"Whoa!"
The team had just set out when a long horn sounded suddenly from behind.
The sound was very faint, barely audible if one didn't listen carefully.
Yet, the goblins walking in the forest all stopped iracks.
They turned around, looking towards the dire of the tribe with expressions of surprise and uainty.
"Boss, it's the tribe's horn!"
The sound of the horn brought aed look to Gobu Qiang's face.
He khe boss po make a move against the lizardmen in the s.
Meanwhile, in the goblin tribe by the riverbank forest.
The war horn ochtower sounded again.
Li Meng stood at the entrance of the wooden house, squinting at the watchtower not far away.
After more than three months, it was time to deal with the threat of the s lizardmen.
Gng sideways, Li Meng looked at Benben, who was lying outside the wooden house, sn away.
Benben's massive body was already a set ray armor.
The armor ce reached 90%.
Chest pte, back pte, hand guards, arm guards, leg guards, a total of 26 pieces of armor of various sizes covered the entire body.
Except for the joints, crotch, and underarms, which were not armored.
Every other part was tightly covered by armor.
Even that big head was encased in a huge full-cover helmet.
How to put it, Benben seemed to really like that helmet.
After all, the ogre's only weakness was its eyes.
And the helmet's visor was grid-shaped.
Though it would affect vision, it could protect the eyes.
ons like bows and arrows would find it hard tet Benben's eyes.
Wearing it while sleeping also gave Benben a sense of security.
With this set of armor on, Beurned into a big iron man.
Though it was a bit less than a fully armored knight from Earth's Middle Ages, it wasn't far off.
Benben's on was a giant spiked club.
The club was entirely cast from low-carbon steel.
Its length was nearly five meters, matg Benben's height.
The club was covered with sharp spikes.
If it smashed down, anyone would be turned into meat paste.
The armor and spiked club together weighed a terrifying 1.3 tons.
A weight of over a ton was absolutely unbearable for humans.
But fiant like Benben, a ton of weight was roughly equivalent to 20 pounds for a human.
Time passed bit by bit, and the sound of the war horn brought the hunting party bae after another.
Oernoon of the third day, in the forest of the tribe.
In front of the rgest wooden house, there was a hubbub.
More than a thousand goblins made the nearby forest crowded.
At a gnce, a tinuous stretch of green-skinned goblins could be seen.
Some goblins held long spears, while others carried crossbows.
"War, lizardmen, kill!"
Standing at the entrance of the wooden house, Li Meng said just oence.
As soon as he spoke, the goblins showed excited expressions.
"Kill, kill!"
The goblins raised their ons high, shouting loudly.
The unified shouts echoed through the forest, startling birds into flight.
"Move out!"
Li Meng waved his hand, giving the order to march.
Over thirteen hundred goblins turned and surged towards the western forest.
This movement was like a green wave sweeping through the forest.
The rumbling footsteps echoed through the forest.
Acc to the future predicted by the simuted life, Li Meng began the campaign against the s.
Before long, the otion in the western forest gradually faded away.
The m, in the riverbank forest.
A rge group of goblins was marg through the dim forest.
tless green figures filled every er of the forest.
Under such a massive number, evero magical beasts would retreat.
Among the green masses was an even rger figure.
Wherever it passed, the lower branches and leaves were forcibly pushed aside.
Sometimes the branches would break, making a "crack" sound.
"Where is the turning point?"
Ahead of Benben, Li Meng was walking briskly through the forest.
As he walked, he pondered.
Whether this campaign against the s would enter a turning point, Li Meng did not know.
But if he couldn't find a turning point in the s, his future would be in jeopardy.
Though the worst oute wouldn't be death.
At worst, he could lead the goblin brothers and flee the northern forest.
As long as they left the northern forest, they wouldn't csh with the Pigmen tribe.
Without g with the Pigmen tribe, the lizardmen wouldn't join forces with the Pigmen to attack him.
Though doing so would be a bit cowardly, at least they could survive.
As long as they could live, there was hope for everything.
------
That night, the s was quiet.
Uhe moonlight, the White Scale tribe was silent.
The only visible activity was some lizardmen standing guard oer wooden walls.
"What oh is happening in the eastern forest?"
"Who knows, we've sent out several scouting teams, and there's still no news."
"I heard goblins appeared in the eastern forest."
"Goblins? Just kill those little creatures."
Late at night, the lizardmen on the wooden walls gathered to chat.
The tribe's atmosphere had been off for the past few months.
Once, Elder A Dao led the tribe's warriors out, and only half returned.
And Elder A Dao was seriously injured.
"It's not that easy, goblins in groups are the most troublesome."
"Just little goblins, I take on ten."
"e on, even Elder A Dao got hurt, and you think you ?"
"What about me? I've killed at least twenty goblins."
While the lizardmen warriors on the wooden walls chatted to pass the time.
In the rgest thatched house iribe.
"We've sent out five scouting teams, and none have returned, something's wrong!"
"That's obvious, when I came back today, there was movement in the eastern forest."
Five people sat fag each other, cross-legged on grass mats.
In the mai sat a white lizardman.
A Dao's face was slightly gloomy as he looked around at the elders.
"This time, the goblins we entered are different from the ones we know. They have standardized ons, and they're made of iron. We 't be careless or unprepared."
"Just goblins, is it necessary to be so tense?"
"So what if the goblins use iron ons, it doesn't ge the fact that goblins are weak."
Some lizardman elders still looked down on the goblins.
They couldn't uand why Elder A Dao was so cautious about the weak goblins.
"Let's quickly deal with those ugly green-skinned creatures, just like we've done before."
"There's movement in the eastern forest, could it be goblins?"
"How is that possible, if it were goblins, then the ones we sent..."
Elder A Qi's words were abruptly cut off.
The elders' hearts sank, their expressions uain.
If the movement in the eastern forest and the ck of news from the lizardmen scouting teams were ected, it would lead to a terrifying clusion.
All the elders turo look at the High Priest in the mai.
Uhe moonlight, the High Priest was enveloped in a yer of white fluoresce.
Looking so beautiful and holy.
