Chapter 90: Close the door and beat the dog

Chapter 90: Close the door and beat the dog (three in one, six thousand words!)
【warn! 】

[A large group of adventurers is approaching the territory! ]

[Host, please prepare for battle quickly! ]

At ten o'clock that night.

Gu An received a reminder from the system in the stone hall. In front of him, under the throne, the mutated goblins stood on both sides with bright eyes, like loyal soldiers.

Third from the left: Fire Goblin, Ice Goblin, and Lustful Goblin.

Second from the right, the Swordsman Goblin and the Female Goblin.

Because the air also occupies a position, the formation looks a little weird and abrupt.

Among them, the Hellfire Goblin and the Ice Goblin have been upgraded to level 30 by Gu An, and the Swordsman Goblin is level 29.

This cost a total of two thousand nine hundred energies.

Considering the large number of adventurers and the need to fight on multiple fronts, he used the remaining spare money to create a new level 20 mutated goblin.

Of course, the necessary procedures before promoting employees are also followed.

Under the "encouragement" of the old method, the newly promoted male goblins were also grateful to the lord and wanted to repay his kindness by tying the knot.

Gu An was very pleased to have a new general under his command. The development of the territory was rising steadily.

However, the real name of the Male Goblin is not like this. Its real name should be "Magician Goblin".

Magic is linked to wisdom and faith, and is a special profession of human beings.

Perhaps because of this, after it became a mutated goblin, its body shape and appearance had some human characteristics.

Although not as obvious as Gu An, she is also frail, with a slightly human-like appearance, and walks and talks like a shy girl.

They are not at all as majestic, powerful, and ferocious as the Fire Goblins.

According to the system, when upgrading an ordinary goblin to a mutated goblin, it will be shaped into the appearance that you desire most.

This change may have occurred because the goblin originally wanted to be like this.

Although it is not clear what the situation is, the nickname given by Gu An is very appropriate, "Male Girl Goblin", there is no more standard adjective than this.

The Swordsman Goblin also agreed very much.

There is always an inexplicable fanaticism and excitement in its eyes when it looks at the male goblins.

As for what kind of feeling this is, now is not the time to explore.

The most important thing right now is that a large number of leeks have arrived, and it is time for the harvest.

Gu An leaned lazily on the stone chair and waved his right hand, signaling the ghost goblin to go out and investigate to see how many "express deliveries" had been delivered.

"Air" received instructions and, with its extremely fast movement speed, quietly came out of the cave and stood on a high point to act as a "reconnaissance guard", lighting up the map vision.

Gu An switched the perspective and saw that the open space outside the cave was already densely packed with people.

The moonlight was cunning, embellishing the night. The rest of the forest was eerily quiet, except for the bustling noise near the territory.

They held torches, illuminating the dark front of the cave.

The Ghost Goblin stood at the highest point and could see these people's every move very clearly. He counted the number of people and found that there were about thirty adventurers.

They stood in four teams, one of which was the returning customers, the "Super Power Team", who seemed to be arguing with the others at the moment.

"Swordsman Group, Orc Team, what's going on?"

"Didn't we agree that only our Silver Team would come to conquer the cave?"

"What's up with those adventurers?!"

The Super Strength Team arrived the first, and the other teams arrived late. What made Captain Haike very angry was that in addition to the silver-level adventurers, there were also second-rate adventurers who came here.

He didn't invite these people at all.

The mission of rescuing Miss Luca only requires three silver teams.

The involvement of second-rate adventurers is simply an attempt to seize credit and fish in troubled waters.

Sharing intelligence with other silver teams was already a helpless move, and now there are more people trying to divide the profits. How could Captain Haike not be angry?

Before leaving, I was repeatedly reminded to keep the matter of "Miss Luca" confidential. I really can't figure out which idiot was so careless about keeping his mouth shut.

He actually shared the opportunity to make money with others. Is he out of his mind?

Captain Haike was extremely angry and without caring about the face of the second-rate adventurer, he criticized the other two silver teams in public.

With his status as the strongest adventurer in town, he has every right to do so.

"You asked us?"

"God knows what's going on!"

"Such a big thing, do you think we would be stupid enough to leak it?"

"Besides, my team members and I were adventuring in other places. We just came back and didn't have time to go back to Qiming Town!"

There are a total of six people in the Swordsman Group, led by a young man with a relatively fair appearance, who forms a huge contrast with the dark-skinned Captain Haike.

Faced with groundless accusations, he raised his eyebrows with an unhappy expression, and wanted to figure out what the situation was.

The number of second-rate adventurers is already equal to that of all silver team members.

This is equivalent to a table of food that was originally intended for three groups of people, but now there are half more diners, resulting in a large loss of profits for no reason.

This kind of thing was completely unexpected.

Neither the Super Strength Team nor the Swordsman Group leaked the secret, and both of them fixed their eyes on the captain of the Orc Team.

"What are you all looking at me for?"

"Our orc team is not stupid!"

"As for those monsters you mentioned, they are not a big problem for our three teams at all."

"Who would have the time to call up those second-rate adventurers?"

The captain of the orc team was a sturdy man with his hands folded across his chest. He had a tiger skin wrapped around his waist, revealing his powerful muscles on his upper body.

Although his physique is not as broad and strong as Coleman's, his body fat percentage is quite perfect. His muscles are not big, but they are very tight.

Facing their suspicious looks, he expressed his attitude in a serious manner.

The three of them talked openly, completely ignoring the second-rate adventurers next to them, as if they were deliberately trying to disgust these troublemakers.

But this attitude is normal.

After all, destroying someone's financial resources is like killing their parents.

Anyone would be very angry if their interests were divided up inexplicably and their expectations were breached.

If they had not taken into consideration that there were too many troublemakers and some of them might escape if they were killed, Captain Haike and others might not only ridicule them verbally, but would have cleared the area physically instead.

"Ah!"

"They all said that there was no leak of information."

"Is it really haunted?"

Captain Haike snorted coldly with a gloomy expression and glanced around viciously.

The facts are in front of us. There are only a few people who know the truth, and they all say that the news has not been leaked. Could it be that the monster itself spread the news?
Anyone who believes this kind of nonsense is a fool.

It must be that cowardly bastard who leaked the information and is afraid to admit it.

"ghost?"

"It should be called Ghost."

"Or a pervert?"

Ghost Goblins have very sensitive hearing.

Through it, Gu An clearly heard the argument between the Silver Team.

He glanced at the lustful goblin who was holding his head high and chest out, and felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with calling this "culprit" a pervert.

The truth came out.

It turns out that this is the reason why it attracts so many second-rate adventurers.

This was because under Gu An's arrangement, the lustful goblins disguised themselves as humans and spread the news throughout Qiming Town that the Silver Team would have a big mission tonight, and the elves were particularly mentioned.

No one would believe a stranger who spread information about the elves alone.

But the whereabouts of the Silver Team are not false.

After hearing the news, this group of second-rate adventurers kept an eye on the movements of the "Super Power Team" and rushed here following the smell.

Seeing the Silver Team gathered here, they were naturally delighted.

The information is true!
The elf girl is really here!

And you don't have to do it yourself. The Silver Team will clear the monsters in front of you, and you can get a certain bounty if you just mix in.

This is a great thing!

The second-rate adventurer understood his identity from the beginning and adjusted his mentality, so he didn't care about the weirdness of Captain Haike and others.

It's a free way to make money.

It doesn't hurt to be ridiculed a little.

The most powerful adventurer among them took the initiative to walk up to Captain Haike as a representative, with an extremely flattering smile on his face.

"Hey, fellow silver adventurers."

"We are all in the same business as each other in the same town. We are all of the same blood, no matter what."

"We also received news that there are many powerful monsters here, so we came here to support Captain Haike."

"But I never expected that the masters of the Swordsman Group and the Orc Team have also arrived here."

"With you all here, it will definitely be more than enough to conquer the monster caves outside the forest."

"But we adventurers are not weak either. Since we are here, it would be good for us to help you with some chores."

Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.

The second-rate adventurer had a joking look on his face, lowered his status very much, and shamelessly made excuses that no one would believe.

Captain Haike also knew that these guys were like dog-skin plasters that could not be shaken off once they stuck to him, and it was simply unrealistic to ask them to give up the benefits they had obtained.

A large number of monsters gathered in the Fox Cave.

In addition to the group of level 15 monsters we saw last time, there should be many lower-level monsters.

Although with the cooperation of the three silver teams, no matter how many low-level monsters there are, they will not pose a threat, but it will still consume a lot of time and energy.

Now that this group of second-rate adventurers has arrived, we can also hand over these chores to them.

Use low-level monsters to hold them back. As long as we don't let these losers show up when we rescue Miss Luca, they shouldn't be able to take away any credit.

Moreover, there are many monsters above level 15. If you let a few of them go intentionally, you may be able to get rid of some of those who are trying to take advantage of the situation.

Captain Haike thought quickly in his mind and realized that these troublesome pieces of trash actually had some uses, and he felt much better.

"You can help if you want."

"Once we enter the cave, there will probably be quite a few miscellaneous soldiers. You will be responsible for dealing with them then."

"But don't blame me for not giving you advance warning."

"There are still many monsters above level 15 in this cave. With your limited abilities, if something goes wrong inside, you can't blame others."

His dark face was forced to smile, and Captain Haike's tone was full of sarcasm and threats.

However, the representative of the second-rate adventurers did not care about such an attitude.

After all, he is an adventurer.

They are mercenaries who make money by risking their heads.

Which mission would be risk-free?
Having seen all kinds of storms, the second-rate adventurer may not be very strong, but he is very brave to make money, so he is naturally not afraid of the threat in Captain Haike's words. Anyway, there are no powerful monsters outside the forest.

The three silver teams will go out together, and as long as you follow closely behind them, there will be no danger at all.

It's a business where you can make money just by doing nothing.

The adventurer representative knew all about this and completely ignored Captain Haike's threats. He touched his head and smiled flatteringly, "Captain Haike, don't worry."

"During a mission, life and death are determined by fate and it all depends on your ability."

"Even if something goes wrong, I won't blame you or anything."

Everyone had a smile on their face and calculations in their mind, and everyone got the promise they wanted.

The adventurer representatives returned to their own teams. Captain Haike, the Swordsmen, and the Orc Team also began to organize their equipment and then entered the dark cave in batches.

The leeks have already discussed how to be harvested, and Gu An has also begun to deploy the plan.

[Evil Fire Goblin, Lustful Goblin, and Male Lady Goblin, head to the third passage and annihilate the adventurers head-on.]

[The male goblin is a magician and is not good at close combat. The evil fire goblin is responsible for rushing into the crowd to fight. The lustful goblin is mainly responsible for protecting the back row. ]

[Swordsman Goblin, Ice Goblin, you two will surround them from behind and make sure no human can leave the cave alive.]

[Junior Goblins, you are responsible for acting as bait and leading the adventurers into the third passage and handing them over to the Hellfire Goblins for processing.]

This was the first time that a large-scale annihilation battle was carried out in a cave.

With the level 30 strength of the Hellfire Goblins, Ice Goblins, and Swordsman Goblins, it is very easy to kill the Silver Squad.

However, in order to ensure that the leeks are not wasted, a little strategy is still needed to trap all adventurers in a passage with no way forward or backward to harvest them.

It's a good opportunity to review my combat command ability as a lord and maintain my gaming feel.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength.

Gu An is a gaming expert known for his caution. Even if he has an overwhelming advantage, he will give his all in every battle.

Under his arrangement and deployment, all the goblins began to take action.

Continue to observe everything through the [Cave Master] skill.

Led by Captain Haike, the members of the Silver Team walked in the front, followed by a group of second-rate adventurers.

The dark cave was now illuminated by a large number of torches. They walked through the winding and rugged passages, moving forward quickly.

After walking for a while, they were almost reaching the fork in the road between the three major passages.

"Ha ha!"

"I didn't expect the first monster I encountered would be a goblin!"

"The screams of this ugly creature when it's smashed into pieces are so nice to hear!"

The junior goblin was standing at the fork in the road. When he saw the adventurers holding torches approaching, he looked extremely frightened and scared, and ran into the third passage wailing.

The fat man from the Super Strength Team held up a large shield and laughed excitedly as he watched it flee.

Tonight, you can kill to your heart's content!
"That goblin ran into the passage."

"Everyone just go from there."

When a monster discovers the trace of an invader, it will call for help from its companions. If it takes other passages, it will easily be attacked from both sides.

So Captain Haike followed the goblin's footsteps and came to the third passage, deciding to start from here to break through into the depths of the cave.

"With the three silver teams attacking together, those monsters are going to have a great time today."

"It's a rare opportunity for everyone to carry out a mission, so why not have a competition to see which silver team kills the most monsters and has the coolest poses."

"How about it?"

Kuhlmann carried the giant blade and walked into the third aisle with an excited smile on his face.

His leisurely attitude seemed as if he did not regard this operation as a mission at all, but more like participating in a "fighting game" where he might get hurt.

It's not surprising to have this thought.

Because Qiming Town is more developed than Iven Town.

All the silver-level adventurers present are of level 19 strength. If they go out together, it is unlikely that they will encounter any fatal danger while fighting monsters on the outskirts of the forest.

At most they would suffer some injuries of varying degrees, but for adventurers, this was not a big deal.

Of course, this is under normal circumstances.

"it is good!"

"The Adventurer's Association has rated your Super Strength Team as the best adventure group in Qiming Town."

"My orc team has been dissatisfied for a long time. Let's have a good fight tonight!"

The orc captain raised his voice, his muscles instantly bulged, and his magic power formed a "tiger head" shadow behind him.

"Since we are going to compete, we must seize the initiative!"

The members of the Swordsman Corps were equally excited, and while they were talking, they all ran into the third passage with their swords in hand, which was very unsportsmanlike.

"mean!"

“He actually ran away just like that!”

"We have to keep up!"

The Swordsmen's early start instantly kicked off the "competition", just like a spark falling on cotton, instantly igniting everyone's passion.

Combat missions as large as tonight's are extremely rare.

It was a total carnival.

Every member of the Silver Team was unwilling to fall behind, and under the leadership of Captain Heike and Kuhlmann, everyone rushed forward along the third channel.

"Bros."

"No matter what monsters there are later, don't worry about them. The Silver Team will take care of them."

"Let's just follow Captain Haike to prevent him from playing dirty tricks."

Second-rate adventurers were in no mood for competition.

They followed and discussed privately.

Monsters are nothing to be afraid of.

What we need to worry about is whether the Silver Team will play dirty tricks.

So when the battle starts, take it easy if you can and follow the Silver Team closely. This way it will be absolutely safe.

Through the [Cave Master] skill.

Gu An saw that the lure of the junior goblins was very successful.

Just as he expected, these guys who valued their lives would choose to act together and break into the third passage.

[Evil Fire Goblin, Lustful Goblin, Male Goblin, adventurers have entered the net, ready to fight. 】

[Male Goblin, start chanting and preparing magic now. ]

[Swordsman Goblin, Ice Goblin, go take a detour and outflank them immediately.]

It's time to close the door and beat the dog!
Gu An delegated combat orders to each mutated goblin, and then continued to use the [Cave Lord] skill to observe the overall situation.

【Jie jie jie! 】

In the dim passage, three pairs of scarlet eyes floated in the air, like guiding lights leading to hell.

The noisy footsteps of the adventurers in the distance were getting closer and closer, and they were even shouting excitedly.

Hearing these voices, the ferocious smiles on the faces of the Evil Fire Goblin and the Lustful Goblin became brighter, and the corners of their mouths and eyes were curved into arcs.

[Evil fire boss, lustful boss! ]

[Those adventurers are left to you! ]

The junior goblin ran over in a panic. Behind it, torches were lit brightly, and a large group of adventurers were chasing it.

The Fire Goblin didn't say anything, but tilted his head, motioning the little guy to stand behind and watch the big brother perform.

The junior goblin nodded seriously, as if saying, "I'm counting on you, big brother. I'll run away first." Then he really ran deep into the cave.

【Swear allegiance to the Lord until death! 】

【Dedicate all your efforts to the development of the territory! 】

【Strive for customer experience! 】

【…】

At this time, the male goblin held the staff in both hands, with his legs crossed, and chanted the magic guidance words in advance.

"Ha ha!"

"It seems there are other monsters ahead."

"Minotaur? Or a demon bear?"

"and many more!"

"Why is it still a goblin?"

“And it’s red!”

The members of the Swordsmen Corps ran the fastest, holding a torch in one hand and a long sword in the other.

When they vaguely saw new monsters ahead, they were very excited and guessed together what race they would encounter this time.

However, when they got closer and saw the monster's specific appearance clearly, they were all dumbfounded.

There is actually a tall red goblin here!
"Swordsmen, what are you shouting about?"

"There will be red ones..."

Kurman was a step late, and his excited shouting stopped abruptly when he reached the swordsmen, and the smile on his face froze instantly.

?

Red Goblin?!

What's happening here?
【Jie jie jie! 】

Under the shocked gazes of Kuhlmann and the Swordsmen, the Evil Fire Goblin let out a hideous laugh.

Flames were surging on its body and the flowing magma was emitting flames, forming thick armor. Then it charged forward like an unstoppable tank!

"What the hell is this?!"

The Fire Goblins charged at an extremely fast speed, approaching them in just a few strides. Seeing this terrifying speed, the Swordsmen and Kuhlmann cursed at the same time, then drew their weapons to resist.

boom!
With a huge fist carrying terrifying flames, the Fire Goblin rushed into the crowd like a tiger breaking out of a cage.

The hard iron sword broke like mud under its charge, in front of everyone's incredible gaze.

The eyes of the swordsmen at the front were filled with terror. They didn't even have time to escape before they were smashed into exploding flesh and blood.

Fear, surprise, panic.

The survivors were in chaos, jumping away and dodging in all directions, trying to escape the terrifying thing in front of them that they had no way of resisting.

Captain Haike and others had just arrived when they saw this horrifying scene. They all stood there in a daze, their hearts trembling, and even their pupils shrank into tiny dots.

Goblin...

The Goblin that can emit fire...

A goblin that can easily kill a silver-level adventurer...

 Thanks to the handsome guy for the recommendation, and thanks to the boss for the monthly ticket!
  Thank you all for your support!

  Thanks to Dadoumao for the reward, and thanks to Bai Qianxing for the reward!
  Thank you all the bosses, you will make a fortune!
