Everyone who has fought against the Orc army was amazed at their fighting power.

Ordinary orcs cannot be compared at all, there is a huge difference in strength.

It was obvious that they were affected by the Pig-Head Emperor's skills. If the Lizardmen had fought them to the death, they would have been defeated miserably by now.

It was only because they focused on defense that no casualties were suffered.

The enemy hadn't breached the Lizardmen's elite defenses yet. However, with so many troops at hand, we couldn't act rashly. We absolutely had to prevent the enemy from further improving their capabilities.

Such results can only be achieved because everyone agrees with the leader's approach.

He ordered that any warriors who were wounded should be relieved immediately. If they died in battle, their bodies would be eaten, and the orcs would become stronger than before.

Actions must be taken carefully and accurately. We must hold the defense line to the last hurdle. Everyone understands this.

three days left.

After meeting up with reinforcements, they will be able to turn defense into offense.

Then we can use the terrain to defeat the Orc army one by one.

This would at least allow the defenders in key areas to be converted into offensive forces. The leader was convinced that the seemingly endless war would gradually improve.

With an optimistic mindset, he felt a little relieved.

That's when it happened.

Someone informed the leader that Gabil had returned...

Gabil was indignant.

(What a shame! The honorable Lizardmen have become so cowardly, hiding in their lairs, afraid to fight the Orc army...)

He was so angry that he almost lost his mind.

(It doesn't matter. I'm back. This way, we can rediscover our true Lizardmen ways and fight a glorious war.)

With this thought in mind, Gabil hurried to the leader.

"Thank you for your hard work, Gabil. Did you successfully obtain the assistance of the imps?"

"Yes! Although there are only 7,000 of them, I have already asked them to join us and stand by outside."

"Really? I hope having more people will increase our chances of winning."

"Then let's go out and fight!"

After reporting to the leader, Gabil immediately asked excitedly.

Now that he's back, we can't let the Orcs run amok. The leader is probably waiting for him, Gabil thought.

However, the leader's answer was beyond Gabil's expectations.

"Hmm? No, we don't need to send troops yet. While you're away, someone has come to form an alliance with us. The allied forces will be here in three days. We'll wait to meet them, sign the alliance, and hold a war meeting. Then, we'll launch a general attack."

Gabil was stunned. He had never expected the leader to say such a thing.

(What? The leader isn't waiting for me?)

Gabil was furious with dissatisfaction.

To deal with a mere Orc, they actually had to rely on reinforcements from unknown sources. Gobil would never allow such a thing to happen.

"Captain, with me in the fold, the orcs are nothing. Please allow me to march!"

He was furious and asked the leader to let him send troops.

However, the chief's response was cold.

"No, let's wait three days before discussing anything. You must be tired, so take a good rest today."

The chief coldly rejected Gabil's request.

Gabil was so angry that he lost his ability to think.

He couldn't accept anything that they didn't take him seriously and chose to rely on reinforcements.

"Chief—no, father! Stop it. I think you are getting old and confused and can't distinguish reality."

"What did you say?"

"Master Gabil, what do you mean by that?"

The leader looked at Gabil in confusion, and the captain of the guards, who was waiting nearby, questioned him.

Gabil looked at the two of them with sad eyes.

His heart was unusually calm.

I had always treated him as a father, so I tolerated his decision to become the leader and supported him behind the scenes.

Indeed, he has many respectable qualities, and his leadership as a leader is worthy of praise.

He did not hate his father, the lizardman leader.

In fact, it was just the opposite. He wanted his great father to recognize him, and this desire always drove Gabil.

He found it difficult to accept his father's disapproval. Therefore, he had to climb to a higher position to prove his strength. This would force his father, the leader, to approve of him.

That’s it simply.

But Gabil's self-esteem was too high and he was unwilling to face his true feelings.

Gabil nodded to himself and winked at his subordinates.

"Father, your time has ended. From today on, I will be the new leader of the Lizardmen!"

A booming voice echoed through the hall as he announced loudly.

As soon as the declaration was made, goblins filed into the hall.

Then, he raised his stone spear towards the leader and his guards.

The elite lizardmen warriors following him also followed, carefully blocking the passage.

"Gabil, what are you thinking!"

The leader seemed surprised, and his voice became excited.

It's rare to find a father like this.

Gabil felt a sense of superiority at his father's reaction.

"Father, you've worked hard these days. Leave the rest to me and enjoy a leisurely retirement."

Gabil ordered his subordinates to confiscate the weapons of the guards and the leader.

"Answer me, Gabil! What is your intention in doing this?"

"Father, using the natural maze to fight the orc army might be the best strategy. However, with so many passages, the warriors are too scattered. Wouldn't it be impossible to concentrate our forces to fight back? We would lose our advantage."

"What nonsense... After the meeting in three days, we will switch from defense to offense—"

"That's too slow! Lizardmen are powerful. They can only display their true abilities in the wetlands. The muddy soil maximizes our mobility and is a natural weapon for slowing down the enemy. We are the overlords of the wetlands. How can we cower in the shadows?"

After saying this, he grabbed the leader's weapon—the "gun" that symbolized the leader of the Lizardmen.

This gun is the magic weapon "Water Vortex Gun".

That was a magic spear worthy of the strongest warrior of the Lizardmen, and Gabil believed that he was the most suitable person to wield it.

He felt a surge of power flowing into his body, proving that the gun had recognized Gabil as its master.

He looked towards the leader and the captain of the guards, and raised his spear to show it.

"This gun has recognized me. The Lizardmen need no allies! I will prove it."

"Wait, Gabil. Stop messing around! At least wait until the allied forces arrive!"

"Leave the rest to me. You might be a bit bored before the war is over, so be patient!"

Gabil ignored the leader's call and said this right away.

"Lord Gabil—no, brother! Are you planning to betray us?"

"Sister, keep your private life and public life separate! Also, I'm not betraying you. I'm proving it to you... so you can witness a new era for the Lizardmen."

"That's ridiculous! Everyone thinks you're an excellent talent. Why did you choose this moment to prove yourself? Is this really what your brother meant?"

Gabil was displeased by the words of the captain of the guards - his own sister.

"Of course I really mean it! You're such an eyesore, someone come and kidnap her."

Gabil gave orders to his subordinates.

His sister's cries echoed in his ears, but he could no longer hear them.

Of course, he didn't mean to kill his sister. He just didn't want her to bother him.

He wants to defeat the enemy who is regarded as a hot potato by the leader.

This is what it takes to be a new hero, and it's what Gabil should do to reach the pinnacle of the lizardmen.

(If I kill those enemies, my father will approve of me and will definitely praise me and say that I make him proud.)

Gabil was filled with joy.

I want to finish this volume, but I find that there are too many watered-down words and it's too difficult to change them. There are 40,000 words of content to be revised, and I don't know where to start without thinking through the main plot...

Sorry, I failed to finish the revision in June. I tried my best.

Chapter 351: Children's Day is too busy

Some still followed their leader. Gobil's men led the goblins to suppress the enemy. Their attention was focused on the Orc army ahead, so they neglected to guard behind them. Basically, no one expected their own troops to attack them through the emergency exit.

After a while, the people below came to report that the situation was under control.

Gabil calmly sat down on the chair where the chief had sat.

It seems like I've been waiting for this moment——

"How does this chair feel to sit in?"

——Someone asked Gabil a question.

"Oh, it's you, Laplace-sama. I'm deeply grateful for your assistance this time. Thanks to your help, things are going much easier than I expected."

"That's great. I'm happy to be able to help you."

As if mocking others, the man wore an asymmetrical smiley mask.

His clothes were also vulgar, a clown costume with bright colors and exaggerated styles.

Although the man was dressed in a rather shabby manner, Gabil did not mind.

This is because the man who calls himself Laplace works under the person he admires and loves - Kalmud.

"My name is Laplace. I'm the vice-chairman of the 'Medium Clown Gang' of the Yorozuya. I'm working for Master Kalmud this time. I'm here to help Grandson Gabil."

When Gabil was leading the goblins back to the city, he met this man on the way, and he spoke to him leisurely.

He also rescued his subordinates who were imprisoned in the dungeon and reported the Lizardmen's every move to Gabil.

In addition, he helped Gabil unlock the seal of the Water Vortex Gun and helped him overthrow the leader. Everything was done by this man.

According to the original plan, Gabil intended to seize the opportunity to suppress the leader and other important officials while the main lizardmen entered the wetlands. However, his compatriots were fiercely defending the city and showed no intention of moving out. Just as Gabil was anxious about his miscalculation, Laplace offered to help him.

He also moved stealthily, transporting Gabil's subordinates and the goblin troops to the leader.

It was like magic, done silently, leading them to invade through the emergency escape.

Laplace played an important role in this rebellion.

"You're such a jerk, Mr. Gabil. I'm not as powerful as you say."

Laplace denied it with a smile, but in Gabil's eyes, he was a comrade who shared his loyalty to Kalmud.

"Wahahaha. Don't be so modest, Master Laplace. Ever since I pledged my loyalty to Master Kalmud, we've been partners in this struggle. I appreciate your guidance from now on."

Gabil responded in a good mood.

"Lord Gabil, we have captured the chiefs of each tribe."
