Mercenaries and Adventurers

Zhao Ji thought about whether he should find some way to clean up these goblins, but he was a little worried because he had never fought with goblins before, so he didn't know whether these little green-skinned things were difficult or not.

After careful consideration, Zhao Ji decided to wait and see, try to follow these goblins secretly as much as possible, hoping to follow them to find the goblin settlement.

Zhao Ji, who made up his mind, hid himself better, and at the same time secretly observed the goblins not far below.

The goblins were noisy, and this was obviously a place for them to replenish water. The little leader among them drank the muddy water first, and then the other goblins rushed to grab the water.

All the things they were holding and carrying were thrown away one after another, and you competed to put your head to the mouth of the small water hole to drink water. Seeing some goblins randomly throwing their hard-earned prey on the wet muddy ground, the strong goblin who is the little leader screamed, and the belt on his hand twitched the goblin who threw the prey at will. Forest.

"Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow wow!" While lashing out at some disobedient goblins who only knew to rush for water, the strong goblin opened his sharp mouth and yelled something loudly.

Zhao Ji couldn't understand what they were saying, but he noticed the obvious status relationship among the goblins. The high-status goblins could beat the low-status goblins at will without worrying that the other goblins would resist together.

Obviously those few goblins rushing up together could definitely overwhelm the strong goblins, but they didn't do that, they just ran around the water hole indiscriminately.

As the goblins ran wildly to avoid the whipping, a few goblins ran out of the water drinking area without thinking.

Zhao Ji squinted his eyes, it was a good opportunity, but he did not act directly, but observed the reaction of most of the goblins who were still drinking water. Zhao Ji found that the goblins who were full of muddy water were lying down near the water hole one after another, and smeared their exposed green skin with the mud they had trampled on the ground. Only in the case of goblins.

And the little leader Goblin also grabbed a vole that fell on the ground, washed it briefly with the muddy water in the wooden bucket, put it in his mouth, and bit the dead mouse with his mouthful of fangs. Vole tail.

Grinning silently, he really couldn't accept eating animals like voles. Although during the Harvest Festival, there were shops and stalls that offered grilled voles, but Zhao Ji just felt disgusted when he saw them, and he didn't even have any idea of ​​eating them.

Seeing the goblin slowly eating the tail of the field mouse happily, Zhao Ji couldn't stand it anymore. Of course, the goblins looked like they were going to take a break here, which gave him a chance.

Zhao Ji slowly crawled backwards, and when the bushes obscured the possible sight of the goblins below, he got up, bowed his body and quietly chased the goblins who had just escaped.

The ordinary goblins who escaped from the whipping of the strong goblins did not run far. They were scattered one by one lying in the lower reaches of the stream not far from the water hole, with their buttocks pouted, and their mouths brought to the weak stream, sucking small mouthfuls. muddy water.

While drinking water, the goblins also picked up small stones or large pieces of moss by the stream, looking for insects and earthworms that might exist below.

Zhao Ji carefully came to a place further downstream, and then observed the outermost goblin. Zhao Ji adjusted his position, and slowly circled to the direction behind the goblin.

Gently pulled out the dagger, Zhao Ji gestured silently, feeling a little unsafe, after thinking about it, he slowly pulled out the long sword, holding it carefully with his right hand.

Step by step, he approached the goblin who was rummaging for insects. When Zhao Ji was about two meters away from the goblin, he stepped on his legs and approached the goblin suddenly. The long sword in his right hand was raised high. , followed by a heavy chop.

Zhao Ji had been preparing for this blow for a long time, and he hit the goblin's head straight with a 'puchi' sound.

The goblin's head was smashed by the sharp and heavy sword, red and white splashed out from the split head, and he died immediately.

The dead goblin didn't even notice Zhao Ji, and died silently while drinking water and picking up insects.

Zhao Ji was quite excited, this goblin was the first humanoid creature he killed. The left hand hurriedly covered his mouth to prevent himself from laughing proudly and alerting the other goblins.

Zhao Ji squatted beside the killed goblin, pulled the goblin over with his long sword, and carefully observed the newly dead goblin.

Goblins are covered in green, with very little hair on their heads. They have a pair of big yellow eyes. At this time, the pupils in the dead goblin's eyes have slowly expanded. The goblin's nose is a bit small. Unlike humans with high nose bridges, goblins' noses are more like two slits standing on the face. Zhao Ji also saw that the goblin has a pair of curved ears that look treacherous and cunning. The so-called curved ears are ears that are longer than humans, but the upward sharp corners of the ears do not extend straight upwards, but resemble The curved horns generally curve toward the rear.

Use the dagger to poke the goblin's mouth. The goblin has a mouth full of sharp and small teeth, and their tongue is also thin and long. Looking at it as a whole, it is clear that it is a creature that mainly eats meat.

Zhao Ji found that the neck of the goblin is very thin, even thinner than that of a human child. Of course, the head of the goblin is not very big, at least much smaller than that of a human, and the proportion of the brain to the body is too large. Small, indicating that they are not very smart.

Down the neck, Zhao Ji did not conduct a more detailed inspection, but poked the goblin's chest with a dagger a few times to make sure that the front of the goblin's chest could be easily pierced by a metal sharp weapon.

Pulling away the vines and grass ropes wrapped around the goblin, Zhao Ji saw the goblin's genitals, which seemed to be a male goblin. That's right, male creatures usually go out to hunt, unless the female creatures are bigger and more powerful.

Goblins have different toes than humans, they don't have wide soles, but fewer toes are much bigger than humans. This may be more convenient for them to move on the ground in complex terrain environments, but it greatly sacrifices their running ability.

When Zhao Ji saw this, he understood that the goblin's short legs and the shape of the soles of the feet, which were inconvenient to step on the ground and exert force, must not be able to run like humans. This made him feel relieved. In the subsequent hunting, even if Zhao Ji couldn't beat the goblins, he could escape from the possible pursuit of the goblins.

The corpse was placed here first, and Zhao Ji used a few pieces of moss that grew surprisingly long by the stream to put on the wound on the goblin's head, to slightly cover up the smell of blood.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Ji left here and sneaked towards the next goblin.

-------------

Soon, Zhao Ji followed the weak stream and approached another goblin through the lush bushes beside the stream.

This goblin was digging out the wet mud by the stream, and every time it got a palm of mud, it groaned excitedly and smeared the mud on its naked body that was not covered by the vine rope.

Zhao Ji didn't know the intention of these goblins, it might have something to do with the biting mosquitoes everywhere in this wilderness. Goblins don't know how to collect insect repellent herbs to make ointment to drive away annoying little flying insects, so they can only use mud to cover their bodies.

Zhao Ji himself used the juice squeezed from a kind of insect-repellent plant in the swamp in the south of the city to prevent insects. When he was hunting slime monsters in the swamp, he collected a lot of this plant. At that time, he and Weltz herdsman squeezed out the sap of this plant and collected it in jars. As for the dry **** without moisture, they added it to the bonfire in the camp to generate smoke to expel the camp. mosquitoes.

Afterwards, until Zhao Ji was about to leave Kendall City after the harvest festival, Wiltz's shepherd finally went through some tinkering and added soybean oil into the juice, so that the insect repellent plant juice can last for a long time saved.

The two of them divided the harvested juice in half, Zhao Ji's share was brought with him this time, and Wiltz's share, he said, would be used as a reward for the work of reclaiming the farmland in the spring of next year. Good hands, save them from mosquito bites.

----------

Zhao Ji was still the same as before, he approached the goblins secretly, preparing to attack them again.

Because he checked the goblin's body just now, Zhao Ji planned to cut off the goblin's head in a sudden attack this time, to see if it would be easier to kill them, after all, the goblin's skull is still quite hard Yes, if Zhao Ji is afraid to attack the skull, it will not be good to bring more wear and tear to his long sword.

Attacking the neck, as long as it can break the cervical spine, even if it can't kill the goblin, it can directly paralyze all the mobility of the opponent.

Do whatever comes to mind.

Zhao Ji suddenly came from behind the goblin, and while the goblin was busy looking for suitable mud, he slashed horizontally with his long sword, and only then did he react when he struck with the sword, and turned his head to look behind him. on the goblin's neck.

With a bang, Zhao Ji didn't expect the goblin's neck to be so hard. His sword failed to completely break the goblin's neck, but was embedded in its cervical spine.

Of course, this is also a fatal blow. Blood gushed from the severed place, and the goblin's yellow eyes immediately lost their spirit and dimmed.

Zhao Ji put his foot on the goblin's body so that he could draw out the long sword conveniently.

Zhao Ji didn't even look at the dead goblin. Zhao Ji just covered the **** neck of the goblin with a few pieces of thick moss to cover up the strong smell of blood.

After flicking the blood on the sword, Zhao Ji felt sick to his stomach. He kept explaining to himself that these goblins are legal to hunt. They often harass Doral Forest Village, and every human being should kill them. monster.

After a while, Zhao Ji clenched his long sword again, leaned down, and touched the next goblin scattered outside the large army again.

-------------

According to the previous method, Zhao Ji killed a few careless goblins without any surprises, and then returned to the observation point at a high place where he had been staying before.

Getting down again, Zhao Ji looked at the remaining less than ten goblins below.

Contrary to Zhao Ji's expectations, he thought that the goblins here should be more impatient or send someone to look for them after not seeing several goblins back for so long.

As a result, these goblins didn't seem to have any vigilance. After they were covered with mud, they fell asleep near the water hole. Even the goblin who seemed to be the little leader was the same. One goblin even lay down on the muddy ground, using its back as a pillow for the strong goblin to rest on.

After they fell asleep, they purred one after another, and their sleeping positions were also different. A goblin even dipped his feet into the water hole and let everyone drink the water for his feet, right? But didn't he also drink the same water?

Zhao Ji hesitated whether to sneak down and slaughter them one by one while they were asleep. Just when Zhao Ji was thinking, he found that not all the goblins below were asleep.

While the other goblins were asleep, a thinner goblin secretly hugged a field mouse that had been placed in the prey pile and bit it vigorously by the tail. Judging by the way it gnaws vigorously, it seems that it has never eaten a field mouse.

Zhao Ji picked up a small stone from the grass and threw it far away at the goblin who was stealing the field mouse.

Slap.

The goblin, who thought he had been discovered, trembled, closed his eyes, and pricked up his ears.

After there were no other goblins roaring around, it opened its eyes again. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Zhao Ji threw another stone at it.

Slap.

This time, the goblin noticed the direction the stone came from, it was up! 'But why do stones always fly out of it to interrupt it from eating the delicious voles tail? '

Zhao Ji shook the surrounding grass.

Looking at the swaying grass above, the goblin at the bottom stood up, holding a thick tree stick in his hand, and walked carefully towards the high hill here.

‘It should be a rabbit, but why does the rabbit spit stones and hit it? '

‘Come here, come here, you must think I’m some kind of small animal, when it gets close, you can kill it with a single sword. '

The curious and daring goblin climbed halfway up the higher hill by himself. But before it got close to the swaying grass, Zhao Ji leaped out of the grass, holding swords in both hands, and slashed the goblin's neck.

This goblin only let out a short "crack." Zhao Ji cut off half of his shoulder from the neck, and died directly.

When its entire head fell to the ground, its mouth was still opening and closing in surprise, and its eyes were wide open, staring straight at Zhao Ji's figure.

But Zhao Ji didn't have time to close the eyes that stared at him. It was just a short "ga." Just now, all the goblins below woke up.

It seemed that although they were all asleep, they all woke up immediately with a slight sound of wind and grass.

When Zhao Ji looked at the group of goblins below, the awakened goblins under the hill were also looking around for any danger. The tall little goblin leader just raised his head, looked towards the high hill, and saw each other with Zhao Ji who was looking down.

Oops, found out.
