Chapter 36: Humans vs Goblins (IV)
---Chapter 34: Humans vs Goblins (IV)---
After successfully repelling the goblin commander for the time being, I drank a healing potion and then hid under a wall to protect myself from the hundred of arrows raining upon the walls.
The soldiers were already taking cover behind some stone blocks I placed before as a method of protection from projectiles.
Alright...

Name: Aspen (Aeron)
[Human...]
Age: 19 (38)
-Status:
[Hp: 72/240] [Mana: 0/40]
[Bleeding: can't auto-regenerate HP] (1 hours left)
°°°°°°

The potion seemed to have sealed some wounds on my severed arm, and reduced the time left for the bleeding to finally stop. So I just needed a proper rest and I then could regenerate my HP.
Sigh...
I looked once again at the battlefield.
"We already lost the advantage we had over the goblins at preventing them from counter attacking. From now on it will be a real war..."
I drank a mana potion from my inventory and prepared myself to start using my 'Tree-drills' and my 'Tree-chainsaws'. once again.
...
"No... this won't work. Even If I start butchering some goblins with my magic, It will be too hard to fight by myself alone..."
I glanced once again at the archer division and the ones controlling the catapults, which they were currently all taking cover under the walls I created to protect ourselves from projectiles.
I need them to start counter-attacking so that we can create chaos once again inside their army.
Maybe I can create a new 'Tree' Invention?
"HEY GUYS! I NEED YOU ALL TO START COUNTER-ATTACKING THE GOBLINS WITH THE CATAPULTS AND THE BOWS!" I yelled at the soldiers under the rain of arrows.
"BUT SIR ASPEN, WE CAN'T. WE COULD BE FILLED WITH ARROWS ONCE WE LEAVE THIS WALLS AND START CHARGING OUR ATTACKS!"
"DON'T WORRY, I WILL TAKE CARE OF THAT!" My lips curled upwards at the thought of a new technique.
I started gathering my full mana once again and prepared to control all the trees around these walls.
Using all my mana at the same time caused me a sharp headache that soon ended up in me kneeling on the floor with my hands pointing upwards.
The surrounding trees fused their ends all together and soon created a giant ball made of wood that soon took the shape of a giant shield that extended all across the walls.
I drank another mana potion because this amount of control was too exhausting, and ended up getting mana sickness once again.
'Fuck... I feel like shit...'
The pain on my severed arm, the headache, the dizziness, the loss of so much blood, and now the urges to vomit, pressured on my mind on a great extent.
Thankfully, the stat [Mental stability] helped me a lot to maintain my concentration on the battlefield.
I glanced at Neo that was at my side, next to his other birdie companions.
"I need you to go and attack all the goblin archers you find on your way directly on the eyes"
*Chirp!*
****Chirp!****
All of them departed towards the battlefield, and I started moving the shield once again, in order for it to protect our troops from the hundred of arrows.
Although the arrows were sometimes piercing the thick giant shield, they end up losing all their momentum when hitting it, just to start falling to the ground uselessly after losing their imposing speed.
"START PREPARING!!!" The commander of our army yelled at the soldiers. Who soon started charging the catapults, and pointing their bows at the goblin army beyond the giant shield.
I glanced once again at my mana.
-[HP: 72/240 Mana: 21/40]
"Haaaah..." I exhaled in a tired tone.
...
"I wanna go home..." I looked at the sky while still maintaining my concentration on the spell "I will go and take some holidays after this shitty war. My body and my mind can't take it anymore...
Hmm...
Maybe I could craft a portable bed so that I can sleep anywhere I want in the future...
Hmmmmmmm...
How nice could a bed be in this situation...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
A bed...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
I wanna sleep for a bit...
"SIR ASPEN, THE SHIELD IS DESTABILIZING!!!"
Oh shit, I dozed off for a moment.
"SORRY!!"
The shield soon stabilized and continued protecting the soldiers while they prepared everything.
I guess even my improved stats can't save me from tiredness...

(A few minutes later...)
Come on, I don't want to drink more mana potions...
I looked once again at the potion beside me and almost puked from disgust...
"Bleh..." I suppressed my urges to vomit
I think I will become allergic to these things.
"SIR ASPEN, EVERYTHING IS READY!!!"
Oh, thank god...
Alright, time to finish this.
I used all my mana left and launched the giant Tree-shield towards the army of goblins.
"What is that?!"
"Oh mama goblin, I don't want to die this young!"
"Save me commander!!!"
The screams of horror from the goblins covered the whole battlefield after seeing such a gigantic object falling on them.
Sadly, I couldn't manage to launch it far enough to kill the whole army. Instead, it probably was gonna hit at least a 20% or so of the goblin army.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!*
The whole battlefield was covered in a giant cloud of dust after the impact of the shield, and the screams and sorrows of the goblins ceased completely.
"Let's hope they all died after that attack..."
While the dust cloud cleared out I decided to drink a healing potion to recover a bit of my HP before any new danger appeared. I have been close enough to death today, there's no need to stay at such low HP while in the middle of a war.
*Gulp*
*Gulp*
*Gulp*
"Puh..." I took out the empty bottle and placed it on my inventory once again.
This time the bleeding from my arm completely stopped, and I even recovered a part of it!
Though it just recovered until my elbow. But at least I was now sure that I could recover my arm as long as my HP recovered fully.
Even now I could see my flesh recovering bit by bit now that I had my auto-healing ability back after stopping the bleeding, however, it was still recovering at a very slow pace.
It could at least take a few hours for it to recover completely...
I looked at my status once again.

Alright, now I have half of my HP... Hmm... Maybe I could focus on finding a mushroom biome on the underground, so I can produce healing and mana potions of a higher quality using the glowing mushrooms that grow there.
But obviously only after having my holidays.
"PREPARE TO ATTACK!!!"
Oh shoot, the dust cloud cleared already...
"Hmm..." I observed the numbers left of the surviving goblins
There should be only 1200 goblins more to kill. But if they could retreat then my job could be a lot easier...
"Charge!!!" The goblins screamed in rage.
I guess we will do it on the bad way.
The archers and catapults soon began attacking the goblin army with all they had. However, unlike the last time, the goblins this time were shooting arrows as well.
Of course, I started once again using my 'Tree-drills' and my 'Tree-chainsaw to cut every goblin on the way, most preferably the warriors, since they were the most troublesome bunch thanks to their tankiness.
Hmm?
That's when I noticed a certain movement under a rock on the battlefield.
Oh fuck, don't tell me-...
The boulder was moved away and soon a giant and strong figure rose from the ground while holding an enormous sword with just one hand.
His bloodshot eyes started looking in my direction, and soon we ended up making eye contact.

Sigh...
Why does life hate me so much...?
"HUMAAAAAAAAAAN!!!" The goblin commander started running at full speed in my direction while screaming in rage and fury.
The last fight between us huh?
So be it.
Chapter 37: Humans vs Goblins (V)
---Chapter 35: Humans vs Goblins (V)---
...
As I saw the goblin commander running towards me like a furious bull, I decided to go down the wall and fight him on a more open space, since the soldiers were needed to concentrate on the goblin army, I couldn't allow them to get distracted with this guy. Otherwise, the goblins could reach the wall, and we could all be doomed.
"SO YOU'RE RUNNING NOW LITTLE HUMAN?!" I heard the goblin commander scream in rage at me when he saw me jump down the wall.
"I WILL RIP YOU INTO PIECES FIRST, AND THEN THE HUMANS ON THIS WALL WILL BECOME MY NEXT PREY!!"
"Yeah, sure"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!" The goblin commander yelled in frustration at seeing me so calm.
I landed at the bottom of the wall and then started running on the contrary direction.
Of course, a certain green giant landed some meters behind me and then started chasing me furiously while swinging his giant sword from side to side, ready to chop me into pieces.
I turned my head and pointed my finger directly at his eye while gathering mana on the tip of it.
'Water beam'
*Pew!*
A powerful small beam of water shot directly from my finger towards the eye of the goblin commander.
"THAT WON'T WORK AGAIN!!" He blocked the beam of water using the side of his arm while grinning in a smug manner.
Unable to even hurt him, the beam of water dissipated into nothingness without even damaging his arm. Leaving nothing but a bit of wetness on his arm.
When he became sure the beam dissipated, he moved down his arm, in order to see more crearly what was in front of him.
"HAHAHA, NOW THERE'S NOWHERE TO-"
'Water beam'
*Pew!*
"STOP IT!"
*Pew!*
"I TOLD YOU TO-"
*Pew!*
"FUCK!!"
*Pew!*
"YOU FUCKING HUMAN COWARD, FIGHT ME HEAD ON!!"
The goblin became unable to move his arm away from his eyes, as he started to get barraged by dozens of water beams every time he left his eyes unprotected for me to attack.
Of course, this was not going to kill him. But instead, It was giving me the time to prepare another attack.
*BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM-!!!*
A giant 'Tree-chainsaw' appeared out of nowhere while he was still unable to see in front of him due to his arm blocking his vision. And attacked directly at him, ready to cut him down in half.
"Useless" The goblin commander said while smiling behind his arm. Soon he lifted his sword and then slammed it down, creating a small explosion and breaking appart the 'Tree-Chainsaw' with just his brute force.
*BOOOM!!*
What?! Impossible!!
That's what my face seemed to express, however, it was all part of my plan from the very beginning.
*SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!*
A 'Tree-drill' Suddenly came out from under the ground and tried to stab the goblin commander directly on the place of his heart, making use of the small gap that was created on his defense after being attacked by the Tree-chainsaw.
"You coward...!" The goblin commander muttered angrily when he noticed my actions, however, he soon lifted his sword and slammed it down on the tree-drill to prevent it from getting a clean hit on his chest.
Unfortunately. The Tree-drill was already too close, which made him unable to use his full strength on the swing, and ended up creating a clash between his sword and the Tree-drill.
*SCRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!* The horrifying sound of a drill clashing and piercing against hard metal soon filled the whole area.
*Crack*
*Crack...Crack*
Oh, I like that sound...
The sound of something breaking came directly from the sword that was being wielded by the goblin commander. Unable to resist the fierceness of my majestic Tree-drill, it soon started breaking apart, leaving the goblin commander unprotected against the attack.
The goblin cursed and jumped backwards to avoid being hit by the drill. Something that I took advantage of, by drinking another Mana potion while he was busy.
It actually refused to go down my throat for a second, but in the end I managed to drink it completely.
"This magic... I see, so you are the dryad... THEN THERE ARE EVEN MORE REASONS FOR ME TO KILL YOU!!!" The goblin finally realized the obvious truth, despite the facts that every time he attacked me, this Tree like weapons appeared out of nowhere ready to protect me. Was it really that hard to figure out that I was the 'dryad'?
Well, better for me then.
While he was dodging the drill, I started throwing several slime-gel bombs at him, with the intention to cover him up completely in the so flammable gel.
*Splash!*
"DAMMED HUMAN!!"
I ignored his complaints and shot a few flaming arrows at him in order to set his body completely in fire to start accumulating damage through the battle.
Although he blocked most of the arrows, some sparks still flew in the direction of the areas covered in gel and covered the goblin in flames.
Alright, now let's-
"Human..."
Hmm?
Bulging veins appeared on the head of the goblin, and his eyes became bloodshot the moment he was set on fire.
The goblin commander stopped dodging the attacks from the Tree-drill and faced it head on.
Soon the bulging veins on his body extended towards his arm and his muscles became much more pronounced than before.
"I'll leave nothing but pure meat paste out of your dead body"
*BOOOOOM!!*
The hands of the goblin commander grabbed the drill with nothing but brute force, and started tightening their grip with the intention of breaking it.
*SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!*
[You have dealt 7 damage]
[You have dealt 28 damage]
[You have dealt 35 damage]
[You have dealt 48 damage]
[You have dealt 57 damage]
[You have dealt 67 damage]
The sound of meat being cutted soon filled the area and black smoke started coming out from the hands of the goblin commander at the contact with the spinning giant drill.
"There's no way he will be able to stop such a gigantic drill with nothing but just his hands..."
...
...Right...?
*Crack*
*Crack*
*Crack Crack*
Oh, shit!
How can this be even fair?!
*CRACK!!*
The Tree-drill broke apart, unable to resist the super-OP strength of the goblin commander, leaving a pool of blood on the hands of the goblin commander
His appearance now had crimson eyes and steam coming out of his body now and then. Adding the flames covering his body, I could even believe that this guy has even became a super saiyan due to his rage against me...
I looked at his eyes to check his status once more, mostly because I had an ominous feeling about that new appearance of his.

[Fractured bones: Restraints the movements of the body a bit]
[On fire!: gets covered in flames and Suffers constant damage]

The body of this guy is so fucking damaged, but he still has more than 4000 HP...
If there was an author writing this as a novel, I could say that he is just spewing pure bullshit because he likes me to suffer.
How the hell is he still above 4000 HP?!
How is he so fucking alive, even after having his body so trashed?!
"HUMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNN!!!" The giant Tree-drill was launched at a horrifying speed in my direction. Ready to impale me completely.
I dodged it barely thanks to my reaction speed. However, It was then that I noticed that the amount of trees on the surroundings were decreasing.
At this rate I will lose my only way to damage this fucker...
"HUMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNN!!!" The goblin commander lunged at me furiously with even more speed than before.
"Sigh..."
I wanna go home...

Thinking of a way for Aspen to kill the goblin commander was kinda hard.
