Violent oscillating spatial ripples instantly spread out, invisible waves sweeping past the Hogheads.
Row after row of Hoghead monsters were shredded, their severed limbs and broken bodies scattered everywhere.
"Impossible..."
The Pig-Headed General watched blankly as his companions continued to die.
However, before he could mount a defense, his body was like tofu cut by fine wires, instantly turning into countless chunks of meat scattered on the ground.
The rescued Lizardmen were all stunned like wooden chickens, looking around in disbelief.
"What's going on? What just happened?"
"I don't know..."
"It seemed like some kind of magic."
"Who saved us!?"
Everyone looked around in a daze, only to see Souei slowly walking out from the depths of the passage.
"Father!"
The Personal Guard Captain immediately stepped forward to help the Old Clan Chief up from the ground.
"It's the messenger from that day."
The Old Clan Chief said in surprise, "How did you come back?"
Souei interrupted their reminiscing and said coldly, "Lord Rimuru has arrived at the battlefield. The rest is up to you."
After tossing a recovery potion to the Old Clan Chief and leaving a few subordinates behind, Souei took the remaining people and hurried toward the battlefield... on the battlefield.
"Clang!"
Gabiru was sent flying by an axe strike from a Pig-Headed General; his body skidded across the ground for several meters, and he spat out a mouthful of clotted blood.
"Damn it, how can there be such a powerful monster!!"
Gabiru cursed through gritted teeth.
"Hahaha, ant, die!"
The Pig-Headed General laughed hideously, raising his massive axe, prepared to hack the nuisance before him into mincemeat.
However, just as the axe blade was about to fall, a small figure suddenly darted out from Gabiru's shadow.
A spiked club slammed hard against the axe blade.
"Boom!!"
Caught off guard, the Pig-Headed General had his strike blocked.
"Hmm? Someone actually dares to block my attack."
The Pig-Headed General glared at the newcomer in a fit of rage.
A short, thin fellow stood in front of Gabiru, holding a spiked club, staring at him with a gloomy gaze.
"Who are you?"
The Pig-Headed General asked with a frown.
"Wolf Rider Captain, Gobta!"
"A Goblin?"
"No, no, no. It's a Trouble Goblin."
After being named, the Goblins evolved into different branches; there were Trouble Goblins like little brother Gobta, and others like the village chief who were Hardened Goblins.
The females all evolved into Goblinas, and a small number evolved into Humanoid Ogre Races suitable for combat, just like Ogres.
The appearance of the Humanoid Ogre Race is already very close to that of the Ogres, both having two small demon-like horns on their heads.
In the original work, the Red Flame Squad commanded by Benimaru was composed of the Humanoid Ogre Race.
Because they had to hurry, Rimuru only brought the Wolf Riders this time.
"Swish swish swish!"
Hundreds of Trouble Goblins and members of the Ranga Clan suddenly leapt out from Gobta's shadow.
"Mere Goblins..."
"Awooo~!"
The Pig-Headed General was about to spout more trash talk when Ranga fired a Black Lightning from the single horn on his forehead, instantly blasting the Pig-Headed General into charcoal.
The scales of victory shifted once more.
Benimaru and Shiro led a hundred Ogres into the battlefield.
With Crimson Lotus Hellfire swirling around him, Benimaru swung his long blade down fiercely.
"Boom boom boom!!"
A blast of fire carrying searing temperatures.
Red flames swept out, turning everything in their path into scorched earth; the battlefield was torn in half by Benimaru's attack.
Shiro's body was enveloped in Demonic Aura, and her black Battle Qi manifested into a physical form.
An illusion of a black leopard emerged behind Shiro.
Its sharp claws glinted with a cold light, and its figure was as swift as the wind.
Shiro lunged into the enemy ranks with a single stride, her claws swinging and bringing down a rain of blood.
A hundred other Ogres followed closely behind, their weapons swinging relentlessly and unstoppably.
Gabiru was somewhat stunned to see this scene.
"You are..."
Gobta struck a cool pose, "Reinforcements!"
"Now is not the time to be dazed."
Ranga gave a reminder, then his body began to grow larger, his Demonic Aura soaring into the sky.
"Awoooo—!!"
A high-pitched wolf howl sounded, as if sending out some kind of signal.
A vast expanse of black clouds appeared in the sky, and a powerful sense of pressure enveloped the entire field.
Ranga's utilization of his skills could be considered quite excellent.
By firing "Black Lightning" into a space where pressure differences were rapidly created, he could manipulate the flow of the lightning to fill any given space.
Following that, his EX skill "Multi-Manipulation" worked alongside the intense updrafts and downdrafts to form a Wind Vortex.
As a result, a Tornado was ultimately produced.
(In short, it's a complex set of maneuvers; study physics well, you might use it if you transmigrate later...)
Several tornadoes carrying Black Lightning rampaged across the battlefield.
Under the blowing of the Wind of Death, a large number of the Hoghead Army were sucked in and ground to pieces.
Gobta also led the Wolf Riders at this moment, charging toward the surrounding Hoghead Army.
Gabiru also snapped back to his senses.
The horn for a counterattack sounded, and the Lizardmen warriors roared as they charged toward the Hoghead Army.
Rimuru flew in the sky, clicking his tongue at the scene below.
The battlefield that had been packed tight instantly became open.
Hidden in the shadows, Mare silently received the baptism of experience points, feeling delighted... somewhere in the forest.
Gelmud held a crystal ball in his hand, which was displaying the current scene on the battlefield.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
"Where on earth did these guys come from!"
Gelmud quickly cast a flight spell on himself and rushed toward the wetlands at high speed.
Thinking that if he messed this up, that lord would definitely not show him mercy, his heart was filled with fear... After Rimuru devoured the fire spirit Ifrit, he obtained the unique skill "Deviant," whose effects are Unify and Separation.
In other words, through "Separation," he could isolate needed energy, skill effects, objects, and so on from their original state.
"Unify" could combine different types of abilities, energy, and the like together.
When "Black Lightning" and "Heat Manipulation" were synthesized, they became Rimuru's frequently used skill, "Black Flame."
"Deviant" paired with the "Great Sage" was simply a match made in heaven, allowing various skills to be used with ease.
Besides unique skills, Rimuru also obtained "Heat Manipulation," "Clone," "Multi-Layer Barrier," "Molecular Manipulation"... in short, Rimuru's skills are now so numerous they can't fit into a single chapter.
