Global Lords: I Have Information System-Chapter 574 - 396: Evil Creatures – Goblins

Those lords basically landed near the Northern Forest.

And they should be quite close to the Goblin Tribe.

However, in the following days, few people mentioned goblins anymore.

Obviously, during this time, apart from the Burrow Challenge, these goblins also served as executioners for the lords.

Zong Shen estimated that the lords whose territories were near the Northern Forest were probably in dire straits.

With hostile neighbors nearby, talk of developing the territory is unnecessary; even staying alive is hard.

The distance from here to the Northern Forest is at least forty to fifty kilometers.

You also need to cross a Burial Ground in between.

Finding goblin scouts here can only mean one thing. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The Goblin Tribe has already taken notice of this place.

To them, humans are like cattle and sheep, and settlements are pastures.

Perhaps these goblins don't dare assault villages or Bang City.

But the situation is different when facing the lords' territories.

Most lords' territories don't even have a population exceeding three digits yet.

For the goblins, it's just a "pasture."

How could they let such an opportunity slip away?

Two goblin scouts had their mouths tied with hemp rope.

Unable to speak, they could only let out a whimper like vicious dogs.

These goblins are about the same height as kobolds.

They also have their own unique language.

Only the casters and wise men in the tribe can speak the Continent Common Language.

So there's no point in trying to pry any useful information from them.

These fools appear unintelligent.

Their combat abilities are not even comparable to an average Tier Two Scout.

They've only received some basic scout training and possess some crude stealth skills.

Better to just kill them and gain some Experience Value.

Zong Shen slightly raised his head and looked at Avid.

The Wolf Cavalry had completed their re-equipping as part of the combat troops.

They also wore the thick, warm [Double-sided Sheepskin Cold-Resistant Suit].

Even their wargs were draped with a sheepskin robe.

Judging by the design, it seems to be custom-made for wargs.

Even those Andalusian Warhorses, the Grassland Horses in the stables, and even Pigsy have one.

These were all Marie's ideas.

It's not like the current mounts in the territory are numerous.

The difficulty in sewing and material consumption aren't significant.

The territory has abundant raw material reserves of sheepskin wool.

She had Alanna sew up a batch of them yesterday.

Zong Shen had no objections naturally.

These are just small details, with only two to three hundred pieces of sheepskin wool and a few hours of Alanna's effort required.

Marie, as the Logistics Officer, has this level of authority.

The wargs originally had thick fur, and with the added layer of sheepskin robe, they appeared even bulkier.

Zong Shen flipped his hand, taking out the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword.

He spoke softly to Avid.

"These two filthy green-skinned goblins have no meaning to exist anymore."

"They're unintelligent and cruel; just kill them."

"Also, search around the territory for any other traces left by goblins."

Upon hearing Zong Shen's words, Avid bowed in salute.

The other Wolf Riders immediately understood the intention of their lord.

They dismounted the wargs and kicked at the knees of the two goblin scouts from behind.

Their short legs gave way, and both knelt on the ground.

The Wolf Riders grabbed the hemp rope binding the goblins' bodies.

They stepped on the goblin scouts' backs with their leather-boot-clad feet.

Keeping them in a bowed, kneeling posture.

Also exposing their slender necks.

Zong Shen slowly walked forward, raising the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword in his hand high.

He intended to use a beheading technique to take down these two goblin scouts.

To Zong Shen, these two creatures were just two ugly, disgusting wild monsters.

He aimed the sword blade at the goblin scout's neck.

He swung the heavy sword with full force.

"Puff!"

[-277]

A faint sound of the sword edge slicing into flesh was heard.

In the next moment, a goblin's head flew away.

Dark green blood gushed out from the neck's incision.

The sudden loss of pressure in the major artery caused this spectacular scene.

The goblin scout was just a whiteboard-level monster with a limited blood volume.

Without armor protection, Zong Shen could easily decapitate them with one strike.

After slaying this goblin, he walked towards the other one.

Swiftly and decisively, he decapitated the other goblin scout as well.

The two goblin scouts contributed over a hundred Experience Value points and 2 Strength Extraction Value points to him.

"Drag them out to burn or feed them to the wolves."

"Continue to patrol, and if any other goblin traces are found around the territory, contact me immediately."

Zong Shen kicked the headless corpse at his feet, signaling the Wolf Riders to take the bodies away.

The equipment of these goblin scouts was very crude, without even a decent leather armor.

They wore worn-out black nightwear, sewn with extremely rudimentary techniques.

Their weapons were a pair of short daggers, heavily worn.

The blades were chipped all over.

There were also obvious grinding marks.

In Zong Shen's view, these daggers didn't even reach the whiteboard level.

They were gray, damaged-level items.

The last time Zong Shen saw gray equipment was just after landing back then.

Even his long sword with its own tetanus buff was of such a grade.

Therefore, Zong Shen found it utterly uninteresting.

After speaking, he walked back to the Lord's Courtyard.

This group of goblins entrenched in the area would eventually lead to a battle.

The defense matrix of the territory was already roughly formed.

There were more than a hundred soldiers.

It was no longer a situation of poverty and emptiness like when they first landed.

Not seeking trouble with the Goblin Tribe for now was good enough.

If the Goblin Tribe dared to send people to attack, Zong Shen had enough confidence to keep them!

Zong had the confidence and the strength for this.

The Wolf Riders, according to Zong Shen's instructions, dragged the two headless corpses away.

Along with taking the two ugly heads with them.

Were it not for the filthy bloodstains left on the ground, it seemed as if nothing had ever happened.

As time passed, the cold wind became even more bitter.

There was still over an hour before noon.

Marie had completed the tasks assigned earlier.

All the cold-resistant materials in the living area had been distributed.

Hoy and Doris would personally oversee the living area.

Their personal storage grids were stocked with some strong liquor and medicines.

Zong Shen had left the recharged [Magic Energy Combat Puppet] near the living area.

He handed over the communication crystal that could activate the puppet to Hoy for safekeeping.

The magic energy puppet was forged from precious magic materials.

Hence, it was not easily affected by the adverse effects of cold.

With its size and strength, unless it's frozen into an iceberg, it could move freely.

Placed around the living area, it served as a suitable backup means.

In addition, the copper water pots and hanging furnaces in the living area would operate 24 hours for boiling water.

The stove platforms had reserved spots for placing water pots.

All the houses and stone houses had reserved ventilation openings.

Wind-blocking walls were all constructed, except for the Wolf Riders still on patrol.

Everyone was in their position.

Now it was just a matter of Luna and Favide, who set out to the mine with Pigsy and the Two-headed Hellhound.

Based on the departure time, they would need more than half an hour to return to the territory.

Everything was ready, just waiting for the frosty winter to descend.

New challenges, new expectations.

Zong Shen hoped that it would be like the hint under the challenge announcement in the Strategy Module.

"Only by enduring the harsh cold of winter can one reach the blessings of spring."

He stood at the entrance of the Lord's Courtyard, gazing into the gray, misty sky.

Then, with a graceful turn, he walked back into the Lord's Small Tower.

He was preparing to check the remaining two magic items and things obtained from Evans.

For once, there was a rare moment of leisure.
