Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

Chapter 28 Lizardmen in the Swamp

"Damn it, lizard man!" Kalad roared angrily, kicked up the spear on the ground, and the sharp spear point immediately pierced the abdomen of a giant lizard.

"I asked how these giant lizards attack us over and over again, but no goblin ever raises the alarm. It turns out you are the one causing trouble!"

Saurians, humanoids nearly as disliked as goblins, are in a state of near-constant war with their neighbors and other creatures. They marked their territories with cracked skulls and remains, or with hieroglyphics painted in blood or dung. Lizardfolk live in filth. The walls of its caverns are coated with grime, greasy secretions, and the detritus of their filthy feast.

In terms of intelligence, the intelligence of these creatures is only slightly higher than that of beasts, and cannot be compared with goblins at all. A person with enough eloquence and talent can still escape from the goblin's mouth, but facing the lizards and the monitor lizards they raise, the only way to survive is to fight to the death.

"This is the territory of these guys?!" Ivy erected a tower shield in front of Ron, blocking a lizard man's sharp claw attack, and Drayford immediately shot an arrow and injured his shoulder blade.

"It shouldn't be like this!" Victoria responded loudly, knocking over a monitor lizard with a hammer, "these guys' territory should be deeper in the swamp!"

The intelligence of the lizards was not enough for them to hear or speak Common Language. In response to Victoria's doubts, they just uttered a series of incomprehensible lizards and then retreated, leaving the giant lizards to block them. forward.

They didn't expect that they would be ambushed, and now that the situation was not good, they obviously wanted to escape.

"Want to escape?" Kalad smiled ferociously, waved his arm, and the spear came out of his hand, and a lizard man fell down in response.

The heavy spear pierced directly through his lower abdomen and pinned him to the ground.

"Chase me!" Seeing that all the giant lizards around him had been eliminated by Ron and the others, Kalad immediately wanted to catch up and kill the lizard man who was shot by Drivedo.

"Wait!" Ron stopped him quickly, "Let him go back!"

"What?! Was your head bitten by a giant lizard?"

"Let him go back, the blood will reveal his traces!" Ron pointed at the lizard man who was quickly disappearing in the woods. "We must eradicate the roots. With the best hunters, we will track down the lizard man's lair and remove it. They caught them all in one fell swoop!”

It would be fine if Ron invaded their territory. Ron had nothing to say about these lizard people doing this kind of thing. But this is obviously not the lizard people's hunting ground and they still want to attack them. It is obviously impossible not to kill them all.

We need to establish a stronghold here. Most of the refugees and merchants are ordinary people. Who can bear the lizard people coming here every day?

"What a great idea!" Kalad nodded in approval, walked over and pulled out his spear, "Go and gather the hunters!"

Without Ron and the others taking action, the warg had already rushed out and headed straight to the camp to report the news. Not long after, with a loud noise, a dozen hunters rushed over.

The terrain in the woods is complex, and the lizard people are born with discolored skin, which is not suitable for wolves to fight, so these hunters walk.

It is enough to leave the task of hunting for blood to the wargs.

"Going south." The warg guided all the way. When the sky turned bright, a dirty and muddy swamp appeared in front of everyone. "The lizard man entered it. The smell here is too messy. Next I will I can’t smell it anymore.”

"It doesn't matter, we can't run away from them!" Ron didn't care about the mud at the moment, and he and his companions followed a group of goblins to launch a carpet-like search, vowing to find the lizard man's hiding place.

"Boss! There's something going on here!"

Soon, a goblin hunter shouted loudly. He found a stone over one meter high with an unknown pattern painted on it with blood.

However, the hunter did not notice that the space behind him was obviously distorted, and it was quickly approaching him.

"Watch your back!"

Without much thought, Victoria took off the light crossbow from her back and fired an arrow.

A blood flower suddenly bloomed in the air.

But unfortunately, because of the protection of the lizard man's natural scales, Victoria's crossbow did not cause fatal injuries to it. The lizard man still waved its claws and scratched the hunter's skin.

Strange calls rang out from all directions, and a large number of lizards and the monitor lizards they raised rushed out from behind the trees and from the mud, surrounding them. The two groups met at hand-to-hand combat and immediately started fighting.

These lizard men are almost the same as beasts. Their bodies are protected by natural scales, and their attack methods are nothing more than claws and bites. Although these creatures are extremely brave, they are still quickly at a disadvantage against the relatively "well-equipped" goblins.

Ron hid in the shadow of Evita's shield, and from time to time inspired several flaming arrows to attack the lizard man while also observing carefully.

The lizard people have a simple tribal form. Capture the thief first and capture the king first. If you can defeat the leader first, the battle should be over quickly.

A distinctive lizard-man caught his attention.

This lizard man was not armed with bare hands, but was holding an old and somewhat rusty long sword. It was tall, mighty, and strong. Five goblin hunters attacked it, but made no progress.

The lizards understand the value of metal weapons and armor, and will fight for the right to own them. It is no wonder that the largest and toughest lizards will stand out and become the leaders of the tribe while owning these items.

"Karad, don't worry about those ordinary lizards!" Ron shouted, "The one holding the long sword is the leader!"

"I see!" Karad turned the handle of his spear upside down, knocked a bully lizard to the ground, and strode towards the lizard leader.

"Stupid thing, die!"

Although the lizard was very brave, he was still no match for the hobgoblin. In just half a minute, Karad sold a flaw, and when the lizard leader was about to cut the air with a sword, he turned around and stabbed the lizard leader's upper and lower jaws together with a "puff".

"That was a close call!" The hobgoblin drew out his dagger again and stabbed several bloody holes in the lizard leader's body in succession. He was willing to stop only after confirming that the other party was completely dead.

At this time, Ron had already gotten rid of the battle and was standing beside the blood-stained boulder, staring at a hole in the ground in a daze.

"What are you looking at? Aren't you going in?" Ivy came over curiously and looked at the hole with Ron.

"Look," Ron pointed at the messy footprints in the mud in front of him, "These three-fingered ones are the footprints of lizardmen, right?"

"Then who stepped on these?"
