272 Goblin Grand Pries (1/2)

The Ogre standing before him was very tall and had black skin. His protruding fang was as sharp as a dagger.

Apple swallowed hard. The dominance of the huge Ogre made him unable to breathe.

What a terrifying creature! Apple thought.

”Apple, I told you before not to return. Your homeland has been occupied. You should be thankful I have just eaten. I'm not going to eat you. Get lost.”

The Ogre laughed sinisterly.

He surveyed the gamers on the ground. Then, he grabbed an offline gamer in disdain and threw him at Apple's feet like a puppet before saying, ”Are these your reinforcements? After meeting us, they're motionless. Hahahaha!”

Apple blushed with shame. He was about to fight the Ogre with his life.

”Gosh, it's incredible. The game's AI is so cool. The monsters are taunting gamers?”

”This isn't unusual. However, this behavior is stinky.”

As Apple was gathering his strength, he heard a few Gnomes whispering to each other.

Though their voices were soft, it wasn't because of fear, it was as though they were afraid of disrupting the conversation.

As Apple was preparing to sacrifice himself, he saw a Gnome pick up a small pebble and throw it at the Ogre.

The pebble hit the kneecap of the Ogre and made a tiny ”Pom” sound.

The surrounding air froze.

The Ogre looked at that Gnome in disbelief, while Apple gaped in astonishment.

The few gamers started shouting, ”Gosh! We can attack now? The Plot Animation has ended?”

The Ogre lifted his Mace and looked malevolently at the gamers. At this moment, the gamers slowly awoke from their sleep…

…

Far from the Main Underground Tunnel, 50 Ogres and hundreds of Gnomes, Houndhead Men, and even Goblins were fighting.

The Ogre leader wasn't fearful of the Goblins and Houndhead Men, though he was slightly concerned about the Gnome Magicians.

Seeing as Goblins and Houndhead Men were weak-willed, most of them would flee after a few were killed. What was the use of large numbers? It was only a matter of killing a few of them.

The Ogre leader had a special intimidation technique. That was maiming his opponent but not killing them.

A maimed opponent who looked pitiful had a better deterrence effect.

When the Ogre leader broke both legs of a Goblin and chewed them, the Goblin didn't scream in pain. Instead, he crawled and use a Short Sword to stab the Ogre's leg.
