However, just like Mimiya and Zarius, after seeing the general content of the mission, the receptionist also whispered a reminder: "Um, Miss March Seven... From the guild's perspective, it is a good thing that the commissions can be completed equally, but..."
"Are you also trying to persuade us not to accept this commission?!"
San Yueqi immediately glared at her angrily.
"No, no, you misunderstood! I was just...just giving Miss Sanyueqi a suggestion! Commissions like this that are likely to be unfinished will eventually be recorded in the adventurer's files. You have an excellent resume, so there's no need to taint it with...the stain of a failed commission."
"This isn't a stain! This is someone waiting for us to rescue them!"
March Seventh became even more anxious. She was not a particularly eloquent person and was straightforward in nature. She said whatever she thought, which was the best portrayal of her.
"Instead of trying to convince me to give up, why not register right away? Forget it... I'll complete this paperwork when I get back. I'm leaving right now!"
"——Ehh!? Miss March Seven!"
The receptionist took the commission and ran out, and soon March 7th disappeared.
Wendy chuckled and ran out the door with her, while Danheng put down the cup, wiped the corner of his mouth with a calm expression, and then stood up and left.
Xing nodded apologetically to Mimiya and the other two, picked up the baseball bat and rushed out.
"...Are you leaving now? At least finish your meal before heading out...?"
Mimiya was a little dazed, and Zariyus lowered his head in shame.
"It seems that we are too narrow-minded to understand the compassion of Master March..."
"Humph! You two are really too slow this time!"
Fina glared at the two of them angrily, then picked up her staff and followed Xing's steps, running out together.
Only Mimiya and Zariyus were left looking at each other, and finally they stood up and went to the front desk to take over the necessary procedures of the commission. An idea also arose in their minds again.
Perhaps, just like the disagreement this time, the temporary cooperative team they formed with each other will also split...
Although he knew that those people were not petty people, but when he thought about how stupid he had said things when he was in a safe position, he almost wanted to punch himself.
"When did I start to become so indifferent to other people's lives..."
Mimiya thought so absentmindedly, and at the same time, Zariyus whispered after receiving the task certificate handed over by the receptionist.
"We'll talk about apologies later. Now, let's follow the adults—"
On the other side, Fina failed to keep up with the fast-moving people, or to be more precise, she simply lost them.
At this moment, she was looking around the streets with a dejected look on her face. She felt a sense of confusion rising from her heart. The sense of security that she was sure would be safe was also lost with the disappearance of Master March Seven.
The young priestess could only bow her head and taste this bitter emotion, while Mimiya and Zariyus who came to look for her could only rush to the nearest post station as soon as possible.
Because Mimiya had seen the commission location before, she knew where the cave was, which made everyone feel a little more excited.
However, in the night sky that they did not see, there were four pioneers with their wings spread out, flying.
Since San Yueqi was very anxious, Wendy had to help her realize her idea faster and took out the Wings of Wind that she had given to Bronya in the past.
The speed of moving in the air is very fast, and with the wind guiding you, there is no need to worry about getting lost.
When Mimiya and the others had just borrowed a usable carriage from the post station, they were already halfway through the journey.
By the time they landed, the night was getting darker, and the cave described in the commission was right in front of them, with even an animal bone totem next to it.
This was something that only a goblin shaman would arrange. Apparently, after a week, that small group of goblins had rapidly grown to a considerable size.
When you step into the cave, you can hear some strange noises coming from the depths of the darkness, as if a ghost is secretly spying on everyone in the dark.
There is no doubt that with the arrival of night, the goblins also began to become active.
Only then did San Yue Qi calm down a little and looked at her companions who were forced to follow her out with some apology.
"I'm sorry, I was a little too impulsive earlier..."
"--It doesn't matter. Anyway, March has run away many times when he got carried away."
The first person to comfort her was not Wendy or Xing, but Danheng.
The stern-faced young man just looked into the depths of the cave, his tone flat.
"Let's resolve this as soon as possible, and then go back and apologize to the others."
"Everyone will understand you."
Xingze touched Sanyueqi's head, causing her to smile sheepishly and embarrassedly.
Finally, when he looked at Wendy, he looked as if he was "eavesdropping" on something.
"Huh? Did you hear anything?"
March 7 asked curiously.
"Hmm, there are some other sounds in this tunnel..."
There was an amusing curve at the corner of Wendy's mouth.
"If we don't speed up, someone else will probably get the commission first."
"Ah?! Is there someone else?"
March Seventh exclaimed slightly, then tightened his grip on the longbow in his hand, his expression a little serious.
"Then we can't wait any longer. We'll discuss the reasons later when we get back. Let's speed up now!"
——As we went deeper into the cave.
The pioneers saw the corpse of an adventurer lying on the side of the road.
A large amount of flesh had been dug out of the corpse, revealing the white bones underneath. Judging from its condition, it had been rotting for some time. It was most likely the male adventurer mentioned in the commission.
The situation was not optimistic, but March 7 did not stay depressed for too long and continued to move forward.
Soon, everyone discovered some traces of fighting and several goblin corpses.
Judging from the wounds, each one was killed with one blow, and there were very few unnecessary wounds.
Obviously, the people who killed them knew the goblin's physical structure very well, perhaps even better than the goblins themselves.
"The traces go straight ahead, we'll probably run into them soon!"
March 7 continued to search along the bloodstains dripping on the ground, but before finding the mysterious killer, they encountered a large group of goblins.
Each of them held a simple wooden stick or a poisonous knife stained with feces. Their goat-like eyes were filled with dirty and evil thoughts, and their long noses kept moving, sniffing the intoxicating body fragrance of young girls in the air. A small number of them pointed at Wendy and screamed loudly.
The other part kept shaking their heads, but when they saw those two pairs of white silk calves, their mouths began to drool and they looked fascinated.
"Wow, even without a translator, I can probably tell what they're thinking..."
Sanyueqi felt goosebumps all over his body, while Xing couldn't help laughing, as if he was amused that the goblins had mistaken Wendy's gender.
Only the serious Dan Heng held his gun in front and took the vanguard position. However, the cave environment was not very suitable for vigorous spearmanship. He could only drive away the goblins surrounding him, and the ones behind him had to be left to others.
"So, it's better for goblins to die—"
After sighing like this, Wendy also lightly tapped the harp, transforming it into the West Wind Bow. The last time he used the Sky Wings, he always felt that he could not control the power. It would be troublesome if he shot the cave down this time.
Thus, a small encounter began, the process of which is not worth elaborating on.
Most of the goblins couldn't even break through Danheng's defense circle, while March Seven and Wendy kept shooting down the goblins who tried to attack with slingshots.
The remaining small group of goblins that had circled behind were also dealt with easily and neatly by Xing. The remaining goblins who had sensed something was wrong hurriedly fled back to the dark path, but they screamed one after another.
San Yueqi subconsciously aimed at that direction, but before her ice arrow could be shot, a goblin was kicked out of the shadows, its bulging belly was kicked to pieces and its intestines leaked out.
After screaming, it tried to struggle and escape, but the next moment it was hit on the head by a knife and died.
The blood on the goblin's forehead flowed down the ground in small streams until it touched March Seven's shoes. Only then did she wake up in shock and quickly gave a warning.
"who is it!?"
She subconsciously raised her bow and aimed it at the depths of the darkness, her expression somewhat solemn.
She was completely unaware of the other party's existence before he made any move. If he intended to launch a sneak attack, that would be no joke. The pride she had originally felt for showing off her skills on this planet and being praised by others was instantly thrown away, leaving her with only caution.
However, someone else stopped March before she could react.
"March, don't get excited."
Dan Heng lowered the bow in her hand and pointed the lighting equipment in that direction, so that everyone could see the full appearance of the person in the dark.
He was an adventurer wearing extremely worn armor. From the nameplate hanging around his neck, it could be seen that he was a silver-rank adventurer.
He remained silent the entire time, as if his full attention was on the goblins. Only Wendy heard his very quiet murmur, "The eighteenth."
After retrieving the thrown knife from the goblin, he finally raised his head and looked at everyone.
At that moment, everyone seemed to see a vengeful evil spirit, and a flash of bright red eyes seemed to pass by under the helmet mask.
Then, there was a deep and hoarse male voice, with a slightly metallic sound due to the helmet.
"A novice adventurer? No, that's not right—"
He first glanced at the white porcelain nameplates hanging around everyone's necks, but was soon attracted by the corpses of other goblins on the ground. Without exception, most of them were killed in one blow.
Even for him, it took a very long time to master this kind of precise and fierce attack. If a newcomer had just dealt with this wave of attacks, he would have suffered considerable damage. However, none of them were injured, and even their smell was extremely clean.
This meant that most goblins were killed instantly without even touching them.
It is not easy to achieve this even for a silver-level adventurer.
He paused slightly, not quite sure why these people came, but if nothing unexpected happened, they should have accepted the commission to defeat the goblins.
"..."
When both sides fell into a strange silence, the sound of footsteps came from the darkness on the other side, and then a priest of the Earth Mother Goddess with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a priest's uniform, ran out.
She was panting and wanted to say something, but when she saw the group of people, she immediately hid behind the armored man awkwardly and just cautiously stuck her head out to ask.
"Um... Mr. Goblin Slayer? What's going on here?"
"—Commission conflict."
The man known as Goblin Slayer also ended his silence and spoke concisely.
Chapter 130: There Were Some Adventurers
Delegation conflict.
As the name suggests, it means that adventurers on both sides accept the commission at the same time, which causes conflicts during the mission.
This situation is usually caused by the guild's negligence, which resulted in two teams accepting the commission tasks one after the other.
However, the situation on their side is relatively complicated, because he came here following the goblin footprints he had discovered earlier.
He discovered a secret passage in another goblin cave, and with the idea of killing all the goblins, he found this place, and then happened to meet the team that accepted the expedition to this goblin cave.
Although this situation is not common, it is not rare either. At least his encounter with the young priest next to him was a similar coincidence.
However, the difference was that when he arrived, one member of the young priest's team had died, one had been abducted, and another was poisoned and lying waiting to die. In the end, the young priest was the only one who could still be an adventurer.
Although both teams are new, the outcomes for both sides are completely different. Perhaps it’s not just the difference in strength, but also the mockery of the gods.
This thought flashed through his mind, but he did not think about it any further. He just spoke calmly.
"...I can give you the reward for the commission, but I hope you can join me in the next crusade."
After breaking his silence, the man known as Goblin Slayer gave what he thought was the most reasonable option at the moment.
Rather than making enemies with other adventurers for a small reward, he was more concerned about whether he could wipe out the goblins, as he no longer cared much about money.
This group of adventurers, who appear to be very powerful, can increase his efficiency in dealing with goblins many times over. The time saved can allow him to kill more goblins.
The little priest hiding behind her just looked at everyone with a timid and curious look, and he spent the longest time on March Seventh.
Any priest who believes in the compassionate Mother Earth can feel the rich aura of her favor.
Therefore, she even felt that it was rare for Mr. Goblin Slayer to make a good suggestion!
"Uh... there's no problem on our side, but um, how should I put it..."
After reacting, March 7 showed a somewhat tangled or troubled expression.
"what happened?"
Goblin Slayer simply asked coldly.
Of course, this is not because he is dissatisfied with March 7, or because he thinks the other party is greedy. If the other team asks him to leave, he will do so.
