Chapter 595 Victory and Spoils of War
Head Commander Bodley and Head Commander Markham continued their battle, but by that point, victory was already leaning towards their side.
The two head commanders corresponded with each other seamlessly. One guarded, and one attacked. The 4 bearman of the same rank were fully suppressed.
“Charge!” Head Commander Bodley didn’t even remember how many times he had unleashed a charge today. Another powerful force struck upon the shield of the bearman. This strike landed on the exact same area as his last strike. In a flash, the metal shield shattered into two.
His fire enchanted combat qi gushed out from his knight sword and slashed upon the shieldless bearman. That metal shield was the bearman’s strongest defense, so by that point, it was fully exposed. In a scream of agony, a big cut opened up on the bearman.
The other 3 bearman heard their teammate’s screaming and simultaneously realized the fight on the other side had ended. All the wolf riders had dropped dead. Dead bodies were everywhere. The only one standing was a Wizard holding a long sword right and a magic staff on his left, looking extremely alert.
“Retreat!” A bearman yelled. Looking at the current condition, it would be suicidal if they continued.
The 3 bearman unleashed all their force and knocked away the 2 Head Commanders with their battle axes. Then, they nudged their grey bears to retreat to the forest behind them. They knew as soon as they could reach the forest, they would be safe.
However, the moment they began to turn, 3 arrows flew towards their heads. Bang bang bang! The 3 bearman dropped from their grey bears. The arrows on their heads were extremely eye-catching.
Head Commander Bodley and Head Commander Markham exchanged a gaze and an awkward smile. This hurt their self esteem. Killing one bearman was already an extremely glorious accomplishment, and the 2 Head Commanders could not have achieved it without their weapons.
However, those 3 arrows had directly killed this powerful enemy in a flash. The Head Commanders had no choice but to laugh awkwardly. They were just starting to get excited for killing a bearman, but now their self esteem was hurt.
“K3516 is too strong!” Head Commander Markham sighed.
“Yeah, I wonder who he is?” Head Commander Bodley was very intrigued by Abel’s true identity. Which big family’s offspring could have such power at such a young age? What special status he had. He thought about all the possibilities, yet he couldn’t figure it out.
It was not that he never heard of the name Abel, but Abel was only known for his powerful summons in the human world. Head Commander Bodley did not think a Grandmaster Blacksmith could kill a full team of wolf riders with a magic staff and a light sword in a thousand years, not to mention that archery skill.
Any one of those fighting skills would take up all the time and energy from a person, but Abel had mastered all of them. He was an out of the world genius.
“Who cares? I’m just happy he is our teammate. It seems like k3308 is quite good with him!” A gentle smile emerged from the cold face of Head Commander Markham.
“Yeah, who cares. He is not our enemy, anyway!” Head Commander Bodley also laughed.
At that moment, Abel put away his Harry Bow and walked towards that 10 meters high combat qi smoke where the dead body of that head wolf rider captain lay.
He scanned the body with his power of the will and spotted a portal object just like he had expected. It was another Kong Kong Spirit Portal bag, so he immediately snatched it. He then scanned the bag with his power of the will. It was a little bit small, only around 80 square meters, but there were large amounts of ingredients and magic gems inside.
Magic gems were useless to priests, so their value was not high in the orc empire. However, they could be used as an exchange currency in underground markets. Every ingredient here was unique to the orc empire. They were all extremely precious in the human world.
“These greedy businessmen!” Abel mumbled to himself in anger.
Abel did not feel pity when he saw those tens of thousands of Pecker orcs throwing their lives away at the Miracle Wall for food. Instead he felt a chill running down his spine.
If there was no Miracle wall, those tens of thousands of Pecker Orcs that needed to get cleared out by the Orc Empire every 2 to 3 months would not be dead. Instead, they would be fighting with the humans on a battlefield.
That’s why Abel did not have sympathy for the orcs. This was a race war to the death. Although Abel didn’t know what forces were keeping this war at a controllable level, he knew the orcs would not give up easily.
“K3516, I’m so glad you joined the mission with us!” K3305 said with gratitude. At that moment, he and the others had already jumped down from the rock.
Abel had wiped out a team of 100 orcs without a single injury. It was hard to believe.
Abel nodded to k3305. The reason he had joined this mission was to repay the favor he owed k3305. k3305 knew this, so he did not even mention anything in exchange. The most important thing to a Wizard was not materialistic things, but relationships. K3305 had really owed Abel a big favor this time. Giving out wealth was easy for him, but repaying such a big favor might be a challenge.
“K3516, are those mount wolves all listening to you?” Asked k3308 with a gentle voice and an admiring look.
“Yes, I have a special ability; all mount wolves will listen to me!” Abel simply explained.
“Hmm, can I buy a mount wolf off you?” K3308 said with a face full of yearning.
“These are our rewards, let’s wait for the 2 Head Commanders to come back, and we will divide them!” Said Abel with a smile.
“Can we really divide them?” said k3308 in excitement. He then looked towards head commander Markham who was running at them and yelled, “Markham, quick. We can all have mount wolves!”
“K3308, those are like master wizard k3516’s spoils of war. You and I don’t have the right to have them!” Head Commander Markham arrived by k3308’s side and lowered his voice.
“One, I only want one mount wolf!”k3308 mumbled to Head Commander Markham in a pitiful tone. He kept looking back at Abel. He might as well say it to Abel’s face than Head Commander Markham.
“How about this, I actually do have use for these Mount Wolves, but all of you can pick one. I can help you force them to declare you as it’s owner!” Said Abel with a smile. He then waved his Kong Kong spirit portal bag and little and continued, “I still have a lot of spoils of war here. I’ve already taken the ingredients. You guys can have the magic gems!”
At that moment, Head Commander Bodley also came back. He was just in time to hear what Abel had said. There were 50 mount wolves being controlled by Abel. It was such a large amount of wealth, but it didn’t belong to him nor anyone on the spot.
On top of that, everyone was saved from those vicious orcs by Abel’s scary fighting power. They didn’t deserve to take any of these spoils of war.
“Mr. Wizard k3516, these are all your spoils of war. It’s the rule of the battlefield!” Said head Commander Bodley in a certain tone.
Since Abel had presented a powerful fighting power, and both head commander Markham and Bodley had addressed him with a respectable title.
K3308 lowered his head with a sigh and gaze towards those mount wolves. They were the best mounts. He thought he could bring one home after one more year. If he did, everyone in his family would get jealous to death.
“K3308, I lack a bit of those little skulls from priests and bone made portal objects. If you have some, I’ll exchange a mount wolf with you!” Said Abel with a smile.
Abel had so many mount wolves, so he couldn’t care less if he gave out one or two. He needed to cultivate these things for a few years anyway since Abel was after their offsprings. Only their offsprings could be the truest mounts.
Those mount wolves were already adults; there was no way they could correspond perfectly with the fighting style of a knight if Abel just directly gave one out. On top of that, it was a lot harder to make an adult mount wolf learn a new skill than a young one.
“Really? But I only have them back in Miracle City. Can I give them to you when we get back?” K3308 said in excitement.
