Captain Jack of Azeroth

Chapter 109 Technology Wins
The guardian warriors were screaming in agony from the explosion, they were terrified. The tradition of the trial of the treasure guardians has been around for thousands and tens of thousands of years, they have always been proud of fighting head-on, and this kind of experience of being bombarded without being able to see the enemy has never happened to them.

Faced with the unknown, even these warriors with strong hearts were at a loss.

The Kvaldir opened their mouths wide. It was not like they had never seen artillery attacks before, but this was the first time they had seen such powerful artillery. If they were not ghosts, they would also be afraid of these artillery attacks.

After three rounds of bombardment, Jack immediately waved his hand, "Attack!"

Gejier immediately ordered the slaves to rush into the trial field. The bombardment just now killed at least half of the guardian warriors, and the remaining guardian warriors were basically all injured. With such a huge advantage, he believed that the slaves could definitely resolve the battle quickly.

However, things did not go as he thought.

Although the guardian warriors suffered heavy casualties, their own strength was indeed much greater than that of the slaves.

More than a dozen antlered minotaurs gathered together and launched a counterattack against the slaves. As they ran, the ground trembled, and in an instant they rushed into the slaves.

The slaves were simply unable to withstand their charge. Wherever these antlered minotaurs passed, the slaves and their horses fell to the ground, and they fought their way out of a bloody path.

Just as Jiang Du said, the Viku warriors were brave and fierce, and the more seriously injured they were, the higher their fighting power was. They were divided into several teams, and attacked the slaves while protecting each other. Some were responsible for resisting the javelins, and some were responsible for protecting their lower bodies. The rich combat experience made the slaves' dirty tricks no longer work.

As a result, the situation on the battlefield was completely reversed, the favorable situation turned into an unfavorable one, and the slaves retreated again and again.

Gejier was a little annoyed. The performance of these slaves made him lose face. However, he felt more distressed because this was all money!

Seeing the crew of the Black Pearl still watching the fun, he became a little unhappy, "Jack, quickly send your people to support, otherwise those slaves may not be able to hold out for too long. Once the slaves flee, we will lose this war."

Jack looked at Gjir, "Man, are you kidding me? The fighting power of these slaves is too weak, not at all like what you said."

Gjeer hurriedly explained: "I'm not lying to you. Our enemies are too powerful. Those Vikus are simply the reincarnation of the god of war. They are so tall, how can the slaves be their opponents?"

"And those weird minotaurs, these guys are simply not human, and they are even scarier than centaurs when they charge."

Jiang Du: "Those are Highmountain Tauren. They come from Highmountain in the west. These Tauren have been blessed by the demigod Cenarius, so they have antlers."

Gajir quickly replied, "Jack, you heard it! They are demigods, my God! No wonder they are so powerful."

Jack looked across the river, which side are you from?
Jiang Du laughed awkwardly, "Jack, I didn't mean it. Although this goblin is a bit annoying, what he said is true. If we don't find a solution, those slaves will really be defeated."

Jack said calmly, "They still have a trick up their sleeve. Why are you so anxious?"

Jack turned to Gjir and said, "You brought a lot of sawmills and bombs with you, why don't you use them?"

Gjir immediately jumped up and said, "Jack, do you know how much they are worth?"

Jack reminded him, "It was my money, Gjir."

Gejier immediately lowered his head and muttered, "You haven't paid me yet!"

"You want to tear up the contract?" Jack said with a smile.

"No! I didn't! It's impossible!" Gejier denied it hastily and immediately turned to look at the engineers, "Send the lumberjacks out quickly, our employer is unhappy, don't mess with the gold coins, idiots!"

Jiang Du asked in confusion: "A logging machine? What is that?"

Jack pointed to a place not far away. The goblins had pulled more than ten vehicles when they arrived. He lifted the canvas on the vehicles to reveal several huge machines. These machines were like robots, with two hands, one for a chainsaw and the other for a gripper.

The goblins pulled up the machine, and then several engineers jumped on it and started the machine. A rumbling noise was heard, which made Jiang Du open his mouth wide, "They can actually move?"

Jack glanced at him. What's so strange? Don't look like a country bumpkin. He was a little confused. The Kvaldir had existed for at least tens of thousands of years. They should know about Ulduar. The war machines there were much more technologically advanced than the logging machines.

Jiang Du came over curiously and watched the goblin engineers test the operation of the logging machines. One of the logging machines seemed to be stuck, and the goblin engineer shouted, "Come and check it quickly, its mechanical arm is stuck."

Several goblins immediately rushed over and quickly looked for the cause.

Rude couldn't help but say, "Are these guys reliable? Don't let them down on the battlefield..."

Before he could finish his words, he was covered in the mouth with a heavy punch!

"Shut up! If you say another word, I'll tear your head off."

Rude quickly slapped his arm, and after breaking free, he complained, "I just said that, do you want to smother me to death?"

Jack was speechless, "Shut up your crow mouth!"

The lumberjack is a masterpiece of goblin technology, which can be used for both logging and fighting. Its appearance has greatly enhanced the goblin's combat capability and ensured their safety.

Without lumberjacks, the goblins can only carry bombs and act as suicide squads, and their death rate remains high.

Soon, the goblins drove their logging machines into the battlefield, and when the slaves saw this, they all made way for them.

Timbersaw rushed in front of the Highmountain Tauren, blocking their charge. The grippers grabbed their weapons and then the chainsaws cut through their bodies.

The Gaoling Tauren had never fought against the Timbersaw before, and they suffered a great loss in the first battle. Several of them were killed by the Timbersaw, and the other Gaoling Tauren immediately retreated, trying to get out of the battle.

But the slaves didn't give them any chance and attacked from the side, entangling them. The woodcutters immediately followed and killed all the Gaoling minotaurs.

Jiang Du looked at the battlefield in amazement, "These machines are quite powerful."

Jack: "It's OK against the Tauren, but not so good against the Vrykul."

Timbersaws are limited in height, about the same height as Highmountain Tauren, which can provide a surprising effect, but Vrykul are taller and more sturdy, and chainsaws may not be able to penetrate their defenses.

As expected, just as Jack thought, the chainsaw was not powerful enough and got stuck immediately when it touched the Vikus' body.

"What should we do now?"

Jiang Du asked: "How about we go and help?"

Jack waved his hand, "No, the goblins haven't exhausted their tricks yet."

As they were talking, a dozen goblins were seen running towards the battlefield with bombs on their backs. They took advantage of the chaos to rush to the feet of the Vikus and then detonated the bombs.

"Boom boom boom——"

Jiang Du looked at the goblins' suicide attacks in astonishment, "Don't they want to live anymore?"

Jack shrugged, "For goblins, gold is more important than life."

Jiang Du was speechless. What good would it be if he had all the gold coins if he had no life anymore?
Jack couldn't understand what these goblins were thinking. They were obviously timid and cowardly, but they would make money at the cost of their lives.

It's very contradictory!
