Goblins are smaller, humanoid creatures.

In fact, they seem to have some sort of kinship to the goblins' green skins.

Goblins, however, possess a complete social system - until the humans migrated to the Eastern Plains.

It's just that as one of the natives of the Eastern Plains, they didn't welcome humans at first, and even joined the alliance of the aborigines against humans for a time. However, that kind of sparse and scattered army was naturally easily defeated by the army that had been tempered by countless wars by humans.

After that, most of the goblins also became prisoners of the human ranks, and it was not until the advent of the Great Development Era that a small number of these slaves were freed and became part of the human race under a series of policies formulated by the Council of Terran Kings to encourage the development of the wilderness.

It was around that time that the humans removed the goblins from the list of targets for crusade, so that they no longer had to be in the company of the scum goblins with only five combat power in the crusade rating......

Shasansan is also a descendant of goblins who obtained citizenship during the Great Development Era, and compared to other civilian-level goblins, it has obviously lived a more privileged life as a traveling merchant and dumping all kinds of local products, which can be seen from its fat body.

Originally, this time it was the same as usual, but before the spring harvest began, some spices from the border were transported from Yonia County to Horadur, and then sold to merchants from other countries to earn a lot of gold coins. But I didn't expect an accident just to arrive in Horadur.

Its caravan was attacked by a small troop of gnoll cavalry, and its hired mercenaries were either caught off guard by the gnoll cavalry with spears or had their throats cut by the huge wolves without resistance.

Although it escaped by hiding in a specially made mezzanine box at first, it was unexpectedly discovered.

The root of the Tree of the World (goblin slang, equivalent to 'Oh my!') Or, 'Oh my God!' ’）！ Gnolls are nothing like human bandits. Ordinary robbers know how to fish without exhaustion, and they can leave unharmed by paying a sum of gold coins or a portion of the goods, but the Gnolls, who are like wild beasts, care more about food and meat than gold coins...... If the other party finds out, he will definitely confess his more than 200 catties here.

As soon as he thought of this, Shasang Sang felt sad, and he knew that he would stay at home and wait until summer to run a business.

"Oh no, why would this kind of thing happen to Sasangsan," the fat goblin howled, and the layers of fat on his body trembled with his movements: "Mother of Heaven, Sasansang is going to die here, and he will come to accompany you soon!" ”

Sivi was very uncomfortable by the other party's piercing howl, he frowned, and said angrily: "The goblin over there, if you don't want to really die here, then stop quickly." ”

Goblins originally had their own language, but after years of assimilation by the Terrans, almost all goblins could understand Humen, and many goblins with very common civilians were also proficient in this common language of the Terrans.

Sasang is also a Chinese expert, but because of the previous fright, he has become stammering, and even his tone has begun to move closer to the traditional goblin language.

But at this moment, when it heard Xiwei's words, it first reflexively paused and cried, for fear that the other party would not go well and directly split itself. Then it felt a little strange - when did the gnolls speak such standard Hughman? —and then he looked up at Sivi with a shudder.

Seeing that Shasang Sang stopped crying so obediently, and Xiwei, who was relieved from the noise pollution, nodded with satisfaction: It seems that we still have a bit of a deterrent. …,

"Goblins, what's going on here?"

Having realized that the ones in front of him were not those gnolls who ate people and did not spit out bones, Shasansan breathed a sigh of relief and heard Sivi ask, so he immediately stammered and explained: "That, that, Master Mage. I... The villain's name is Sasansan Taugtaug, and he is a traveling merchant in Noaig. The Chamber of Commerce I work for is Roman Wind Chimes, and the range of goods I deal in is ......"

"Getting to the point!" When Xiwei heard that the other party actually began to introduce the goods of his chamber of commerce, he couldn't help but be angry and funny, did this fat goblin still want to sell these messy things to a mage.

His eyes widened, and he simply interrupted Sha Sangsan's words and said sharply.

"The villain's caravan has been attacked by the gnolls!" Hearing the unidentified mage in front of him in his displeased tone, Sha Sangsan's fat body trembled, and he hurriedly abbreviated the tirade that had just been typed into a sentence.

"Gnolls? That's impossible. Old John raised his eyebrows, looking incredulous, and said categorically, "This is near Horadur, the capital of Noaig...... You say that the group of guys who can only fight the autumn wind on the border will come here to rob? Are you watching as the Empire's Frontier Guards? This is even more ridiculous than the orcs making an alliance contract with humans from today! ”

"But that's the truth!" Shasangsan didn't dare to talk back to Sivi in the mage's disguise, but this did not affect him from arguing with old John, who was dressed in worthless clothes: "Shasangsan saw those vulgar fellows with his own eyes, and they attacked Shasangsan's caravan on a huge wild wolf!" ”

Instead of getting involved in the argument between the two, Sivi opened the academy system and went straight to the prestige page.

In his mind, if the goblins didn't lie that there were really jackals, then the taskbar would definitely give the corresponding tasks. Unfortunately, only the two remaining tasks were selected in the three taskbars on the reputation page, and one dialog was blank.

Could it be that the goblin is telling a lie, and there are no gnolls at all? Sivi was skeptical for a moment, and then as if he remembered something, he flipped to the first page, the page where the task in progress was recorded.

At the moment, there are still only two tasks on it, [Beginning to Take Shape] and [The Girl's Homecoming], but there is a small branch under the [The Girl's Homecoming] task.

[Gnolls in Noaig: Somehow evaded the Border Guards and infiltrated the gnolls in Noaig. Investigate the purpose of their trip, or defeat at least half of the gnolls. 】

Sure enough, this mission was counted as a mission to send Theo to Horadul. From this point of view, it was not an accident that Tio and her guards were surrounded by the group of gnolls, but by design.

Regardless, the goblin's words seem to be true. The reason why there is not a single corpse here is probably because they are afraid that someone will see any flaws in their cause of death, so they simply dragged away the traces of the corpses, and the jackal's mount is a wolf, so the footprints will naturally not reveal anything.

The reason why this goblin was able to escape was also because the smell of spices masked its own taste, so it was not discovered by those people with a keen sense of smell.

After sorting out his thoughts, Sivi couldn't help but sigh.

“…… I always feel like I've been involved in something very troublesome. ”
