A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

Chapter 47: (2)

Although they were curious about the story regarding the orc horde, it wouldnt be too late to hear it after following the old knights suggestion.

Yes. Lets all go inside.

As they entered behind the rocks and sat down in the open space, there was a bustling atmosphere.

Those who died

Thinking about the people who died futilely at the hands of monsters, he felt regrettable, but it was too late to regret it now.

They needed to plan and determine their direction for the future whenever they had even the slightest bit of leisure.

What did you mean by the orcs you mentioned earlier?

Oh, But Im not entirely sure if those were orcs.

What? Orcs are orcs. What do you mean by not being sure?

Seeing Uncle Jeffs surprised reaction, it seemed like he had some insight into the gray orcs.

Ah! Thats right! Their skin color was quite different from the orcs we know. They had gray skin. Ive never heard of such orcs before

Gray, you say.

Indeed, they had never heard of orcs with gray skin before.

However, it wasnt surprising that gray orcs appeared in this habitat overflowing with newly discovered monsters.

If theyre gray I wonder if their fangs were not shorter than the usual orcs, like the Red Orcs? And did they emit a strange odor?

Uncle Jeff, who was listening to the soldiers story, reacted with surprise.

It seemed like Uncle Jeff had some knowledge about gray orcs.

Oh! Thats right! Their fangs were almost half the length of a finger! And there was a strange smell!

Huh So, this is also their territory.

What on earth were those creatures that made Uncle Jeff sigh like that?

Uncle Jeff, are gray orcs dangerous?

Hmm, not exactly.

Then?

This was a piece of information known to only a few in the mercenary world. Those creatures are like monsters that dont resemble monsters. Their behavior is a bit, no, quite peculiar.

Different skin color from regular orcs and peculiar behavior. The more he heard about them, the more curious he became.

So, about those creatures

I wonder if those creatures are called Elf-orcs?

Huh Elf-orcs?

Elves were a race with pointed ears that lived in the forest.

It was hard to understand why their names suddenly came up during the discussion about orcs.

No, sir. Please explain it to me so that I can understand. Elf-orcs? So what are those creatures? You say theyre peculiar.

They are indeed peculiar. They dont eat meat. I guess we could say they are non-carnivorous.

Monsters that dont eat meat? Then what do they eat?

Monsters that dont engage in carnivorous behavior.

Vegetables or maybe fruits?

Excuse me?

To think that there were herbivorous monsters. He couldnt believe this.

For the first time, Kaiyan had doubts about Uncle Jeffs words being true. Quite strong doubts, in fact.

Dont look at me like that. Im telling the truth.

Its true. Elf-orcs are real monsters.

After Uncle Jeff, even the senior knight said so, leaving Kaiyan with no choice but to believe that gray orc creatures were indeed herbivorous monsters.

So, about those creatures

Wait! Do you remember which direction the gray orcs went?

?

As the conversation was interrupted for the second time, Kaiyans curiosity was piqued by the senior knights urgent expression.

Ah Yes. They went that way. I saw it with other soldiers.

When the soldier who first spoke pointed in a certain direction with his hand, the other soldiers listening from behind nodded.

Hehe, thats lucky.

Are you happy that those creatures appeared?

The senior knight, who had a dark expression since Tarien disappeared, suddenly burst into laughter.

Its a great thing. If we follow the direction they moved, we can safely reach where Tarien is!

Is that really true? But what evidence do we have?

What could be the connection between orcs and Tarien? Could it be that the senior knight had gone mad?

He had heard that when people are under extreme stress, their sanity can collapse. Just like when he first flew in the sky.

If the senior knight had indeed lost his mind, he needed to be restrained before causing any trouble.

Hmm? Why do you look at me like that?

Huh? Oh well So, whats the connection between orcs and the commander?

Swoosh.

Take a look at this.

The senior knight took out a small steel plate, about half the size of a palm, from his pocket and handed it to Kaiyan.

Whats this?

This is an artifact that shows the direction where Tarien is. I am confident that we can rescue Tarien with this.

So theres something like that.

He thought they had entered the canyon aimlessly, but it wasnt the case. Since even the senior knight had a trustworthy side, there was a possibility of rescuing Tarien.

But what does that have to do with the orcs?

The direction the orcs disappeared in and the direction the artifact is pointing to are the same. And the path taken by the elf-orcs is one that other monsters dont tread on. Isnt that right, Centurion Jeff?

As the senior knight sought agreement, Uncle Jeff nodded.

Yes, thats correct. Its also the reason why those creatures can survive against other monsters despite their weak combat capabilities.

Whats the reason?

The way to survive in their habitat with weak combat capabilities. And why other monsters dont use the path they take.

To satisfy his curiosity, Uncle Jeff began to speak.

Its because those creatures use poison.

Poison But its not that big of a deal, is it?

There are countless monsters that possess poison. However, not all creatures with poison have a high survival rate.

Most monsters have a high resistance to poison, unlike humans, and especially large monsters have such strong resistance that they can ignore most poisons.

If it were just any poison, you would be right. However, the poison used by those creatures is very unique.

What kind of?

The poison they use emits a foul smell.

Huh?

A foul smell. If it truly possessed such a function, could it be called poison?

And because of that, monsters avoid them. Of course, its not a hundred percent accurate; Ive only heard about it.

What kind of ability does an orc have to emit such a foul smell? Well, its ironic for herbivorous monsters to have that ability in the first place.

After the conversation ended, there was a moment of silence.

Orcs emitting a foul smell. Would it be safe to follow them?

Hehe, now that the conversation is over, lets depart before its too late. If we go too far, it will be difficult to track their trail.

Upon the senior knights proclamation, the knights and soldiers who were taking a break all stood up.

This time, we must rescue Commander Tarien.

With those words, the senior knight took the lead and hurriedly descended the rocky mountain.

Ha I really hope Tarien is safe.

The mission to rescue Tarien of the 7th Special Unit had begun once again.
