There should be several ways of doing that.

I'm telling you one of them.

CODE

variable = 0 //Name this variable as you like.
variable = ceil(random(4)) //variable's value will get random, the max it can be is 4.
if variable = 1 sound_play(sound1) //name sound1 as the name of the Link attack sound.
if variable = 2 sound_play(sound2)
if variable = 3 sound_play(sound3)
if variable = 4 sound_play(sound4)

This doesn't include any really advanced coding. Don't forget to change the variable name and the sounds' names.

PS: I just wrote this from scratch, not sure if it'll work, but it should do so.

Why not just use the "choose()" event like so:

CODE

choose(sound1,sound2,sound3,sound4)

It is basic but MUCH simpler.
