Chapter 291 Conflict of Power

"How is that possible!"

Doug's voice almost tore through the air.

His eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief, as he stared intently at the unmoving, transparent wall, as if trying to see right through it.

Sweat slid down his taut cheeks, dripping into the dust and instantly being absorbed without a trace.

All around, the whispers of adventurers surged like a tide, mixed with doubt and fear.

The surviving goblins, however, had cunning and mockery in their eyes, seemingly enjoying Doug's despair immensely.

Some even started to laugh sarcastically, instantly bringing Doug's anger to its peak.

"Aaaaaaah!"

He roared, as if his muscles were ignited by rage.

He kept swinging his longsword.

Each swing of the sword carried destructive power; the sword light was like a tapestry, yet it could only stir up barely perceptible ripples on the transparent barrier.

Ye Yan witnessed all of this from the side, and inexplicably felt a sense of relief.

Just as he was about to unleash the gluttonous power that was enough to devour everything.

A cold, mechanical voice suddenly echoed in his mind:

Your exclusive skill "Oath" conflicts with your exclusive skill "Gluttony".

The next moment, a familiar, sharp pain spread from the depths of my mind.

It felt like a thousand needles piercing his heart, causing him to clutch his head and let out a heart-wrenching scream:

"Ahhhhh!"

Upon seeing this, Victoria turned ashen-faced.

She hugged Ye Yan tightly, her eyes filled with anxiety and heartache.

But reason told her that now was not the time to indulge in emotions.

She took a deep breath, her gaze resolute, and without any hesitation, picked up Ye Yan and strode off into the depths of the forest like an arrow released from a bow.

"Trying to run!"

Upon seeing this, the goblins all screamed.

Realizing Victoria's intentions, they immediately remembered the general's strict orders and, filled with rage, gave chase.

"Crunch! Crunch!"

Their footsteps sounded particularly jarring in the silent forest, carrying with them anger and resentment.

"We can't let them get away!"

The leading goblin knight was even more enraged.

It brandished its halberd and roared loudly, encouraging its companions to quicken their pace.

call!

However, at this critical moment, a dazzling flame suddenly burst out from the forest.

Like an angry dragon emerging from the sea, it instantly drew a blazing line of fire on the ground, forming an indestructible wall of fire.

The flames contained astonishing power, forcefully keeping the pursuing goblins at bay.

They screamed in terror and scattered in all directions, afraid of being swallowed by the horrific flames.

"Do you know what you're doing, Shaman?"

"By doing this, you are openly challenging the General's authority!"

On the other side of the wall of fire, Victoria held Ye Yan tightly in her arms.

Their figures swayed on the edge of heat and cold, like the only calm harbor in the storm.

He sensed the intense heat behind him and heard the goblin's insults.

Victoria turned around and stared blankly at the goblin shaman Sha standing in front of hundreds of goblins.

She didn't understand why the goblin in front of her was helping her.

"I didn't do this for you."

As if she could hear Victoria's voice, the goblin shaman Sha, who had her back to her, spoke:

"If you hear that, run!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the goblin shaman Sha stomped his staff heavily on the ground!

Click!

The powerful force caused the ground to crack.

Accompanying this was the old, hoarse voice of the goblin shaman, filled with anger and sorrow.

"You little bastards, have you forgotten our true enemy?!"

"A formidable enemy has invaded our homeland, yet you are slaughtering your own people!"

"Shaman!"

Upon hearing this, the Goblin Knight Captain's face darkened, and the veins on his hand gripping the sword hilt bulged.

He stepped forward and confronted Shaman Sha.

"This is the General's order!"

His tone was full of threat, as if he were about to draw his sword at any moment.

"Are you going to disobey the General's orders?"

"Regardless of whether it was the General's intention or not!"

The goblin shaman Sha raised his eyes, his gaze resolute.

"All I know is that what we need to do now is protect our home and drive out those invading humans!!!"

"Defend our homeland, not hunt down our fellow citizens."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

His voice echoed across the battlefield, shaking the hearts of every goblin like thunder.

The goblin knights who had been charging wildly gradually stopped, lowered their heads, and their fierce expressions were replaced by shame.

"The swords in your hands are not meant for killing each other!"

Shaman Shah continued, his voice becoming softer and deeper.

"It is to protect your fellow countrymen, to defend our homeland."

"Do you remember the oath you swore on the day you became knights?"

"That's not just a ceremony, it's a lifelong commitment!"

"Have you all forgotten the knightly declaration from that day?"

Shaman Shah's words struck the hearts of every goblin like a heavy hammer.

This made them recall those passionate years and why they embarked on this path.

"Hahahahaha!"

At that moment, Doug suddenly burst into laughter.

Laughter echoed across the empty battlefield, a complex mix of anger and disdain.

"Knight? Home?"

"You ugly, lowly goblin monsters, when did you become worthy of speaking such words?"

boom!

A powerful surge of magic erupted from Doug's body, the tip of his sword flashing with dazzling light, as if it could tear through all darkness.

"You goblins who only know how to plunder deserve to live your whole lives in dark, damp lairs, waiting to be hunted down by us righteous adventurers!"

The next moment, he swung his sword down, the sword shadow like a dragon, heading straight for the Goblin Knight Captain.

"What are you talking about?!"

The goblin knight captains turned around angrily and drew their silver longswords.

boom!

The human and the goblin unleashed a terrifying power.

In an instant, the goblins and adventurers engaged in a fierce battle.

On the battlefield, the sounds of clashing swords and the dazzling light of magical explosions intertwined, creating a cruel yet magnificent scene.

Never die.

Victoria, carrying Ye Yan, had already walked deeper into the forest.

Neither goblins nor adventurers can be trusted.

The goblin shaman's words flashed through Victoria's mind.

Ye Yan lay in Victoria's arms, her face pale, struggling to keep her eyes open despite the pain.

Staring at the figure standing between the goblins and the adventurers—Goblin Shaman Sha

Why do this?

Ye Yan didn't understand.

The wind howled through the forest, carrying away the noise and bloodshed of the battlefield.

Victoria and Ye Yan's figures gradually disappeared into the dense forest.

Meanwhile, a dark figure quietly followed.
