Chapter 97 These days, it’s hard to die! ( words)
Although the plain is vast, it is not completely flat and has ups and downs.

Irving noticed the goblins' abnormality in advance and led his soldiers to ambush at a slightly higher point on the left side of the road.

He ordered his two level 15 magicians to charge their energy and chant in advance, and when the lustful goblin was about to pass by in his carriage, he gave the order and launched the attack.

"The element of grass, the foundation of green, blessed in the name of the goddess, grow wildly!"

"Hard as rock, deep as earth, in the name of Mother Earth, mud and rock burst forth!"

On the high point, a large amount of magic power had gathered around the two magician soldiers. As the last introductory words ended, they slapped the ground at the same time, the grass bulged high, and the power of the elements continued to pass through the ground, quickly approaching the goblins.

Two elemental forces surged in, and the "grass element" came under the carriage with vigorous vitality, creating several thick and ferocious vines, which squirmed and surrounded the carriage in mid-air and then continued to tighten, trying to tear the carriage into pieces.

The lustful goblin was quick-witted and quick-handed. He untied the rope before the vines formed and dodged with a magic horse.

At the same time, another "earth element" with heavy power was about to approach the carriage. The ground trembled slightly, and a huge piece of mud and rock jumped out of the soil and smashed towards the carriage trapped by vines.

"If we can't kill the monsters, destroying the carriages will still be enough to slow them down."

The ambush was successful, and Irvin felt a little relieved.

A level 20 mutant goblin is impossible to kill with the abilities of two level 15 magicians.

But his original purpose was not to rely on magic attacks to deal with the goblins, but to destroy the carriage.

In his opinion, there were only two level 20 variants among these goblins. As long as the carriage was destroyed, their forward speed would be greatly limited, delaying more time for the captain's arrival.

The goblins were absolutely caught off guard by such an unexpected move.

At least Irwin thought there should be no problem.

After all, a full-strength attack from two level 15 magicians may not kill a level 20 goblin, but it should be able to destroy the carriage, right?

【This time, I will come. 】

Facing the hideous and crawling vines and the huge earth ball that was about to attack, the Swordsman Goblin picked up his [Exclusive Weapon] Dance of the Breeze, stood up calmly from the carriage, and swung two swords forward with a calm expression.

The magic power mixed and formed a cross-shaped sword energy, which broke through the air and easily cut the huge and powerful earth ball into four pieces, which then fell to the ground and smashed onto the green grass.

When Irving saw this scene, he froze.

Such a powerful earth element magic would be impossible to take on so easily even for a level 20 magic bear known for its strength!
As the strongest output, the magician's attack with full magic power is very terrifying. Even if the enemy is four or five levels higher than him, he can still be injured by surprise.

The previous performance of the Male Goblin is a very vivid example. Although it has a level advantage, it can kill two level 19 adventurers in an instant, which is more powerful than the Hellion Goblin at level 20.

Therefore, the earth element attack, which was like a giant lead shot, was easily cut open by the Swordsman Goblin like fruits, and the visual effect it brought was absolutely shocking.

No wonder Irwin was so shocked. The powerful strength of these goblin mutants seemed to be far beyond imagination!
Aren't they just level 20 monsters?

A very scary thought came to Irving's mind, and a chill instantly rushed down his spine to his brain.

However, the shocking scenes he saw were not limited to this.

After dealing with the earth ball, the Swordsman Goblin jumped off the carriage in an orderly manner. Then, while falling in the air, he raised his sword and swung it lightly, once again swinging out a few sword auras that were visible to the naked eye, easily cutting off several hideous vines that were thicker than a person's waist.

After the vines were destroyed, they turned into green light and dissipated into nothingness. The carriage lost its restraints and turned rapidly downward. The Swordsman Goblin landed lightly on the ground, then lifted up the carriage with one hand and placed it steadily on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Irving became more certain of his thoughts, and his hand holding the iron sword couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The previous judgment was wrong!
The strength of these goblins is definitely above level 20!
Moreover, his sword skills are so proficient that they even surpass most gold-level swordsmen!

Irving was numb.

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out why in this remote area, there would be fallen people who created such a terrible monster.

Moreover, since these monsters already have the strength to fight against gold-level adventurers, why would they still want to attack a small place like Alvin Town!
The neighboring Qiming Town and Huoguang Town have richer resources than Alvin Town. Wouldn’t the benefits of attacking these places be greater?
Irving felt that he was really unlucky to have encountered such a group of terrible monsters.

He now had an instinctive reaction in his heart.

escape!
This is a gold-level monster!

Even if the captain came here, there would not be enough people to be killed!
What the hell is this kingdom glory? It’s all bullshit. What is more important than staying alive?

The great panic caused Irving to fall into confusion for a moment.

He was about to issue an order for an emergency retreat, but before he could utter the first character, he was forced to hold it back.

No!

Can't escape!
Deserters will have their entire families executed!

Irving was covered in cold sweat. He suddenly thought of the military laws and realized that he had no way out. His eyes were filled with deep despair.

In order to protect the lives of his family, the only thing he can do now is to sacrifice himself bravely!

Oh shit!

Damn Toheti for hiding the information!

Damn monsters inexplicably invaded the town!

Damn the kingdom’s top brass for being negligent in military affairs!
Irving felt that he was extremely unlucky and wronged, and cursed everyone he could in his heart.

Faced with a powerful monster that he could not fight against, and a kingdom law that he could not resist, in despair and collapse, he chose to deal with the former.

"Magicians, continue to charge your energy to attack. Everyone else, form a formation and follow me to rush down and stop the monster!"

Since it's a dead end, then die gloriously!

With this thought in mind, Irwin held a shield in his left hand and raised his sword high in his right hand. He shouted loudly to numb himself and boost morale, then rushed down the slope with dozens of soldiers.

【Why are these humans so annoying! 】

The lustful goblin reconnected the magic horse to the car body, and then looked at the densely packed humans rushing towards him with an impatient look.

Why did the Lord order them not to take the initiative to attack?
and many more!

Is this a test?

The lustful goblin, who had been unable to resist taking action, suddenly realized something.

If you want to reach Alvin Town quickly, the fastest way is to kill all these humans who have been harassing you.

However, the Lord ordered them not to take the initiative to attack, allowing these humans to block the attack, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the mission.

With the Lord's unparalleled wisdom, every plan he made must have a profound meaning, and he definitely anticipated the current situation in advance.

Thinking of this, the lustful goblin suddenly realized!
It suddenly realized that this trip to Ivan Town was most likely an assessment specially arranged by the Lord.

The purpose is to test and train its teamwork ability, adaptability, and mission obedience with other goblins.

Absolutely!
The lustful goblin suddenly realized the good intentions of the lord, and felt a strong admiration for him. He made up his mind at that moment that he would never let the lord down!

Humans swarmed in, Swordsman Goblins raised their swords, and Fire Goblins rubbed their fists and prepared to launch a fierce massacre.

The lustful goblin had seen through everything and immediately stopped them: [Brother Evilfire, Brother Swordsman, don't be so hasty to attack, have you forgotten the Lord's instructions? ]

The Hellfire Goblin and the Swordsman Goblin turned back at the same time, looking confused: [What do you mean? ]

[Although the Lord said not to pay attention to these humans, they keep harassing us, which is really annoying! ]

[If you want to complete the task quickly, it is easiest to kill them. ]

The lustful goblin smiled foolishly, and shook his head with a smug look on his face: [Alas——] [You all don’t understand the good intentions of the lord! ]

[Think about it carefully. With your wisdom, could you not have thought that humans would harass us? ]

[Knowing that there are difficulties, he still told us not to care. The Lord must have a profound reason for doing this! ]

【This is a test for us! 】

[The purpose is to see if we can show our abilities and quickly reach Ivan Town despite the harassment from humans.]

[If the two of you kill all these humans now, you will fail the Lord's expectations and completely fail the assessment! ]

The Fire Goblin and the Swordsman Goblin were shocked when they heard this. They felt that what the Lustful Goblin said made a lot of sense and they immediately broke out in a sweat.

So that’s it!
It is not difficult to kill all these humans, but the most troublesome thing is to reach Alvin Town quickly while being harassed.

The lord is wise and intelligent, and he must have thought of this situation a long time ago. It is obvious that he is deliberately training their ability to respond to emergencies.

What a risk, what a risk!
They were impulsive just now and almost failed to live up to the lord's expectations. Fortunately, the lustful goblins realized the deeper meaning behind the mission in advance!

[Slutty Goblin, you are still smart! ]

The Fire Goblin lowered his fist and the Swordsman Goblin put away his sword, and they both showed expressions of admiration.

Even the Ice Goblin and the Male Goblin on the carriage were constantly sighing in their hearts at the lord's good intentions and blaming themselves for their own stupidity in not realizing it in advance.

At this time, Gu An was busy with TJ punishing Tia and Luca.

If he had also heard the opinion of the lustful goblin, he would probably have shown an expression of appreciation and affirmation, "That's a good reason, I'll say that from now on."

【Those annoying flies are coming! 】

[Swordsman Goblin, hurry up and get on the car. If you are surrounded by humans later, you will really fail this test! ]

The lustful goblin calmed the magic horse, held the reins, and was ready to set off at any time.

Having realized the "original intention of the mission" issued by the Lord, the Swordsman Goblin naturally made up his mind not to let this trial down.

It jumped up and nimbly got on the carriage, then urged: [Let’s go!]

The human was still ten meters away from the carriage. The lustful goblin flicked the reins, and the magic horse was whipped, and it immediately took big strides and charged forward bravely.

The Hellfire Goblin failed to get on the bus.

Old rules.

It's still running
Looking at their receding backs, Irving, who had already prepared for a life-and-death fight, was completely stunned.

?

What's up with these monsters?
Why didn't you counterattack and just run away?

Irving looked at the dust raised by the carriage, drew his sword and looked around in confusion.

Under normal circumstances, monsters would definitely be furious and crazy if attacked by humans. He and his soldiers were ready to charge into battle, but the goblins simply ignored them. What was they planning?
There were so many things today that were beyond his comprehension that Irving felt that his entire outlook on life had been overturned.

"Deputy Captain Irving, why did those monsters run away?" An old soldier was also dumbfounded and came to Irving and asked in confusion.

"how could I know?"

"So what do we do now?"

"What else can we do? Chase after him!"

The goblins rushed towards the direction of Aven Town.

As a soldier of the kingdom, if you don't want to be treated as a deserter, you must go and stop them. Even if you can't win, you must die bravely to defend the honor of the kingdom.

Irving was extremely depressed.

Either early death or late death is death.

Why is it so difficult to die easily?
With a thoughtful mind, Irvin led his soldiers, following the goblins, and headed towards the town of Aven.

……

-

At the gate of Irwin Town.

The alarm bells rang, and the huge noise shook the entire city. The residents fled in all directions, and the captain of the kingdom's soldiers had also led all the soldiers here.

"Scout!"

"What enemy is invading the town?"

Below the observation deck, a man wrapped in armor sat on a strong and mighty warhorse.

He raised his head and asked the scout about the situation in a dignified tone.

"Captain Jiaen, a group of goblins are invading the town!"

???

Captain Jiaen raised his head and remained silent. Although his facial expression could not be seen because he was wrapped in armor, it seemed that he was stunned.

"Goblin invasion, why are you raising the alarm for such a small matter?"

"Irwin, where's Parish?"

After being stunned for a while, Captain Jiaen spoke angrily.

His thoughts at this moment were exactly the same as Irving's at the beginning.

The invasion of monsters is a huge scandal. Instead of solving it secretly, they sound the alarm and let the whole city know. What on earth is going on?

The scout stood on the observation deck, looking down from a high vantage point, activated the [Eagle Eye] skill, and looked carefully into the distance.

"Those goblins are heading towards town. They're almost there!"

"Vice Captain Irwin is chasing after those monsters."

"It seems that Vice Captain Paris is chasing Vice Captain Irving!"

The scouts reported what they saw truthfully.

Captain Jiaen raised his head and fell silent again.

?

? ?
???

Drive the monsters towards the town.

Is Irving committing treason?

What about Paris?
Eliminate traitors for the country?
