Mercenaries and Adventurers

A group of goblins approached and saw dead goblins lying one after another on the wet ground. This made the goblins stop, and when another team of goblins approached, the two teams merged into one, and their number greatly exceeded that of Zhao Ji, before they gathered in a group and slowly approached .

Zhao Ji couldn't understand the various yells from the goblins, but looking at the hideous faces of those goblins, he could tell that they might be cursing him.

Just leave them alone, after all, they will be killed by Zhao Jiji later, so it's good to let them have a good time now.

While these goblins were slowly approaching him and cursing, Zhao Ji was accumulating energy through slow but powerful breathing. The battle to wait for would take longer. The more energy he had, the easier it would be to wait.

Zhao Ji raised his spear to his waist, but he quickly gave up. The few times he used such attacks before, Zhao Ji would lose the right to use the weapon in a short period of time because the spear got stuck in the body of the victim.

This doesn't work, he has to find another way.

Although a simple stab is very deadly, its flexibility is very poor. Zhao Ji looked at the goblins gathered in a group more than ten meters away. Their thin leaves and clothes and the defensive effect were better than none. Head blades also seem to make effective attacks.

But his long spear is the type specially used for stabbing. The blade of the long spear is quite short, and the effective attack surface is insufficient, which may make it more difficult for him to use the long spear.

Zhao Ji licked the corner of his mouth, then he thought about it, he was wearing armor, so there was nothing to be afraid of. The current situation is just right to practice his spear skills.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ji made a decision to hold the spear with both hands, but instead of holding both hands at the lower end of the spear, he held both hands at the middle of the spear. He picked up the spear horizontally, and walked towards the pile of goblins on the opposite side.

----

The goblins panicked briefly when they saw humans approaching them first, but they still mustered up the courage to fight when they saw their people all around them.

Under the order of the spear goblin, several goblin coolies attacked Zhao Ji first with sticks in their hands.

Zhao Ji stepped sideways and took two steps, turning the goblins who were rushing towards him in a straight line to face him, Zhao Ji held his spear tightly and stabbed at the nearest goblin. go.

Puff, Zhao Ji held the gun firmly with both hands, and accurately hit the Goblin's chest just below the stomach and liver. Chunks of offal.

The goblin fell to the ground in pain, let go of the wooden stick in his hand, and hugged his stomach tightly, hoping that the blood flowing out of his stomach would not be so much.

Zhao Ji was a little dissatisfied after receiving the gun, because although the gun definitely caused fatal injuries to the goblin, it is estimated that if the goblin does not move again, he can live for a while and will not die immediately.

A goblin behind the stabbed goblin picked up the wooden stick thrown by his companion on the ground, and threw it directly at the opposite humanoid monster.

Zhao Ji didn't hide, it was really unnecessary.

With a small slap, the wooden stick hit Zhao Ji's shoulder, which was blocked by the thick leather armor on the shoulder. Zhao Ji even only felt a small thrust from the shoulder, and nothing else.

The wooden stick is not heavy, and there are no sharp spikes on it, so it is difficult to cause any decent damage to Zhao Ji.

Aiming the spear slightly at the goblin who dared to fight back, Zhao Ji stepped back a few steps to give him a little more time to aim.

Aim and stab!

Zhao Ji's attack was very fast, but the goblin on the opposite side seemed to know that he was going to be attacked next, so this goblin also stared at Zhao Ji's gun head closely,

When he saw the humanoid monster on the opposite side about to attack, he immediately dodged to the side.

Zhao Ji's shot missed nothing. He immediately pulled the spear horizontally, but knocked down another goblin who wanted to surround Zhao Ji.

This sideways pull directly hit the goblin's neck, causing the goblin to lie down on the ground, with one hand on Bo's neck and the other on his forehead to relieve dizziness.

Originally, Zhao Ji wanted to take a stab and stab the fallen goblin to death. But the other two goblins rounded their sticks and hit Zhao Ji.

They thought that in this way, the humanoid monster would definitely give up attacking and defend first. But Zhao Ji still shot the stunned goblin on the ground.

This shot pierced the opponent's hand and forehead skull from top to bottom, and ended the goblin's life with one shot.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Ji received two blows with a wooden stick, one on Zhao Ji's arm and one on Zhao Ji's waist. The two goblins originally wanted to hit Zhao Ji on the head, but the height difference between humans and goblins made it impossible for them to hit Zhao Ji's head unless they used long weapons.

The blow to the arm was nothing, but the blow to the waist made Zhao Ji fall two steps forward involuntarily.

After slowing down for a while and regaining his stability, Zhao Ji swung the spear horizontally in a circle, forcing the two goblins away.

Opening up the distance again, Zhao Ji was about to launch another attack. But the eleven goblins not far away rushed towards him together.

As they impacted, they made strange screams.

You rush at me, knowing that you can't be entangled by goblins. Zhao Ji ran wildly, slanted his shoulders and slammed into the group of goblins who were also rushing on the opposite side.

With a loud bang, Zhao Ji knocked into the air the two goblins before and after, and rushed out of the goblin's encirclement. Interestingly, in this way, he and the goblin just switched positions.

The spear goblins lacked command ability. After they gave the order to charge, they had no chance to command other goblins, because after the other goblin coolies rushed up, they waved their weapons indiscriminately to attack the other goblins. Blind forward.

Zhao Ji, who turned around, stabbed the two goblins who were knocked into the air with a gun. Then he turned around and swung away a bone spear stabbed by a spear goblin. As soon as he swung an attack, another spear goblin's bone spear stabbing followed one after another.

Zhao Ji had no choice but to blow away all the stabs that attacked him several times in succession.

This is not the way, the remaining nine goblins are gathering together and rushing towards him. Zhao Ji had no choice but to approach a spear goblin directly after swinging away another stab.

Without giving the other party a chance to draw out the wooden club around his waist, Zhao Ji jumped up, retracted the knee of one leg, and slammed into the spear goblin's body fiercely.

Zhao Ji and its weight were not on the same line. Zhao Ji's knee bump directly knocked it far away. When Ye Luo fell, it happened to cover the goblin's head and face.

After knocking a goblin into the air, Zhao Ji faced the bone spear that was stabbing again, and tried to avoid it sideways. At the same time, the long spear used the sideways movement, turned half a circle, and hit the long spear goblin directly. .

The opponent's bone spear rubbed deeply against Zhao Ji's chest leather armor, and the water droplets stained on Zhao Ji's chest were blown away by the vibration. Zhao Ji only felt a tightness in his chest, but when he looked down, the armor was only left with a scratch.

Not a big problem.

On the other side, the goblin who was hit by Zhao Ji's counterattack fell to the ground rubbing his arms.

Zhao Ji went up with a big kick, passed a big kick from the back and forward, and kicked the Goblin's neck that was sitting on the ground.

There was a coughing sound.

Zhao Ji used all his strength to kick the goblin's neck, and a big green head flew out with a deformed expression of surprise on his face.

The powerful force even caused several fangs on the goblin's gums to fly out, flying randomly in the air.

The other goblins saw that the humanoid monster killed one of their squad leaders so brutally, while the other squad leader was still lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

This time, among the remaining goblins, whoever shouted and ran away first. The other goblins froze for a moment, then fled in all directions.

Seeing that this was not going to work, Zhao Ji took a big step, thrust his spear forward, and stabbed down a fleeing goblin. This time, he tried his best to hold back his strength when stabbing the opponent, and only let the spear head pierce through the opponent, instead of letting the spear head pass through the opponent's body and let the spear get stuck.

After chasing and stabbing the two goblins, Zhao Ji felt that he still had problems with using the spear. When he stabbed the spear out, he still used too much force, so he had to use more force to retract the force he used. .

Once back and forth, he used twice as much effort.

During the pursuit, Zhao Ji continued to attack while trying to improve his shooting power and accuracy.

It is best to shoot the gun just enough to kill the goblin with one shot. If it was too much, he would have to use all his strength to retract the spear, if it was too little, he would only stab the goblin with one shot. The goblin who was stabbed ran even more vigorously.

The accuracy of firing the gun is something that Zhao Ji suddenly realized in the battle just now. The goblin's body is similar to that of a human, and there are many fatal weaknesses on the body. At the same time, different parts of the body are soft and hard. One shot at the soft part can send the spear head through the body. And if you shoot at a hard place, you will probably not be able to hit it, or the tip of the gun will be stuck and you will not be able to retract it.

But there are many hard places that are weaknesses. The goblins who fled with their backs facing Zhao Ji, their spines just fell under Zhao Ji's attack. This place is quite hard, but once they hit the spear head and break in, the fleeing goblins will immediately fall and wait. died.

In this pursuit and killing, Zhao Ji failed to kill all of them. Although he was much faster than the goblins on the slippery and cold fallen leaves, the goblins fled separately, which still caused him a lot of trouble.

In the end, three goblins fled to the depths of the forest and disappeared. Those goblins were familiar with everything around them, so they estimated that they would return to their settlement soon, bringing back the news of their defeat this time.

I don't know whether the goblin settlement will send a large number of armed goblins out to fight again, or wait for the rain to stop.

Zhao Ji thinks it should be the latter.

Because humans and goblins are fighting in this slippery and cold environment, it is obvious that humans have the upper hand. Humans are more able to tolerate the cold than them, taller, can move faster in thick leaves, and so on.

So today's battle is probably over.

Zhao Ji breathed a lot of white steam, put away the spear, pulled the goblin's corpses, and gathered them as much as possible.

Returning to the place where the backpack was placed before, Zhao Ji took out the rope, pulled out the dagger, and began to decapitate the goblin corpses one by one. These are his trophies, both money and honor.

There were nearly forty goblin heads in a row, and Zhao Ji had to drag them back to the place where the cart was hidden.

During the journey, Zhao Ji felt that something in the forest was staring at him fiercely, full of malice. The goblin who didn't know where he was hiding was watching him closely.

But never mind, he'll be back soon.

Zhao Ji put the goblin's head on the cart and wanted to go back in the rain, but when the cart was being pushed in the woods, Zhao Ji found out. The wheels of the cart were completely sunk in the soft ground.

There was no way, Zhao Ji couldn’t carry the cart and goblin’s head back together, so he had no choice but to change to a place where he could hide from the rain and prepare to wait for the rain to pass.

Then he set off again.

----

Zhao Ji found a tree hole to hide. The barrow was laid down on the ground and piled up with thick fallen leaves, and the smelly goblin head was covered with a rainproof raincoat and placed outside the tree hole. The raincoat was dark, so it was not easy to be found in the woods.

Zhao Ji braved the rain to clean up the traces left by his walking, and then returned to the tree hole, took off his armor and wiped it clean.

Many parts of the body were soaked, but fortunately the torso of the body was still dry. Zhao Ji twisted it several times before he dried himself. He didn't dare to start a fire, so he could only wait slowly for the water vapor on his body to be dissipated by his body temperature.

After simply eating some dried meat and drinking water, Zhao Ji was finally exhausted.

In order to prevent possible sneak attacks by goblins, Zhao Ji put on the wiped armor again, and after covering the tree hole well, he pulled out the long sword in his hand and fell asleep.

He had another dream about fairies.

The elves gathered animals and intelligent creatures one by one in a spacious room with stone walls. Strangely, the luminous blood drawn from their elves themselves is magically injected into the bodies of animals and intelligent creatures.

Many animals died, and some changed into huge mutants, and even fewer animals glowed, releasing simple magic.

The elves were very happy, and they celebrated it.

It's a pity that all the intelligent creatures didn't respond, which made them very puzzled.

Until one day, in addition to the few elves that Zhao Ji saw, another elf with a higher status joined in.

Things have changed.
