CHAPTER 40

More than twenty minutes after they entered the forest, the knights were still chatting with the horses, the horses could not stop their restlessness no matter what, and they also knew that danger was coming, but the forest was all around, and it was quiet, not to mention that the shadow of a person could not even hear the croaking of frogs, so they could not let people ride horses to find rescue because of the danger in their premonitions.

With such information, I asked the nearby viscount for help, and without the basic information of the monster, I am afraid that others will just leave it alone at the first time. If, even if that magician came out alive and saw that the people were gone, how could he not think of a way to sue them?

In order to prevent an emergency, the two knights released the reins of their mounts, apparently ready to flee if the situation exceeded the forecast.

The escape did not take place after all, and when they noticed with a whining sound that could be heard in the air, their bodies had been nailed to the ground by more than a dozen one-meter-long wooden spears, and even the horses with which they had untied their reins had died in the raid.

After confirming that there were no more humans around, more than thirty shirtless and majestic tower-like orcs walked out of the black and oppressive forest, and the green orcs tested their harvest with a satisfied look, and at the signal of a tribal leader in vine armor, six orcs were divided to lead the horses and dead humans to some safety, and they followed the route of Lillard's advance.

Lillard stared at the blackbirds above him, thinking about how he could knock them down, and finally shook his head weakly. Unless he was now transformed into a human being, or he could now ignore these people, jump into a tree and shoot an arrow down at the right distance, either way, it would be too shocking, so when he told the others, it only caused a burst of laughter.

These adventurers don't think that birds have the ability to spy on others. Twenty meters away to shoot a bird, it is even more nonsense, and there is no hunter here who specializes in archery, and it is impossible to shoot it down, so in the end, he continues to follow the marker all the way to find the whereabouts of the magician.

Richard's path was similar to that of Lillard, after all, they had told the others the relevant information when they returned to the guild, so as long as they found out the previous goblin crypt that the adventurers had explored, then the adventurers could easily follow the marked route to the front line. The password is also left to make it easier for one's own people to find it, maybe you run into a monster on the way there, and then it is possible to go somewhere else.

As the smell of goblins grew stronger in the air, Lillard could be sure that the two sides must have had an encounter. Shortly after moving on, he saw the remains of goblins on the ground. More than twenty goblins were lying on the ground staggered, long without the breath of life, and all the way forward, the heads and limbs of these goblins were scattered around. The frightened look in the goblin's eyes probably didn't expect so many humans to suddenly appear here.

However, there was no sign of the orcs, not even the wolves that night.

The damp rotten leaves leave traces of people running, and it is very likely that they will follow the escaped wolves. Thinking about it this way, it is also somewhat logical.

Following the trails left behind, everyone chased for more than twenty minutes before they found a goblin lair in the forest, which, according to Rossa's memory, was one of the goblin nests that had been on a mission. After getting closer, he found the entrance to the goblin lair under the high earth bag of these two people.

The human footprints disappeared as they poured into the goblin lair.

Almost with your toes, you know that what is going on with this group of people is not going to be too good. Otherwise, we would have met on the way home.

So do you want to go down or not? Lillard was a little undecided. The combat power of those orcs is not weak, since they can completely destroy those knights, I am afraid that if these people go down, I am afraid they will only deliver food. What's even more suspicious is that in addition to the smell of goblins and wolves and the smell of humans, unlike their faint smell floating in the air, it makes Lillard feel that this is not the main lair of the orcs.

However, the knight who led the way was obviously not prepared to listen to Lillard's analysis, and everyone's nose was not so sharp, they only knew that they could know what was going on by following the person in front of them, and they didn't pay much attention to someone who was thinking.

"It's kind of weird," Rosa muttered as she walked around the goblin's lair, standing beside Leillard at the moment.

"That's how I feel, did you notice anything?" Lillard is still looking forward to Rossa, after all, she is a master of hunting goblins all year round, and she should have a more rational analysis.

"I didn't see the footprints of the orcs, I could barely see the footprints of the wolves. However, according to previous estimates, there were only fifty or sixty goblins in this lair, and it was impossible for these people to be wiped out if they entered. ”

Rosa responded with the sound of the armor urn, at this time she held the goblin corpse she had just acquired in her hand, and the empty abdominal cavity contained a few fresh goblin viscera, stirring it in it with a knife, skillfully smearing the blood-mixed liver on the armor at the end of the year, and before Laiard could react, Leya and the others who followed were also drenched with these disgusting mixtures.

"Goblins have very smart noses, especially for women and humans. Apply these, at least to make them a little more stable. But those people are in trouble," Rosa pointed to the adventurers who had gone with her, who had already disappeared into the darkness.

Karina had a disgusted expression on her face, and stayed away from these people, she didn't believe that this liquid could be of any use, not to mention that the other party was not only goblins, but also orcs, could it be that the orcs didn't pay attention when they smelled this smell? Without waiting for Rosa to continue, she entered the cave with her team.

"It stinks.... I knew I was coming in tattered clothes. I.... My new priest's robe," Emily said, looking at her clothes with a dejected expression. Leah's face was also pale with fright, and Lula beside her looked very weird after applying the liquid wholeheartedly, white clothes, mixed with black sludge and dark red blood.

"Alright, let's go, Rosa you take the lead, I'll guard the back of the team, I always feel like something is staring at us, everyone should be careful" Leillard comforted Emily, and everyone walked in at the end of the paladin's line.

The cave is the dwelling of the goblins, and it is not very spacious, but it is often entered by some cattle and sheep or humans, so the cave is a little as tall as a human, but the width is not so satisfying, and it can only tolerate two people walking side by side. Such a cave, if the orcs were to be stationed, how difficult it would be to move forward.

In the first half, there is basically no difference from the crypt that Lillard encountered before, because the terrain is relatively high, so the ground under his feet is still quite dry, and after walking for dozens of meters, he can clearly feel that the cave is extending towards the ground, and the soil under his feet begins to appear waterlogged from slippery.

Stepping on the sewage, everyone is faced with a choice, there are four forks in the road that point to different places, but after the knight recognizes it, he still finds the mark left by his teammates, and the adventurers and paladins move forward. However, Lillard and the others stopped here.

Rosa and Leillard, who were more familiar with the practice, walked resolutely towards the other fork in the road.

Leillard leaned on his nose, and Rosa saw through the torches the gap in the fork that had been bumped by the goblin's weapon.

In fact, when he got here, Lillard didn't really want to go down, his heart suddenly beat and the tingling in his back became stronger, this was the physiological warning of the dragon before the danger came, and the air introduced by the vent was filled with the smell of creatures that did not belong here, and he could feel that there was a group of unknown creatures, around the cave. The creatures also seem to be following them into the cavern. They still smell of human blood.

Lillard stopped his movements.

"You guys wait here first, don't move," Lillard stopped Rosa and the others who were about to continue walking, and they looked at Lillard with a blank expression, not knowing why they suddenly stopped.

"I'll go outside and see, what's on us" Lillard smiled reluctantly, "Wait for me in three minutes, and I'll know the result in three minutes"

With that, Lillard slammed towards the exit.
