(Update 3 today, thank you book friends for the tip, hahahaha, people with hundreds of thousands of words in their manuscripts can be so willful!!)
He kept running at night, not daring to waste his strength. After running nearly 30 miles in one breath, he finally found a hidden cave and hid.
His double daggers had been left behind in the mountain village. At this moment, his two arms were still hanging softly on both sides of his shoulders. With a little exertion, waves of tingling pain would come to his heart, as if his arms were no longer his own. The same. Leaning weakly against the mountain wall, he carefully recalled that frightening moment. At this time, Ye Du could still feel the deep despair at that moment, and he was just a little bit close to dying on the spot.
But looking back now, he has another guess about what happened later, but he is not feeling well now and can't confirm his guess yet. But if the guess is correct, then he can be regarded as a blessing in disguise this time, and he has gained something. It's not like he fought for his life in vain.
The shadow energy in the body is slowly recovering. What is different from usual is that the shadow energy flowing in the blood of the body is more friendly and more attuned to the command of one's own spiritual thoughts. At the same time, these gradually recovering shadow energies are like a key hidden in his body, connecting to another world. However, the key is still incomplete now. It should be due to insufficient energy, so Ye cannot use this key to open it. Look at what's going on inside that world.
Focusing on the changes in the energy in his body, and taking a short rest, Ye set out again, heading towards the Bone Broken Tribe. Now that I have lost the ability to protect myself, I have no means or opportunity to continue to monitor the greenskins. It is too risky to stay in this wilderness. It is better to rush back to the tribe while the shadow energy is dense in the night. Reduce the chance of being overtaken by pursuers behind you.
Although Ye didn't know that Allen didn't have anyone chasing him, he didn't dare to take the risk. After just walking on the road of life and death, Ye finally felt that his life was the most cherished treasure.
The night ran in the darkness, and Allen and the others stayed in the valley until the sun rose before setting off towards the Green Lake.
No one in the entire hobgoblin settlement could escape, and they were all captured by Allen and the others. In the end, a rough count of the heads showed that there were several more people than Allen had estimated, with 23 people. . Of course, the extra people are not of much help to Green Field in improving its strength, because this hobgoblin settlement actually still supports three wrinkled, gray-haired old goblins. This is very difficult for the wilderness tribe who lacks food. It's actually a bit surprising.
Also, there are a lot of children in this hobgoblin settlement, there are 6 of them. The largest one should be 2-3 years old and the younger ones look like they have just been weaned. Allen is happier looking at these cubs than the old goblins. These are the future of the tribe. When they grow up, they will not only become the fighting force of the tribe, but also give birth to children and reproduce for the tribe. Descendants.
As for the captive hobgoblins, after experiencing initial resistance, panic and other emotions, they are now gradually calming down. Regarding the fact that he is now a prisoner, Wilderness racial discrimination has always been very aware. Just like Allen, when he heard that Green Lake Village was attacked, the most painful thing in his heart was the loss of his tribe. On the contrary, he was worried about the possible demise of the tribe. The fact is that I have been mentally prepared for a long time.
This is the law of survival in the wilderness. It has always been so cruel and ruthless. No one knows what will happen next or what disaster will befall them.
Before leaving, Allen asked the hobgoblin leader to take two of his men to bury the dead hobgoblin in the valley. For the current Green Field Tribe, if there is no shortage of food, they will not regard the corpses of their fellow tribesmen as food. After all, they can be regarded as an intelligent race, and they still have some empathy.
"let's go."
Allen raised his head and held his chest high, facing the rising sun and leading the group of hobgoblins that were slowly moving forward under the supervision of Dajiang and others, and embarked on the road home.
There were not too many troubles on the way. Apart from the fact that they encountered a violent lion that was hunting for prey halfway, it roared threateningly at them and then walked away, there were no other surprises.
"The patriarch is back!"
The advantage of Green Lake Village being built at a high place is that you can see far away. Before Allen and the others could get close to the village, someone had already left the village and came towards them.
After accepting the experience of being caught off guard by the kobolds last time, Camellia strongly suggested to Allen that a lookout post should be built in each of the four directions of the village. Someone must monitor the surrounding areas every day to avoid the same dilemma as before.
Allen also agreed with Camellia's suggestion. Although he did not build lookout posts in the four directions, he also built two lookout posts on the diagonal of the village, which were more than 4 meters above the wall, and arranged two teams of people. Guard day and night.
The hobgoblins had never been in high spirits. When they were being escorted forward, most of them looked gloomy. Their hearts were full of hesitation, and they didn't know what kind of living environment would be waiting for them after they were captured.
However, when they arrived at Green Lake Village, their eyes immediately lit up with the clear blue lake that was half the size of a football field outside the village. They were curious about the gray-white soil that had been plowed out in patches by the lake, and reclaimed into square land with criss-crossing ravines, as well as the rows of dense green plants growing neatly in the land. As for the edge of the land, the clusters of similarly regulated berry bushes, dotted with red and yellow berries, failed to attract everyone's attention, except for the leader of the hobgoblins.
"Clan leader, where did you catch this little guy? Look at the bones in his body, he is really weak!"
Dashan, who stayed at home, patted the strong chest of the first hobgoblin. He was a little dissatisfied with the hobgoblin's figure just like picking a domestic animal. However, he forgot that the bugbear was much stronger than the hobgoblin. He was picky. This is simply unreasonable.
"Get out of here!"
Allen kicked this guy angrily. He was picking on the hobgoblin here and there. In fact, he was complaining to himself that he didn't take him out of the village to fight with him.
"Clan leader."
Camellia also came over, but instead of being as excited as Dashan and the others showed, she was a little bit complaining.
"Now there are more than 20 mouths. How can our food stand up to this!"
Although she was complaining, Camellia's eyes were actually full of joy. The stronger the Green Field Tribe, the better her life would be in the future, and the power in her hands would also increase.
"There will eventually be a solution to the food problem, but I leave these people to you. Don't abuse them!"
After Allen returned to the village, he immediately acted as a hands-off shopkeeper. He didn't need to make any arrangements for how to arrange the prisoners next. Camellia and the others would take care of it.
It's good to have a capable subordinate. Allen no longer needs to personally deal with many trivial matters. The only pity is that this smart guy is not a male, and his strength is still a little bit behind.
"Don't worry, clan leader, I'll have someone clean their place right now."
Camellia nodded and started to get busy.
