Chapter 111: Get Lost, Don’t Co Back
That kind of future would definitely be a dead end.
There might not even be a chance to escape in the end.
But if this Ghost Beastman in front of him were allowed to live, everything would improve.
The Demon Army wouldn’t appear, or at least not so quickly.
Without the Demon Army, dealing with humans as the only enemy would be much easier.
“You unlucky yet fortunate bastard, I’ll finish you off next ti!”
Li ng cursed as he turned and walked toward the heavy sword not far away.
With the heavy sword in hand, Li ng returned to the Ghost Beastman’s side.
Li ng slashed his palm with the sword.
Blood gushed out instantly.
Li ng discarded the heavy sword.
He then forcefully pried open the Ghost Beastman’s mouth with his left hand.
Letting the blood flow into its mouth.
Within seconds, Li ng’s wound healed.
And the Ghost Beastman began to change.
No more blood flowed from its pores.
Its sunken chest also started returning to normal.
A cracking sound could be heard.
“Get lost, and don’t co back!”
Li ng grabbed one of the Ghost Beastman’s arms with both hands.
He spun 360 degrees and threw it with all his strength.
The Ghost Beastman shot into the sky, flying hundreds of ters high.
Its spinning body swept over the forest canopy.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from Li ng’s sight.
Li ng gazed toward where the Ghost Beastman vanished.
“Shouldn’t... fall to its death, right?”
With a sinister smile, Li ng clapped his hands.
The regenerative effect on its body would last for a while.
Even if it was barely alive, it would survive.
With the Ghost Beastman’s physical resilience, it wouldn’t die from the fall.
Standing on the wasteland, Li ng turned toward the wooden stockade gate.
He didn’t leave the tribe imdiately.
Instead, he stayed for a day at the watchtower on the eastern wall.
Night ca, and the full moon hung high.
The Throne Tribe was deathly silent.
Not a single sound could be heard, as quiet as a grave.
“Is that guy still not giving up?”
Lying atop the watchtower, Li ng felt helpless.
Before nightfall, that guy had already “returned.”
It was hiding in the forest, secretly observing the tribe.
This left Li ng quite annoyed.
The reason he hadn’t left was to prevent the Ghost Beastman from coming back.
The Ghost Beastman, upon waking, would undoubtedly be curious about why it was alive and well in the forest.
That curiosity would drive it to investigate the tribe.
Li ng had anticipated the Ghost Beastman’s return.
What he hadn’t expected was that the guy wouldn’t fight, nor would it leave.
Li ng didn’t have the ti to waste with it.
“Tomorrow, I’ll figure out how to cut off one of its arms. Such a nuisance.”
Though the guy outside wasn’t his match, Li ng was deeply wary of the Demon Army’s strength.
If even a re centurion had such power, how strong would the commanders or generals be?
“It seems I shouldn’t provoke the Demons for now!”
Li ng muttered to himself.
When you’re weak, you have to be cautious.
Staying alive was the most important thing.
Ti ticked away, and the night grew deeper.
Before long, there was movent in the forest.
A dark figure crept out from the forest, hugging the ground.
It was the Ghost Beastman from earlier.
It slithered across the ground stealthily.
After crawling for over a hundred ters, it stopped by a heavy sword.
When it saw the heavy sword, its eyes lit up.
The heavy sword symbolized its rank as a centurion.
It was a gift from the Demon General.
If it lost the sword, it would lose everything.
It would also beco a laughingstock.
Only death in battle could cleanse it of its sha.
“Such a foolish Goblin, casually throwing away a teoric iron sword. Doesn’t know its value!”
Now reunited with its heavy sword, the Ghost Beastman grinned.
It cast a resentful glance at the watchtower atop the wooden wall.
From that tower, it could sense the Goblin’s presence.
If only the burden of berserk mode on its body wasn’t so great, and it couldn’t be used consecutively.
It would have taken its head to appease its anger.
“Just you wait, I’ll be back, you trash born from a Ground Mouse’s belly!”
Cursing under its breath, the Ghost Beastman turned and crawled away like a gecko.
Its speed was astonishing, vanishing into the depths of the forest in the blink of an eye.
As the Ghost Beastman disappeared into the forest, Li ng stood up on the watchtower.
Gazing at the silent eastern forest, Li ng grinned sinisterly.
“Knew you’d co back to steal the sword!”
That heavy sword had been deliberately left there by Li ng.
It was ant for the Ghost Beastman to take and leave quickly.
That heavy sword wasn’t just any weapon.
Its blade bore engravings signifying rank and status.
Upon noticing this, Li ng knew how important the sword was to the Ghost Beastman.
If it was sothing important, then naturally, he had to satisfy it.
Under the moonlight, a shadow leaped from the watchtower.
It covered dozens of ters before landing in the forest within the tribe.
Not long after, on the western wooden wall of the tribe.
A shadow climbed over the wall, heading west into the forest.
Soon, the shadow disappeared into the forest.
Ti ticked away, and the night grew deeper.
------
Goblin Forest.
Northern bank of Goblin River.
By noon, the riverside forest was abuzz with activity.
A massive group of Goblins traveled downstream from the east.
Stopping in the riverside forest.
In the dim forest, green-skinned figures moved en masse.
A large number of Goblins were assembling Triple-bow Ballistas deep in the forest.
The surrounding forest appeared chaotic.
In truth, the Goblin army was preparing an ambush in an orderly manner.
To deliver a devastating blow to the human fleet.
The ambush line stretched two kiloters through the northern forest.
Fifty-two Triple-bow Ballistas were to be deployed along the two-kiloter line.
This was all the Triple-bow Ballistas the Throne Tribe could muster.
Every forty ters, one ballista would be placed.
“Boss, boss, bad news!”
While the Goblin army busied themselves setting up the ambush.
A Goblin rushed toward Gobu Tian.
“It’s an airship! A human airship, flying this way!”
The Goblin jumped and pointed toward the western sky.
Gobu Tian frowned deeply.
It turned to look around.
Then selected a large tree and climbed it swiftly.
Erging from the thick canopy, Gobu Tian peered into the western sky.
A small black dot appeared in the western sky.
Though distant, the outline of a ship could be seen.
Gobu Tian had seen such skyborne monstrosities before.
Previously, the boss had used Triple-bow Ballistas to bring down an airship outside the Goblin Cave.
Upon seeing this, Gobu Tian’s towering fra retreated into the canopy.
“Prepare the Triple-bow Ballistas, shoot it down!”
Gobu Tian roared from the treetop to the underlings below.
The Goblins in the forest below shouted in excitent.
“No, stop everything!”
At this mont, Gobu Mo, Gobu Gao, Gobu Yi, Gobu Zhang, and Gobu Sheng, five Goblin warriors, arrived.
They looked up at Gobu Tian in the tree.
“Gobu Tian, the boss said we mustn’t be discovered by humans before the fleet arrives!”
“Exactly! If we shoot down the airship, we’ll lose our cover.”
“Now is the ti to make all Goblins hide and avoid detection by the airship.”
“You’re a Goblin warrior now; how can you still not be smarter than us?”
“I’m going to tell the boss!”
