◈ 362. [STAGE 15] Trap
Prior to the dispatch, the biggest obstacle for the goblin army was unknown.
This faded swordsman claiming to be the watchman of the Lake Kingdom was nothing short of a disaster to the monsters.
The sword of light she wielded was inherently incompatible with monsters.
A monster slayer who single-handedly stopped the monsters from invading public property for the past five hundred years.
Usually, other monster corps threw low-level monsters at her as bait, and only elite troops, including the corps commander, used the method of dispatching.
However, the goblin legion could not use that method.
It was a corps that pushed through the mass offensive without a decent elite, and the scale was too large.
To send them out safely, a decoy corps of about the same size was needed. If 50,000 troops were dispatched, half of them would be slaughtered by unknown people.
So instead, the Orc Legion was given the task of blocking the Nameless, but the Orc Legion betrayed the Goblin Legion and eventually all of them were decapitated.
Carly-Alexandre had to come up with a plan.
So, the solution that came out was this.
“… … Whoa.”
In line with the goblin legion’s departure, a strange sight flashed in the eyes of an unknown person who tried to stop them.
“Are you going to deal with me yourself, Greenskin?”
《That’s how it happened, ‘the one who lost his name’.》
In front of her was the Goblin God King riding on a mountain goat.
A unique helmet that combines a crown and a mask. Leather armor and a golden cloak.
Unaccompanied by a bodyguard, Calli-Alexandre calmly pulled the reins of the goat before the nemesis of the monsters.
“I’ve wanted to see you sword to sword for a long time.”
“Certainly, I am also rusty. To believe that even a goblin can cross swords with me… … .”
“You’re not scared of that goblin, are you?”
“what?”
“If you have an idea, follow me. Then, hey!”
The goat carrying Carly-Alexandre ran into the deep darkness of the Lake Kingdom.
“… … .”
Moomin pondered for a moment.
The direction Carly-Alexandre is now fleeing is the exact opposite of where the goblin army headquarters is located.
‘Are you enticing me? To separate them from their legions?’
However, he was also well aware of the unknown.
The strength of the goblin army comes only under the command of their leader, the god-king Kali-Alexander.
If he could be eliminated, it would be tantamount to eliminating the core of the Goblin Legion.
‘The Nightmare Corps commander I killed will surely be revived by the Demon King, but in the meantime, the Goblin Corps will not be able to properly demonstrate their combat power. If the dispatch is delayed, we can wipe out the whole army in that gap… … !’
The worry was short, and the movements of the nameless were swift.
Taat!
She kicked off the ground and flew after the goblin god-king.
All right! All right!
Carly-Alexandre easily drove the mountain goat and ran into the lake kingdom.
Flash!
Moo-myeong, who had read the mountain goat’s course, fired light from the tip of the sword,
Keying-!
Right before the slash of light reached the Goblin God King, it bent strangely and missed to the side.
It was the effect of the armor worn by Carly-Alexandre. Anonymous clicked his tongue.
“They say it blocks all ranged attacks, so it’s not a lie.”
《Haha, if you want to kill me, you will have to thrust your sword directly into my throat… … !》
“I was about to do that anyway!”
Nameless followed closely behind the Goblin God King as he entered deeper and deeper darkness.
Her sprinting speed matched that of the warhorse, and she was able to get close to the Goblin God King in no time.
‘One more step-!’
The body of the Goblin God King came within the gap between the swords. Anonymous quickly stretched out his sword and tried to cut it.
But at that moment
Kirik!
Kyririk!
In the darkness all around, goblin soldiers fell in torrents.
It was an ambush. From the beginning, the goblin god king hid soldiers here and lured them into obscurity.
but,
“What a shame!”
Fu-wook! Pooh!
Nameless slashed the heads of the goblin soldiers with facile swordsmanship.
In the first place, there was no way that a normal goblin could stop her. Even earning time was only fleeting.
After killing dozens of goblins, Nameless hurriedly raised his head.
‘Who is the Goblin God King?’
All right! All right!
《Kirik, Kirik!》
I saw the back of the Goblin God King running away in the distant darkness. Nameless kicked the ground again.
There were several more ambushes like that, but Nameless broke through all of them without difficulty, and finally.
“Got it!”
I succeeded in attacking the back of the Goblin God King.

Chew-!
The goat that had been cut by the nameless sword collapsed, bleeding, and the body of the Goblin God King riding on it fell helplessly to the ground.
Moo-myeong felt something strange as he approached the ungainly goblin god-king.
“… … no way.”
A look of bewilderment passed over the nameless face as he hurriedly took off the goblin’s helmet.
《Kirik, Kirik!》
A unique tattoo was engraved on the face of the goblin, who let out a vivid sneer.
Goblin Amir.
10 elite monsters that follow the God King like a shadow. It was a tattoo allowed only to them.
Before I knew it, this goblin Amir had been pretending to be the God King.
“At some point… … !”
Anonymous gnashed his teeth.
At first, he was obviously the Goblin God King. Between her repeated ambush and flight in her darkness, her god-king escaped, and it seemed that her switched minions had lured her into her darkness.
《Kirik, Kirik, you have been fooled. Like a stupid human… … .》
Pooh!
Green blood dripped from Amir’s throat as he tried to say something.
Moo-myeong, who violently shook off his sword, glanced back. Before I knew it, I was far away from the central square where I first tried to stop them.
Besides, the place where this goblin lured her was, of course, the base of another monster army.
Sensing the encroachment of the ‘nameless one’, the Marine Monster Corps rose from their seats one by one, spitting sullen moans.
Anonymous gnashed his teeth.
“To be caught in such a rudimentary trap… … !”
***
《Hu, your conversation is cold.》
Carly-Alexandre brushed her chest as she drove the goat to the central square.
I switched to a subordinate in the middle, but it was Carly-Alexander himself who first stepped forward in front of the unknown. Otherwise, Nameless wouldn’t have been fooled.
Using his subordinates dressed just like himself to deceive the enemy was a deception tactic he enjoyed using even in his lifetime.
His direct lieutenants and field commanders, the Goblin Amirs, all had the same equipment.
And, following Carly-Alexandre’s instructions, he was able to imitate him.
It worked well this time as well, and it would take quite some time for the unknown who had been lured away to return here.
Although somewhat risky, the results were successful.
‘Even so, it won’t last very long… … In this gap, we must finish the dispatch to the ground as soon as possible.’
Thinking so, Carly-Alexandre returned to the central square and saw his legion slipping out of the lake.
Out of the goblin corps, which were divided into advance, main, and second units, the advance party had just finished dispatching troops, and now the main force was about to leave the lake.
《… … ?》
Carly-Alexandre sensed something was wrong.
he exclaimed urgently.
《All troops, stop-!》
thud!
The soldiers of the Legion stopped their advance and stood in their seats.
The goblin Amir, who was in command of the main force, ran to Kali-Alexander gasping.
“Kirik, the great Carly-Alexandre. Why are you like that?”
《… … Something feels out of place.”
Callie-Alexandre frowned at her legion from within the mask.
He tried to find out where he felt a sense of incongruity, and eventually he found it.
《Have you been contacted by the advance party?》
《Kirik? yes?”
“Shouldn’t the unit in the lead inform the rear units about the safety of the road? Have you been contacted?”
“Kirik, ah, there wasn’t… … But maybe it’s simply because they’re so close. We have to regroup at the entrance of the lake… … .》
“Isn’t it a near and far problem? It is normal that you should be contacted at regular intervals.”
Goblins have low intelligence.
But what I have definitely mastered, I do it thoroughly.
Kali-Alexandr applied strict discipline to his troops, and the goblins were adept at performing like machines.
Among them were these basic wartime codes of conduct.
The advance unit must report the safety of the route ahead to the follow-up unit at regular intervals. As long as it’s not completely annihilated, it’s definitely… … .
《… … no way.”
Carly-Alexandre led the mountain goats to the front of the main force.
From the gates of the Lake Kingdom to the surface of the lake, there was a transparent path.
Carly-Alexander stopped the goat just below the surface and chinned the goblin soldier in front.
“You there, go out to the surface.”
《Kirik!》
The goblin soldier rose out of the water without hesitation.
Flash!
Then it disappeared like it was being sucked in.
The flagship Carly-Alexandr hurriedly threw the goat back.
《… … This is not the surface of the lake.”
Beyond the sun-drenched waters.
Swirling magic lights overlapped.
Carly-Alexandre, who realized his true identity, muttered as if it were absurd.
《This is the entrance to the teleport gate… … !》
***
“Looks like the goblins are paying attention.”
On top of the outpost rampart.
As I looked toward the black lake with a telescope, I clicked my tongue and stepped back.
In the enemy information window, the number of people who had been decreasing rapidly and the kill count that had been increasing at the same time suddenly stopped.
Apparently, they noticed.
My trump trap set on the surface of the Black Lake.
An oversized teleport gate.
Go-oh-!
The teleport gates installed horizontally with the surface of the black lake were working well, consuming dozens of magic cores and cartloads of magic stones.
The head of the goblin army was sucked into this teleport gate and disappeared.
‘Once upon a time, Coco’s grandmother clearly said this.’
– Perhaps for this reason, beings from nightmares cannot use teleport magic. If they enter the teleport gate, they are all swept away to the other side of the sea.
Yes.
If monsters use teleport magic, they fly away to the other side of the sea. That’s why they can’t use the teleport gate.
And as soon as I heard this, I thought of this.
‘Then, if I can somehow get these bastards into the teleport gate, then I can give them a free pass to hell, right?’
I don’t know exactly what ‘the other side of the other side’ means, but isn’t it roughly similar to the underworld?
It is up to the rules to be reversed and interpreted.
So this trap was planned.
The surface of the Black Lake itself is a place that is full of magical energy and flutters.
In a place where the concentration of magical power is suffocating, even if you sneak up on a teleport gate, it won’t show.
In addition, the water surface seen from under the water of the lake is full of lights.
Even if the magical light unique to the teleport gate shimmered a little more, it was difficult to notice.
– Very, very large teleport gates, as many as possible. Grandma Coco.
So, this is what I ordered last time. An oversized teleport gate.
Several times larger than normal teleport gates were built, and installed parallel to the surface of the lake.
Of course, the Black Lake is so wide that it is impossible to cover it entirely with a gate.
However, the point where the monsters rise was fixed, so there was no shortage of covering only that side.
So, the result.
[Enemy Information – STAGE 15]
-Lv.?? Goblin God King: 1 body
-Lv.?? Goblin Amir <Elite>: 5 (Kill Counts: 1)
– Lv.35 Goblin Janissary <Elite>: 1,710 (Kill Counts: 300)
– Lv.15 Goblins: 30,360 (Kill Counts: 15,520)
Amir and Janissary are a little less than the original information about what happened underground, but it’s okay. The important thing is the normal goblin’s kill count.
Fifteen thousand!
One-third of the enemy goblins melted away without ever seeing the light of day.
It can be said that it is the beginning of a very nice defensive battle.
“Now we begin, you motherf*ckers.”
I gritted my teeth and unleashed my fists.
“I’ll chew and eat them all without leaving a single one…” … !”
