Chapter 96 Those Goblins Should Not Be Strong ( words)

Realizing that something was wrong, Irwin pulled the reins tightly. The warhorse under him neighed in fear, raised its front hooves high, and shook its huge head left and right in pain. If it were a person with poor horse skills, he would probably be thrown off the horse on the spot.

When the other soldiers saw the deputy captain suddenly stop moving, they also braked. Some of the fast-running recruits almost lost their balance and nearly fell to the ground.

"Deputy Captain Irwin, what's going on?"

It is a big taboo to suddenly stop while marching at full speed. If such a change happens while tens of thousands of soldiers are on the march, it is likely to cause a terrible stampede.

There must be a very important reason why Vice Captain Irwin did this. An old soldier realized that something was wrong and felt uneasy, so he stepped forward to ask.

"Something's not right with those goblins."

"Not only are they driving carriages, but there are also red and blue variants. They are most likely new monsters created by the demon god after the fallen sacrificed their souls!"

Irwin calmed his horse and looked at the goblins advancing in the distance. His eyes were full of anger and worry, and he even clenched his teeth when he spoke.

Upon hearing this, the old soldier also looked intently into the distance. On the busy plain, the figures of the goblins were a little blurry. If you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to see anything unusual.

"It's really a mutant..." The old soldier frowned, his tone full of shock.

The monsters created by the devil are completely beyond common sense, but without exception they are several times stronger than their original races, and the higher the level of the sacrificer, the more terrifying the change will be.

Hehehe!
So that’s it, that’s it!
No wonder the Silver Team disappeared inexplicably.

As professional adventurers, those guys are all experienced and masters at dealing with monsters. They often hunt on the outskirts of the forest and know where the dangerous places are and where they are safe, so it is unlikely that they will make any mistakes.

However, if mutant goblins created by the devil appeared in the forest, then everything would make sense. The Silver Team would be completely unable to guard against such monsters that were beyond common sense.

That old guy Toheti actually concealed such an important thing, putting all the adventurers and townspeople in invisible danger. Is he crazy?
After careful consideration, Irwin realized something fishy and became furious.

The damn Toheti President is far away in the imperial capital and created such a mess. He then lets the soldiers take the blame. This is really too much.

The safety of the residents is actually not important. What Irvin cares more about is that if the group of goblins in front of him are really the culprits who killed the three silver teams, then their strength is not something he and the soldiers behind him can deal with.

Damn!

It's completely over now!

To be able to kill the Silver Team, there must be two mutant goblins with a strength of level 20. With the few soldiers they brought, they cannot be killed at all.

However, even if there are Fallen, they should not be too powerful in this remote area. Creating two level 20 goblins should be the limit, right?
Irwin quickly analyzed the current situation and came to the same idea as President Toheti had at first.

After all, Ivan Town and Qiming Town are located in remote areas and are poor and mountainous. It is hard to imagine that there would be high-level fallen people willing to target these places.

The two level 20 goblins were the highest strength he could judge and imagine.

If they fight to the death with a monster like this, and with the cooperation of the Fallen, they can indeed kill the Silver Team.

Although the quality of the kingdom soldiers he brought with him was not as strong as that of the Silver Squad, they were numerous. If he used the human wave tactic, he might be able to slow down their pace.

There should still be hope of winning once the captain brings more people to support us.

Irwin was in deep thought. He dismounted from his horse and said solemnly to the old soldier in front of him, "I will lead the soldiers to slow down the goblins first."

"You ride on this fast horse and hurry back to the sentry post. Have the scouts sound the alarm immediately and request the captain to lead troops for support."

The situation is urgent. Once the alarm bells ring, the news of the monster invasion will certainly not be hidden, and the scandal will spread throughout the world.

The only thing these soldiers can do is to concentrate all their strength to kill these monsters and the corrupt people behind the scenes and save the face of the empire as much as possible.

Facing a mutant monster that could kill the Silver Team, it was impossible to say that he was not afraid. Irvin's thoughts were more of comfort, and he was actually very uncertain.

But at this point, there is no other way to go except to fight bravely.

Even if they were really defeated and died at the hands of monsters, the kingdom's high-ranking officials might give their families martyr treatment on the basis of their heroic fighting. This would be much better than taking the blame, becoming deserters and then being executed.

"I understand, Captain..."

Seeing Irwin's gloomy expression, the old soldier realized the seriousness of the matter. After replying in the same serious and low voice, he did not dare to delay for a moment. He took the reins, mounted the horse, and turned back towards the town.

"soldiers!"

"When you fight the monster later, you must remember the strategies you learned during training. Attack in turns and pay attention to the rhythm. Don't confront it head-on!"

"Our mission is just to hold back the monsters and wait for the captain to come to support us!"

Irwin solemnly warned every recruit that when facing a life-and-death battlefield for the first time, these passionate young people are the most unstable factor who are most likely to make mistakes.

The kingdom has been mired in a comfortable life for a long time, the high-ranking officials are lacking in virtue, and the military is slack, so sharpening the swords before the battle is truly a helpless move.

"Roger that!"

Noticing that the deputy captain was a little depressed, the veterans looked solemn. Even the recruits who were originally in high spirits couldn't help but become nervous at this moment.

Most passionate young people are like this, with lofty aspirations, but when they really go to the battlefield, they all lose their confidence.

Irwin did everything he could, and after giving warnings and instructions, he led the team forward on foot.

……

Completely different from the other team, Paris rode a warhorse and led a group of soldiers to charge across the grassland. As they were all busy on their way, no one noticed the goblins' abnormality from a distance.

Of course, they couldn't be blamed for being careless. After all, the observers had reported in advance that the invading monsters were goblins.

Who would think such a low-level monster is threatening?

Moreover, not every soldier has the excellent eyesight like the old soldier in Irvin's team, who can pay attention to the specific situation of the goblins in the distance while rushing.

Paris is a carefree and flamboyant person. At this moment, he is celebrating excitedly with the recruits, completely immersed in the passion of hunting monsters!
"My goddess!"

"These goblins are actually driving carriages?"

When he was fifty meters away from the goblins, Paris finally discovered something strange. Not only did these goblins look strange, but he didn't even know where they got the carriages from!

A carload of goblins?

Can these monsters have such wisdom?
Paris realized something was wrong, but it was too late. The horse was still galloping and the soldiers behind him were also moving at full speed.

If they braked suddenly at this moment, their formation would immediately become scattered and they would lose the opportunity to charge at the goblins.

So stopping now would be a dead end, we must rush forward in one go!

"soldiers!"

"Something is wrong with these goblins. Don't linger in a fight. Charge over quickly and stop the carriage. Then use the tactics you learned in training and start a protracted battle!"

Paris acted decisively, issued orders to the soldiers, then cracked the whip and led the entire team to charge towards the goblins at the fastest speed.

[Hehehehe!] [Those humans are finally here, Brother Hanbing, it’s up to you!]

In the front right, Paris led dozens of soldiers to charge. The sound of horse hooves, footsteps and shouts was like the thunder of war drums, with astonishing power.

Faced with such a terrifying posture, the lustful goblin was not nervous at all, and his tone was full of teasing, as if this group of menacing people were just a group of noisy "toy rubber soldiers" in his eyes.

The Ice Goblin stood up from the carriage, his abdomen sunken and his chest puffed out. After taking a deep breath, he exhaled a cloud of white ice mist forward.

"Damn it!"

"What the hell is this!"

The biting icy fog hit his face, Paris' pupils constricted, his heart trembled, and he quickly pulled out the shield on the side of the saddle to block.

This blue goblin can actually spit ice!
This is a variant created by the devil!

The cold air had no substance and penetrated every pore. The shield had little effect in blocking it. A layer of frost instantly formed on Paris's armor, and his uncovered face felt waves of intense pain.

The situation with the warhorse was even worse.

As it was only wearing a saddle, it was almost completely exposed in the thick cold fog. Without any protection for its limbs, it immediately lost consciousness in the bone-chilling cold, let out a painful neigh, and fell to the ground. Paris was also thrown out.

Frostbite was already extremely painful, and after falling heavily to the ground, when Paris stood up again, his left arm was broken and his face was covered with blood-red abrasions and dark purple frostbite.

The icy fog was so thick that it covered an area of ​​more than 30 meters. The soldiers following closely behind the war horses also suffered varying degrees of frostbite, their bodies became stiff, and their hands and feet became numb.

The veterans were the ones rushing in the front. Fortunately, they reacted in time and dodged in advance, so they avoided the tragedy of falling and breaking bones like Paris.

【Jie jie jie! 】

Easily dealing with the aggressive stormtroopers, the lustful goblin drove his carriage in a swaggering manner and flashed past Paris, while still making faces and grinning mockingly.

【Jie jie jie! 】

The Fire Goblin followed closely behind, grinning and mocking, and then ran away, its rapid steps raising a trail of dust.

"Damn, these damn monsters!"

Paris covered his severely injured and painful left arm and watched the lustful goblin leave in a cool manner. Looking at the arrogant face full of ridicule, he was already extremely angry in his heart, and now the evil fire goblin swaggered past him again.

This blatant humiliation almost caused internal injuries to this veteran who had been in the army for ten years.

damn it!
What kind of shameless and depraved person can create such a despicable alien monster!

"Deputy Captain, how are you?" An old soldier quickly ran to Paris.

Paris took out a bandage and used his hands and mouth to wrap his left arm tightly, with a ferocious expression: "Even with a broken arm, you can still continue to fight."

"That goblin can spit out ice. It is definitely an alien species created by the Fallen. We are afraid..." The old soldier looked frightened and was interrupted viciously by Paris before he could finish his words.

"What? Do you still dare to be a deserter?"

If a soldier becomes a deserter, not only will he be wanted, but his family will also be implicated and killed. Naturally, the old soldier did not dare to admit that he was afraid of fighting and kept shaking his head to deny it.

"How can it be!"

"We are the glorious soldiers of the kingdom. How can we escape from the battle?"

"It's just that the monsters created by the Fallen are completely beyond common sense and are very powerful. I think we should make a strategic retreat first."

"Go ask for support from the sergeant!"

Paris frowned and stared into the distance with a melancholy look on his angry face.

Strategic retreat?

He didn't want to.

Although asking for reinforcements would be the wisest option when facing a formidable enemy, doing so now would be a sure death.

Those goblins rushed straight towards the town. By the time they completed their strategic retreat and called the sergeant for rescue, Irwin Town would have been destroyed beyond recognition.

At that time, their behavior of running down the town to ask for reinforcements would never be understood by anyone and would be destined to be executed to appease the public anger.

The only thing they can do now is to continue fighting fearlessly.

But there is good news right now.

Even though he had just fallen off his horse and was injured, the goblins did not take advantage of the situation to attack him. Instead, they ran straight towards the town, obviously trying to avoid a fight.

They did this probably because they were afraid that if they got into a fight with them, it would waste a lot of time and attract more attention from the kingdom's army.

It seems that the mastermind behind these monsters does not have the confidence to let his men go into full-scale war with the kingdom's army, so he lets the monsters go straight to the town to quickly loot supplies.

Paris came to a conclusion in his mind regarding the lustful goblin's "blitzkrieg" behavior of not killing him.

Although those goblins are mutants created by the Fallen and have strange abilities, their actual strength should not be strong, at least not enough to fight against the entire kingdom army of Alvin Town.

Therefore, requesting reinforcements now is a dead end. Only by working together to encircle and annihilate these monsters can there be a glimmer of hope of survival!
Paris hesitated for a moment, thinking clearly about the current situation, then shook his head and ordered the veteran: "It's too late to request reinforcements now!"

"Hurry up and organize the team and continue to stop the goblins from entering the city. This is the only way to survive!"

The old soldier had a complicated look in his eyes, with deep worry on his face. Military orders were like mountains, and he did not dare to refuse. He could only notify others to pack up their equipment and continue the attack.

Even the deputy captain was injured, and the recruits' limbs were numb and cold. They were all listless and no longer excited. Instead, they were filled with nervousness.

Why is it completely different from what I imagined?
We are soldiers of the glorious kingdom, how could we not defeat a group of goblins?

These naive little guys don’t know much about the Fallen, and until now they haven’t realized what a terrifying group of enemies they are facing.

……

In front.

The Lustful Goblin was still galloping towards Irwin Town when he encountered the Irwin troops intercepting him from the side.

However, unlike Paris who was caught off guard, Irving had already noticed the goblin's abnormality, so he did not choose to attack rashly.

He was lying in ambush on the side of the road. When he saw the Lustful Goblin approaching, he shouted to the soldiers: "The time has come, release the magic!"
