Using the cover of the grass, they instantly covered a distance of 100 meters and pounced directly into the unsuspecting goblin archer formation.
Chapter 71 Useless Goblin
"Awoo!"
Screams echoed throughout the room.
Before the archers who were giving Chen Xu a gua sha treatment could react, their throats were bitten off by this group of murderous stars who attacked from behind.
Their fragile bodies were no match for the wolf pack, and their formation collapsed instantly.
Without the suppression of long-range firepower, the pressure on Chen Xu was greatly reduced.
He looked at the goblin leader, who was terrified and about to turn and run away, and a smile crept onto his lips.
"Run? Did you ask about the hook in my hand?"
"Whoosh!"
A dark shadow flew out and precisely hooked onto the leader's obese body.
"Come here."
Chen Xu suddenly pulled.
"what!"
The goblin leader let out a scream and was forcibly dragged in front of Chen Xu.
"boom!"
A large shield slammed directly into its face, killing it instantly.
As the leader was trampled underfoot, the voice channel echoed with complaints from the crowd.
"This is the goblin army? Is this all?"
"It's really weak, it has no value at all."
While finishing off the low-health monsters, Peak said disdainfully.
"At least that pig-headed man can parry and counterattack, he has some tactical skills, but these greens just yell and offer themselves up for death."
"normal".
Chen Xu stepped on the leader and laughed.
"So this is the setting for these kinds of creatures? Although they are weak individually, their numbers are overwhelming. I guess it's a benefit that the world has created for us, sending us a wave of money."
Xu Tian: "..."
The goblins' defeat was inevitable, thanks to the advance of the wolf pack and the players.
The once bustling battlefield gradually fell silent, leaving only a scene of devastation.
Seeing that all was lost, the few goblins that had managed to survive threw down their weapons in terror and scrambled away into the depths of the forest.
"Want to run?"
A smile played on Feng Xue's lips as she sat atop the stone tower. Instead of ordering a pursuit, she gave a low growl to the wolves that were preparing to pounce.
"Stop, let them go."
Although the wolves were puzzled, they obeyed the order and stopped, even deliberately making way for the few panicked green monsters.
The goblins, as if granted a pardon, cried out urgently and scrambled into the dense jungle.
Xu Tian shook off the dark green blood that stained his spear. The flame at the tip of the spear gradually died down. He looked at the figures that disappeared into the forest, a knowing look flashing in his eyes.
"These brainless idiots' first instinct when fleeing for their lives is to go back to their lair."
He turned his head and met the gaze of the wind and snow on the tower.
Feng Xue nodded slightly. Without saying anything more, she leaned down and whispered a few words to the alpha wolf beside her.
The alpha wolf let out a whimper, and then its ten companion gray wolves silently disappeared into the jungle, following the scent.
The battlefield was quickly cleared.
Players began to evacuate through Ender Chests, as the quest to find human villages was still ongoing and the lure of gold remained.
Before jumping into the box, "Life is Like the First Meeting" didn't forget to shout in the channel.
"Old Cat, remember to wake me up once you find the coordinates of the goblin's lair. I'm heading back to continue searching for people."
"Don't worry, I'll never forget my brothers when there's meat to eat."
Soon, only Xu Tian, Feng Xue, Chen Xu, and Dian Feng remained on the noisy battlefield, along with dozens of wolves responsible for guarding them.
Xu Tian, having no mission of his own, naturally stayed behind to check on the progress, while Feng Xue needed to receive information from the wolf pack at any time.
Everyone turned their attention back to Clara, the girl who had been quietly waiting inside the defensive line and had witnessed the entire massacre.
Clara appeared somewhat nervous under the watchful eyes of so many well-equipped and still-powerful individuals.
Fengxue stepped forward, her tone gentle.
"Clara, you're safe now. Those green monsters won't hurt you anymore. Would you like to leave with us? Once you become one of us, you'll be protected."
Clara looked up, her eyes filled with longing, but that was quickly replaced by worry.
"Thank you... But my people, the village chief and the others are still hiding in the mountains. I must go back. I want to know what everyone thinks."
"understand".
Xu Tian took over the conversation, his voice steady.
“We will go back with you. If your people are willing, we can take everyone away to a safer place with more food.”
"really?"
Clara's eyes lit up instantly, and her voice trembled with excitement.
“Great, I’ll show you the way.”
Led by Clara, the group traversed the tangled meadows and entered a deeper, more secluded primeval forest.
After walking for about half an hour, we came to a shady hillside. Pushing aside the vines and withered grass, a hidden cave entrance was revealed.
The cave was dimly lit, and a damp smell filled the air.
With the stable light source provided by the [Flame Enhancement] spear in Xu Tian's hand, the scene inside the cave came into view.
Dozens of emaciated, ragged humans huddled on the rocks, most with their eyes closed, whether asleep or conserving energy, it was unclear. Among them were many young children, huddled in their mothers' arms, so thin they were nothing but skin and bones.
"Sister Clara".
A little boy, about five or six years old, was the first to notice the commotion. He stumbled over and grabbed Clara's leg, his voice trembling with tears.
"You're back, I'm so hungry..."
The crowd inside the cave stirred, struggling to their feet, their eyes wary yet filled with a faint hope as they looked toward the cave entrance.
An elderly man with almost entirely white hair and a face etched with the marks of time and worry, leaning on a crooked wooden cane, shakily stepped out from the crowd.
He is the village chief, Jesse.
Upon seeing the several powerful and strangely equipped strangers behind Clara, his cloudy old eyes instinctively rose in alertness, only to be overwhelmed by deep weariness and helplessness.
"Clara..."
Jesse's voice was dry and hoarse.
"Have you found any food? No one else has come back."
Before he could finish speaking, his gaze swept over Clara's empty hands and the new abrasions on her body, and he understood immediately, closing his eyes in pain.
Clara's eyes reddened, and she lowered her head.
"I'm sorry, village chief, I encountered goblins and couldn't find any food. These benefactors saved me."
She stepped aside, making way for Xu Tian and the others.
"If it weren't for them, I might already be..."
Upon hearing this, Jesse's body trembled, and he opened his eyes again, looking solemnly at Xu Tian and the others.
He tried to straighten his hunched back, placed his right hand on his chest, and performed a simple greeting.
"Thank you all, brave warriors, for extending a helping hand and saving this poor child. I, Jesse, on behalf of the remaining villagers of Blackrock Village, express my gratitude to you all."
Feng Xue quickly stepped forward to help him up.
"No need for such formalities, sir."
Jesse straightened up, cautiously examining the group before him, especially their sophisticated armor, which clearly didn't belong to this barren world, and their weapons that subtly gleamed. Hesitantly, he spoke.
Chapter 72: Another group of assassins?
"Forgive my boldness, but may I ask where you brave warriors come from and what brings you here?"
There was a subtle pause in the atmosphere.
Peak, Wind and Snow, and Chen Xu all turned their gazes to Xu Tian, who was standing a little behind them, their eyes saying, "It's your turn."
Xu Tian was taken aback.
Why are you looking at me?
Peak grabbed his shoulder and said in a low voice.
"Hey, Tianxia, didn't you design the game's background? These crucial plot negotiation moments definitely need an official like you to handle things, right? Are you expecting us to go? What if we say the wrong thing and lower the NPC's favorability, causing the recruitment to fail? Then all the gold coins I've already earned will just disappear!"
Feng Xue and Chen Xu nodded in agreement.
Xu Tian: "..."
He cursed inwardly: I know nothing, this is the real world.
Xu Tian was speechless, but he couldn't refuse the crowd's demands. He could only take a breath and step forward, facing the curious and nervous gazes of Jesse and all the villagers.
"Village Chief Jessie".
Xu Tian's voice echoed clearly in the cave, carrying a calm and steady tone.
