On the Seven Towers

Xiao Chen took Ye Zi and Zhang Sicheng to a place less than a hundred meters away from the gate of the camp. He took Shi Hao's telescope and carefully observed what was going on in the camp. Shi Hao was left at his previous position, preparing to snipe.

The five goblin shamans dug a large formation on the ground between the five pillars, and then retreated to the edge of the pillars. After a while, a burst of drums sounded in the camp, and the drums were chaotic and disorderly. But it has a wild atmosphere.

The goblins in the entire camp were instructed by the sound of drums, and they all came out from every corner of the camp and gathered around the square. Although the goblins were noisy and chaotic, and even had several fights, Xiao Chen found that they had obvious class distinctions.

The tallest and strongest goblins stood closest to the pillar. These goblins were all wearing straw clothes and carrying weapons. Most of them had short spears, some also had swords and axes, and even wore simple leather armor. They should be tribesmen. warriors inside.

They are followed by women and children among the goblins. The number of children is much greater than that of women, indicating that these goblins have strong reproductive capabilities. The clothes worn by female goblins are often much shabbier than those of warriors, and many of them are even half-clothed. The little goblins were basically naked, with their yellow-green bodies exposed, running around all over the place, but no one dared to run within the range of the five pillars. On the outermost side were some old and weak goblins. From their positions, they could hardly see clearly what was going on in the middle of the square.

The drumming stopped, and the buzzing of the many goblins whispering to each other also subsided. A group of goblins walked on the main road connecting the square to the depths of the camp. The appearance of these goblins was completely different from the mob that had gathered before. Most of them were wearing complete leather armor, holding spears in their hands, and marched in two neat lines. The goblin in the lead looked quite old, and his skin was already damaged. It turned dark green, with a high crown made of animal bones on its head, a straw robe dyed blue, and a necklace of rough gems hanging around its neck. He was holding a wooden stick in his hand. The wooden stick was a bit like a torch, but what flashed on top was not a flame, but a fist-sized gem with blood-colored mist inside.

"Here they come! It's them indeed." Xiao Chen saw that behind the group of goblins, there were several depressed people with their upper bodies tied up. They also walked out under the intimidation of the goblin warriors' short spears.

"It seems that there are more than just us." Although Ye Zi didn't have a telescope, he found that more people came out than expected.

"Professor Lin, Zhao Rui and Li Tianrui, and two local people." Xiao Chen saw through the telescope that these people were more or less injured, with dried blood on their faces and bodies. It seemed that they After being caught by goblins, he suffered a lot.

Professor Lin walked in the front. After all, he was old and frightened, so he stumbled when he walked. His student Zhao Rui also seemed to be hit hard, his eyes were dull and confused. On the other hand, the soldier Li Tianrui was being pressed away while still looking around, as if he was looking for an opportunity to escape.

"Aren't we going to take action now?" Ye Zi lay beside Xiao Chen, staring at the camp, and asked anxiously.

"It's not yet time, we have to wait for Shi Hao to shoot." Xiao Chen took out the scroll from his bag and held it in his hand, "He is a trained warrior after all, and we have to trust his ability to judge opportunities. "

The old goblin shaman stopped on the sidelines. The warriors behind him pressed the five humans towards the five pillars, untied the ropes from their upper bodies, then crossed their hands behind their backs and tied them to the pillars. Li Tianrui struggled for a few times and was punched in the stomach by a goblin warrior. He was so painful that he couldn't stand up. He cursed a few times and finally caused the goblin warrior to tie a rope around his neck, making him unable to move at all.

After binding everyone, five shamans came up and cut their shirts with knives, exposing their chests. Several people screamed. Zhao Rui screamed very loudly: "I don't want to die here, I don't want to die in the hands of these barbaric monsters. Someone come and save me." He saw Li Tianrui still struggling and shouted to him: "Li Tianrui, you , Aren’t you a soldier? Find a way! I can’t just die like this.”

Li Tianrui turned his head around with difficulty and said bitterly: "I can't move my neck, what can I do?"

"You, this is how you become a soldier and how you protect us?"

"Ahem... What time has it been? Don't make any noise. We are tied here, and the goblins have surrounded us on three levels inside and three outside. Unless a large group of people come to rescue us, we can only accept our fate. Xiao Zhao, don’t blame Xiao Li, there’s no point in making noise now. Ahem, it’s better to see what kind of tricks these goblins can do.” Professor Lin didn’t have much energy, so his words barely reached the ears of the other two.

But Zhao Rui seemed not to have heard and continued to shout: "There are also Zhang Sicheng, Ye Zi and Xiao Chen. One of them is the captain, and the other two came up with bad ideas and insisted on exploring the situation of the goblins. Bastards, bastards! All of them! It was them who caused it.”

Li Tianrui and Professor Lin knew that talking more at this time would be in vain, so they stopped talking to Zhao Rui and moved their eyes away, letting him scold him.

The two people on the opposite side were attracted by Zhao Rui's shouting. One of them was a middle-aged man who looked a little old. He was dressed like the guide of the expedition team before. He must be a hunter nearby. He looked at Zhao Rui, who looked like he was crazy, with some pity, and then closed his eyes and began to pray. The other man looked less than 30 years old, with dark red hair and light green eyes. His skin was a little pale, and he wore clothes that were much more decent than the hunters. He wore a light gray cotton short coat on his upper body and dark blue pants on his lower body. He looked at Zhao Rui and cursed with surprise, as if he had forgotten even the fear.

The goblins didn't give Zhao Rui much chance to make trouble. He didn't curse for a few words before two goblin warriors ran over and hit him with two sticks. Zhao Rui screamed a few times, and soon he only had the strength to hum, and he didn't dare to shout anymore.

Ten strong goblin warriors surrounded the old goblin who led the group and walked to the stone platform in the middle of the pillar. The old goblin stood in front of the stage, first looking around at the goblins surrounding the entire square, and then his eyes looked at the five tied humans one by one. No matter whether they were earthlings or locals, they all lowered their heads and dared not look at him when they were stared at by the old goblin's deep green eyes.

The old goblin nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly raised the wooden stick in his hand into the air and began to chant loudly. The goblins in the square knelt down one after another, with their heads touching the ground. The old goblin sang in a strange tone, shook the wooden stick in his hand, and danced to a strange beat with his feet. Gradually, a light green water ball appeared in the air. With the singing, dancing and shaking wooden stick, the water ball kept rolling and getting bigger and bigger. Until it was several times bigger than the old goblin's body, the old goblin used the wooden stick to lead the water ball to the stone platform, and it fell on the platform, breaking into a pool of green water, flowing down the stone platform, and flowing into the pre-dug pattern.

The pattern was filled with green water, emitting a bright green light. The old goblin seemed to have spent a lot of effort, and he began to pant while leaning on his wooden stick. He waved his hand in front of the stone platform, and the five shamans took out their respective daggers and walked towards the five tied sacrifices.

"Oh no! Are they going to take action?" Xiao Chen looked back nervously at the height behind him, why didn't Shi Hao shoot?

And at this moment, three gunshots were heard in succession.

It's not that Shi Hao didn't want to shoot, but he hadn't found an opportunity. When Xiao Chen went down the mountain, he told him that if the hostages captured by his side appeared in the camp, he should prepare to snipe the leader of the goblins and create a scene of leaderlessness.

When the old goblin appeared, Shi Hao saw from his pomp that he must be an extraordinary figure in the goblin tribe. Later, when he saw him standing in the middle of the field, the other goblins actually knelt down, and they thought he was the best target. But the old goblin had been surrounded and protected by goblin warriors since he entered Shi Hao's sight. At night without scopes and night vision goggles, Shi Hao was not sure to hit the old goblin who was moving all the time. Later, when the old goblin sang and danced to perform magic, although he left his guards, the strange dance moves were too fast, and Shi Hao still didn't dare to shoot. Until the spell was completed and the old goblin was panting with his wooden stick, Shi Hao knew that the opportunity had finally come!

The unknown spell seemed to be completed perfectly. Shi Hao vaguely saw that the old goblin's tired face showed a relieved smile. This was the moment when the old goblin was most relaxed.

He shot without hesitation.

Three points in a straight line, followed by the feeling to press the trigger.

The first shot.

A ball of blood burst out on the right shoulder of the old goblin, his body fell backwards involuntarily, and the wooden stick in his hand also slipped out of his hand. Shi Hao secretly said that he was unlucky, slightly moved the muzzle and pressed the trigger again.

The second shot.

With a bang, the old goblin's crown was shattered in the air, but it did not hit the target. Shi Hao cursed in his heart, damn, I was nervous. He vaguely knew that he only had one chance. If the old goblin fell to the ground, he would fall behind the stone platform, and there would be no way to deal with him. Shi Hao pressed the gun down a little, and said secretly: "God bless."

The third gunshot.

God still favored Shi Hao. The bullet shot out from the muzzle, instantly penetrated the old goblin's cheek and flew out of the back of his head. When the old goblin fell to the ground, the gem chain on his chest seemed to be triggered by some mechanism, and belatedly formed a translucent green shield, covering his body inside.

The old goblin fell, and the guards around him suddenly became chaotic. Some wanted to hug him, some wanted to grab the scepter, and several shamans who were going to kill the sacrifice also rushed over. The goblins outside were so scared that they screamed and ran around. Goblins of all sizes pushed and squeezed each other, and the whole square was in chaos.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen immediately stood up, took the scroll in his hand, and said to Zhang Sicheng: "It's our turn!"
