Everyone is a hero, but I am a second-year player.

First make sure there are no goblins around, then try your luck finding orcs.

She remembered that the orcs were guarded by goblins, and they would not leave the cave.

In this case, there is a risk of being discovered even if you get close to the cave entrance.

The Goblin Centurions alone could make quite a lot of noise. Even if they didn't run away to report the incident, their shouts alone could alert a large number of goblins.

and so……

This actually gave Miluko the opportunity to find orcs.

Because the other party may not necessarily send a lot of goblins to patrol around.

Just yell if anything happens.

Moreover, Miluko noticed one more thing.

That is where there are many Goblin Centurions, but fewer Goblins below level three.

On the way up the mountain, Miluko didn't even see a goblin, not even a goblin centurion.

She was very suspicious because this was the heartland of the Goblin Empire, so goblins below the rank of Goblin Captain were not allowed to move around the mountains at will.

In the eyes of high-level goblins, low-level goblins are no different from livestock.

Who wants these lowly creatures walking around on their noble land?

Of course, this is just Miluko's guess, and she has no idea what the actual situation is.

For example, low-level goblins will hide from high-level goblins?

Miluko kept moving forward while having all sorts of random thoughts in her mind.

In the cave, everyone waited quietly.

No one dared to make a sound, for fear of alarming the goblin.

No one was impatient. Orcs were good at ambushes and could stay in one place in the same position for hours without moving.

An Yi was also waiting, waiting for news from Miluko.

He also agreed to retreat, not for any reason, but simply because the Goblin King had now concentrated all his forces in his city.

Originally, I just wanted to try my luck and wonder if the orcs might be imprisoned somewhere far away from the goblin city.

But if he is really locked up in the mountains outside the city, rescue will be more difficult.

If there is any mistake, it will not be a question of whether the orcs live or die. 90% of them may die here.

With Miluko's help, they should be able to rescue one or two, but the rest will have no way out under the siege of such a large number of goblins.

unless……

Kill all the besieging goblins.

An Yi secretly made a plan in his mind to kill his way through the entire Goblin Empire's royal city alone. Even if he couldn't save everyone, he would still kill all the goblins.

Only by killing all the goblins including the Goblin King can more people be saved.

Of course, he would only use this method in critical situations.

If it is not an emergency situation, he will choose to retreat, which can protect everyone.

He will only choose this option in an emergency when it has been confirmed that it is impossible to protect everyone, and even when most people will die as a result.

Kill the most goblins to protect the most teammates.

Besides, even from the perspective of profit alone, he cannot take such measures.

After all, it is a large-scale dungeon, and it is imperative to ensure that all participating heroes can share experience and improve the overall strength of the heroes.

He killed all the goblins by himself, and even if he killed them to level 100, he would not make any profit. No matter how he thought about it, it would be better to maximize the profit.

Time passed by minute by minute. Anyi was thinking about how to find a way out, while Miluko was also nervously looking for the whereabouts of the orcs.

According to the orcs, each tribe basically does not exceed fifty households.

Although there is more than one tribe in a forest, it is actually not easy to find a cave in a large mountain range in the dark.

At this moment, Miluko suddenly thought of a possibility.

is it possible……

Did the goblins actually hide all the caves?

For example, cover it up with something, or simply dig it in some inconspicuous visual blind spot.

Or even, it’s not on this hill at all?

"Waste of time!"

Miluko immediately turned around and headed back.

[The Thorn Warrior: If you want to find someone, you need the help of orcs. They should be able to smell the scent of other orcs.

Sword Hero: Didn’t you notice?

The Thorn Hero: Well, it's difficult. We can't rule out the possibility that the goblins hid the cave.

Sword Hero: Okay, come back first, I'll let Arya go with you.

The Stab Hero: Immediately. 】

An Yi asked Arya to go not because Arya was better at fighting or for any other reason. In terms of strength, speed, endurance and reaction, she might not be as good as an adult male orc, but...

She weighs less than an adult male orc.

This way, Miluko can move faster with her.

An Yi used wind magic to send a message to Arya: "Arya, go to the exit, Miss Miluko is waiting for you outside.

We humans don't have a keen sense of smell, so we need your help in finding other orcs."

Arya was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously and walked towards the exit wordlessly.

Orcs all have the skill of [Stealth], which allows them to hide their bodies and eliminate sounds, so they can enter and exit the cave without making any sound.

After using [Invisibility], a layer of black mist will cover the body, making it impossible to distinguish the gender and specific body shape.

However, the naked eye can still distinguish the other party's presence, so you still have to be vigilant and not be discovered by the goblins.

As soon as Arya came out of the cave, she felt her whole body lighten and was dragged away by a black shadow.

Soon it stopped in the dark again.

The next moment, all sounds in her ears disappeared, as if she had become deaf.

"You can talk now. Don't worry, no one can hear you here." Although Miluko did not show up, her voice still reached Arya's ears.

Rather, the only voice left in the entire environment was Miruko's.

[Skill: Quiet Place]

The Stab Hero is an "assassination" hero, and all the skills given are related to assassination, including quite a few skills for eliminating sounds.

[Quiet Place] can eliminate sounds in a small range. Only sounds allowed by Miluko can be heard within this range.

In fact, this skill can also be used on the enemy to eliminate all sounds heard by the enemy, making it impossible for the enemy to confirm the direction of the attack through sound.

"Can you smell the orcs?" Miluko asked in a low voice.

"Well... we can't do that here." Arya shook her head. "They are in the cave. They haven't come out. They haven't left any scent. We can't smell it."

Miluko nodded.

Since the orcs were taken back last time, the heroes have never seen them come out of the cave to hunt again.

In other words, they had not been to the outside world for a long time, so naturally it was impossible for them to leave any smell.

Even if there was a smell left, it had long since disappeared.

"Can you smell the goblins?" Miluko asked again.

Arya: "Everywhere!"

Not only are there goblins patrolling here, but their body fluids and feces also leave a strong odor that permeates everywhere, filling Arya's sense of smell.

"Well, is there any way to find your fellow tribesmen? If not, we will retreat." Miluko continued.

“Retreat?… Let’s search for it first!

If I get closer to the cave, maybe I can smell the scent of my kind!" Arya said excitedly.

Now that she has come this far, she doesn’t want to retreat!

What if the tribe members are really here?!

What if her brothers and sisters, her parents, were all here?

She trained so hard to get here, how could she just go back like this? !

"Okay, five minutes. We'll search for five minutes. If we find nothing, we'll retreat." Miluko said solemnly.

Arya nodded: "Yeah!"

Five minutes is just five minutes!

Miluko set the time in the system, threw a piece of food into her mouth to replenish her magic power, then closed the [Quiet Land] and led Alia in one direction.

Arya's agility is not as high as Miru's, so she just needs to turn on [Hide] and let Miru carry her and move.

As she was moved, she closed her eyes and felt all the smells in the air.

The forest environment is complex and there may be all kinds of smells. It has to be said that it is quite a test for Arya.

Moreover, it was moving quickly, and many smells passed by its nose in a flash. The only one it smelled the most was the stench of goblins.

Time passed by minute by minute, and according to Miluko's timer, three minutes had passed.

Considering that they can't get too far away from the cave, Miluko changes direction every minute, which also makes it easier for Alia to confirm the smell in different directions.

"Still can't find it...?"

Miluko muttered to herself in her heart.

Come to think of it, if we talk about smell, the cave should be the place with the strongest smell.

but……

The entrance to the cave is usually guarded by goblins!

The smell of the goblins covers the smell inside the cave. How can it not be difficult to find?

Hard to find, of course.

Another minute passed and Miluko changed direction again.

Arya was also a little anxious. She could feel that Du Milu was adjusting the direction, and she also knew that the other party was adjusting according to a certain time pattern.

The other party has made several adjustments, which means... time is running out.

“I can’t find it…! Why?!”

Could it be that the orcs are not on this mountain at all? !

[The Thorn Hero: There is still one minute left, and Arya has not been found yet.

Sword Hero: It doesn’t matter whether you can find it or not.

The Thorn Warrior: Why?

Sword Hero: Our plan this time is to rely on the orcs' secret attack to rescue a large number of orcs at one time, and then have these orcs rescue other orcs.

Now Arya can't find her people at all by relying on her sense of smell. Can other orcs find them easily?

In other words, our original plan is no longer useful.

There is no need to rush for one or two days, it is better to retreat as soon as possible.

At present, the enemy does not know what we are going to do. 】

From the goblin's perspective, it just looked like a human was outside making a scene for no apparent reason.

They had no idea what was happening inside and outside the cave.

During the time that Miluko was reporting, the last minute passed in the blink of an eye.

Miluko adjusted her direction again, but this time she went straight back to the cave.
