The noses of the gnolls are very sensitive, which can be seen from their size, and Alan can not believe in their strength, but he definitely believes in the nose of Hruff.

And there aren't many things that can be related to brimstone, but none of them are easy to mess with.

"Get those guys out!"

I have to say that Eren is a little nervous now, and he is also a little excited, I don't know if these people can kill a demon, or a fire elemental.

At Alan's order, everyone immediately rushed to the cave and began to search, and finally, with the cooperation of the old hunter and Herut, they found a huge rock that could be moved.

The commonly used concealment technique has been seen by Alan in Hemmit's hands before, so he doesn't think it's new.

Under the alert of the half-elves, Cobb and several strong men moved the boulder out of the way, and a stench rushed towards them, while a dozen goblins rushed out wielding various weapons.

Unfortunately, before they could see the situation outside, they were shot down by the arrows of the half-elves, and the few remaining moments were stunned on the spot, and then their heads were cut off by the rune knights who were waiting for the opportunity next to them.

The entrance to the cave wasn't too big for a strong man like Cobb, but the space inside was extremely spacious, reminding Alan of the place where the old hunter had taken them before.

The difference is that there is no light gap in this cave of the goblin, but a row of torches is inserted in the stone wall, which extends to the innermost part of the cave.

Khruf beckoned a few gnolls and rushed into the cave first.

Cobb bent over and got in, and Alan and the others followed with their noses pinched.

The cave is littered with smooth stone platforms and thick tree trunks that have been flattened, as well as lattice-like areas made of branches, rags, and animal skins.

The environment in the cave is slightly better than outside, and it is cleaner, at least there are no urine stains and feces everywhere, but this is also relative, otherwise Alan and the others would not have to pinch their noses.

The imaginary demons and fire elementals did not appear, and there were no other goods in the cave except for the few goblins that rushed out just now.

In the innermost center of the cave, there is a large and flat stone platform, on which is placed a stone statue nearly two meters high, and the appearance of the stone statue is similar to that of a goblin, holding a scepter-like stone pillar in its hand, and its expression is solemn.

Seeing this thing, Alan couldn't help but be overjoyed, pointed and asked, "Khruf, is that the Ancestral God Statue?"

The gnoll nodded, then shook his head again, "My lord, I don't know about this ...... either."

In fact, Hruff can't be blamed for this, the main reason is that the system of believing in ancestors is too chaotic, not to mention that he is not a goblin, even if he is of the same race, he doesn't know which ancestor any tribe believes in.

Because each forest tribe is basically similar to a monarchy, all of them are chiefs or shamans, and some will carve stone statues according to their own image in order to reflect their own authority, as the object of worship of the clansmen.

And such a stone statue can hardly be called an ancestral god statue, unless the tribe has been passed down for a hundred years under the will of the chief, or the leader of the tribe is himself a powerful and powerful man.

According to the lines on this stone statue, it looks like it is newly carved, and even the lower body is not completely finished, so it is difficult to determine whether it is the image of the goblin ancestor or the appearance of the leader of this tribe.

But whether it's or not, you have to give it a try, and you can't do it in vain.

Alan called Linda and asked her to put her hand on the stone statue and wait for the result.

As a result, nothing happened.

"I remember the last time you held the stone statue of the Wildclaw Tribe, you had a wound on your hand, maybe it took your blood to activate?"

"Or is it some kind of blood to recognize the Lord?" Seeing everyone's puzzled faces, Alan added.

In the face of Allen's inquiry, everyone shook their heads in unison, indicating that they had never heard what Allen said.

However, Linda still let the crescent moon make a small cut on her finger before touching the goblin statue.

There was still no response.

At this moment, in the other direction of the cave, four goblins with pickaxes suddenly ran out in a panic.

When they saw the corpses of their companions on the ground and the people in front of them, they were stunned for a moment, and immediately turned around and ran back.

"Keep your mouth alive!"

However, Allen's voice was visibly slow, and the four goblins fell to the ground in an instant.

Khruf reacted the fastest, and when he saw the shadow of the goblin, he threw the axe in his hand one after another, and a blood flower instantly bloomed on the two goblins and fell to the ground, and the old hunter and Olya next to him reacted quickly enough to shoot the remaining two goblins who were still running on the ground.

Alan shook his head, sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing for his subordinates to be too sharp.

After seeing the goblins fall to the ground, Hruff ran up and put away his two axes.

He looked sideways into the dead end, and found that there was a hole in it.

"My lord, come and see this way!"

Hearing his shout, everyone hurried over and looked in the direction Khruf was pointing.

I saw that there was a slope in front of me that could continue to move forward, and there were steps on the slope, and Hruff stretched his neck and forgot to forget it, and there was no end in sight for a while.

He leaned against the slope and sniffed again, but the stench interfered with his sense of smell, so that it was a while before Khruf told Alan with certainty that the smell of sulfur came from below.

"I don't think it's necessary to go in. ”

Crescent Moon looked at everyone's eagerness to try and suddenly spoke, but before she could finish her words, Cobb rushed down with a hammer.

Alan spread his hands, chose a few people to guard outside, told them to search the inside of the cave, and then led the others down the steps.

The slope is long, curved and coiled and winds downward.

The further down you go, the more you feel that it doesn't look like a cave at all, there are more and more steps, and the stone walls on both sides are carved with various decorations.

The path is more like an enlarged version of the basement hallway, similar to the kind where cultists perform rituals.

"Boss, it's a little weird down here. ”

Cobb looked at the patterns of teeth and claws on the wall, and suddenly said.

"You know it's scary and you're running so fast?"

Alan glanced at him and said nothing more.

He knew that this guy had been at odds with Crescent, so as soon as she spoke, Cobb rushed down.

It is rumored that the deep forest is a paradise for all kinds of ruins, and since he found the strange Allen, he didn't plan to let it go, and he originally wanted to go down to see what it was, so he didn't blame Cobb.

Moreover, the leader of this goblin tribe and another bear goblin have not yet been found, so they must be under this cave.

"Be careful, boss!"

Cobb roared angrily in front of Allen, and everyone immediately entered the battle posture vigilantly, and saw two tall bear goblins staring at everyone by the light of the fire.
