CH532 Foiled Ambush
***
The Gnoll Shaman ordered a full assault the moment the Ice Wall came down.
The gnolls obeyed, charging the Rock Monkeys in a frenzy. Though they had lost most of their element of surprise, they were not deterred.
The Rock Monkeys were still reeling from the sudden turn of events.
ROAAR!!!
The largest goril—no, Rock Monkey—roared, trying to seize back control of the chaos.
It ordered the weaker, younger, and elderly members of the tribe to retreat toward the gorge's rocky walls while it led the remaining combat-capable warriors to hold the line.
The leader of the Rock Monkeys—silently nicknamed Kong by Alex—charged forward to meet the gnolls.
Kong moved like a massive silverback. It raised both arms and smashed them down upon a group of gnolls, crushing their skulls like a sledgehammer against watermelons.
ROAR!
It followed with an intimidating bellow that caused the charging gnolls to freeze—if only for a moment.
That moment was enough.
