Chapter 1157: The Battle of G.o.ds" Fall (Part One)
[TL Note: Here comes another three-parter.]
The goblin military that showed up this time was far more trained and organized than all the other goblin troops that this human expeditionary troop had encountered so far. Their formations were proper, and they all wore full armor. They held different weapons such as maces and sabers, and they had different duties. In fact, even a cavalry team appeared with goblins riding on strange mounts that looked like boars.
In the sky, the dense goblin zeppelins looked like an endless group of locusts that covered the sky, making people feel fearful.
These zeppelins looked simple, and some even exposed tree branches; dried leaves could be seen on them. It was clear that they were made from recently chopped trees. Goblin archers stood on the zeppelins, and the bigger zeppelins had magic cannons on them.
These zeppelins couldn"t pose threats to the expeditionary troop if there were only a few of them. However, when so many zeppelins flooded the sky, they brought a suffocating pressure to the region.
Standing on a high point and looking into the distance, one could see countless goblin soldiers rushing over the horizon. It seemed like the expeditionary troop was a small island that was surrounded by a surging green ocean.
Compared to chaotic and messy goblin troops that this expeditionary troop ran into before, these goblin soldiers were disciplined and didn"t charge up aimlessly.
"There are supreme masters in the enemies. There are quite a few of them!"
The masters of the expeditionary troop instantly sensed that something was wrong.
This time, many goblin masters appeared in the military, and there might be G.o.dly existences as well.
It seemed like this was a well-planned ambush battle, trapping the expeditionary troop on this flatland where they couldn"t use any terrain advantages.
"Humph! They are only a bunch of beasts! How can they learn strategies and formations from humans? Your Highness, I"m willing to lead the troop of Manchester City to teach these goblins a lesson!"
Commander Kompany of the Manchester City Empire volunteered to go first.
Kompany was a powerful supreme master, and the 50,000 soldiers of Manchester City who he brought to the Southern Region were elites. Therefore, he was quite confident.
Valkyrie Elena nodded and gave permission to Kompany.
For a long time, the impression Elena gave others was that she was a powerful warrior, and she never demonstrated any abilities in commanding soldiers. In reality, Elena was quite talented in this field as well.
After all, Elena was the best female rogue in [Rogue Encampment], and she was a leader just next to Military Leader Kashya. She led the rogues to battle the monsters from h.e.l.l, and big demons such as Andariel weren"t able to step into [Rogue Encampment] for more than ten years. It wasn"t just because Elena was a powerful warrior; she was also an excellent commander.
However, ever since Elena became intimate with Fei, the king was too powerful and outshined Elena. Therefore, this queen only gave people the impression that she was a warrior.
The person who knew Elena the most was Fei.
Therefore, Fei went against all objections this time and named this wife of his as the head commander to lead the troop of the empire to the Southern Region. He wanted to create an environment where the Valkyrie could showcase her talent.
Now, the goblins were coming at the expeditionary troop with aggression, and it was hard to tell what strength they had. Since Kompany was willing to take the first fight, Elena could use this opportunity to observe the strength of these goblins.
"Generals, supervise and monitor the battle with me!"
Elena and all other commanders in the expeditionary troop walked to the front of the campsite to watch the battle.
Kompany sent out 20,000 elite cavalrymen, and they dashed into the goblin formation right in front of them like a bolt of lightning.
These 20,000 soldiers were in high spirits, and they were unstoppable.

Chapter 1157: The Battle of G.o.ds" Fall (Part Two)
After seeing those tragic scenes from yesterday, every human soldier hated the goblins. Kompany led the charge, and the cavalry legion pierced into the goblins like a hot knife cutting into soft cheese. They instantly tore an opening in the front formation of the goblins, crushing the enemies and sending many streaks of green blood into the air.
"Kill! Kill every single goblin!" Kompany shouted. His voice was as resonant as a surging tide, and hundreds of goblin zeppelins fell from the sky.
The power of a supreme master was shocking. Kompany could kill countless goblins on his own. With the 20,000 elite cavalrymen around him, the faint-blue cavalry legion was an unstoppable current. They dashed around amongst the goblins, and the enemies quickly collapsed like snowflakes on a hot summer day.
"Nice! Awesome!" Commander Gerard of Liverpool felt like his blood was boiling, and he turned around and shouted, "Your Highness, I"m willing to lead the troop of Liverpool to a.s.sist General Kompany, completely wiping out these goblins and avenging the dead humans!"
The Valkyrie turned toward Gerard and lightly shook her head.
"Your Highness…"
Gerard was surprised that his request would be denied. After a short pause, he was about to say something, but he saw the indisputable majesty and seriousness in Elena"s calm eyes. Therefore, he temporarily backed away.
"Be prepared to help General Kompany and his troop retreat in safety." Elena"s face got more and more concerned, and she issued a command.
"Huh?" Everyone was surprised and couldn"t understand what the Head Commander meant.
"Kompany is at an advantage; why do we need to be prepared to help him?"
The Valkyrie continued, "General Gerard, General Shaarawy, General Ca.s.sano, and General Ramos, you four need to go to the four sides of the campsite and set up Fist Spiritual Spatial Seals, locking down all areas around the campsite. Also, pa.s.s my order! All soldiers need to pull back and be on the defense."
Military commands couldn"t be questioned.
Before the expeditionary troop set off, everyone agreed on the rules, and they all had to listen to the Valkyrie"s commands.
Although people like Gerard and Shaarawy didn"t know what was going on, they had to execute Elena"s orders.
While the Valkyrie was talking, the situation on the battleground further away took an unexpected turn.
The unrivaled cavalry legion of Manchester City that was at an advantage charged back and forth in the goblins, killing close to 200,000 enemies. Now, the warhorses were a bit fatigued, and the impact that they had within their charges weakened.
There were too many goblins. Even if all the goblins stood there and let these 20,000 elite cavalrymen kill them, these cavalrymen couldn"t finish them all.
Now, the cavalrymen"s arms were sore from swinging their weapons, and they would sometimes get sneak-attacked by those agile goblins.
Also, goblin zeppelins flew over these cavalrymen in the low sky with loud booming noises, shooting out magic missiles and arrows.
These zeppelins also weren"t afraid of destruction. They flew chaotically in the air, and it was quite easy for the masters in the cavalry legion of Manchester City to shoot them down. In fact, sometimes a single zeppelin would slam into other zeppelins, causing tragic scenes.
Goblins were a bunch of beasts that didn"t know the word "fear". They didn"t care about their own lives, let alone their peers" lives.
These creatures were all crazy and on the offense all the time. To them, a war was like a game, and life itself was also a game.
The huge gap in strength between human soldiers and goblin soldiers was filled by the shocking difference in numbers.
Soon, the true goblin masters in this military force appeared one after another.
About seven emperor-level goblins who were equivalent to Sun-Cla.s.s Lords appeared first, and they tried to sneak-attack Kompany and kill him. However, Kompany was a powerful warrior and killed them each with one punch.

Chapter 1157: The Battle of G.o.ds" Fall (Part Three)
Then, a series of terrifying energies rippled through the air. Green figures flashed by, representing the attacks from terrifying masters.
These were demi-G.o.dly goblins! There were indeed G.o.d-level goblins in this battle.
With terrifying green energy flames burning around them, these giant goblins flew over from afar and tied down the head of the cavalrymen, Kompany.
Boom!
Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions sounded in the sky, and terrifying energy waves radiated outward like a storm.
To prevent ordinary soldiers from being injured by the residual energy spilled from the battle between supreme masters, Kompany had to fly into the air and battle the goblin masters. However, the G.o.d-level goblins didn"t care about the lives of these ordinary goblins, and they unleashed their full strength. Since Kompany"s hands were tied, he fell into a pa.s.sive state.
Standing before the campsite, Elena suddenly grasped in thin-air, and a strangely-shaped bow appeared in her hand. A suffocating pressure that could make supreme masters tremble appeared.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Four arrows of light instantly appeared, and four demi-G.o.dly goblins died in the sky in the next second.
"Receive the troop of Manchester City! Make sure that they return to the campsite safely!" the Valkyrie ordered, and she dashed forward like a bolt of lightning and appeared in the high sky in the next moment.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Destructive energy waves appeared in the sky. The Valkyrie"s body flashed, and she battled with a giant goblin who had the most brilliant green energy flames around him.
This was a goblin who was equivalent to a true G.o.d.
Kompany was affected by the energy waves from the battle between these two true G.o.ds, and he screamed and fell from the sky.
Fortunately, Kompany wasn"t too injured. He instantly coordinated with supreme masters such as Shaarawy and Ca.s.sano, killing dozens of emperor-level goblins and saving the remaining 15,000 elite cavalrymen of Manchester City from death.
More and more goblins appeared on the land, and they rushed over like a flood.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Fist Spiritual Spatial Seals that were set up around the campsite all exploded. It seemed like an invisible mill appeared between the sky and the land, instantly turning countless goblins into blood foam. Blood and fragmented bones flowed toward the low-lying terrain. Hundreds of thousands of goblins were crushed by the demi-G.o.dly strength that were sealed around the campsite.
In the sky, the terrifying G.o.dly battle was still ongoing.
The Valkyrie showcased unimaginable strength. Instead of using her bow and arrows, an ancient spear appeared in her hands, and she battled two goblin G.o.ds on her own!
She was fighting with one true goblin G.o.d, but another soon joined.
Even though this was the case, Elena wasn"t at a disadvantage.
The terrifying pressure spread out, and a series of spider-web-like cracks appeared in the sky.
Further away, the orange magic shields lit up around the campsite of the expeditionary troop, blocking the residual energy waves from the G.o.dly battle.
However, those goblins weren"t so lucky. Wherever the residual energy waves went, large groups of goblin soldiers were turned into green smoke and disappeared.
The land cracked, and lava and water jetted out of the ground at the same time.
The area was about to be destroyed! The battle between G.o.ds could make all living creatures shiver.
The supreme masters from other empires were stunned by this. They already noticed that the Valkyrie was powerful, but they didn"t expect her to be this dominating.
Now knowing Elena"s terrifying strength, these people wondered how powerful Human Emperor Alexander of the North was. They became fearful just thinking about it, and they knew that only the Northern Region Empire could rival the Holy Church.
Boom!
Another explosion sounded in the sky.
Elena pierced a goblin G.o.d"s head, and he exploded into millions of pieces.
A G.o.d had fallen!
The battle was indescribably tragic!
