Chapter 474: Clear the Checkpoint

Karl directed Thor to move off into the grass, away from the road where the monsters had set up rocks and a fallen tree to block the way.

There were no ditches to the dirt road, and it was in open grassland. There was nothing stopping them from going around, but it didn't bode well for the monsters' intelligence.

Fortunately, or perhaps unfortunately for them, the hobgoblins and their Ogre overseers were not stupid enough to miss the fact that Karl was driving a wagon past them only a hundred metres away in an open field.

They lacked any sort of organization as they charged across the field, shouting and waving their weapons.

In the distance, Hawk noted that the guards from town came out when the monsters had started shouting, then went back in when they realized that the monsters were headed away from town.
