Chapter 163 Goblin Attack
"How could this be?"
The darkness was thicker than normal darkness, swallowing the light from the ark. The howling wind the tunnel had turn completely oppressive, forcing those in the ark to hold their breath.
Justin perception caught a sight of a being that stunned him for a couple of seconds. He took a deep breath and said.
"Slow down and tell me if you find anything" Justin said and left the control center.
This was a battle that was unavoidable since the enemy had surrounded on both side. All they need to do was welcome their enemy with open hands.
When the ark slow down it speed, everyone was already prepared for their incoming battle. The dreadfuls silence filled the ark and tunnel leaving only the howl of the wind.
Bang!
The ark shook back and forth under the heavy attack coming from the back of the ark. In the commoner cars, a deep dent appeared on the wall, displaying a claw attack.
The ordinary humans stared at the dent with their heart racing. Fear grips their heart squeezing it slowly, playing with life.
A light creak came from the top of the ark before it began to get louder, thumping in the heart of the people.
Bang!
Another bang came from the top of the ark and a sharp long claw cut through the metal. The claw was dark brown, reeking of blood.
Sweats dripped from the heads of those inside the train as they watch the scene in front of them. Their eyes darted to the defense teams guarding the car, hoping they would take action. Unfortunately, the men held their cold weapon tightly without having any intention of attacking.
'Did these stupid men want this beast to cut the roof and kill us before they realized how dire the situation is' the people curse in their heart.
Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, the ark was attack on both sides and a powerful attack cut through the car and being jumped into the ark.
Ah!
Seeing this the ordinary people felt their life jumped out their body. A ten feet beast with long ear, pointy nose and sharp mouth, long hand with black club . A goblin.

A mischievous smile appeared on the gobbling face as it looked at the ordinary humans. It show it sharp teeth as it prepared to pounced on the human.
Just then, the passive defense team spring to action and rushed toward the gobbling. Seeing this, the Grey gobbling widen its eyes and rushed toward the defense team swing it club.
Bang!
A swing attack from the Grey gobbling sent three people flying and blood spray out of their mouth. Noticing this, fear gripped the heart of the people as they dare believe what would happen if the defense team were defeated.
Creak!
Thud!
Another Grey gobbling appeared in side the car and looked at the ordinary people for a moment before it pounce on them.
Help!
They cried seeing the heavy club descending on their head. A middle-aged woman covered his little kid and wait of tier death since the defense team were busy fighting the first Grey gobbling.
Just then, a sharp wind slice through the air obstructing the heavy club. The gobbling took a couple of step and looked at the direction of the attack. A kid not older than 9 matched toward it with a sword.
Noticing the overflowing souls power from the kid. The Grey gobbling blinked it eyes and ignored the ordinary human. It made a weird nose and rush toward the kid.
This kid wasn't anybody but Lola.
Lola watch as the Grey gobbling pounce on her with the club coming for her head.
"Die beast!" She cried with her innocent eyes. Immediately, the heavenly marking on her head lit up, forcing the suppression on her ability to be suspended.
Everything happened in a blink and Lola didn't know. Her sword collided with the club, making deafening sound.
Bang!
The gobbling was sent flying while Lola took a couple of step backward. Seeing this, the glow in her burnt brightly. Since she had her first kill, the fear of the beast had become minuscule. Furthermore, she had follow the defense team to train and slaughter some ordinary beast, boosting her confidence.
Thus, she didn't wait for the Grey Gobbling to attack her before she rushed toward the gobbling. Her speed was exceptionally fast as the wind carry her.
Bang! Bang!
She struck her sword twice, forcing the gobbling club from it hand. The gobbling was stunned for a moment before it try to strike with a claw attack. However, Lola didn't give the Grey gobbling the chance before she drill her sword deep into the gobbling heart.
Ah!
The gobbling cried in agony and tried to retreat but the next strike send it head flying.
Thud!
The Grey gobbling head rolled in the air thrice before crashed on the ground. It green blood splashed to the faces of the ordinary people.
Watching the head of the gobbling, no one dare to breath and watch as the green liquid dripped down their faces.
"Stay in your place and don't move. We will take care of this beast." Kira tiny voice woke the people from their stupor. Thus, they nodded absentmindedly.
At the other side, the group of defense had manage to take down the Grey with two of them sustaining a grievous injury, laying down with their ribs broken.
"Finally!" one of the defense team said as he slump to the ground, gasping for air. Furthermore his eyes was fixed on Lola.
'How could she be so strong?' He exclaimed in his heart.
"You are strong!" A lady among the defense team said while wiping the blood from her face.
"Thank you!" Lola flashed a innocent smile and averted her face from the numerous gaze directed at her.
Bang!
Their happiness was short lived as three Grey gobbling jumped into the ark from the opening. What!
The heart of the people raced while those from the defense team rush to their feet, attacking the gobbling with their spear.
Boom!
A deafening sound echoed from the outside shaking the tunnel vehemently and debris fell.
A young woman undressed in purple with streak of lightning surrounding her. Her whip danced back and forth amid hundreds of gobbling. This was Susan.
The gobbling looked at Susan with an evil smile and communicated with weird language and pounced on her on both sides.
"Lightning world" Susan whispered and a dome of lightning came out of her whip flashed among the gobbling.
Ah!
The gobbling cried in pain as tens of them were charred to crisp. The air reek of metallic smell and land covered in green liquid.
Bang!
On top of the ark, a golden arrow harvested the life of its target like it was nothing. Merab fired its arrow constantly without stopping. Just then, at the corner of her eyes it saw a car crowded by gobbling and furious.
A Grey Gobbling jumped from darkness and landed a couple of feet from Merab and swung its huge club.
"Get out!" She shouted and slid, avoiding the club as an arrow appeared on its bow.
Hmm!
The Gobbling was stunned for a moment and downward only to see Merab ready to let loose of her arrow.
"%$#%%^#@" The gobbling said.
Whoosh!
The arrow appeared in front of the goblin, piercing its brain. Splash! The powerful force from the arrow blew the head into smithereens and the brain juice fell on his face.
"What the... shit is this" Merab cried as she quickly wiped the brain juice from her face.
Ah!
A cry came from the car crowded with the gobbling, forcing Merab to forget about the liquid on her face and draw her bowstring.
A humming sound came from her bowstring and a thick sharp arrow appeared on the bowstring.
"Rapid Fire" She shouted.
She let loose of the arrow and air trembled slightly and the arrow disappeared into thin air. When it appeared again, it had split into five and entered the crowded car. What followed was the grievous scream of the gobbling.
At once, the gobbling halted on their track and retreated with fear written on their faces. They made an indistinct sound and looked at the arrow's direction.
"I've been expecting you" She smirked and released three rapid fires one after the others.
The gobbling only felt the air around them vibrate slightly before a golden arrow lodge deep into their chest.
Meanwhile, at the other part of the ark, Kira was on her mount. The black tiger beast. With every wave of her long spear, goblins were falling like flies.
Nevertheless, the gobbling seems not to end as the sprout from the darkness.
"We need help in the 10th elite section." A voice echoed from Kira radio.
"I'm on my way?"
As she was rushing toward the 10th car, a gobbling jumped in front of her from the darkness, shaking the ground.
"What the hell?" She shouted in daze.
