Chapter 35: Chasing

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wendy held a short sword and quickly jumped in a certain direction. Soon, she sneaked into another dense forest. As soon as she entered, she immediately went into hiding because she found many kobolds lurking under the trees, staring coldly at the advancing group of foxes.

These kobolds looked very fierce. Although their names were related to the word “dog”, compared to dogs, they were much more annoying. In the Beastmen Kingdom, kobolds and goblins were the two most annoying races.

Kobolds liked to live in caves. They often dug and emptied out half a mountain and lived in it. They were not suitable for farming and ate a variety of food. When they were hungry, they would eat anything.

In this locust plague, the kobold tribe had set their eyes on Wendy’s tribe. However, Wendy did not expect that not only did they want to take away the tribe’s food, they also had other plans.

A kobold suddenly said, “Logan, there’s something wrong with these foxes. Where are they planning to go?”

Although their noses were sensitive, they did not notice Wendy because Wendy was good at hiding. When she was hiding, even Mary might not be able to find her.

“I don’t know. The plague of locusts is coming soon. If we don’t have enough food, these foxes are a good option. We can’t let them leave. Wade, you keep an eye on them. I’ll inform the patriarch. They don’t have enough food, they won’t be able to run far.” The kobold was ready to leave after saying that.

She could not let them go back and report the news!

Wendy immediately moved. She jumped down from the tree like a swallow and pounced on the kobold. She was very fast. The kobold named Logan was killed by Wendy before he could come back to his senses. After Wendy killed him, she also killed the other kobold beside him. As an assassin who had been trained since young, Wendy’s skills were on par with Mary’s.

At this time, the kobolds noticed her and cried out, “Fox!”

One of the kobolds slashed the weapon in his hand at Wendy. Wendy countered it with her sword and directly cut the kobold’s weapon into two. She used more strength and directly stabbed the kobold’s head. Following that, she pulled out her short sword and slashed at another kobold. She had killed so many kobolds in a few seconds, which made the other kobolds immediately want to escape.

“Don’t even think about running!”

Wendy held her sword and chased after the kobolds. In a few minutes, all the kobolds were killed by her. She stood among the kobolds’ corpses, panting heavily. Suddenly, her expression changed. She saw a small group of kobolds leaving a few hundred meters away. The distance was too far for her to catch up to them.

She immediately gave up on the idea of catching up with the kobolds. After she wiped her short sword clean, she quickly left the place. She rushed to the main group of foxmen and told everyone the news of the kobolds chasing after them. All the foxmen immediately quickened their pace and rushed toward Lin Tian’s tribe with all their might.

On the other side, on a wooded mountain, many kobolds were digging the ground. However, they were not developing. They were only doing it to dig up all the produces in the forest in one go.

“What? The foxmen escaped? Logan is dead?”

A few hours after Wendy killed the kobolds, the kobold tribe finally received the news. The kobold was furious because Logan was his child.

He immediately made a decision. “Everyone stop. We will catch those foxmen immediately!”

Soon, many kobolds chased after the foxmen. They were faster than the foxmen as they desperately chased after them. In the group of foxes, Wendy kept urging them to speed up. Fortunately, these foxmen had just eaten compressed biscuits. Otherwise, they would be tired and hungry, and would not be able to run fast.

At the border of the Beastmen Kingdom and the Human Kingdom, a chase had started. Under Wendy’s urging, the foxmen continued to speed up. Wendy was not at ease. She knew that if this was the maximum speed they could maintain, they would be caught by the kobolds the next day.

Just like how the amount of water that could be contained in a wooden bucket depended on the shortest wooden board, the speed of the foxmen depended on the elderly and children, not the young and strong. However, they were all clansmen of the same tribe, and Wendy would not abandon them. The younger foxmen were already supporting and even carrying the elderly. If Wendy was alone, she would only need a few hours to reach Lin Tian’s tribe. However, it would take a day with her clansmen.

“Adele, you’re fast. Go and seek help from my master, Lord Lin Tian. I will bring a large group of people with me. We might be caught by the kobolds. The tribesmen don’t have enough stamina to defeat the kobolds. Only by receiving help will we be able to escape.”

The foxmen were not weak in combat, but the kobolds were much more numerous than the foxmen. In terms of physique, the kobolds were stronger and better at field battles.

“Okay!” Adele did not decline and immediately ran toward Lin Tian’s tribe.

Wendy led the rest of the tribe members toward the southwest. It was already nighttime, but the darkness did not affect the foxmen’s vision.

Two hours later, Wendy’s mother, the leader of the foxmen tribe, said, “Wendy, the tribe members don’t have any strength left. Shall we rest for a few minutes?”

Wendy said, “There’s no way we can rest, mother. Once we stop, everyone’s speed will only slow down. Let’s go quickly, the kobolds are getting closer to us.”

Wendy’s mother had no choice but to let the clansmen continue moving forward.

“I’ll stay behind you, you guys leave first.”

Wendy stayed behind and stopped on a tree, taking out a piece of chocolate from her pocket. This piece of chocolate was given to her by Lin Tian. She took a small bite, and the sweet and bitter chocolate melted and turned into a strange taste.

This taste reminded her of Lin Tian. She thought that Lin Tian was just like this piece of chocolate, very strange. Although she had only met Lin Tian twice and had not communicated much with him, the feeling that Lin Tian gave her made her feel that leaving the life she was used to and moving on to a new life was worth it.

She thought that as long as she could survive today, it would be enough. She suddenly looked forward to living by Lin Tian’s side. She closed her eyes and slowly recovered her strength.

More than an hour later, a large group of kobolds appeared. They did not gather together but moved forward separately. With their speed, the kobolds would be able to catch up to the foxmen before dawn. However, Wendy would not allow such a thing to happen.

She jumped down from the tree and struck out with her dagger. In an instant, several kobolds were killed.

The kobolds shouted, “Fox attack!”

However, Wendy had already left, she jumped from tree to tree, and jumped down again, killing several kobolds.

Some kobolds shouted, “Here too!”

Soon, other kobolds began to shout, “Here too, be careful!”
