Chapter 194 Goblins Employing Traps?. The officers of the four battalions tasked to secure the mountain pass gathered for a meeting. "Now that we have taken over this location, we have the advantage in the upcoming war." Said Garandel with a stern look. "That is true, but Your Majesty, do you not find it suspicious?" Neo spoke with a baffled expression. "What do you mean?" The elven king asked with a frown. Neo took a deep breath before he replied. "The mountain pass is supposed to be a strategic point, but the colony didn't even send a single goblin chieftain to protect it. I had my men check the corpses and all of them are goblins and hobgoblins." Hearing this, everyone's faces fell. It was indeed suspicious. The elven king nodded in agreement. He was also baffled by this arrangement. Why didn't the colony send a powerful goblin to guard the mountain? "I think this is a trap." Lucas suddenly spoke. His words made everyone stare at him in surprise. Sensing their gazes, Lucas explained why he had said those words. "From the information we gathered, the colony will send their troops here since it is the shortest route toward the kingdom. However, what if that was not their plan all along?" While saying those words, he pointed to the path beneath the mountain. "That is just your speculation, but if you are right, then it could affect our plans." General Ryzel crossed his arms while rubbing his chin. Garandel glanced at General Ryzel and instructed. "General, send your subordinates to the other battalions and inform them about the situation here!" "Yes, Your Majesty!" General Ryzel saluted before he turned around and left. Meanwhile, Alaric just stood there in silence. He looked like he was deep in his thoughts. Are the goblins capable of doing a diversion tactic like this? That should not be possible. Even the goblin monarchs are not smart enough to formulate this tactic. He found the whole situation strange. Goblins were known for their aggressive behavior and greed, but they were stupid. They didn't even know how to utilize the most basic battle formations. Just what is going on here? *** Meanwhile, in another strategic location, a fierce battle was taking place between four battalions of elves and more than ten thousand goblin warriors. "Dammit! We have been fooled! Their real target was not the mountain pass!" Elder Aegris cursed under his breath as he watched the large number of goblins that had surrounded them. "How were they able to come up with this trap? Since when did the goblins become smarter?" Elder Dahon was also stunned. The goblins actually set up a trap for them and they even employed a crescent formation which prevented their troops from retreating. While they were starting to panic, Rosalie sent Sunset a glance and told her. "Release the distress signal!" Elder Sunset nodded upon hearing her words. She then pulled her bowstring, summoned a thunder arrow, and aimed it toward the sky. She then imbued the thunder arrow with more mana before releasing it into the air. Suu! The huge thunder arrow shot to the clouds before it exploded with a loud 'boom'. Boom! "Now, let us break through this encirclement and hold on until reinforcements arrive!" Rosalie shouted. "Yes, Grand Elder Rosalie!" Under their leadership, they gathered their troops to break the encirclement and create a path for them to retreat. The large swarm of goblins exhausted the elven warriors, but they fought relentlessly, unwilling to surrender to the beasts. Rosalie wielded her daggers with extreme precision and great speed. She moved so fast that it looked like she had turned into a mirage. With her at the front, a small gap was created and the elven warriors fiercely fought to widen this gap, providing them with enough room to escape. Just as they were about to break through the enemy formation, twenty goblin chieftains and four goblin monarchs appeared in front of them. The presence of these powerful monsters made them feel alarmed. "Do not falter! They might be powerful, but they are not invincible!" Rosalie's cold voice drifted into their ears, making them regain their sense of clarity. Elder Aegris and Elder Sunset who had experienced the strength of a goblin monarch trembled at the sight of the monsters. "We are fucking dead..." Elder Aegris smiled bitterly, his voice shaking with uncertainty. "Do not falter! They might be powerful, but they are not invincible!" Rosalie's cold voice drifted into their ears, making them regain their sense of clarity. "Follow me! I will show you that those monsters bleed too!" Rosalie fearlessly lunged at the group of powerful goblins. Seeing this, Elder Dahon and Elder Sunset immediately followed. "Fuck! Dammit!" After hesitating for a few seconds, Elder Aegris soon followed. Rosalie's figure seemed to have disappeared, and when she reappeared, she was already in front of a goblin monarch who was holding a bone spear. In the next moment, she swung her daggers with unbelievable speed that she left afterimages in her wake. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The goblin monarch revealed a look of surprise. It lifted its spear to block her daggers, but it wasn't able to react in time. Rosalie's daggers slashed the monster, leaving lacerations all over its body! When she was about to land the finishing blow, she sensed a feeling of danger behind her. Hm?! She quickly turned her body and saw a giant axe zooming past her face. Bang! The axe failed to hit her and struck the ground hard with a 'bang'. Bang! The goblin monarch who had been slashed by her daggers staggered and let out a groan. "I will take care of two of them. You guys deal with the remaining two." Rosalie commanded with a serious voice. "Yes, Grand Elder!" The three elders responded. While they were fighting with the goblin monarchs, their subordinates also engaged with the goblin chieftains in battle. More and more elven warriors fell after being encircled by the monsters. If they couldn't break through this encirclement, they would be trapped and end up being killed! Suddenly, a powerful aura burst forth, and when they turned their heads, they saw a huge human warrior tearing through the goblins' formation. With every swing of his broadsword, more than ten goblins would fall!
