Chapter 23: The Fugitive Druid

When the overflowing goblins spread to the Southern Leaf Forest, Lin Ze, as the main culprit of this matter, only casually mentioned it to several dependents, so that the future lords of the Black Dragon would have time to repair the wall and dig tunnels.

Even so, when the dense goblins poured outside the wall, the villagers who were in charge of guarding that day were taken aback.

The hunting party and men in the village were quickly gathered outside the wall, distributed weapons, arranged positions, and quickly organized the first wave of defense under the command of Hathaway and Allen.

It was already winter, and the weeds about the height of the goblins under the mound had all been turned into firewood for the women, and looking down from the high sentry posts, the low "tides" of tawny and gray were densely gathered at the main entrance of the village, a fertile hollow in the wide river.

Hathaway estimated the depth of the circular waterway, and the average height of the goblins, and shouted, "Are the floodgates of the waterway open?"

"It's already open, and it won't be long before it's full. ”

The village responded positively to the news that Lin Ze had brought after returning from the coast last time. Rockfalls, pitfalls, and open waterways that have been deepened and widened against massive enemy onslaught all seem to be effective so far.

"Keep an eye on it, it's almost winter, and when it starts to snow, these goblins won't want to go. Hathaway shot an arrow to kill a gray-skinned goblin, a thief-turned-thief who wanted to cut the rope of the rope bridge at the village gate.

The young men stared at Hathaway with burning eyes, intellectual, beautiful, powerful, and with a vigorous and heroic spirit that ordinary women did not have, which pretentious young man did not like it?

After inspecting all the fortifications, the girl saw the gray-bearded old village doctor Bai En running down from the mound.

"Hathaway, come on, what about the children in the literacy program? Why are they all babies! I can't breastfeed!" the village doctor, Bai En, pointed with his fingertips, "Look at you guards, all of them can't read big characters, what are you doing here? What's the use of standing so many half-sized children in just a small position?"

"Grandpa Baien, we're here to guard the village. The boy behind the wall shouted disdainfully, "Killing a goblin is much more useful than knowing a word!"

Bai En looked the anxious girl up and down, and couldn't help but start sneering, "Hathaway, don't forget what Mr. meant. ”

-- Before the beginning of spring next year, we must complete the literacy eradication activities for the population under the age of 14 in the village!

This is what Lin Ze said when he was about to change the old village doctor, and it is also the most basic requirement that Lin Ze set when planning the blueprint for several dependents. Hathaway nodded, Mr. is very strict with their study, among them, Allen, who has the worst learning progress, has been beaten more than once, and now his movements are a little stiff when he draws the bow.

If the gentleman's literacy program does not go well because of himself......

"Those under the age of fifteen, out of the ranks!" Hathaway held the hilt of the sword in his hand, and instantly transformed from a hard-pressed student role to a heroic bloodline warrior, "If you have a study task today, go back to the classroom immediately, and if you don't meet the learning task standard, you will be the last one in the evening class assessment, and your training will be doubled tomorrow!"

"Grandpa Baien, you think it's okay, if Mr. can't complete his study task, we will all be punished, you keep an eye on it over there, and I'll think of a way here......" Hathaway and Bai En urged these young men who skipped class to go back to class, while agreeing on the standard of study and punishment.

"Captain of the Guard, Physician. Alan nodded to the two of them and handed Hathaway a bark note, "Two druids found on the east side of the village. This is their basic information, and Smith has stopped the person. ”

"Druid?" the two looked at each other, Bai En nodded and returned to the classroom, while Hathaway hurried in the direction of Allen with his sword in hand, "Let's go over and have a look." ”

......

The middle-aged druid Feng Lun was wearing a gray robe, and the long distance and long trek made him and the disciples around him look tired from the dust. Looking at the gray-green mound opposite, the middle-aged druid from Kaishir couldn't help but sigh: "This is a very powerful power, if the spellcaster can use it to maintain nature instead of such destructive behavior, he will definitely receive the most generous gift from nature." ”

"The teacher said the mound was man-made?" hesitated the druid apprentice Hedrick.

"No, I mean this village, this village was built with a lot of supernatural power, and I felt the twisted spirit of the trees under those wooden fences. Feng Lun kept rubbing the staff in his hand, and the warning from the Heart of Nature was a little hesitant whether it was appropriate for the two of them to enter the village like this.

But he didn't have time to think, and the female warrior who was surrounded by the villagers was already at the fence and motioned for the two of them to come and talk.

"Good afternoon, Druid von Baker Hamlet wishes to pay a price to survive this beast tide in your land. "Before becoming an aspiring druid, Feng Lun was the second son of a noble family in Keshir, and although he had no inheritance rights, he did not leave behind anything that should be learned, such as etiquette and the like.

"Hathaway Clark, the owner of this place. Hathaway, who was wearing leather armor, put her hand on her chest and performed a knightly etiquette like a man, "I don't know what the two of you are still doing in the jungle when winter is approaching?"

"As you can see, we stayed here for a while to study a new seed, or we wouldn't have been destroyed by that sudden madness of ugly creatures. Feng Lun laughed at himself and explained to the puzzled crowd: "This time it was not only those dwarf goblins who were dispatched, but also the bear goblins and goblin alchemists who served as guards, and they directly destroyed my laboratory by surprise, if it weren't for luck, our master and apprentice would have died under the flames of the goblins' explosives." ”

"Pull them up, do the ingredient investigation first, Mr. needs a legal position. Hathaway whispered a few words to the blacksmith Smith on the side, and then instructed the villagers to pull the druid master and apprentice up the fence with a huge basket.

The width of the fence wall made of logs and clay bricks is between one meter and two meters, and even if there are a few villagers around him, Feng Lun can move forward without worrying about crowding, "Miss Clark's village is very well built, and it is a neat pioneer village that I have seen in Nanluoye. Feng Lun praised the neatly planned houses under the mound and the scattered caves on the mound.

"The master praised us, we have just migrated here, and everything is just the beginning, how can it be called satisfying. Hathaway smiled wryly, they had heard Lin Ze talk about his future planned territory in the Dragon's Lair more than once, and in the words of his own husband, he didn't want to come to such a "construction site" style development village.

After a few pleasantries, the group arrived at a recently built adobe house, and Hathaway finally asked about her most concerns.

"Are you saying that there are bear goblins and goblin alchemists in the goblins this time?" Although the walls of the Pioneer Village can withstand the one-meter-two tall waste wood goblins outside, they face the bear goblins who use heavy hammers and axes...... Hathaway was skeptical that she would be able to hold off a fierce and savage bear goblin and a group of goblin guards that followed him. The most ferocious and brutal of all goblin relatives are tall, strong, vicious, and more agile than ordinary humans, and they are the rulers of ordinary goblins, and their own strength is beyond the resistance of ordinary villagers, plus the elven alchemists who can skillfully use goblin explosives.

- The gaffe is serious.

A few people couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, they had just gotten rid of the entanglement of the tax officer when they encountered such a thing, and it seemed that luck was working against the village.

"I'll go find my husband. Hathaway said goodbye, and took Alan out of the house with the intention of going to Lin Ze to move the rescue troops to survive the crisis.
