My mod ruined the otherworldly art style.

Walker, his smile fading, turned and shouted at his chaotic subordinates:

"What's so funny? Are the gatekeepers all feeding pack animals now?"

"Get back to the barricade and keep watch! If you whimper again, I'll kick your asses!"

The soldiers' laughter abruptly stopped, and they hurriedly dispersed to continue their duties.

A gossipy heart was abruptly extinguished.

Walker turned around.

His large, bell-like eyes swept over Calvin's tired face and Leah's red-rimmed eyes.

Finally, it stopped at old Holm's hunched yet taut spine.

Suddenly, a fist slammed into the granite wall, sending rubble tumbling down.

"Damn! This story is even more ridiculous than the bard's fairy tales!"

An excited Walker suddenly grabbed Calvin by the collar of his leather armor and pulled him close to him:

"But I used to be your colleague who guarded the mine! So I believe you."

"When dawn breaks, I will personally kick open the gates of the lord's manor and report this matter."

He abruptly released his grip and put his arm around Calvin's shoulder again.

"As for now... let's get you drunk! That'll stop you from having that long face all this time!"

Walker, ever the hearty fellow, burst into laughter again, leaving the caravan members speechless.

This man, who was once the captain's comrade-in-arms, is still the same as ever.

Even if the captain offended the nobles,

Consequently, he was demoted to guard the city gate, but he did not complain at all.

Instead, his relationship with the captain deepened, and they became close friends.

As the caravan officially entered Iron City,

This town, which has enjoyed 20 years of peace, is about to experience its own undercurrents.

Rumors, whispered among the guards and caravans, began to circulate in the tavern in the stillness of the night.

This brought Lu Chen a sustained low-frequency high-quality emotional value.

Every few minutes, he could see his creative power increasing slightly.

This kind of continuous income,

It relieved the stress that came from a big meal half the night.

This allowed him to drift peacefully into sleep.

at the same time,

Of the three bandits who stormed off in anger, Hawkeye's ears suddenly twitched.

He pulled hard on the reins and stopped.

Some questions:

"Second Master, I heard a thumping sound over there."

The bald second-in-command, who was also holding the reins, perked up his ears.

After listening carefully for a while,

A sinister smile appeared on his face.

"Hmph, I've been looking for you everywhere."

"The sound coming from the forest must be from the group that helped us rob them."

"It seems they intend to set up camp here."

Feeling that he had guessed the answer, the bald man waved to his two subordinates.

"Shh! Stay close, we'll sneak over under the cover of darkness without alerting those bastards."

The blind man following behind was taken aback upon hearing this. His large, copper-bell-shaped eyes locked onto the front, and his expression became serious and earnest.

He gave the second-in-command a thumbs-up in approval:

"I understand, I'll rush over there right away. Wait for my good news!"

With a whoosh,

The seemingly simple-minded blind man displayed assassin skills to their fullest extent.

In the blink of an eye, he had dashed more than ten meters away.

The second-in-command, regaining his senses, was horrified by what he saw and quickly reached out to stop him.

"Wait, I meant to tiptoe over, not rush over recklessly, there's danger over there..."

Before the second-in-command could finish speaking,

The hard-of-hearing blind man had already disappeared into the jungle.

That speed was so fast that it left everyone else far behind.

"Tsk~, damn it, Hawkeye, the plan has changed. We need to hurry and catch up, or the blind man might ruin things."

The cursing second-in-command picked up the giant axe in his hand.

Following the spot where the blind man disappeared, they began a frantic sprint with Hawkeye.

They disappeared together into the dense jungle.

the other side,

The blind man who led the charge was using his superior sight and stealth abilities...

In the dark, he was like a fish in water.

To get a better view, he even climbed a tall tree and began to move around by maneuvering through the gaps between the canopies.

Quickly approach the location where the sound originated.

As they got closer, the thumping sounds from the forest grew louder and clearer.

"Hmm, is that the place?"

The blind man's eyes were wide open, and he muttered to himself.

Through the scattered moonlight.

We discovered an open space about 100 meters ahead, with fallen trees scattered all over the ground.

Further away is a cave.

Many green figures were coming and going.

They were using the mine to cut down trees while simultaneously building a crooked camp.

Such an unusual scene,

The blind man was so shocked that his breathing stopped and his pupils dilated violently.

He unconsciously tightened his grip on the dagger in his hand.

"Damn it, it's a goblin tribe, and their average level is all at level two." (Shock +4)

The blind man frowned deeply, sensing the seriousness of the situation.

Although he is severely hard of hearing and cannot hear the chatter and noise on the other end.

But the ability brought by super vision

We were able to see some of the situation inside the camp.

So once the existence of goblins was confirmed...

Just like the caravan, they understood that this place was a [Nest of Pregnancy].

It is filled with all kinds of monsters.

If your location is accidentally exposed, you will be in dire straits.

Thinking of this, the blind man decisively retreated.

Every step seemed taken with extreme caution.

But before he could get very far back,

Dorothy, who was commanding the goblins, noticed something was amiss.

A red dot appeared on her combat capability detection scope.

A line of information appeared.

[Warning: Human presence detected 150 meters to the west...]

The notification that appeared before her eyes excited the adorable Dorothy.

As expected of Father God, he truly possesses godlike precognitive abilities.

Before their own camp could even be built, those humans appeared.

Were they here to offer sacrifices?

Or are they looking for trouble?

In either case, they need to be captured.

"You miners, prey has come knocking! Get moving, all of you!"

"Whoever escapes will have to eat tree bark for dinner, Doro!"

Dorothy's scream woke up all the goblins.

Even Lu Chen, who was dozing in the dimensional rift, was startled awake by the sound.

He rubbed his eyes and looked through the projection screen.

The goblins, who had been logging, now had their eyes glowing red.

A foul-smelling tongue frantically licked the corners of its mouth.

Drops of saliva are dripping down from above.

Clearly, the goblins had long been tired of logging, and now they were eager to join the Queen's mobilization order.

Naturally, they would appear very excited.

They rushed out, howling and screaming.

The commotion startled the cautious blind man.

Even during his stealthy retreat, he couldn't help but tilt his head and look back.

At a glance, I spotted Dorothy, who stood out from the crowd.

Through the special visual power, the waterfall-like labels strike straight to the soul.

It was as if they were gazing into an abyss.

This terrified him so much that he was scared out of his wits.

I quickly canceled stealth mode.

It then switched to full-speed running mode.

In just over ten seconds, they appeared in the sight of the second-in-command and Hawkeye.

He was shouting desperately, "Second Master, this is a serious matter!"

"This is not a temporary foothold for local gangs at all, but a new breeding ground for them."

"There's a level 2 elite monster with 9 tags inside. Let's run!"

Upon hearing this, the second-in-command and Hawkeye, who were rushing over, paused in their tracks.

His face was filled with astonishment and surprise.

"What the heck!? A brooding nest? A monster with nine tags?"

"What exactly happened here?"

"Intelligence indicates that this place has been peaceful for the past 20 years, which is why we moved our camp here."

"In the end, we got tricked by the local gang again."

The indignant second-in-command gritted his teeth in anger.

He knew those treacherous fellows were unreliable.

They not only looted the caravan, but also provided false information.

They said the forest was very safe, and you could set up camp there without worry.

The idea was to make them and the Breeding Nest fight to the death, so that they could reap the benefits.

What a vicious plan!

No, we need to bring this intelligence back to the stronghold immediately, or the consequences will be unimaginable.

The bald guy was completely lost in his imagination.

They thought they had guessed the so-called truth.

In reality, this only deepened the misunderstanding.

When the blind man ran up to him, he gave him a thumbs-up without hesitation, as a guarantee.

"Well done, blind man, you deserve credit."

The blind man, who was running wildly, twitched his ears, his expression full of astonishment.

What followed was filled with grief, indignation, and resolve.

"What? You want me to attack?"

"To cover the rear, is that it?"

He muttered to himself, his large, round eyes filled with complex emotions.

But then I thought of the blood oath we swore when we became bandits.

But then I felt I shouldn't back down, otherwise people would look down on me after I die.

Thinking of this, the blind man flipped the dagger.

His rapidly moving body suddenly stopped, using the recoil to propel him toward the rapidly approaching goblins.

Even as he spoke, he didn't forget to give instructions for his final affairs:

"Second Master, Nightingale No. 9 from the Iron City [Velvet Rose] is skilled, has great technique, and most importantly, isn't expensive."

"I'll make sure you come here a few more times for me, brother. I'll be going now."

The blind man turned away with a flourish, leaving the two bewildered figures standing in the wind.
