“Quick! Keep shooting arrows! The farmers in the back, move up and don’t let them break through our defense line!”
Looking at the aggressive small figures, Wesley wiped off his sweat and shouted again, “Behind us is a bottomless cliff; we have nowhere to retreat!”
Hearing Wesley’s call, the other tense subordinates quickly regained their composure.
Accompanied by the rapid footsteps, with the help of the Tier 1 Nine-star Heavy Infantry at the front, a new defense line quickly formed.
At this moment, everyone knew the situation clearly.
As long as they held this narrow three-meter-wide mountain pass, they still had a chance to survive!
On the other side, the lean Goblin Soldiers had already rushed forward at an extremely fast speed.
Clang!
The Heavy Infantry at the front roared and lifted his giant shield, pushing it forward violently.
Directly knocking down the charging Goblin Soldiers and the gravel beneath their feet off the steep mountain path.
“Nicely done! Kill these damned green-skins!”
Seeing this, the morale of the other subordinates around them immediately surged again.
The few remaining Professional Warriors stopped the enemy soldiers who charged up and engaged in fierce battles.
Thus, with the help of the favorable terrain,
The opponent’s attack was significantly hindered for a time.
Seeing this, including Wesley, the other Lords also breathed sighs of relief.
Perhaps if the deadlock continued like this, the enemy would retreat without gaining an advantage, right?
However, what happened next clearly wasn’t as simple as they had imagined.
The seemingly evenly matched battle didn’t last long. While the enemy’s Mage continuously bombarded the rear, the goblin soldiers quickly tore a big hole in the defense line of the professional warriors, taking advantage of their nimble and small bodies.
They then rushed into the second and third defense lines formed by farmers and hunters.
These ordinary subordinates with Tier 1 One-star and Tier 1 Two-star strength naturally weren’t the enemies’ match, so they retreated frantically while swinging their crude farming tools.
Eventually, as more and more enemy soldiers poured in, chaos ensued.
However, no matter how much they retreated, many farmers still fell under the enemy’s sharp blades, screaming.
In a moment, the gleaming swords illuminated the grim smiles on the faces of the green-skins.
The five Lords had already gathered at the rear of their subordinates’ troops under Wesley’s call.
At this moment, amid the resounding battle cries, though there were still a lot of subordinates in front, everyone knew clearly.
It was just a matter of time until the enemies reached this point!
“Wesley, are we really going to die here?”
At this time, the young Lord wearing glasses tried his best to direct his subordinates to move up while tremblingly speaking to Wesley.
“I don’t want to die! I just awakened the talent to practice anemo magic not long ago, and it won’t be long before I can become a mage!”
Before Wesley could respond, a long-haired young female Lord panicked and replied.
“I don’t want to die either!”
Another short-haired female Lord, with reddened eyes, nodded repeatedly.
And the long-haired male Lord who had been smug earlier had already turned pale and trembling, hiding behind several people.
“Don’t give up the last hope; we must fight to the end!”
Clasping the iron axe firmly, Wesley took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Perhaps there will be a turn of events!”
“Wesley, are you… are you saying someone will save us?!”
Hearing his words, the short-haired female Lord’s eyes suddenly filled with an irrepressible hope and eagerly asked.
“Really?”
Hearing this, the young Lord wearing glasses brightened up for a moment. Still, his expression soon dimmed again, “But how could any Lord come to this remote and dangerous cliff with the battle happening?”
“Yeah, other Lords would be running away from the danger of a war happening here instead of coming to help voluntarily.”
The long-haired male Lord, shivering, chimed in despairingly.
As they spoke, the five people’s spirits dropped again.
At that moment, a group of nimble and short Goblin Soldiers had broken through the last defense line and were charging crazily towards the five of them!
“Humans! Die!”
With a hoarse roar, the Goblin Squad Leader leaped into the air, the cold gleam of the blade in his hand flashing towards the short-haired female Lord.
Wesley and the other four were already surrounded, and countless blood-stained blades, accompanied by a muffled whistling sound, slashed towards them without hesitation.
“If there really is a god in this world, please save us… ”
At this moment, the short-haired female Lord, who knew that she couldn’t escape the calamity, closed her eyes with a look of resignation.
Without a doubt, in the next second, these five Lords were sure to be drenched in blood on the spot!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At that moment, swift figures, each carrying sharp blades, whizzed by like dazzling meteorites streaking across the sky.
