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

The brave warriors all turned their eyes to the location of the four members of the Holy Maiden Team, and then quickly looked away.

In fact, whether to fight or not is not just the will of the Holy Maiden Team, each of them can decide or deny it.

An Yi is only providing suggestions. If there is really a vote, the minority must obey the majority.

Unless he can find a better way to ensure the minimum sacrifice while defeating the Goblin Empire.

Licolina also closed her eyes and fell into deep thought.

An Yi didn't say anything, but just looked at the sand table in front of him in silence.

Has he ever encountered such a situation?

Of course I have.

Usually he would bypass all the goblins and take the head of the goblin king directly.

In the face of absolute speed and power, low-level goblins are nothing.

The problem is that now he is not fighting alone.

Not all warriors and orcs can get past these goblins, and even if they do, they cannot ignore them when retreating.

There is no way around it. In the early stages, there are no brave warriors who can handle this kind of super-large-scale battlefield. They are not yet at the level that can cope with such a situation.

but……

"It's just a stupid act." An Yi said calmly.

The Fang Hero Kelfa scratched his face and said, "What do you mean?"

"Goblins love to torture desperate people, so...

Let's let them have a taste of despair." An Yi still had no expression on his face, but everyone could sense a hint of horror.

Licorina: "So are we going to fight or not?"

An Yi: “Fight.”

Licolina: "How do we fight?"

An Yi: "Hit me at will."

Licolina: “?”

Anyi said calmly, "There will never be enough food for the goblins."

……

In the royal city of the Goblin Empire, the selection of the Goblin King's Servant and the Goblin Champion is proceeding intensively.

Although Gokin's empire was badly damaged, the goblins above level five from the neighboring Goblin Empire were still unharmed.

The unknown enemy only killed their king and let the orcs go, but did not kill the other goblins.

Therefore, new Goblin Champions and Goblin King Servant can be selected from among them.

Those centurions and goblin champions never expected that they could advance ahead of schedule after changing their king.

Originally, they were a little hesitant about being asked to serve the new king.

As a result, this kind of treatment at the very beginning made the goblins from the neighboring empire feel valued and more submissive to Gokin.

The first ones to be selected were a goblin champion and a goblin king servant. Both of them had been recognized by other champions and king servants for their strength, and they were only one step away from promotion.

They do not need to be selected and can be promoted directly because they need to urgently replenish their combat power.

The remaining goblins began a fierce competition, all wanting a chance to advance.

The "local" goblins have little ability to compete, because the strongest ones have all been killed. Even if they are dissatisfied, they cannot compete with the almost powerful goblins in the neighboring country.

"Are there any moves on the human side?"

On the throne, Gokin supported his face with one hand and asked in a deep voice.

"At the moment, it seems like no." A goblin king servant replied.

It would be better to say that humans have not taken any action.

However, this also makes the goblins uneasy.

Since the orcs were rescued in the last surprise attack, the humans have not made any moves.

Although it could be said that it was due to the negligence of the Goblin Centurion, even if it was replaced by the Goblin Thousand, it would be difficult to deal with the silent infiltration of humans.

"Those sent out to investigate, do they have any intelligence?" Gokin asked again.

"They are all...dead."

"...Forget it, it's a natural result." Gokin sighed.

Not only did Gokin react indifferently, but so did the other Goblin King servants present.

Because since a long time ago, goblins would be quickly killed by humans as long as they entered a certain range, and the lack of intelligence has been going on for a long time.

Those sent out were all low-level goblins, so there's nothing to feel sorry for.

"Keep finding ways to collect intelligence." Gokin said lightly.

"Yes!"

The Goblin King's servants said in unison.

On the side, Gomon, who had lost one arm, said nothing.

None of the Goblin King Servant present had ever fought with humans, because except for it, all the Goblin King Servant who had fought with humans were dead.

Among all the king's servants, it is the one that can best understand the disadvantages of lack of intelligence.

Gomon couldn't understand why Gojin and all the king's servants had such inexplicable self-confidence...

Oh, no, it should be said that it is a kind of paralysis.

Why do we take it for granted that we cannot obtain intelligence?

Thinking of this, Gomon's broken arm seemed to ache slightly.

Obviously with the goblin's recovery ability, the wound should have almost healed long ago, but when it thinks of the oppressive feeling brought by a certain male human, it can't help but suffocate.

It felt deeply that it knew nothing about human beings.

It knows nothing of power!

That sword not only caused permanent physical damage to it, but also shattered its spirit.

In today's lack of intelligence, can we really defeat humans?

evening.

Evening is the time when goblins are active. Without the heat of the day, the dim sky makes it easier for them to move.

They have been here for a few days, and most of the prey within their range has been eaten.

The gathering of a large number of goblins was a devastating blow to the ecology of the area.

Even a powerful monster will only become their food when besieged by a large number of goblins.

However, the prey is limited.

In addition to providing food to higher-level goblins, the most common low-level goblins also need to eat themselves, so they can only move outward to look for food.

However, at night.

The goblin centurions who were waiting for the low-level goblins to offer food discovered that the food supply had become less.

It should be said that the lower-level goblins didn't seem to bring back much food.

"What's going on? Where's the food?"

Somewhere, a Goblin Centurion sat on the ground in a tent and asked the Goblin Shaman in front of him.

"No, I don't know. My men went out and never came back!" the Goblin Shaman answered tremblingly.

Logically, it shouldn't take them that long to find food.

Goblins have a very keen sense of smell and can easily find prey whether it is in the sky or underground.

And they are required to come back within a certain time, even if they don't find food, they will come back.

But let alone bringing back food, there were very few goblins even returning to the territory.

"Go see what's going on!" the Goblin Centurion ordered.

"Yes!"

The Goblin Shaman ran away as fast as he could, fearing that if he ran too slowly he would be slapped to death by the Centurion.

then……

The Goblin Shaman has not returned in the past two hours.

Finally, the Goblin Centurion couldn't bear it anymore and urgently summoned all the Goblin Shamans in the territory.

"Does anyone know what happened?" the Goblin Centurion asked in a deep voice.

The goblin shamans looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.

Clearly, they all knew something.

"Oh!"

The Goblin Centurion suddenly stood up and kicked a Goblin Shaman to death, and blood and flesh splattered on the Goblin Shaman next to him.

"Gah!!"

The other goblin shamans kowtowed in fear.

"Master Centurion! None of the goblins that went out have returned! None of them have returned!!"

"That's right! He disappeared as soon as he walked out!!"

"I don't know what's going on!"

"I don't know either!!"

The goblin shamans reported in panic, talking at once, but the only information they could confirm was—

Whether they went out to hunt or to confirm the situation, no one could come back once they left.

The goblin shamans didn't know what to say either.

Simply reporting that "he went out and never came back" is completely useless!

What if the goblin who went out just came back late?

What if it’s just that food is hard to find?

"enough!"

The Goblin Centurion stomped his foot on the ground, causing it to shake violently.

“You, go check with other centurions and ask if this is the case only in our territory.

You, find a way to report this matter to the centurion commander. If this continues, our territory will not be able to provide food.

You guys, come with me to check the situation.

The rest of you stay here and do what you need to do.”

The Goblin Centurion wanted to know what it meant to never come back once you go out.

It also thought that it might be humans who were causing trouble, but if humans came, it would sooner or later encounter humans if it stayed here.

There's no point hiding here, I might as well go and see what's going on.

The remaining three goblin shamans went to count the number of goblins and the remaining food, and then...

Their Centurion, like the other Goblins who left, never returned.

By the next morning, the goblins responsible for guarding the outermost circle were in a panic.

More than half of the goblins sent out to look for food disappeared, and nearly one-third of the goblin centurions who were sent out to investigate the situation in the territory disappeared.

A large number of goblins began to migrate towards the inner territory, and then were driven back to the outermost circle.

An invisible fear began to envelop the goblins.

After a few short hours, low-level goblins were sent out to search for the other missing goblins.
