Chapter 24: The Soul of the Good
Tides of goblins poured out of the Grey Mist Forest, brandishing rudimentary weapons, howling and dripping with foul-smelling saliva, and in their eyes, everything in Fateh Village had turned into delicious food. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Behind the goblins were a team of bear goblins, as strong as their name suggested, wielding a meteor hammer and their own claws, and from time to time they would be grabbed by the goblins they caught up with and thrown aside.
Then, there was a group of big goblins with neat steps, armed with uniform spears and dressed in standard leather armor, exactly like regular troops.
At the end of the line, there are three fat giant goblins, and on the shoulders of these three giant goblins each sit a goblin spellcaster, as a dull deformity, the intelligence of the giant goblins is slightly inferior to that of ordinary goblins, so a high-intelligence commander is needed.
。。。。。。
"The scouts spotted the goblins, closed the gates, and everyone was ready for battle. ”
"The goblins came like a tidal wave, but they couldn't even break through the first wall of firewood and grass. ”
"The bear goblins in the rear broke up the first firewood and grass wall, and were blocked by the second bluestone wall. ”
Scott's palm slashed across the bluestone fence, and there were still bear goblin claw marks and blood stains on it.
"They howled and climbed, but they were driven away by the prepared militia with all kinds of tools, and they could not break through the bluestone wall. ”
Then, the goblins arrived, and instead of attacking, they waited for the arrival of the giant goblins and goblin casters. ”
"And once it reaches the casting range, the goblin caster immediately activates the [Fireball Technique], which knocks down the gate and the arrow tower and burns it, along with the firewood and grass wall on the first perimeter. ”
The goblin caster then drove the giant goblins to tear down the bluestone wall, releasing all the goblins and bear goblins into the village. ”
Scott's footsteps did not stop, returning to the junction of the gate and the wall and the arrow tower, he looked at the bluestone wall that had been kicked by the huge soles of his feet, and felt the elemental aura remaining on the gate and the remains of the arrow tower.
"The villagers resisted, fought, were killed, the bodies were dragged away, and then the goblins began a house-by-house search, captive, tied up, took away, and burned down the houses. ”
The footprints of the goblins on the ground and the direction of the bloodstains confirmed Scott's prediction, and made his face heavier and heavier.
It has only been about three weeks since he succeeded as the lord of the fortress, but every time he encounters a goblin, he refreshes his perception of the goblin race again and again.
From the survival and looting like wild beasts, to the theft that gathers into groups of more than a dozen or dozens of them, to the hundreds of bandits who form a frenzied raid and the emergence of a subspecies of goblins, and even the commanders and spellcasters with high intelligence.
And this time, it is already a corps-level organization.
Ordinary soldiers, siege squads, elite guards, spellcasters, commanders, and [siege weapons]...
Even if the strength of the goblins is different from that of humans, the legion-like structure makes Scott can't help but imagine that if it were the day when the [Earth Spirit Kingdom] really handed over to [Faeron], would it be an army of millions of goblins that appeared on the main material plane?
"Does it feel heavy?"
Kiana Moon Shadow arrives from behind Scott and walks side by side with Scott in the ruins of the village, she has returned from the Fortress Gladiatorial Arena, and now Scott is in front of her real body.
"In the annals of the Demon Hunters, every time a plane invades, there will inevitably be an army of otherworldly creatures. ”
"Whether it's the [Earth Spirit Country], or other elemental planes, or the Tanari Demon and the Bazut Devil, it's like this. ”
"Although it cannot be compared with the size of the main material plane, these invading outer planes have all given birth to life, and naturally have their own civilization. ”
"So, there's nothing surprising about that. ”
Looking at Chiana's explanations and reliefs dancing in front of him, Scott suddenly realized that even though she had survived for an unknown number of years, the Night Elf girl in front of her still seemed simple and cute in some ways.
The corners of Scott's mouth began to curl slightly, and some of the heaviness gradually subsided, and he clenched his fist.
"In the future, the troops will block, and the water will cover the earth. ”
"I'm the lord of the fortress, a man who wants to protect the entire main material plane, how can I be intimidated by such a few goblins!"
。。。。。。
As night fell, the [Manchez Light] merchant group also came to Fateh Village, the ruins in front of him obviously made Saran feel quite surprised and sad, although this village did not bring him benefits, but it is one of the few rest places that can make the whole merchant group smile, Saran likes the leisure and comfort of resting here.
It was already dark, and the merchant group had no time to find a new camp, so they could only deal with it overnight on the ruins of Fatek Village, and fortunately, although there were still blood stains on the ground, the goblins carried away all the corpses, whether they were goblins or humans, and simply cleaned up, and the ground was clean enough for the merchant group to station.
Bonfires burned, caravans formed in a circle to form simple fortifications, and then there was a silent meal and rest, and the destruction of Fateh Village made most of the members of the caravan emotionally depressed, and the whole caravan was left unto talk and frolic.
Scotto automatically applied to be the night guard, with Chiana Moonshadow by his side.
Silently stroking the hammer handle of the [Dark Hand], Scott was a little dazed, the crescent moon in the sky flickered with a cold light, and the chirping of the insects around him seemed to be hypnotic, making him slowly fall asleep.
Scott felt himself standing on a towering lookout, holding a simple brass telescope in his hand, one eye closed, peering into the distance, while an unfamiliar voice spat out of his mouth.
"This is Terry and his widowed wife, it seems that the family has run out of food, and has gone out to dig wild vegetables. ”
"That's Carter and his daughter, it's so laid-back, they're fishing, I don't know how the harvest will be?"
"Why are Sally and Camille together? Oh, it looks like they just came back from hunting, what's behind Sally? What a big wild boar! It looks like I'm going to his house to buy knife meat at night, and I haven't opened meat for a long time... ”
“。。。。 ”
"The Grey Mist Forest is still so green, hey, who is that?"
"Calant and Miloc, did they go hunting too?"
"Hey, what's behind them? Goblins! It's Goblins!"
"A lot of goblins!"
"Calant, Miloc, run, run!"
"No! ”
"Oh no! The goblins are coming towards the village!"
Goblins, locust-like goblins, poured over the walls, into the villages, into every house, and Scott found himself unable to control it, his body running, turning, howling.
"Kanina, Karina, Kasanna, my children, God willing, bless... ”
"No, how can it be !!"
In front of Scott was an empty house, the heavy wooden bed had been violently uncovered, but the deep hole below was like a demon's mouth wide open, some mocking, some terrifying.
"It shouldn't be like this, I'm going to find them!!"
"I have to find them!"
Scott watched as he rushed into the kitchen, picked up a kitchen knife from the messy floor, and then turned again and rushed out of the house.
And now, Scott has discovered that what he is experiencing at this moment may be the day when Fate Village was attacked by the goblin army, and what he has left in his consciousness at this moment should be a certain villager in Fat Village that day.
Hidden, running, searching, perhaps blessed by the gods, three girls tied up appeared in front of Scott's eyes, they cried helplessly, but they were dragged by goblins like pigs, and then Scott's attached body immediately trembled violently with excitement, and then frantically rushed to the goblins leading the girl forward.
"Daddy, save us, Daddy!"
"No, Dad, be careful!
When the maidens saw the figure rush out, their faces were immediately filled with ecstasy, but in the next moment they turned to despair, and they cried out, scattered tears falling in the air with their hair.
"Karina, Karina, Kasanna, Daddy is coming to your rescue! ”
He didn't get what he wanted, a sharp spear pierced his chest from behind, and Scott followed his vision to see the blood-stained tip of the spear, and then his hand slowly let go, and the kitchen knife and improvised brass binoculars fell silently to the ground red with his blood.
Then, with a shudder, Scott found himself still sitting by the campfire, one hand resting on his forehead, and a black cloak draped over his body.
"You fell asleep just now, and I was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I borrowed your cloak to put it on. ”
Although she lent her cloak to Scott, Kiana covered her face with a veil and hid her long ears under the hood.
"Thank you!"
Smelling the body fragrance on the cloak, Scott's heart warmed a little, and then he stood up and returned the cloak to Chiana. He took a burning firewood from the campfire and began to walk through the ruins of the village, feeling what he needed to do from Fang Cai's dreams.
"Found it. ”
In the corner of a collapsed house, Scott found a thick, blackened stain of blood, as well as a simple brass telescope that had been flattened by goblins and shattered crystal lenses.
Picking up the telescope, Scott lit a bonfire and saw a small line of letters on the brass telescope's housing: Carl Torres.
"I don't know if it's your name, but it doesn't matter anymore. ”
"I, Scott, Lord of the Fortress, hereby swear that I will banish the goblins from Feren and make them impossible to plunder for eternity. ”
"If your daughters are still alive, I will also save them from the slavery of the goblins and return to the human world. ”
As Scotter experimented, dozens of colorful soul fragments slowly emerged from the broken brass telescope, outlining a vague figure in the air, bowing deeply to Scott, and then dissipating into countless points of light and merging into Scott's body.
