Chapter 1793 This brave man begins to attack (I’m so lazy and don’t want to get up)

Everything is ready.

The Beast King Academy seemed very peaceful under the night sky. Even the number of soldiers who were originally on guard here was reduced. This was understandable. After all, the Beast King took away most of the soldiers, leaving only a few guards. The current security level of the academy was even lower than usual.

But for the students here, they don't think there is anything wrong. After all, this place has always been peaceful and there have never been any problems.

That’s why everyone was startled when the thunderous roar occurred.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Sid jumped up from the floor, ran to the window regardless of his aching body, and looked around. At the same time, the lights in the dormitory of the academy, which had been in deep sleep, gradually lit up. Many orcs poked their heads out to look outside in confusion, but found nothing.

"Hello? What's going on?"

"I do not know!"

"Where are the guards? What happened?"

More and more students woke up from their sleep, and some shouted for the guards to investigate the situation. However, just as Sid was about to go find the young lady, he suddenly heard a roar not far away, and felt the ground under his feet seemed to be shaking slightly.

What happened? Was it an earthquake?

Sid looked outside again, and then his eyes widened in surprise.

Under the moonlight, Sid saw a huge rock rolling down the hillside behind the academy. It looked as big as a small house. Although it seemed to be moving slowly, it was actually incredibly fast. Sid didn't even have time to shout and alert everyone before the huge rock hit the dormitory building on the other side of the academy.

"No! Missy!"

Seeing this scene, Sid screamed, and at the same time, other people around him also exclaimed and screamed. Sid turned around, rushed out of the barn where he was, and rushed to the dormitory building that was hit at the fastest speed.

The original three-story house had now collapsed by more than half. When Sid arrived, he could hear wailing, roaring, and shouting from all around. The big rock was stuck in the middle, and the whole building was smashed crooked. Many orcs were tumbling and crawling out of it, and some were shouting for help.

"Miss! Miss!"

Sid rushed into the dilapidated dormitory building in panic, and ran towards the eldest lady's room according to his memory. He rushed up the crooked stairs without hesitation, and pushed open the second door at the end of the corridor.

"Miss, are you okay?"

"Sid..."

A faint sound came, and when Sid heard it, he looked over and saw that the eldest lady was being crushed under the collapsed bookshelf. She raised her head and stared at Sid with an uneasy look on her face.

"Miss! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I just can't get out... Can you help me?"

"Of course. Wait a moment."

Sid stretched out his hand and tried to lift the heavy bookshelf, but it was not an easy task for him. But even so, the boy still gritted his teeth, put his shoulders on the bookshelf, and pushed it up with force.

However, the bookshelf was so heavy that even if Sid tried his best, he could hardly move it.

"Sid, go call someone, you can't do it alone!"

"No, there's no time, miss, this place is about to collapse!"

Sid could sense that the cracks in the surrounding walls were widening, and although he thought that calling other orcs for help was the best option, it seemed that it would be too late for him to leave.

“I will definitely save you…!! Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

With a roar, Sid pushed again, and this time the heavy bookshelf was gradually lifted up, revealing a gap. The young lady also hurriedly used her hands and feet to crawl out of the gap. Seeing that the young lady was safe and sound, Sid felt that the little strength that had been condensed in his body also dissipated. He breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed backwards, and the heavy bookshelf fell towards Sid again.

"Sid!"

At this moment, Sid heard the eldest lady's cry, and then he felt someone grabbed him and picked him up. The wind whistled past his ears, accompanied by the sound of breaking glass. At this moment, Sid realized that the eldest lady had carried him through the glass, jumped out of the building, and landed steadily on the ground.

Almost at the same time, behind them, the three-story house that could not bear the weight made a loud noise and collapsed completely.

"No-----!"

"Oh my god, what on earth is going on!?"

Sid stood firmly on the ground and could hear screams coming from all around. He turned around and saw many embarrassed orcs standing around, looking at the scene in front of them in confusion. In fact, no one knew what happened, why the stone suddenly rolled down from the mountain, and why it hit the dormitory building of the academy. There was no sign of all this, so Sid's head was still buzzing.

"Are you okay, Sid?"

The gentle voice of the eldest lady in his ears made Sid regain some of his sanity. He looked at the furry, familiar and cute face in front of him and spoke.

"It's okay, Miss, you......"

A flash of red light flashed.

Sid had no idea what was going on.

At this moment, time seemed to slow down in Sid's eyes. He saw the red light coming from the side and piercing through the young lady's body. Warm blood flew towards him and hit Sid's face.

When Sid came to his senses, he only felt the warm blood on his face and the sticky, disgusting touch. He lowered his head and saw that the young lady who was smiling at him just now was now lying in front of him, with most of its body gone, leaving only a piece of burnt black flesh.

Ah, this is just like what I saw in the kitchen, those novice chefs failed to cook human meat...

Sid watched this scene indifferently, but what emerged in his mind was such a feeling that had nothing to do with the current situation. Perhaps he still hadn't reacted to what happened, or perhaps his brain refused to accept the situation in front of him.

However, this was not the end, because soon, screams were heard from all directions.

"Whoa!"

"What's going on? Attack! We're under attack!"

“Where are the guards? Why… Aaaaaaaaah!!”

Hearing the screams, Sid raised his head and looked around. Only then did he realize that the orcs around him were running away. Red beams of light shot out from the city wall and hit them. These beams were everywhere. Many orcs were killed directly before they even had time to dodge. However, some orcs were resisting the attack and trying to retreat.

"Everyone be careful! Gather together, let's fight our way out!"

The one who loudly commanded the attackers was a sturdy orc. Cid knew him. He was the student council president of the school. He was leading several orc subordinates, waving shields in their hands, blocking the beams while loudly commanding the survivors. His shouting naturally attracted attention, and soon several red beams shot towards him. The orc raised his shield to block, but this time, Cid saw that the heavy shield in his hand turned bright red under the bombardment of the beam, and then completely evaporated. Then, without any obstruction, the beam ruthlessly penetrated his body, turning this huge orc into black charcoal. Cid didn't know what would happen. He just instinctively lay on the ground and trembled. The same was true for the other human slaves who were driven here to dig and rescue. They didn't know what happened, or why it happened. They just hid here, silent, silent, and trembling.

After an unknown amount of time, the strange whooshing sound disappeared, and then the originally dark surroundings suddenly became bright. Sid looked up and was shocked.

I saw that on the originally dark school wall, a large group of people appeared at some point. Most of them held long pipes, and some held torches. They were all wearing black leather armor, covered in cloaks, and stared at this side silently.

What, what's going on? Who are these people?

Just when Sid was confused, he saw a tall, terrifying devil-like being appearing from behind these men in black.

"Well done."

Duanmu Huai looked at the scene in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and looked at the man beside him.

"You have also learned to draw inferences from one instance, which is good."

"Thank you, sir."

"You're welcome. I'm also very happy that you can grow up."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand and laughed. He was indeed very happy. This plan was proposed by a former human slave who had served an orc here before, so he was very familiar with the terrain and environment here. So he proposed a plan, which was to blow up a huge rock on the mountain at night, and then let it roll down to cause damage to the school, disguised as a natural disaster.

In this case, the orcs would definitely come to help or watch the fun, and they could take advantage of that time to sneak into the school and capture all the orcs in one fell swoop.

Now it seems that this strategy is quite good.

After all, if it is disguised as an accident, most orcs will not be wary and will just think that something happened accidentally and they want to help, so the chances of catching them all in one fell swoop will be very high.

"Okay, let's go cut off the heads of these guys and prepare the ingredients. The pampered young lady will definitely taste better."

"Yes, my lord."

The man lowered his head and gestured to the others, who quickly came down from the wall and began to shoot the fallen orcs and cut off their heads. As for the human slaves, they were driven aside.

“I didn’t expect them to do this…”

Looking at the humans who were harvesting orcs, Listarte had a very complicated feeling. She used to think that these people were just poor, enslaved ordinary people.

But what about now?

What are they doing now?

"They are warriors."

Duanmu Huai seemed to have guessed the doubts in Listarte's heart.

"Humanity doesn't need heroes. Humanity will fight for itself as long as someone can tell them that. Kneeling down in despair and begging for heroes to come when encountering danger is the act of a fool. A true warrior should fight for the victory of mankind with his own life... Hmm?"

At this moment, there was a sudden noise not far away. Duanmu Huai turned around and saw a young man struggling with a soldier.

"Let her go!"

"What are you going to do? She's an orc!"

"what happened?"

Duanmu Huai looked over there and asked, and the soldier quickly turned to look at Duanmu Huai.

"Report to the Lord, we were planning to collect the orc's head, but he stopped us..."

“How could you do this!?”

The boy clenched his hands in anger and glared at them.

"The eldest lady is a good person, why did you want to kill her! She has always cared about me and taken care of me... Why, what on earth do you want to do?"

"…………………"

Hearing this, the soldiers turned their heads and looked at the young man, who was crying.

"The eldest lady has always hoped to improve the relationship between humans and orcs, and she has been working hard for this. Why, why did you want to kill her... It was obviously the humans who enslaved the orcs and abused them, which led to the counterattack. But even so, the eldest lady told me that it happened before we were born and we should not be held responsible for it. She said that she would work hard to mediate the relationship between humans and orcs so that everyone can coexist peacefully and the orcs will no longer treat humans as slaves and food... But... But..."

Duanmu Huai walked up to him and stared at the young man in front of him.

After a moment, he spoke.

"I believe what you say, but it doesn't make any sense."

"Hey?"

"I believe there are good orcs."

Duanmu Huai's voice rang out and echoed in everyone's ears. The soldiers seemed quite surprised, but out of trust in Duanmu Huai, they continued to listen.

"I am sure there will be orcs who desire to live in peace with humans, just as you said, but it is meaningless."

"Why, why......"

"Because they can't live in peace with humans forever. Maybe after one or two hundred years, their descendants will attack again and try to enslave and exterminate humans. So, even if they maintain this idea, it's meaningless."

"But, but, as long as we try to understand each other......"

“Mutual understanding cannot solve future problems.”

Duanmu Huai interrupted the boy's explanation.

"But completely eliminating the orcs can completely solve this problem."

"…………………"

Duanmu Huai did not look at the distraught young man again, but turned around and gave orders to the soldiers around him.

"Sympathy for the heretical ideas of aliens is not allowed. Execute him."

"Yes."
