Chapter 34 - Goblin Cavalry

Based on the damage just now, Zhang Xuan guessed that the general's attack was similar to the Sandworm King's. Both had the effect of ignoring armor.

Zhang Xuan didn't waste any time. More than ten Skeleton Warriors instantly pounced forward. The Goblin General's health was instantly emptied, but strangely, he didn't fall!

Moreover, its HP was instantly restored to full. This made Zhang Xuan a little confused.

Under Zhang Xuan's orders, the Skeleton Warrior attacked again, but this time, it didn't cause any damage to the Goblin General.

Only then did Zhang Xuan notice that a staff-like halo had appeared above the Goblin General's head.

The Goblin General wasn't a Mage, so it was impossible for it to cast a spell like this, because it had never even cast a spell.

Then there was only one possibility!

Zhang Xuan ordered the other Skeleton Warriors to spread out. This place wasn't big, and there were a total of five passable intersections around. It wasn't difficult to find living creatures.

When the Goblin General saw that the Skeleton Warrior was about to enter the intersection, it instantly roared angrily.

[Attention! The Goblin General is about to summon the Goblin Army!]

As its voice echoed in the underground space, dozens of Goblin Cavalry riding hyenas appeared from all directions!

[Elite Goblin Cavalry (Level 18)]

[HP: 4,500]

[Strength: 2500]

[Defense: 280]

[Agility: 740]

[Skill: Fearless Charge]

The Goblin Cavalry rushed towards the Skeleton Warriors that Zhang Xuan had sent out like a wave. A few Skeleton Warriors that had already reached the entrance of the cave were instantly bitten by the hyenas that rushed over.

Immediately after, the Goblin Cavalry stabbed out with his spear. The Skeleton Warrior's chest was instantly pierced, and the huge inertia sent the Skeleton Warrior flying.

[HP -4,500]

The Level 12 Skeleton Warrior, which had close to 9,000 HP, actually lost half its HP in an instant. Moreover, the durability of its protective gear was completely exhausted!

However, the Goblin Cavalry's charging skill was the same as a Knight's. It could instantly cause an attack that was several times stronger than its own strength, so this damage to the Skeleton Warrior wasn't strange.

If it were any other professional of the same level, they would have been killed.

The Goblin Cavalry didn't continue to attack. Instead, they lined up neatly and blocked all the intersections. Behind the Goblin Cavalry, dozens of Elite Goblin Archers and Elite Spear Goblins appeared.

Seeing that the Goblin General had summoned a small army, Zhang Xuan was certain that there was a secret to the Goblin General's immortality at those intersections.

At this moment, the Goblin General walked up and looked at Zhang Xuan provocatively. Zhang Xuan also summoned all the Skeleton Warriors. The spear-wielding Skeleton Warriors formed an impenetrable wall in the front row.

As for the five Skeleton Archers, they stood on high ground and prepared to face the attack.

The best way to deal with cavalry was with spears and bows.

"ROAR!"

As the Goblin General brandished his saber and roared, all the Goblin Cavalry instantly accelerated. The Goblin Archers at the back also raised their heads and drew their bows. In the next moment, countless arrows rained down on the Skeleton Archers!

Although the damage done by the Goblin Archers wasn't high, Zhang Xuan still ordered the Skeleton Archers to dodge the shots. There were too few Skeleton Archers at the moment, and it would be a loss if they were lost.

However, this also caused Zhang Xuan to lose the means to stop the Goblin Cavalry. The first wave of Goblin Cavalry quickly approached!

However, this situation wasn't a problem for him at all.

Zhang Xuan didn't move. He raised his staff, and a ball of black energy appeared at the top of the staff. One could vaguely see a painful face.

This ball of energy slowly floated towards the Goblin Cavalry, which was less than 10 meters away from him. Although the energy ball wasn't fast, with the Goblin Cavalry's charging speed, it was obvious that they couldn't dodge it.

When it came into contact with the first cavalryman, the energy ball shattered like a bubble. Faint black energy instantly spread among all the Goblin Cavalry.

It was also at this moment that the Goblin Cavalry approached the Skeleton Warriors in the front row. However, the originally agile Goblin Cavalry seemed to have taken a potion that slowed them down. Before they attacked, the spear had already pierced through them!

[Ding! Level 18 Elite Goblin Cavalry killed. Experience +1,900]

[Ding! Level 18 Hyena killed. Experience +1,900]

Countless experience notifications sounded. At this moment, the Goblin Cavalry was as fragile as paper. The Skeleton Warriors who had completed the first wave of slaughter, retracted their spears. Only then did the Goblin Cavalry charge forward.

The Hyenas bit the Skeleton Warriors in the front row with ferocious expressions, but this time, most of the Skeleton Warriors dodged and immediately counterattacked!

Many Hyenas were directly turned into nucleic acid, and even the Goblin Cavalry on their backs were skewered with candied hawthorn!

Although there were also Skeleton Warriors who were bitten because of the crowded terrain, the damage caused by the combo of the Hyenas and Goblin Cavalry was especially dazzling.

[Health -150]

"Charge!"

After Zhang Xuan gave the order, all the Skeleton Warriors rushed towards the huge cavalry formation like moths to a flame. However, what should have been the Goblin Cavalry's charge to break through the defense instantly turned into a one-sided massacre by the Skeleton Warriors!

Although Zhang Xuan's Skeleton Warriors had yet to form a large-scale army, he didn't only have this professional skill!

There was a 5% chance that the skill effect of the Level 8 Painful Battle would radiate to the four surrounding units.

Although the probability of a Level 12 painful defeat had only increased to 10%, the amount of radiation had only increased to 7.

However, after the effect of the Amplification Dice, the Painful Battle this time directly deducted 80% of all the Goblin Cavalry's attributes!

Be it the Goblin Cavalry or their Hyena mounts, they could be taken away with one slash!
