Chapter 80: booty

Barrett looked at the goblin bear who was kneeling in front of him with a begging look in his eyes, and kept saying "I surrender" in common language, and couldn't help but feel a little curious.

But he didn't let his guard down because of this. This goblin bear is quite skilled. If he were an ordinary adventurer, he would not be able to deal with it. Barrett put the 'Iron Bride' around the opponent's neck, and the cold light of the blade made the latter tremble involuntarily.

The little green-skinned guys around, who had few leftovers, saw that the sturdy bear goblin they were relying on was defeated, they immediately dropped their weapons (twigs, sticks, etc.) and ran away screaming. . Only a few daring ones remained behind the oak tree in the distance, sticking out half of their heads from time to time to observe the development of the incident.

"How can you speak Common?" Barret walked around the goblin bear, and the saber in his hand also circled around the goblin bear's neck.

"Yes, my lord." Goblin Bear replied with a frightened expression, "In addition to Common and Goblin languages, I can speak a small amount of Orc."

Its common language is very fluent, and it also has a reflex that is unique to the southern region of the Griffin Kingdom. "You can speak Orcish? Let's listen to it with a few words."

The goblin bear had a look of embarrassment on his face. After saying "Gar\'mak (suffering, he lowered his head and thought for a long time, "Lok-Narash! (Take up arms he said again.

It seems that it is indeed a small amount. In other words, it only understands a few words in the Orcish language, Barret thought to himself.

He also speaks part of the Orcish language himself, and simple communication is not a problem, and he also has a lot of words that are only used when provoking and cursing.

"Who taught you this?" Barrett asked again.

So, the goblin bear kneeling on the ground briefly recounted its own past experience with the effort of a meal.

Heh, he was actually a former colleague, which made Barrett have a little affection for the bear goblin in front of him. He recalled that a few years ago, he seemed to have vaguely heard other people in the Bay of Pigs mention that there was an adventurer party with goblin bears into the misty forest, but the name 'Hunting Horn' was not well-known in the Bay of Pigs. .

It should be a team of adventurers from other parts of the Griffin Kingdom who want to try their luck in the foggy forest.

Listening to the description of this goblin bear, the team of adventurers called 'Hunting Horn' should be quite capable. They have been to many places and completed many difficult tasks, which makes them confident in their own strength. Therefore, when the 'Hunting Horn' went to the foggy forest, he did not ask for a guide, nor did he cooperate with other teams, so he entered the forest rashly.

There are not a few teams like this. There are always many adventurer teams who are too confident in their own strength, but they meet with blood in the foggy forest. Barrett shook his head.

After mourning a heartbeat of silence for the disappearing team of adventurers, the Hunting Horn, Barrett began to think about what to do with the goblin bear in front of him.

To kill, or not to kill? There was some hesitation in his heart.

Under normal circumstances, Barrett kills this kind of alien with a single sword, but the goblin bear in front of him can speak fluent common language, better than the ogre Moglock trained by the mage. Obviously, the owner of the circus must have put a lot of effort into training it.

Moreover, it has also been an adventurer. This experience cannot be faked. Barrett is a veteran in the group of adventurers. He can judge from the details that this bear goblin did not deceive him.

More importantly, it sticks to the bottom line for the robbery of the 'Corn Village', without causing any fatalities, and this goblin bear has already thrown down his weapon and knelt down to beg for mercy. Although Barrett is not a knight, he is not used to it. under the circumstances.

He prefers to end the opponent in battle. According to the dwarf assassin, he bestows mercy on the opponent. No matter what dastardly means were used when arms crossed, he had peace of mind, but now...

I am an adventurer, not an executioner. Barrett said to himself in his heart.

"You want me to spare your life?" he asked nonsense.

The goblin bear hurriedly nodded vigorously. This action caused a small incision on its neck by the weapon mounted on it. The blood was left along the wound and dyed its brown fur, and the frightened goblin bear immediately froze. Do not move.

"If I spare your life, I mean, if." Barrett emphasized, "What are you going to do in the future?"

What will you do in the future? The question put a blank look on the face of the goblin bear, apparently not thinking about such a profound question before.

The goblin bear thought for a moment, "No adventurer team wants me anymore." It whispered, "Maybe I should find a circus to join in. I'm good at drilling fire rings, and I'm good at dancing with bears." It stopped abruptly when it said, "Well...that bear needs to be able to dance first, yes, that's important."

Most of the circuses are on tour around the world. It's really not easy to find them if you want to find them, and it's not a good home.

For this kind of alien race, the Muya city-state is actually the best place to go, but this place is too far from the city-state at the feet of the mage.

"Get out of here," Barrett said. "Take your little ones to places where there are few humans. Otherwise, even if I don't kill you today, you'll be killed by other adventurers one day, you know. ,I am telling the truth."

After humans became the masters of the continent, the territory of each human kingdom and city-state was extremely vast. The kings tried desperately to divide up more territory, but in fact their subjects only inhabited a very small part of the kingdom. The other, larger, less-traveled places are populated by gnolls, ogres, goblins, kobolds, saurians, and many others. They are like weeds, sporadically living in those places.

This is also the main reason why the adventurer profession has always been popular.

"Yes, my lord," replied the goblin bear gratefully, "I will leave here, go south, and after crossing the swamp, there will be a jungle, where there are many manticores entrenched in the jungle, but there are absolutely no humans." Its words, the expression on the face of the goblin bear gradually faded, "There are no humans there and a large area nearby, I have been there. I will settle down there in the future..."

It can be seen that that is not the life it wants.

Barret couldn't bear it. "If you have the perseverance, you can also go to the Muya city-state. There are many aliens living there, ogres, trolls, kobolds, and even drow." He pointed to the bear goblin Another way.

"I've heard of that place." Goblin Bear's eyes lit up, "I just don't know how to get there."

"From here, go east, go all the way to the east, the city-state of Muya is in the center of the mainland. I suggest you not to take the big road, because your life may be at risk." Barrett said, he didn't actually think that this A goblin bear can really go, "If luck really favors you, so that you are not killed by humans or other monsters, and you are not starved to death because you get lost or can't find food, after half a year, you may arrive. Muya city-state."

The goblin bear was refreshed, "East!" It looked in one direction, but that direction was actually north.

Barrett can't handle so much, and it is the limit of what he can do to kindly let it live. "Now, get up." He took the 'Iron Bride' back into her 'boudoir', "Take me to your lair, Although I won't kill you, I will take some of your collections as a reward. You have been an adventurer, and you should know that this is the rule."

"Yes, my lord, I understand." Goblin Bear stood up obediently, "The old captain of 'Hunting Horn' once taught me that if an adventurer doesn't loot loot after defeating a monster, then he is not A qualified adventurer."

Barrett nodded, agreeing to this statement. It can be seen that this goblin bear does not have much scheming.

The goblin's lair is not far from the battle site. After entering, what you see is a broken house made of stones, branches and rags, about the height of the bear goblins, saying that the house is too inappropriate , the nest built by the sparrow is better than it.

"The house I built for the first time was amazing. Really, I learned how to pitch tents and build wooden houses at the circus, and I'm very good at it!" Seeing Barrett's contemptuous eyes, Goblin Bear hurriedly explained, "However, the militias destroyed it. They come every year and tear it down every year, so I don't bother to work on it anymore."

In addition to this room, there are scattered small tents made of branches and leaves throughout the goblin lair. The number of tents is not enough for all goblins to live in, not even half of them. Obviously, more goblins can only sleep in On the ground in the open air~www.readwn.com~ But now this problem has been solved perfectly by Barrett, and now the tents of the goblins are absolutely sufficient!

The goblins led Barret across their lair and under a ash tree. At the root of that tree, the goblin bear dug up a small package and handed it to Barrett.

"This is what I earned when I was an adventurer." The Goblin Bear said sullenly.

Barrett opened it and found that it was actually full of gold coins! He made a rough estimate and was stunned to find that there were more than one hundred gold coins. It seems that the Hunting Horn has not treated it like the head of the circus over the years.

So many gold coins are undoubtedly a huge sum of money. If other adventurers know the news, Barrett is sure that the bear goblin will definitely not survive for a long time.

With so much money to steal corn, Barret couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic to the goblin bear. As long as it takes out a small amount of gold coins, it can buy all the corn planted by all the farmers in the 'corn village' for a year. How can it be so abject?

Barrett counted twenty gold coins out of them, hesitated, and took back five. He returned the fifteen gold coins to the goblin bear, "Take these as your travel expenses, if you want to go to Muya city-state."

And the other gold coins in the package were put into the space ring by Barrett.

Nord has a saying, "What kind of sound is made, what kind of echo will be heard."

This is about the situation in front of Barrett. He originally wanted to help the villagers of the 'Corn Village' solve the troublesome problem of goblins without any compensation, but he did not expect to get such a rich trophy in the end.

This proverb is too true, he thought with joy.
