The green-skinned warlord of Iron Cliff, Gronok Ironclaw, had always been proud of his identity and status. He was very proud that he was the successor of the famous Gobard Ironclaw. Therefore, his every action and appearance tried his best to imitate Gobard Ironclaw. Even though Gronok Ironclaw didn't understand what the real 'Gobard's style' and 'Gobard's strength' were, he could only sum it up with one sentence: 'Awesome!'.
Iron Cliff was the fortress and origin of the Ironclaw tribe. This was where Gobard rose and became powerful. It was also the most powerful fortress in the old world. Although the rise of the Blackrock Fortress made Iron Cliff less WAAAGH, after the Blackrock Fortress was destroyed by Beard's enemy, Iron Cliff became even more WAAAGH.
Waaagh！
Even so, Gronok Ironclaw was very clear that his strength was far from Gobard Ironclaw's. Gobard Ironclaw could destroy an entire army by himself. Conquering other tribes wasn't a problem for Gobard in the past. When the entire Wretched Land united under Gobard's roar, there would be a great war between the green-skinned and the Empire.
Gobard's legend finally came to an end at the gates of Brunswick. Due to the prolonged attack and the wound caused by the Runic Tooth couldn't be healed, Gobard was forced to give up on besieging Brunswick and wanted to retreat. In the end, when he retreated to the Black Mountains, he encountered the Dwarf army that came for revenge. Gobard was finally defeated and this legendary green-skinned warlord disappeared.
Some people said that Gobard was killed by the Dwarves, but this was obviously impossible because if the Dwarves really killed Gobard, they had no reason to flaunt and show off. Some people said that Gobard escaped with his life, but this wasn't very likely because if Gobard could escape with his life, there was no reason for him not to return to Iron Cliff, regroup, and gather a huge WAAAGH again! Fight to the death with the Empire.
This Warboss had been missing for more than 800 years. There was no doubt that it was dead. What happened, perhaps only the dwarves and Gobard knew.
Gebard died, but his tribe didn't. Steel Cliff's Iron Claw Tribe was still standing after hundreds of years. Although it couldn't be compared to when Gebard was alive, the Iron Claw Tribe was still a powerful Green Skin Tribe. This tribe was famous for its powerful Green Skin Battle Boar Cavalry.
Gronoch Iron Claw inherited the fine tradition passed down by Gebard. The Iron Claw Tribe was known for not using siege weapons and large amounts of long-range attacks. This Green Skin Warlord was proud of the Iron Claw Tribe's tradition. This was why when Eight Peaks Mountain's Warlord Skarnik sent a messenger to Gronoch to discuss an alliance against the expeditionary army, Gronoch flatly rejected. The proud Iron Claw Tribe would never bow down to the Goblins, not even cooperation. Gebard said that weak Goblins could only submit or be killed.
At the same time, Gebard's wisdom guided Gronoch. Don't think that Gebard was a brainless brute. This great Green Skin Warlord was extremely proficient in commanding in battle. Gebard was especially good at ambushing Goblins and Green Skin Battle Boar Cavalry's flanking tactics, and this tactic was very well preserved in the tribe.
However, the Giant Spider's ambush tactic didn't work. The enemy was too strong. The Three-Headed Giant Spider and Goblins were all dead, and the Battle Boar Cavalry and Goblin Wolf Riders were too late to charge!
Gronoch Iron Claw didn't have the slightest fear. He immediately mounted his battle boar and raised his battle axe. "WAAAGH!"
“waaaagh！”
“waaaaagh！！！”
The roars of the Green Skin Warlords were like rolling thunder on the battlefield. It was as if the ancient Gebard was calling out to the Green Skin Warlords. The older and younger Green Skin Warlords and Warlords let out a heroic roar. They rode on their battle boars and Warlords and swept towards the enemy!
The battle started again. The Brittany Knights carried an unparalleled momentum. The sound of hooves thundered, and spears were like a forest.
The Green-skinned War Boars and Goblin Warwolves ran wildly. The Goblins brandished their sabers and axes, and the Goblins screamed their names. After paying a huge price, the Green-skinned War Boars and Goblins clashed with the Knights led by Lionheart!
In the clash of steel, a dozen Knights and Green Skin Warlords fell to the ground in the blink of an eye. The Knights from both sides immediately engaged in a chaotic battle on the plains. Spears pierced through skulls, swords pierced through breastplates, and battle swords chopped through limbs. A large group of Green Skin Warlords and Goblins died under the charge of the Brittany Knights.
Laing brandished Nemesis, and the silver flames and light blue light on the blade pointed the direction of the army. He swung his sword and cut down two Green Skin Warlords that were charging towards him. The Knight King's roar was filled with the anger of the Lake Goddess. The Knights and the Green Skin Warlords were old enemies. A thousand years ago, the whole Kingdom was almost destroyed in the flames of war. Now, they had come to seek revenge, fiercer and more brutal than ever!
The King's ferocity also greatly increased the Knights' battle strength. They grasped the opportunity and smashed into the Green Skin Warlords like a heavy hammer. They were like a sharp sword that cut through everything. Following Laing, the Knights reaped the lives of their enemies. After their lances were broken, many of the Knights shouted the names of the Lake Goddess, Knight King, Laing, and Brittany as they pulled out their swords and continued to fight.
Just like that, the Green Skin Warlord and Knight King met in the midst of the chaos. Without a doubt, both sides recognized each other. Laing, who was in a cold rage, immediately swung down Nemesis.
This blow was blocked by Gronok's battle axe. Nemesis may be sharp and was enhanced by psionic powers, but how could Gronok's battle axe be ordinary? This battle axe was filled with a large amount of WAAAGH! Energy. It was said that Gobard had once lifted it. The obsidian battle axe and its body emitted a reddish-black light and a rusty aura. When Nemesis and the battle axe clashed, sparks flew. Laing's powerful strike only left a small cut on the battle axe, but this was enough to make Gronok's heart ache. The Green Skin Warlord let out a terrifying howl, but the clash between the two sides had already ended. Both sides were swept forward by the huge force of the charge.
“waaaagh！” Looking at the peanut-sized cut on the battle axe, Gronok roared in pain. He turned his anger into strength. The Green Skin Warlord cleaved an oncoming Brittany knight into two. The battle axe sliced through his throat and spine. The knight was beheaded on the spot. Then, Gronok raised his fist and punched out violently. A ranger knight's chest was punched in, and his breastplate caved in. He vomited blood and fell off his horse.
"For Gobard, for Gobard!" Gronok finally killed his way through the enemy's ranks. The Green Skin Warlord felt a little uneasy. He could feel that the gray tin can, the Brittany Knight King, seemed to have a powerful strength that exceeded his own. This made him and his army a little uneasy. After all, even if they were a WAAAGH, they would not be WAAAGH in the face of a greater WAAAGH.
Still, Gronok decided to continue his charge. He immediately raised his battle axe and regrouped his army. "Little ones, come to the boss!"
“waaagh！” The Green Skin Cavalry suffered heavy losses. Now, there were less than 500 of them left. The rest of the boys and goblins were planning to gather together.
Obviously, Bellegar and his dwarven army did not intend to give the green-skinned creatures any chance. Eight Peak Mountain King took a rune crossbow from the Oathguard, and hundreds of Oathguard raised the crossbow and pulled the trigger. "Fire!"
"Fire!" General Ivan also gave the same order. Ugor and the others all drew their short bows.
"Fire!" The Old Guard commander Bertrand also gave the same order.
The green-skinned riders were covered by the dense rain of arrows and bullets. Gronok waved his battle axe and anxiously ordered his minions to disperse. Suddenly, the green-skinned warlord felt a chill in his chest. A slight pain stimulated his seemingly non-existent nerves.
There were two small holes in his chest that were smoking. He was shot!
Enduring the pain, the Green Skin Warlord did not stop moving. He immediately ordered the Green Skin Cavalry to charge straight into the human army. If they wanted to win, they had to first defeat this group of shrimps!
"Formation!" The halberd-wielders of the old imperial guards immediately stepped forward and formed a tight formation. The screaming green-skinned cavalrymen directly collided with the shiny and sharp halberd formation. How could the formation formed by the old imperial guards be compared to those ordinary axe-wielding serfs? In the blink of an eye, dozens of battle boars and wolves were pierced through. The Green Skin Cavalry rushed to the first row of Old Guard, but stopped in front of the second and third rows. The Green Skin Cavalry who had lost their momentum were killed one after another. The Old Guard used their blood and steel to defend the human front.
Gronok waved his battle axe wildly. His battle boar knocked an Old Guard to the ground. The Old Guard struggled to stand up, but Gronok did not intend to give him any chance. With a swing of his axe, the Old Guard's head was separated from his body.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! " The pain in Gronok's chest made him crazy. He immediately faced the next Old Guard. The Old Guard was holding an exquisite halberd made by the Dwarves and aiming it at the Green Skin Warlord. But this level of power was not enough to scare Gronok. He retracted his battle axe and slashed at the canned shrimp in front of him again. "Gronok will kill you, for Gebard!"
Old Guard Company Commander Raymond bravely faced the Green Skin Warlord. He howled as he tried to block the Green Skin Warlord's attack with his halberd. The halberd spun and the sharp tip of the halberd flicked the Green Skin Warlord's axe away. Gronok's attack missed its target. The Green Skin Warlord flew into a rage out of humiliation and punched Raymond's head.
This punch was enough to shatter Raymond's head into pieces. Raymond saw this and quickly ducked. Gronok's fist only sent the Old Guard's bearskin cap flying and scraped a small part of Raymond's scalp.
Raymond felt a burning pain in his head, but he knew that it was a hard wound and would not be a problem. However, he had to face the green-skinned warlord again. The old guard swung his halberd in an attempt to counterattack, but the green-skinned warlord kicked the halberd away from the battle boar. Gronok was furious. If it was not for the wound on its chest that reduced its speed and strength, it would have torn apart the human in front of it!
The huge force from the halberd caused Raymond to fall to the ground. The Old Guard did not hesitate and immediately pulled out the musket at his waist. "Die! Monster! "
Boom! The Old Guard standard short musket made by the Dwarves fired.
Another bloody hole appeared in Gronok's chest. The Green Skin Warlord howled in pain, but this could not stop him from killing the canned shrimp!
"Die! Die! " Gronoch's injuries and exhaustion slowed its movements. It struggled to raise its axe. "Shrimps, die!!!"
The howling stopped abruptly. The Goddess of Vengeance had pierced through Gronok's chest from behind. Silver flames burned in Gronok's chest, and a light blue light illuminated the entire battlefield.
Their king, King Ryan, had turned around and led his knights back!
Being attacked from two sides, even the Green Skin Warlords could not hold on. Kalad led the knights back and forth, killing the Green Skin Warboar and the Green Skin Warboar Warboar brothers. The Goblin Wolf Riders had already started to escape. Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Gronok roared. "WAAAAGH!"
In the depths of the subspace, a violent and terrifying energy responded to the green-skinned warlord. It allowed him to persevere. Wielding the battle axe in his hand, Granoch aimed the blade of the battle axe at Grape's face and swung it viciously. The blade of the battle axe drew a yellow-green light in the air.
"Damn it!" Laing saw this and quickly pulled out the Goddess of Vengeance from the Green Skin Warlord's body to block Gronok's violent attacks. The Knight King, who was skilled in swordsmanship, swung his sword and tore a long wound from the Green Skin Warlord's arm to the wrist. Silver flames entangled Gronok's body.
Despite being shot three times, despite bleeding profusely, and despite being pierced through by the Goddess of Vengeance, the Green Skin Warlord did not fall. Taking advantage of this small gap, more than 20 Green Skin Warboar Warboar brothers, who were responsible for protecting Gronok, charged forward and desperately entangled Laing, Kalad, and the others. The Green Skin Warlord screamed and tried to retreat from the battlefield.
"Bastard!" Bertrand, the old commander of the Imperial Guards, pulled his Starfire Composite Longbow to its limit. He aimed at the fleeing green-skinned warlord and pulled the bowstring. "Shoot!"
"Swoosh!" An arrow flashing with the power of Star Fire streaked across the sky and hit Gronok's back. The Green Skin Warlord cried out in pain, but it did not die. It even sped up and ran towards the direction of Iron Cliff.
Veronica had used up a lot of her mana after casting Great Curse, Flaming Storm, and Instantaneous Pyroblast. When she saw the situation, she immediately cast a Fireball spell. The fireball that was more than half a meter in diameter could not catch up with Gronok and his battle boar. It exploded halfway.
After losing their leader and warboss, the rest of the Green Skin Riders were slaughtered. The dwarves and knights who came back to help killed all of them. Within a kilometer, the corpses of the Green Skin Riders were everywhere. There were also a few human corpses. In this encounter, the Brittany knights paid the price of more than 30 casualties. But compared to the Green Skin Riders who lost three Anaknarei Giant Spiders and more than a thousand riders, it was a glorious victory.
"That disgusting Green Skin Bastard is still alive!" Some of the knights cursed. They were sad because of the casualties of their compatriots and brothers, and even more so because of the Green Skin Warlord's escape.
"The current situation is not suitable for a pursuit, knights." Laing jumped off his horse and reached out to pull Raymond up. "Good job, soldier. This is your second time."
"Fighting for the king is the glory of the Old Guard!" Raymond's forehead was dripping with bright red liquid. He wanted to salute, but the pain made him grimace. Another Old Guard quickly took out a bandage to bandage him.
"We are few in number, and this place is very close to Iron Cliff. It is not suitable for a pursuit." Laing said in a deep voice. "Quickly bandage the wounds, clean up the battlefield, and bury the corpses. We are leaving!"
"Yes!"
