Chapter Twenty-Four: Goblin Invasion
Simmons and the others would join the Adventurer's Guild was something that Lin Xiu expected, the only thing that Lin Xiu didn't expect was that the big guy named Charman was actually a barbarian, no wonder he would grow so tall.
In the afternoon, Lin Xiu did not contact the first adventure group again, he hid in his bedroom, sitting on the sofa, in front of him was a piece of parchment spread out, and a quill pen was in his hand.
While looking at the topographical map of Hammond in the system space, he drew on parchment, and he planned to build a fence around Hammond so that he would not be afraid of monster invasion.
It's just that his painting is really not good, and he has drawn it several times, although it is drawn according to the system interface, but as soon as the system interface is closed, he looks at the parchment on the table again, and can't help but exclaim: What is this?
He chose to use dots to represent the villagers' houses, so the whole parchment was full of dots, and the most important thing was that the dots were not the same size.
Bang bang bang!
"Is Lin Xiu there?" came the voice of the female leader outside the house.
Lin Xiu immediately opened the door, and when he saw the female leader, it was like seeing a savior: "You came just in time, how are you painting?"
"Painting?" In ancient times, there was no such thing as painting.
"It's about drawing what you see with this pen. Lin Xiu shook the quill in his hand and explained.
"That's not a problem, I just want to walk around. "The female leader has a powerful divine soul, and she has the ability to never forget, after Lin Xiu's explanation, she knows what she wants to do.
"Eh, wait a minute. Lin Xiu originally wanted to use the way I said your words to let the female kui draw the whole picture of the village, but before he finished speaking, the female kui grabbed his wrist and went out.
Having been in the same place for thousands of years, the female leader has long been fed up with staying in the same place, she wants to go out, she wants to wander the world.
Seeing that Lin Xiu was going out, Chris and Li Yan immediately followed.
Descending to the first floor, Barton was helping to wipe down the living room table.
"Xibeier is asleep again?" Lin Xiu asked Barton, Xibeier slept at least half of the time every day, this was obviously an abnormal thing, and it should be related to Xibeier's condition.
"Well, just fell asleep, did the village elder have something to do with Xibeier?" Barton stopped his movements and looked at Lin Xiu.
"Nothing, your health is not good, pay attention to rest. ”
Lin Xiu wanted to say a few words, but was dragged out of the door by the female leader.
Hammond was not big, and Lin Xiu led the female leader and her family to walk over.
Children are playing on the roadside, some women are tidying up the house, some are chatting in groups, and the old people are sitting on a small bench and waiting for the time to pass.
The villagers greeted Lin Xiu warmly when they saw him coming, and some villagers took out air-dried lean meat from home and gave it to Lin Xiu for Lin Xiu to take home to eat.
These meats were obtained by Mast and Luo Da when they were injured and went into the forest to hunt, and there was no money to buy food before, and the villagers themselves couldn't eat enough, so naturally it was impossible to take them out and give them to Lin Xiu.
But after the last incident of killing the jackals, basically every villager has a little spare money and is willing to take out their own food, of course, the most important thing is that under the leadership of Lin Xiu, the life of the villagers is getting better and better.
Being able to see the future made them grateful to Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu finally had a little bit of the feeling that although the village chief was a cadre, the size was a cadre.
He did not accept the lean meat sent by the villagers, but made a promise to them: soon everyone in the village will have jobs and a regular source of income.
The villagers didn't understand the meaning of Lin Xiu's words, but they understood that the village chief was going to do something big.
Most of the land near the sea to the west of Hammond is heavily desertified, and the north is a large blue forest, so food cannot be grown, but there is no such restriction in the south and east, as long as the tide is passed, and then the monsters around Hammond are cleared, and the fence is built, the villagers can grow food in the south and east of the village.
Not to mention taking 10,000 steps back, he still has a secret realm in the mine, and the batch that enters now is just the vanguard, as long as the time is ripe, even a 10-year-old child can support himself with his own hands.
Lin Xiu took the female leader to inspect his territory and prepared to go back.
Suddenly, a strange cry came from inside the forest, and then a short, green-skinned monster rushed out of the forest.
The monster had fangs at the corners of its mouth, a fat belly dragging in front of it, and its sly gaze looked around, and rushed towards the village with a wooden stick.
Following this green-skinned monster closely, more and more green-skinned monsters rushed out of the forest.
"Goblins, oh my God! Goblins are coming!"
"Everyone, run!"
The village was in chaos, and the frightened cries of women, the cries of children, and the urging of old men came and went.
Oops, how could it be chosen to appear at this time!
"Li Yan and Chris help me block them! Lin Xiu said sharply.
Although Li Yan and Chris had no weapons in their hands, they still rushed towards the goblin army without hesitation.
"What do you need me to do?" the female leader realized the seriousness of the matter and said immediately.
"Help me get the villagers to take refuge in my residence immediately, and use the trick you used against me last time, quick!" Lin Xiu said quickly.
There were at least hundreds of goblins rushing out of the forest, and such a large number of goblins could not be stopped for a few minutes even if Li Yan and Chris used their full strength, and these thatched houses could not stop the attack of the goblin army at all.
"Good. ”
I saw that the female leader's lips opened slightly, and a voice appeared in the minds of all the villagers who were so frightened by the goblins that they immediately shrank under the bed at home: Go to the village chief's house, the village chief will guard our safety.
"Everyone go to the village chief, only the village chief's stone house can stop these demons!"
With the shouting, the villagers who had just hid in the house immediately ran out and ran towards Lin Xiu's house.
"You can deal with a few goblins. Lin Xiu watched as the female leader finished saying this as quickly as possible.
"One or two?" The female leader was not sure, the power of mortals was only experienced when she lost her divine power, looking at the ferocious appearance of those goblins, she felt extremely small at this moment.
"You go back with me, and I'll give it to Chris first. Lins grabbed the little hand of the female leader and ran in the direction of his house.
Now he wants to release the villagers in the secret realm as soon as possible, although the Divine Turtle is still at the end of his life, Chris and Li Yan's physical strength is the same, once their physical strength is exhausted, these more than 30 first-order strength villagers will become the key to the victory or defeat of this battle.
Quickly Ben returned to his stone house, and the living room was crowded with confused, frightened villagers.
Perhaps the only thing that reassures them a little is that this is the most defensive building outside of a few system buildings.
As soon as Lin Xiu got home, he rushed towards the basement.
Open the Mine Realm.
"Isn't the time yet up?"
Standing on the platform above the plank road with his hands behind his back, Brooke, who acted as a miner, was puzzled, but still asked the villagers to stop what they were doing and transport the prepared baskets out.
After most of the day's hard work, they dug up a total of five baskets of bronze ore and one basket of iron ore, and if they were to trade in the Changfeng Fortress, they would definitely get a lot of money.
Although they occasionally dig up a walking corpse, but watching the movement of the walking corpse, everyone can't help but laugh, it is too weak, and they all walk faster than them.
The goods were transported out of the secret realm, and the joyful villagers appeared in the basement, and before these villagers had time to cheer for today's harvest, the passion in their hearts turned into horror and anger.
"Brooke, you guessed it right, those goblins have been driven out, at least a few hundred, and everyone will go with me to meet the enemy at once. ”
