บท 55: Shadowghast Knight and Black Warrior

Alex had finished her modest portion of food quickly, just as the undead outside began to return, carrying the bodies of the Hobgoblins.

"Take your time, I'm going to check outside," she said, setting down her fork and standing up from the kitchen table.

In the courtyard, the undead were methodically placing the Hobgoblin corpses into the Blackwater Altar. Given the small stature of the average Hobgoblin, a single gargoyle could grasp four of them in its two hands. 

There were only about one hundred and twenty Hobgoblins in total, each at least level 5, including two at the Commanding level—the Hobgoblin Brute and the Hobgoblin Mage.

Alex surmised that these one hundred and twenty Hobgoblins constituted a complete squad sent to investigate the demise of the Goblin tribe. Due to the presence of only her and Chi-Chi's castles nearby, and her castle being shielded by the Specter Chandelier, the Hobgoblins had failed to detect her fortress.
