Such a future would definitely be a dead end.
There might not even be a chance to escape.
But if this ghost beastman in front of him stays alive, everything could turn for the better.
The demon army wouldn't appear, at least not so soon.
Without the demon army, dealing with humans would be much easier.
"You unlucky yet lucky guy, I'll take you down next ti!"
Li ng cursed as he turned and walked towards the heavy sword not far away.
Holding the heavy sword, Li ng returned to the ghost beastman's side.
Li ng made a cut on his palm with the sword.
Blood imdiately gushed out.
Li ng tossed the heavy sword aside.
He roughly pried open the ghost beastman's mouth with his left hand.
Letting the blood flow into its mouth.
In just a few seconds, Li ng's wound healed.
And the ghost beastman began to change.
The bleeding from its pores stopped.
Its sunken chest started to restore.
And it made a "crackling" sound.
"Get lost, and don't co back!"
Li ng grabbed one of the ghost beastman's arms with both hands.
Spun 360 degrees and flung it with force.
The ghost beastman soared into the sky, flying hundreds of ters high.
Its flipping body flew over the forest canopy.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from Li ng's sight.
Li ng gazed towards where the ghost beastman vanished.
"Hopefully... it won't fall to its death?"
With a sinister smile, Li ng clapped his hands.
The effect of bodily regeneration would last for a while.
Even if it was barely alive, it could be saved.
With the ghost beastman's physical strength, it shouldn't fall to its death.
Standing on the wasteland, Li ng turned and walked towards the direction of the wooden fortress gate.
Li ng didn't rush to leave the tribe.
Instead, he waited a day on the watchtower of the east wall.
That night, the full moon hung high.
The throne tribe was silent.
Not a sound could be heard, utterly quiet.
"Is that guy still not giving up?"
Lying on the watchtower, Li ng felt speechless.
Before dark, that guy had "returned."
Hiding in the forest, secretly watching the tribe.
This left Li ng feeling quite frustrated.
He hadn't left to prevent the ghost beastman from coming back.
The awakened ghost beastman would surely be curious about why it woke up unhard in the forest.
Curiosity would drive it to explore the tribe.
Li ng had anticipated the ghost beastman's return.
But he hadn't expected the guy to neither fight nor leave.
Li ng didn't have ti to waste with him.
"Tomorrow, I'll find a way to break one of its hands, what a hassle."
Though that guy outside wasn't his match.
Li ng was very wary of the demon tribe's strength.
For a re centurion to have such power.
How strong must the higher-ranked centurions and demon generals be?
"Seems like I can't provoke the demon tribe just yet!"
Li ng muttered to himself.
When you're weak, it's better to be cautious.
Survival is the most important thing.
Ti slowly passed, and the night deepened.
After an unknown amount of ti, there was movent in the forest.
A shadow crept out of the forest, sticking close to the ground.
It was the ghost beastman from the day.
It crawled stealthily on the ground.
Crawling over a hundred ters before stopping by a heavy sword.
Seeing the heavy sword, Ghost Hand's eyes lit up.
The heavy sword was a symbol of its rank as a centurion.
It was bestowed upon it by a demon general.
If it lost the heavy sword, it would lose everything.
And beco a laughingstock.
Only dying in battle could wash away its disgrace.
"Stupid goblins, to discard a teorite sword so carelessly, truly ignorant!"
With the heavy sword back in its possession, Ghost Hand grinned.
It looked resentfully at the watchtower on the wooden wall.
From that watchtower, it could sense the goblin's presence.
If not for the strain Berserk put on its body, preventing consecutive use.
It would have taken its head to vent its anger.
"Just wait, I'll be back, you trash born from a groundhog's belly!"
Cursing under its breath, Ghost Hand turned and crawled away like a gecko.
Its speed was extrely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it dashed into the depths of the forest.
Just as Ghost Hand disappeared into the forest.
Li ng stood up on the watchtower.
Looking at the silent forest to the east, Li ng grinned sinisterly.
"Knew you'd co back to steal the sword!"
That heavy sword was deliberately left there by Li ng.
So that the ghost beastman would take it and leave quickly.
That heavy sword wasn't just a simple weapon.
The blade was engraved with symbols representing status and rank.
Upon discovering this, Li ng knew the heavy sword was very important to the ghost beastman.
Since it was important, it had to be satisfied.
In the moonlight, a shadow leaped from the watchtower.
Crossing dozens of ters, it landed in the forest within the tribe.
Before long, on the western wooden wall of the tribe.
A shadow climbed over the wall and ran towards the western forest.
In no ti, the shadow had entered the forest.
Ti slowly passed, and the night deepened.
------
Goblin Forest.
Northern forest by the Goblin River.
As noon approached, the riverbank forest was bustling.
A large group of goblins flowed downstream from the east.
Stopping in the riverbank forest.
In the dim forest, green-skinned figures moved about.
A large number of goblins were assembling three-bow ballistas in the depths of the riverbank forest.
The surrounding forest seed chaotic.
But in reality, the goblin army was thodically preparing an ambush.
To inflict instant, devastating damage on the human fleet.
The ambush line in the northern forest stretched for two kiloters.
Along the two-kiloter line, 52 three-bow ballistas would be deployed.
This was all the three-bow ballistas the throne tribe could muster.
Every forty ters, a three-bow ballista would be deployed.
"Boss, boss, sothing's wrong!"
As the goblin army busied themselves setting the ambush in the forest.
A goblin hurriedly approached Gobu Tian.
"It's an airship, a human airship, flying this way!"
The goblin, jumping and pointing at the western sky, reported to Gobu Tian.
Gobu Tian frowned.
It turned and looked around.
Then chose a big tree and quickly climbed up.
Erging from the dense canopy, Gobu Tian gazed at the western sky.
In the western sky, a small black dot appeared.
Though distant, the outline of a ship could be seen.
Gobu Tian had seen such flying creatures before.
Previously, the boss had shot down an airship with a three-bow ballista outside the goblin nest.
Seeing this, Gobu Tian's tall figure shrank back into the canopy.
"Prepare the three-bow ballista, shoot it down!"
Gobu Tian roared to the underlings below from the treetop.
The goblins in the forest below cheered excitedly.
"No, stop it all!"
At this mont, Gobu Mo, Gobu Gao, Gobu Yi, Gobu Zhang, and Gobu Sheng, five goblin warriors, approached.
They looked up at Gobu Tian in the tree.
"Gobu Tian, the boss said we absolutely can't be discovered by humans before the fleet arrives!"
"Exactly, if we shoot down the airship, we won't be able to hide."
"Now we should have all the goblins hide, so the airship doesn't spot us."
"You're a goblin warrior now, how can you not be as smart as us?"
"I'm going to tell the boss!"
