61 Repelling the Trump Card
" are you finally ready to take things seriously Alec?" Arthur asked
" nah, not really but I am ready to make sure they can't even escape back" Alec replied and Agnes looked at the both of them more confused as she was not aware which other trump card Alec might have that would help them win
Since three thousand Goblins soldier was no small number, she can't relate to why he looks so relaxed even though they were about to face a small Legion all alone with just five hundred mages
They were at a very big disadvantage and Alec didn't seem to care and she just wished he would disclosed his plans ahead to stop the panic from spreading among the squad members
Just as she was thinking she saw Bryan walking on his horse to the front
" hey no offense Alec but what are the plans for our new attack, we definite need to get ready for that new wave of attack that they would send towards us and am sure you are already aware that they are coming hard at us" Bryan lanzt said
" you seems to be the most cunning and wisest from your family but it doesn't change your nature, you guys are naturally scared when things don't go your way, I just want you to know whatever happens i have no intentions of sending you or your family to the front against this wave, I only want your guys to stay behind and support us, can you do that for me? "Alec said while staring at Bryan
Eye balls to Eye balls,
" Men, it's hard trying to believe you but I guess this is what the alliance was supposed to mean, standing by each other even in times of difficulties " Bryan said
The Lanzt family were in daze at Bryan's words but they realised they prefer being in an alliance with the Gordons family than other families, after all they knew there powers best and they have also witness how they would also try there best to rescue a friend
And the fact they were not used as cannon fodders for the Gordons family just shows just how much better they were from other clans and if there leader Bryan decided the Gordons family was the best to follow then the would follow without no questions even if they felt they were at disadvantage with only 500 hundred mages
Agnes was perplex at how Alec has Been able to keep the squad without a riot happening or anyone becoming scared about the fact that they are about to face about three thousand Goblins soldiers, they just seems to have a type of blind trust
She also trusted him but she felt it's because she felt it was because she was aware of his powers and she knew his golems were not really giving there all but she could not place her hands on the trust the others were giving him after all they don't know him that well
If only she knew Alec had a commander title that affect a very large range of people who are under him then she would have realised even she was under his blind trusts effects just that her main trust for him was above the basic trust his system provided so was not quite obvious to her
****
After about thirty minutes of waiting, there was finally movement among the Goblins as about 3000 thousands Goblins started moving, even at the city guards side were the battle has be a stall in progress stopped fighting and watched, it was like they all agreed to a cease fire as they were more interested to watch what was going to happen
" hey Alec the leader Goblin seems to be among the Goblins coming" Agne said
" let him come, what did he expect that we are one type of weakling he could smash with big amount of numbers" Arthur snorted
" Nah, am only sure he came along since he is trying to get some battle merits, he must have felt killing Alec with the number of soldiers by his side would be easy considering we just went through a very tough battle now"
" as you must have realised now Alec is a target of the Goblin race and anyone who could defeat him would be immersely rewarded and am sure there is no way that (peak) Tier 1 Goblin would allow that to go to the junior Goblins under him " Agnes explained
" Well he can come, I seriously can't wait to see there faces when they lose woefully "
" Gordons spear team, start forming your earth spear " Alec said and the seventy mages quickly got to work and formed there earth spears
" Fire!!!" Alec ordered and they let the Earth spear fly free to the sky like they were throwing javelin, the seventy earth spear flew faster with greater speed than the previous times, it was quite surprising for the mages because they were just realising that there skill was increasing
< up shield Formation >
The (peak) Tier 1 Goblin who was leading said and all the goblins raised a round shield each that the placed above there head, and when the spears landed down this time they were Able to block the strike
Some unfortunate Goblins still had there shoulders and feets pierced but they succeed in blocking the first wave of attack from the Gordons family with no deaths, which brought smiles to there faces as it was an improvement to them
" March!!!!!!" the (Peak) Tier 1 goblin leader said as they continue there march forward towards Alec and his men who were still on the hill
The mages who shot the spear were shocked at how easily the spell they have grown to be fond and proud of was easily beaten
Meanwhile at the Darkbliss area, Clarisa was gloating at the new set of misfortune that has befell Alec as she wanted him to lose woefully
" those seems to be the an elite squad among the Tier 1 Goblins" Agnes said after she finished observing the Goblins walking towards them
" this is going to be hard" Bryan said as he realised the type of Goblins that came after them
" hard, spare me that those bastard have the guts to show up before me acting cool when they are trying to kill me for battle merits, I will make them wish they were dead when am through with them since now am mad, AGAIN!!!" Alec sneered as he order for another set of earth spear to be made
He saw what most people didn't, while they were seeing elites he only saw bunch of experience points trying to play hard to get and he was not ready to let any of them escape, while there hands were numb and shaking from stopping a spell like the Earth Spears
So what if one earth spear didn't do the job he was ready to send it again, and again and again till his seventy mages ran dry of mana
Every one was looking at him perplex as they could not relate to why he would want to still use an attack that didn't yield any result the first time
Meanwhile the (peak) Tier 1 goblin leading was trying his best to increase the Goblins marching speed as he realised that those earth spear spell
Is a lot harder to defend than he thought , his only hope was that the demon across would give up hope on the spear and move to something else, but he soon heard the words again and he felt all his body go cold
"FIRE!!!!!" Alec ordered and the seventy mages still released there spears, even if they didn't feel it was worth it they still didn't dare disrespect Alec orders.
