The Final Battle - Book 7, Chapter 71: Infiltration 8 (2/2)

At that exact moment, however, a cacophony of shrill shrieks interrupted his thoughts

Arrows screaures had appeared off in the distance and were currently charging madly in their direction

Filo’s expression drastically shi+fted “It’s the large-eared dwarves and Scorched Earth Pygmies! Dae over and prepare for battle!”

The caravan’s guards quickly dis them to form a defensive line The horses were then pulled behind that defensive line, so that they could unleash a vicious cavalry charge at a decisivenoblewoht now and ht not be able to hold our position”

“I saw” The young noblewoman was anxious, but she did her best to reracefully stepped out of the carriage Even though she was unfa ritted her teeth and e-eared dwarves and Scorched Earth Pygmies, on the other hand, were obviously completely unaffected by the terrain

Their feet were very flat and their bodies sht They also wore special shoes that were extreh e-eared dwarves and Scorched Earth Pygth was e, but their reproductive rate was extre numbers to secure victory

Even a level three warrior would find it difficult to deal with over a thousand s them at once

And even if each one of his soldiers was capable of fighting off ten creatures on their own, they still only had twenty soldiers and thirty or so horse drivers Their forces were just a bit too weak

Even so, they wouldn’t let these dahtly

“Fire the arrows!” Filo roared

Arrohistled through the sky, easily piercing through the chests of their targets a horde of enemies

Unfortunately, the archers were too few and the enemies too many The twenty or so arroere only able to claim twenty or so lives The eneave the enemies an opportunity to close ain!”

Wave after wave of arrows flew forth, atte to cull the enemy numbers as much as possible

After five rounds of arrows, there were around a hundred or so corpses littering the floor Most of them, however, hadn’t actually been killed by the arrows; instead, they had been traround

But these vile creatures didn’t seem to care Their bloodthirst was at its peak, and the only thing they could think about was slaughtering and plundering

The first wave of enelyrows of sharp, yellow teeth They were short, only about half as tall as a regular human, and they wielded crude stone blades Their ile and vicious They clambered over the impromptu wall of carts, but were quickly met with spears to the neck

The deaths of their comies and dwarves to retreat in fear

They continued to madly rush forwards as they yelled hoops and howls

“Attack!” Filo yelled loudly

The guards put down their bows, pulled out their blades, and readied themselves to defend their position with their lives Even the merchants pulled out weapons and stood on the front lines with the guards

But as they stared down the see wave of creatures, they felt their hearts seize with trepidation

They knew that their defenses wouldn’t hold for very long

At that ed forwards from behind the horde of creatures

The flames were fierce and intense, and they ie swath of territory Hundreds of the dwarves and pyg as they turned to ash

What just happened?

Everyone was stunned

As the flaure could be seen off in the distance

The lone traveler

So he had run into these creatures as well

The creatures were obviously not picky about their targets, and they hadn’t hesitated to attack an individual like hi person

The traveler unleashed a fireball with a siesture, which ied forth, sending the re in fear

That was a normal fireball

But when did fireballs beco?

Everyone was stunned

Filo had seen people use fireballs before

A nore-eared dwarf Since when could a single fireball becoet skill had basically become an area-of-effect skill, which seeet skill

This was just too far beyond the realm of possibility!

But the other party had clearly just used a fireball technique

In the end, two fireballs alone had been enough to scatter the attackers and frighten thee-eared dwarves and Scorched Earth Pygmies didn’t dare attack the traveler anymore, but they didn’t retreat either Instead, they turned around and rushed toward the caravan

“Help us!” all of the caravan’s guards cried out loudly

Shockingly, the traveler shot the around to leave

He just left the caravan to their fate, as if he hadn’t seen anything at all
