33. Striker (3)

“Kei!”

Goblins riding wolves passed us by. Dirt covered the front.

The number is about 27.

If you count goblins and wolves separately, there are 54 of them.

The goblins, clad in iron armor, were armed with crossbows and swords, and the wolves were so large that even horses could be believed.

‘Annoying guys have appeared.’

It may be one or two, but it is close to 30. It was almost cavalry level.

The goblin riders who were galloping past us turned and charged our way.

“What can I do?”

“What can I do! Shoot it!”

Quickly feeding the arrow, Jenna drew a protest.

A goblin who was swinging a knife in front of him fell down with the wolf.

Is it plain?

I frowned. It was like being exposed to the rush of twenty goblin riders. They came running, spraying dirt.

“Kreur!”

“Kiaaa!”

The cries of wolves and goblins formed an ensemble.

Here, you need to use a slightly different strategy than the previous layer.

“Aaron, the moment you run into them, fall to the side and kill them. Can you do that?”

“I’ll try!”

“you…….”

I saw Iolka.

“Once later!”

A bolt flew in aiming for the middle of the forehead. I hit it with my shield and swung my sword around. The upper body of the goblin in the front was sliced ​​at an angle. I immediately rolled off the floor and got out of the charge track.

The goblins swung their swords as they passed me. I blocked it with my shield and took a backward step.

“Aaron!”

“yes!”

Aaron, who was behind me, stabbed his spear.

The spear edge pierced the goblin’s breastplate. At that moment, the bolt flew to the defenseless Aaron. I split it with a sword.

Xena’s arrow knocked off the goblin in the rear.

I said as I deflected the bolts flying at Jenna with my shield.

“Iolka! Do the casting.”

“Casting?”

“Don’t make me say it twice! Didn’t I say wizard? Kill them all.”

“I need time!”

“how much?”

“One minute!”

The goblin made a second charge. This time, the wolf’s mouth aimed at his face. I lay down on the floor and thrust the knife into his mouth.

and roll again

“Cast anyway!”

Iolka nodded frantically and closed her eyes.

【La Gran Cedus.】

A deep, booming, deep voice came from Iolka’s mouth.

A beam of flame burned at Iolka’s feet. It grew thicker and coiled around Iolka’s body like a coiling snake.

‘this… … Magic.’

The heat radiating from Iolka tickled her cheeks.

In any case, Aaron and I, who have short range and lack of mobility, do not have the means to attack first. It was Xena, the archer, and Iolka, the wizard, who had to play an active role here.

“Aaron, block the bolt going to Jenna. Focus on shooting.”

“Yes, brother!”

Aaron spun his spear and hit the bolt. In between, Xena’s arrow flew and pierced one of the goblins.

‘One minute. I’m running out of time.’

It takes 30 seconds for them to pass us by and come back.

“Kia, Kyaa!”

The goblin riders, who noticed the magic cast, are rushing at Iolka in groups. I positioned myself in front of Iolka, bent the arrow and slashed it.

Wizards are the number one target for elimination, whether they are allies or enemies. I can take some time off by myself. However, it is difficult to completely prevent it. He couldn’t handle the frontal charge of 30 goblin riders alone.

“Shields must be hitting during casting?”

In addition to being escorted by party members, it was common for wizards to put on their own shock shield during casting.

“Are you not able to answer? Or are you not hearing?”

I looked back. Iolka’s eyes shimmered with the color of fire as she muttered incessantly.

About 10 seconds before the rider’s charge arrives. Jenna knocked over another one along the way, but there is no sign of stopping. The goblins turned their swords over their heads and kicked the wolf sideways.

“If you stand there, you’ll be swept away by the charge!”

“Isn’t it possible to cast on the go?”

“Brother, it’s dangerous!”

“Wow!”

I grabbed Iolka and rolled it aside. The blade grazed my back and shoulder. His arms were hot and numb as if they had been burned by the flames.

“What, what are you doing!”

“You’re such a nuisance, you.”

If the shield had been unfolded, I wouldn’t have been able to catch it with my hands. As a result, it means that they are casting without any protection measures on the spot.

“It’s a grievance! It’s turning that mana into firepower!”

“it’s okay.”

I clasped and opened my hands where the flames had swept through. It’s tingly, but somehow it moves.

After completing the third charge, the goblin rider sprinted to this place for the fourth charge. That target is none other than Iolka.

If the target was me, Aaron, or Jenna, I would have been able to annihilate them by inducing a charge, then avoiding and counterattacking. But Iolka is different. Wearing cumbersome clothes and with low stamina and agility, this guy is likely to be swept away and killed.

Well, if you want to find a way to do it, you can kill the enemy after throwing Iolka as bait.

I looked around again.

There is a plain nearby, but there is a forest not far away.

“Let’s move the location. Do you see the forest behind you? Go inside.”

“Isn’t it blocked?”

“Think about it then.”

I ran forward and stabbed the goblin in the front, carrying it downward. The wolf on which the goblin was riding opened its mouth and kicked him in the forehead. And he fell right sideways.

“Aaaaaaaaa!”

Iolka, in line with the Goblin Riders’ charge, jumped to her death, fluttering the hem of her dress. A group of goblins passed by him and moved away.

after one rush.

There is a gap.

“Now, run!”

Jenna and Aaron folded their weapons and quickly ran into the woods.

“Are you blocked?”

“I think I can get in!”

As expected, this was a linked field with forests and plains running side by side.

I grabbed the flustered Iolka’s hand and ran into the woods.

“When you enter the forest, cast immediately. The location is the entrance we entered.”

“My hand, my hand hurts! Just a little bit.”

“Did you understand?”

“Because I got it!”

“good.”

I squeezed my hand tighter and dragged Iolka into the woods.

A group of goblin riders returned before they knew it and pointed their crossbows at us.

“Go in.”

I stepped in front of Iolka and blocked the bolt with my shield. Iolka was crying while holding onto his right hand.

“What are you doing, get in!”

I kicked Iolka in the back.

“Treat me like this…”

“There’s no treatment to be received after you’re behind, right?”

Guttering, Iolka went into the woods.

After a while, a red light began to burn inside the forest.

I am the only one left on the plains.

Due to the nature of the cavalry, which cannot exert its full power in the forest, it will come after me. I started counting 60 seconds slowly in my mind.

“Brother, come in! It’s dangerous!”

“Wait. I’ll be right there.”

I took a light deep breath.

[‘Han (★)’ has entered a berserk state!]

This is the second berserk today.

I felt dizzy for a while, but I managed to hold on somehow. I gave strength to the hand holding the sword. Realizing that I was alone, the goblins circled around me, firing bolts and brandishing swords instead of charging straight ahead.

The bolt is blocked by a shield,

Sword meets sword.

“Don’t come out! When you come out, they scatter. Gather these bastards and drag them in at once.”

I yelled at Aaron who was trying to come out of the forest.

The circle around me gradually began to narrow. The frequency of swinging the blade increased dramatically. In the midst of the raging blades, I crouched and counted the time.

‘Does it have 15 seconds left?’

Fill your lungs with air.

Three swords were swung at the same time. I lowered my body to gain momentum and swung my sword long. The sword ricocheted, and one goblin tumbled, spraying blood.

“Move!”

With his shield at the fore, he broke through the siege at once.

No need to think about it after that. I sprinted into the woods. A red light burned fiercely in the forest. The goblins followed me in a single line.

Jenna, who was hiding near the forest, shouted.

“brother!”

“know!”

It seems ready.

before entering the forest. I prostrated myself as if my stomach was glued to the ground.

20 wolves and goblins ran amok right behind me.

That moment.

【Ignite!】

A storm of fire burst out from between the trees, engulfing her vision. The blazing flames engulfed the goblin riders who rushed at them from the front.

“I don’t think it’s over yet!”

I crawled out of range of fire.

It felt hot like a burn on the back.

【Fire up!】

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!

A shock wave hit with an explosion. The flames that engulfed the group of goblin riders exploded all at once. The charred corpse of the goblin was caught in the explosion and soared high into the sky.

【Sublimate!】

A pillar of fire rose several meters from the center of the explosion. The pillar of fire, which contained a strong current of air, rotated like a hurricane, scattering burning corpses wrapped in fire in all directions.

“…”

[Stage cleared!]

[Reward – 20,000G, Iron Ore (B) X 3, Wolf Skin X 5]

[MVP – ‘Iolka (★★★)’]

[‘Aaron’ (★)’, ‘Iolka (★★★), level up!]

I returned to the space-time gap.

Aaron murmured in a bewildered voice.

“What happened just now…”

More than 20 Goblin Riders were annihilated with a single spell.

“Great!”

“Uh-huh-huh! This is the great power of fire! I promised you, right? If I show you magic, you’ll be shocked! I’m the witch of the county of Liebel! Iolka Liebel…”

Iolka, who had been laughing arrogantly, collapsed in that position.

“Uh, sister?”

“This woman is premature.”

You cannot do anything for 1 minute following casting, and the surrounding party members must protect you unconditionally. He couldn’t use auxiliary magic, and his strength, stamina, and agility were less than 1 star.

It’s a heresy that I’ve picked up and operated countless wizards, but I’ve rarely seen. But that’s not to say it’s not the first time.

There are very few such types.

If you compare it to a tank, it’s close to a form in which the caterpillar is ripped off, the armor plate is removed, and only the main gun is ignorantly raised.

‘Still, the power alone is worth seeing.’

It seems the time has come for me to graduate from Geunjungwon.
