Ordinary Lizardmen were no match for Link, even though he was currently in bad shape with multiple bloody holes in his body.
He kicked the Lizardman who had his arm chopped off and then turned around and cut another Lizardman in half along with the wooden spear in his hand. A Lizardman with a stone axe circled around to Link’s back, but before he could launch an attack, the werewolf, without even looking, delivered a heavy elbow blow to his forehead, knocking him unconscious.
In just one encounter, Link had already killed three Lizardmen. The remaining few looked at each other hesitantly, only daring to surround the fierce werewolf without moving any closer.
A sneer appeared on Link’s face. If it hadn’t been for his arrogance causing him to fall into a trap, the thirty or so wolf cavalry could have easily dispersed these Lizardmen.
“I’ll take care of this werewolf. You go help the others!”
The Lizardmen surrounding Link left as ordered. A strong Goblin riding a massive Warg approached.
This voice seemed familiar. Link frowned and looked at the distinctive Goblin, quickly recalling his name.
Once someone saw such a unique Goblin, it was hard to forget, especially since they were acquainted.
“Gaz Lurvy! ”
Link clenched his teeth and called out the name of the Goblin in front of him.
Gaz smiled and jumped down from the Warg’s back, looking at Link meaningfully. “Isn’t this the noble Count? What a coincidence. I never thought I’d meet you again under these circumstances.”
“So it’s you… It all makes sense now…”
The werewolf glared at the Goblin in front of him with resentment. He had already known Gaz back in Black Gold City, which was five years ago.
They had a deep grudge between them, and he was well aware of the strength of this extraordinary Goblin.
Wild Boar Chief Longfang only met Link after he left Black Gold City, and when he was in the Thunder Legion, Gaz hid himself well and was never discovered by Link.
So even now, Longfang was unaware that Gaz, like Link, was also from Black Gold City.
Interestingly, not long ago, Longfang and Gaz had built a warg enclosure together.
At this point, all the werewolves aside from Link had been pretty much subdued by the Lizardmen.
Link laughed bitterly. Although he knew he had failed, that didn’t mean he was about to surrender without a fight.
The werewolf leader stared at Gaz with a cold laugh. “My dear captain, why did you leave Black Gold City to accompany me in Nolan Forest, where there are monsters and beasts everywhere?”
Seeing that the Goblin in front of him didn’t respond, Link continued, “Or is it that you, like me, were driven out too?”
“You don’t need to know about that!”
With an angry expression, Gaz raised the crudely forged single-edged cleaver in his hand towards Link and said coldly, “Let’s see if you’ve made any progress in the past five years!”
The werewolf gripped the greatsword tightly in both hands and mocked, “Just look at you now, without even a decent set of equipment. What are you holding? Hah! Some leftover scrap from a blacksmith’s shop?”
Gaz didn’t bother to keep bickering, he dragged the single-edged cleaver, which was slightly taller than him, behind him and quickly charged at Link.
Although Link spoke lightly, his face revealed a solemn expression. It was precisely because he had lost to Gaz five years ago that he had been driven out of Black Gold City.
The wounds caused by the wooden stakes were still bleeding, and the potent poison on them was still fighting against the werewolf’s formidable self-healing abilities.
Link was far stronger than ordinary werewolves; he didn’t have to worry about these minor injuries. His blood-red eyes stared fixedly at Gaz, who was rapidly approaching.
“Here it comes!”
Just as Gaz was still some distance away, Link swung his greatsword ahead of time.
The werewolf’s strong upper body muscles bulged, and the greenish blood from the wounds splattered out due to the excessive force. With a terrifying whooshing sound, the heavy greatsword chopped down at the Goblin in front of him.
Undoubtedly, if this hit, the annoying Goblin would be cleaved in half by him.
But Gaz wasn’t foolish enough to collide with the terrifying sword blade. He used the weight of the huge cleaver to lower his body just enough to dodge the deadly greatsword.
The greatsword hit air and plunged into the ground behind Gaz, creating a deep pit. Gaz, on the other hand, firmly propped himself up with one hand and stood up straight.
Next, the unusually strong Goblin gripped the single-edged cleaver tightly with both hands while squatting slightly.
With an angry growl, the huge cleaver, which was much longer than him, was swung upwards at Link’s waist from a tricky angle.
This blow was incredibly powerful. Even with a werewolf’s physical constitution, if they were hit directly, they would undoubtedly end up either crippled or dead.
Link clenched his teeth and tried to retract his greatsword, but he was running out of time. He quickly turned and took two steps forward, using the blade of the greatsword to block his waist.
“Bang!”
With a loud noise, Link felt a terrifying force transmitted through his greatsword. His mind went blank as his entire body, along with the sword, was sent flying several meters by Gaz’s strike. He crashed to the ground.
“Guh…”
Quickly, Link struggled to get up from the ground, leaning on his greatsword. Unable to hold back, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Looking down, he saw that a deep dent had appeared on the sword’s body, and his waist had turned purple and green. The heart-piercing pain caused the surrounding muscles to tremble constantly.
On the other side, Gaz frowned, displeased with his weapon. The rough forge quality of the cleaver had started to buckle due to the previous attack.
It looked far worse than Links greatsword, revealing its inferiority.
“I really didn’t expect…”
Link leaned on his greatsword, trying to stand up straight. While gasping for air, he didn’t forget to taunt Gaz, “I never thought that the once glorious captain of the Black Gold City guards would fall to this level. My greatsword is a low-quality weapon from the slums of the black market.”
“And look at the scrap iron in your hand. Hahaha, the once-hero of Black Gold
City, yet now you don’t even have a decent weapon. How hilarious!”
Without saying a word, the Goblin moved quickly in front of the werewolf. The latter threw a punch at the Goblin’s forehead, but it was effortlessly dodged by a sidestep from the former.
But Link didn’t give up. Enduring the excruciating pain in his waist and the other parts of his body, he spun around again.
With the greatsword behind his back, he used all his strength to swing it through a semi-circle trajectory.
Gaz silently thrust the cleaver into the ground, used his hand to support himself on the hilt, and leaped into the air.
As Link’s greatsword hit the cleaver, Gaz landed on the blade and forcefully stomped on the tip, driving it into the ground..
