Chapter 922, Cave in the Ground
They were undoubtedly attacked by the natives of the cave.
However, after all, the goblin soldiers have received formal training, and they have been mentally prepared.
At this time, one by one, they will not panic.
The shield in his hand quickly moved forward, and the gap in the equipment level could be said to be undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
That backward indigenous weapons simply could not pose much of a threat to them.
But the aboriginal offensive is clearly not over.
Realizing that the bone spear could not pose a threat to the goblin soldiers, a sound like a fan quickly crept into their ears in the darkness.
At that moment, the team leader who seemed to realize something hurriedly shouted......
"Beware of the slings, everyone!"
Almost as he spoke, fist-sized flying rocks were already smashing towards them.
The blunt blows of the stone bullets continued to hit the shields of the goblin soldiers in the front row, sending out a series of muffled sounds.
There is no doubt that for the goblins who live in the hilly areas, stone is the most indispensable resource.
So in the early stage, the simple to make and extremely low-cost slings are the best long-range weapons for goblins, even better than bows and arrows.
The blunt weapon attack of the stone bullet has a special target for armor and shields, and the threat level is undoubtedly much greater than that of the previous bone spear.
The continuous stone bullet attacks made the hand of the goblin soldier in the front row holding the shield slightly numb.
For a while, the momentum is also a bit subtle.
Originally, the goblin soldiers wanted to capture each other alive and escort them out without hurting the aborigines as much as possible.
However, looking at the current situation, it is obviously unlikely.
"Crossbowmen Attack Ready!"
The goblin crossbowmen who received the order unwound their crossbows and quickly loaded their bolts.
"Put!"
At the sound of an order, a whizzing crossbow arrow suddenly shot towards the hole in the ground.
If the opponent's slings can hit them, then they will definitely hit the opponent, which is a simple truth.
Almost at the same time as the bolts were fired, several high-pitched screams rang out from the depths of the cave.
The goblin soldiers did not continue the pursuit.
They came to co-opt the aborigines here, not to slaughter.
For them, it is enough to deter with a round of attacks and make the other side taste a little bitter.
Then, I heard the leader of the goblin squad shouting loudly......
"The aborigines inside listened, obediently gave up resistance......"
However, before the words were finished, the aborigines hiding in the cave had no intention of cooperating at all.
There was a commotion, after a few more stone bullets flew.
With a loud run, everyone!
The aborigines who had originally gathered in the vicinity suddenly scattered.
In the face of such a battle, the captain of the goblin team couldn't help but sigh, although the other side was his own clan, but he always had a feeling that he was facing a group of people.
In the face of the fleeing natives, the goblin team continued to advance unhurriedly with torches.
There was no rush to pursue, or rather, there was no need to pursue at all.
Although there is more than one entrance and exit to this cave, each of them is guarded by a large number of human soldiers, and these aborigines have nowhere to escape.
Sure enough, the aborigines who scattered and escaped from the exits of various caves were soon surrounded by human soldiers guarding outside.
It can be said that the matter here ended sooner than they expected.
At the same time, at the moment of escaping from the cave, the identity of the aborigines has also been completely confirmed, and it is indeed the goblins.
The indigenous goblins who can't find the direction of development, coupled with their own strength is so weak, their lives are obviously not easy.
In order to allow this group of indigenous goblins to better cooperate with them in their investigation, Gawain stepped forward as the goblin king at the right time and accepted his own group of people.
At the same time, they ordered enough food to be prepared and distributed to them.
Probably because of the identity of the same clan and the fact that they were provided with food.
When facing Gawain again, the native goblins had clearly let down their guard.
Let Gawain understand the situation quite smoothly.
It turned out that the carriage and belongings of the deceased were taken by them.
But it is not they who kill people.
This result did not surprise Gawain.
A group of indigenous goblins, with some slings and bone spears, want to kill so many human soldiers one after another without realizing it?
Isn't that a joke on him?
So, that's the point.
"So, who killed the man? Since this area is your place of residence, you should have some clue about this matter, right? ”
As Gao Wen asked this question, Guo Zhen, who was standing behind the tent, also pricked up his ears.
Of course, he's not eavesdropping right now.
According to Gao Wen's meaning, if Guo Zhen, who is a foreign race, stands in the camp tent, I am afraid that the timid indigenous goblins will not dare to speak.
So, in order to avoid some trouble, let him stand outside the tent for the time being and listen.
The native goblins who were asked this question also showed a look of horror on their faces.
"Yes, it's a strange bird, a big, ugly strange bird!"
As he spoke, the native goblin gestured with both hands.
Hearing this, Gao Wen and Guo Zhen frowned in unison.
"Strange birds?"
"Yes, that strange bird only appeared in the vicinity some time ago, and many of our people who went out to find food before died under its claws, and it will quickly kill its target, and then tear open the belly of its prey, and eat their internal organs......"
At this point, the native goblin's face had turned a little pale.
He was obviously terrified of the strange bird.
And Gao Wen and Guo Zhen, who obtained the corresponding information from the mouths of the indigenous goblins, kept checking the previous information in their minds.
Disemboweling and eating the internal organs, this alone is almost a direct reference to the identity of the murderer.
At the same time, if the murderer is a strange bird that can fly, there are no footprints of the murderer left at the scene of the crime, and the soldiers on patrol at night will evaporate from the world as soon as they turn their heads, which makes sense.
Thinking of this, Gao Wen calmed the restless native goblin a little, and after ordering someone to take him down to rest, Guo Zhen, who was standing behind the camp tent, slowly walked in.
"General Guo, if the target is a flying bird of prey, then I'm afraid we will have to quickly transfer a long-range force over."
And at the same time as the target was confirmed here, a blue-gray figure quickly swept over the construction team's camp hundreds of miles away.
The figure was far larger than the average bird, with blue-gray feathers, strong claws, and a long neck.
And look up at the long neck.
The next thing that caught my eye was an ugly bird's head.
On top of the bird's head, there is also a red and green crown of flesh, which looks a little disgusting.
There is no need to doubt that this is obviously the strange bird that the native goblin said he was talking about!
