Arcane Lord

Chapter 62: Orc Trail

   It's just that, as soon as Xia Duo's voice fell, almost everyone fell silent. Originally, some of the team members were still chatting, but now they are not chatting anymore. The atmosphere seems to have undergone subtle changes.

   "Captain Gibb?"

   "Huh?" Gibb seemed to recover suddenly, "Master Xia Duo, what's the matter?"

   "……"

Chateau repeated the question just now, but added a qualifier-"in the forest." Chateau also thought of it now. If it is not specifically mentioned, he will usually talk about undead creatures. The night watchmen of the territory connected.

   The night watchman is a taboo term in Savile, and even other areas of Netheril. Most people will try to avoid mentioning them. This is what Xia Duo knew after joining the Wizard Tower.

   It's just that Xia Duo is an outsider after all. It is really hard to empathize with these taboos. After seeing other people's weird performance, I think about it.

   After adding the qualifier, Gibb's stiff expression recovered, but even so, Gibb was reluctant to say the word "undead".

   "Mage Xia Duo, I have been in the territory army for almost eight years, and I have never encountered them in the forest, but I know someone has encountered a goblin skeleton that moves."

   Xia Duo nodded and didn't ask any more.

   Soon everyone finished their rest and began to continue looking for actual targets.

  After destroying a wild boar, a flock of deer, and a brood of goblins, everyone returned with their spoils.

   This actual combat training was quite successful. Except for two people who were hit by a wild boar because they didn't avoid them in time, the others were hardly injured.

   This is of course due to the care of the veterans and the recruits of former adventurers who were enlisted, which allowed ten pure newcomers, including Chateau and Dean, to get a good experience.

   The situation on Sammy and Dewann is also very smooth. There are experienced veterans and former adventurers, and the actual combat training is still very easy without going too far into the forest.

In fact, their actual combat training is actually the daily task of most adventurers in Savile. Of course, the tasks of the territory soldiers are similar. Except for the guards of the town, they are more to clean up the wild beasts and goblins in the forest. .

  Protect and even expand the scope of activities of the people in the territory. Of course, this is actually actually opening up the territory for Lord Savile.

   In the next few days, Xia Duo would take people to the forest to kill every afternoon. In addition to meeting the actual combat training needs, the team members also received a small amount of money.

   In this way, as time gets closer and closer to the end of the month, the atmosphere in the barracks becomes more and more tense. Some teams even stay in the wild all day, wanting to conduct as much actual combat as possible.

   Of course, there are those who are happy, and there are those who are lost. Fortunately, if they are injured, there are the glorious waiters of Amanata in the camp. These priests who follow the glorious path of Amanata have extraordinary healing powers.

   As long as the body is not missing parts, the injury can usually be recovered, but if a person dies, there is no way.

   In addition, the team is short of people. After filling people, it is very likely that they will be an ordinary person again, so they will have to retrain. The Orcs tide is at the end of the month. How much time is there for training?

   At this time, Xia Duo was very fortunate that his team only had five pure rookies, including him, and many other teams were basically two veterans with nine rookies.

   If the apprentice knows that it is okay to advance and retreat, if he still wants to fight for command, it would be a disaster.

  ……

   This afternoon, Xia Duo took people to the Green Pearl Forest again. After several previous actual combat trainings, Xia Duo's excellent performance was seen by everyone.

   Gibb and Dean team’s Captain Uke has completely acquiesced in Chardeau’s command, behaving like two ordinary soldiers, even Aiwa, who has always been fascinating, can be dispatched at will through Gibb.

   Today, the goal of Xia Duo and others is a small goblin tribe, which was discovered by Aiva when they came out for actual combat training yesterday, because it was getting late at the time, so they didn't go deep to clear it.

   So today I went straight to the goal.

   Aiwa was exploring the way with Dean’s Mavre in front, and Chateau and others moved slowly behind.

   "Captain Gibb, did you just say that this small goblin tribe may have just migrated?" Xia Duo asked.

   "Yes, now this distance, although it has gone deep into the forest a lot, but generally speaking, it is still within the clearing range of adventurers and territory soldiers. If it had been there before, I would definitely know."

   After finishing speaking, Gibb added, "Goblins are not productive at all. It is difficult to settle down in one place."

"Ok."

Xia Duo nodded. Now the main goal of the team's actual combat training is goblins. It is not that other goals are not good, but the number of goblins is the largest. Sometimes a litter has just been cleared the day before, and another litter will appear when passing by the next day. .

   is inexhaustible.

   is only a dozen or twenty, as few as two or three, and even a single one. As the recruits have become more experienced, the effectiveness of this training has become weaker and weaker.

   And the small goblin tribe discovered this time, there are nearly a hundred, it is the largest number of discoveries these days, Xia Duo still attaches great importance to it.

  He is going to use this as the last actual combat training before the orcs.

  ……

   From a distance, Xia Duo could already see some simple fences built with dead branches and rotten wood, and seven or eight half-human earth-colored creatures were standing motionless there.

   "Stop!" Xia Duo quickly shouted in a low voice.

   He has heard the language of goblins with his own ears~www.readwn.com~ knows that goblins are also a kind of intelligent life, but compared to humans, their intelligence is somewhat low.

   But a small tribe with a number of nearly a hundred will always be a little smarter.

   "Captain Gibb, let Aiva come back."

"Yes."

   Gibb took out the bone whistle and blew it one long and one short. Soon Aiva appeared, and even called Marvel back.

   "Aiva, what's the situation with the goblin tribe now?" Xia Duo asked.

   "There are eight or ninety goblins in total, and more than half of them are old and young goblins. It may be a merger of several smaller groups."

   "Marvel, what did you find?"

   "Similar to what Iva explored, but I was an adventurer before and learned a little goblin language. I heard many goblins talk about orcs."

   Orc? Xia Duo's eyes lit up, "Are you sure they are talking about orcs?"

"I am sure."

   In this case, there is no need for Xia Duo to say it, everyone has already guessed that these goblins are probably driven out by the orcs in the deep forest.

   The orcs have gone down the mountain and even entered the Green Bead Forest.

   Now that Xia Duo and the others are far away from the orcs, it is very likely that this goblin tribe escaped.

   Almost subconsciously, a thought appeared in Xia Duo's mind-take the team back first!

   But this thought only appeared for less than a second, and it was denied by Xia Duo. It hurts morale to go back now. Do you still have to face the orcs in the future?

   "Aiva, Marvel, you search for the direction when the goblin came, go check it out and be safe!"

After    gave the order, Xia Duo was going to inform Sami and the others about the situation found here, but he did not expect that Sami’s news would arrive first!
