Chapter 55 The Blood Curse
" hey Agnes tell me what you know about goblins?" Alec asked Agnes as he saw the seven Tier 6 goblins flying to the three tier 6 human mages which also includes Draco
" for starters goblin are one of the weakest race in the second dimension and were often bullied and they did not even have the power to be in control of a space gate in order to invade our world"
" so they stared working as subordinates for other races in the blood moon wars, and even if they were given little from the benefits, that they gained from the blood Moon wars they didn\'t mind as they used the resource to grow as they had high birth rate"
" and as those who went to fight as subordinates increased in power and brought back more resources which help in boosting there birth rate another level , till they decided to trade for a low tier gates when there number became really much and sent all there warriors who hand gone to war and the babies too who had passed 5 weeks "
" that was one frightening thing about them they grow fast as long there was little energy, not that there power passed the Tier 1 range but with thousands of Tier 1 goblins new at the beck and call of the goblins who had managed to reach the Tier 3 and Tier 2 realm after multiple subordinate missions they were able to crush multiple small cities "
" which they attacked after trading for a low Tier space gate, they became invincible like that with the low tier gate bringing back more resources for there race to multiply and before any one knew they have started having mid tier goblins, that\'s the story of the goblins"
" as of right now there strongest warrior is said to be a Tier 9 goblin King hoping to break through the monarch realm and become an emperior of the goblin race as only then would the other race of the second dimension recognise them as a true powerhouse, but there large number makes them one of humans most feared enemies as they are now in control of multiple gates and are still able to send forces to attack different places every Blood Moon, this just shows how much warriors they have. " Agnes explains
After Alec heard all that he was shocked at how the goblins race have developed so fast, it seems killing the humans was a faster way for them to advance fast which made him feel like those creatures from the second dimension were using cheat systems, and there was no way he was going to let that happen
The Tier 6 of the goblin race had different colour from the others they were more like a dark green in colour in contrast to the light green low tier goblins , the one in the lead even had a dark blue color, Alec could feel the pressure even if he was so far away, Agnes saw him staring at the goblin
"that an hobgoblin it\'s an evolve version of the goblin race" Agnes said
" ohhh, no wonder he was much taller, but he still looks like an teenager though with that small heights" Alec joked about his height
" Well you should be careful with that because he is definitely an old goblin as no goblin has ever been able to evolve to become an hob-goblin so fast without being over an hundred years old or more" Agnes corrected him
" Woah that kinda creepy, a old goblin acting like a young genius " Alec replied
" what do you know, for there race being able to evolve alone makes him one of the most special ones which means if we should classify him then he is among the genius of the goblin race " Agnes said as she shakes her head at this guy lack of knowledge.
He was leading squads to a war and he didn\'t even have basic knowledge of the races that live in the second dimension, which was quite bad, she hoped the strength he is so proud of can help him out when it really matters the most
*****
" what do yo want?" the Tier 6 mage from the city guard questioned the hob goblin that was leading the goblins the moment he got close to them
" ohhh its actually a very simple case, as you can see we have more numbers than you and if a fight is to occur it would just serve to affect the both of us as I am not sure I can take care of all of you without losing a Mid tier battle force which I can\'t really afford "
" and that\'s why our elders came up with something that might interest you " the hob goblin who was leading the goblins said, his language and accent seeming really off and out of place as it was clear that he just learnt it
Which also came as a suprise to the city gard, as this just seems to show how intelligent the hob-goblin was and if he had a chance he would want to stay away from an enemy like this as he prefer fighting brutes more than a genius who always uses there brains and didn\'t act cocky
Yea there was no weak hob-goblins they were called the most talented of the goblins race for a reason, so fighting against one so cunning won\'t really be there est option
" so what do you have in mind?" Draco asked as he was already irritated with the hob-goblin attitude already
" ohh, patience, we would all swear a blood oath that no matter what happen that this would only be a fight among the Low tiers ( Tier 1- Tier 3) , as we are still in a war against the zombies race who once had this space gate near your city " the hob goblin finally confessed hs reason for not wanting to fight with the mid tier goblins
After all they were the main battle force of each race
" I didn\'t know you guys always fought against each other " Draco said in disdain
"we wold not want any loses to any of our top fighters, the only reason why we are even attacking is because the young goblins have to fight in battles in order to become strong" the hob-goblin said
"wait?, let me get something right, you are using our race as a wheel stone to sharpen the fangs of your races twits, what do you take us for, do we look like weaklings to you?" Draco shouted not holding back almost exploding in rage
He really just wanted to walk up to him and blow his face but whenever he remember they were outnumbered by 2 to 1 he quickly reset what anger he had left as he tried to calm himself down as even if he knew he could handle two
The same could not be said for the rest of the Tier 6 mages present , and if they lost any one, he would be seen as a public enemy, who was the case of many deaths, he was already giving the Gordons family alot of pressure and he was not ready to add this to the list of his offense
" to be sincere with you we don\'t really care what you think about us" the Tier 6 goblins shrugged there shoulders
Draco gritted his teeth in anger, " I never knew that races in the second dimension also fought against themselves also too, well I guess its our Goodluck that you are still tied in a war so you could not send your full force"
" because from what have heard I always heard you guys always try to outnmber your opponents with multiple numbers and that\'s what you are Trying to do in the low tier battle too but don\'t worry we accept" the Tier 6 city guard accepted the hob-goblin offers
" I can assure you that you have made the right choice" the hob goblin laughed smugly
" why?, if we take that oath we won\'t be able to save or young generation, this is a battle to the death, I didn\'t signed up for this" the lanzt patriach started complaining the moment he heard that they were about to accept the blood swear
The moment they accept this type of swear that means that the mid tier mages and mid tier goblins are not allowed to fight at all, and the result of the war would rest on the shoulders of the low Tier mages and creatures
Definetly the goblin have alot of confidence in able to over power the humans with there numbers but the lanzt patriarch does not know what was making the city guardians act with so much confidence but his family was a small one
And those he brought here was the future of his clan and if was to lose or the prodigies of his clan died for a stupid war like this he might really blame himself to death n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
After all the only reason he allowed them come in the first place is because he wanted them to tag along the Gordons family who he felt were much stronger, so they would be saved as long as they retreated fast when they were in danger or stick with the Gordons family
He made sure to drill that idea into the heads of his clan
" don\'t worry, I know they won\'t be able to win, because of the city guards has a genius in both the Tier 1,2, and 3 area we might not have the advantage due to there numbers but I can assure you that we have a chance of winning without wasting the blood of a Mid Tier mage today " the lanzt patriach heard a voice in his head and realised that it was the city guardian that sent him a telepathy message
He finally sigh in relief, he didn\'t care about the other battlefied as he was more concern about the Tier 1 battlefied, but now he heard the city guard has expert in each battle field made him happy
Since Alec could also be seen as a prodigy, so he felt with alec and the guy from the military they should be able to win the Tier 1 Region, he didn\'t care if the rest lost, as long as his family member made it out with less casualties
This were the thoughts that were on running in his head until the hob goblin shouted for the war to begin
And his face changed when he saw the amount of goblins making their way to the Tier 1 battle field, he could feel his scalp tingling even with the hiar he had on his head he could not stop the feelings of fear
" that\'s practically crazy they have about fifteen thousand Tier1 and below creatures" the lanzt patriach said with his eyes bulgingg out in shock.
But as he looked at the Tier 6 city guardian he noticed that he was already taking the blood swear not to participate and the feeling of cold invaded his body in full force
