Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

Luibold did not join the battlefield, he did not even show his figure, he just used magic to send a message to Sarona, bringing the news of the entire battlefield.

The goblins failed to find the hidden bishop, but they immediately noticed the change in the direction of the opponent's attack. A crossbow arrow hit the shoulder armor of the hobgoblin, and the halberd went up and blasted a sneaking drow assassin out of invisibility.

"How did you find me?"

The drow looked at the hobgoblin with some surprise. There was still a short blade left in his hands. The other one that was originally a pair was hung with the cold arc of the halberd in the previous fight. The assassin also made a quick decision and avoided the deadly back move of the hobgoblin by abandoning one weapon.

In terms of martial arts, most worlds follow the same set of rules: a single knife into a gun will result in nine deaths and one injury, and using a gun to force a knife is an entry-level teaching.

The halberd is slightly longer than an ordinary gun or spear, while the attack range of the short sword is not as long as that of the scimitar. Therefore, even the drow assassins who are used to hiding in the shadows and attacking by surprise will no longer have any chance to get close once they are discovered.

Unless...

The drow turned and disappeared into the shadows. Fortunately, this is not a completely open area. As long as the hobgoblin dares to chase forward ten or even five steps, he will have a chance to catch a gap and kill him.

After all, he is not the only assassin here.

But there is not only one "distant cousin" of the goblin here.

"Leave it to you." Kalade stopped immediately after taking a step forward, turned around and attacked the drow who had no chance to hide anymore. Inside his helmet, a small invisibility magic circle slowly operated. That was the "practical function" that Ron specially enchanted for the hobgoblin, which came in handy today.

With Karad's order, one of the two bear goblins beside him disappeared silently. Unlike their noisy goblin cousins, these huge hairy beasts can crawl out of the shadows as quietly as cats. They are one of the prototypes of nightmares for many races.

But the drow may not have heard of this, after all, bear goblins rarely rush into the dark underground.

"Didn't catch up?" The drow assassin who had just escaped stopped dozens of meters away. The battlefield covered most of the jungle. This was an open space on one of the battlefields, allowing him to take a short rest. Although the target was much more restrained than he imagined, he thought it was just that the other party was a little luckier.

Just a big goblin, luck can't always be so good...

A shadow suddenly flashed across the scarlet eyes of the drow assassin because of his belief in the spider queen Rose. He realized something was wrong and immediately turned around and showed his claws to the attacker behind him. The short sword on one side pierced his skin, but the bloody smell had not yet given him time to feel at ease. As his empty left hand subconsciously swung towards the air, a big hand had already strangled his throat!

Suffocation only lasted for a moment. If it weren't for the drow's skin color being purple, the bear goblin guard would have been able to appreciate the other party's instant change of face. At the same time, the ambusher, who was full of brute force and cunning, was about to twist the other party's neck directly, but he saw a twisted and happy smile on his face.

This made him subconsciously loosen his hand a little.

"Idiot..." The drow assassin laughed hoarsely, "Your master only has one guard left..."

With a loud "kaba", the drow, who no longer had a continuous bone connection between his head and torso, fell to the ground powerlessly. The bear goblin turned around and ran towards the direction of Kalade, but the drow would never give him so much time.

The sound of metal clashing still lingered in Karad's ears, and the sound of bones rubbing against each other soon joined in. His yellow eyes were fixed on the tip of the sword that was already within reach, and he used all his strength to prevent it from advancing even a little bit. At a distance of more than ten centimeters, his halberd was also stuck in position, unable to turn back and cut off the neck of the female drow.

"Single-handed attack" is still possible, but... at least it requires someone of Solonna's level. And she can do much more than that - there is a height difference between the drow and the hobgoblin. When she put most of her body weight on the important dagger, the tip of the sword was getting closer and closer to the blue nose.

"Who... are you?" Karad was still trying to break the deadlock, but with little success. The last bear goblin guard fell at his feet. The surrounding goblins were already resisting, but their numerical advantage was no longer obvious. If this continued, the balance would soon be broken.

"'Bad Omen' Sarlona, ​​Sarlona Koletin. Remember my name, and then die in peace." The drow's advance did not slacken at all after she opened her mouth. As a female member of a matriarchal race, she received the best and most complete education, and would never make such a ridiculous mistake.

In her eyes, this hobgoblin was already a dead man. With a little dispensable remembrance, she asked casually: "What's your name? I can engrave it on my sword. You are the eighth opponent worthy of me to do so."

"It's a pity that your strength is really stretched. If you were stronger, or if you had more men, you wouldn't have fallen to this point-"

Karad grinned and pushed the sword away a little: "A woman, you have a really strong hand... Do it!"

Salona was startled by the loud roar from close range. Before she could react, a large number of goblins rushed out of the surrounding jungle and attacked the unprepared assassins. Those who were originally The drow who were preparing to help the leader establish victory had to be suppressed again and fell into a melee with the goblins again.

"You actually hide your strength?!" Salona stared at Kalad, "Even though you have already shown defeat before?!"

"If I want to keep you completely, I have to open my mouth as wide as possible," the hobgoblin sneered coldly, "You can't leave now."

If Karad had summoned the first and second teams to show up before, the opponent would most likely retreat when the situation was bad, but at this moment, the drow, who had been entangled and lost a lot of their numbers, had no chance to escape!

"But you will die too!" Salona's face became ferocious. She could hear the screams from her compatriots without looking back, which made her even more eager to kill Kalad quickly, "You This madman!"

As a drow under Rose's care, Sallona didn't care about silly topics like why Kalad sacrificed his men to achieve his goal. What she couldn't accept was why the other party included him in his calculations!

"As long as the price is right, why can't I die?" The yellow in the hobgoblin's eyes was as cold as jade, "But you are wrong about one thing, you are not worthy of being buried with me - even a crazy woman who has taken risks alone has the right to call me a lunatic. "?"

Salona noticed something bad in the eyes of the hobgoblin, but she was also under the cover of the opponent's halberd and was eager to escape.

"Old man! Let's eat!" Karad's response was the howls of wolves approaching rapidly from a distance! (End of chapter)
