was a gloomy-looking man sitting in the driver's seat of the car.

"Did you get the things?" the gloomy man asked.

"Yeah." The orc snorted and took off the sword from his back.

This sword is completely silver-white, with a straight blade and rows of bone spurs arranged on the blade, which is sharp and penetrating.

"I have to say that Craftsman Rob's craftsmanship is very exquisite, and the enchantment effect is very good. I even felt the resentment in it when I held it." The orc said.

"Is this the only sword that can be made from an elf's body?" the gloomy man asked.

"The remaining part was left to him as a reward. Hehe, it's not like you don't know about Rob's quirks. However, there wasn't much left that could be used when he bought it back. He couldn't give him that tattered body. It's nothing," the orc said, hanging the Spine Sword back on his back.

"With this, I might be able to survive in the future."

"We can only blame ourselves for being unlucky and getting the most terrible job." The gloomy man said, "There are only forty people to stop the pursuit of Osius's knights. They just want us to be used as expendables."

"I heard that Tianshu also sent people to participate in the escort operation." The orcs roared in their throats, "I hope it's not the Beast Soul Army. I ran into them last time in Huule, and their weapons were all sacrificed to the beasts." The soul has a natural suppression on us orcs."

His huge body trembled slightly, as if he recalled something terrible.

"Damn, I get goosebumps just thinking about them. How about we go to Kohler's bar for another drink?"

"Okay, it's time to go back. We have to do a review of the action drill today." The gloomy man inserted the car key and started the pickup truck.

There was a sudden sound and the pickup truck bounced violently.

"What happened?" The gloomy man stuck his head outside.

"Fuck, it's a flat tire."

He opened the car door and got out of the car with a curse. He had just moved a tire out of the pickup truck when he suddenly felt something hit his legs hard, causing him to fall directly onto his back and the tire in his hand flew out.

When he endured the severe pain and stood up to look at his thigh, his pupils shrank to the maximum, and then he saw that he had been slapped by something.

It was a rusty ax that had cut off his right leg and was now stuck in the leg bone of his left leg.

Just as he was about to scream, a foot suddenly flew up and kicked him on the head. His head hit the car hard, and he felt that his vision was blurry and his head was buzzing.

"what happened?"

The movement in the car caused the orc in the car to poke his head out, but the outside was covered with yellow sand, and even his companions were nowhere to be seen.

He immediately pulled out the spine sword from his back, put his other hand on the gun at his waist, opened the car door and got out.

When he got off the car and came to the other side, he only saw his companion lying on the ground with his legs broken and blood flowing all over the ground.

"!"

Before he could react, a figure emerged from the bottom of the pickup truck, swung an ax and slashed into the orc's chest.

The orc roared in pain, swung the spine sword in his hand and slashed at the opponent.

But his body suddenly felt as if it was being held by an invisible big hand, and he could not move any part of his body. When he was restrained, the other party had already flown up, raised his foot and stepped on the axe. The axe was directly connected with the ax handle. It sank into his chest, and blood and bones burst out.

Blood spurted out from the orc's mouth and nose, and his eyes instantly turned blood red. Relying on the orc's body, he endured the pain, leaned back and stabbed the opponent with the spine sword in his hand.

A sword made from the spine of an elf. It contains huge resentment. When facing an enemy, it can cause the opponent's spirit to collapse in an instant.

The resentment that hit him locked onto Zhou Mingyi, and he immediately felt a despair that he had never experienced before, a despair that came to his soul.

Mentally under tremendous pressure, Zhou Mingyi used his last remaining consciousness to bite the tip of his tongue. The pain made him temporarily sober. He immediately stretched out his hand to hold the orc's sword hand in the air, and then twisted it with his backhand. The thick arm covered with animal hair bent 90 degrees in the opposite direction, and the sound of bones breaking was heard. The Spine Sword also fell out of his hand with a scream, and was snatched away by Zhou Mingyi.

He looked at the Spine Sword in his hand and felt a sense of joy.

Fortunately, the opponent was seriously injured before this. Enchanted equipment requires the user's own mental strength as support. When the orc is seriously injured, it can only forcibly exert the ability of the Spine Sword, and it cannot use its full strength. , coupled with the strengthening of his mental power brought by his command ability, he was able to block the resentment coming from the Spine Sword, otherwise he would not be able to escape this mental attack even if he bit his tongue to bits.

He stabilized his mind and took back his control.

Facing the orc who fell to the ground and screamed, he inserted the spine sword into the ground beside him.

"Do you know who we are? How dare you attack us!" the orc roared, covering his chest with blood gushing out.

"I know, Black Phoenix, I've been looking for you for a long time." Zhou Mingyi replied calmly.

The orc's expression was dull for a moment, and then he gritted his teeth and spit out one word: "Madman."

"I'm not as good as you guys."

Zhou Mingyi stretched out his hand to the orc, grasped it with his palm, and twisted his limbs one after another.

After ensuring that the other party was completely incapacitated, he planned to take out the firearm from his waist for interrogation.

But it came to nothing, and he found that the gun on his waist had disappeared at some point.

And this time, he heard a loaded figure coming from behind.

Looking back, he saw that the orc companion who had fallen to the ground had woken up. His eyes were fierce, and the pistol in his hand was Zhou Mingyi's.

"When did he take it away?" Zhou Mingyi's pupils narrowed.

The pistol was already pulled, and he used his last strength to pull the trigger on Zhou Mingyi.

However, the barrel of the gun did not fire, and a layer of frost quickly spread, freezing his entire arm.

Zhou Mingyi quickly stepped forward and stepped on his arm that was frozen into a popsicle.

The ice cracked, and his arm was shattered together. Zhou Mingyi picked up the pistol from the ice slag, and his frozen palm was still firmly stuck on it.

He forcefully tore off the hand that was holding it, pulled the bolt of the gun, and shot him in the head, ending his life.

Compared to the nausea and fear he felt when he first committed a murder, he no longer felt anything about it now. In this wretched place, if you go out to take out the trash, you will end up with two lives.

After dealing with this man, he noticed that the gloves on his frozen palms seemed not very simple.

Although it looks like an ordinary leather glove.

But there is a magic mark on it, indicating that it is an enchanted object.

In the game, enchantments can be equipped on characters to give them additional skills during battles.

Zhou Mingyi also recognized the glove in front of him now. It was called Stealer, and its ability was to steal the enchanted items or buff potions carried by the opponent with a certain probability during the game.

Reflecting reality, its ability is probably to steal items from others.

"It's a good thing." Zhou Mingyi patted off the ice shards on it and put away the gloves.

"Good job." He said to Zana who was standing not far away.

It was she who helped Zhou Mingyi freeze the opponent's movements just now.

At this time, Zana did not respond to his words. All she could see was the spine sword stuck on the ground.

She walked over with heavy steps, stretched out her trembling hand and stroked the skull at the hilt of the sword. Her strength seemed to be suddenly drained, and she fell to her knees, holding the sword in her spine and sobbing silently.

Zhou Mingyi came to the orc with broken limbs and watched its huge body fall to the ground gasping for air. His blood had soaked a large area of ​​sand under him.

He took out a bottle of potion from his clothes and poured it into his mouth full of blood.

The potion originally used to restore HP now has the effect of quickly recovering injuries.

After pouring in the potion, the dying beast regained consciousness, opened his eyes slightly, and looked at Zhou Mingyi.

"Ask you something."

Zhou Mingyi pulled out a dagger and rubbed the blade on his hair.

"I would like to know some details about your operation to kidnap Princess Osius next month."

The orc's pupils shrank, his face full of disbelief.

This operation is absolutely confidential within the organization. Except for those who participated in the operation, it is impossible for anyone else to know how this hybrid demon came to be.
  "You're surprised, aren't you?" Zhou Mingyi said to him, "I know more than that. You have a very high-ranking informant in Osius, right? Because of him, you can control the route and defense of the princess's activities that day. Rank, I remember, his surname seems to be Barim, and he is under the command of the head of the Knights, right?"

"Who are you?" the orc asked with a trembling voice.

Even he himself only knows a little bit about what he just said, and it is completely top secret in the organization.

The orcs felt a great chill. This time the plan was infiltrated without even realizing it.

"So you'd better stop playing tricks and tell me all the details you know about this operation." Zhou Mingyi said in a cold tone.

The orc gasped, gritted his teeth and growled at Zhou Mingyi: "Go and eat shit, you half-blood bastard!"

"Ha." Zhou Mingyi laughed.

"Do you know the most useful thing this crappy place taught me?"

He shook the dagger in his hand.

"That's how cruel it is."

Zhou Mingyi stabbed the dagger into the orc's abdomen, stirred it with his backhand, and various internal organs were pulled out by the blade.

The screams spread into the distance along with the yellow sand.

Zhou Mingyi pulled up the corners of his cloak and wiped the blood on his hands.

The orc in front of him was in a terrible state at this time, with only his last breath left.

The information he told is roughly the same as the plot in the game. The information that is not described in the game is also completed. For example, the candidates for the leaders of the troops who blocked Oshos from entering the country are not described in detail in the game. And now it is complemented by realistic details.

It seems that the world will indeed follow his plot step by step.

"Please, kill me." came the weak voice of the orc.

Zhou Mingyi turned around, loaded the pistol, patted Shana, who was still crying, and put the pistol in her hand.

Zana took the pistol, said nothing, with a low face, walked step by step to the dying orc, and raised the pistol towards him.

After a few gunshots, she emptied all the bullets. The orc's pupils rolled up and he was lifeless.

Zhou Mingyi stepped forward and wrapped the spine sword with his cloak.

"Let's go and find a place for her to rest."

Shana nodded slightly, returned the pistol to Zhou Mingyi, took the remains of her sister, and remained silent.

Zhou Mingyi searched their pickup truck. It was filled with ordinary objects, nothing worthy of attention. He poured the spare gasoline on the pickup truck, burned the truck and the two corpses together, and then took the yarn with him. Na drove away.

She didn't say another word along the way, and Zhou Mingyi drove the car to a cliff.

Zana dug a deep hole with a shovel and put the remains in it.

Looking at the shrunken skull on the hilt of the sword, her lips couldn't help trembling, and she couldn't help crying. The sound of sobbing gradually became louder, until finally her whole body was lying on the remains of the sword, crying bitterly, her cries echoing in the wasteland. echoed for a long, long time.
