Chapter 7 Selection

The maid took the candlestick and took Link upstairs into the room. The facilities of the single room were very simple, with only one table, one chair, one bed and one cabinet.

After lighting the candles on the table, the maid left first.

Link sat on the bed, which was not much different from his own bed. They were all wooden beds, which were very hard. The quilt on the bed was warm from the sun.

Not long after, the maid brought the meal, and the ninety-eight silver coins and eighty-five copper coins for change were also on the plate. The purchasing power of gold coins was still very high.

Link picked up the knife and fork, cut a piece of meat and ate it, and his mouth was filled with meat to bring the fragrance.

After Link finished eating, he sat down and rested for a while. The maid knocked on the door and came in again. This time the maid brought a bottle of water and began to clean up the tableware. Link counted five copper coins and gave it to the maid as a tip.

"Thank you." The maid who received the tip asked, "Do you need other services tonight?"

There are also maids who fail to work part-time in the tavern in Link's hometown. They know a little bit about this industry. Link doesn't want to make himself too tired, so he is here to rest. Link, who shook his hand, rejected the maid's suggestion.

After blowing out the candle, Link lay on the bed and began to use the Dou Qi breathing method, recovered and practiced Dou Qi, and fell asleep unknowingly.

In the early morning, Link was awakened by the sound of the rapid knocking of the gong. Link had not taken off his clothes and slept with a long knife and a garment. After waking up, he immediately took the knife out and saw a panicked maid downstairs: "What's going on? Why do you beat the gong?"

Maid: "It is said that there are monsters to attack the town."

The town has no city walls at all. If there is a city wall, it is called a city. If there is no city wall, it is called a town. In order to resist monsters, the town only built a shoulder-length wooden fence outside the town. The function of this fence is actually not to resist monsters, but to prevent domestic poultry and livestock from running out of the town.

Link can only be glad that he didn't put his strength on women last night. Now he has enough energy, and he can beat and run. In fact, when the maid offered special services last night, Link was a little moved, but Link's sister-in-law is a beauty. She usually sees many people. If she sees many people, she thinks that she can't be much worse than her sister-in-law.

In short, Link is a good-looking party member. The maid last night was not good-looking enough. If a big beauty asked the same question, Link's choice would probably be different.

Link pushed the door out of the tavern, and the heads were shaking on the street. It seemed that many people had already begun to run away. Some men also took weapons such as guns, sticks, and even hoes to gather near the town fence. It seemed that they were preparing to resist the attack of the monsters.

The tavern is not far from the town gate. Here, under the dawn of dawn, Link also saw the monsters, because the monsters were too tall, each of them two or three meters high, and there were forty or fifty. Before he could come over, he could feel the tremor of the earth as the ogres walked.

It should be from the same tribe as the ogre I encountered on the road yesterday.

A middle-aged man shouted at the entrance of the town: "There are too many ogres, so you can't stay inside. You have to send someone out to restrain the ogres."

It was just my wish, but Link thought that Link didn't want to fight street battles with the ogres. There were too many buildings in the town and mostly brick and wood structures. Ogres could get weapons to throw or wave them at any time.

When you arrive on the flat ground outside, the ogre will enter a stage of empty hand as long as you throw the wooden stick or stone in your hand in anger. Of course, the ogre can kill people with empty hand. But at least there is no ranged attack.

Although the middle-aged man who was talking said so, he did not intend to leave the town. For him, the fence of the town might still have some effect. If he went outside, if he was surrounded by dozens of ogres, he would probably be torn to pieces and eaten immediately.

Link and a few people pulled out the fence and ran towards the ogre.

Of course, everyone would not do such a thing as a direct person with dozens of ogres, and Link would not. The six people who went out were divided into two groups, and three were circling the left and right wings of the ogres.

Faced with the harassment of these people, in the eyes of the ogre, the ogre leader roared a few times, and a group of ogres divided into six ogres, dealing with the six people in the town.

The ogre is tall and has a big stride, and walks about as fast as a human. Moreover, the ogre will also run for a short range and charge. Generally, the ogre will use the acceleration of the running and charge at the critical moment of hunting.

The middle-aged man in the town saw the ogres split his troops and continued to shout: "The ogres split their troops, continue to go out and lead the ogres away."

However, not many people responded this time, and most of the people who were confident in themselves were the adventurers. The first group had already gone out, and the second time four people jumped out and pulled away four ogres.

But even so, the number of ogres attacking the town dropped from about fifty to forty.

The middle-aged man shouted twice, but no one responded. At this time, the ogres were dozens of meters away from the fence of the town and began to attack the town. A row of stones hit him, smashing dozens of gaps in the wooden fence. There were still several stones that remained unchanged after smashing the fence, and directly smashed the defensive militia behind the fence to death and injured.

Hearing the wailing sounds in the town, Link couldn't help but be satisfied with his choice and fight against a group of ogres and an ogre. It seems that many people can't understand this principle.

Of course, if there are too many people leaving the town, the ogre tribe may turn collectively, but this situation should be good news for the elderly, weak, women and children in the town.

After the ogres attacking the town threw a wave of stone rain, they quickly approached the fence and demolished the fences outside the town, each ogre had a big stick in their hands.

In the middle, militias were also organized to shoot arrows in the town, but the ogres who were hit by three or four arrows and thick skin said that this attack was like itchy. Faced with the shooting of bows and arrows in the town, more than twenty ogres who had broken the fences threw out the big wooden sticks in their hands and knocked over a dozen militias to the ground. The remaining uninjured militias were unwilling to throw the wooden sticks here, and they turned around to flee, and the militias in the defense were dispersed.

The first wave of defense defeat by the town militia organization.

Link and others outside have already led away the ogres responsible for pursuing themselves, and they have formed a one-on-one situation with the ogres.

Link had already killed ogres yesterday and had a rough understanding of the trick of one-on-one with ogres, which is to keep running around the ogres. Even if the ogres throw remotely, hitting mobile targets is much more difficult than fixed targets.
