Chapter 56 Growing The Team Part 1 & 2
56 Growing The Team Part 1 & 2
After they made the blood swear not to interfer in the fight the hob Goblin finally gave the signal to attack
And the Goblins just started running towards the defence line of the human mages as they split into three groups with the Tier 1 Goblins being the highest number of them all as even the unclassified( lvl 0) Goblins followed , it was as a wave of green was moving towards them in order to crush the small armies of humans defending..
But that was the last thing in there minds as the city guards quickly let the hill they were standing on as they rode on their horse with there spear and shied raised as they formed a formation to book the Goblins mid way
Even Steven stayed at the middle of the formation as he was already wielding a bow and giving orders, when Alec saw this he felt it was quite funny as he could not seems to see how he would be able to kill alot of people with just
A bow and arrow, the goblins kept on running forward as they made the city guards there primary targets, they ran forward with no intentions of stopping anytime soon, they did not even bother with formations or conserving there energy as they were confident enough
That they would be able to break any formation with there great numbers, the city gurads too, didn't want to be out don, as the accelerated more and were finally Albe to meet with there enemies mid way
The sounds of metal clanging against each other and flesh being pierce could be heard as the city guards were finally able to stop the Goblinsas they faced the first wave of attacks shakingly but was still able to hold
As they made sure to keep the goblins in bay not allowing them to pass the line in front as they covered themself with there big shields and left the little gaps for there spear to leave fatal injuries for any goblin who thought they had super powers as there kept on thrusting there spears through the little holes on the shield
The Goblins tried to break the formation, which looked like a rectangle with Steven and some of the executive guards in the middle and those in the edge using there big shields to form a small fortress Nôv(el)B\\jnn
And if one was weak they allow the Goblins come in while another city guard quickly takes his place and the executive in the middle makes sure any Goblins who comes in are killed in the most brutal way as they were the most strongest and elite of the Tier 1 groups among the city guards
Steven made sure to shot some arrows to support there members who seems to be on there last legs and assists them as they changed place with another soldier , Alec could not help opening his eyes when he saw the way Steven arrow was being shot
" there is nothing you would tell me that would make me believe that is an arrow, men!" Alec exclaimed as he saw an arrow shot with so much power pierce the head of about five goblins before loosing speed and falling to pierce any more enemies
Alec's Jaws would have fell off if not for wanting to keep his image, Steven made sure to take at least 3 life's every time he shot an arrow and that meant about 15 life's gone for every 5 arrows the least
" monster" Agnes exclaimed quite excited at the way the city guards were able to take care of the goblins easily
" Alec when do we join them, am already itching for a battle and the way am looking at it, if we don't help soon they might lose soon" Brandon said
" Patience brother of Little conversation for I your great brother is baiting the goblins into a great trap of mine" Alec said
Brandon : "..."
" don't tell me the city guards are your bait this time?" Brandon asked in disbelief
" when did you become so smart!?"
Brandon : "...."
Arthur "...."
Agnes : "..."
Knight :"..."
" are yo suprised?" Alec asked with a nonchalant expression on his face
" isn't that so obvious already, but you did say you respect the city guards alot, since you made it clear you look up to those who protect the people, so why In the world would you use them as bait" Brandon asked innocently
" if you ask me Alec is just being cruel again" knight said
" there is nothing you won't do to get what you want right" Arthur asked with a smirk on his face
" Well pardon me, I am still Commander here and I don't care what anyone says about me, but I lead this squad which means am responsible for your lives too"
" and I would be damned to make you all die a stupid death so just wait here for my orders" Alec said as he rests on his horse with a bored expression on his face
But Agnes cold see the the smirk on his face that was hidden by his bored expression, and it just showed how much happier he was than Before, he could not wait for the goblins to just do what he want
So he could take advantage of the chaos to create more death, he just regrets that the city guards was not under him if not he would have being collecting some exp points for all the kills they already had till now
" hmmm coward" Clarisa said as she finally couldn't bear Alec's behaviour she and her sister led the Darkbliss family as the made there way to go reinforce the city guards before they die from exhaustion
Alec pout his mouth when he saw her acting like that again, he still didn't know what he did to make her so toxic towards him
But he just shrugged " she might make our plans a little late so just wait a lil bit" Alec said again and even the old generation who followed Could not help but think that throughly he was a coward
But they did not have the courage to speak up, because he was still the young master even if they didn't like it
The Darkbliss finally joined the fight, they mostly wield a pair of daggers as they moved in a very unique way and attacked at the neck of every goblins they passed
There skills was so cool as they never needed a second strike with the dagger, there killing speed now seems to have passed the city guard, which seems to catch the eyes of the goblins as they finally were focused on the places with shadows
But they wer still able to come out from the Goblins shadows and attack which was kinda crazy but after a few minutes they were low on mana, after all they were just Tier 1 juniors and like that
Most of the tier one goblins split and started attacking the Darkbliss family and they started having casualties as they didn't have strong body but there escaping was flawless as they made sure to always sink back into the shadow before they were caught
" you just made my day!" Alec smiled as he saw the Darkbliss Families making some of the goblins pay attention to them since they wanted to get rid of the Darkbliss who had that troublesome element abilities
With Clarisa dagger skills she was still able to ounter attack with all the Goblins chasing them, which was up to a thousands Goblins but she and her sister was able to hold there ground as they were running away from where the city guards were takings some of the pressure away from them.
" Those mages that can use the earth spear spell fluently come straight to the front and I need about 70 of you" Alec ordered and about 100 mages came to the front and Alec just picked about 70 after using his inspect skills on them
" spread out now and start conjuring a earth spear " Alec said as he sneakily checked there skill level
And he noticed most of them were just level 1 only a few level 2 and one person was able to raise there earth spear to level 3
They all formed there earth spear after 3 seconds
" aim at the back of those golems running after the Darkbliss mages, Now fire " Alec waited till the Darkbliss was out of the range of the spell attack before he gave the command to shoot
Without hesitation they released the earth spear at the goblins who still raised there big black bat and Axes
The Goblins stopped as they felt there back felt cold, they were confused as there intuition was never wrong and there intuition was telling them there was danger approaching
But they look around confused not understanding why they could not place there hand on it after all they were just chasing some weakly mages who dared to sneak attack at there companion who was facing the city guards
It took a few seconds before they started hearing wails and sounds of piercing at the back and the moment they looked back they noticed
About fifty of there comrade dead and about ten injured as they were pierce by earth spear, " arrrhfgh" they shriek in anger, as one of the human squad they ignored has just drawn blood on them while they were unaware
While they were feeling pain for there dead comrade, Alec was feeling like a he was the main character of the world as his system notifications never stopped as he was filled with alot of messages
[ gain 10 exp for killing Tier one goblin soldier]
[ gain 10 exp for killing Tier one goblin soldier]
[ gain 10 exp for killing Tier one goblin axeman]
[ gain 0.4 exp for killing unclassified goblin ]
[ gain 10 system point]
[ gain 10 system point]
[ gain 2 system point].....
This type of notifications just kept on coming and Alec was just smirking on top his horse as he was loving this feeling of gaining alot without even moving
He saw that the goblins have changed direction and where not even interested in pursing the Darkbliss family again but has turned all there attention to the Gordons family who was still standing on top the hill
" Woah this seems interesting, now you are coming to get revenge I can't wait for you all to come get it back in blood " Alec said and he looked at the seventy Gordons mages who were standing there looking shocked at there handwork
Alec was perplex at this idiots they only killed fifty goblins out of a thousand and they were already feeling proud, he felt he had to snap them Back in shape so they don't get cocky
" hey what are you doing sleeping, form your next earth spear, and shoot them at those bitches coming at us, don't tell me that you pussies are scared of there numbers" Alec shouted his Commander effect taking place instantly, even if he was spouting alot of foul language
His half ass speech seems to wake those seventy mages from there daze state as they realise the flood of green monster that was still coming for them, there body tremble as if they stay in that state just a little long then they might end up losing there life soon but they were still able to form the second round of the earth spear
Even if they were nervous which just showed how much the commander title helped calmed there nerves as no one failed in forming there spell under pressure
" Fire!!!" Alec ordered the moment they were through forming the earth spear
And that was how another salvo of spear flew out in the air like arrows the goblins felt cold as they were too many and the spear was even targeted at the different places due to the insufficient skills of the casters but it was clear they were going to kill or injure someone
When they came down because of the large number of Goblins, and just like that
Bang!, bang!, bang!!!
The heads of different goblins were pierced and killed as another about sixty something goblins were killed
Alec checked there levels again and smiled, there use of the earth spear skill was improving and if they killed enough they should be able to level up there skill making it easier for them to kill more Goblins for Alec which he saw as more exp points
[ gain 5 exp for killing Tier one goblin soldier]
[ gain 5 exp for killing Tier one goblin axe man ]
[ gain 5 exp for killing Tier one goblin axe man ]
[ gain 5 exp for killing Tier one goblin soldier]
[ gain 10 system point]
[ gain 10 system point]
[ gain 10 system point]
[ gain 10 system point]
Alec smiled at the notification, he silented the notification first as he still had a battle to Command and now he thought about it, he didn't really hate this job, he loved it, being able to get so much exp without doing anything and he had being the cause of over a hundred death
Those who were not involved in the battle looked at Alec with new lights and the lanzt felt even more respect for this man they were following and everybody were just waiting for the order to jump in
And fight after all they were all hot blooded youth
" Again!!!!!" Alec Commanded making the goblins who had not breach the length tremble in fear as they saw the new salvo of spear that was formed
They were cursing themselves now for going against these hard bones, but the seventy mages involved in the killing didn't care as they were becoming more confident in themselfs because of Alec and the Commander title effects
With the increase in there confidence and skill Alec was sure he was about to create a killing group
" Fire" Alec whispered with a smirk but they all heard him after all they were all mages and had great hearing, Alec was actually talking to them
They wasted no time releasing there new salvo of spears in passion as they were wondering how many they would kill before the goblins came close
Arthur, Brandon, Knight and Agnes felt if this continued Alec might just break the goblins confidence before they even reached them
