Red Forest Village Battle
“It must be high enough that the three-eyed knolls cannot jump over it, and it must be strong so that it cannot fall over. Also, hang as many torches as you can on it.”
“Okay. I will tell you right away.”
People got annoyed when I told them to dismantle and recreate the well-stacked obstacles that were difficult to even dismantle at the entrance. Originally, working twice is the most beggarly law. However, thanks to an adventurer who was a carpenter, a narrow and elongated passage was quickly created on both sides of the inside of the entrance.
“I need someone to support me.”
“There should be ten people. It’s different from people who play three-eyed.”
Everyone came out to do it, but those who could block the entrance with shields and long weapons were selected. The rest have to climb up the wooden fence and block the side leaks. Then, in order to gather the three-eyed gnolls in one place as much as possible, he started pouring feces on the wooden fence except for the area near the entrance to Gear Nose.
“Wow!”
“Just sh*t is enough. Keep yours because you don’t need them.”
There were people who vomited one after another, but I was able to finish it well. Hyeon-jun borrowed a cheap grebe from the guards to protect his calf. Others stick their upper bodies out on the wooden fence, but Hyeon-jun has to fight head-on. Those who crawl on all fours are playing three-eyed. If you get bitten on the leg by a creeper on the floor, the irreparable will happen.
“Do you have any other armor?”
“Guards originally had shields, so it’s just Greaves.”
The thighs are clearly exposed, but it can’t be helped. Even among adventurers, few wear armor that covers the lower body. This is because covering the upper body is a priority. In the end, I decided to wrap the three-eyed gnoll’s hide around my feet and thighs so that it wouldn’t get in the way. As soon as we were ready, we had an early dinner. The villagers, who became one while watching Hyun-jun’s dance, provided food. Seeing them preparing for the sit-in, I could see that they were nervous because they thought they could really die. Then the sun went down and the torches began to go up on the wooden fence one by one.
“Ah, you’re a b*tch.”
“Hey, were you scared? Were you scared?”
“The map is trembling and screaming.”
The adventurers on the fence were whispering and trying to relax. On the other hand, the atmosphere at the entrance, which was to be the biggest battlefield, subsided calmly. It was because of Hyeon-joon sitting leaning behind an obstacle. Holding the longsword in his arms and lowering his eyes quietly, Hyeonjun felt like a sharpened knife, so he couldn’t even speak to him carelessly. Contrary to the violent temperament he showed before, when he picked up the sword and made up his mind, it was like a blade without a heart. However, the adventurers who were hiding behind the obstacles at the entrance were rather reassured by the appearance and were able to relax.
“A man has come.”
Hyunjoon murmured softly. The adventurers hiding behind the obstacle stopped breathing. It was because he had listened to the advice of an adventurer who was familiar with Knoll and deliberately left the entrance wide open, waiting for scouting. Hyeon-joon’s senses, straight as a blade, felt him hovering near the entrance and spinning around the fence.
“I will be back soon.”
The adventurers didn’t hear anything, but they stood up with their weapons and leaned against the obstacle. As they gestured over the barrier, silent gestures passed between those crouching. Soon after, Hyeon-jun quietly stood up and drew his longsword silently and slowly. As he drew his sword, the adventurers next to him felt goosebumps running down their backs. It’s like an ice pick stuck in my spine.
One of the guards on the wooden fence peeked out his head to look around and caught his breath when he saw the darkness rising. Countless three-eyed knolls are quietly approaching. As he hid behind a wooden fence and waved his hand, the captain of the guard raised his hand slightly. When the three-eyed gnolls got within a reasonable distance, the captain of the guard lowered his hand.
Shhh! Hiss!
Pak! Cucumber!
“Cheung! kong! Knock!”
The crouching archers jumped up, fired their bows, and then fired free fire. The three-eyed gnolls hesitated for a moment in surprise, but the confusion soon dissipated and began to roll toward the entrance like a wave. The guards and adventurers standing on the fence looked pale, but no one escaped from their seats.
‘The entrance is blocked by Jun. There’s no way it will break through!’
Even after seeing the terrifying waves of the three-eyed gnoll, his firm faith did not waver. I gathered my heart by lifting the prepared stone and spear.
“now!”
the guardsman shouted. However, Hyeon-jun was already running between the obstacles and thrusting his sword into the throat of the three-eyed Nol, who was running in front.
“Kreuk.”
The longsword severed the neck bone and protruded all the way to the back. It was a dangerous situation considering the guys rushing from behind, but Hyeon-jun twisted his wrist slightly and pushed him away with his foot, and the three-eyed knuckles that collided with the corpse rolled on the floor, blocking the entrance at once.
“Kong! Kung!”
“Kreureung!”
Hyeon-jun moved calmly on the narrow road where the shadows fluctuated with a shaky torch, scratching the eyes of the fallen three-eyed gnolls, and stabbing and cutting their necks and armpits in vital places. After killing the first three-eyed gnoll, I killed three more in less than a few seconds, and even those who were alive but incapacitated and rampaging were combined, and not a single one entered more.
“You’re crazy…”
At the muttering of one of the adventurers guarding Hyeon-jun’s back, the others swallowed their saliva and nodded. Hyunjoon I think I can kill them all by myself. But he held on tight. Their mission does not end with simply supporting Hyeon-jun.
“hmm!”
When the three-eyed man pushed the rampage and rushed at him, he swung his sword, and Hyeon-jun blocked it with the top and at the same time thrust the knife into his throat. It’s better if you wield a sword. If all these guys wielded swords like idiots, I think I could kill 100 or 200 people all day long.
But things are not going so optimistically. A three-eyed knoll fell flat on the ground and climbed over the corpse, thrusting its teeth into Hyeon-jun’s leg. Hyeonjun took a step back, twisted his longsword out, turned his body sideways and lowered it. The tip of the knife twirled and cut the guy’s back for a long time, and the guy, frozen in pain, fell behind Hyeon-jun and rolled on the floor. The adventurers waiting in the back hit the fallen man with a long weapon, and in an instant he turned to mush. Hyeon-jun didn’t even look at the guy who fell behind, cut the stomach of the other guy who rushed at him, and threw him back. It is much easier to damage the chest or stomach than the neck, which is usually a fatal vital point. It’s because of the skin drooping around the neck. Hyun-Jun can decapitate with strength and skill, but if he makes even the slightest mistake, he has to take a big step back.
‘This is the start.’
As the guys who blocked the entrance died, the guys behind them rushed in. Now, the effect of blocking the entrance using surprise has fallen. There are corpses, but not too many. It’s not even an obstacle to the three-eyed gnolls who can walk on four legs. Hyeon-jun calmed down and rushed at them in reverse. Until the corpses pile up, you have to continue fighting unfavorably. Unlike adventurers, these guys don’t die with one hit. In addition, it has a strong wild nature, so it will attack even the slightest wound. I don’t know if it’s a situation where I can run away like the guy I fought before, but my back is blocked with other three-eyed gnolls. It will grit its teeth until the moment it dies. You have to keep hitting and falling and shaking them.
Hyeon-jun’s new model swayed like a shadow following the swaying torch inside the narrow obstacle wall. When viewed from above, it appeared as if they were dancing and matching their feet. Following Hyeon-jun’s movement, the three-eyed gnolls retreated back and charged again, and even though they swayed from side to side, a new one took the place after the dead one. It’s like cutting through rushing water.
‘I’ll earn some karma.’
A cold smile appeared on Hyunjoon’s face.
“Throw it! Throw!”
Standing on top of the wooden fence, the captain of the guard screamed. Some of them had already thrown stones before he could even speak, while others were so startled that they came to their senses and threw stones only then. The head of the three-eyed gnoll touched a wooden fence, jumped up, and clung to it. An adventurer threw the net he had woven during the day wide open, and the three-eyed gnoll got tangled in the net that was hanging on the wooden fence, and it fell. And the one that fell under the fence crushed the others and struggled, hindering their movement.
“Don’t stick out! Do you want to fall!”
The captain of the guard, who had grabbed the back of an adventurer who stretched out to push the three-eyed creature out of the window and threw him back, only stuck out his head to check under the wooden fence.
“Oil! Pour the oil!”
“hey! uh! hey! uh!”
The guards waiting above the entrance chanted and tilted a large pot filled with oil. As the oil poured down, the three-eyed knolls that were crowded together were drenched in oil.
“fire!”
One of the waiting guards threw the torch he was holding. It took so much force that it fell a little far, but the three-eyed gnolls, wet with fur, were engulfed in flames in an instant.
“Cheung! Kung!”
The smell of burning meat spread everywhere, and the captain of the guard constantly turned his head to check the situation.
‘The situation is not bad.’
There have been no casualties yet. In addition, everyone’s morale is sky-high, to the point where they need to calm down a little. It is all thanks to Hyeon-jun, who is as if he is blocking the entrance alone.
“Act calmly! Be calm!”
The captain of the guard screamed and ran over the fence to the other side. His throat was already hoarse and he was sweating like rain, but since he was the only person capable of conducting, he had to constantly look around and give instructions.
“right! right! Go right, you assholes!”
There are many people who can’t hear you if you say it once. If you can understand at once in this chaotic situation, you are an elite soldier. Would such people be adventurers or guards?
It was only after the guard commander shouted “right” three times that those waiting under the wooden fence took up the covered wooden barrels and climbed up the wooden fence in a hurry. Then he ran all the way to the right, stopped at the end of the line guarded by people, turned the barrel over and hit it against a wooden fence, vigorously shaking off the contents along with the lid. In the wind, the contents splashed in all directions and even smeared on the face of the person concerned, but they did not pay attention to the heat of the battle. It was like that even though it was dry sh*t.
“Cheung! Knock!”
“Keheng!”
The three-eyed gnolls, who were trying to take a detour to the right, were covered in excrement and rolled on the floor, distraught. Unexpectedly, it was as effective as pouring oil and setting fire. But the amount is not that great. This is because it had to be applied evenly to the wooden fence except around the entrance.
“Sick! Leave the arrows!”
Obviously, I warned him several times to leave his arrows, but the captain of the guard shouted in the ear of the guy who had only three shots left about how long the battle had started.
“die! die! Son of a b*tch!”
“Cheung!”
“Uh uh!”
One of the three-eyed gnolls was impaled by a spear, but still clinging to a wooden fence, an excited adventurer stabbed the spear at random. Then, when the three-eyed game grabbed the spear that pierced the skin and pulled it, the adventurer lost his balance and stumbled.
“Be calm, you assholes!”
The captain of the guard rushed in, grabbed him by the waist, and rolled over the fence. Although the guards are a bit lacking in skills, they are doing well following orders, but the adventurers are not used to receiving orders and acting as planned, so they keep trying to pop out. The captain of the guard stood up and looked around and shouted.
“Did you find it!”
“doesn’t exist!”
“damn!”
It seems that more than 20 people have already been killed at the wooden fence, and Hyun-jun must have killed some at the entrance, so he could have killed 30, but it is still crowded. It’s early in the battle and it holds up well, but after a while, you’ll run out of stones, dung, and arrows. Then, the people guarding the fence must wield their own weapons to push the three-eyed gnolls away. Fatigue would rise in an instant, and there would be casualties. Morale will probably hit rock bottom. It’s ironic, but the top of the wooden fence will fall off before the entrance to fight the three-eyed gnolls head-on.
“Prepare the fire arrows! Fire arrows ready!”
I feel sick to my stomach at having to use the arrows that are already running out like this, but if it’s too late, I won’t even have a chance to use them.
“Designated direction! Aim in the designated direction!”
The guard captain shouted after confirming that the flames were lined up on the wooden fence.
“Fire arrows fired!”
Shh shh!
The flaming arrows that flew all at once gathered at several designated points. These are places that were confirmed through reconnaissance in advance during the day. The captain of the guard opened his eyes and scanned them, but found nothing.
“sh*t···!”
“Three times! three times! three times! three times!”
“Three times!”
“Three times!”
At that moment, the guard who shot the bow screamed with blood clots around his neck. The other guys who heard the sound chanted, and the whole village resounded at once.
