BXBX NOVEL Chapter 67 - Little Shaman
"Use the explosive potions and the slow potions now!!" Elder Jin sprang up and fired his arrow on the high ground. He has attached an explosive potion to the arrowhead to maximize the damage he can inflict. He also only aimed at the places where the enemies are crammed.
The arrow pierced through the enemies. An explosion occurred when the arrow skewered two goblins together. The single arrow penetrated, and crushed a lot of goblins. They were slain with pure force from the explosive potion alone.
"I don\'t know why she brewed a lot of explosive potions. But they sure are effective..." Elder Jin mumbled as he saw every arrow he shot felt like the battlefield had been hit by a huge hammer.
The open plains with no obstacles blocking his field of view were a huge advantage for him. The goblins that were concentrated in one place died without knowing who killed them.
"Just a little more!!" Elder Jin\'s voice thundered across the battlefield. At the same time, he fired several arrows. The arrows tore through the battlefield. Everywhere the arrow passes, a huge damage is dealt to the goblin army. Only dead bodies remained and the wailing of those who lose their limbs as they crawl on the ground.
"Chief, do we really have a chance to win this battle!?" The young villager who gathered the potions asked him.
Elder Jin gazed in the distance.
"There is..." His voice trembled as he saw the hope he believed in breaking through the obstacles in front of them.
"EVERYONE, JUST HANG ON A LITTLE LONGER!!"
"THE ENEMY\'S COMMANDER WILL DIE IN A FEW MORE MINUTES!!" Elder Jin\'s old yet firm voice echoed through the ears of every fighter on the battlefield.
His vigor restored as he pulled the bowstring all the way back, using his muscles to the fullest. When the string was released… It was like the dew falling off on the leaves. Or the feathers falling from the wings or cotton dangling on the ground.
Some were doubtful, some were relieved, and some kept on what they were doing.
"Is it really possible!?"
"We are already struggling here. How can we win??"
"How can the enemy commander die when we haven\'t even move an inch???"
Doubts circulated among the long-range attackers and supports. As they saw the goblins breaching their shield wall. A brawl has been happening in front of them as the berserk goblins and the melee fighters mixed together.
Among them was their commander Akkar, randomly wielding his great ax and screaming. "DIE!! DIE!! DIE!!! DIE!!!"
When Akkar heard Elder Jin, he instantly knew what he was talking about. His strength regained as his ax swung faster and faster with his low health. His onslaught continued, however, Elise called him. "You need to fix something in the back." Akkar stomped a goblin on the ground to pieces. Then he turned to the dual sword man to ask him a favor. Because of a little problem in the backline.
"Hey, Hal!! I\'ll be right back. Command everyone for me and hold on for a few seconds." Akkar trusted Hal to command the melee fighters since he had been following him all this time.
Before Hal could even react, he took a step back from the battlefield.
"The elder is telling the truth!!" He stared at the few long-range attackers who were infecting the others to lose morale.
"Do you guys remember the two people who ran ahead!?" Akkar pointed in the direction of Alex and Ezekiel.
"They are there... Fighting the huge numbers of goblins alone. Without any walls to hide!!! Without any reinforcements to help them!!! Yet they still survived, when here we are barely surviving. Even though they don\'t have shield walls on their front. A lot of healers and supports, or a ton of long-range attackers. " He doesn\'t know what Alex and Ezekiel\'s situation is, but he trusts his instincts, Elder Jin, and both of them.
"I did not tell them to fight in there. Yet they are there!!! Fighting the enemy\'s commander when all odds are against them!!! They are our only hope!! So if you have the time to doubt our chance of winning, then use that time to draw your bows and kill more enemies!!"
Those who doubted their chances of winning looked down. As they met Akkar\'s overbearing gaze.
"If you trusted me, then trust them. Because I trusted them right from the start. And they are our only hope." Akkar uttered one last time before he turned around to the battlefield once more.
"Thanks, good work!!" Akkar patted Hal\'s back as he took over the command once more.
"Everyone is already influenced by you. I did not even need to do anything." Hal uttered as he saw how amazing Akkar commanded the melee fighters. In just an hour-long of battle, he made everyone a cooperate like they fought with each other.
"Everyone is just too good." Akkar agreed with Hal. He never expected that his usual way of commanding his viewers when he played with them would work on everyone.
After he returned to the frontline. Akkar took a deep breath as air condensed inside his body. And roared as hard as he could.
"OKAY, BOYS AND GIRLS!!!
"ARE YOU READY!!??" Akkar lifted his weapon in the air.
"READY!!!!"
"WE ARE GOING TO RUN WILD ON THE BATTLEFIELD FOR THE LAST MINUTE!!!"
"OOORAHHHHHHH!!!!!" Akkar raised his weapon as he charged straight into the middle of the goblin army.
"OOOORAHHHHHHH!!!!" Everyone followed blindly as they trusted their commander.
While Akkar kept swinging his great ax left and right, he kept staring in the distance.
On the other side of the battlefield, Alex and Ezekiel finally killed off all the hobgoblins. While they faced off the goblin shaman. "Your bodyguards are all dead.." Alex muttered as she threw a severed head of the last red-skinned hobgoblin on the feet of the goblin shaman. "What are you gonna do now, Little shaman??"
