Arcane Lord

After awakening his bloodline, Xia Duo's physique was far beyond the reach of ordinary people. During this battle and chase, Xia Duo hardly felt any difficulty. On the contrary, it was the abnormality in the magic net he checked in the olive grove before that made his brain feel a little... Bloating.

Following the sound, Sha Duo once again found a soldier who was chasing the goblin. When he was about to raise his sword to slash, Sha Duo quickly reminded: "Don't kill it!"

The soldier paused, and the one-handed sword passed over the goblin's head, cutting off half of his ear. The goblin paralyzed on the ground in fear. If the tiger's roar just now was just an stimulation, there was no actual threat. , then the sword on his neck is the most direct threat.

"Soldier, what's your name?"

"My lord, my name is Les."

"Very well, Les, take this goblin back now and watch it carefully. Don't let it die."

"Yes, sir!"

The display of force and magic allowed Sha Duo's orders to be well executed. After giving instructions again, Sha Duo quickly headed towards the direction of the others.

In the end, only three of the ten members of the Uk team, including Rice, caught the goblin. The others were either too exhausted to catch up, or they were directly chased and killed.

After the team gathered together, Uk looked at Sha Duo with an embarrassed look. He had previously boasted that his men were all elite soldiers, but now he couldn't even catch a few goblins. "Master Sha Duo, what's the use of catching these goblins? If it's not enough, , let’s go again tomorrow.”

"Use four of them first. Leave Les and Hori to me, and then take people to clean up the frightened goblins in the back. I'm worried about whether those villagers can make it!"

"Okay, I'll go over then."

…

Horry was the soldier who captured the goblins besides Uk and Les, and he caught two alone, which was in sharp contrast to the others.

At this moment, the two of them were left by Sha Duo to guard the goblins. They were very puzzled by Sha Duo's request to capture these goblins. What was so good about these goblins? They were dirty and smelly low-level creatures, even worse than wild beasts.

But they were also very curious about the use of Xia Duo in catching these goblins. Ordinary people might be too busy doing this, but when a mage did this, they felt that there must be something they didn't know.

Seeing that Xia Duo was still observing these goblins carefully, Les became a little anxious, "Sir, what are you going to do with these four goblins?"

"Don't be busy now, I'll take a look."

These goblins seemed to have quite high intelligence. When they fell into Xia Duo's hands, they were trembling but their little eyes were full of hope.

It seemed that Xia Duo was the one who really decided their fate. When these goblins looked at Xia Duo, in addition to fear, they also felt a little more desire.

"Haha, it is indeed an intelligent creature, but it has been reduced to the level of a beast."

Xia Duo drew out his one-handed sword and stabbed the ground in front of him with his backhand. This action made the four goblins shake violently and huddle together. Xia Duo smiled and said:

"I think you guys should be able to understand human language. I'll count to three, and I'll kill anyone who doesn't nod!"

After saying that, Xia Duo started counting, "1——, 2——, 3!"

After counting 3, Xia Duo raised his sword and stabbed the last nodding goblin, and he could see that only one of these goblins could understand human speech, and the others imitated that one.

Xia Duo asked again: "Why do you gather here? What is attracting you?"

Les and Horry looked at the remaining three goblins curiously, looking forward to their performance. To be honest, they were frightened when Xia Duo said that the goblins could understand human speech.

This is like a domesticated animal suddenly speaking. Even though they knew in advance that goblins were intelligent creatures and could even form settlements and have beliefs, humans had never communicated with goblins.

In other words, humans only use swords to communicate with magic and goblins.

A goblin who can understand human speech?

This is so amazing!

In fact, Xia Duo only asked with the attitude of giving it a try. In the game he played before traveling through time, not only did goblins understand the situation of humans, but also humans understood the situation of goblins.

It's just that here, Shado has never heard of anyone studying the language of goblins. Nether people generally believe that those dirty creatures should not be completely eliminated?

Maybe some senior adventurers have too much experience cleaning up goblins to understand some goblin languages, but that's not Shado.

When asked for the second time, the four goblins nodded in unison, but this was obviously not the result that Xia Duo wanted. He even had some doubts. Was the goblin's nod just now deceptive?

Or can’t understand something too complex? Or did you mean there were no threats?

"Get up off the ground. I'll chop off the ears of the last one standing up!"

brush--

One goblin jumped up from the ground, followed by the second one, and the last one looked at the two companions blankly, and when it wanted to get up, it was already too late——

Xia Duo chopped off its ear with a single strike of his sword. The goblin covered the cut area and kept wailing, and finally tried to escape. Unfortunately, this move caused it to lose an ear again.

The other two goblins witnessed all this, and they said something with unknown meaning, as if they were showing their loyalty or scolding the earless goblin.

In this way, through "education" step by step, Xia Duo made the goblin who understood human language understand the questions he wanted to ask. And under such "education", the other goblin even understood some simple questions. human language.

As for the earless goblin, this ready-made "teaching tool" is already in a damaged state.

When Xia Duo asked them again what attracted them, the two goblins actually told Xia Duo in a show that there was "delicious food" here.

Xia Duo immediately poked the two goblins with the tip of his sword and ordered: "No. 1, take me to the 'delicious food', No. 2, follow."

Then he ordered Les and Horry to notify Uk and ask Uk to temporarily drive the villagers into the olive grove.

Although the two goblins didn't communicate well and didn't know what the so-called "delicious food" was, from them, Xia Duo at least knew that there must be human factors involved in this goblin's abnormal behavior.

Otherwise, what a coincidence, it didn't happen before and suddenly it happened this year?

And those villagers look at the olive groves every day. What if they really don’t know anything about it?

Of course, Xia Duo also believed that the number of insiders must be small. He almost believed that it was the village chief. If he was the mastermind behind the incident, he would definitely be the first step to drag the village chief into trouble or threaten the village chief.

Once the village chief is taken care of, the other people will naturally be taken care of by the village chief, which is efficient and reduces the risk of his own exposure.

…

After Rice and Horry left, Xia Duo escorted the goblins back alone, but two people were missing. The two goblins' minds were obviously more active.

Not only was he dilly-dallying while walking, but he also looked around from time to time, seeming to have forgotten Xia Duo's threat.

Only when Xia Duo poked them with the tip of his sword, they would scream a few times, then behave for a while, and then return to their old ways, being stung by the tip of the sword again, and calm down.

"well--"

Xia Duo suddenly felt that this creature was so disgusting!

No wonder the Nether people speak with swords when they see goblins. In addition to destroying farmland, stealing crops, being dirty and ugly, and having low IQ, this naughty character also makes them difficult to tame.
