(Surprise, it’s a 5000-collection bonus update!)

Everything seemed to be going smoothly, all according to plan.

However, two fish managed to slip through the net, a goblin and a werewolf failed.

Two gray-skinned orcs were lucky to escape, and they diverged their angle and ran towards Salmon Village.

But before they had time to shout out a warning, a lightning-tinged short arrow shot into the back of one orc’s head.

As for the other orc, its skull was crushed by a hawkman that descended from the sky.

Although there was some commotion during the operation, overall, it didn’t significantly impact the sleeping monsters in Salmon Village.

Gaz frowned. An ambush had almost gone wrong even in such an advantageous situation. Monsters that could join the Thunder Legion were indeed much stronger than ordinary gnolls.

Link was commanding his werewolves to quickly clean up the scene, and a curved longsword hung at his waist.

Because of the same reason as Gaz, Sofia had granted him the unique magic item from the Green Dragon Treasury, the Thunder Longsword.

Link, born into a hereditary noble family, loved this elegant weapon, and its effects were also very practical.

After waiting for the kobold miners to finish digging, Mega Fatty and his ogre mages who specialized in the Great Fireball skill arrived.

Apart from the ogres, a large group of shivering kobolds out of fear was also one of the protagonists today.

At Gaz’s request, these professional miners were digging underground with their crude tools at an astonishing speed.

After staying in place for some time, and when the group of grimy-faced kobolds crawled out of the tunnel, Gaz’s plan had just begun.

Like arranged in advance, several lizardman scouts guided the ogre magicians stealthily to the west and east sides of Salmon Village.

Furthermore, they were accompanied by robust subterranean giant lizards carrying large amounts of dry firewood and deadwood.

The reserved southern side faced the Soaring Dragon Legion, while the farthest northern side was assigned to Mega Fatty himself.

At this time, in the southern part of Salmon Village.

A large group of yawning bear people had already grown very impatient.

If it weren’t for their leader, Doke, who was personally suppressing them, they would have returned to their respective homes and found a place to nap, instead of staying out in the cold.

Besides an odd underground tremor they had felt earlier, there were no other movements in the surroundings.

Doke looked up at the sky, and if there was no movement, it would be dawn soon.

Just when Blackbird was about to say something out of impatience.

Unbelievably huge fireballs were thrown into Salmon Village from outside, throwing the whole surrounding area into chaos.

Salmon Village was small in size and mostly made of wooden buildings. It didn’t have wells like human villages, either.

So, there was no chance of putting out the fire.

The moment the flames exposed, they spread rapidly and uncontrollably, engulfing the entire Salmon Village in searing heat.

Some unlucky monsters were even killed by the fireballs directly.

Most monsters were afraid of fire, not just due to their nature.

Except for some special monsters, fire was nearly always a fatal weakness for the rest of them.

Almost all the monsters screamed, running out of their burning wooden houses in a frenzy.

They shoved other monsters around them, fearing that they would be buried in the sea of fire if they were any slower.

Because of the overwhelming noise and crowded surroundings.Some smaller and less fortunate creatures were unable to get back up after falling.

Under the feet of larger monsters, these poor souls became lumps of mashed flesh.

Salmon Village, being mostly made of wood, became a breeding ground for flames, with deadly fires everywhere.

Thick walls of fire also erupted on the village’s outskirts, making it difficult to pass through.

These walls of fire were suspiciously neat and blocked all the village exits, clearly being a man-made product.

But under such chaotic circumstances, few monsters bothered to investigate, as most of them were preoccupied with escaping the terrifying inferno.

Soon they found one area to be much safer, almost devoid of any flames.

It was at the southern end of the village, where the bear people currently resided.

By this point, some monsters suspected that this fire was a premeditated trap, but with scorching flames all around them, it seemed as if there was only one option left.

Compared to risking burn injuries or even death by trying to cross the walls of fire, the relatively safer southern end of the village was the choice for most monsters.

Unlike the panicking monsters, Doke had been with his clan from the beginning, guarding this area, and they had seen those outrageously large fireballs.

Doke furrowed his brows, realizing that whoever was behind this also had some sort of heritage.

Of the more than 300 bear people, only Blackbird had acquired some rudimentary druid spells, making him about as proficient as a lizardman shaman.

This showed just how vital heritage is among ordinary monsters.

The reason why the Blue Storm Clan of ogres could firmly rule over the Thunder Legion for so long is because they held the heritage of the berserkers and lightning spells.

Simply put, the monsters called it heritage, which is actually the knowledge of nurturing various elites.

Seeing that many other monsters had already appeared around them and Doke still had not given any indication, Blackbird anxiously asked, “Boss, what do we do now?”

Finally snapping out of his trance, Doke immediately replied, “Proceed with the original plan! Lead all the other monsters out of the village!”

Upon receiving Doke’s order, all the bear people sprang into action.

Originally, the narrow southern end couldn’t accommodate that many monsters, but under the enthusiastic guidance of the bear people, most of them began to run towards the outskirts.

Meanwhile, the bear people hid themselves behind the last group of monsters, even maintaining a certain distance from them.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the forefront of the band of monsters.

Without needing Doke’s command, Blackbird instantly turned into a giant black-feathered eagle and took to the sky.

He soon discovered a row of massive subterranean giant lizards at the

forefront of the group of fleeing monsters.

On the backs of these giant lizards were one or more lizardmen.

They exerted their full strength, launching large wooden spears towards the horde of monsters that had just escaped Salmon Village.

One after another, monsters fell beneath the onslaught of spears.

Given their tightly packed conditions, the lizardman spear throwers didn’t even need to aim accurately.

The deaths of their companions didn’t bring fear to these monsters but stimulated their ferocity instead.

More importantly, compared to their nearly 3,000-strong numbers, that row of lizardman spear throwers was nothing.

Furthermore, though the subterranean giant lizards were large and could carry many things, they weren’t very agile.

As long as they could charge forward, victory would undoubtedly be theirs!
