I Become Master of Danger Zones as Incubus With Mastery In Genetic

After the fiasco of the second day, Gobruk decided to consult his master on their next move. While he is smart, he is not as smart of his master.

"Your usage of siege engines is acceptable, but you are lacking abilities in building a proper one, with most of them destroyed after the first or several shots," it turned out, the enemies of siege engines are shoddy engineering, as none of the soldiers engines were destroyed by enemy's spell.

"While it is impressive for you to learn new skills to assist in the battle, and would likely help in the future, you can still use the common strategies used by monsters.

Experimenting can be done after we get some professionals in building siege engines and other discipline, but for now, stick to what will work, especially with our numerical superiority,"

Gobruk bowed to it's master, impressed by how smart he is. He will do as he told them. After all, monsters are known for their massed attack, though he will add some surprises to the regular technique used by his kind.

"They are marching towards us!" one of the soldiers shouted. His shouts was heard by the others, who began to prepare for the first battle.

On the walls, the soldiers began to speak to one another.

"Hey, how many monsters do you think we can kill in the first day?" one of them said.

"Beats me. But I'm sure I can score at least 5 Goblins," another one replies.

"Hah, would you like to bet? I sure you cannot kill 5 of those weakling,"

"Well, what do you want to bet,"

As the soldiers talk among themselves, one was an outlier, eyes focusing on the monsters forces.

'They are not talking this seriously,' Lina thought. She is a regular soldier, thought she was treated slightly worse compared to others.

After all, she is the only woman in her company. She wanted to be move towards some other companies with more women or even having female superiors but she was not lucky and instead served a dumb pig instead.

The dumb pig likely joined with connection. That is something she was sure off due to some stupid strategies used by the pig in previous battles.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

She wondered if she could report him, but decided against it. She become a soldier to support her family while gaining some independence of her own. If she tried to report the man, it'd likely his backing would kick her out. Your next read awaits at empire

She would have become an adventurer instead but she did not have the skills necessary to survive the harsh life, so she went to become a soldier instead. It helped that she was tomboyish in nature, which allow her to adapt to the harsh life.

Still, the pig leading her company seem intent on making her miserable until he bed her.

She sighed, wondering if there is any way to deal with the pig without having to resort to killing.

Her inner thought was broken when one of her compatriots yelled, "They are coming! Get ready!" at once, she picked up her shields and short spear, ready to battle against the monsters.

As the monsters get close to the walls, they are subjected to numerous abuses, from rock thrown at them, to having boiling oils poured on them.

However, they persevered even as they are being shot with arrows and impaled by spears as they make their way up the walls using ladders. The ladders in question are enhanced by some of the Witches, who made it so the end will impale the walls, allowing it to not be kicked and resulting in large amount of death.

As some managed to get at the top, they are cornered immediately, which resulted in their swift death. However, the monsters they are facing were smarter than anything they handled before.

Seeing their fellows getting massacred, those at the bottom showed supports by raining arrows to the defenders. Some also throw rocks at them while a large Hulking Hobgoblin decided to do a fastball special and throw a heavily armored Goblin as projectile.

The latter proved to be surprisingly effective, killing a large number of soldiers as they were thrown of the walls. Realizing this, more Goblins were ordered to be clad in armors or tied stones before being used as projectiles. While they died either on the air or when they landed, which is not a pretty sight, they still great amount of damage to the soldiers.

"Block them! Have your shield up and try to not get thrown of the wall of you cannot dodge the Goblins!" one of the officers said, as his men did as they were told.

And so, began a very weird game called Dodge Goblins, as soldiers tried to avoide getting hit by the green projectiles moving as fast as arrows.

While they are distracted by the new weapons in the monsters' arsenal, some of the monsters managed to climb the walls before facing off against the soldiers. While they are pushed back, the resistance was reduced as the continuous thrown Goblins made it harder for them to support the others.

And so, more monsters manage to get at the very top, including some Goblin Guards and Goblin Elites, both C and B-rank monsters respectively.

While the soldiers are strong, they are only at D-rank, and so, find themselves overwhelmed by the stronger Goblins. At the other part of the wall, they also face the other monsters, with Orcs and Lizardmen proving to be too much for them to handle, forcing the elite soldiers to jump in.

Lina growled as she hacked her current opponent. The Goblins she was facing is bigger and stronger than any others she faced beforehand. Either they are variants or there are stronger Goblins.

She believed it to be the latter. Still, the pig keep yelling at the company to block the monsters while he ran away, she will not call it a retreat when he was fleeing for his life.

She manage to dodge a slash at her head before swinging her swords at the monsters unprotected neck. Her aim strike true as she manage to kill the monster. Before she could celebrate though, the pig ran towards her before stabbing the already dead monster.

"Look how I kill this strong Goblin!" his proclamation was met with disgusted look but unfortunately, none of them could stand against him.

She bit back a retort before continue to battle the monsters. In her mind though, she wonder if it's too hard to just get killed by one of the stronger monsters.
