With Kevin's shout, they all started to move; Robert and Kevin to the golem and Lenus and Selena in their invisibility cloaks to the gate.
Kevin's confrontation with the golem was started by a punch from the stone giant, and Kevin defended himself by using the blade of the sword and deflecting the punch. The next move was Robert's sledgehammer, which swung in the air and caused Robert's arm to spin, intending to destroy the golem's left leg. Immediately after the impact, the golem was pushed back and a thin crack appeared on its thick and stone leg. Golem fell on his knees but held himself up with his hand so that he wouldn't fall to the ground.
Seizing the opportunity, Lenus and Selena sidestepped the golem before it slowly but briskly got up to face several packs of orcs. To be sure, they took a glimpse of their robes and headgear and went towards the orcs.
When the sound of Kevin's sword hitting the golem's hands and the special resonance that Robert made with his hammer reached Selena's ears, it made her heart calm and strong; Although they were in a dangerous situation, their trust and belief in each other strengthened their hearts and their morale increased.
Lenus gestured to Selena to caution and advised that they should take the path where there were less orcs. Both of them hit the blackness of the night and passed through the orcs, while they were far from the bloodshot eyes and ugly faces of the orc warriors who were watching the scene of the battle.
After a little navigation, they reached near the gate, but the guards stationed there were more than Lenus and Selena expected. With this situation, they looked at each other. It was there that Selena suddenly noticed Lenus' fearful state.
The boy wizard was trembling; Not only at that time, but all the time, he was trembling and the shadow of fear and death fell on him. From the beginning of this mission, a sense beyond his mind and body was conveying a message to him; The same warning messages that said death will overtake you soon.
Lenus did not deny and reject his vague feelings irrationally, like many others, and was always far-sighted and cautious; Therefore, he showed himself against accepting this duty. Although Lenus needed the money for this mission more than all of them, he was not willing to take such a big risk. Nevertheless, he finally joined the party, but without being blinded by power and wealth like others.
Selena, who was now holding Lenus's hands tightly, was not very willing to participate in this dangerous mission, but the competition with her sister, Aisa, forced her to do so.
In a few seconds, Selena made a plan in her mind and conveyed it to Lenus with a gesture. Lenus concentrated his attention more than before and prepared; Selena was supposed to attract the orcs' attention with the divine bell so that Lenus could destroy the gate.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
To this end, Selena distanced herself from the gate and Lenus until they were 15 meters apart, then she suddenly took her golden staff in both hands and immediately after her robe fell to the ground, she muttered under her breath: "O Great Belenus, With your heavenly call and your all-pervading voice, deafen and blind these faithless foreigners!"
When the invocation was finished, a crack was created in the sky and a large golden bell came out along with a series of white and golden lights and went down until it was near the surface of the earth, that is, right above the orcs' heads. Then a piece of light with a divine aura embedded in the bell began to move and hit the walls around it. The huge and terrible waves of a terrible sound began to spread in the area and made all the orcs to cover their ears and start to cry at the intensity of the suffocating sound on the ground.
All the creatures present in the castle area were affected by the sound waves except humans, which included Selena, Lenus, Kevin and Robert. However, this did not put enough pressure on the giant golem to knock him down.
Seizing the opportunity, Lenus quickly pulled out a magic scroll from his bag and scratched his thumb with his teeth, then opened the scroll and rubbed a bloody finger against the magic sheet as the scroll hovered in the air. After that, he immediately threw it towards the goal.
As his gaze followed the flying scroll, he saw an orc who, despite the deafening noise coming at him, had a spear in his hand and pointed it at the scroll. Before Lenus could react, the orc dropped his spear off balance. The spear split the air with a howl, but only hit one corner of the scroll, causing it to veer off course.
Lenus, who was horrified, aimed his staff at the orc who was standing on top of the wall, but when he wanted to shoot his fireball, the wall next to the gate that the orc was standing on exploded; The scroll, which was supposed to destroy the gate, had changed its direction and destroyed the wall next to it.
When the dust caused by the explosion gradually disappeared, a wall was revealed, most of which had collapsed, and a hole the size of a person had been created between it and the gate, which could collapse further at any moment.
Having been knocked down by the blast wave, Lenus stood up, took off his sorcerer's broad hat and looked at the ruined wall. The mission was not completed victoriously, but it was not completely defeated either. If that bad luck had not happened, maybe the best possible result would have happened now.
Without hesitation, as he finished his brief analysis of the situation, he ran towards Selena, taking out the barricade orcs on the way with his fireballs. When he reached Selena, they fought back to back and both of them were protected by the Sun God's shield.
"What should we do now? The gate was not completely destroyed and the orcs surrounded us."
“Like Kevin said we should get closer to the rocks,” Lenus answered still panting. Don't worry about the orcs either, we can get rid of them with a few muddy swamps, the problem is their spearmen."
While the two of them were talking, the orcs were frantically hitting the light shield and putting more sweat on Selena's tender and white face.
Lenus, who was relieved of his task of destroying the gate, breathed in and out and said with enthusiasm that had overcome his fear for the time being: "Let's go, you protect my back and I will destroy the orcs."
