Marlin remembered that the little squirrel's name was Milani, as its owner called it, and as a spirit, it was very important that it could understand human speech, because usually a spirit that could not understand human speech was already dead.

Marlin took out a small branch, and a small acorn was formed on the branch, and the fruit that Marlin spawned with psionic energy was very tempting for miscellaneous ** monsters.

Milani was also very hungry, so she began to nibble on the acorn while holding it, and then sat down on Marin's shoulder contentedly.

It seems that in the previous winter, this little thing did not have a very good time in the wild,

"Having said that, it's the first time I've seen such an obedient animal spirit, and my big dog only listens to my father, not even us." Faye looked at the squirrel on Marin's shoulder, walked over cautiously, and reached out to touch the squirrel.

Marin noticed Milani's vigilance and fear, and reached out and nodded at its little head: "Milani, this is Faye, if you give it a hug, this acorn will be yours." ”

Milani's little face showed a surprised expression very humanly, and it patted its little belly, then hugged the acorn, and then jumped directly into Faye's hand.

"Oh my god, I've never seen a spirit so obedient." Cross also walked over, she also had an acorn in her hand, the same psionic energy to breed, Milani sniffed her fruit, pouted, didn't ask for it, but still rubbed the back of Cross's hand with her head.

"Someone has definitely raised it before, and then again, Marlin, do you know its owner?" Cross asked with a look of surprise.

So Marin told the story of his master and his friend.

Hearing that it was the pet of the team members of the God of War Church, Cross stretched out her finger and pointed at the little head of the squirrel Milani: "It's really pitiful, it's used to humans as its masters, and it will be more difficult to survive in the wild than wild spirits, and it will be very hard to survive this winter." ”

"yes, since it can touch me again, I'll adopt it." Marin looked at Milani, who was holding an acorn in Faye's palm, because he couldn't eat the second one, but didn't want to let go, and said with a smile: "Milani, give the acorn to Faye, let her help you keep it." ”

Hearing Marin's words, Milani turned to look at Faye, and after a moment of confusion, he stood up and held the acorn up to Faye.

The little girls' hearts melted at once.

Watching this scene, Marin smiled and patted the small branch in his hand that turned into trekking poles.

Don't worry, you've always been my main house.

Jumping over the hill and walking at the front of the group, Marin stopped at the screams of Milani, and the little squirrel jumped onto Marin's shoulder, pointing ahead and jumping vigorously.

Marin thought for a moment: "You said there is danger ahead?" ”

Milani nodded.

"What kind of danger is it, if you think we people can win, can you take me to see?" Marin felt that it was good luck to be able to meet this little squirrel today, this little thing has lived in this area for half a year, it is definitely half an indigenous, if it can lead the way, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Milani continued to nod, and it pointed at Marin, then into the distance.

"Put away your shield and search the queue." Marlin gave the order, and the two dwarves retreated to the sides of the group, and Jessica, with her musket, walked behind Marin.

Marin let go of Milani, and the little squirrel jumped in front of it, moving along the middle line of the hills, stopping two miles when it approached a forest, and then jumped back on Marin's shoulders and pointed to the other side of the top of the hills.

Marin climbed to the top with Jessica, lying on the snow, draped in the snow camouflage cloth that Marlin had made, and Marin saw a small settlement at the bottom of the hills on the other side.

"It's a goblin." Jessica frowned, "How could they be so close to the human settlements?" ”

Marlin rummaged through the definition of goblins - these fart spirits are a nuisance, their adult combat power needs about five or more to be able to compare with an adult human, but these miscellaneous pieces depend on numbers, Marlin glanced at the settlement: "There are more than forty of them outside, I don't know how many are inside the seven tents, but the total number should not exceed a hundred, I don't see goblins with long-range equipment." ”

"Goblin settlements, if they were a clan, there should be cubs, it's still cold today, and the cubs aren't outside, but this possibility can't be ruled out." Jessica said and looked at Marlin, "Goblins will raid our human villages, take animals such as cows and sheep, and if humans are left alone, especially children, they will even kill their victims and eat them. ”

"In other words, we are in a state of competition with them?"

"Competition? It can be explained this way. ”

"Then I know what to do, you watch them here, I'll go down and assign tasks."

Sliding down the hill and telling the story on the other side of the hill, Marin looked at Faye, "Shall we dispose of them?" ”

"I agree, these goblins may be scouts of a large tribe, and this year's weather is cold, and if the goblin tribes in the wild don't have enough food, they will choose to go out of the mountains and plunder all the villages they can reach." Faye, as the commander, was the first to agree.

As soon as Faye spoke, there was no objection, so Marin and Faye arranged an attack - Marin led the people around to the north, and then cooperated with the caster to pull up the earth elemental avatar and drive the goblins down the hill to the west, while Faye took the remaining casters and archers to shoot the goblins on the top of the hill.

This is the best ending, and if the goblins don't run away, but fight the earth elementals, then Marlin won't rush in with anyone, but will use muskets to name the goblins like the Faye on the top of the hill.

One of the advantages of this era is that most of the apprentices of the church have more or less gun licenses and muskets, the only difference is whether they are accurate enough when shooting at long distances, so Marlin left the players with excellent marksmanship to Faye, who fought far on the top of the hills, and Marin began to move with people who were not good marksmanship, and the gun was replaced with a shotgun - this thing was loaded with a shotgun and swept away, in this case, just hold the fire to the place where the goblins are gathered.

After taking his seat, Marin used the small mirror in his hand to look in the direction of the hill twice, and after receiving a response, Marin and Lilim summoned eight earth elemental avatars.

When the Earth Elemental Avatar appeared, the Golins immediately screamed as a warning, and Marin could see cubs and female goblins coming out of the tent.

One part of the Gorimbu wanted to run away with the cubs, and the other part began to fight with the earth elementals, at this time, the gunfire rang out on the other side of the hills, and they aimed at the fleeing Golimbu, so the Golimbs who escaped from the settlement kept falling, and the hilly plains after the snow had no effective shelter, and there were Golimbs with bows and arrows who wanted to fight back, but their bows could not even send arrows to the top of the hills.

By this time, the Earth Elementals had already broken through the rebellious Gorim Defenses, but Marin and Lilim did not let them chase the escapees, but let them continue to fight the Goblins.

The fleeing goblins lay in a pool of blood, the cold and bleeding would soon kill them, and Marin saw the cub crying among the corpses, and then a bullet knocked it to the ground.

"We're on." Marlin stood up, and Marlin, who had stepped out of the hidden rocks and bushes, turned his back to him, and pulled the trigger from the goblin in the rock, and the buckshot pierced its body, knocking the goblin to the ground.

Marin's companions also began to attack, and many of them escaped and were attacked by the Gorimbus, who was behind the bunker, and the battle was soon over.

Marlin was at the front, finishing the bullets in his lever shotgun, and Marlin was holding the revolver and reloading the struggling goblins.

The young boys quickly dragged in a few surrendered goblins, and one kid pulled out a bottle and poured it on the goblin's head.

Marin walked over and pushed him away, "What are you doing?" ”

"Burn them, Lord Marin." In the entire Harvest Goddess Church, there was no apprentice who didn't know how strong Marin was, and the kid quickly replied, "This is high alcohol. ”

"What a waste, and, remember, we can be butchers of alien races, but not madmen who do all kinds of evil things, they are uncivilized and do not understand conscience, but we know this, so we ......" Speaking of this, Marin glanced at everyone: "All the corimbs, if they are angry, they will be mended with guns, or dealt with with bayonets, but they are not burned or abused, you may do this in my absence, but as long as I am present, you are not allowed to do so." ”

"All right, Your Excellency." The boys pursed their mouths, then took their bayonets from their waists and loaded them with their guns.

Marlin walked past a dying goblin and pointed his revolver at it, but didn't snap it down - it had just taken a breath.

"By the way, Lord Marin, there are some cubs here." A kid came over with a bunch of goblin cubs.

"Do we have a record of using goblins on plantations or mines?" Marin glanced at the cubs, then finally looked up at Faye walking towards him and asked.

"Mines, but to be honest, goblins are more of a one-time item, and these cubs will only be fed to the wolf knight's mount if they're in the north." Faye looked at the little columbs, and then was swept up by the smell of the scene, and reached out to cover his nose.

"Hand them over to the just church and let them deal with these pups." After Marlin finished speaking, Jessica immediately pulled out a large roll of rope and used them to tie up the cubs.

"You are so merciful, Your Excellency." One of the team members said so.

Marin smiled at this: "We kill to protect ourselves and our families and let our hands be stained with blood, it is very important to remember this, simple killing is just the beginning of chaos. ”
