This Giant Dragon is So Powerful!-Chapter 29 - 28: Tribal Assault Battle

"Very well, withdraw now."

Shiji nodded to the few kobold scouts, then walked from the back of the troop to the very front.

He silently advanced along the path the scouts had mapped out, his footsteps almost soundless.

As his body grew stronger and from constant battles with demons and beasts, Shiji’s control over his power became more refined.

Soon, Shiji saw a spot not far ahead where the dense fog had completely dissipated.

A wooden watchtower several meters tall stood there.

Beneath the watchtower, two goblin warriors, wielding iron sabers and dressed in tattered beast hide armor, sat on the ground eating a green snake.

Pulling off the snake’s head, they skillfully removed the venom glands, each goblin warrior ate half, consuming the unconsciously writhing snake body as if it were spicy strips.

The scene was barbaric and bloody.

Unnoticed, Shiji quietly approached the two goblin warriors from behind. By the time they sensed danger, there was a crack.

Their necks were forcibly crushed by Shiji’s hand, covered in fine black scales.

At two meters tall, Shiji was Level 4, crushing a Level 0 goblin less than a meter tall, the same height as a kobold, was only slightly harder than stepping on an insect, and no harder to catch than a wild rabbit in the Dark Forest.

After taking care of this lookout point, Shiji moved on to another point several hundred meters away to deal with the two goblin warriors guarding the other watchtower.

Minutes later, accompanied by a sharp whistle made from wood, 196 fully armed kobold warriors charged out of the fog with excited and cruel eyes, bypassing the watchtower and rushing toward the fenced goblin camp.

The sudden attack threw the previously quiet goblin camp into chaos, as a large number of goblin warriors hurriedly picked up their weapons, while the old, weak, women, and children among them gathered toward the center of the tribe.

Shiji casually swung the demon beast bone staff in his hand, sending two rushing goblin warriors flying, but his eyes showed no excitement.

Even though these goblins had iron weapons, which was manageable because the kobolds’ vine armor could defend against these generally standard iron weapons, Shiji found something disconcerting.

These goblins were a bit too organized. Although they appeared somewhat panicked, they were still orderly.

In just a short time, nearly a hundred goblin warriors gathered and rushed at them, preventing the kobold warriors from launching long-range javelin suppression.

Roar!

Mondo, Zaku, and Zameng, three giant demons resembling small giants, charged at the forefront, wielding four-meter-long hardwood sticks that crushed the goblins like bugs, breaking bones and spraying blood, sending them flying like broken dolls.

Mondo casually kicked a goblin warrior away, the terrifying force causing its eyes to bulge and blood to flow, slamming severely into two other goblin warriors approaching from behind.

The three goblin warriors tumbled together and eventually twitched and went still.

It was beyond fierce!

In pure brute force, even Shiji, who had been developing Dragon Vein Power for nearly a year, could not compare to Mondo.

This was the natural disparity in body constitution. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

If, over time, Mondo also developed the latent Dragon Vein Power, the gap would become even larger.

In just a few short minutes, at least dozens of goblin warriors had died under the sudden assault.

But the continuous stream of goblin warriors rushing from the rear, along with the appearance of five goblins larger than the average, gave the goblin tribe a chance to catch their breath.

"Damn kobolds, die for me!"

A big goblin, standing 2.5 meters tall and rather stout, fiercely smashed down the giant wolf fang iron rod in its hand.

Feeling the massive pressure from above, the kobold warrior being attacked was filled with terror.

With a thud, carrying a sound of bones shattering, the kobold warrior’s body was smashed into a bizarrely twisted shape by the big goblin’s wolf fang club, dying on the spot without even managing a complete scream.

Shiji recognized the identity of these large goblins.

Big goblins.

Although goblins are weak, in a goblin tribe of a certain scale, there is a chance of appearing with a bloodline throwback, growing to a height surpassing even human barbarians, with greater strength than barbarians: the big goblin.

However, besides brute strength, big goblins don’t have spell-like abilities.

And when it comes to a contest of brute force... how can big goblins compare to near four-meter-tall giant demons?

Without orders from Shiji and Mondo, Zaku and Zameng excitedly charged at the five big goblin warriors, bulldozing through the smaller goblin warriors blocking their path like a war chariot.

Those five big goblin warriors, donned in iron armor and wielding wolf fang clubs, narrowed their eyes upon seeing the two giant demons charging at them, but they did not fear, and instead roared and rushed forward.

In the initial clash, two big goblin warriors were sent flying by the massive hardwood sticks, green blood scattering in the air.

But the counterforce brought Zaku and Zameng’s charge to a halt, and they were struck several times around the waist by the three big goblin warriors wielding wolf fang clubs, making them stagger and cry out in pain, clearly not taking well even with vine armor for protection.

Yet the fierce nature of Zaku and Zameng was fully triggered, as they immediately discarded the hardwood sticks unsuited for close quarters combat, reaching out with massive hands to grab those only chest-height small creatures, intending to crush them alive.

One big goblin warrior barely dodged the giant hand’s attack, but another was not as fortunate and was caught by Zaku.

"Little runt, Zaku will smash you to pieces!" Zaku growled out lowly, disregarding the third big goblin warrior behind him swinging the wolf fang club at his leg. With strength capable of lifting an elephant, he hoisted the big goblin warrior he caught and smashed it to the ground.

Zaku, standing at 3.8 meters, lifted the big goblin warrior over 4.5 meters off the ground. From such a height, combined with Zaku’s rampaging force and acceleration, the big goblin warrior, clad in iron armor weighing dozens of pounds, opened its eyes wide, its eyes bloodshot, vomiting blood profusely. Although its strong demon constitution prevented immediate death, it effectively lost all combat capability.

Just as Zaku and Zameng were about to knock down the other two big goblin warriors, two black rays flew in from afar, embedding themselves in Zaku and Zameng.

In an instant, Zaku and Zameng felt incredibly weak, struggling to muster even a third of their usual strength.

The two big goblin warriors beside Zaku and Zameng, along with the two initially knocked away and now regaining their footing big goblin warriors, suddenly grew excited, shouting,

"Haha, the High Priest is here, you giant demons and kobolds are going to die here today!"

The numerous goblin warriors, locked in a standoff with the kobold warriors, fought back feverishly like they were invigorated.

In mere moments, at least seven or eight kobold warriors were unexpectedly hacked to death by goblin warriors, limbs severed, heads rolling on the ground.

Though the kobold warriors’ sturdy vine armor could defend against the iron saber’s slashes, their wooden spears were not durable enough for repeated clashes with iron weapons.

Many kobold warriors found their weapons inferior in quality to those of the goblin warriors, leading to broken wooden spears, and were caught off guard, getting their arms slashed by iron sabers, followed by being hacked to death amidst their screams.
