The orcs dragged their exhausted bodies as they fled, but they couldn't get very far!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"
"boom!"
The centurion took a step forward and smashed down directly into the crowd—
"what--!!"
The orcs huddled together, screaming, and closed their eyes in despair.
"Bang!!"
A dull thud was heard, and the goblin centurion's club stopped in mid-air, unable to swing even slightly.
The huddled beastmen first squinted their eyes, then slowly opened them.
In front of them stood a man dressed in white clothes, his figure as tall and strong as an adult male orc.
In his hand was a giant bone shield large enough to block his entire body.
He held his shield high, blocking the goblin tribune's massive wooden club.
"Get up! Keep running!!" Layton shouted with a laugh in Orcish.
Without hesitation, the beastmen quickly stood up and helped each other escape.
"Roar!!"
Finally regaining his senses, the goblin centurion roared and raised his wooden club high, furiously slamming it down on Layton!
"ah--!!"
The orc children carried on his back turned to look at him, letting out three sharp, piercing screams. 6√：∷∞
"Bang!!"
Another heavy thud, the wooden stick struck Layton's shield, only making his hands sink, not even making him take a step back!
The fleeing beastmen all watched this scene in astonishment.
That's a giant goblin!
One blow and they'd all be flattened!
This man... he actually withstood the attack so easily?!
"Smash it if you want!"
This is a shield to protect humanity! And a shield to protect the orcs!
My shield! A shield that will block all demons!!
"You mere goblin! Don't even think about hurting anyone in front of me!!"
"boom--!"
The golden beam pierced the goblin centurion's head, leaving a hole beneath it that allowed a clear view of the scenery behind it.
A stunningly beautiful girl with white hair and dressed in white appeared before the orcs, leaving both boys and girls in a daze.
She held up her staff, her voice gentle and soothing:
"From now on, this place is in our hands."
The hero has arrived!
Chapter 61 It must have been done by humans! (4k)
"boom!"
The flaming metal bullet pierced the Goblin Champion's head, then vanished into thin air as it flew backward.
"There shouldn't be any goblins in this direction." Leif, the Spear Hero, looked at the fallen goblin centurion, the old-fashioned musket in his hand emitting wisps of smoke.
On the other side, the fleeing beastmen suddenly felt a lightness in their bodies as a large number of flower petals, carrying their fragrance, pushed against their backs, easing their fatigue from the escape.
However, what they didn't know was that these petals grew from the goblin's corpse.
Before the Flower Warrior Kafi, a Goblin Champion knelt on the ground, its head tilted back, its entire body covered in vines adorned with colorful flowers.
A most vibrant and enormous rose emerged from its upturned mouth.
The goblin, also transformed into a work of art, was surrounded by five others, with petals fluttering through the forest.
On the other side, a goblin champion, whose very nature is questionable, lay on the ground.
Its entire body was covered in bite marks; its limbs and torso were mangled and bloody. The fatal wound was clearly from where a quarter of its head had been gnawed off, with its brains spilled all over the ground.
One of the heroes, looking at the Fang Hero Kelpha, who had put his mask back on and whose clothes were covered in goblin blood, grinned and asked, "Um... it doesn't taste good, does it?"
Kerfa simply shrugged: "If I can bite it off, I'll swallow it. I don't care about the taste."
Except for the three-headed goblin champion, all the other goblin centurions have been cleared out.
Because the number of orcs was not large to begin with, there were actually quite a few warriors who could handle them, so no orcs were injured or killed during the cover of their retreat.
Escorting all the orcs to the edge of the forest signifies the end of this operation—
A resounding victory!
Not a single orc died, not a single hero perished; even those who were wounded recovered quickly thanks to the heroes' healing.
On the way, Annie and Lycorina met up.
Lycorina rushed towards Anyi with tears in her eyes when she saw him; it had only been one night, but it felt like an eternity.
An Yi only said one sentence, and it killed her mood for making a scene.
"Arya's family is all gone."
Lycorina's expression changed instantly, from sunny to cloudy.
Then I saw Elsa, her eyes red from crying, clinging to the Goblin King's arm, and I thought to myself that she must also be grieving over this.
Layton was also surprised to hear this unfortunate news and wondered if there was anything he could do for Arya.
On their way, they also found Miluko, who was "dead" by the roadside.
She leaned against a tree with lifeless eyes, her whole body slumped there, as if she had turned gray.
...it burned out.
An Yi figured no one would want it if she left it there, so she picked it up and took it back.
Tell her "Well done" and pat her head, and she'll probably come back to life with a silly grin.
However, she did work very hard, and she is a great contributor to the success of this operation.
An Yi felt that she had done far less than Milu had.
Because many of the beastmen were exhausted, suffering from hypoglycemia, anemia, and dehydration, they made their way back to the city, stopping and starting, from morning until night.
The orcs entered the city in large numbers, and the first thing the believers did to welcome them was...
Let's hold a banquet!
In a square filled with food, both boys and girls, and children alike, stuffed their mouths like hungry tigers, not caring about their image, and just ate like mad.
The heroes weren't hungry, but they saw a reflection of their own hunger pangs in the heroes, which made them feel somewhat emotional.
Food is plentiful, as much as you want; the beastmen probably can't imagine how many "gluttons" are kept in this city on a regular basis.
I'm not criticizing the heroes, it's just that their appetites are truly enormous.
The support team didn't even feel any pressure having three thousand orcs sharing dinner.
How much can an orc eat?
Do hundreds of starving warriors eat a lot?
How big are their bellies?
It's a minor issue.
After the banquet, all the orcs collapsed on the ground and fell asleep.
They had endured hunger and suffering for an unknown amount of time, and now they were finally relieved. They ate their fill and then fell into a deep sleep.
The heroes were also at the banquet. A large group of heroes lifted the restrictions on drunkenness and slept soundly with a large group of orcs.
An Yi doesn't drink or join in their craziness. She eats something, finds a place to sit, and spends the whole night there.
"Ah... even the dolls are exhausted!"
Ruby sat on the ground, using a carving knife to repair a doll with severely worn joints.
She received a message that the doll had suddenly fallen apart, so she rushed over from her room to repair it.
"Ling," who spent more than half a month with the expedition team, moving things and washing all kinds of clothes every day, now has worn out the joints of her limbs. I can't imagine how much food she moved in one night.
Because it was relatively quiet around An Yi, she went to An Yi's desk to fix it.
"I can't eat anymore..."
Noel was fast asleep at the dining table in front of An Yi, and no one knew what she was there for.
"Huh? So you're here?" Lycorina moved closer to An Yi, watching him write something on the table.
She just went to a meeting with some resident representatives, saying that the orcs could stay in the city temporarily, and explaining the benefits the orcs could bring.
Although the residents followed the arrangements of the Hero Alliance, the Alliance couldn't just suddenly allow thousands of orcs to move in.
After all, they are considered "different races".
Language barriers and differing customs can easily lead to various problems, so residents need to be mentally prepared beforehand.
After the meeting, Lycorina went straight to several dark corners of the banquet hall and finally found Annie after searching for a long time.
"What are you doing?" Lycorina pulled up a chair and sat down next to An'i.
An Yi: "We have gained several hundred more orcs capable of fighting, and we are now developing a training plan."
There are also plans to attack the Goblin Empire. "Qi"
Lycorina: "Don't you have anything else to do?!"
An Yi: "What is it?" Lin
