Chapter 931: Sudden transformation
With the flame breaths picking them off, the number of orcs started to decrease.
It was only a matter of time before there were only a few orcs that were surrounding the king.
All of them looked like they didn’t know what to do and the only reason that they hadn’t run off was because they had seen what had happened to those that ran off. They knew that there was nothing to gain from acting rashly like the others had done.
There was no loyalty in their actions at all, they didn’t feel this kind of loyalty to the Orc King. They only cared about their own lives.
However, that didn’t mean that they had all the time in the world to keep stalling like this.
They were surrounded in flames and the flames kept approaching them since everything in the camp was flammable. The camp was made of sticks and stones and those sticks burned quite well since this was a dry area in the first place.
Even if they were variant orcs and had resistant hide, that didn’t mean that they would be able to stand in the flames forever.
The Orc King hadn’t done anything this entire time because it was standing over where the crystal was.
With the way that it closed its eyes and ignored everything, it was as if it didn’t care what was happening to the orcs that were around it.
All of a sudden, the eyes of the Orc King opened and it let out a roar.
This roar seemed to shake the entire area around it with how powerful it was.
At the same time, there were black lines that appeared on the skin of the Orc King. It was as if there was some kind of strange energy filling the Orc King’s body that was corrupting it.
This strange energy also made the body of the Orc King swell up.
It was like the muscles of the Orc King were about to burst with how they were swelling. With this sudden change, the Orc King had grown to one and half times its normal size. At the same time, it had turned into a burst of muscles.
All of the orcs that had been around it couldn’t help being pushed back by the Orc King’s sudden change.
They didn’t do anything even though the Orc King had suddenly changed like this and just looked at the Orc King in a daze, but that didn’t mean that the Orc King remained idle.
The Orc King suddenly grabbed two of the orcs that were beside it by the head and then looked up into the sky.
Klein and the others were surprised to see the Orc King looking up at them like this, but they found that the Orc King was looking at two specific wyverns.
These were the ones that were the closest to the ground.
Lifting up the two orcs in its hands, the Orc King suddenly swung its hands with the two orcs in them at the two wyverns.
In the middle of its swing, the Orc King suddenly released the two orcs in its hands and sent the two orcs flying through the air at the wyverns that were flying there.
The two wyverns and the two riders that were on the wyverns were all caught off guard by the sudden actions of the Orc King. But that didn’t mean that they didn’t have a way to deal with this sudden attack.
The two wyverns just reached out with their claws and caught these orcs that had been thrown into the air.
Holding these orcs in their claws, they didn’t hesitate to rip them apart.
The orcs still weren’t able to react in time since they never expected the Orc King to throw them like this.
So they weren’t even able to put up a fight as they were ripped in half by the wyverns.
The Orc King didn’t seem to stop as it grabbed two more orcs around it.
The orcs had been in a daze since they never expected the Orc King to grab them like this and they weren’t able to do a single thing. They could only let the Orc King just throw them like this at the wyverns.
The wyverns were considered S Rank for a reason.
It didn’t matter which ore the Orc King threw into the air, they were able to grab them and rip them apart.
The orcs just had aggrieved looks on their faces as they died, as if they didn’t think that they deserved this death.
After these four orcs were thrown into the air, the other orcs started to run in all directions. They didn’t even bother attacking the Orc King since they knew that they wouldn’t be able to win.
So they didn’t care that they were surrounded by the flames like this and started running in all directions.
Klein immediately reacted to this as he split up the wyverns.
Half of them were shooting their flame breaths at the orcs that were running away and the other half were shooting their flame breaths at the Orc King.
The Orc King had grabbed two more orcs before they were able to get far away from it, but the Orc King didn’t throw these two orcs at the wyverns. Instead, it swung the orcs in its hands at the plumes of flames that were coming at it.
It was using the orcs that had been its subordinates as orc shields against these flame breaths.
The orcs had strong skin and even stronger bones, so the Orc King was able to block the flame breaths with them. Though the burns on the bodies of these orcs used as shields made it clear that they were no longer alive.
At this point, they were nothing more than tools used by the Orc King to block these flame
breaths.
It seemed that this Orc King was harder to deal with than they thought, but that didn’t mean that they couldn’t deal with it.
Simply put, they had the advantage of being able to fly in the air.
