Wright took the gold coin and said to Chris.
“It’s fine. Please leave now. Don’t disturb our rest.”
He supported the village chief who had been standing for a long time and slowly entered the room.
At this moment, he didn’t know that Chris had brought troops here to kill the goblins.
The commander standing next to Chris couldn’t hold back anymore and shouted angrily.
“Do you have any manners? How can you talk to our military advisor like that?”
Chris hurriedly blocked the commander with his hand and gestured.
“Don’t be rash. We offended them first. Let’s go elsewhere to take a look.”
Soon, Chris found a flat place at the foot of the mountain and arranged for the soldiers to set up tents and set up camp. The three soldiers took turns to be on duty.
The night breeze blew past, and crickets chirped from time to time. The stars in the night sky sparkled, and occasionally, a few meteors streaked across the night sky.
It was dawn. On this day, Chris ordered the soldiers to raise their spirits and go up the mountain.
On the mountain, he surveyed the surrounding terrain. He held the map in his hand and pondered. Soon, he had an idea.
First, he arranged for some scouts to secretly search the goblin tribe on the mountain to find the location of the goblins.
Half a day had passed, but there was still no news from the scout. Chris seemed a little anxious and restless.
If Chris couldn’t find the goblins” tribe, his plan to kill the goblins would fail.
About an hour later, the scout came to report.
A smile appeared on his face.
“Report, military advisor. According to our search, we found that the goblins’ tribe is in an extremely hidden cave in a crack in the boulder. The cave is relatively large, and there are nearly a hundred goblins hiding inside.”
Chris laughed.
“Alright, we’re halfway to success after discovering the goblin tribe.”
Then, he observed a depression not far from the cave and asked the soldiers to put dozens of bags of fake food and dozens of empty treasure chests filled with gold coins.
The chests and sacks were filled with straw, stones, and fuel.
Some real gold coins and food were scattered on the ground, meant to confuse the goblin and make them think that there were gold coins and food in the sacks.
Fifteen archers set up an ambush on the rocks surrounding the depression, each of their arrows were covered in fuel.
Then, he asked the faster soldiers to bring two bags of real food and gold coins to the Goblin’s cave.
He arranged for the soldiers to deliberately let the goblins discover them and use them as bait to lure the goblins to the depression.
In addition, he arranged for 15 archers to lie in ambush around the cave to prevent the escaping Goblins from entering the cave again.
Chris said.
“As long as the Goblins reach the depression, they will never return.”
Everything was ready, and they began to move.
The soldier with gold coins and food walked to the entrance of the goblin cave and found a few goblins playing.
The soldiers threw some food over. One of the goblins found the food and called his companions over. They did not know where the food came from, which confused the goblins.
Then, the soldier threw some gold coins over and deliberately revealed their figures and made some noise.
Soon, the goblins discovered a few soldiers hiding at the entrance of the cave.
“Chee chee… (Goblin language: What’s there?)”
The goblins moved closer.
The soldiers broke into a run, then threw some food and gold coins as they ran, all the way to the hidden depression.
The goblins did not chase after them immediately.
Instead, he immediately reported the situation to the elder.
Elder goblin was very puzzled, so he arranged for a few Goblins to go out and scout.
The goblins who had gone out to scout had been chasing after the gold coins that the soldiers had dropped. When they saw a large pile of treasure chests and food, they walked over.
At this moment, Chris, who was secretly observing, saw three goblins running over.
Obviously, the number of Goblins running over was not enough for them to attack. Chris did not order the archers to shoot, but chose to wait.
The goblins on the depression discussed.
“Chee chee choo choo… (So many gold coins and food)”
Due to the tight packaging, the goblins did not realize that the treasure chests and cloth bags were filled with stones and straw.
A goblin tried to carry the treasure chest and cloth bag away but realized that they were too heavy and could not be moved. Hence, he ran back to the cave and reported this matter to the elder.
After hearing this, the elder was very happy and said to the other goblins.
“Chee chee choo choo… ( Little ones, there’s a lot of gold coins and food outside our cave. Big guys, help move them into the cave.)”
The greedy goblins had fallen for the trap. They didn’t think about anything but gold coins.
As expected, everything was going according to the plan.
A large number of goblins ran out of the cave. Chris counted carefully and estimated that there were hundreds of them.
When most of the goblins arrived at the depression and were about to open the treasure chests and cloth bags,
He made a prompt decision and shouted an order, “Light the fire and shoot!”
Boom… Boom… Boom…
In an instant, dozens of rockets shot into the depression.
Dozens of arrows were shot at the same time. Some of them hit the treasure chest, some hit the cloth bag, and some hit the goblins.
The depression immediately turned into a sea of fire. The temperature was extremely high.
The goblins now realized that he had been tricked.
However, it was already too late. The sound of yelling and wailing filled the air. Some were burned to death, some were injured, and some fled.
“Everyone, charge! Kill!” Waves of killing cries spread throughout the depression.
In an instant, all the soldiers rushed down.
The soldiers swung their weapons at the goblins, who were scared out of their wits.
In addition, some goblins ran towards the cave.
However, as soon as the goblins reached the entrance of the cave, they were shot to death by the archers lying in ambush outside the cave.
An hour later, all the goblins, including the goblin elder, were killed.
However, there was still one goblin that had escaped.
Chris had eliminated all of the goblin forces in Boulder Ruins.
Two days later, a villager from Boulder Village at the foot of the mountain heard the news and was overjoyed.
Hence, he ran around the village and promoted it to every family.
“The goblins have been killed by the warriors. The goblins have been killed by the warriors. We don’t have to worry anymore!”
When Wright heard the news, he was overjoyed.
According to the villager, Wright found out it was Chris who came to the village two nights ago who led the warrior army to exterminate the goblins.
At this moment, Wright’s heart was ignited with a belief and a goal.
He wanted to join the warrior army and fight for justice for the rest of his life.
