Chapter 36 - Emergency

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wendy moved through the forest like a ghost. Although she did not kill many kobolds, she did slow them down.

The leader of the kobolds came to check on the situation. “What happened?”

Wendy took the opportunity to jump down from the tree and stabbed the leader of the kobolds.

“I can smell you!” The leader of the kobolds was already prepared and threw himself at Wendy.

Wendy’s face sank. She forcefully changed her direction in the air and quickly jumped onto a tree to dodge. The powder’s effect on her body was almost ending, and she no longer had that kind of powder in her hands.

The kobold tribe leader had a sensitive nose. She had been fighting continuously, and her physical strength had greatly decreased. It was not suitable for her to attack head-on now. Wendy no longer cared about the kobold tribe leader. She attacked the kobold tribe from time to time at an unpredictable frequency to disturb them.

“Don’t bother about her anymore. She can’t kill too many of us. Let’s chase after the foxes first!”

The kobold tribe leader immediately made a decision. He ordered the kobold tribe to continue chasing after the foxes while he chased after Wendy himself. One chased while the other fled. The night passed just like that.

After daybreak, Wendy’s physical strength had almost been depleted. She had no choice but to stay away from the kobold tribe. She had successfully stalled the kobolds for a few hours and had killed dozens of kobolds at the same time.

Wendy knew that the situation was not good because the foxmen did not have much stamina left. At the same time, Adele finally reached Lin Tian’s tribe after traveling for half the night.

That morning, Lin Tian woke up early. After breakfast, he heard a clerk requesting to meet him from outside the castle.

When Lin Tian walked out, he heard the clerk say, “Lord, there’s a fox lady outside asking to meet you. She seems to be in a hurry.”

Lin Tian looked behind the clerk and saw Adele standing there with a weary face.

Adele saw Lin Tian and asked anxiously, “May I ask if you are Sir Lin Tian?”

“Yes, what happened?”

“The kobolds found out that our tribe are migrating and are chasing after us. Our tribe members are tired and hungry, and their progress is getting slower and slower. Wendy sent me to ask you for help.”

Lin Tian asked, “How many kobolds are there?”

“They’re a large group of kobolds, about 800 of them.”

“How far is your tribe from here?”

“It took six hours for me. It would probably take the tribe members at least one day.”

Lin Tian thought for a moment and said, “Alright, we will set off immediately.”

Adele was very grateful. “Thank you, Lord Lin Tian!”

“Jenny, you stay in the tribe. Mary, you will come with me.”

Lin Tian valued the safety of the fox tribe very much. They were related to his plan in expanding his army and workers. Naturally, he could not let them be destroyed by the kobolds. The taurens had just arrived. He could use this battle to test the taurens’ and his troops’ combat strength.

800 kobolds. If Lin Tian only had 200 warriors, he might not be able to defeat them. However, now that he had the taurens, the situation was different. The taurens themselves had very high combat strength. In the past, they did not have any weapons. Now that Lin Tian had provided them with suitable weapons, coupled with the fact that they had eaten and drunk enough, their combat strength would only become stronger.

Lin Tian thought of the batch of crossbows that had just arrived. He entered the castle and emptied a portion of Storage Space, storing 50 new crossbows. He planned to load all of these crossbows with arrows on the way and then put them into Storage Space. This way, by constantly changing the crossbows, he could achieve the effect of performing 80 consecutive shots.

He also stored 200 bows and a lot of food. When the time came, he would distribute them to the foxmen. As long as each of them could shoot an arrow, they would be able to shoot many kobolds to death.

Lin Tian brought Mary to the town and gathered the army to set off. “All the soldiers, follow me to a battle!”

Coincidentally, the soldiers had not gone out for training in the morning, and the taurens were also there. The number of soldiers that had already expanded to more than 240 quickly gathered. Lin Tian picked 50 strong taurens and gave the remaining taurens a double-sided ax and shield. If anything unexpected happened, the taurens would have no problem guarding the fort.

“Mary, can you ride a horse?”

Mary nodded. “Master, I can.”

Lin Tian took a horse and handed it to Mary. “You take Adele with you.”

He already knew Adele’s name.

Mary said, “Master, you should take Adele with you. Horses aren’t the most obedient when I ride on them.”

Lin Tian mounted the horse and said to Adele, “Adele, come on up.”

Adele reached out her hand and let Lin Tian pull her onto the horse.

This horse was seized by Lin Tian from the bandits. He did not know how to ride a horse in the past, but he had obtained advanced equestrian skills and an increase in his physical fitness from the lottery more than ten days ago. Equestrian skills were not profound, so he had won advanced equestrian skills with his first draw. Moreover, his current physical fitness was 2.5 times that of an ordinary person.

Lin Tian led more than 200 soldiers and 50 tauren as they set off together.

On the side of the foxmen, because of Wendy, the kobold army’s distance to the foxmen had been widened. Wendy had been following the kobold army from afar. Now that she did not have much physical strength left, she did not dare to go up rashly in case something happened. She only hoped that her clansmen could hurry up. She ate the last piece of chocolate and went up to attack the kobolds again. However, as it was daytime, there was not much effect.

The kobold chief kept urging the kobold warriors, “Hurry up!”

The sun gradually rose. When they reached a river, the kobold warriors were all thirsty. They stopped by the river to drink water. Wendy took the opportunity to attack and killed a few more kobold warriors, then quickly left.

The kobold chief roared angrily, “When I catch up with the foxmen tribe, I will definitely kill all of you.”

“Hurry up! Stop drinking! Keep chasing!” roared the kobold chief!

After the remaining 700 or so kobolds drank some water and ate some food, they continued the chase. A few hours later, they finally saw the silhouette of the foxmen, about ten kilometers away from them. In less than an hour, they would be able to catch up!

The kobold tribe leader laughed at Wendy in the distance, “Just you wait! Your tribe will die! No one can save you!”

Wendy’s expression suddenly changed, “Oh no!”

The foxmen at the front also saw the kobolds, and they were all terrified. After a continuous journey, they were all exhausted and hungry. Some of the foxmen did not even have the strength to walk, let alone run!

“Tribe leader, the kobolds are here!”All the foxmen were panicking.

The fox tribe leader, who was also Wendy’s mother, asked, “Where’s Wendy?”

“She’s still behind.”

“Tribe leader, what should we do?”

The foxmen were about to fall into despair! In contrast to them, when the kobold warriors saw the foxmen, they were filled with excitement and immediately rushed toward them..
