They recognized their feelings, but the knight had been reincarnated as a fox cub

But where can she get food in this wilderness? The goblins were blown up to pieces, and there was nothing nearby. She couldn't eat grass roots or dig mud to fill her stomach, could she?

Even if her quality of life has fallen due to economic problems, she is still a person, right? She can't lower her taste to this level just to survive, right?

Now that things have come to this, let’s go to sleep first. Then you won’t be hungry anymore.

It's not like Fate hasn't experienced living in the open air before, but how should I put it? She always felt a little unsafe sleeping in this posture in such a remote place. As for why she felt unsafe, she couldn't say.

Well.......

I was exhausted, and my body felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock, making it extremely difficult to move.

At a time like this, staying still might be the best option, but Fate had a hunch that if she allowed herself to sleep until tomorrow morning, she might starve to death in her dream.

I tried to move my fingers, but each one felt like it was filled with lead and could hardly move even a little bit.

Hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, so hungry.............

She tried not to think about the delicacies that passed by, but when she opened her eyes she could see chicken legs and lamb legs flying in the sky.

The feeling of hunger was too much for Fate to bear, even though she didn't want to do it...

The peach-white glow bathed her entire body, and the blonde girl's body gradually shrank. The moisture dissipated, and a little white-haired fox rustled and struggled to get up from the ground.

I don't know why, but after the fox bloodline took over, it was obviously much easier for her to transform into a fox. Maybe it was because her small body didn't require much energy to consume.

The moonlight passed through the bare trees, casting a layer of bright silver on the spotless white hair.

Due to some traumas from her childhood, Fei Tao didn't like her fox bloodline, nor did she like foxes. But now she had to use this 'energy-saving posture' to find food, otherwise she would really howl with hunger.

For Fei Tao, there is no torture in the world more horrible than starvation.

"A-choo!" The fox hair floating in the air made Fei Tao sneeze.

She is allergic to foxes, which is one of the reasons why she doesn't want to turn into a nine-tailed fox.

"Fox, fox... hm? Sniff sniff!" With the help of the fox's excellent and sensitive sense of smell, Fei Tao smelled something. Her small nose moved, and then she no longer cared about her image, and got on all fours and lay on the ground, with three big white tails shaking behind her.

The small and delicate nose kept sniffing, and soon, the white-haired young fox fixed its eyes on a patch of grass not far away.

She hurried over, but her toe was tripped by a stone, and she lost her balance and rolled to the edge of the grass like a fox ball.

After tidying up her messy hair, Fei Tao looked at the grass under her feet and pulled it apart. As expected, a hole of moderate size was revealed.

This should be the goblins' nest. It's hidden quite well.

The cave built by the goblins with their own size is a little difficult for adults to fit into, but it is more than enough for Feitao.

With a gurgling sound, Fei Tao went into the cave, looked around with her large, strange-colored eyes, and followed her sense of smell to find a warehouse similar to the one used by goblins to store their spoils.

The 'door' of the storehouse was a carriage wheel that had been robbed from somewhere. With some effort, he pushed the wheel open and looked at the items stored inside in the light of the fire. His rosy eyes were filled with twinkling stars and his drool flowed uncontrollably from the corners of his mouth.

The hungry fox pounces on its food!

"There are so many delicious foods!" Fei Tao rushed into the goblin's storage pile, hugged a piece of bacon, showed her sharp little fangs and started to chew it happily.

Smoked meat, canned food, pickled vegetables, all of which are foods that can be eaten for a long time and will not expire. Although the taste is not as good as the delicacies on the nobles' table, Fei Tao is very hungry, and everything she eats tastes like delicacies from the mountains and the sea.

"Fox, smack, smack..." Fei Tao chewed on the bacon, and casually put her little feet on the mountain of cans, looking extremely unrestrained.

It is said that matter determines consciousness, and consciousness reacts on matter. If it were in the past, Fei Tao would never have done such a thing as losing her image.

After she had eaten dozens of pieces of bacon, more than ten cans of food, and several bundles of pickled vegetables, she finally felt that she was full. Her little mouth was greasy as she licked the remaining meat flavor on her hands, feeling unsatisfied.

What she didn't know was that she had eaten up almost half a year's food rations for the goblins in just one bite.

Sooner or later, you will have to pay for what you have done. The goblins who have been doing murder and robbery probably never thought that one day they would be robbed and blown to pieces, and all the spoils would become someone else's "dowry".

"Fox fox........." Rubbing her round little belly, Fei Tao, who was full, felt sleepy. She yawned, her eyelids began to droop, and she leaned against the mountain of cans and took a nap. The three big tails were just right to serve as a blanket to cover her body.

I'm full, I'm full, I'm going to sleep, I'm going to sleep~~

FoxyZZZZ........

Chapter 18: 17~Return to the Village

Fei Tao slept very well that day. She dreamed of a sumptuous feast.

Fox

I don’t know how much time had passed, Fei Tao rubbed her sleepy eyes, got up softly, and yawned loudly.

Aw~ The hungry fox roars.

He lifted up his soft tail, rubbed his little head, and gradually remembered what happened yesterday.

"Ah, I was careless." Fei Tao immediately sat up from the ground, the cherry-white halo converged inward, and it returned to its human form.

How could she be so careless last night and fall asleep so comfortably in the goblin's lair? ?

After all, this was the goblin's nest! If the goblins hadn't all come out last night, and one or two of them had stayed in the nest, and had come to her while she was sleeping, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Fate rubbed her forehead. In the past, she would never make such a low-level mistake even if she was very hungry.

When dealing with enemies, especially goblins, which are extremely vicious and merciless beasts, there is no room for carelessness. The slightest negligence can result in the loss of one's life.

I checked his body and found no injuries or abnormalities.

Fortunately, the goblins in this nest must have mobilized all their forces last night, and there were no goblins left in the cave, so she was spared.

He squeezed the pendant in his arms, and the dull blood pendant was now filled with rich luster.

The pendant's camouflage function has been restored.

Seeing his chest become flat, Fate breathed a sigh of relief.

There should be no other goblins in the lair, but we can't be sure yet.

Fate found the iron sword that he had lost outside the nest last night, crouched down and entered the cave, following the burning torch into the deepest part of the cave.

In addition to warehouses for storing food, there are also warehouses for storing weapons. These weapons are certainly not made by the goblins themselves, but were looted.

In addition, Fate also found gold and silver utensils in the warehouse where the weapons were stored, piled next to the weapons.

Although these little devils have no cultural literacy and only know how to reproduce but not art, they seem to have a special liking for these luxury goods. Of course, it is not ruled out that they just bring back everything they can loot.

No wonder these little devils don't go to plunder nearby villages. They can live very comfortably just by plundering caravans. Why do they need to plunder those poor villages? Aren't the caravans of these nobles more valuable than those? ?

The question arises again. Looking at the spoils of these goblins, we can understand that the caravans are well aware that there is a group of goblins here who specialize in collecting tolls. Why would they rather take this dangerous and remote path than take the regular official road which has almost no risk?

Is it that the things they transport are somewhat shameful?

Fate was not interested in these luxurious ornaments. He could not tell what was so shameful about the gold and silver. In his opinion, whether it was agate wine glasses for the living or burial wine glasses for the dead, they were all glittering with gold and there was no difference.

When he reached the end of the cave, Fate faintly heard a few whimpering cries, like a three-year-old child leaving his cradle.

Hearing these cries, Fate's mood became a little heavy.

During his many years in the military, he had personally raided goblin nests before, but he always felt heavy-hearted after each raid.

Because of this, he has no mercy on creatures like goblins.

When I turned the corner at the end, I didn't see the expected scene, but only a few little green skins lying on the ground crying.

Fate walked over silently and stood in front of the young goblins.

Seeing this, the goblins immediately stopped crying, looked vicious, and pounced towards Fate's legs.

They had a clear division of labor, and the other one planned to snatch the sword from Fate's hand.

However, all this had been seen through by Fate, who was well prepared. With a decisive and killing sword, he cut off the heads of the two little goblins, and then chopped off the heads of the remaining young goblins.

Only after confirming that these cunning little devils were not moving did Fate put away his sword.

There is no such thing as unreasonable evil in this world. Unfortunately, goblins are one of them.

When dealing with this kind of creature, we must eradicate it completely.

Looking around, Fate breathed a sigh of relief.

When destroying the goblin caves, one would always come across a few horrible-looking human girls who were abducted by the goblins as reproductive tools.

They often have their limbs cut off and become tools for the goblins to increase their population, and their spirits are ruined.

Poor soul, trapped in a miserable body with no way to be freed.

Usually when encountering such a situation, Fate can only harden his heart and let these poor souls be free.

There is no point in rescuing them; living has already become torture and pain for them.

Fortunately, Fate did not see these scenes in the cave, but the fact that he saw these little goblins meant that some girls had died, and after fulfilling their reproductive value, they were "dealt with" by the goblins.

Fate didn't know how the goblins dealt with it, but he understood that these vicious little devils would often "make the best use of things" and use these useless tools to fill their stomachs...

He walked out of the cave holding the sword stained with dirty blood. He didn't know who the original owner of the spoils was, and Fate didn't know who to return them to, so he ignored them.

After confirming that she had indeed turned back into a human, Fate put a few pieces of dried meat in her pocket and walked through the sun-drenched jungle towards the village.

"Hey? You are still alive? You are so lucky." At the entrance of the village, Fate met the noble servant who hired the villagers yesterday. Now standing next to him was a well-dressed middle-aged man in pointed boots and a red suit.

It should be the one who was rescued from the goblin encirclement last night.

Fate said nothing.

"Are you the villager who took the initiative to stay behind to guard the rear yesterday?" The noble looked Fate up and down. He always felt that this young man did not look like an ordinary country boy.

"You actually came back alive..." The nobleman hesitated for a moment. "You are not a villager of this village, right?"

"An ordinary traveler." Fate replied.

The noble man did not ask how Fate escaped from the heavy siege of the goblins. Perhaps the other party had a trick up his sleeve, or perhaps he was a disciple of a master of mind skills, but these were not his concern.

"Take it, this is your reward." The noble man asked his subordinates to hand Fate two silver coins, which was agreed upon in advance.

"Are there other villagers too?"

"Humph, are you kidding me? They ran away faster than the rats in my hometown, and they still want a reward?"

"No one is dead or even injured, so there is no need to give them money." The noble man snorted coldly.

"Young man, I see that you have some abilities. I value talent, so since you risked your life to save me last night, I will give you a good job. Do you want it?"

"What good job?"

Chapter 19: 18~Bati City

"What good job?"

"Isn't it hard to live a wandering life?" The young nobleman was very observant. Just a glance at Fate's clothes and he knew that the other party was not well-off and was struggling to make a living, otherwise he would not have accepted such a thankless commission.

For such people, nothing is more reliable than a stable job.

The petty noble originally just wanted to hire a bunch of cannon fodder.

It just so happened that he was also looking for help. This blond young man did not look like the type who would play tricks or have dirty hands or ulterior motives, and he also had some abilities and skills.

"What's your name?"

"Fate."

"Mr. Fate, a new church has been built in Batti City recently. Do you know about it?"

"I don't know." Fate shook his head. He had just crawled out of the grave and naturally knew nothing about what was happening outside.

"It just so happens that the newly built church in Batti City needs a front counter receptionist and church guard. Originally, this kind of job was reserved for those local Knight Academy students who failed the exam. I saw that you are quite skilled, and you saved my precious goods yesterday, so I reluctantly gave you this good job."

"What do you think? If you miss this village, you will miss this shop."

"Church guard?" Fate was not in a hurry to agree. "What do I usually do?"

"As long as there are no hooligans causing trouble in the church, it is basically a sinecure. You only need to answer a few questions from those who come to pray."

"As for the salary, it is tentatively set at one silver coin and fifty iron coins per month. What do you think?"

Fate had no concept of money, but now he understood that if he wanted to live a stable life in the world without going hungry after losing his knight's allowance, he could not do without money.

You have to eat. It’s impossible for people not to eat.

At present, the only valuables he had on him, besides the mithril necklace he had found in the tomb, were the two silver coins and copper coins he had obtained this time, which would surely not last long.

How about putting the cruise on hold for now and saving up some money for a while?
