Civilization
19 Chapter 19 - Counter Attack
I back off and run towards the mountain and start to climb. I grab Luke's hand and swing myself onto the ledge. Looking behind me I see the golden wolf fighting against the hobgoblin and the goblin army.
The wolf dodges the hobgoblin's strike and bite's its arm ripping it from its body. At the same time, the wolf is hit by multiple goblin knives and its golden fur is dyed in crimson blood. It leaps backward and howls towards the sky and as if the moon answer's its call a silver ray of light falls down on the wolf. The crimson blood fades away and its golden fur shines even brighter. It growls at the goblins and leaps towards the closest one ripping its head apart before swiping its paw at the next one.
The hobgoblin slowly retreats from the golden wolf while ordering for more goblins to attack the wolf.
"Ignore the goblins! Attack the hobgoblin!"
I hear Luke shout an order towards the golden wolf and in response, it howls and leaps from the ground and towards the wall. Jumping from the side of the wall forward landing behind the goblins and facing the hobgoblin. The wolf leaps forward with its jaws wide open aiming for the hobgoblins head. The hobgoblin dodges to the side and raises its club hitting the wolf on its back. Due to the failed attack, the wolf was now surrounded by the goblins and was eventually overwhelmed but it did its job. Injuring the hobgoblin as well as decimating part of the goblin army.
I let out a sigh of relief glad that the plan worked out but we were still in danger. Looking at the army of goblins only numbering in the twenties and an injured hobgoblin I decided to take a risk.
"Luke let's jump down and try to kill them all."
"WHAT?"
I look at Luke with a very serious expression while I see his dumbfounded and confused face.
"I'm serious. You and I jump down right now. The goblins won't expect a thing and we would be able to quickly kill the closest ones lowering the amount we have to face already."
"Wait, no wait are you sure it would be 2 against like 20 something."
"Trust me, we can do this."
As I say those last words I jump down and quickly ran towards the closest goblin. I stab the side of its neck instantly killing the goblin and grabbed the knife that dropped from its hands. I toss the knife at another goblin and run towards it stabbing its body. To my side, I see Luke finally jumping down and killing goblins. He was swift and mobile running around goblins stabbing their neck or chest not missing a beat. The goblins started to realize that they were being attacked and started to fight back. I make sure to block as many attacks as possible since I was still low HP but running on adrenaline I kept pushing myself to kill goblins.
I was lucky with a lot of the attacks barely dodging some slashes from goblins and barely blocking the club swings. I could hear the yells and shouts of goblins all around me as their blood sprays over my body.
Finally, it was only the hobgoblin left. I look at my status and look at Luke's.

I did not notice before but Luke's stats had changed. He gained more strength, vitality, intelligence and agility. If there was a level system in the game then he would have leveled up. I was curious about why his stats had increased but there were more pressing matters.
The hobgoblin was breathing heavily in front of us, bleeding profusely from its shoulder were the golden wolf had ripped his arm from. I couldn't believe it was still alive but even so both me and Luke were low on HP too.
This time I can't take any risks. I lick my lips and squat a bit while bringing the shield in my hand in front of me. Luke backs up behind me and to the side ready to strike. It was a stalemate, with both parties staring at each other intently.
The hobgoblin grew impatient and screamed at us. It raised his club and charged towards me. No tricks, no feints just a straight charge. I remember the previous battle at the cave where the goblin had attacked last time.
I toss my shield at the hobgoblin blocking its sight with the shield while I jumped and rolled to the left. I toss a spare goblin knife at his face while I slashed at his feet. Being distracted by the shield and having one less arm the hobgoblin was hit by both knives. Luke pounces on the hobgoblin from the other side placing his knife in the neck of the hobgoblin before jumping away. With a look of horror and disbelief, the hobgoblin fell to the ground breathing its last breath.
[ Congratulations for defeating the boss and completing the second event!]
