[601-800] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 773: Tribes

Spring Land, Mine Valley, and Earthen Woods. These three regions formed a triangle shape at the edge of the Hall Plains. Spring Land and Earthen Woods were both larger than Mine Valley.

Mine Valley was ruled by a group of cities. These cities didn’t belong to any country or kingdom. They have created their own government.

Spring Land was ruled by a kingdom and various factions. It has a kingdom that was acknowledge as the strongest faction in the entire region.

Earthen Woods was different. It was just a huge jungle filled with countless tribes. These tribes fought each other every year for territory and food. They were very aggressive. Even merchants avoided this land since those would only plunder them. Without enough strength, a person couldn’t even walk out of this land.

But now… Someone unified the tribes in the Earthen Woods. It was hard to achieve it since there were various powerful tribes that could even rival the top factions in Spring Land. Even the Mine Valley would be nothing once the Earthen Woods was unified.

“The Enruet City had fallen…” The guard said.

Enruet City. The overlord of this city was powerful and even Second Head wasn’t sure if he could defeat the City Lord of this city. Yet, the Enruet City had fallen overnight.

“I want you to send the message to the other Heads of the Dragon Council. We need to plan for the counterattack.” Second Head said.

“Sir, Governor Ray left a message that you will be in charge of the Dragon Council for a while. The other Heads are with the Governor for some important matters.” The guard explained.

“What?!” Second Head opened his eyes widely. Aside from him, the other Heads of the Dragon Council were gone. They were absent at this crucial time.

“What a timing…”

He turned his head and looked at the army outside the city. He noticed that they were retreating. It seems that they also heard the news about what happened in Enruet City.

Second Head took a deep breath as he closed his eyes. After a while, he opened his eyes and tightly clenched his fist.

“Send a message to activate the war formation of every city under the Dragon Council. Also, call back our forces in the perimeter of the Mine Valley and set up a defensive barricade near the Enruet City.” Second Head paused and added, “Since I’m the only Head available, the forces of the other Heads would follow me, right?”

“Yes, sir. We’ve received a report that they will follow your orders until the Heads came back. They’ve appointed a second-in-command that will make up a decision for the Heads. You can talk to them, Sir.” The guard said.

“Good. The three cities aren’t important anymore. A stronger enemy appeared at this time so we’ll focus on our defense to wait for them to attack once again. So once we gather enough data on our enemy forces we’ll be able to counterattack efficiently.” Second Head decided at the moment. He waved his hand and said to the guard, “You can go now.”

After the guard left, Second Head sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose. He looked up and recalled that Elder Guan was still here.

“Ekatoe City doesn’t have any defensive or war formation array, right? Do you want me to help you set up a temporary array for defense?” Second Head asked.

“I’ll talk about it to Alice but I don’t think you should focus on our city first. You should set up a trap near Enruet City as soon as possible in case they advanced their troops. I’m sure that’s what Alice will say.” Elder Guan said.
