Chapter 177: Army Fighting Tactics!

While Vincent was facing off goblins on the outside, Leilani and Varth opened two small entrances in the crimson dome by pulling back a part of the ice they used to restore and reinforce a part of it.

The entrances were so small that at most, four to five goblins could enter it at a time. Some moments after they intentionally created entrances to the crimson dome, a group of goblin warriors managed to look at them, and they shouted excitedly, moving towards that place and entering it, carrying deep intentions of killing the man and enslaving the woman. That's how goblins did things--they killed the males and left the woman alive as their captives so that they will be able to impregnate them and produce more goblins.

"Leave the ones entering the dome from the right to me, and take care of the ones on the left! If it's too much, just tell me, and I will help you out." Varth said as the goblin entered the crimson dome.

"Let's kill them!"

By the time those words left Leilani's mouth, Varth had already pulled the demon trigger multiple times, releasing bullets made out of the demonic beast's bones that shoot towards the goblin warrior as fast as lightning.

The goblins at the front didn't manage to reach in time, and the bullets drilled a hole in their skulls before charging towards the ones at the back.

The ones at the back managed to raise their sturdy shields in front of them, trying to intercept the bullets so that they won't reach him.

But how could they have known that Varth was using his telekinesis powers on them?

Varth snapped his fingers, using telekinesis to change the trajectory of the bullets. The bullets that were about to crash on the goblin warrior's shield swiftly took a turn to the right, brushed past their shield, and penetrated a hole in their chests, drilling a hole in their heart and bursting out of their back.

They screamed out in pain and dropped to their knees and then to the ground as the pain they felt was too much, blood leaking out of the holes in their bodies. It didn't take more than some seconds for them to die out because of severe blood loss.

Varth cleaned up his side in the blink of an eye, leaving only the group of goblins on the left.

To take them out, Leilani conjured a few shards of ice and launched them at the goblins by using her telekinesis powers. The shards of ice swiftly moved through the air, and although not as fast as the bullets, they still managed to take out a few goblins by their undeterminable trajectory.

Of course, they didn't get to relax for even one bit as more goblins noticed the entrances in the crimson dome, and this time, they shrieked out loudly, notifying the others about the holes in it. They moved towards the entrances and began entering it. However, only a group of four to five goblin warriors could enter at a time, and goblin warriors didn't have the patience, brain nor brawn to go group by group so they began pushing each other, hoping and trying to become the first one to enter it.

Leilani and Varth took advantage of the disharmony in their ranks and attack from a range, shooting frost arrows and bullets enchanted in magic power towards them.

Many goblin warriors died stuck in the entrances to the dome. Some of them squeezed through the gaps, tongue hanging out as they crazily moved towards the humans.

Before they could even take the fifth step, the feeling of death encompasses their entire being, and then darkness took over their light of life, meaning they died on the fourth step.

Of course, more came, and there seems to be no end to these midgets. It's because they have only killed more than a dozen of them, a far cry when compared to more than eight hundred of them in the hall.

Iris didn't do anything and only looked at them as they fought the goblins. She didn't have any offensive magic scroll left with her, and she wasn't strong as a combatant, so she could do nothing to help them in this situation.

Leilani and Varth didn't force her either as they knew that, for her, fighting monsters like goblins meant getting ripped to shreds in an instant.

"What should we do?" Nevis and Peter wanted to help them out in some way as sitting still didn't work with them.

"Just stand still and do nothing," Varth said, focusing on the goblins that stomped their feet on the bodies of their fallen companions, shattering their bones as they charged towards them with their shield raised high in front of their face and their chest.

After watching how dozens of their companion died under the hands of the humans, the goblins acted smart and covered the most vital parts of their bodies before entering the crimson dome.

Of course, their smartness wasn't getting anywhere near Varth's.

He lowered his beloved a little and pulled the demon trigger continuously, and the bullets blasted open their nuts, giving them the pain of their lifetime.

The goblins cried out tears of blood as Varth destroyed their only means of reproduction as well as killing their future family.

The pain was so much that they dropped to the ground, and the ones behind them didn't stop.

They simply ran over them, charging towards the humans.

"But I would feel bad if I don't do anything while Vincent is out there, fighting hundreds of monsters by himself for our sake," Nevis said in a low voice.

"I have the same thoughts as him," John added, expressing how he feels right now.

"Very well, then. Since you both insist, how about hiding beside the entrances of the dome to sneak attack them? And if possible, also set traps to maim and kill them." Varth said, giving them an idea of what they need to do to contribute to the team and help them in this messy situation.

"Alright, we got this!"

"Let's go!"

The two boys separated from the team and went ahead to hide beside the entrances of the crimson dome. The dome wasn't transparent, so the ones outside couldn't see that John and Nevis were hiding near the entrances of the dome, planning an ambush. Many goblin warriors were dashing towards the entrances of the dome. When Nevis saw that, a nice plan was formulated in his mind, making him smile just thinking about it.

He motioned to John, telling him to be ready for what's to come with the look in his eyes. Suddenly, Nevis channeled magic energy into the magic matrix held in his hands, causing a long wooden log, which stretched across from one entrance of the dome to another, to manifest. He held one end of it while John held the other.

The goblins saw that, and they tried to come to a halt. Suddenly, most of them were moving too fast, and they tripped over to the ground due to the wooden pole. While goblins crashed onto the back of the ones who managed to stop, causing them to trip one after another.

While Leilani, John, Nevis, and Varth were busy killing the goblins at the entrance of the dome, many goblin warriors managed to shatter open a path from outside the opposite side of the dome.

However, Iris managed to notice it.

"Sister, there's a breach on the left part of the crimson dome." Iris hurriedly said, telling them that the goblins have tunneled their way into the dome.

"I will take care of them," Varth said, and four mechanical spiders and four tiny lighthouses came out from under his cloak. The spiders jumped from his shoulder, releasing a tranquilizing web that latched onto the monsters. The very next moment, the goblins dropped to the ground, signifying that the tranquilizers were potent enough to knock out monsters in the magical realm.

The lighthouses hovered near him, facing the goblins behind them. They suddenly brightened up, and then a blue beam shoot out from their top, striking the goblins and disintegrating half of their bodies.

"I will notify you about the parts of the dome that need reinforcement," Iris said, helping them out in her own way.

"That's good!" Varth said, feeling good that they have an extra pair of eyes behind their back.

"Please do that," Leilani said, praising her.

Over the next few minutes, the goblins managed to shatter many other places of the dome, but Iris told them about it to Leilani and Varth. They took turns in solving the extra trouble, killing the goblins entering from that in a hurry before using their ice ability to create a thick frosty wall and seal it.

Nevis and John also kicked the butts of many monsters, sending them off to the afterlife.

Goblins were cowards by nature, and when they saw the huge number of fallen goblins, they refused to enter the dome.

"What should we do?" John asked while waving his hands at them.

"Let's go out and hunt them!" Leilani said.

"You stay here with Iris and John while I will go out with Nevis," Varth said.

"Why?"

"We need a place to fall back to. Please listen to me in case the hundreds of goblins outside the dome manages to push us back." Varth said.

"O-Okay," Leilani reluctantly agreed as she was sensible enough to not put others in danger because of her selfishness.

Varth moved out of the dome, and Nevis followed after him, wondering why he didn't even ask whether he was in or not?
