Evolution: Conqueror - Chapter 141
On the walls of the Grey eye clan’s outpost…
The orc warrior in charge of the station made his rounds on the wall, only to find a sleeping orc with a sheepish grin.
“grrr!Get up fool!” He growled out in obvious anger but just before he could finish speaking…
Du! Du! Du! Du! Du!
The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard so he quickly went to check and found a group of Goblins and Hobgoblins charging at the walls on foot.
He looked at their numbers and felt they might have been running from something. so he decided to think of a way to get them as slaves, He didn’t even think as much to even find out their strength because he knew how much warriors were in the outpost and he was confident in his skills.
With such thoughts, he didn’t bother with the gates but had the sleeping warrior alert everyone.
What he didn’t know though was the Black moon raiders or riders were already taking positions and was silently charging at the gate…
On the other side, Moz and her team of ten had already made their way up the wall. Their mission was to identify the leaders of the outpost and clear them as quickly as possible…
‘Shiiik!’ A rookie hunter in the team accidentally grazed the stone wall with his dagger and received a glare from the whole group, especially TuTu…if looks could kill.
Luckily it wasn’t enough to attract attention…
“Let’s go” Moz quickly ordered as she moved ahead. she didn’t try to blend with the shadows as the others didn’t have such skill, she would always lead them physically and teach from her experience.
Meanwhile, the situation at the gate was becoming heated as the outposts captain shouted, “Stop you stupid Gobs!!, you must really want to die!!”
But no one stopped, they dipped their hands within their pouches and each pulled out a Boom rock.
A mixture of red and blue colored marbles flew across the air and landed amongst the defending warriors.
Explosions and Ice could be seen scattered across the scene, As the defending warriors had arrogantly walked out of the gate, they had no where to hide.
During the commotion, the riders swooped in without delay.
“Charge!!!” Urim roared as they left stealth, his target was the Outpost captain who managed to survive the earlier attack.
Huuuuura!!!
Chaos ensued as blood and gore spread across the somewhat snowy ground. Moz and the others z killed the sleeping warriors that looked like they had some strength before going after those on the wall.
The defenders were stunned and didn’t have time to throw down Rocks at the enemy, after all…their Boss was there too.
Urim increased his speed as his wolf brutally rammed into the outpost captain, sending him flying by about 9m. Without pause, Urim jumped off the wolf as he swung his great hammer down at the fallen opponent.
The Sound of the hammer coming in full force broke the captain out of his stupor as he ducked to the side, bȧrėly managing to avoid it. Urim wasn’t going to let go of such an opportunity, He stomped the ground, sending him off balance and began spinning with the hammer… knocking down everything in his path.
shrieks and wails could be heard in the chaos as the enemies scurried away, the defenders on the wall then chose to use Urim as their target upon seeing the captain in danger.
The Rocks thrown bounced off the spinning Urim like a cartoon scene and scattered across the battle ground.
Unfortunately, it couldn’t differentiate between friend or foe, so Urim chose to stop before using his hammer as a spear.
It broke the air as it flew towards the ranged combatants and crushed bits of the wall they were hiding behind. The Hammer embedded itself on the wall and didn’t look like it was coming down, but it served the purpose Urim wanted.
While they scrambled to dodge, Urim charge at the disoriented captain, ramming him to the ground as he proceeded to pummel him into the Earth beneath them.
With his body’s overwhelming advantage of almost 3m against the Captain’s 2.3m height, Urim basically destroyed the captain…
He picked him up by his head and repeatedly smashed down, they were no powers involved, just raw brute strength!.
RAWR!!
Urim Roared as the blood went to his head but he remembered what he was told.
“an overwhelming offense can still be an amazing defense…” He muttered absentmindedly when he remembered Torug doing this during one of their sparring sessions, but he quickly snapped out of it.
He decided to draw everyone’s attention like Torug asked before performing an execution.
“YOUR LEADER HAS FALLEN!!!” He roared out, attracting everyone’s attention. actually they had been silently watching from a distance since the time he had been spinning and deflecting rocks.
With their attention, He proceeded to pull out the captain’s head from his body as his eyes glowed blue. The sigil on his body seemed to glow as well, right before blood splashed across his face and body.
He glared at the enemies before calmly adding, “will you surrender?”
The threat was simply glaring but effective, they quickly tossed their weapons on the floor as the Black moon clan members cheered. the riders circled around in disarray before the Elite clan guards approached Urim and proceeded with their guarding duties.
Moz watched the massive fire raging in the distance silently from above the wall, Her team celebrated as well behind her, no one knew what she was thinking as she muttered under her breath,
“He’s still fighting…”
_____________________________
Torug’s POV,
Still in Brogg’s body, I had Vass follow the other goblin survivors out of the city, while I snuck my way through other places in the fortress city, causing chaos wherever I went and misleading the enemy.
Now I’m sure, things on the other side must have been concluded and it’s almost dawn. I don’t have much time left…
So I decided to use this fool’s body to test out Kharag’s ability despite the many injuries I have accumulated tonight and unsurprisingly, it’s really tough…
A volley of arrows and rocks hails down from the side of the wall again as I struggled to find cover, cursing The hobgoblin for not having any special ability besides his poisons which could be made either liquid or gaseous.
An orc and a goblin approached to confirm if I was hit, so I swing my short sword to slice the orc’s palm and then lunge forward, running the blade through him, the other hand tossed the dagger dexterously… something I doubt I could do this easily with my own body.
Two enemies and cut down one after another.
“eeik He’s still alive!!” someone yelled from afar as I struggled to stand, my breathing erratic.
‘Do not fall’ I repeatedly thought to myself, I haven’t even gotten to Kharag yet.
“Today cannot be my last day” A memory overlap with my vision, it was a memory of the moment I died in my previous world.
“Tch…I really hate it” I finally say to no one in particular.
A new enemy rushes forward, brandishing his weapon with practised skill.
“I remember you. but who are you?” Kharag glared at me, but not at Brogg directly but me.
Shocked, I looked skeptical before saying “You don’t remember?.”
‘Is this a specialty gained from his eyes?’ I wondered as I stared at his gray colored eyes that was glowed and then I remembered, this orc wasn’t a warrior but a Shaman!… probably one who normally dealt with spirits too.
with this conjecture, I opened my spirit vision and it was then I saw it.
A huge man-like thing that was glowing dark red kept pacing behind him impatiently. Smaller sizes people of about 9 in number kept cackling in madness next to him.
No one else seemed to see anything but these things looked like they would attack should Kharag command it.
‘was that his confidence?… Interesting, that’s the secret behind the Grey eye clan?’
“Hehehe” I laughed and Kharag frowned,
He maneuvers his spear expertly and shatters my short sword.
“You killed my Son!.” He shouts, “the least you can do is speak your name!”
Instead of answering, I toss the hilt at him just to observe. and He doesn’t bother to avoid it, as one of those things blocked it for him by smacking it away. It looked like I missed my throw…
“Hehehehe Interesting…” I let out those words out of my mouth breathlessly, I knew what I wanted to know.
Watching me grin and laugh angered him, so He walked towards me with a stab. As he stabbed, the massive man-like thing pushed forward with him…
I cannot stop it.
– Puuk!
I can hear the sound of this life thrumming in my ears and It’s getting even more difficult to breath.
“We’ll meet again…soon, Remember it.”
I lift my eyes to stare into the distance before disconnecting from Brogg’s body. I wasn’t willing to test what would happen if I died with him.
When I opened my eyes again, I was now sitting on Alpha while being surrounded by four guards.
“Hehehehe” I let out a wretched laugh, as I found it all amusing.
Alpha tried to look at me, but I carress the fur on his sides to calm him down.
“Let’s go” I urged everyone towards the outpost, “ah! Now I’m looking forward to our battle more and more….hehehe”.
