Chapter 193: Secure the Mountain Pass

The next day before the sun had risen, the elven army together with the army of the three northern houses left the kingdom.

Their main objective this time was to secure the mountain pass between the kingdom and the goblin colony.

It was a strategic location that could give them a huge advantage in the next battle.

However, there was one big problem.

This mountain pass was guarded by an army of five thousand goblins and there might even be another goblin monarch taking charge of them.

To secure the mountain pass, they plan to launch a sneak attack on the goblin camp. To do this without being discovered, they needed to move on foot and utilize the forest to camouflage themselves.

They covered their armor with leaves and they even smeared their bodies with green paste to mask their smell.

At this moment, Alaric was following the battalions led by his father and Neo. They were moving stealthily and no one dared to utter a sound. To communicate, they only used hand signals.

We are getting closer.

Alaric lifted his head and looked up at the top of the mountain.

From his position, he could see the wooden watchtowers and the walls that surrounded the goblin camp.

Suddenly, Lucas raised his hand and gestured something while keeping his eyes in a certain direction.

Fifteen enemies are coming…

That was what Lucas was telling them through his hand gestures.

After informing them about the incoming enemies, Lucas made a series of hand gestures.

It was a signal for the archers to prepare for action.

The rest of the soldiers crouched as they slowly walked through the dense forest. Meanwhile, the archers nocked their arrows, took aim, and waited for the enemies to arrive.

In the next moment, a group of goblin warriors finally came into view.

They looked like normal goblin warriors based on their appearance and their aura.

As soon as they arrived, Lucas made a snapping sound with his fingers.

It was the signal for the archers to release their arrows.

Suu! Suu! Suu! Suu!

Dozens of arrows were released and struck the oblivious goblin warriors, turning them into sieves.

They couldnʼt even emit a sound as they were killed instantly.

Neo and the elven warriors watched this scene without intervening. They wanted to see how the humans would handle the situation and the results made them satisfied.

Neo gave a nod of approval. He felt that they had handled things well.

The group took care of the corpses to prevent the goblins at the camp from identifying the scent.

After handling the corpses, they silently walked toward the foot of the mountain where they encountered another group of goblin sentries which were quickly eliminated by the archers.

One might wonder why they were being cautious when they had many Transcendents. The main reason for this was that they wanted to minimize their casualties as much as possible.

The two battalions ascended the mountain. The path was steep and full of sharp rocks so everyone had to be careful.

Once they were over halfway to the top, Lucas nodded to Neo.

The high elf understood his intentions and made a series of hand gestures to his subordinates.

Meanwhile, Lucas also instructed his subordinates to take out their bows in preparation for the next step of their plan.

Now we wait for the signal.

Alaric nocked his arrow and aimed at the goblin basecamp on top of the mountain.

Everyone was waiting for the signal to release the arrow. The signal will be sent by the elven king himself to make sure that everyone will attack at the same time.

Everyone waited with bated breath.

A few minutes later, a burning arrow shot into the sky.

”Now!” Lucas and Neo shouted at the same time.

As soon as they gave the command, everyone released their arrows.

Suu! Suu! Suu! Suu!

The sun hadnʼt risen yet so the goblins inside the camp failed to notice the incoming arrows.

Eiik! Eeeikk!! Eeikk!!

The screams of the goblins soon echoed, but everyone didnʼt stop from firing their arrows.

Everyone didnʼt stop until they had emptied their quiver.

Soon, another burning arrow was released into the sky.

It was the signal to commence the third and final step of their plan, to kill the goblins that had survived the barrage of arrows.

”Charge!” Lucas and Neo shouted as they led their battalions to the goblin base camp.

Alaric unsheathed his Rare Steel Sword and the custom-made short sword as he charged toward the mountaintop.

When they reached the top of the mountain, they saw a large number of goblin corpses nailed to the ground with arrows piercing through their bodies.

Some of these goblins were still alive, but Lucas and Neoʼs battalions quickly put an end to their misery.

”More enemies inside the camp!” Lucas shouted.

He then waved his sword, releasing a powerful wind blade that destroyed the wooden gates of the goblin camp.

Bang!

Inside the camp were more goblin corpses, but many goblin warriors had survived the volley of arrows.

Upon seeing the intruders, the scared goblins froze.

It was only when the hobgoblins appeared that they managed to gather their wits.

”Kill them all!” Lucas pointed his sword toward the surviving goblins. He didnʼt sense any powerful aura so he decided to let his subordinates take care of the remaining monsters.

Alaric rushed toward the hobgoblins and brandished the Rare Steel Sword.

Whoosh!

Two hobgoblins immediately died in just one swing. He then used the custom-made short sword to deflect the attacks coming his way.

Clang! Clang!

After casually blocking the attacks, Alaric swung the Rare Steel Sword and released a flurry of attacks.

Whoos! Whoosh!

With every swing, multiple goblins were killed! Even the stronger hobgoblins couldnʼt last a single blow!

In just a few seconds, all the goblins and hobgoblins that blocked his path had been killed.

Alaric rested while observing as the human and the elven warriors cleared the battlefield.

It was an easy victory.
