Chapter 47: Chapter47-Lord Goblin



"A sound? What sound?"

"Very heavy footsteps. They seem to be getting closer!"

Helena climbed over the fortress wall, carefully discerning the direction of the sound. But before she could pinpoint it, Exiled Immortal returned with unsettling news.

"John! The seventh wave is coming!"

"How many? What kind of troops?"

"I\'ve never seen this kind of goblin before. And there\'s only one of them."

Boom... boom!

As John snapped back to his senses, the heavy footsteps had already drawn near. Seeing the creature clearly, John gasped.

It was a cavalry goblin, but its exaggerated size and the giant wolf beneath it made it clear that this monster was more powerful than any John had encountered so far!

The giant wolf beneath the goblin was the very same formidable beast that John and his team had challenged in the boss dungeon.

The mount alone was already level 30, and the goblin riding it had surpassed level 35!

It\'s crucial to note that once a player exceeds level 35, they can initiate their second class change.

This meant that the monster before them required at least a second class change to be defeated!

Facing this monster at such close range, John knew that escaping was no longer an option.

Even if they didn\'t engage, the giant wolf under the Lord Goblin would swiftly catch up to them in no time, leaving no chance for escape.

They had no choice but to fight!

"John, I\'ll hold off this monster. You all should escape!"

Exiled Immortal, realizing the severity of the situation and feeling guilty for dragging John and the others into this mess due to his arrogance, was ready to take responsibility.

But now wasn\'t the time for self-reproach; it was time to give it their all!

With this in mind, John stopped Exiled Immortal and said in a deep voice, "Don\'t be so pessimistic. We might still have a chance. Lily, can you hold on?"

"No problem, Johnny!"

Lily nodded slightly, clutching her staff.

"Helena, I\'ll leave protecting Lily to you."

"Don\'t worry, I won\'t let Lily get hurt."

"If you feel you can\'t hold on, retreat immediately. Safety first."

The golem was redeployed. Facing such a gigantic monster, the Trigger magic trap was obviously ineffective.

Whether they could withstand the pressure depended entirely on the golem\'s performance!

With a deep breath, John fired two beams of light from the golem\'s shoulders, aiming at the Lord Goblin!

Unfortunately, this time the expected outcome didn\'t happen.

The Lord Goblin swung its long halberd, slicing through the light beams and causing them to explode behind it!

"Damn it! Is it really that powerful? Lily, can you try to separate them?"

"It\'s... difficult!"

Lily bit her lip, directing the spirit of the giant wolf to continually charge at the Lord Goblin.

However, the spirit wolf was only level 20, and in its spirit form, its strength was at least thirty percent weaker than when it was alive.

It was no match for the wolf cavalry.

After a few rounds of attacks, it was shattered by a claw swipe, dissipating into light particles!

Invincible!

This opponent, which required a second class change to defeat, was clearly too much for John and his team at their current strength.

John didn\'t know how players in his previous life managed to defeat such a monstrous being, but the fact that this monster appeared in a major event meant there had to be a way to overcome it.

"Retreat! Use the golem to hold it off. We need to get back to Calia quickly; we can\'t keep this up!"

The reality was clear: this damned monster was beyond John and his team\'s current abilities. Breaking through this would require help from others.

"John, the golem will get destroyed!"

"What\'s more important, the golem or our lives? Shut up and move!"

As John urged Exiled Immortal and the others to hurry, he controlled the golem to block the Lord Goblin\'s path.

As Exiled Immortal had pointed out, given the vast power difference, the golem could only delay for a limited time.

Each swipe from the giant wolf and each strike from the goblin\'s halberd inflicted almost irreparable damage on the golem. The outer armor was like a fragile eggshell, easily shattered to expose the soft and vulnerable golem core!

Although John felt heartbroken, he couldn\'t retract the golem yet.

At such a short distance, if he pulled back the golem now, they would soon be caught again, rendering all prior sacrifices pointless!

With this in mind, John steeled his resolve and stopped monitoring the golem\'s status, letting events unfold.

Finally, as Calia\'s tall walls came back into view, John breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retracted the golem.

Surprisingly, despite the golem\'s outer armor being in tatters, its core remained mostly intact—somewhat of a silver lining.

As long as the core wasn\'t damaged, John was confident he could repair the golem. But first, they needed to deal with the Lord Goblin!

Upon entering Calia, John saw not only the Lord Goblin but also tiger riders, winged cavalry, and more, rampaging within the city!

Facing such overwhelming power, even John and his team found it extremely challenging. Ordinary players were nearly hopeless!

"John, the city is in chaos too. What do we do now?"

"Don\'t panic. The event\'s difficulty can\'t be this overwhelming. If we can\'t handle it, no one else can either."

Based on John\'s experience from many large-scale events in his past life, it was around this time that the system would intervene. Otherwise, if things continued unchecked, these monsters might wipe out all the players!

Sure enough, at the sixth hour mark, a server-wide announcement appeared.

[Lord Calia has now dispatched elite troops to intervene. Please be patient, players!]

"As expected, don\'t worry. Reinforcements are on their way."

John\'s spirits lifted, and his worries eased somewhat.

If he remembered correctly, the general under Lord Calia was a formidable level 40 paladin, having completed a second class change. With his arrival, the tide of battle was sure to turn!

"Thanks to your efforts, Calia City has held out until now. Brave adventurers, I will now join you in the fight!"

From the city center, an elite force emerged, led by General Delvia. The average level of these troops was 35, just matching the monsters!

"Members of the Order of the Radiant Knights, disperse immediately and assist the adventurers. For glory!"

"For glory!"

Next, a notification sounded in the ears of all players, and a dialogue box appeared.

[NPC members of the Order of the Radiant Knights have now joined your party.]

"Lily, how\'s the spirit of the giant wolf?"

"Ready to be summoned again."

"Then get ready. We\'re going to hunt the Lord Goblin!"

"Adventurer John, I am Brick, a member of the Order of the Radiant Knights. I will now join you in the defense of the city!"

At that moment, a heavily armored paladin with an imposing presence approached, the emblem of Calia gleaming on his chest.

"John! The goblin cavalry lord is coming!"

"Then let\'s start with him! Brick, we\'re counting on you!"

"Protecting Calia is my duty! For glory and faith, charge!"

The level 35 paladin, Brick, surged forward with a force that rivaled the Lord Goblin\'s the moment he activated his class skills!

Despite the vast difference in size, Brick did not falter, swinging his massive sword and withstanding the pressure head-on!

Seeing this, John\'s spirits lifted.

"Exiled Immortal, Lily, use every means to attack! Brick will hold the front!"

"I should have chosen the knight class when I had the chance. With the knights\' prowess, I can\'t even participate in this battle properly now!"

Even though she had redeemed a full set of [Epic] gear during the event, Helena felt that her current strength was inadequate for such high-level combat.

She sighed softly, clearly regretting her choice of the hunter class.

In contrast, Exiled Immortal had already leaped into action, charging forward.

"Fight! What a thrill!"
