Chapter 127 Fighting Red Goblins

"Haha." The sound of laughter reverberated at the entrance of Nightshire city.

The city guards were currently having a good time. Even though the weather was hot, they could still laugh happily as if they did not feel hot at all.

"Captain Noah, I saw you with Lieutenant Valeria in the restaurant yesterday. Did love finally blossom between you and Lieutenant Valeria?" the red-haired guard teased Captain Noah.

"Whoa! Has captain Noah finally found his soulmate?" the blue-haired guard teased captain Noah too.

"Way to go, captain Noah!" the green-haired guard added. "Lieutenant Valeria is the most beautiful woman in the army. It could be said you are a winner in life now."

"Captain Noah, you should treat us to dinner tonight." The brown-haired guard joined the fun.

"That's right." Several guards said in unison.

Captain Noah was a kind, friendly and easygoing person, so they dared to tease him. This was the reason why all city guards liked captain Noah.

"What are you talking about? I don't have that kind of relationship with Lieutenant Valeria. We met at the restaurant because we wanted to discuss the magical beasts that have been appearing near our city recently." a grown man, about thirty-six years old, responded instantly.

The name of that mature man was Noah Byrne. However, everyone in Nightshire city called him captain Noah because he was a captain and an upright person.

Captain Noah was an awakener at Elite rank and also a veteran soldier.

He had green hair and black eyes. Even though his face was average, but his body emitted a friendly and kind aura.

This was the reason why most people would like him right away after meeting him because he emitted a friendly and kind aura.

"Ah, speaking about magical beasts, I fought them two days ago." The black-haired guard spoke abruptly. "Magical beasts have been more active these past two weeks. I wonder what triggers this?"

"We are investigating this ma-" captain Noah stopped his words halfway when he saw Theo and Joe running like their lives depended on it.

'Hmm? Why are they running like they are being chased by a ghost?'

That was the question that appeared in his mind after looking at Theo and Joe.

"Guard! Red Goblin! Red Goblin." Theo and Joe shouted as they ran toward the entrance.

Captain Noah and a few guards walked toward them because they were curious as to why Theo and Joe were running, as if they were being chased by a ghost.

"What's wrong? Why are you running scared like this?" captain Noah asked curiously because he did not hear their words clearly earlier.

"Goblin…Huft…Huft…Rice fields…Red Goblin…" Theo and Joe were out of breath, so they could not speak normally.

"Take a deep breath and talk slowly." Captain Noah did not get their words.

Theo immediately took a deep breath before finally speaking, "Captain Noah, there are more than thirty Red Goblins in the rice fields. They are killing the other farmers right now."

"What?! Red Goblin?" all the city guards said in surprise.

"Half of the guards follow me to the fields. The others guard the entrance and report this to Lieutenant Valeria." After saying this, captain Noah rushed to the rice fields.

He wanted to save the farmers, so he ran to the rice fields as fast as he could.

"Help me!"

"Help!"

"Someone, please save me!"

"Please save me!"

The farmers screamed for help as they tried their best to run away from Red Goblins.

"Agghh…"

"Agghh…"

"Agghh…"

One by one, the farmers fell to the ground, died.

They were not awakeners, so their running speed was much slower than the Red Goblins.

"Keke." The Red Goblins laughed as they killed the farmers.

"No! Stay away from me! Stay away from me," the red-haired farmer ran with a frightened face.

He was currently being chased by two Red Goblins. These two goblins were holding spears and shields.

Even though these two Red Goblins could catch the farmer easily, they did not do that as if they were toying with him.

"Keke." These two Red Goblins laughed as they chased the farmer.

The farmer was even more frightened when he saw their ugly expression. For this reason, he could not focus on running, causing him to trip over a rock.

Bang!

The farmer fell to the ground.

He tried to stand up but fell on his butt immediately when these two Red Goblins were already right before him.

"No! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!" at this moment, his legs suddenly became frail, and terror overtook his face.

Even though he did not have the strength to stand up, he still tried to put some distance between them.

"Kekeke." These two Red Goblins did not kill the farmer immediately; instead, they laughed happily as if they enjoyed seeing the farmer's expression.

After enjoying the farmer's frightened expression for a few seconds, these two Red Goblins exchanged a glance with each other before finally nodding their heads.

"No! Please don't kill me." The farmer screamed and shut his eyes when these two Red Goblins raised their spears.

*Slash…

When these two Red Goblins were about to kill the farmer, a mature man appeared behind them and sliced their bodies in half.

* Spurt…

Their blood spurted out of their bodies before finally, their upper bodies fell to the ground.

The farmer opened his eyes when some of the goblins' blood fell on his face. "Huh?"

"Are you alright?" the mature man stood in front of the farmer and inquired.

"Captain Noah?" the farmer was pleasantly surprised after seeing captain Noah.

Yes, the one, who killed these two Red Goblins in one move, was none other than captain Noah.

Captain Noah immediately helped the farmer up. "Hurry up and go back to the city. This area is dangerous now."

"Be careful, captain Noah." After saying that, the farmer ran toward the city.

Captain Noah nodded his head before finally looking at the Red Goblins. "There are forty Red Goblins. It seems like it will be a difficult fight."

"Captain Noah, behind you!" the green-haired guard shouted when a goblin tried to kill Noah from behind.

Captain Noah turned around and immediately attacked the Goblin.

*Slash…

Like before, he could kill the Goblin in one move.

"Sigh!" the green-haired guard let out a sigh of relief.

"All guards, listen to me! Kill all Red Goblins! Don't let them go near our city." Captain Noah roared before finally dashing toward the Red Goblins.

"Kill them all!" all the guards rushed toward the Red Goblins.

Even though the number of their enemies was twice their number, the guards fought them bravely.

Nightshire city was their home, so they would not let the Red Goblins get close to their city.

*Clang…Clang…Clang…

The sound of metal clashing reverberated in the entire area.

Even though the Red Goblins had more numbers, they did not have the upper hand in the fight.

This was the reason why the Red Goblins were enraged.

"Grrr…"

"Grrr…"

"Grrr…"

These Red Goblins were only at 1-star and 2-star, so none of them could speak. That was the reason why they showed their anger through their expressions.

"Khkhhkkh…" the biggest Goblin screamed.

All of the Red Goblins suddenly fought even more brutally, as if they no longer cared about their lives and wanted to die with their opponents.

Were the city guards afraid?

Of course, they were not afraid!

They still fought bravely because they were protecting their territory.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, it had been fifteen minutes since the guards fought the Red Goblins.

At this moment, both sides were heavily injured and had little stamina left.

They stopped fighting and looked at each other as if they were thinking about their next move.

"Huft…Huft…Huft…" captain Noah was breathing heavily.

'This is not good.'

He skimmed his surroundings, checking his subordinates.

'What should I do now?'

He was thinking of ways to kill all the Red Goblins.

As he was thinking of ways to kill all the Red Goblins, a voice rang out. "Human, how dare you kill my subordinates!"

Captain Noah and the others turned their heads toward the source of the sound. Their faces darkened when they saw a huge Red Goblin running toward them.

Because that huge Goblin could speak human language, they knew that Goblin was already at 3-star.

"Am I going to die today?"

"I seems like I will die today."

"That huge Goblin is already at 3-star. How can we kill it?"

One by one, the city guards lost their will to fight.

All of them were only at Elite rank, so they knew what would happen if they fought that giant Goblin.

Death!

Yes, they believed their chances of winning were zero.

Not only were they at Elite rank, but they were also injured. They were sure it would be easy for that giant Goblin to kill them.

Captain Noah gritted his teeth.

Was he afraid?

Of course!

But he would not run away because he was their captain, and he would not let these Red Goblins enter the city.

"Get a hold of yourself!" captain Noah shouted. "Even though we have to sacrifice ourselves, we have to stop them here. Don't let them enter the city!"

He then continued, "Think about your wife and husband? Think about your son and daughter? Do you want them to die at the hands of these ugly bastards? Do you want these bastards to hurt your family?"

"No! I don't want these bastards to hurt my family!"

"I also don't want these bastards to hurt my family!"

"We have to stop them here!"

"He have to kill them here!"

"Let's fight to the death!"

"Let's fight to the death!"

"Let's fight to the death!"

One by one, the city guards shouted.

"Good! I will treat you guys to a drink if we survive." captain Noah was satisfied. "Now, kill them all!"

"Kill them all!" the city guards roared before attacking the Red Goblins again.

At the same time, Lieutenant Valeria and her subordinates were rushing toward the battlefield.
