No, because the results haven't come out yet.
I mean, the result of the orcs killing us.
As long as they don't return, the goblins won't be able to confirm their victory.
They said they died in the forest, but their bodies could not be found.
But while they didn't die in battle, they didn't bring back any heads.
"What if goblins killed their family members, but then brought the heads back?"
Taking action against their family members rashly would be a violation of the agreement for both parties.
"This will only incite rebellion among the orcs," An'i explained.
"So what if we rebelled? We only killed one of their family members. The goblins might even use this as an opportunity to hasten their slaughter of us, wouldn't they?" the Hammer Hero said in a deep voice.
“Yes, and goblins are so cunning, how could they possibly keep their promise? They'd be happier seeing the orcs suffer, wouldn't they?” the Leaf Warrior chimed in.
"This is all thanks to you," An Yi suddenly said to the Leaf Hero.
"Huh? Me?" Ye Zhiyong was taken aback.
"Yes, you left a lot of leaves at the scene, almost burying the whole area."
That was the only sign of a struggle. Si
The goblins, besides waiting for the results, had no idea whether the orcs were alive or dead, and had no way of gleaning any information from the fallen leaves.
"Even if it's against the agreement, they'll only have the right to torment the orcs after they return."
Therefore, rather than taking immediate action, goblins will wait a while.
During this time, they will investigate signs of the fight and the whereabouts of the beastmen to prevent them from escaping.
"We won't act rashly until they figure out what's going on," Annie explained. 6
Although goblins are known for their brutality and bloodthirstiness, seeing a large area of bare trees and leaves scattered on the ground...
Their first reaction must have been bewilderment.
In fact, goblins, regardless of their stage, enjoy torturing people. Even the Goblin King and Goblin Servant enjoy seeing their prey suffer and despair.
Unlike low-level goblins, high-level goblins behave logically.
In other words, after sending out orcs, finding traces of battle, and investigating those traces, their next action would not be to kill.
It's impossible for it to turn into something as illogical and nonsensical as, "Wow! The battlefield is covered in leaves! Great! Let's go back and kill all the orcs' families!"
This is the first time they've encountered something like this, and they'll discuss and think about how to handle it in a short time.
Advanced goblins think and consider the consequences; they need time to plan rather than killing people indiscriminately.
Rather, what's the point of killing someone when nothing has been concluded yet?
Is it really necessary to just vent your anger?
Of course, it can't be delayed for too long.
Since the goblins weren't monitoring the orcs this time, the orcs might have run away.
If they've been gone for too long and there are no further signs of fighting, it's quite normal to assume they've fled.
It's not that we don't want to monitor them, but hunting humans doesn't feel like hunting wild animals.
Ordinary goblins couldn't keep up with the orcs' speed, while advanced goblins were too conspicuous, so they simply let the orcs roam freely.
The heroes were skeptical after hearing An Yi's words, after all, the enemy was a goblin, and who knew what was going on in its mind.
……
Within just a few hours, the goblins had been dispatched to the scene of the battle to investigate.
Although they couldn't track and monitor the entire process, the goblins responsible for observation couldn't possibly miss such a commotion in the forest.
To prevent any accidents, the observing goblin reported the situation to the nearest goblin centurion.
The Goblin Centurion then went to report to the Goblin Champion, and this back-and-forth took quite a bit of time.
Four hours had already passed by the time the Goblin Champion arrived with his team to search and investigate.
To be on the safe side, the Goblin Champion found another Goblin Champion to accompany him, saying that if they encountered humans and couldn't defeat them, they could at least escape.
They heard at the meeting that humans could kill a goblin king servant with a single blow, so wouldn't they be slaughtered by the goblin goblins if they went there alone?
They finally arrived at the site of the battle, only to find that all the leaves on the trees had fallen.
They all fell to the ground, piling up in layers, and the leaves themselves had a scent, which to some extent interfered with their sense of smell.
A radius of one kilometer is a considerable area for goblins.
After searching for another two hours, they finally found some bloodstains on the ground, which was covered by leaves.
It's orc blood.
Aside from the leaves scattered all over the ground, this bloodstain was the only sign of battle.
"Are those livestock dead?" (goblin language)
"I don't know, keep searching! We need to find them alive or dead! Don't miss a single corner!"
It wasn't just the heroes who were anxious; the goblins were anxious too.
4. Releasing a group of orcs out was actually a way to "make an example of them".
San sent the orcs to fight against the humans, letting the humans know that there were still many such powerful and advanced combat forces among the goblins, thereby delaying the time for the other side to attack the Empire.
Even the mighty Goblin King was terrified when he heard that the other party had killed the Goblin King's servant in one hit.
What they can do now is to spend as little time as possible allowing the empire to recover its strength.
At the very least, the number of Goblin Kings and Goblin Champions must be restored to normal.
……
Having found the exact location of the [Thousand Heroes] in the guild, Milu quickly set off.
According to the detailed information provided by the guild, the [Thousand Heroes] are not like other heroes who go to fight and subdue the demons, but rather...
Did you open a workshop in your own city?
Oh no, rather, she was already running a workshop before being chosen as the hero.
It's worth noting that, like Miluko, she is a brave woman from a big city.
According to the information, her parents were killed by demons when she was young, which should be the reason why she wants to fight against demons.
but……
What kind of effort does making dolls count as in the fight against the demons?
For example, someone who wants to defeat the demons will want to exercise their body, while someone who wants to defeat the demons will learn magic.
Making dolls doesn't seem to have anything to do with defeating demons.
Moreover, even after being chosen as the hero, the other party has not left the city where they live.
I haven't had any contact with any demons, so I'm still only level 1.
On the way, Milu was also thinking that since the other party's parents were killed by the demons, their desire for revenge should be very strong.
It's been almost four months since he was chosen as the hero, and he's still holed up at home, which is a bit unreasonable.
"but……"
Perhaps it's because of fear.
Miluko had also considered leaving the Hero Squad out of fear.
If she had chosen to stay instead of leave back then, she would probably be like this "Thousand-Man Warrior" now, staying at home for more than half a year without making any progress.
Now, she is somewhat glad that she stayed.
Although she hadn't achieved anything significant, she could clearly feel that she was being trusted and needed.
There are some things that only she can do!
Thinking of this, Milu chuckled to herself.
Although she's not very useful, she's still somewhat useful!
Suddenly, a little devil popped into her mind.
"Don't get too cocky, you idiot!"
Milu quickly shook her head, bringing her thoughts back to reality.
Yes! Don't get carried away!
Don't get complacent over a small thing!
She's far from mature enough!
It's almost dawn.
As dawn breaks, light soon covers the earth again, sometimes even as quickly as it can be.
But this is not good news for Miluko.
The approaching dawn meant that she had already spent a considerable amount of time on her journey.
The more time is spent, the more dangerous it becomes for the beastmen's families.
If possible, she wouldn't want to sacrifice any innocent person.
On the sparsely populated street, Miluko munched on pastries while looking at a map.
If she wasn't blind, the shop a few meters away, filled with dolls dressed in various costumes, should be where the [Thousand Heroes] were located.
Even through the glass, you can still tell that the life-size dolls displayed in the store are actually dolls.
Even with excellent craftsmanship and high-quality materials, saying it's 99% human-like is still an exaggeration.
And... how do you even fool a goblin with this thing? Part Two
But we've already come all this way, we can't just go back like this, can we?
The situation is critical; there's no better way than to try anything as a last resort!
