Chapter 37: The Halfling's Persistence
In the minds of most people in the Roland continent, goblins are synonymous with ignorance and greed, and in this race, neither small goblins, bear goblins, nor big goblins, or those giant goblins alienated from the small goblin race, can not match civilization and wisdom. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Some people even don't recognize goblins as a race at all, believing that they are merely human-like, upright beasts.
But in less than half a month, the fall of most of the land of the halfling kingdom Hobbit has caused various countries on the Rowance Continent to begin to reevaluate the goblin race.
Although the kingdom of halflings only accounts for a few tens of the continent of Roland, the racial strength displayed by the goblin race in this conquest campaign is eye-catching.
Bear goblins are excellent bloodthirsty warriors, and their wild temperament makes them fearless of death.
The Great Goblin is an excellent commander, obedient to discipline, fully conveys orders from above, and carries them out to the end.
Giant goblins are giant siege machines in human form, they can climb, charge, throw, and almost all the functions of siege machines can be perfectly simulated.
And the most threatening thing for the nations is the common goblins, which are now the goblin races that have been renamed the Little Goblins.
The number of small goblins is uncountable, and they are the best laborers, even if they are weak, but the quantity is enough to make up for the difference in quality, whether it is carrying, planting, or looting, or even dedicating themselves into military rations, they are all hand-to-hand, and they are simply incomparable.
Moreover, there will always be a small number of geniuses in the huge number, and the number of spellcasters born in the small goblins makes the countries fearful, although the rank is not high, but thousands of goblin casters who can release the [Burning Hand] or the [Fireball Technique] are enough to be called the [Magic Legion]!
。。。。。。
Rytrick, the strongest fortress of the Halflings, has been built with tall walls that even humans will marvel at, and the huge stones are connected by the Halfling's secret adhesive, which can barely be inserted by a thin blade.
On top of the city wall, there are hundreds of arrow towers and as many as 60 oil pots, which are specially used to heat the viscous black oil unique to the southern underground, and then pour it onto the outside of the wall.
When this fortress was first built, it was opposed by most of the halflings, who love peace by nature, and the active halflings have a natural discomfort with the dull and silent fortress.
However, the sixteenth Hobbit king overrode public opinion, and finally spent countless financial resources and more than ten years to build this fortress.
And now, the fortress proves how wise and far-sighted the Hobbit King was.
It was with such towering walls, arrow towers, and oil pots, and under the sudden attack of the goblin legions that lasted for three weeks, [Rytrick] still stood tall, and firmly guarded the halfling king behind him.
And at the moment, the war is still going on.
Huge logs were uprooted from the nearby woods by giant goblins, and after a simple removal of the luxuriant foliage, they were erected on the walls of Retrick's walls.
Immediately, countless bear goblins relied on their brute strength and sharp claws to climb along the logs towards the city wall.
Although unruly, ignorant, and arrogant, the bear goblin is excellent cannon fodder, and its adult strength and physique completely crush the human adult male. For a halfling, such an opponent can already be called a giant.
"First formation, release the arrows!"
"Second formation, pour oil!"
"The third formation, the spear is ready!"
In the face of the ferocious attack of the fierce bear goblin, countless small but sharp arrows shot down from the arrow tower, shooting the bear goblins that had not yet rushed to the city wall into hedgehogs. At the same time, a pot of boiling black oil poured down from the city walls, igniting the thick logs, turning the bears and goblins climbing on the logs into a huge burning torch.
However, there will always be some tough bear goblins who dodge arrows and hot oil and make it to the walls and bloom with blood-colored flowers, and that's when the pikes come in.
Although they are at an absolute physical disadvantage, the power of collective cooperation allows them to fight against individual bear goblins, and even if there are casualties from time to time, they cannot shake the will of the halfling warriors.
"Alert!"
"Everyone, dodge!"
Only then did he suppress the charge of a wave of bear goblins, and from the artificially piled mound hundreds of meters away from the city wall, dozens of fiery red spheres with orange fiery tail flames suddenly flew out.
The moment these fiery red orbs hit the city wall, the violent explosion immediately left a spider web-like crack on the wall, and even if they were hiding behind the city wall, the shock wave generated by the explosion could always blow several smaller halfling warriors into the sky at a time.
[Fireball Technique]!
The source of these fireballs is the spellcaster among the goblins, although they are not of high rank, but there is only one spellcaster needed in war, and that is the caster who can help the team!
"Kill all the halflings!"
Under the cover of the [Fireball Technique], dozens of bear goblins successfully broke through the defenses of the city wall, and the first extraordinarily tall bear goblin immediately trampled on the ground of the city wall with its right foot.
Immediately, a circle of fiery red light burst out from under his feet, turning into a circle of uncertain tongues of fire that swirled outwards and circled more than three meters.
Skill: [Lava Burst]!
"War Rank Bear Goblin!"
"All spearmen, back off!
"I'll leave it to me!"
A small white human girl held a toy-like dagger in her hand and held it high behind the halfling warrior, and all the warriors immediately obeyed the order to leave enough space for the two of them.
Then, an inky black light suddenly unfolded, and the smaller figure immediately sank into the black curtain, and then the black curtain disappeared without a trace.
"Get out of here!"
Skill: [Lava Burst]!
Another circle of fierce tongues of fire swallowed out, and the tongues of fire that had not yet dissipated before turned into a half-human-high terrifying flame, turning the body of the bear goblin into a scorching hell, without a trace of gaps to enter!
But this could not stop the lore of the halfling senior generals.
A snow-bright dagger light lit up from behind the bear goblin, tearing the wall of the flame in an instant, and then the light on the dagger suddenly increased, piercing the back of the bear goblin like a sword, and piercing the heart at the same time!
Just like a freshly sharpened long knife slicing through a ripe watermelon, it turned slightly, but the light of the dagger was slightly raised, and the head of the bear goblin was immediately cut in half.
Then, the smaller figure slowly rose from the dark shadow, exhaling a cloudy gas.
"It's really troublesome, the body is weakened too much, and I can't even stay in the [Shadow Plane] for ten seconds!"
The unknown senior halfling general looked up, and not far away, with the assistance of the pikemen, several other generals had already killed all the bear goblins who had rushed up the wall.
