The group continued to enter the passageway, and this time, Hawke seemed to have deliberately slowed down and walked with Karui to the end.

When he was some distance from Lista and Fiona, Hawk slowed down again to get closer to Karui, put his arm around the latter's shoulder, and whispered in his ear.

"Brother Kalu, I couldn't help you just now, I was so focused on fighting that I really didn't have time to take care of you and put you in danger."

This big and three rough man actually knew that he was embarrassed and didn't admit his mistake directly in front of Lista and Fiona, but for a person as enthusiastic as him, how could he really not care about the life and death of his friends?

Karui smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and said freely: "It's okay, you don't have to take it to heart, we all know that the situation was urgent, and I didn't react, otherwise I would rush up with you." ”

Hawke hurriedly tugged at the corner of his clothes, and his voice played again: "Whisper, don't disturb the goblins." ”

At this time, Lista and Fiona, who had been quietly listening to the words of the two in front, couldn't help but chuckle, obviously embarrassed to let the two of them hear Hawke's apology, but Hawke still had to push the excuse on the goblin.

Although it was only a very small laugh, it was still keenly noticed by Hawke, and he scratched his head a little embarrassed at the moment, and no longer continued to dwell on this matter.

After walking for a while, several people finally came to the end of the passage, which was a huge cave, and there were a lot of goblins gathered in the cave at this time, and they also built simple houses and mining equipment in the cave, as if this side of the world had become a gathering place for goblins.

The four people hiding at the entrance of the passage were all observing the goblin gathering in front of them, but it seemed that the minds and attention of several people were not on the same goal, and Lista was observing the structure of the entire goblin gathering and the passage connecting the large cavern and the various small caves.

Hawke's attention was all on the goblins in charge of the patrol, looking at the way he clenched the hilt of his sword, it seemed that as long as he gave an order at this time, he could solve all the goblins' combat power in a very short time.

As for Fiona, she observed more carefully, observing the layout of the houses in the gathering place, and counting the number of goblins in the cave at this time.

Fiona observed carefully for a while, and then whispered, "There are thousands of goblins here, and they can only be seen now, I don't know how many are still hidden in those small caves." ”

Lista then said: "Looking at the style of these goblin buildings, most of them are used for daily use, and there seems to be no strange signs. ”

Hawke: "yes, it feels normal, there aren't a lot of patrols, there's no place for special training, even the weapons are shoddy, it's just an ordinary goblin gathering place." ”

With the evidence of the three people, the situation of the goblins is now roughly understood, and when the few people were about to leave, Kalu, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke at this time.

"Oh no, it looks like a mineral spirit has appeared in the goblin gathering place."

Several people immediately followed Karui's gaze, and really saw several ore spirits come out of the ground and appear in front of the goblins, only a moment later, the goblins who met the ore spirits suddenly looked up at the location where Lista was hiding.

Lista: "Oh no, the ore spirit is ventilating!" ”

Several people reacted immediately and hurriedly retreated along the passage, and behind them, the goblins had already sounded the horn of the charge, and there was immediately a dense sound of footsteps behind them.

This time, Hawke surprisingly did not have the intent to fight, but followed the team in silence and retreated.

However, how could the miners who held a grudge let them go so easily? After a few steps, the familiar sound of burrowing into the ground sounded from the surrounding cliffs again.

Fiona frowned, and said in a slightly heavy voice, "Ho, can you feel the horror of revenge now?" Lista, after you break off, I'll open the way. ”

Hawke: "Let me get out of the way." ”

Hawke spoke again, already in the first place, he took a few steps forward, then suddenly stopped, and after a short silence, he suddenly swung his greatsword and rushed forward.

In a short period of time, the narrow passage was covered with sword marks, but because of this, the sound of the mine drilling into the ground really disappeared, and it seemed that this wave was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Under Hawke's leadership, several people quickly rushed out of the ice valley, but fortunately, those goblins and mineral spirits did not seem to leave the ice valley, so they did not catch up.

A few people gasped for breath at the mouth of the valley, and Karui stepped forward and patted Hawke on the shoulder, his eyes full of appreciation.

"Yes, Brother Hawke, this time you didn't choose to fight the goblins directly, but led us away."

Hearing this, Hawk gasped and looked back, at this time his whole body became red, all the hair on his body stood up like barbs, and even his whole body was trembling slightly, and his eyes were full of red light, like a beast that was about to explode at any time.

"It's okay if you're okay, I can't put you in danger anymore because of myself."

After Hawke said this, the whole person fell straight down, but fortunately, Karui next to him hugged his body.

Seeing such a change, Lista and Fiona also hurried to meet them.

Karui: "Brother, what's wrong with you, Hawke, wake up." ”

Fiona: "Could it be that he was injured by the miner when he rushed out just now?" No, we just followed behind us and never saw him attacked. ”

Lista: "I don't think it's an injury, it's kind of like he's exerted too much and he's out of strength. Let's take him back to Bryn. ”

Karui: "Okay. ”

Karui carried Hawke on his back, and the group set out on their way home.

......

In the conference hall, Deyun looked at the few people who had returned from the dust, and couldn't help but show some worried looks on their faces.

Deyun: "Coming back?" Why did you come back so late, I heard from them just now that Hawke was still in a coma and sent to Brin, didn't you go to Kosty? How did it come to this? ”

In desperation, Fiona had no choice but to go to Kos to ask questions about the results, and then went to investigate what was going on in the ice valley.

As soon as he heard that they had actually ventured to investigate from the cliff on the south side, the nervous look on Deyun's face was a little more.

Deyun: "You've actually been to the south cliff yourself?" How can he be so reckless, was Hawke also injured in battle? So, do you have any new discoveries? ”

Lista: "After Hawke's examination by Brin, it was already determined that when we were covering our escape, his physical exertion was too great, so he was unconscious, and his body was not injured, as long as he rested for a while." ”

Lista: "We've found a gathering place of goblins in the valley, where there are a lot of goblins, but it doesn't seem to have a formally trained combat force, just a normal life there. ”

Fiona added, "There are probably thousands of goblins in the cluster, and the number is huge. ”

Deyun nodded as she listened, and then said, "You don't think it's like a formally trained combat force, do you?" But the sheer size of them is a problem, and it seems that they will have to be reported, and I will be able to report them, and it will take some time to get a reply. Go down and rest first, and be glad you are suffering. ”

After the task came to an end, everyone also made a formal report to the head of the group, and after receiving the leader's approval, several people relaxed, and then they needed to wait for the reply from the knights to know what to do next.

......

On this day, seeing that the weather was good, Lista did not continue to bury his head in his room, but thought about going out for a walk.

Wandering through the streets of Kuhan, it didn't take long for two figures on the street to catch his eye, one was an old acquaintance Gailian, and the other was a red-haired beauty with a hot body, and after thinking about it for a while, Lista remembered that he had seen this red-haired beauty before, she was Fergus's wife Anesta, and I heard that she was once a bounty hunter in Moleban.

Seeing that Gélian was sneaky, and Anesta looked embarrassed, Lista probably guessed that it was probably Gailian who didn't know where to find something, and then pestered Arnesta to sell it. In the spirit of seeing the excitement, Lista leaned over.

When they got closer, Lista saw that Galian had shoved a strangely shaped ring into Anesta's hand.

Gailian: "So, this is the real thing?" You're not a bounty hunter, why are you so bad-eyed? ”

Anesta: "It's because I have an eye for things that I don't want to buy it." You still really don't have the eye to see things, if the gem is okay, who will buy such a gloomy ring? ”

Gailian: "Why is this so gloomy?" Take a good look, this ring is exquisitely crafted at a glance, although it is not a gemstone, but it is made of precious metals at a glance, how can it not be valuable? Don't worry, I will never cheat people in business, this price is very appropriate, you can take a good look. ”

Anesta: "Come on, take a look, look at this, it's weird, right?" Half white like a knight's head, half black like a skull, although the workmanship is exquisite, but who would wear this kind of obscure looking ring, it's weird. You have to be a fool to a certain extent, no, the price is still so high......"

was said to be gloomy and unlucky by Anesta one after another, which made Gailian's heart shake, but when his eyes fell on the ring, he was a little unwilling, if he couldn't sell it, wouldn't it be another business smashed in his own hands?

Gailian: "As long as the ring is good-looking and has personality, isn't it?" What is the unfortunate saying? If you really don't like it, it would be nice if you changed it yourself, which is not a difficult thing for Fergus anyway. ”

When Anesta heard this, he wondered if his ears had heard it wrong. Isn't buying a ring the shape of a ring? If you buy it yourself and change it yourself, then why don't you make one yourself and spend money to buy it?
