Chapter 542: Basel
The Goblin Commander didn't expect a bullet to hit him suddenly, and the guy was so frightened that he almost jumped when the air-piercing bullet hit the wheel of the catapult next to him. Due to the angle, the ricochet hit the tip of a horse-repellent stake behind the catapult. What happened in a short period of time frightened the Goblin Commander into hiding behind a baffle erected in front of the catapult, which was neither too small nor too small to block its body.
Freya, who was on the high ground, cursed that it was too late to correct the trajectory, and she couldn't force the Goblin Commander out from behind the shield, so she had to change her target. She slipped the Goblin Commander on the other catapult into her crosshairs, and pinned her hopes on Maffeo and Schultz, hoping that they would soon find out that the Goblin Commander had given up on the catapult and was hiding behind the baffle.
Hiding behind cover, Schultz poked out half of his head to observe Bankarul's movements, and to be honest, he didn't want to do that, if those goblins could use bows and arrows, then he thought his head was already blooming. However, their ranged attack does not have to be a bow and arrow, and throwing stones can also be their means of attack. When a green-skinned goblin spotted Schultz, he immediately picked up a small rock from the ground and threw it at Schultz's head.
Schultz quickly retracted his head, and then small stones flew past him grazing the edge of the cover, smashing into the snow on the ground in front of him. "Hell, they threw it accurately. Schultz scolded.
"What do you see?" asked Maffeo.
"It's a little weird, but the goblin commander of the catapult on the right seems to be hiding behind the baffle. Schultz replied.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure. ”
Maffeo and Bankarur looked at each other, then nodded in agreement. This was the best time Bankarur wanted, so the group dispersed and rushed out of cover. When they saw such a scene, the greenskinned goblins had no fighting spirit left, and they fled in the direction of the cave entrance. The Goblin Commander screams in vain on the catapult while operating the catapult to attack the influx of humans.
Although the rejection of the horses was the biggest obstacle for everyone, Freya had already frightened the commander of the second catapult into hiding behind the metal baffle, so when the suppression of the catapult was weakened, Bankarul's men could be afraid of those snowballs to wholeheartedly dismantle the rejection horses that stood in the way. Of course, the demolition was done in the style of the Bantu people - smashing the horses with their own great force and blunt objects.
Maffeo and Schultz jumped onto the catapult in two directions, the former slashing off the head of the goblin commander hiding behind the baffle with a single sword, and the latter clearing out the goblins who were probably the only goblins of the goblins with the courage to explode. Being blown up by the gunpowder on those guys is no joke, and not being afraid of death is a characteristic of these goblins.
Close encounters with them weren't a good choice, but the danger didn't last long, and in the face of these monsters, who didn't actually have much combat power at all, Schultz split their bodies in two with a simple whirling slash. And at this moment, they clearly heard the sound of bullets coming out of the chamber, followed by the sound of bullets entering the flesh. They turned their heads to see a mist of blood erupting from the head of the goblin commander on the third catapult, and the headless corpse was staggering down from the catapult.
"If I off Freya next time, remember to remind me. Schultz, who witnessed this scene, whispered to Maffeo.
"Have you her off before?" said Maffeo, who was interested in Schultz's words, with a smile.
"No, she's a nice person. It's just that...... I don't want to her off, you saw that. Schultz shuddered and pointed to the headless goblin corpse.
Maffeo whistled playfully, "Trust me, she's not that scary." With that, he jumped out of the catapult and rushed to the second catapult.
Shouts of killing came from the cave, and it sounded like a savage Bantu. Bankarul's men, who were clearing out the goblins that were rejecting the horses and trying to escape, were also stunned for a moment, and it was just a few seconds before two more guys were smashed in the head by the snowballs projected from the last catapult because they couldn't dodge - the catapult was in Freya's blind spot, so she couldn't suppress the catapult. Knowing full well that there was no point in staying on the high ground, Freya was about to leave, feeling her body freeze.
But just as she got up to leave, Uma's voice stopped her from the other side. "Wait, Freya, something is wrong, they may need you to stay here to support them!"
Freya looked away at Uma as she came to the high ground. "What do you mean?"
"Mirna and I felt something unusual coming from the cave. Uma walked over to where Freya had been lying on her stomach and pulled out her monoculars to observe the entrance to the cave. Freya, on the other hand, leaned back on the rocks and racked up her rifle. "Where's Mirna?"
"She's preparing magic sword oil, and if it's really like you say, there's a golem in the cavern, magic sword oil is what Maffeo and Frederick need. Uma replied.
"It's very thoughtful. Freya pouted.
Maffeo and Schultz began to pay attention to the entrance to the cave after dealing with the goblin commander of the second catapult, and the strange shouts of killing were clearly coming from the cave, and they were full of savage and momentum, and the only guys they thought of were the Bantu. But Maffeo knew that the Bantu people who had explored the cave before must have all died.
The Bantu man who burst out of the cave entrance startled Maffeo, who was clearly an enemy in the eyes of the other party. Since Schultz was the closest person to the guy, the Bantu man jumped to his feet and threw his fist at Schultz's head. What happened suddenly in a short period of time did not allow Schultz to react, but the experienced Maffeo had already made a move—he raised his ghost hand to launch a blood blast at the Bantu man, and at the same time swung his sword to sweep Schultz away from the spot.
"Basr, why are you here?" said Bancarur's startled voice from behind Maffeo, who did not turn to look at him, but stared at the Bantu man who had suddenly rushed out of the cave to attack Schultz. It couldn't have been more obvious, whether it was the necklace of wolf teeth, the eyes like ice crystals, and the clothes made of snow wolf fur to prove that he was a Bantu.
The guy known as Basr did not answer Bancarur, but clenched his fist and struck at Maffeo. "Be careful, Maffeo!" Bancarur quickly scurried in front of Maffeo, raising his blunt weapon to block Bassl's fist attack. Then he used a force in his hand and swung a blunt object vigorously to repel Basr. "What the hell is going on, Bancarur?" asked Maffeo.
"He is the patriarch of the Walker clan, the tribal branch of the Bantu tribe, but he has long since disappeared. Bankarul answered Maffeo's question as simply as possible, as it was clear that the opponent would launch the next wave of attacks at any moment.
"So......" Maffeo was a little stunned for a moment, and he was even a little skeptical that this sudden appearance of Basil could be a wraith.
"Anyway, I'll deal with him, and you and the others hurry into the cave. Bankarul said calmly.
"Be careful, Bankarur. Maffeo whistled at the others, then walked with Schultz around the chilly Basr towards the cave entrance.
Basir, who was originally as cold as ice, squeezed out a strange smile coldly, and at the same time, he also had a bad premonition in Bankarur opposite him.
