38. Mission Type, Defense (3)
Hundreds of goblins were waiting for us on the plain outside the gate.
“Kia, Kyaa!”
They watched us from a few steps away through the roaring fire.
His eyes glowed red and he brandished his knife in a menacing way.
creaking.
The gate behind it began to close.
A soldier recovering from an injury is turning a pulley.
an intended result.
The retreat was blocked.
All that remains is to move forward.
“To power position!”
“yes!”
A fearless goblin jumped out of the flames.
After hitting the head with a sword, he took the formation. It is a triangle centered on a wizard. I’m on top of the vertex, Jenna is on the right, Aaron is on the left, and Iolka is in the center.
Thanks to the wide surrounding flames, the goblins can’t easily approach it, but we can’t go out recklessly either. had to clear the way.
“Iolka. Stage 1. It’s okay to have weak firepower. Spread the flames as wide as possible.”
“all right.”
Iolka closed her eyes and started casting.
“Keep the goblins out of the way!”
The initial magic fire gradually weakened.
It’s because of the intensifying rain. A few goblins broke through the dangerously shaking flames.
The dagger arced through the goblin’s throat.
Blood spurted in the rain.
Aaron took a long spear and stabbed them one by one.
Even though the skill level was low, it went through long training. He had no flaws in his stabbing posture.
“Kyeru!”
The crossbowman’s eyes flashed. Bolts were fired from three crossbows. That target is Iolka. Two are blocked with a shield and one is struck with a sword. At the same time, he kicked a stone on the floor and threw it away. The crossbowman in the front went round with a nosebleed.
‘Twenty seconds.’
By the time the heat transmitted from behind reaches its peak.
“Turn it!”
Changed the triangle to an inverted triangle.
Me on the left, Jenna on the right as the idol. Aaron down.
Clear the front to create a position for Iolka to shoot.
【Ignite!】
Roaring!
Flames shot from the pierced front. The flames roared and scattered flames in all directions.
“Kiaaaaa!”
The smell of burning flesh in the acrid smoke tickled his nostrils.
“Break it!”
Returning to the triangle in an instant, we ran through the burning plains. The goblins were making a fuss while struggling with the fire.
The hot heat was transmitted through the leather armor, but it was able to withstand it to some extent.
I didn’t put my hand into a burning brazier for nothing.
‘Goblins are weak against fire.’
They have an instinctive fear of fire.
It was fortunate that Iolka was recruited.
If we were alone, we would have had a much harder time breaking through the siege.
‘But it must be raining.’
Soon after, hundreds of goblins surrounded us again.
Traces of flames were left here and there, but the momentum quickly died because of the pouring rain.
Iolka ran through her wet hair and bit her lip.
“Shoot again. One sip per shot. Drink sparingly.”
“I know!”
Iolka put the magic potion in her mouth and quickly swallowed it.
Then he recited the incantation.
Goblins poured from places where the fire had not been properly lit.
It was on Jenna’s side.
“Aaron, assist on the right side. I’m in charge here alone.”
“yes!”
The left side has relatively strong flames. Still, the goblins popped out. Some of them clamored and rushed at me even though their entire bodies were on fire.
I figured out their attack patterns as soon as I figured them out.
He threw his sword through his shield and pierced his heart, killing him. Bounce off bolts and dodge spears. They smashed his head with the edge of his shield and tore his throat.
20 seconds again.
“Turn it!”
Roaring!
A second bombardment was launched.
There is a temporary gap in the hordes of goblins that were besieging us. He ran out against the backdrop of flames. Every part of my body felt numb as if it had been burned, but there was no time to stop. The siege, once breached, is quickly filled. I had to run as much distance as possible in it.

“Kira, Kirra Roro!”
On one side of the plain, a goblin standing on a high rock waved a flag.
He wears a red cloak over iron armor that covers his entire body. Commander class.
“Jenna!”
“Captured. Go!”
As soon as the dagger pierced one guy’s forehead, Jenna drew her bow and pulled the string.
The arrow pierced the man’s forehead.
“talent?”
“Chick!”
Two goblins who seemed to be escorts were beside me, at a loss.
Jenna sent them to the underworld together.
ping! Ping ping ping!
The crossbowmen’s fire was focused on Iolka.
“Don’t stop casting.”
The moment the bolt was fired from the crossbow, the trajectory it would fly, the speed it would be, and how to block it were calculated in my head like a computer. The effect of throw defense. The body also follows the same calculation. Remnants of splintered bolts flew around.
Roaring!
3rd bombardment.
This time the forward distance was a little longer.
Perhaps because of the loss of their commander, the goblin’s confusion increased.
In the first place, their goal should be the northern gate, not us.
In the flames, the tip of the spear was suddenly thrust out.
After slightly dodging to the side, he pulled the spear pole with his left hand. The dragged goblins were caught in the flames and roasted whole.
The condition was, needless to say, dirty.
The rain was pouring incessantly, making the leather armor heavy. The flames, which were not easily extinguished even in the rain, left burn marks all over the body. I couldn’t see well because of the rain and smoke, and the muddy floor pulled my feet.
‘It was hot and it was cold. I’m going to go crazy.’
When he lowered his sword, a goblin split from the top of his head.
It was time for the 4th shelling.
As soon as the body was pulled out to the left, flames swept the front.
Aaron breathed heavily and broke through the wall of flame.
“If I hadn’t done as my brother said, it would have been baked a long time ago.”
“So do what you’re told to do.”
“yes.”
Aaron swung his spear and struck the two goblins.
They touched the flames and cooked their heads first.
‘It’s about time.’
It seems fine, but neither Aaron nor Jenna can last long.
Oxygen is not enough, and the surroundings are full of fire. Fire resistance is a skill that increases resistance, but it is not an immunity skill. It is difficult to move because of the rain.
“This is the second stage.”
Iolka nodded, her complexion pale.
The first magic potion is almost exhausted.
He shouted as he ripped off the arm of the goblin holding the knife with his sword.
“Jenna, Aaron! If Iolka uses her magic this time, she will break through to the river. Don’t stop and run!”
“yes!”
After emptying the magic potion, Iolka started casting.
Grabbing the vial of potion, I tossed it into the face of the goblin in front of me.
Clink!
“Wow!”
Grabbing its face, he pulled the screaming goblin back and stood it right in front of Iolka.
Fluffy!
He collapsed after being hit by a crossbow volley.
‘Forty seconds.’
“Get down!”
“yes!”
【Ignite!】
Flames swirling near Iolka shot out in a straight line.
quickly fell down Bitter mud came into my mouth with a tingling sensation.
【Fire up!】
Kwak Kwah Kwak!
Tens of thousands of streams of rain scattered all at once. A shock like being beaten with her fist came crashing down on her head. The screams of the goblins caught in the explosion rang out.
After getting up, he spit out the mud from his mouth. Iolka, who had exhausted her strength, was staggering.
She put the sword into the scabbard and put the shield on his back. Iol Carr, who was about to fall, was caught with both hands and lifted up.
“This…….”
“Don’t tell me.”
Iolka nodded slowly and turned to me.
“Jenna, Aaron, by my side. Run to the river!”
“yes!”
I ran over the goblin corpse with the two people who joined me.
Holding Iolka, I couldn’t use my weapon. Jenna and Aaron ran out, shooting arrows and spears at either side of me.
The sound of the river flowed closer.
A group of goblins were moving away.
They threatened us from a distance with their eyes shining and their teeth exposed, but they did not pursue us to the end. It was just advancing towards the northern wall.
“It’s pierced through.”
“Whoah, Huiyuu. I thought I was going to die!”
There is a beautiful tree on one side of the river to shelter from the rain.
Jenna and Aaron sat in the shade.
I put Iolka roughly there. Iolka sent her piercing eyes.
“I can’t give you a little more grace!”
“I can’t afford that.”
I said with a smile.
“Take a break. At this time, use a potion of stamina. Apply it on the burn and take a sip. There is only one, so don’t use it all.”
“Okay. Wow, this is very useful.”
Frowning, Jenna swallowed the potion and sprayed a little onto the brown skin exposed outside her sleeve. Aaron started doing the same thing. I took a sip and applied it to the burn marks. A bitter feeling ran through his body.
I stepped out of the tree.
north of the city.
Even though it was far away, I could see the war situation somehow.
Dozens of ladder trucks stuck to the walls and sent the goblins upward. Numerous arrows and bolts went up and down the wall, and most of the goblins fell to their deaths as soon as they climbed the wall. The exterior has not yet been pierced. Edith’s party seemed to be stirring up.
Next, the reason we came here is the river.
The river is flowing violently by the pouring rainwater. A large dam was built across the river between the upper and lower reaches. Made of stone, it doesn’t look very sturdy, but it seemed to last for a while. Beyond the river was a forest.
The dam had collapsed when we first came here.
It doesn’t seem to have collapsed naturally. There were traces of being beaten with something, such as split bricks and dug up piles of soil. If so, it means that the goblins who noticed the reinforcements were coming and took them down.
‘It’s strange.’
The fifth-floor city and the seventh-floor dam were in bad shape.
It is unlikely that the goblins would have the strength or tools to destroy walls and buildings. At best, it was to build a ladder truck and climb over the wall.
“Brother, what are you doing there? It’s raining. Come in.”
“……Right.”
“What’s wrong?”
“Everyone get out of there. It looks like a guest is coming soon.”
Footsteps were heard somewhere.
“I want to rest a little longer.”
Jenna grumbled and came out of the tree.
Aaron followed, and Iolka, who had been catching her breath, emptied about a third of her magic potion and stood next to me.
“Hold on until reinforcements come. They will try to break the dam. Stop it unconditionally.”
“yes.”
The enemy appeared through the raindrops.
Unlike the goblin hordes we broke through, these targets are river dams. I watched them through the rain.
[Goblin Lv.9 X 19]
As special forces, they are well armed.
They were equipped with iron armor and weapons. Some of them had chisels and hammers. I’m trying to find the weak part and split it.
and.
thump, thump, thump!
The sound of the ground shaking with each step.
About 3 m 50 cm tall.
The goblins standing next to them looked like acorns.
Tight muscles wriggled against the light green skin, he was wearing iron plate armor covering his vital points, and he was dragging a huge sledgehammer under his right hand.
‘I thought it was this bastard.’
“Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
cried the bastard.
