"Guji, Gu."
"Wow!"
"Wow, wow."
"...!"
A faint sound came from deep in the jungle.
Tang Zheng's eyes flashed, he stopped, raised his ears and listened. The vague voice gradually became clearer.
Something is coming here, and a lot of it!
Tang Zheng squinted his eyes, glanced around, quickly locked on a relatively thick tree, walked slowly behind the tree, and waited silently against the trunk.
Time passes little by little!
From time to time, a familiar "wow" sound sounded, which made Tang Zheng's eyes light up.
He has had a lot of dealings with goblins, so this is obviously the cry of a goblin!
really.
This is close to the territory of the trolls!
Tang Zheng was still leaning against the thick tree trunk, his head slightly tilted forward, and he turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.
soon!
A team of thirteen goblins appeared in Tang Zheng's field of vision.
These goblins were wearing tattered clothes that were quite ill-fitting, and some even wore a cut-off trouser leg over their heads as hats.
In such an outfit, he looks like a refugee.
But Tang Zheng's eyes were obviously focused, because among all the goblins he had seen, this was the only group of goblins that all wore clothes, even if the clothes were extremely tattered.
The goblins he saw before were almost naked!
What surprised Tang Zheng the most was that the two goblins walking in the front actually held iron weapons in their hands, although they were just two forks.
Follow the goblin at the front and look toward the back.
Tang Zheng's face showed obvious changes for the first time.
The few goblins at the back were struggling to carry the somewhat bloody corpse, closely following the goblins in front.
people!
Tang Zheng's expression was silent.
There were five corpses in total. From their appearance and clothing, it could be seen that they were three men and two women. The dark and rough arms were hanging on the ground and being dragged.
Tang Zheng realized that these people should be farmers from nearby villages.
Although he is currently located in the Tuobu Forest, he is actually still at the outermost edge of the forest. To the north is the interior of the forest, and to the south, he can leave the Tuobu Forest and enter an area similar to the wilderness.
Continuing to the south, you can see a dirt road extending from "E-Rantel". In this area, there are many villages. Compared with Karn Village, which is located on the territory of Hamsuke, the Wise King of the Forest, neither the villages around the troll territory nor the villages around the territory of the Demon Snake Naga are less safe. Therefore, the Adventurer's Guild in "E-Rantel" has a series of tasks such as destroying monsters and goblins all year round. "Wow, wow." The goblin in front seemed to be walking a little slowly, and screamed a few times at the back. The fangs outside its mouth were full of rage. The goblin carrying the corpse behind heard the howl, with a panicked expression on his green cheeks, and continued to carry the corpse forward with some effort. During the whole process, the group of goblins did not discover Tang Zheng hiding behind the big tree. He watched the goblin team passing in front of him with an expressionless expression. Tang Zheng gently turned the hilt of the sword in his hand, raised his feet, and followed them slowly, hanging behind the group of goblins. Although the number of these goblins is large, it is not a problem! The level of ordinary civilian farmers in the different world is approximately level 1. If trained, there is a chance that they can reach level 2. Ordinary goblins are at this level. After all, they belong to the demihuman race, and they still have some racial advantages. So it's not difficult to deal with these goblins. but. Based on the behavior of these goblins, Tang Zheng guessed that they were probably going to return to their tribe. Realize this. Tang Zheng was naturally not in a hurry to deal with these goblins immediately. As he followed the goblin team and gradually fell into the Tob Forest, Tang Zheng could clearly feel that the surrounding trees and bushes were becoming more and more lush. The atmosphere of the forest began to become a little different. The most obvious thing was that the light suddenly began to dim a lot, and an invisible sense of depression filled the forest. Tang Zheng turned his palms and took out his pocket watch from the prop box. He saw that the time on it was only around 3 pm, but the surrounding light gave him the feeling that it was already evening. "It shouldn't go too deep." Tang Zheng looked at the goblins at the end who were carrying the body. His eyes flickered. At the same time, he raised his iron sword and lightly drew two marks on a big tree next to him. as a mark. In such a huge virgin forest, once you lose your way, it is quite troublesome and dangerous. Therefore, Tang Zheng was naturally prepared. In addition to drawing unique marks on the trees he passes, he also keeps a large bag of specially purchased lime powder in his prop box. We are still in the outer area of the forest, and Tang Zheng can still see clearly, so there is no need to use lime powder for the time being. Next up! Tang Zheng followed this group of goblins for about ten minutes. He was already sure that he would soon reach the tribe of these goblins. Because Tang Zheng had already smelled the rotten smell in the air and the indescribable stench like smelly socks and rotten eggs mixed together.
soon.
A place that makes people suddenly enlightened appears in a dense jungle full of thick and tall trees.
The area is not too big, only about the size of a basketball court and a half. The entire area has obviously been cleaned up, and there are no trees larger than tall.
As soon as the group of goblins entered here, they immediately became active, especially the few goblins carrying the corpse behind became much more excited.
Tang Zheng glanced away.
He saw the bones of many beasts, mixed with some human leg bones and arms, discarded casually.
On the ground near the center, there were several thick skins of unknown animals.
Among them, there was some rotten meat placed on a piece of yellow weeds, and a large number of insects gathered here.
The stench filled the air. That's where it came from.
What caught Tang Zheng's attention the most was a thatched house located in the center of this area that looked obviously made of weeds and branches.
Tang Zheng looked at it seriously, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
The size of this thatched house is obviously much larger than that of the short goblin. The most important thing is that there is only this thatched house in the entire area, which is a bit awkward.
in addition.
The number of goblins is also a bit unusual.
It's not that there are many, it's that there are too few!
This was obviously a small goblin tribe. Apart from the 13 goblins who had just returned to the tribe, Tang Zheng could only see five goblins left behind in the tribe!
Not sure if there were any remaining goblins in that thatched hut.
However, the number of goblins in the left-behind tribe was too small. Although Tang Zheng could not tell the age of the goblins in appearance, he could also see that the goblins in the left-behind tribe were obviously young and strong.
That is to say.
In the small goblin tribe in front of them, there was actually no one old or young.
