《Rise of the Horde 》Chapter 150
Advertisement
The trolls crashed against the goblin riders and drove them back. The left flank of the Yohan warriors was being stabilized with the help of the trolls. They jumped at the goblins and wrestled with their wolf steeds. Howls of pain reverberated all throughout the left flank as the wolves were mercilessly stabbed by the trolls that came charging forward to aid the Yurakks.
"Come! Me, smash you all!" Galum'nor bellowed as he broke away into the front and left the Yurakks behind to storm the goblin riders. Aro'shanna herself came charging just behind the huge frame of Galum'nor as she demolished both wolf and goblin with each properly placed strike of hers. She would spin around after landing her strike, then use the momentum of her previous attack to power her next attack.
Swinging around and around, Aro'shanna decimated the goblin riders with no care. Her speed of attacks increased as she hit more and more of their enemies. She was starting to become a real life top as she stormed forward like a meat grinder. Flesh and blood of both goblin and wolf were being splattered everywhere as she spun and spun around with increasing speed.
Galum'nor was having a great time smashing left and right. It was like he was playing a whack a mole game during carnivals in his attacks. Nothing was left behind of her targets except for their squished remains. "Hahahaha! Come one! Come all!" he bellowed and continued on his smashing game.

To the center of the Yohan battle-line, the Rakshas were having a good time as they waited for the goblins to charge towards them before piercing them with their spears. Kicks and shoving was occurring all around their ranks as they push forward in repelling the goblins. A pile of goblin corpses was piled up in front of them and it was starting to become bigger and bigger as more goblins were added into it.
*****
To the left flank of the Yohan battle-line was secured as Xiao Chen and the two ladies drove the goblins away. Xiao Chen was having a great time as this was the first time that he really went all out and showed all of what he can do on the battlefield. He was like a monster unleashed upon the battlefield and unlucky for the goblins; they were the ones who the monster was unleashed upon.

Xiao Chen's breathing was a bit ragged after going all out. Staring down at the remaining goblins who were no cowering in fear because of his display of might. "Rah!" he shouted at them and they turned around and fled, disappearing into the thick fog.
The Yurakks, Adhalia and Draegh'ana stared in disbelief at the retreating goblins, who were scared by their chieftain easily. Disbelief and admiration were etched on the face of those who witnessed the event that was close to a miracle.
"Heh... I'm exhausted..." Xiao Chen muttered as he turned around only to see the face of his warriors who had disbelief etched on their faces. "What!?" he asked as he raised one of his eyebrows up. Unbeknownst to Xiao Chen, what he just did was something close to impossible. He himself was a one-man army and the show of power that he displayed was something that only a few of their ancestors could do.
"No... no... nothing, chief..." Adhalia stuttered, as it was her first time witnessing what the odd orc was capable of. 'That was just purely his physical prowess, what if magic or something related to magic was added to equation, he would totally wipe out an entire army on his own..." she thought as she stared at their chieftain who was slowly walking back towards them while dragging his weapon behind him which was making screeching noises as it went over rocks and the hard parts of the ground.
"Recover the wounded and send them to the rear. All those who are still capable of combat rearrange your ranks and push forward. We will be advancing forward to envelop our foes from our side to relieve our allies." Xiao Chen gave his orders upon reaching his warriors. The Yurakks were quick to follow his commands as they scoured the battlefield for their fallen comrades. Xiao Chen himself kept on watch to thwart any attacks from their foes that might come back for more. He had his enormous weapon by his side as he closed his eyes and listened to whatever sound his ears could pick up. Standing beside him were Draegh'ana and Adhalia who joined him in keeping an eye out for their foes.
Xiao Chen could hear the still ongoing battle at the center of their battle-line and the sound of Aquila beating its wings as it soared to the sky. Even the sound of the enormous eagle taking a dive to catch its next prey was heard by him. Standing behind Draegh'ana were Capricorn and the Great Bear. Capricorn was standing straight as always and keeping a proper posture while the Great Bear sat on the ground with its butt then licked its paws, which was covered in blood and bits of flesh. There was even an intestine dangling on its left paw.

*****
Back to the right flank of the Yohan battle-line, the trolls were pushing the goblin riders out of their battle-line. They stormed them with stabs, punches, kicks, heck they even bit the wolves if all their limbs were not available. Their sharp yet shorter tusk pierced through the skin of the wolves with ease.
Steam was oozing out of Galum'nor's body as he came barreling forward towards the ranks of their foes. He was throughly isolated from his allies as he kept charging forward with no care. His skin slowly turning crimson but he didn't notice any of the changes. He just felt overwhelming strength and the feeling of being invincible. Whacking left and right, Galum'nor continued on his path of slaughter while happily chuckling as the little goblins and their steed were no match for his newfound strength. He even crushed a wolf's head with just his grip and hurled its corpse away towards the charging goblins.
Just a few paces behind, the orc top was spinning around rapidly as she shredded all those that comes to close or those who were foolish enough to approach her. Little Grogus had long hidden himself behind the Yurakks as he was no fighter. He was a cook. The only things that he would slice or cut are ingredients and nothing else unless his life is threatened or at stake.
With the two orcs rampaging on the left flank, the number of goblins assaulting the Yurakks thinned out quickly, and they finally regained a stable hold of their line. Shoving any and every single foe in front of them before stabbing them right through the face, the Yurakks pushed forward, albeit slowly, as they were used to fighting defensively to exhaust their opponents before counter-attacking. Both flanks of the warriors of Yohan succeeded in overpowering their foes, and the only thing that remained was their center, which still held solid without giving an inch.
"Push forward! Drive them back! Show no mercy! Cut them down!" Xiao Chen rapidly fired off his commands which were repeated till it reach the other flank.
"Death to all who oppose the horde!"
"Death to all enemies of Yohan!"
"Death to all who oppose the will of the chief!"
"Death to them!"
"Death!"
"Death!"
"Death!"
The warriors of Yohan repeatedly chanted as they advance forward and drove their foes away. They slaughtered all those that stood in their path and the ditch that they dug was now filled with corpses of their fallen enemies, slayed by them or trampled to death by their own kin.
The goblins started fleeing away as the Yohan orcs and trolls advance forward and felling down all those that came within their weapon's reach.
Hidden by the thick fog, a goblin holding a sinister-looking staff, adorned with skulls of different creatures, watch as his kin fled away from battle. He was the Great Leader that the goblins were talking about. The goblin with dried skin like that of tree barks raised his staff up in the air and the skills that adorned his staff rattle. Muttering an incantation in a unique and unknown language, the Great Goblin leader was using the life of his fleeing kin, who were still inside his sphere of influence as a sacrifice as they had their bodies robbed of their life. Their bodies drying up quickly as life was sucked out of them forcefully.
A sinister aura permeated the air as a dark and gloomy magic circle emerged in front of the Great Goblin leader. He was summoning something or someone that didn't belong in this world.
At the side of the Yohan warriors, Draegh'ana glance at his chieftain and informed him of what she felt. "Chief, someone is summoning a creature behind the thick fog. A summoning magic is being used by someone or something!" she shouted as she felt the flow of magic, even with the cover of the thick fog.
"Halt!"
"Halt the advance!"
Xiao Chen bellowed as he didn't want his warriors to charge in towards an unknown enemy. He, too felt the strange flow of magic and the unique aura that it was emitting. The aura that he perceived was like what he felt from King Jaadul but was also different in some way.

My Best Friend is an Eldritch Horror
Good things come to those who wait. Damien Vale didn't, and now he's bound to an Eldritch creature from beyond the farthest reaches of the universe. It's unfathomable, utterly evil, and likes to be called Henry. To Damien, none of that mattered. He was going to learn magic, and he'd be damned if he let something as small as this set him back. When Damien started his first year at a mage college, he didn't expect it to be easy. However, when he's assigned to room with a strange girl that has magic that even Henry is wary of, Damien realizes things might not be so easy. He sets out to accomplish his life goal of becoming a powerful mage, all the while dealing with a murderous professor, an eldritch creature that's created a persona to act like a teenager, and a new roomate that's far more perceptive than he'd like. As Damien struggles to deal with the rammifications of the monster within him, a disturbing fact comes to life: Henry might not be the only eldritch creature on the mortal plane, and he's the only one that can stop them. NOTE: This story is progression fantasy with some very basic litRPG elements (such as a wristband that shows a character's stats). It is not a full on litRPG - it's a progression fantasy story with litRPG elements. The story will contain some romance, but it will not be explicit nor will it take over the story. It starts off slow, but will pick up speed quickly around chapter 26. Enjoy! My Best Friend is an Eldritch Horror was origonally started as a way to thank my patreons. I will be keeping the patreon updated 15 chapters in advance. Enjoy! Cover art by Skyedrun!

8 129Magitech Awakenings
In this world of Terrapia, myth states that Dragons are caretakers of the chaos wheel, a band of energy that encircles the world, penetrating through the very fabric of the dimension. They tame and convert it, not only to fuel their primal magic, but also to gentler forms that man and beast alike can tap. But now they have faded away, being sighted less and less the past couple millennia. With magic weakening, science has taken root and in many cases merged in a symbiosis with magic. Guppy Bright, a 17 year old young woman, is a technomancer apprentice living in the bustling city of Nolusburg trying to make ends meet. Apprenticed to the enigmatic and somewhat crazy Technomancer Friedrich BrassTuner, she participates in an experiment meant to tap a new rich source of energy. However something goes horribly wrong and a rip in the very fabric of reality opens in the workshop, sucking in her mentor and ejecting a dying white dragon. The dragon, after examining her, takes a gamble and entwines their souls, an act that causes the dragon, Barthurthalomalew Dresnarian Kratomanger Harrowhew Objuslorow, the 5th, aka Batty, to regress into a baby dragon, sealing much of his powers and memories in the process. This act also has profound effects on Guppy, her own magic is now crazily changed in ways no one, least of all her, understands. Guppy is suddenly plunged into a world of mystery, intrigue and politics, where everyone either wants to control, or eliminate her. Armed with little but her courage and unpredictable newfound magic how will she survive and protect herself and those she loves when everyone from techno radicals, magic purists, politicians and guttersnipes are out to get her. And those may be the least of her problems if Batty's fragmented memories are any indicator.
