Chapter 213: Assault on the Goblin Army

Human Dao!

Mu Yi deployed the barrier, releasing all the guards.

Formation, prepare to charge!

Mu Yi mounted the big rhinoceros, the little fox climbed onto his back trembling; just a glance at the green wave ahead made her feel today would likely be more ominous than auspicious.

The goblin general wielding a long sword stared at Mu Yi, seeing the sudden appearance of many enemies, it wasn't surprised at all; they had long guessed Mu Yi had this ability.

First Battalion, advance!

The goblin general calmly issued orders; it was no fool, but had personally organized the funeral campaigns of various major races, and that's why it could become goblin general.

The title of general was not a grant, but obtained through its ability.

War Aura!

Vaguely, Mu Yi could still feel the connection of power among the goblins, likely a formation similar to the White Crow Formation, White Horse Formation that can conduct power.

Although the possibility is very weak, but it's not zero, meaning it's not absolutely impossible.

These crude formations, though not as ingenious as the Military Strategist's formations, can already initially unleash collective power.

If he had just arrived here and been surrounded like this, waiting to die would be his only outcome; but after developing for so long, he now has a slim chance to turn defeat into victory.

He never imagined his opponent would be a legion commander, and possibly even a legion commander he himself explored to reach.

Change formation! Stand still like a mountain!

Shields strengthened by Cloud Energy far surpassed the goblins' physical quality, allowing these soldiers to easily resist the goblins' charge.

The charging goblin formation was disordered yet orderly, sparse but not scattered, thus guarding against his possible use of wide-range destructive arts, and also ensuring that when he slew the first goblin, the second goblin could launch an attack.

Rear army continues arrow rain suppression, front army sets up shield wall, left and right wings spear thrust, stop them for me!

This goblin horde was like a surging stream crashing into a mountain, unable to shake the lofty peak, instead they themselves shattered.

Following Mu Yi's order, the soldiers serving as sword-and-shield bearers at the front gathered from the rear or front rows, forming a dense shield wall.

The fine gravel on the ground trembled slightly, as if the whole earth shuddered under this charge.

To be honest, he now doesn't even count as a legion commander.

Mu Yi's face sank, his wariness of the sword-wielding goblin increased another notch; he didn't know what identity that goblin opposite had, but he could be sure it truly understood command.

After barely rushing through the arrow-rain-covered area of the goblins, what came face-to-face was a thick shield wall.

Think about it, if the opponent could truly command millions of goblins, then even a legion commander would likely not be their limit.

Even without the Elite Talent related to archers, merely adding fire damage to arrows would be something these unarmored goblins couldn't resist.

Meanwhile, the soldiers behind serving as archers were all drawing bows, nocking arrows, awaiting Mu Yi's next command.

Mu Yi couldn't laugh; all the previous unreasonableness now made sense, no wonder he got surrounded and captured without noticing.

They waved their weapons, faces extremely frenzied, the hurried breath they exhaled scorching hot, these breaths condensed in midair into a sheet of white rising steam.

Not the fool in his memory who only knows the pig-rush human sea tactic, but a genuine legion commander.

Release arrows!

The goblin First Battalion, having received the order, could no longer suppress its surging, ravaging impulse, roaring together as they stepped forward to charge.

First Battalion, charge!

The goblins charging while roaring instantly fell in swathes like harvested wheat.

The opposing side could, under this frenzy buff, guarantee basic organization; the cooperation among those goblins standing still would be even stronger.

In no time, the muscles on the goblins of the First Battalion bulged like balls, moving smoothly with each action, thick blue veins distributed across their skin like writhing earthworms.

Mu Yi, who originally intended to charge straight in with a pig-rush, saw his vigilance instantly spike to the extreme; he must make the opponent reveal a flaw, otherwise charging straight ahead might turn him into a corpse.

Mu Yi fixed his gaze on the goblin army's position, calculating the distance between both sides, step by step, finally reaching the optimal range for bow attacks, then he directly pulled back his strong bow.

He felt a bit like Zhao Kuo, just stepping out the door and encountering a big boss killing god; leaving without checking the almanac, he was simply damned to explosion.

Fortunately, I now have an elite in hand, an elite with off-the-chart combat power.

Even if the opponent hasn't mastered any knowledge about formation Cloud Energy, just the most basic command dispatch today would be enough for him to drink a pot.

Without the slightest hesitation, a roar, he fired the first arrow, shattering the foremost charging goblin into fragments.

The charging speed was initially chaotic, but accompanied by the charge, the footsteps turned into rapid, tight drumbeats, like a black cloud about to unleash a torrential rain pressing down on the city!

Immediately after, arrows rained down like raindrops covering the front.

His two thousand soldiers under him, though under the Fierce Mark's blessing almost everyone had exploding attributes, equivalent to elites among goblin professionals, but if truly surrounded by a formation that understands coordination, they'd also gain little.

A red halo enveloped the goblin First Battalion that responded to the command; their hearts began pumping at a higher frequency, eyes quickly congested and turned red, surface veins further bulged, bodies began to swell.

On the battlefield, anything could happen.

Mu Yi today finally understood what Bai Qi told him.

After calming his complex emotions, Mu Yi looked at the goblin battalion already approaching within about a hundred paces, and began issuing orders.

In a single word to summarize, this self-taught wild genius could, after systematic training, become a war god.

The spears thrusting out from the shield wall easily pierced those goblins intercepted, after leaving a field of corpses, the goblin battalion was successfully split into front and rear halves by arrow rain and shield wall.

Assault forward!

Under Mu Yi's command, the shield wall instantly dissolved; the sword-and-shield bearers stepped forward with steady strides, gradually advancing, forming a continuous torrent.

Like a towering mountain, with an unshakable momentum, it gradually pushed forward, producing no chaos from battle.

In the goblins whose offensive momentum was blocked by Mu Yi, their hearts involuntarily surged with a hint of panic, which is exactly what Mu Yi wanted to do.

Beheading commanders and capturing flags is about seizing the enemy's will; as long as you make the enemy's heart panic, naturally you'll be invincible, especially for goblins, creatures innately timid.

In the composition of the Iron-blooded Slaughter talent, there exists a fear factor; this is normal, any normal person seeing a murderous maniac will feel three parts dread.

And now, Mu Yi will detonate that fear in the hearts of the goblin soldiers.

Kill!

Amidst the roar, the sword-and-shield bearers' Asura armament hacked forward, carrying a piercing whine of air, easily cleaving the opposing goblins in half.

The battle has fully entered the white-hot stage.

However, it's merely a so-called battle, just a one-sided slaughter by Mu Yi's side.

The empowered Goblins roared as they counterattacked.

But the swords‑and‑shield warrior opposite them showed no emotion, gripped his Asura great sword, and roared as he slashed forward.

Without any extra movement, he swung a single slash to send the opponent to death.

No matter what kind of Goblin or Goblin class you are, a single cut will cleave you in two.

Treading on Goblin corpses and bathed in their splattered blood, the Asura armor on Mu Yi's soldiers turned a deeper crimson, and the power it contained grew even more ferocious.

This made the soldiers' slaying of the Goblins before them much easier.

No need to dodge; they can hard‑block the opponent's attack and then finish them with a single slash.

It was as if the Goblins before them were destined to be trampled.

Step forward; anyone who blocks me dies!

This invincible aura made the Goblins in front feel an extremely heavy pressure.

The gruesomely slain comrades of their own kind caused them to begin collapsing; some Goblins halted, unwilling to face the terrifying Asura before them.

It didn't take long before the first Goblin battalion was slain into collapse, and the remaining Goblins scattered in flight.

The Goblin Grand General ignored the fleeing, defeated Goblins; how could he possibly know the conduct of his own kind?

Nevertheless, knowing is knowing; after witnessing Mu Yi's forces crush the first Goblin battalion, the Goblin Grand General realized he must act.

He must not allow this morale decay to continue.

The sacrifice of the first Goblin battalion was not meaningless; at least it gave him much intelligence on Mu Yi.

"Ook! Take them down!" the Goblin Grand General roared.

From the battlefield situation, Light knew ordinary Goblins could not match Mu Yi's forces, so it did not hesitate to dispatch its elite legion.

"Ook!"

A resonant shout rang out from the Goblin army, shaking the surroundings with a huge, low‑pitched voice that could not have come from a Goblin.

"Ook! Ook! Ook!"

Accompanied by the loud shout, the Goblin army suddenly began to chant.

And with the Goblins' chant, the previously scattered Goblins strangely calmed, as if they had found a backbone, standing still to wave flags and shout.

It is well known that Goblin collapse is usually irreversible; once it starts, there is almost no way to stop it.

Yet a single shout managed to revive these Goblins; in a sense, calling it a miracle would not be an exaggeration.

Mu Yi couldn't help but become alert; this was certainly not a normal phenomenon.

At the same moment Mu Yi grew wary, a gap opened in the Goblin army, and the Goblins deliberately cleared a path.

From the Goblin army sprang a group of especially tall figures.

These were Goblins whose builds were even larger than the berserk Goblins, muscles bulging with power, clad in fine armor; they looked less like Goblins and more like a royal guard of some nation.

Each of these hulks bore a massive double‑edged greatsword, its magical glint revealing that they were all Transcendent equipment.

Mu Yi's mouth twitched; the gear on those Goblins opposite might even surpass the equipment of his own soldiers.

It was unknown whether these Goblins had stripped the gear from the royal guards of the annihilated kingdom.

More striking, each of these Goblins bore two curved horns, as thick as ram's horns, on either side of their temples, arching upward from the crown toward the sky.

"Dragon‑born Goblin?"

No wonder they command such prestige among Goblins; they inherit the Dragon bloodline, so it's unsurprising they are idolized.

Goblins are a cowardly lot, fearing the strong; a Dragon‑born Goblin can indeed make them stand proud.

Still, it's unclear how these Goblins were created, how Dragon blood and Goblins intersect so much; the world's Goblins really know how to play.

—War Aura!

—Fury Aura!

With the Goblin Grand General's wave, a black and a red aura were bestowed upon these Dragon‑born Goblins.

Ordinary Goblins cannot bear the power of two auras, but these Dragon‑born specialist Goblins, the hulks named Ook, can endure them.

Feeling the power surge through them, the Dragon‑born Goblins opened their mouths and unleashed roars.

In an instant, the roar overwhelmed everything!

"Zongwang Prompt: You are affected by the Dragon Roar effect!"

"Trigger mandatory Will save! … Will save succeeded! … You successfully resisted the negative effects of the Dragon Roar! … You successfully resisted the fear effect of the Dragon Roar! …"

The sudden Dragon Roar instantly threw some of Mu Yi's soldiers into chaos; these were newly recruited troops who had never fought in a dragon‑slaying battle, so they were immediately caught off guard.

Fortunately, most veterans saved against the Dragon Roar, pulling the bewildered recruits behind them to take their places.

"Heavenly Dao!"

Mu Yi instantly infused all soldiers with the power of Heavenly Dao, and the divine augmentation instantly dispersed the Dragon Roar laced with dragon might.

"Change formation! Invade like fire!"

"Everyone, charge with me, wipe them out in one go!"

Mu Yi roared and, without hesitation, led the charge from the front.

The appearance of these Dragon‑born Goblins left the Goblin Grand General's gate wide open; the defense ahead was nearly void due to the voluntarily cleared path, so they surged forward while the gap remained.

"Little Fox! Play the war song!" Mu Yi growled low.

"Agu~ra~… Sola~da~…"

A bleak, mournful chant rose, and Little Fox's blessing instantly fell upon all soldiers.

"Zongwang Prompt: You have gained the temporary status: Priest War Song (basic attributes receive an additional 50% (master‑level mastery) bonus)."

"Zongwang Prompt: You have gained the temporary status: Blessing Aura (increased luck)."

Zongwang Prompt: you have gained a temporary status: War Blessing (the damage you deal is increased by an additional 20%)

"Those who block me die!"

Roaring in anger, Mu Yi rode a massive rhinoceros and charged into the dragon‑born Goblins; in an instant he smashed a huge breach in the Goblin formation, and the soldiers behind him surged forward, and face‑to‑face collisions and slaughter began.
