Volume 2 Spread Wings Chapter 68: Raid on the Hobgoblins
While heading to the destination under Qian Qian's leadership, Levi comforted Sam casually: "Don't worry, we will try to launch an attack first, and then no matter whether things go smoothly or not, we will help you find the goose eggs. Anyway, the place Qian Qian mentioned is not far from where you lost the goose eggs."
Having said that, deep down he no longer had any hope about the whereabouts of the goose eggs.
There are druids among the Grond Frogs, and it seems that their number is not particularly small. There is a high probability that those goose eggs have been used up by them long ago, right?
Sam couldn't help but say bitterly, "Sir, there's actually no hope, right?"
Although it was a question, looking at his expression, it was clear that he was sure of it.
He was not stupid. In fact, when he lost the goose egg, he had already guessed that there were druids among the Grond frogmen. The reason why he had been obsessed with them was only because he was carrying the last wishes of his dead companions. But now he no longer wanted to deceive himself.
Levi sighed softly: "You have been waiting for so many days. Now that it has come to the last moment, are you going to give up?"
Sam shook his head, a smile reappearing on his face: "Thank you, sir, I understand, and thank you for your care all the time. No matter what the final result is, I hope to continue to fight by your side."
Although Levi had already seen through the other party's thoughts, so this was not a surprise, but after actually hearing these words, he was still in a good mood.
Then his expression straightened up: "Very good, I promise you, but now, we should prepare for battle."
Following his gaze, Sam looked down at his feet, then his expression immediately became serious and he took out his weapon.
Compared to the muddy swamps outside, the ground beneath their feet was cracked everywhere, as if it had not rained for years, and there was no sign of anything related to swamps at all.
Moreover, the air no longer had the original humid feeling, but instead began to feel slightly hot.
Levi couldn't help but become more cautious. The enemy could change the terrain over such a large area, so it must be that they would not be as simple as Qian Thief said. This was probably not a task that the God-chosen heroes should take on at this stage .
And as the temperature rose, the surrounding fog completely dissipated. Before, Levi disliked it for being an eyesore, but now he hoped it could last a little longer, because it would be more beneficial for them to sneak attack the earth elves. What a pity...
Just as he was muttering in his heart, Qian Qian ran over and said, "Levi, our destination is just over the hill ahead, but things seem to be a little unexpected now."
"Hmm? What's the surprise?"
Seeing the joy on Qian Thief's face, Levi felt that this accident should not be a bad thing.
"Those hobgoblins weren't just patrolling there, they actually captured some prisoners!"
Levi couldn't help but want to complain. No matter whether it was the gnolls or the earth elves, they all captured prisoners to work for them. Is this the common hobby of the evil camp?
Soon, with the help of some dry trees, Levi could see clearly that a few hundred meters ahead of them, there were about thirty big earth elves, driving almost twice as many fishmen and grunt frogmen, slowly moving forward.
It’s not that they don’t want to go faster, but whether they are fishmen or frogmen, they definitely can’t go faster when walking on this dry ground without any water source.
The murlocs and grunts are both amphibious races, but most of the time they are used to being active near water bodies. Now that they are out of the water, not only have their attributes in all aspects been reduced, but their movement speed is really not fast enough.
Only five earth wolf cavalrymen did not participate, but remained on guard on the periphery.
At the same time, Levi also noticed that one of the earth wolf cavalry had a pitch-black horn hanging around its waist and a net on its back. It looked like the guy Qian Ce mentioned before, that is, their commander, Wolf Boss.
However, Levi looked back and forth several times and did not find any difference in appearance between it and its companions, so he could not determine for a moment whether it was level 2 or level 3.
But this is not important. What is important is that Donna still looks very relaxed. It is obvious that she doesn't take this matter to heart at all. She is just waiting for Levi's order.
Qian Thief also smiled and said, "Levi, do you have any way to release some of the captives and create some chaos for the hobgoblins to facilitate our attack?"
This coincides with Levi's previous plan to launch a sneak attack on the gnolls, but unfortunately there is only one Donna, and neither the half-elf archers nor the half-elf hunters, their archery skills are far from comparable to Donna's.
So he couldn't guarantee it: "Qian Thief, I can let them try, but there is no guarantee that it will be completely successful. Our first target is still those wolf cavalry."
"If the captives don't have eyes, we can kill them all after we kill the hobgoblins."
Despite this, Qian Ce was already very satisfied, because their team consisted of either animals, or people holding small crossbows, or throwing throwing knives. In short, they were all soldiers with a very short range and could not complete this task at all.
At this time, Greek Bear and Zhou Jie Gun also turned their eyes over. The key to this mission was whether they could successfully snipe and kill the opponent before he sent out a signal.
Otherwise, if they attracted three patrols of the hobgoblins at once, no matter how much they thought highly of Levi, they didn't think they could win.
In front of outsiders, Levi must of course show his absolute trust in Donna, so he nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, leave it all to Donna, you can trust her as much as you trust me!"
Since Levi has already said so, Qian Ce and the others would not show any doubts in their hearts, otherwise it would be too stupid.
So they nodded vigorously: "Okay, then we'll trouble this beautiful lady. We will also be ready and cooperate to launch an attack at the first opportunity!"
Donna laughed and raised her longbow: "Don't worry, I will never let you down!"
Beauty or something like that, she had never been called that on Paradise Island.
As the distance continued to shorten, Donna nodded to Levi and then took the lead in launching the attack.
Three slightly reddish arrows flew straight towards the leading earth wolf cavalry and quickly burned while flying in the air. This was the effect of the burning arrow technique cast by Levi.
But this is not the end. Without any pause, the second series of arrows has been shot out, directly nailing the target to the ground without any reaction.
Although the hit rate will be slightly reduced when casting continuous arrows, at the same time, Donna also has more than one skill that can improve the hit rate, which can completely offset that slight negative effect!
At the same time, arrows also burning with flames fell one after another.
But their target was not the remaining earth goblin wolf cavalry, but to kill two earth goblin sergeants instantly on the spot.
A volley of fire from 13 half-elves was enough to almost kill them instantly, not to mention that they were using special arrows that were infused with the Burning Arrow spell, which further increased their attack power.
Although Qian Ce and the others were also very surprised at the power of this rain of arrows, they immediately launched their long-range attacks with all their strength according to the plan they had made.
At once, crossbows, throwing knives, and magic missiles flashed one after another, and the target was still those earth elf soldiers who had been noticed in advance.
According to their previous plan, after Donna sniped the hobgoblin wolf boss who could blow the horn , their next goal was to kill all the team leaders in the shortest time possible, so that the hobgoblins would lose unified command, and then kill the remaining hobgoblins in one go!
