Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Power of the Three Guns

Xiao Chen took Ye Zi and Zhang Sicheng to a place less than 100 meters away from the gate of the camp, holding Shi Hao's binoculars and carefully observing the movements in the camp. Shi Hao was left in his previous position, ready to snipe.

The five goblin shamans dug a large array on the ground between the five pillars, and then retreated to the edge of the pillars, and in a few moments the camp resounded with a chaotic drum, but with a wild atmosphere.

The goblins throughout the camp were instructed by the sound of drums, and they all came out of the camp and gathered around the square. Although the goblins were noisy and chaotic, and there were even a few fights, Xiao Chen found that they had a clear class distinction.

The tallest and strongest goblins stood closest to the pillars, all dressed in grass clothes and armed with weapons, most of them holding short spears, some carrying swords and axes, and even simple leather armor, who were supposed to be warriors of the tribe.

They are followed by the women and children of the goblins, and there are many more children than women, indicating that these goblins are very reproductive. The female goblins are often dressed much more shabby than the warriors, and many are still poorly dressed. The little goblins were mostly naked, revealing their yellow-green bodies, scurrying all over the field, but none of them dared to run into the range of the five pillars. At the outermost end were some old and weak goblins, whose position was barely clear in the middle of the square.

The drums stopped, and the hum of the goblins muted to each other. On the main road connecting the square to the depths of the camp, a group of goblins walked. The goblins appeared in a very different manner from the rabble of onlookers, most of them were dressed in full leather armor, spears in their hands, and marched in two neat columns, the first goblin, who looked quite old, had dark green skin, a high crown made of animal bones on his head, wore a straw robe dyed blue, and a necklace of rough gems around his neck. He carried a wooden staff in his hand, which looked like a torch, except that instead of a flame, a fist-sized gem emitted a bloody glow.

"Here they are! Xiao Chen saw that behind this group of goblins, several people with depressed expressions were tied up, and under the threat of the goblin warriors' short spears, they also walked out.

"It seems like we're not the only ones. Although Ye Zi didn't have a telescope, he also found that more people came out than expected.

"Professor Lin, Zhao Rui and Li Tianrui, and two locals. Xiao Chen saw in the telescope that these people were more or less injured, and there were dried blood stains on their faces, it seemed that they had suffered a lot after being caught by the goblins.

Professor Lin was at the front, he was old after all, and he was frightened and stumbled when he walked. His student Zhao Rui also seemed to have been hit hard, his eyes were dull and he looked chaotic. However, the soldier Li Tianrui, while being pressed away, was still looking east and west, as if he was looking for an opportunity to escape.

"Aren't we going to act now?" Ye Zi crouched beside Xiao Chen, staring at the camp with his eyes, and asked a little anxiously.

"It's not time yet, we have to wait for Shi Hao to shoot. Xiao Chen took out the scroll from his bag and held it in his hand, "He is a trained warrior after all, we have to trust his ability to judge opportunities." ”

The old goblin shaman stopped on the sidelines, and the warrior behind him pressed the five humans to the five pillars, untied the ropes from their upper bodies, and then crossed their hands backwards and tied them to the pillars. Li Tianrui struggled a few times, was punched in the stomach by a goblin warrior, and couldn't stand up in pain, he cursed a few words, and finally provoked the goblin warrior to tie a rope around his neck, completely unable to move.

After binding them up, the five shamans came up and cut their shirts open with knives, revealing their chests, and they all screamed. Zhao Rui shouted very loudly: "I don't want to die here, I don't want to die at the hands of these savage monsters." Whoever comes and saves me. He saw that Li Tianrui was still struggling, and shouted to him: "Li Tianrui, aren't you a soldier? ”

Li Tianrui turned his head a little with difficulty, and said hatefully: "I can't even move my neck, what can I do!"

"You, that's how you were a soldier, that's how you protect us?"

"Ahem...... When is this coming, don't make any noise, we are tied up here, and the goblins are surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, unless there is a large group of people to save us, otherwise we will have to accept our fate. Xiao Zhao, don't blame Xiao Li, it's useless to be noisy now. Ahem, it's better to see what kind of tricks these goblins have. Professor Lin didn't have much strength, and what he said barely reached the ears of the other two.

But Zhao Rui continued to shout as if he hadn't heard it: "There are also Zhang Sicheng, Ye Zi and Xiao Chen, one of them is the captain, and the other two have bad ideas together, and they have to explore the situation of the goblins." Bastards, bastards! ”

Li Tianrui and Professor Lin knew that it would be in vain to say more at this time, so they no longer paid attention to Zhao Rui, and they both removed their eyes and let him scold from the sky to the ground.

However, the two people on the opposite side were attracted by Zhao Rui's shouting. One of them, a somewhat old middle-aged man, dressed like the previous guide of the expedition, presumably also a nearby hunter, glanced at Zhao Rui with some pity, who looked like he was crazy, and then closed his eyes and began to pray. And the other man was less than thirty years old, with dark gray hair and light green eyes, his skin was a little pale, and he wore much more decent clothes than hunters, the upper body was a light gray cotton short, and the lower body was a pair of dark blue pants, he looked at Zhao Rui in surprise and cursed, as if he had forgotten even to be afraid.

The goblin didn't give Zhao Rui much chance to make trouble, he didn't scold a few words before two goblin warriors ran over and beat him with two sticks, Zhao Rui screamed a few times, and after a while, he only had the strength to hum, and he didn't dare to shout anymore.

Ten sturdy goblin warriors gathered around the old goblin in front of the leader, and walked to the stone platform in the middle of the pillar. The old goblin stood still in front of the stage, first looking around at the goblins that surrounded the entire square, and then his eyes looked over the five bound humans in turn. Whether it was an earthling or a local, they were stared at by the dark green eyes of the old goblin, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at them.

The old goblin nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly, he raised his wooden staff into the air and began to chant loudly, while the goblins in the square knelt down one after another, touching their heads to the ground. The old goblin sang in a strange tone, while shaking the wooden staff in his hand, and dancing to a strange beat under his feet, and gradually a light green water ball appeared in the air, and the water ball continued to roll and grow larger and larger with the singing, dancing and shaking wooden staff, until it was several times larger than the old goblin's body, and the old goblin used the wooden staff to lead the water ball to the stone platform, and it fell on the table, cracked into a pool of blue water, and flowed down the stone platform into a pre-dug array.

The array was filled with green water, emitting a glowing green light. The old goblin seemed to have a great deal of effort, and gasped with his cane. He waved his hand in front of the stone platform, and the five shamans took out their daggers and walked towards the five bound sacrifices.

"Oops! Are they going to do it?" Xiao Chen nervously looked back at the height behind him, why didn't Shi Hao shoot yet?

And at this moment, three gunshots rang out in a row.

It's not that Shi Hao doesn't want to shoot, but he hasn't found a chance, Xiao Chen told him when he went down the mountain that if his captured hostages appeared in the camp, he would prepare to snipe the leader of the goblins and create a scene where the dragons were leaderless.

When the old goblin appeared, Shi Hao could see from his pomp that this must be an extraordinary figure in the goblin tribe. Later, when I saw him standing in the middle of the field, the other goblins actually knelt down, and they thought he was the best target. But the old goblin has been surrounded and guarded by goblin warriors since he entered Shi Hao's line of sight, and at night without scopes and night vision devices, Shi Hao is not sure to hit the old goblin who has been moving. Later, when the old goblin sang and danced, although he left his guard, the strange dance movements were too fast, and Shi Hao still didn't dare to shoot. It wasn't until the spell was completed and the old goblin was panting with a wooden staff that Shi Hao knew that the opportunity had finally come!

The unknown spell seemed to be completed perfectly, and Shi Hao vaguely saw that the old goblin's tired face showed a relieved smile, this was the moment when the old goblin was most relaxed.

He did not hesitate to shoot.

Three points and one line, follow the feeling and press the trigger.

The first gunshot rang out.

A ball of blood erupted from the old goblin's right shoulder, and his body fell backwards involuntarily, and the wooden staff in his hand came out of his hand. Shi Hao secretly let out a bad breath, moved the muzzle of the gun slightly, and then pressed the trigger.

A second gunshot rang out.

With a thud, the old goblin's crown was shattered into the air, but it didn't hit the target. Shi Hao scolded secretly in his heart, damn it, I'm nervous. He vaguely knew he only had one chance. If the old goblin pounces on the ground, he will fall behind the stone platform, and there is nothing he can do. Shi Hao pressed the gun down a little, and said secretly: "God forbid." ”

A third gunshot rang out.

God still favored Shi Hao, and the bullet shot out from the muzzle of the gun, instantly drilling into the cheek of the old goblin, and the back of the head flew out, and it was like breaking a rotten watermelon, and the red and white color splashed around in a mess. When the old goblin was planted on the ground, the jewel chain on his chest belatedly formed a translucent cyan shield as if it had been triggered by some mechanism, covering his corpse inside.

The old goblin fell, and several guards around him suddenly became a mess, some wanted to hug people, some wanted to grab the scepter, and several shamans who were going to kill the sacrifice also rushed over. The goblins outside were screaming in fright and scurrying around. Goblins of all sizes pushed and squeezed each other, and the whole square was in chaos.

When Xiao Chen saw this scene, he immediately stood up, took the scroll in his hand, and said to Zhang Sicheng, "It's time to see us!"
