Chapter 91 - Slaughter Part6
Chapter 91 - Slaughter Part6
Qin Hua absorbed the ten mana cores of the goblins one by one.
Each time she felt as if she was closer to breaking some sort of invisible barrier within her body. It was like she was trying to feed a starving body and satisfy it.
[Damn it. I need more. Woof! Woof!] Qin Hua kicked the corpse of the goblin near her in anger, sending it flying onto the building wall.
She then jumped into a shadow, loitering around the stadium once again, searching for scraps and stragglers.
Lu Chen, Guan Ye, and the group as well attentively followed her every move while also keeping an eye on the stadium. Things were progressing smoothly but suddenly there was a small disturbance.
"Hey, do you think that the goblins are acting weird?" Alex poked Xu Meilin, but that small action made the girl shout and scream in response.
Everyone got alarmed and turned to see what happened.
"Sorry. Sorry. Ahh. I got startled. Umm… Sorry." Xu Meilin awkwardly bit her lips.
"It's alright. We are all pretty rattled right now. Listen, look there. Do you see anything?" Alex pointed everyone to the small disturbance which she had spotted.
In the middle of the celebration circle, there was now a huge goblin, much bigger than the normal goblins. This bigger goblin was sitting on something like a throne.
It was thick, flabby and its huge green stomach was covered in pimples making the goblin look even more disgusting.
And just as they were staring at it in puzzlement, suddenly the big goblin cocked its head to the side and looked directly at the spot where they were standing.
Lu Chen, Guan Ye, Alex, and everyone almost ducked down at the same time as if they had already agreed to do that, but it was too late.
The damage was already done.
Screee! Screeee! Screee!
The big goblin muttered something and the other goblins started shouting loudly. They then let go of whoever they were torturing at the moment and started running out of the stadium.
"Did they see us?"
"Did they see us?"
"Did they see us?"
Xu Meilin and Luo Zu muttered repeatedly, their voices shaking.
Lu Chen signaled them to keep quiet with his finger and then slowly looked up to check what was happening. He, as well, was just as scared as the rest and his heart pounded loudly.
But he had to look. Because not one or two, an entire army of goblins was right next to them.
"No, they couldn't have seen us."
He slightly pushed himself up and looked at the stadium grounds, trying to remain as inconspicuous as possible. However, the next second, he completely froze.
"No… no… NO… We need to leave now." Lu Chen jolted and stood up straight. The others saw his terrified expression and could already tell what was happening.
Everyone stood back up and shivered after seeing what was coming to them.
Screee! Screeee! Screee! Screee! Screeee! Screee!
The goblins were running towards their building in a wild frenzy. The bigger one looked at them and pointed its finer, loudly chortling at their misfortune.
"Damn it. Damn it. It's over. It's all over." Luo Zu squatted on the floor and clutched his head with his hands. His eyes were reddened and his body was shivering.
Guan Ye clutched the dagger in his hand and looked over at all the exits in the building. "Could we reach the next building if we jump across?"
Alex as well hurriedly, looked and nodded her head. "We can do it. We can jump over to the next building."
"But… but after that?" Xu Meiling whimpered. She was ready to jump from the building and kill herself rather than becoming a slave to those creatures.
"It's over right? It's all over?" She held the tabby cat close to her chest and inched closer to the edge of the terrace.
Luo Zu was ready to use Su Yan's body as a meat shield and run away. He was already preparing to make the jump to the next building.
However, before anyone could do anything, a loud voice shouted.
"STOP. I said STOP!!!" Lu Chen yelled at the top of his lungs, trying to calm himself and the others down.
"Just wait. We don't have to go anywhere. We need to fight right here and now. This terrace is not bad. It is actually perfect." His voice was shaking but his eyes stared ahead coldly with resoluteness.
"Look at the narrow entrance of this terrace. We can do this. We can fight them here. They can't come in all at the same time."
"Ye! You stand on the right side."
"Alex! Quick! Stand on the left side."
"Luo Zu! Shut the hell up. Did you want to be one of us? This is your chance. Stand in the center."
"Each one of you has to deal with the goblin on your side. I will provide assistance to all and make sure nobody is overwhelmed." Lu Chen shouted.
"Quick. Quick. Quick. Get to your positions now."
Xu Meilin was still standing near the edge so he walked over to her and shook her back and forth.
"Mei Mei. You attend to the fallen goblins and quickly use their mana cores to refill our stamina and energy. Do you understand? Can you do that?"
"Come on. Come on. It will be alright. Be strong. We will get through this."
The girl blankly nodded. Lu Chen was not sure if she was going to be ok but he didn't have any more time. The loud screeching noises already started echoing.
Dozens and dozens of heavy footsteps sounded from beneath the stairs, along with loud blood-curdling screams.
Screee! Screeee! Screee!
Screee! Screeee! Screee!
"They are here!" Lu Chen sucked in a breath of cold air.
Ten thick ice rods materialized next to him and the two lockets which Qin Hua had given him shown brightly in his shirt pocket.
The next second an endless cluster of pale green bodies started dashing towards them.
"NOOOWWWW! STAB! SLASH! KILL! DO NOT STOP!!!"
