Chapter Ninety-Six
After Wangcai swore that the green-skinned dwarf and Shi Junjun would never be in any danger here, or he would never have enough to eat (which was probably the worst fate it could think of), the girl and the green-skinned dwarf were brave enough to walk in the forest at night for the first time.
"Lord Shi Junjun, is it really okay?"
Broccoli, who was still nervously looking around with a flashlight, asked.
The other green-skinned dwarfs in the vicinity were in the same veiled manner.
In the rules of survival that have been passed down from generation to generation in their villages, avoiding walking in the forest after dark as much as possible is an iron rule summed up by countless ancestors with their blood and lives.
"Relax, Wangcai said that this is his territory, and it will be fine."
Having said that, Shi Junjun, who was also holding a flashlight to the darkness, was actually quietly beating a drum in her heart, and the fine beads of sweat on her forehead exposed her true emotions at the moment.
However, the hamsters still looked heartless and indifferent, and they followed behind Wangcai, who took the lead in opening the way.
I don't know how long she walked, but when she walked, Junjun felt that the palm of her hand holding the flashlight was already sweating slightly, and she faintly heard a muffled roar of thunder from a distance.
After another walk, the roar became clearer, a hazy mist rose in the woods, and the air became damp.
"Wangcai, how far is it?"
The girl asked aloud Wangcai, who led the way in front of the group.
"Isn't it already there?"
The oversized hamster in front of her turned sideways to look away.
"Welcome to the Rat House."
A pool of water lies quietly below, and the splendor of the moon pours on the surface of the lake like mercury, sparkling like broken gold, so clear that even the pebbles and swimming fish at the bottom of the lake can be clearly seen.
Not far away, a waterfall that looked like a white water fell halfway down the mountain wall into the lake, stirring up a large mist of water, and the loud sound made a loud noise that terrified the green-skinned dwarfs who had never seen such a scene before.
On the shore of the lake, there is a large area of abundant aquatic plants and clearings, and the fish and birds that inhabit it notice something unusual, and stretch their necks from the dense tall grass to look at these uninvited guests.
"You just have to live in the house of rats and rats, and move around in the nearby forests, and no monsters will dare to attack you."
The goblins shrank their heads and looked at the waterfall for a long time, and then listened to Shi Junjun explain that it was just the movement of the river falling from a high place, and that no monsters would jump out to kill them, and the green-skinned dwarfs dared to poke their heads out from behind the oversized hamsters.
Their eyes widened and they looked incredulously at their new home, their little green faces quickly showing joy, and these green-skinned dwarfs cheered and hugged their companions to celebrate that they had finally found a new home after so many twists and turns.
Shi Junjun, who was standing on the shore of the lake and looked down at his reflection, also had a heartfelt smile on his face after hearing the cheers of the green-skinned dwarfs.
The girl's joy did not last long before fading quickly, and some heavy memories flooded her throat with bitterness and bitterness.
There are people, a lot of people, who don't pay for what they do.
She looked at herself in the water and muttered:
"Then the next thing is ......"
"Ridiculous, ridiculous!"
In the farmhouse in Santan Town, the head of the guard, Reinhardt, who heard the news of his subordinates' report, was furious:
"A full ten selected members of the South Risifus Lord's Guard were forced back by the monsters just a little distance into the forest? And it's been like this several times? What's the use of raising you waste, Lord Viscount Neutron! ”
After seeing the smoke rising from the forest that day, as well as inexplicable flashes and loud noises, the head of the guard, Reinhardt, took immediate action and dispatched the members of the South Risifus Lord Guard, who had already assembled in Santan Town, the closest to the southern forest of South Rissyphus, to select more than ten people as the vanguard to scout and seek the enemy into the forest.
The team initially encountered little hindrance when they entered the forest, but as they approached the area where Goblin Village was located, they were attacked by more and more monsters.
"Your Excellency the Guard, it's not that we don't want to help, it's that the density of monsters in that forest has risen to a terrifying level."
The bandage on the shoulder of the middle-aged guard, who had only one arm left, was still oozing blood, and the leader of the ten people still tried his best to argue in front of the chief guard:
"Every few hundred meters in the forest, we will be attacked by monsters, and my subordinates and nine other brothers will be killed and injured near the village, but before we can check the specific situation, we will be attacked by unknown monsters, if it weren't for the two of them who were there, I and the rest of the people might not have been able to escape......"
Not only that, but those monsters seemed to be quite excited for some reason, and as long as they sensed the existence of the human squad, they would not hesitate to attack, making their team tired to deal with, and finally ending up with only three survivors.
The head of the guard, Reinhardt, scratched his unkempt blonde hair irritably, frowned, and continued to ask:
"Did you directly observe the situation in that village? How exactly did those goblins fend off these monsters? ”
"Although we didn't get close to observe the situation in that village," replied the middle-aged guard with a broken arm after a moment's hesitation, "but with all due respect, I don't think any goblin race can survive in such a situation surrounded by monsters, they must have moved somewhere else......"
After listening to the middle-aged guard's answer, the head of the guard, Reinhardt, couldn't help but show a wry smile.
Goblins are not a rare humanoid race, and the relevant intelligence departments of the kingdom do not know how many years ago they have thoroughly studied this race, and the relevant information is no longer a secret.
It's just that none of the information can explain why there are human girls who know the language of the upper nobles of the kingdom to stay with these aliens and help them fight against the humans of their own race, and why the terrifying monsters that wiped out his team that day also help the goblins......
"Your Excellency the Guardian, I think we need the help of the Adventurers' Guild, they are professionals in dealing with alien races like monsters and goblins, and their participation will definitely make a difference to our current situation."
A nearby guard said.
Originally, this seemingly reasonable and impeccable proposal should have been approved by the vast majority of people present, but the person who spoke about it had clearly forgotten something.
And the head of the guard, Reinhardt, who heard this stupid proposal, shook his head helplessly.
After Viscount Robinette had done that, it was no longer possible for them to ask for help from any of the adventurers of South Risifus.
