Rise of the Lycans

Chapter 8 The Goblin Tribe

“Yaw~”

“Growl~”

The closer they got to the goblin tribe, the more they could hear these strange cries.

This made Kane and the others know that the goblin tribe was ahead.

Catherine raised her right hand and signaled to the soldiers behind.

Her deputy, Reed, nodded and led several archers and shield-bearing soldiers in another direction. It seemed that they planned to attack the goblin tribe in a pincer formation.

On the other hand, Marcus called all the cavalry and planned to charge into the enemy tribe in a cone formation.

When everyone was ready to go, Kane carefully lifted the covering leaves and began to observe.

It would be suicidal to rush in without knowing the enemy's situation.

The dilapidated scene came into Kane's view. Even a refugee camp would probably be much better than this place.

The only buildings in the tribe were a few shabby houses made of thatch or leaves, and the ground was filled with all kinds of excrement.

What made Kane angry was that in the center of the tribe, there was a continuously burning campfire, and beside it, there were several human skewers. These must be members of the previous cavalry squad.

Suppressing his anger, Kane continued to observe the nearby goblin soldiers.

On the periphery of the tribe, there were one or two scattered goblins on guard, and it could be seen that they were completely unalert.

These soldiers yawned, as if they were about to fall asleep, and even the wooden spears in their hands were about to drop.

If it weren't for the presence of transcendent beings on the goblin side, how could his cavalry patrol team be defeated by such creatures.

Among this group of lazy goblins, there was only one tall green figure that stood out. Kane knew that this was the transcendent being, the goblin warrior, as the scouts had previously reported.

As a unique transcendent profession among goblins, it was much taller than ordinary goblins, reaching a height of over two meters. Its muscles were tense and its body was strong. It held a huge spiked club in its hand.

Presumably, with one hammer blow, an ordinary soldier would be flattened.

This guy was extremely difficult to deal with. Its strength was so great that perhaps even Marcus couldn't match it. Fortunately, it also had its flaws. That is, it moved slowly and couldn't use its spiritual source like human transcendent beings.

Kane turned around and said to his two subordinates who had come to his side, "The ordinary goblin soldiers are not to be feared, but we three need to focus on dealing with that transcendent being. After you give orders to your respective soldiers, come with me to attack the goblin warrior."

"Yes, my lord."

"Very well. Let's take action." With Kane's order, everyone rushed out of the grass and attacked the goblin tribe.

The goblin soldiers who were still yawning were so frightened by the sudden scene that they let out screams.

They picked up their weapons and quickly ran towards the tribe behind.

On the other side, the archers led by Catherine's deputy, Reed, emerged from the grass and shot their arrows, catching the goblins on guard in the south off guard.

This attack woke up all the goblins in the tribe, including that transcendent being.

More and more goblins came out of the thatched houses. Some of them were wearing ill-fitting leather armor, and some were holding human long swords they had just captured. Led by a seemingly intelligent goblin, they charged towards Kane's troops.

The infantry of Regit Territory were not afraid at all. Organized by Catherine, they formed two columns. The shield-bearing soldiers were in the front and the spear-wielding soldiers were behind. The shield-bearing soldiers withstood the enemy's attack, and the spear-wielding soldiers, taking advantage of the gaps between the wooden shields, stabbed at the goblins.

This formation was simple, but it was very effective against the stupid goblins. With only a team of thirty-four people, they successfully withstood the attack of more than a hundred goblins.

On the other hand, organized by Marcus, a cone formation with him at the head charged at the goblin army from the side. Like a sharp spear, it forcefully divided the more than a hundred goblins into two halves.

Seeing how useless his fellow tribesmen were, the goblin warrior was so angry that it hammered its chest and let out roars.

Then, it raised the spiked club in its hand and rushed towards Kane.

"Catherine, Marcus." Kane drew his long sword and also rushed towards the opponent.

"Yes, my lord." Immediately, Catherine stepped out from the soldiers, and after Marcus ordered another cavalryman to take his position, he also rushed towards the goblin warrior.

Kane, who took the lead, had already clashed with the goblin warrior. Since he knew how powerful the opponent was, Kane didn't confront it head-on.

After the goblin warrior struck with its hammer, Kane flashed to its left to avoid the attack.

Then, he condensed the spiritual source in his body onto his long sword and used the family's inherited swordsmanship to send out three silver-colored sword qi.

"Puff."

The goblin warrior's abdomen was slashed with three wounds. In pain, it hammered the ground several times, but unfortunately, it couldn't hit the human who had wounded it.

Kane, who had successfully launched the attack, didn't try to claim excessive credit. He stepped back several steps and thus avoided the angry attack of the goblin warrior.

During the fight between the two, Catherine and Marcus finally arrived nearby and came to Kane's aid.

Seeing that two more hateful humans had come, the goblin warrior swept its spiked club towards them.

Unfortunately, Kane and the others dodged the attack.

Marcus, who had the highest strength among the three, took the initiative to take on the task of distracting the opponent. While the goblin warrior's attention was on Marcus, Kane and Catherine continued to s***h at the goblin warrior.

For a moment, several wounds appeared on the goblin warrior. These cunning humans were as fast as loaches, and its attacks couldn't hit them. It could only watch as more and more wounds appeared on its body.

The goblin warrior, with all its strength but no way to vent it, became more and more angry. It wished to catch these humans one by one and tear them apart, but it couldn't do so.

The battle situation had tilted towards Kane and the others. Without any accidents, they could deal with this goblin warrior in a moment.

"Abaliem, you've let me down so much. You can't even deal with these few humans." An old voice came from the tribe, making Kane and the others stop in their tracks. What surprised them even more was that the other party was speaking the common language.

Just like its voice, an old orc with wrinkled face walked out of the thatched house. It held a magic wand full of skulls in its hand.

"How could it be... How could it be an orc evil shaman..." Marcus said with some despair.

Catherine, who didn't understand the situation, asked, "An orc evil shaman? Is it very powerful?"

"Certainly. As far as I know, an orc evil shaman is a powerful being who can reach the third tier." Kane, who remained calm, answered Catherine's question.

As if to confirm Kane's words, a powerful aura stronger than theirs emerged from the orc evil shaman, making everyone feel breathless.
