00055 Class E Adventure Party

As the sun passes through the middle, the adventure team returns as it rests on the western mountains. They appear in the hills quite far from the village.

We shared Goblins and Humans and made it look like we were fighting each other. About a hundred Goblins were strapped to their heels with straps, which made the dust seep up as if it were a fierce battle. In the dusty mist, humans call out to the troops with polite instruments, and the Goblins shout. The sound of iron and iron colliding also resounded.

Laura covers her mouth with her clothes on.

“Hostiles are coming. ”

“You must think there's a battle going on. ”

“I'll take it to the next level. ”

I nodded my head in the sense that I would allow it. Laura gives orders to the monster army. Although not as immediate as I was - in my case, I could command a formally purchased golem or fairy from a dungeon - in my mind, I used her own flag to lead monsters.

─ Ker-dub!

─ Chip, Chip, Chip!

Goblins rush towards the town gate. Like a straggler who retreats from panicking at the appearance of a sudden enemy. As promised, the Humans have chased after the monsters. Me and Laura stood on the other side of the village and watched the scene.

“Whoa! Monsters are retreating! ”

“Kill them! Catch them!”

From the perspective of the Adventure Party, the situation was as follows: The monsters and villagers are having a lot of workshops. As the two sides struggle, they appear in the rear of the monster army. Monster battalion suddenly retreats in amazement of the appearance of enemy troops.

“You took the bait. ”

The Adventurer-Vigilante Alliance attacked the defeated Goblin troops. During the retreat, the army was the most delicious prey. The adventurers wanted to end the battle by pressuring the monster troops back and forth with the town's pursuers.

Monster troops are rushing towards the adventurers, not retreating.

The villagers who look like they're chasing monsters don't even know they're going to attack the Adventure Party.

Laura and I muttered almost simultaneously.

“It's over.”

“It's over.”

A group of Goblins encounters an adventurer in the plains in front of the town.

* * *

“Kuhaha, the village kids did better than I thought! ”

Upon witnessing the battle in the town, Reef relentlessly ordered an assault. It was obscured by the dust, but it must have been a fierce fight. Noise, shouting, screaming, everything meant a bloody war.

A wooden scepter was broken through at a glance. At first, Reef thought the town was in a disadvantage. Before the town was wiped out, he was ready to join forces and carry out the Anvil and Hammer operation. However, as soon as his troops moved, he saw the Goblins running out of town and changed his mind.

"Stop!"

The town is undisputed. Even after the wooden fence had been broken through, it was still repeating itself inside the village. Monster troops must have suffered massive casualties while piercing four layers of carpentry. In such a situation, the Demon Prince's troops were embarrassed and ordered a retreat when Reef's troops appeared in the rear.

The situation has changed. The town has become an anvil and they don't need to be hammers. Instead, they grab the retreating Goblins' ankles by becoming anvils. The villagers become huge hammers and smash the rear of the incompetent Goblins!

Reef yells out in excitement.

“Brothers, do you see it? Those Goblin bastards are running away like assholes on fire! ”

“Ahh! I can see that! ”

“Enough spears we have to beat those little bastards! ”

The adventurers and vigilantes shout. Some of them had already cried out for an assault.

Goblin, Leaf, and both sides rush towards each other. The distance between the two decreases rapidly. Since then, the number of people who shouted evil has increased rapidly. It was to eradicate the fear of battle with evil.

Running heats the heart. The scream lets out a hot breath. At that moment, the adventure squad dives from its true meaning into the battlefield.

“Let's die, let's die! ”

“Huff! Huff! Huff!”

“Fuck these bastards! ”

Goblins are closing in. Along with him, a terrifying cry erupts from the monster.

─ Glug-ug-ug-ug!

─ Kerak! Kerak! Glug!

The reef pushes the tip of the spear forward. It was a spear sponsored by a purveyor of sorts in the city. It is longer than a javelin and shorter than a javelin. Although it was somewhat short to confront the human army, it was still abundant enough to stab a Goblin that was much taller than a human race.

“Yaaaa!”

“Ahhhh! Let's die! ”

“Kiyo Oh-ok ―! ”

All units raise their windows following the Leaf's giant signal. Muscular forearms, overwhelmingly larger body than a Goblin, and thick chest and thighs firmly support the pole like a log. Finally, two armies collide.

“Shhhhh!”

A huge scream echoes through the plains. Kuong and a strong vibration are transmitted to the Leaf's clutches. You pierced two Goblins at once with the tip of your spear. My palms are sore. Running slow. Nevertheless, the Leaf presses into its right foot and runs forward. Every step of the way, cough! Kung! I was shocked by the spear. Stupid Goblin pups, like fireflies, rush towards the sharp end of the spear!

“Kill me, motherfuckers! ”

“Charge! Spin! Don't stop! Don't stop! ”

“Fucking Hans, keep running! ”

The Adventurer-Vigilante Alliance is like a moving rocky shoreline. Goblins can't stop coughing! Kwung! I pushed, but soon I fell like a bubble on a rock. For a Goblin, a heavy infantry raid was as powerful as a Knight's Charge.

At best, the Goblins were exposed to leather armor and most of their bodies bare. Humans, on the other hand, wear quality fabric armor and chain armor on top of it. Although expensive chain armor could not cover the whole body, the upper body and thighs were well defended.

Several Goblins barely make it through a forest of spears and swing a club. However, it was difficult to make a fatal blow beyond the chain armor. Only eight of the unlucky few humans, seventy-three men, died in the raid. The rest of the 65 infantry marched on without hesitation. By the time the speed of the run had completely died and the charge had stopped, over a hundred Goblins had already been destroyed in an instant.

“Girls! Stick together cheap! ”

“Don't fight alone, fight together! Hans! You're gonna get yourself killed! ”

The troops are advancing at a rapid pace.

A group of troops rushed far away because they were too excited. They were surrounded by Goblins. Like a deer caught by a flock of jackals, they were bitten and killed by Goblin teeth everywhere in their body. There were sixty men left. They squeeze the dust and stab the Goblins calmly.

“Kuhaha! It's a piece of cake! ”

“Breathe. Huff! Stab! Hehe! Pick it up! ”

“Huff! Huff! Huff!”

Vigilantes have been protecting the town from a lifetime of Goblin attacks. The vigilante knows better than anyone that the Goblins will put you out of harm's way if you're not surrounded by them.

It was when the excitement of the charge subsided a little.

“Huff! Huff! …? ”

The Adventure Party executive frowns. With a relentless glance at the front, he says to Reef, who is standing beside him swinging his spear.

“Commander! Huff! Something's wrong!”

“What the fuck?! Don't be ridiculous. Stab him! ”

“There are too many Goblins! ”

Your brain has been frozen ever since, devoting all its heart to killing Goblins.

‘... Too many Goblins? ’

Leaf's gaze widened at the moment. You not only see the Goblin in front of you, but also the next, and then beyond. The man was right. There are too many goblins. Even if you killed hundreds of them in the first raid, the green monsters still overflow.

‘Wait. There should be fewer workshops in town.' ’

There are roughly 300 Goblins. Strange. The Goblin troops must have had siege wars long before they encountered the Adventurers. Four hundred troops had to be reduced to at least two hundred.

What? Perhaps the Demon King's cub has been mobilizing more Goblins? His colleagues shout at him as soon as some thoughts hit him.

“Hey! This is weird! Why are the villagers pouring on both sides? ”

“They're not hitting the back of the Goblins, they're trying to join us! ”

“Those cowards! ”

His comrades continued to stab and pull out their spears diligently while casting a rampart. The reef was also mechanically repeating its movements. My colleagues shouted in my head.

"The villagers don't strike back at Goblins?" ’

The Leaf moves quickly to check the battlefield.

Obviously, the villagers are passing by the Goblins on either side. On both sides, the villagers were brothers and sisters who surrounded the Goblin Squad and the Adventure Party.

What are you doing? ’

It was understandable that he wanted to fight with this adventure group rather than fight the Goblins alone. The Adventure Troops are overwhelming. But right now, Goblins are relentlessly turning their back on the villagers. Is there a reason why I shouldn't beat the hunted animal out of my back? Were the villagers that much of a coward?

Why do Goblin pups fight so fiercely for their defeat?

“ ……! ”

Reef realizes, and is appalled. Only one answer explained the anomaly - the villagers betrayed us!

“Fuck!”

Reef cursed unknowingly. I did. The villagers caught up with the Demon Lord, for some reason. The Goblins weren't retreating, they were attacking with confidence, and now the villagers are moving to surround the adventure camps from side to side.

The charter has been reversed. The situation that has been thought to be advantageous has suddenly shifted to the opposite shape. The anvil and hammer are not opened this way. While the Goblins held the Adventure Party as an anvil, the villagers became hammers...... They were trying to destroy our Adventure Party!

Reef screams almost as if screaming.

“Retreat! Retreat! Fall back!"

“?? Commander, what the hell...? ”

“Don't talk back! I don't have time to explain. ”

The Leaf leaves the line and runs back. Your colleagues scream. There were those who abused the Leaf. But Reef didn't care.

This is the last moment. The adventure squad has fallen into a trap. Perfect. But the villagers have yet to wrap their arms around the Adventure Party. It's a matter of time...... but not yet! If we miss this opportunity, the Adventure Party will be surrounded and destroyed by Goblins and villagers of good fortune.

Before that, we run!

“Huff!”

Soon, however, Reef was forced to stop walking. The adventurers who ran away along the Leaf stopped together. They were starting to sense that something unfortunate was happening.

Approximately a hundred humans stand in the way behind them as they flee.

A village on the east end where Reef thought it was a traitor village. Humans from two villages.
