十七 Chapter 17 【Overnight In The Red Wilderness】
The poor worm was startled, and then she immediately huddled in a ball, staring at the red rock.
Xiaxia quickened her pace, and soon they passed over the rocks, and the poor worm finally saw the appearance of those goblins.
From the appearance, these guys are really sorry for the fearsome notoriety they have on Wildfire. Even at first glance, these goblin looks a little ridiculous.
The whole body is covered with green skin like a frog in a pond after the summer rain, pointed donkey ears, and a wide and thick nose like a carrot poked on his face. These guys have no hair or beards and a big head But the body is disproportionately thin, at least from their height of only about 130 centimeters, the proportion of the head and the body is obviously very uncoordinated. These little things cringe and hide behind the rock, with sharp and short rotten teeth in their mouths, staring at Charlie and the poor worm with a strange and strange look.
In particular, the puppets felt that the poor worms were fresh. The arms of these goblins were very long, and when they fell down, they were enough to exceed their knees.
At first glance at these guys, it's hard for you to have any fear of these things-first they look thin and thin, then they look poor and dirty.
Yes, these goblins are even more beggars than beggars. Only one of these guys hiding behind the rocks was wearing relatively complete clothes, and that was just a sack (I do n’t know where it came from) (Chosen), the sack cut three holes, and his head and arms could be extended out of it.
There is also a guy with a weapon in his hand. It is a hind limb bone of some large animal. The top of the bone is tied with a sharp stone to enhance its lethality. And this guy also nailed a set of "armor" with some messy things.
Oh god, what armor is this! Look at the materials of the armor: two pieces of broken copper, a pile of bark, and a few rotten wood, plus a thing similar to a rope net.
Poor Worm looked at it for a moment, wondering: "These guys are goblins?"
"Yes." Charlie nodded.
"But they don't look as terrible as the legend." Poor Worm was puzzled.
Xia Ya smiled: "There are also strong and weak distinctions in the goblins. What you see are homeless people who have no tribe. The really dangerous are those goblin tribes. Don't look at individual goblins weak and timid, but if you encounter Hundreds of these guys, and they were hungry for several days ... you know how powerful they are. "
It is true that after Chaya said that, the poor worms discovered that the eyes of these things are very similar to a group of terrestrial dogs living in the wild. They are a little cringe, a little timid, but they hide a little bit of fierceness and hostility.
Xiaxia ignored the dirty guys who followed her, and strode forward. Only when a few guys got closer, Xia stood still, stopped to pick up the stones, and threw them out in a loud intimidation while facing those guys-whenever this time, the goblins rushed away.
When it was a little bit dark, the poor worm noticed that the goblin wanderers who followed were gone.
They found a huge skeleton in the wilderness, which probably belonged to some large animal, but whether it was a bison or a camel or something else, the poor insects could not see it.
This huge pair of white bones is lying on the ground, and a pair of huge ribs are arranged symmetrically, and it is amazing that there is no trace of animal flesh on the whole skeleton ... obviously this is not the result of natural decay, but someone Removed its flesh completely and searched so cleanly.
When the cricket approached, the poor worm saw a trace of dense teeth on the skeleton.
"It's a goblin. Obviously only the goblin can get it and shave the meat so cleanly." Xia picked up a bone and measured it twice in his hand: "It seems that the time of death is not more than ten days, and the bones are still It's hard, and the water hasn't completely lost. "
"Why, I feel like you know these things well?" Poor Worm glanced at Charlie suspiciously.
Xia Xia did not answer this question, but took out the wolf skin of the bloodthirsty wolf directly, and put it on the skeleton of this animal bone, just like a natural tent.
"We're sleeping here tonight." Xia decided.
Dinner is roast wolf meat-there is still some meat from that bloodthirsty wolf. Although the wolf meat was a bit sour and tough, it was tough to bite, but the poor worm was very tough.
Because he didn't care about complaining about the bad taste of wolf meat all night, he sat next to the campfire and bit the wolf meat, but he felt the surrounding wilderness clearly, and didn't know how many eyes were secretly staring at himself, those 觊觎His eyes were greedy, hungry, fierce, and timid.
Even, he seemed to clearly hear the sound of "guogu" swallowing from the dark wilderness. There was even a quack of grinding teeth-these sounds made the poor worm creepy.
它们 "They ... they are peeping at us." Poor bug intentionally reminded this careless earthworm, this earthworm seems to be terribly alert.
"I know." Charlie lay on her bones, holding her head, and closed her eyes, enjoying the warmth of the fire: "One on the left, two on the right, one each in front and back, and some movement in the distance ..."
Having said that, he turned over and faced the poor worm: "Relax, they will not come to provoke us for the time being. Goblins are very timid. They are a kind of cowardly creatures. They must be only when the quantity reaches a certain level. Will courage. The standard of goblins is that against two human warriors, more than twenty goblins must be in order to achieve an overwhelming victory. The goblins' brains are generally not too clever, and they judge the affairs of the standard It is also very simple: those who have weapons are samurai, and those who do not have weapons are civilians. Fortunately, you are wearing leather armor and I hold an axe, so these guys treat us as human warriors. So, they will definitely wait for the number Only when there are more than 20 people will launch an attack. "
怎么 "How is it possible?" Poor Worm didn't believe: "If it takes so long to deal with two human warriors, then why have I heard that many caravans are also attacked by goblins?"
"That was a rumor." Charlie was disdainful. "On wildfire, rumors are always the most popular thing. In fact, goblins are not as scary as you think ... although they are also annoying, at least not as scary as the legend. Most of the legends about how terrible goblins are made by human beings. Especially, according to what I know, many terrible legends about wildfire are made intentionally by some large business groups. In this way, Everyone is afraid of the danger on the wildfire. Everyone dare not take this business way, only they dare to set up a caravan trade! Hum ... "
"But ... I heard that these goblins would catch people, then eat them, grind bones into flour, knit fur into blankets, and boil fat into oil ..." Poor worm's teeth were fighting.
"These may be true. For them, human beings are aliens. Do we humans treat cows and sheep like this? Is there anything strange?" Charlie yawned: "But the truth is, there are very few goblins Attacks on armed human groups. There are indeed many humans who died in the hands of the goblins on the wildfire, but most of them were bold and courageous. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is holding on to luck and is trying to make a fortune and take risks The small caravans of goods that cross the off-road fireland have no money to hire mercenaries to protect them. As a result, once they encounter a goblin, they will naturally be unlucky. "
"But you said the goblin had to wait so long for two people to attack ..."
"I'm talking about a samurai, you fool." Charlie shook her head. "Goblins are daring to attack human civilians. But now to them, we are human warriors! Understand? We carry weapons, they Think of us as those adventurers and mercenary groups. The ground elves on the wildfire have eaten many human adventurer masters, so they have learned to be cautious. If we didn't carry weapons, they would have swarmed up already! "
"But ..."
"Rest assured, this is just the edge of the goblin ground. There are no big goblin tribes around, so we must gather twenty goblin warriors to deal with us, I'm afraid they have to wait a long time. Those stray goblins dare not provoke us. Sleep peacefully ... I know better than you here, rest assured, even if it is no matter what, I will not make fun of my life. "Charlie rolled over.
"..." Poor worm lay for a while, and the terrible sounds brought by the cold wind in the wilderness still scared her. For a while, she couldn't help it: "I ... can I rely on you to be closer? This ... Well, it's still a bit cold here. "
Xia Xia said nothing, but the poor worm waited for a while, and finally took the initiative to lie down and lay down beside Xia. There is still such a smell of earth in the body of this earthworm, but the hot and dry feeling seems to make the poor worm feel solid.
Of course, of course, more importantly, his perverted aesthetics don't have to worry the poor worm to be rude to himself.
