Even as their numbers dwindle day by day, they will not venture out knowing the danger.
However, their life or death is not important to the Goblin Empire.
Their existence is solely for stalling for time, allowing the strongest Goblin Centurion and Goblin Champion to be selected, then upgraded and used against the enemy.
In their view, this delay would only harm humanity.
Once they recover, humans will be no threat!
As for the unknown powerful figure who killed the king of a neighboring country, the Goblin Empire's high command now unanimously believes that he is most likely not here.
After all, it would be easy for the other side to destroy the Goblin Empire, so why bother killing these low-level goblins bit by bit?
Wu is trying to wear down their fighting strength little by little because he can't break through!
Upon learning this, Gogin regained his confidence, but he was also worried that the enemy would suddenly appear when the Empire won, giving them even greater despair, so he was in a state of anxiety all day.
On the other side, some of the heroes were relaxed, while others were quite anxious.
On the one hand, they are steadily reducing the number of goblins, and there have been no casualties among the heroes, which is a good thing.
On the other hand, the original rush to attack was to prevent the goblins from recovering their strength, but now it has given them time to recover.
Although Si is reducing the number of goblins, it will take some time to kill them all. What if the goblins recover during this time?
Many people are waiting for An Yi to give them a reassuring answer.
Erdanian's answer is;
"Since the enemy has deployed sufficient troops to deal with us, we have no other choice but to use this method."
Don't assume that everything will go as planned.
We're just making plans, not making wishes.
These words were like a slap in the face to many brave souls, waking them from their fantasies.
Yes, they will deal with the enemy, and the enemy will also figure out how to deal with them.
War is war, and not everything will go as they wish.
Even with a well-thought-out plan, there will always be times when changes are necessary.
Because the enemy is also changing, they must change too.
Although it dealt a slight blow to morale, many heroes felt that they had also grown as a result.
After all, I had been too presumptuous before.
During this period, besides clearing out goblins, all that can be done is to spend more time practicing and refining their teamwork.
Actually, it's a good thing for both the heroes and the beastmen.
Firstly, the heroes' teamwork didn't actually take a very long time, so there was still room for improvement.
Secondly, the beastmen were still in the recovery period, and the long-term hunger and lack of exercise had caused their bodies to "degenerate" a lot.
Therefore, this period of time is just right for the orcs to recover more strength, and for the heroes to spend more time getting to know each other.
At this time when both sides are preparing for war...
In another region, the Bow Hero Squad made a new discovery.
Shara and her team members weren't originally heroes of Shwe Town; although it was the same region, it was located on the border with another region.
After leaving Shiwei Town, they traveled along the border, assisting low-level heroes in their battles against demons, until they reached the area under the jurisdiction of [Flower Sea].
Coincidentally, the members of [Flower Sea] are in Svet Town preparing to attack the Goblin Empire, and the Bow Hero Squad can protect the lower-level heroes while [Flower Sea] is away. (Seven)
Just yesterday, they met Ruby, the "Thousand-Man Warrior".
Ruby suggested that they take the dolls to the forest to hunt goblins and test the performance of Number Two.
They knew Ruby, having met her briefly during the "dummy head" incident, so they readily agreed.
The test results were better than expected.
Ordinary goblins, or even low-intelligence goblins like the giant goblin, would flee far away upon smelling the scent of the royal servant emanating from Number Two, some even losing control of their bladders in fear.
These two types of goblins have extremely low resilience, and coupled with being stunned, they are easy to kill.
Even goblins at the Goblin Shaman level will be startled by the smell, but they will observe Number Two from a distance.
To them, Number Two was undoubtedly a "human," but their sense of smell told them that it was a very advanced goblin.
However, almost none of them dared to make a move; they all fled as soon as they got close.
When they encounter the Goblin Centurion, they will feel an instinctive fear because of the scent of the Royal Guard that comes from Number Two.
However, compared to goblins below level three, goblin centurions have a much stronger desire to attack.
When Number Two began fighting the Goblin Centurion, one possibility was confirmed.
That is, using the muscles and skin of the Goblin King can greatly enhance the puppet's attributes.
The puppet, which was originally only meant to deal with big goblins, unexpectedly defeated the goblin centurion with its speed and strength.
Even the Bow Hero Squad has become very interested in the puppet. Thinking that since they're there to back them up, they'd better find a goblin centurion to fight!
then……
Can't find it.
The area where the Goblin Centurion should have appeared has lost its Centurion!
They caught a lucky centurion, beat him for a long time before he finally spoke, uttering two words in completely broken human language: "Go...away."
"The centurion is gone?" Shara asked.
The goblin centurion, whose head had been beaten into a pig's head, quickly nodded.
"Where did you go?" Shara asked again.
The centurion shook his head.
It doesn't know.
"Where are there any goblins like your superior now?" Shara continued to ask.
The centurion shook his head again.
It doesn't know either.
Shara: "You know nothing, just die."
Number Two, kill it.
Centurion: "Huh?"
"Oh!"
Number Two leaped from behind and punched Goblin Centurion through the head. 々≯▲』
With the addition of mutated Goblin King materials, the Goblin Centurion's 10 points of toughness are completely inadequate.
Upon learning that the Goblin Centurion was absent, the Bow Hero Squad decided to continue their journey.
With special abilities, they can even fight against Goblin Kings.
Moreover, they only brought one doll with them, and Ruby also said that if they encountered danger that made it impossible to take care of the doll, they could leave the doll behind to cover their retreat.
Since you're accompanied by a puppet and not a newcomer, you can continue exploring without worrying too much.
With the presence of the Leaf Warrior, exploring the forest is not difficult.
The deeper they went, the stranger they found it.
Because... just like in the Sweeney Town area, you can't find any goblin centurions in the forest.
In other words, there are absolutely no goblins of level 5 or higher.
"Have they also retreated to the heart of the Empire to defend it?"
Shara and her three teammates were all puzzled.
Although there were attacks on the Goblin Empire in this region, both the attacks and the goblin resistance were part of a stable trend.
In other words, the goblins did not put up a particularly fierce resistance, and the heroes killed a certain number of them based on their experience points.
Unlike Shiwei Town, there was no sudden large-scale war.
Since there's no indication of starting a war, why are the goblins here retreating?
It's hard to explain just by being afraid of death, isn't it?
After all, since [Jiuhuahai] has been away for a while, fewer heroes have come here. Why did the Six Goblin Centurion 4th Commander retreat?
too weird.
Because the Goblin Empire's capital city is located in a human city, this region was used as a reference to find an old map, which marked several ancient ruins deep in the forest.
After exploring a certain distance, they returned to town, leaving Number Two behind and informing the local Hero Alliance. The four members of the Bow Squad then set off for the ruins deep in the forest.
Fortunately, after a day and a night of searching at full speed, they found a lot of traces of goblin life in the second ruin.
Good news! The Goblin Kingdom has been discovered.
Even better news: the goblins... are all gone.
Apart from a small number of goblin centurions outside the city, no higher-ranking goblins were seen throughout the entire city.
They even wondered if this was the city where the goblin centurions lived.
So they found a few lucky goblin centurions and fought them for a long time before they learned that this was indeed their "king's territory".
The four did not torture the goblin centurion, but instead asked him where all the goblins of level five and above had gone.
The footprints left by the numerous goblins as they left behind already provided them with the answer.
Following the footprints, the four walked for a while before stopping.
Because they knew where they would arrive if they kept walking in that direction.
S is a natural barrier, the border between the Goblin Empires.
These goblins migrated towards another goblin empire.
Thinking about the upcoming war against the Goblin Empire, the four of them couldn't help but wonder if the goblins of that empire had gone to the neighboring country to join the reinforcements.
