"puff puff"
Faced with goblins charging forward without any formation, driven only by instinct and evil madness, the throwing axe instantly ripped off the goblins' skulls, while the javelin even managed to kill two at once.
If these goblins hadn't been wearing rudimentary iron armor, their powerful javelins could have easily taken down three or even four of them. Unlike now, the goblin that took down two is still breathing!
"Run!"
After the Nord Royal Guards finished throwing their weapons and took down more than a dozen goblins, Liu Tianyu made a quick getaway without a second thought.
Just kidding, three orc warlocks, hundreds of goblins, a narrow and poorly protected environment, and only ten people on our side, all those debuffs combined.
If he were to charge up and fight the three orc warlocks, that wouldn't be bravery, that would be sheer stubbornness!
"I've already told you, guests are guests. Since you are guests, then we and the little ones should treat you well!"
Hearing Norgo's voice behind him, Liu Tianyu spat inwardly. If the only opponent was you three orc warlocks, I would have used your skulls as bowls!
However, cursing in one's heart is one thing, and reality is another.
Liu Tianyu's only thought now is to get on the ship as soon as possible, then run out of the sewers and go to the Water City to recruit a group of mercenaries!
"Waaaaah—"
"Hee hee hee--"
Just as Liu Tianyu led the Nord Royal Guards to the anchorage, they found that the ship had already been occupied by dozens of goblins, who stood on the ship and made evil laughs at Liu Tianyu.
"grass!"
Watching the ship sail away, Liu Tianyu couldn't help but swear.
"Chain Lightning!" "Boom—"
Before Liu Tianyu could utter another curse, a loud shout suddenly came from behind, followed by lightning and thunder. Then, a blue bolt of lightning struck the last Nord royal guard.
The Nord royal guard who was hit fell straight to the ground, his body charred black, his life hanging in the balance.
That wasn't the end of it. After electrocuting him until his entire body was charred black, the lightning bolt jumped up again, chaining the second, third, and fourth Nord Royal Guards.
"what!"
The second Nord royal guard who was electrocuted screamed and fell to the ground headfirst, losing consciousness.
The third Nord royal guard was alright; aside from letting out a scream, having part of his body charred, and trembling all over, he was still able to stand up with difficulty.
The fourth Nord Royal Guard only trembled slightly, and then nothing happened.
"Why leave so soon? We haven't properly entertained you distinguished guests yet!"
In the shadows, a group of goblins, surrounding three orcs, slowly approached, like the Grim Reaper closing in, making Liu Tianyu's mood extremely bad.
“Flame Arrow!”
With a roar, Il gathered his evil energy and unleashed a blazing arrow-shaped flame at Liu Tianyu.
"whoosh"
Larov, standing next to Liu Tianyu, immediately drew his throwing axe from his waist and hurled it at the arrow-shaped flame.
With a "boom," the flying axe was instantly incinerated into molten iron upon contact with the arrow-shaped flames, and then shot towards Liu Tianyu at the same speed.
"!!!"
Seeing the flaming arrow rushing towards him, Liu Tianyu froze on the spot, just like a pedestrian helplessly facing an impending car accident.
The author says:
Author's note: Sorry, everyone. I was back at work today and didn't get to my workplace until tonight, so there's only one chapter tonight. I rushed it out, so I hope you won't mind. I'm so sorry (kneeling)!
Chapter Fifty: Unexpected Reinforcements
With a "thump," while Liu Tianyu was stunned, Larov beside him was not. Without hesitation, he pushed Liu Tianyu out and faced the arrow-shaped flame himself.
With a "bang," the fire arrow exploded instantly, blasting Larov directly into the sewage pool.
"Larov!"
Seeing Larov fall into the sewage pool and become completely still, Liu Tianyu couldn't help but shout, but received no response.
"It's unbelievable! Humans would actually entrust their lives to each other? Those humans from before would have preferred to grow four legs and run away as fast as they could."
Watching Larov's heroic act of sacrificing himself to save others, Treig said touching words, but his face showed a look of schadenfreude.
"Damn it! There's no other way now, brothers, let's prepare to fight to the death!"
Looking at the three orc warlocks in front of him, who were playing cat and mouse with him, and with the goblins having already taken back the ship, there was no other option but to fight to the death.
Or rather, there is one option: he could simply surrender. However, if he were to fall into the hands of an orc warlock, he wouldn't even dare to imagine what would happen to him!
Horde orc shamans might treat prisoners of war well, but for old Horde orc warlocks, dying quickly is the best outcome!
"Damn it! I should have hired mercenaries, or waited for the witch's magic to recover before teleporting some people over!"
Liu Tianyu gripped his sword and shield tightly, back to back with the Nord Royal Guards who were still standing, watching the approaching goblins with a cautious expression, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
"Sigh, it seems my time-travel journey may be coming to an end. I wonder if I can travel back in time if I die?"
Liu Tianyu appeared expressionless on the surface, but inwardly he was furious, after all, this was the first time he had faced a life-or-death situation!
"Gala!"
"Drink!"
Soon, an impatient goblin, empowered by evil fanaticism, charged forward with a howling roar, only to be met with a single, devastating blow from the giant axe of the Nord Royal Guard.
The goblin, howling madly, was cleaved in two along with its crude iron armor, spraying out scorching dark blood that stained the front of the Nord royal guard.
"Gaaah!"
"Ooh-ga!"
As if it were a signal, after the first goblin died, the remaining goblins showed no panic. Instead, they let out frenzied howls, dripping dark blood from their bodies, and pounced on Liu Tianyu and the others.
"Swish"
Faced with the goblins rushing towards them, their expressions fanatical and their cries incessant, Liu Tianyu and the Nord Royal Guards had nothing to say, they simply swung their weapons wildly.
It was either a giant axe splitting a goblin in two, a one-handed fighting axe chopping a goblin into goblin paste, or Liu Tianyu wielding his long sword to precisely separate the goblin's corpse from its body.
The three orc warlocks at the back suddenly stopped casting spells, even the most irritable Il crossed his arms and looked like he was watching a good show.
Clearly, they also wanted to see if Liu Tianyu and the Nord Royal Guards could please them with their performance.
After all, their escape route has been cut off. Now, apart from futilely killing goblins and bathing in their dark blood, they have no other option, unless reinforcements come to their aid!
"Uh-huh!"
Not long after, a Nord royal guard who had been struck by a lightning chain suddenly froze, and a goblin seized the opportunity to fire a blowgun at the gap in his Germanic war helmet, hitting him squarely in the cheek.
The Nord Royal Guard immediately dropped the giant axe in his hand, drew the one-handed fighting axe from his waist, and then pulled the blowgun from his face with one hand.
The moment it was pulled out, purple blood seeped out from the wound, which swelled up considerably, and a sharp pain spread throughout his body.
"Wow quack!"
"Hee hee hee--"
Seeing the pained expression on the Nord Royal Guards' faces, the goblins who had surrounded them rushed forward and tackled the Nord Royal Guards to the ground.
They used iron swords, iron knives, and iron bars to strike the weak points in the armor of the Nord royal guards.
"what!"
After his defenses were breached, the Nord Royal Guard let out a scream and desperately swung his right-hand fighting axe at the goblin that had pounced on him.
The two goblins were immediately cut down by the enraged Nord Royal Guard, but more goblins pounced on him, laughing evilly.
"Puff puff"
Finally, with the combined efforts of several goblins, they removed the Germanic War God helmet from the Nord Royal Guard and then, without hesitation, swung their weapons toward his head.
"Ahhh!"
After letting out a scream, the Nord royal guard who had been tackled to the ground finally lost all his life.
"Gan!"
Seeing that he had lost another soldier, Liu Tianyu was filled with shock and anger. He swung his long sword and immediately drove away the goblin that had pounced on the Nord Royal Guards, only to find a corpse with several broken swords stuck in its head.
"Damn it! If this keeps up, we're all going to be wiped out! I feel like I'm about to run out of energy too."
There was no time for mourning. After glancing at the corpse of the Nord Royal Guard, Liu Tianyu swung his long sword again and killed a goblin. His mood slowly sank to the bottom.
In the current situation, if no one comes to support him, the only outcome will be that he becomes a toy for the three orc warlocks, and the entire Nord Royal Guard is wiped out!
In this deep sewer, apart from the sound of flowing sewage, any other sound is extremely loud.
The dense, loud noises caused the goblins surrounding Liu Tianyu and his companions to instinctively turn their heads toward the source of the sound, their evil faces showing confusion and bewilderment.
Their intelligence is no different from that of a seven- or eight-year-old human child.
But within their green eyes, they discovered numerous tiny black shadows flying towards them, and these shadows were becoming more and more numerous and denser.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
Dozens of arrows whistled through the air, descending in beautiful arcs.
The sharp iron arrowheads are cone-shaped and possess extremely strong armor-piercing and killing capabilities.
These arrows are high-grade iron arrows from the Kingdom of Vaegir. They are cone-shaped arrows used exclusively by Vaegir archers.
At that moment, a rain of arrows fell from the sky.
Arrows pierced through the goblins' crude iron armor with ease, impaling the unfortunate creatures who were frozen in place. Their bodies convulsed like hedgehogs as they lay motionless in pools of dark blood.
This single volley of arrows alone claimed the lives of at least thirty goblins, sending them to meet the evil god.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
It wasn't over yet. Just five seconds after the first volley of arrows, another dense barrage of arrows, like the Grim Reaper's scythe, began to reap the lives of the goblins.
"Gala!"
"Ugh!"
Fear began to spread among the goblins. With their superior numbers and the support of orc warlocks, they were not afraid of fighting head-on; on the contrary, they were extremely fanatical.
But now, these attacks, launched relentlessly in the darkness, have even instilled a sense of fear in nocturnal creatures like goblins.
After the second wave of arrows, more than twenty goblins fell to the ground, motionless once again.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
After the second wave of arrows, less than five seconds later, a third wave of arrows arrived in perfect unison. Caught completely off guard, Il instantly flew into a rage, shouting:
"You cowardly traitor who attacks from the shadows, show me your true form, Flame Arrow!"
After he finished speaking, he immediately used his demonic energy to conjure a fire arrow from his hand and blasted it towards the direction of the rain of arrows.
"boom"
The moment the flaming arrow made contact with the rain of dozens of arrows, a violent explosion occurred, and countless small flames leaped wildly. These leaping flames directly illuminated the darkness not far away.
He had a scimitar at his waist, a sturdy 2.2m warbow in his hand, a helmet with scale armor on his head, a studded leather coat on his body, and a pair of warm nomad boots on his feet. His eyes were as sharp as a falcon's, and his hands holding the bow were covered with countless calluses without any gloves.
The newcomers were none other than the elite troops of the Kingdom of Vaegir on the continent of Calradia, the strongest archers: the Vaegir Archers!
Moreover, their numbers are quite large. Look at how neatly they stand on both sides of the sewer, arranged in three rows. There must be at least 50 of them. No wonder the rain of arrows they shoot can cause such great damage to the goblins.
But how did they suddenly appear in the sewer?
Looking at the suddenly appearing Vaegir archers, both the orc warlock and Liu Tianyu were filled with confusion.
Even Liu Tianyu opened the troop interface and found that he didn't have any new Vaegir Archers in his troop!
"My lord, Eleanor is late in coming to your rescue, I hope you can forgive me!"
Just then, a light yet spirited voice suddenly came from within the Vegia Archer's pod.
