Chapter 202 The Villain Lady Arrives 30
Everyone sat down upon hearing this and continued to enjoy the food and laughter. However, in this seemingly harmonious atmosphere, everyone had different thoughts and emotions in their hearts. Alice enjoyed the time with her friends, but at the same time she also felt the subtle changes in the relationship between the Third Prince and Tariq;
The third prince was secretly thinking about how to get closer to Alice's heart; while Tariq was silently watching the interaction between Alice and the prince in his heart.
As the night deepened, the campfire gradually died down. The moonlight shone through the sparse clouds, casting mottled shadows and covering the camp with a layer of mysterious silver gauze.
Alice lay on the soft bed in the tent, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She recalled the adventure she had with her friends during the day and the conversation around the campfire at night, and her heart was filled with emotion.
"No matter what the future holds, I hope we can always be together happily like this." Alice prayed silently in her heart, then slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
In another tent, the third prince also had trouble falling asleep. He lay on the bed and looked at the cloth on the top of the tent, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He recalled every detail of his acquaintance with Alice, from the initial misunderstanding to the later mutual understanding and appreciation. He found that he had deeply fallen in love with this brave and kind girl.
"I must make Alice my princess." The third prince swore secretly in his heart and clenched his fists tightly as if he wanted to engrave this determination deeply into his bones.
At the same time, Tariq was tossing and turning in the tent. He was thinking about Alice's smile and the interaction between her and the third prince, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
"As long as Alice is happy, I will be satisfied, but I am so unwilling!!" Tariq said silently in his heart and then slowly closed his eyes and let the tears slide silently.
The moonlight was like water, gently sprinkling on the edge of the magic forest. The camp was quiet and it seemed that even the wind had slowed down, unwilling to disturb this rare peace.
However, this tranquility did not last long. A sudden noise broke the silence of the night, like an undercurrent, foreshadowing the coming storm.
"Something's happening!" A knight suddenly woke up from his dream. He quickly sat up and looked outside the tent vigilantly. It seemed that there were countless pairs of eyes peeping in the darkness.
He gently patted the sleeping magician beside him and whispered urgently, "Wake up, there are enemies approaching!"
The magician was awakened, and he immediately realized the seriousness of the situation in his sleepy eyes. He quickly put on his robe and walked out of the tent with the knight. In the night wind, they clearly heard the low roar and chaotic footsteps coming from afar, getting closer and closer.
"It's a goblin!" The knight's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he quickly looked around, looking for possible defensive positions.
Sure enough, within a moment, a group of goblins with hideous faces and crude weapons appeared in sight. Leading them was a burly goblin warrior with red eyes. Its level badge was faintly visible in the moonlight - level 30, which was undoubtedly a considerable threat to them.
"Get ready for battle!" the knight whispered to the magician, and at the same time quickly blew the whistle hanging on his chest, which was a signal for an emergency assembly.
The whistle sounded in the night sky, sharp and urgent, instantly waking up everyone in the camp. The third prince, Alice, Tariq, and Luna rushed out of the tent almost at the same time, their faces full of confusion and tension. When they saw the scene in front of them, their hearts sank.
"Goblin?" Alice exclaimed, and she quickly looked around to assess the situation. Luna grabbed Alice's sleeve tightly, her eyes full of fear.
"Don't worry, we will protect you." Tariq stood beside Alice, his voice firm and warm. He drew his sword and prepared for battle.
The Third Prince frowned upon seeing this, but his eyes flashed with calmness and determination. He quickly ordered, "Everyone, follow the previous training and form a defensive formation! The knights are in front, the magicians are in the back, and the ranged attackers look for advantageous positions!"
Following the Third Prince's orders, everyone in the camp acted quickly. Although they were tired, they showed amazing cohesion and fighting power in the face of the sudden threat.
The knights stepped forward and built a line of defense with solid shields and sharp swords; the magicians stood behind, ready to release powerful magic to deal a fatal blow to the enemy.
"Alice, you and Luna retreat to a safe place, and leave this place to us." The third prince turned and said to Alice, his tone full of unquestionable determination.
Alice shook her head, her eyes flashing with determination: "No, I want to fight too. I have the ability to protect myself and help you."
The Third Prince looked at Alice's determined eyes, and an inexplicable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart. He nodded and stopped insisting: "Okay, then you have to be careful."
Seeing this, the goblin warrior let out a deafening roar, as if mocking their arrogance. It waved its giant axe and led the goblin squad behind it to charge towards the camp.
"Kill!" The knights roared in unison, holding swords and shields, and bravely rushed forward. The sword lights and axe shadows intertwined in the air, colliding with fierce sparks, and every confrontation was accompanied by the roar of metal and the screams of goblins.
The magicians were not to be outdone. They chanted spells, and brilliant light danced on their fingertips. Beams of magic cut through the night sky, hitting the target accurately and knocking the goblin in the front to the ground. However, the goblins were numerous and fearless. They kept coming from all directions, trying to break through the defense line.
Alice stood aside, her eyes quickly scanning the battlefield, looking for the best time to attack. Suddenly, she saw a goblin taking advantage of the chaos to go around the knights' flank and approaching Luna quietly. Alice's heart tightened, and she rushed out without hesitation.
"Luna, be careful!" She shouted, waving the dagger in her hand and rushing towards the goblin. The dagger drew a beautiful arc in the air and pierced the goblin's chest accurately, killing it with one blow.
Luna looked at Alice in shock, her eyes full of gratitude and admiration. She held Alice's hand tightly, her voice trembling slightly: "Thank you, Alice."
Alice smiled and comforted him, "It's okay, we will get through this together."
The battle continued, and the two sides were in a stalemate. The goblin warrior was obviously the leader of the goblins. With its powerful strength and rich combat experience, it rushed left and right on the battlefield, bringing great pressure to the knights.
Upon seeing this, the Third Prince went into battle himself. He held a long sword inlaid with gems in his hand. The sword shone like a dragon, and every swing was accompanied by a dazzling light, forcing the goblin warriors to retreat again and again.
"Your Highness, be careful!" A knight suddenly shouted. He saw a hidden weapon fly out of the hand of the goblin warrior and headed straight for the third prince. The third prince reacted quickly and dodged it easily by turning sideways, but then more hidden weapons followed, forcing him to be distracted to deal with them.
