BXBX NOVEL Chapter 96 Goblin / Goblin Hoard 2
The Goblin army proceeded to cut down the vine the minute it was about to get to him, using the blade he is equipped with.
He succeeded in cutting down the vines, but was attacked by even more vines that wrapped itself around his body and squeezed the life out of him, exploding his body apart with pieces of his body\'s meat fallen to the ground.
The Goblin armies resisted back hard, but were eventually overwhelmed by the vast numbers of the vines.
The Goblin who was running over to the Goblin hoard had already been overshadowed and over paced by the vines he had sprouted out.
Almost getting to the Goblin hoard, he took to the air and dived himself into the midst of the Goblin hoard. The force with which the Goblin used in landing, shattered the ground, causing visible cracks to it.
The Goblin hoard that were within the range of the Goblin were also not left unscathed as the force of the Goblin\'s landing blew them away, freeing up the space around the Goblin.
The Goblin\'s first step after his abrupt landing, took him to the front of another Goblin battling with the vines. The Goblin got hold of the other Goblin\'s hand, and bent it down breaking the inner bones, before he buried his tiny foot inside his stomach.
He moved to the next Goblin in sight, and with a knee strike to his face, he instantly puts the Goblin down.
The Goblin stopped and stood still, then he sprouted out five vines from his waist, lengthening it towards the Goblin hoards who are still struggling with the first set of vines the Goblin had earlier produced.
The five vines the Goblin sprouted out from his body, all stabbed through several Goblins at once, killing them before they could even know what hit them. He stopped the movement of the vines he had first sprouted, and focused more on the five vines attached to his waist.
The vines were no longer rampaging about, and the Goblin hoards now had the comfort of shifting their attention over to the Goblin with vines coming out of his body, giving him an appearance of a standing tiny octopus.
They were all being careful to not charge blindly at the Goblin with his vines ready to attack anyone who is within its range. The Goblin hoards were more cautious than ever due to the vines still having several goblins body in it, with their blood dripping down.
A Goblin threw his weapon at the Goblin, but it was immediately warded off by the vines surrounding the Goblin.
"skill activation, Dust Manipulation!!!.."
The rest of the Goblins in chorus activated their racial skill dust manipulation, wanting to use it to take away the Goblin\'s vision. Dust gathered in the surroundings like rays of cloud, obstructing any physical visual of what dwells in the environment.
The Goblin hoards and the Goblin were no exception as they had all been swallowed into the humid dusty clouds. The dust spread and reached all the way to where the Goblin king was sitting at.
Despite the dusty clouds robbing every living thing physically blind to their surroundings, this did not infringe on the Goblin hoards movement coordination.
With their physical sight rendered immobile, they took to compensating on relying on their instinctual sight. Goblin hoards armed with bows moved to the front while the other Goblins made way for the Goblins with bows.
The Goblins with bow taking the lead, arranged themselves in a straight oriented and orderly manner, all drawing their bows and unleashed a fury of arrow aimed at the Goblin.
The arrows poured down like rain, descending itself on the Goblin who stood still, giving off no reaction or attempt to evade the arrows.
Due to the dust coverage in the surroundings, they couldn\'t see what the Goblin was doing, if he had been gut by the arrows or not.
What they had relied on as a way of knowing or rather assuming that the Goblin had indeed been hurt by the arrows, is the sound of pain that will echo out from the Goblin\'s mouth after having an arrow in his body.
The Goblin betrayed their expectations by making absolutely no sound, leaving the Goblin hoards in confusion on if he had been hit or not. The Goblin hoards were left with no other choice but to wait and observe whatever movements that was going to occur next.
After waiting for a while and no response surfaced in the supposed location the Goblin should be in, the Goblin hoards began to move, trying to execute their next attack.
The bow goblins drew their bows once more and unleashed another fury of arrows in the same location as the first time. And again, they were met with no response.
The choices of the Goblin hoards narrowed down as they were left with little to no choice of having to disperse the dust if they want to know what really became of the Goblin and why he is making no movements.
If the arrows had hit him, he would definitely have screamed out loud. And if he managed to evade getting shit by the arrow twice in a row can only mean that he has a way of seeing even in the dust clouded environment.
With an ability like that, he could surely make his way out of the dust and start picking on the Goblin hoards one by one., is what some of the Goblins are thinking.
The Goblin however had shown none of said reaction, leaving the smart ones among the Goblin hoards to think if the arrows had impacted the Goblin in places that could cause him to die without having the opportunity to make so much as a sound or a squeak.
Whatever the case may be, dispersing the dust effect is the only way for them to find out which of the outcome it really is.
The Goblin hoards prepared themselves for a situation of, just in case. By having the Goblins armed with shield take the lead while the bow goblins and other Goblins not wielding the shield retreat to the back to take cover, as they all got ready to do away with the dust.
"skill activation, Dust dispersion".
The Goblin hoards in chorus cleared out the dust with their skill, waiting in anticipation of what is to come.
