Chapter 757: Attack
Because Liu Xing and Yin En couldn't enter the tunnel, Liu Xing and Yin En could only choose to leave the warehouse first.
However, when Liu Xing and the others left the warehouse, they saw a young man who looked very similar to Shen Aotian waiting at the door of the warehouse.
"The two of them are Lord Liu Xing and Master Yin En of the Brave Squad, and below is Shen Dazhuang, the person in charge of a blacksmith shop." Shen Dazhuang said with a smile.
Liu Xing and Yin En subconsciously glanced at Shen Aotian, and Shen Aotian bowed his head slightly and said, "Shen Dazhuang is my eldest brother and the next head of our Shen family; Brother, just now I saw that you were still busy with that order, so I took the initiative to bring two adults from the Brave Squad in to check the situation in the warehouse. ”
Shen Dazhuang nodded, and continued to smile: "I see, that's really too troublesome for you, junior brother, but then again, I remember that your hotel should be about to open, junior brother, you should also go back to prepare, these two brave adults will be in charge of the reception." ”
Shen Aotian knew that Shen Dazhuang was giving himself an eviction order, so Shen Aotian could only give Liu Xing and Yin En an apologetic look, and then left a blacksmith shop directly.
Obviously, the relationship between Shen Aotian and his eldest brother is not very good.
However, what Liu Xing cares about the most is that the name Shen Dazhuang is really not cool enough compared with his little brother and his father and grandfather.
At this time, Shen Dazhuang leaned to the side and said in a respectful tone: "Two brave adults, if you have time now, can you go to my office to talk in detail, I know what the two brave adults are here for today." ”
Since Shen Dazhuang said so, Liu Xing and Yin En naturally nodded in agreement.
So, Shen Dazhuang took Liu Xing and Yin En to his office.
After serving tea to Liu Xing and Yin En, Shen Dazhuang said seriously: "I know that you brave adults are in a hurry to crusade against the evil dragon Bahamut, so this material theft incident has caused a lot of trouble to all brave adults, so here, as the person in charge of a blacksmith shop, I must say sorry to all brave adults." ”
After Liu Xing and Yin En exchanged a look, they decided to follow the previous plan and start singing one with a red face and the other with a white face.
Because of Liu Xing and Yin En's careers, of course, this villain can only be Yin En.
Therefore, Yin En's face changed, and he said a little viciously: "If a sentence of sorry is useful, then what do we need guards for?" You should know that the princess is still in the hands of the dragon, her life is like a candle in the wind, and she may die at any time, but at this time you tell that all the materials have been stolen, and they have been stolen by a group of unruly goblins, what should you do with us? And don't you think it's a bit of a coincidence? We had just arrived at the blacksmith village and those materials were stolen? ”
Shen Dazhuang had already guessed that Yin En would say this, so he still replied calmly: "Lord Yin En, it is normal for you to have doubts about this matter, after all, the timing of this theft incident is too coincidental, so coincidental that I began to suspect that there was a ghost in the blacksmith shop, but I believe that Lord Yin En and Lord Liu Xing can see that the tunnel in the warehouse is by no means something that can be dug up overnight, even if it is a race like goblins that are good at digging tunnels, So we have a blacksmith that now thinks that goblins are most likely trying to steal other materials, and they happen to see those precious materials, so they choose to take them with them. ”
Liu Xing nodded and said, "Boss Shen, what you said is right, there is indeed such a possibility now, but why would the goblins make a special trip to attack a blacksmith shop?" It stands to reason that there is a blacksmith shop that usually uses similar materials to other blacksmith shops in the blacksmith village, so why should these goblins go to the outskirts of the blacksmith village to steal from them? ”
Shen Dazhuang smiled, shook his head and said: "It seems that Lord Liu Xing, you don't know much about our blacksmith shop, you must know that even iron ore is divided into three, six, nine and so on, and there will be some subtle differences in iron ore produced in different places, and the easiest way to distinguish the strength of each blacksmith shop in our blacksmith village is to look at the distance between the location of this blacksmith shop and the center point of the blacksmith village, the farther away the blacksmith shop is, the worse the strength of the blacksmith shop, Therefore, those blacksmith shops near the city wall of the blacksmith village can only make some hoes and sickles and other agricultural tools, and the materials stored in their warehouses are naturally not much better, and as a blacksmith shop that occupies the center of the blacksmith village, the materials in our warehouse do not know how high they are compared to other blacksmith shops, so... ”
"So, what are those goblins stealing these materials for? I remember the goblins don't make iron weapons, do they? And those goblins can't trade either. Yin Eun interrupted suddenly.
According to the relevant settings just made up, the goblin clan on this continent is not classified into the orc race because of the low overall IQ, but is called the monster race along with slimes and others.
Therefore, as monsters, the goblin clan will only use sticks and stones as weapons, and the iron weapons that occasionally appear in the hands of goblins are basically the legacy left by some ill-prepared adventurers, or discarded weapons left over from a certain battlefield.
Therefore, in the "memory" of Liu Xing and Yin Eun, there is no precedent for the Goblin clan to make iron weapons.
When they saw this "memory", Liu Xing and Yin En's hearts were even more puzzled, because the difficulty of building those materials was directly proportional to the preciousness of those stolen materials, so it was impossible for those goblins to use those materials for their own use.
In addition, another big reason why the goblins are classified as monsters is that although the goblins are all over the continent, each of their tribes has their own territory and does not interact with each other, and the other races on the continent are in a hostile state, so it is impossible for those goblins to sell the materials.
So Liu Xing and Yin En once again felt that it was not the goblins who stole the materials.
At this time, Shen Dazhuang was still unhurried, and replied calmly: "That's right, it stands to reason that those goblins have no reason to steal, but I heard that those goblins seem to have been controlled by someone." ”
Liu Xing and Yin En both frowned and looked at Shen Dazhuang with puzzled expressions.
"We all know that the intelligence level of goblin creatures is very low, but the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, so occasionally there will be some intelligent goblins, these goblins will often become the leaders of their respective tribes, and these tribes will also make some abnormal behaviors, so I heard some time ago that the nearby goblin tribe also had some abnormalities, such as the goblin tribe began to try to learn from us humans to grow crops and raise livestock, So I suspect that that goblin tribe also appeared with a smart goblin. Shen Dazhuang said seriously.
Liu Xing thought for a moment and said, "Boss Shen, what do you mean, someone controlled the entire goblin tribe through that clever goblin, and then used this goblin tribe to steal those materials?" ”
Shen Dazhuang nodded, and said affirmatively: "At least I think so, because after I discovered the tunnel today, I took people to the wasteland outside the city to check the entrance and exit of the tunnel, and found that there were traces of various iron farming tools at the entrance and exit of the tunnel, which means that there must be someone behind those goblins who is supporting them to do so." ”
At this moment, Liu Xing and Yin En both frowned.
After a while, Liu Xing sighed and said, "I see, then Boss Shen can you tell us where the entrance to that tunnel is, we want to go over and see the situation now." ”
Shen Dazhuang nodded, pointed to the east and said, "Lord Liu Xing, you only need to go out from the east gate of the blacksmith village, and then turn right at the first intersection, and you can see a deserted farmland within two hundred meters, and the entrance of that tunnel is very conspicuous, you should be able to see it at a glance." ”
So, Liu Xing and Yin En got up to say goodbye, preparing to go to see the entrance of the tunnel, while Shen Dazhuang sent Liu Xing and the others to the door of a blacksmith shop.
After leaving the blacksmith village, Yin En suddenly said, "What do you think of Liu Xing?" ”
Liu Xing shook his head and replied, "The current situation is still a bit confusing, because it cannot be ruled out that there is a blacksmith shop guarding and stealing by himself, and if there are fanatical believers in Bahamut who control the goblin tribe, then it is indeed possible that those goblins stole the materials to delay the progress of our crusade against Bahamut." ”
"What else?" Yoon Eun continued to ask.
Liu Xing smiled, touched his chin and said, "Yin En, what you want to talk about is the internal situation of the Shen family, right?" Judging from the current situation, if it weren't for the two brothers Shen Aotian and Shen Dazhuang who deliberately acted for us to see, then we can be sure that the relationship between Shen Aotian and Shen Dazhuang is very bad, Shen Dazhuang obviously doesn't like Shen Aotian's younger brother, and I also suspect that the reason why Shen Aotian did not inherit his father's business and worked in a blacksmith shop, but went to work in an unrelated restaurant, is likely to be suppressed from within the family. ”
"The hero sees something the same, I thought Shen Aotian was a little strange at the beginning, he didn't do anything bad as the son of the head of the blacksmith village, he had to be a cook, and his family didn't stop him, which was obviously a bit abnormal; But then again, if Shen Aotian is acting with Shen Dazhuang, then this matter is even more interesting. Yoon gave a weird smile.
Soon Liu Xing and Yin En came to the wasteland, and saw the entrance to the tunnel at a glance.
After all, this wasteland was originally a farmland, so the surrounding area was high and the middle was low, so Liu Xing and the two saw the big hole in the center of the wasteland at a glance.
Liu Xing and Yin En came to the entrance of the tunnel, and found that there were indeed many traces of hoes and shovels at the entrance of the tunnel, and it seemed that these goblins did come with tools.
"It seems that Shen Dazhuang is right, these goblins are prepared, it seems that those goblins may indeed have been co-opted." Yin En said seriously.
Liu Xing nodded, and just when he wanted to speak, he was preempted by KP Husky: "Now please ask the two players to listen to and decide." ”
Listen to the verdict?
Someone around?
Liu Xing, 39/60, success.
Yoon, 66/75, success.
The moment the verdict came out, Liu Xing heard a sound of gentle footsteps around him.
"Because both players were successful in their listening decisions, the goblin's sneak attack failed." KP Husky said with a smile.
Sneak attack?!
Liu Xing and Yin En immediately got up and checked the situation around them.
Then, Liu Xing and Yin En saw three goblins with wooden sticks rushing out of a bush behind them.
Yin En immediately took out his Fang Tian painting halberd from the void and stood decisively in front of Liu Xing.
However, although Liu Xing was assigned to the position of pastor, this could not stop Liu Xing from having a heart to play melee combat, after all, Liu Xing originally had a melee skill, and in this kind of melee encounter, Liu Xing did not have the time and space to be a nurse with peace of mind.
The most important thing is that these three goblins look too weak, because they are all less than a meter high, and the wooden stick in their hands is the thickness of a baby's fist, Liu Xing suspects that Yin En is standing there and fighting these goblins, and these goblins have no way to break Yin En's defense, after all, the leather armor on Yin En's body is still quite thick.
In Liu Xing's opinion, these goblins are like a group of junior high school students who have no combat effectiveness at all.
But then again, Liu Xing suddenly thought that the combat mechanism of Dragon Quest games is basically turn-based, which is very similar to the combat mechanism of Cthulhu Run games.
Just when Liu Xing was about to use the chaotic cloak staff technique, he saw Yin En take a step forward directly, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand swung forward fiercely, and the three sprinting goblins directly hit the blade because they couldn't dodge.
Then, there is no then.
Looking at the three goblins that were split in two, Liu Xing suddenly felt that he wanted to vomit.
Because Liu Xing had been exposed to anatomy courses in college, in the previous mods, Liu Xing had no adverse reactions when he saw the terrifying corpse, but the impact of live broadcasts like this finally made Liu Xing a little unbearable.
What's more, these goblins are also humanoids.
Liu Xing avoided his gaze and said with some complaints: "Yin En, you are too ruthless to do this."
"I'm on, it's been a second, there's nothing to say." Yin En said in a calm tone.
However, when Liu Xing saw that Yin En's face was a little pale, he knew that Yin En's heart was not as calm as his tone at this time.
Liu Xing thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back quickly, so as not to have trouble with goblins coming to us." "Fupin Chinese
