Heavenly Calamity - Chapter 199
[Chapter 45 Surrender]
The fireball roared into the goblin village, and the treehouses were set ablaze, turning the village into a sea of flames in an instant.
The goblins croaked and were all forced out, the trees burning, the walls of thick smoke.
Goblins broke through several times, but were forced back by a shower of arrows.
The arrows were like locusts, constantly shooting into the woods, nailing them to the trees, and inserting them into the ground. Many goblins were shot into sieves, and the blood of the goblins stained the green and red bushes.
The mercenaries saw that the fight was almost done. The soldiers were divided into two groups, and they flanked from the left and right. In the end, more than 400 goblins were surrounded by 300 elite mercenaries, completely cutting off the possibility of escape.
Goblins are weaker than expected, because most of the elites died in the hands of Zhang Mu. The goblins in the village are generally only level 15 and 16. Most of the elite mercenaries have reached level 18. Occupy a great advantage, and there is no suspense in the battle result.
“Quack! Quack!”
The goblins, led by an elite warrior, broke out again.
The mourning dog swept out a violent leg wind, and the leading goblin warrior was knocked out on the spot, smashed through a large tree surrounded by several people on the opposite side, and was almost smashed into meat sauce, he must not survive.
“Storm of arrows!”
Yang Yi opened his longbow and shot an arrow into the sky. About a second later, hundreds of energy arrows rained down, and the goblins were directly defeated by torrential arrows and spells, completely losing their ability to resist.
Many goblins threw away their weapons, and screamed and huddled together, “Ouch!” “Ouch!”
Leng Yun started the spell combo, a range magic [Frostfall] was about to be thrown, and suddenly saw a goblin child who was only 50 cm tall in front of him, shot through the throat with an arrow by the mercenary, fell to the ground and kept twitching, holding one hand in one hand. Grabbing the neck wound, the other hand stretched out to Leng Yun far away, casting a look full of pain and prayer.
“Ouch!”
“Ouch!”
The wailing and eyes of the little goblin before his death made Leng Yun unable to help but feel compassion, and he was a little bit helpless.
Just a child!
Gob is an intelligent race with rich emotions, and it is the enemy’s position. Either you die or I live, Leng Yun will shoot without hesitation.
Among the goblins, there are quite a few old people and young children who have no fighting ability, and now the shot is pure slaughter!
“Stop! Stop fighting, stop fighting!” Leng Yun considered whether she wanted to stop the mercenary slaughter. Du Rongrong cried out anxiously, pulling Zhang Mu and shouting, “The goblins threw away their weapons, they have already surrendered. Let everyone stop! They are so weak and there are so many children, let’s not kill them all!”
Although Du Rongrong was young, he was one of the core members of the Huangquan Mercenary Group and a genuine elder.
The vast majority of the mercenaries participating in the war are Huang Quan’s mercenaries. When they heard Du Rongrong’s shout, many people stopped attacking. Others stopped attacking when they saw Huang Quan’s people.
There are less than 400 goblins left.
Most were wounded.
Everyone turned their attention to Zhang Mu. Hundreds of goblins lived or died, only in Zhang Mu’s thoughts.
“Rongrong, I know you have a good heart!” Zhang Mu sighed and said helplessly: “This is a land where the weak eat the strong, and those who are not of our race will have different hearts. We must not be soft-hearted when we fight against foreign races. The current situation is weak. I am strong, if it is reversed, I think the goblins will kill all human beings without hesitation, regardless of the elderly and children! This is a death battle, and it is a war!”
“But the goblins have surrendered. They are so weak and can’t pose a threat to humans. Maybe they are still useful. Just listen to me once, just this time…”
Zhang Mu secretly observed other people.
Leng Yun didn’t speak, but she could tell from her expression that she definitely supported Du Rongrong.
She didn’t want the mercenaries to slaughter the goblins. After all, there were a lot of old people and children. They were not warriors and should not face war and death.
Liu Shiyan is similar to Sun Lin.
Ye Qianqiu and Cheng Bo didn’t do it, it’s not that Ye Qianqiu is kind-hearted, it’s just Ye Qianqiu who is proud of his personality,
He also disdains to kill a group of weak creatures that have lost their will to fight.
Zhang Mu’s eyes fell on the goblins who were less than 400, still shivering, and had no fighting power.
He took out the halfling necklace from his backpack and put it on. The language effect allowed him to understand the goblin language.
One of the goblins shouted “Ouch”, which means “forgive” and “surrender” in the Goblin language. Goblins are begging humans for mercy.
Zhang Mu said in Goblin language: “You attacked the human team, so you must be punished!”
Zhang Mu opened his mouth for a while, and the mercenaries were stunned. It took a while for him to realize that he was speaking in the language of Goblin!
When the goblins saw that someone from the human race could stand up and communicate, they all showed joy, as if seeing the hope of survival, an older goblin stood up.
Goblin life expectancy is about 50 years old, this goblin is not 50 but also 49 years old, wearing a linen robe, wrinkled all over, leaning on a wooden staff, his image is the same as Master Yoda in the movie “Star Wars” A bit like.
This old goblin, half footed into the coffin, has a detached position in the village, perhaps a role like the village chief, and said in an unpleasant voice: “My lord, I am the elder of the village chief, for the recklessness and innocence of the goblins. Li apologizes to you, the warriors who offended the powerful human warriors should be executed immediately, please let the children live!”
Zhang Mu didn’t show any emotional expression, and said coldly: “You can survive, but you have to pay the price.”
The battle left the goblin warrior dead and wounded.
Human beings, as the victor, might take away all the resources in the village.
In the end, even if humans didn’t kill all the goblins, the village would not be able to gain a foothold.
The goblin elder looked at the surrounding goblin corpses, touched the cane in his hand, and said without hesitation, “Goblin is willing to surrender!”
“Submit?” Zhang Mu just wanted goblins’ food and resources, but he didn’t expect that goblins would choose to surrender, “What’s the use of me wanting a group of weak goblins, you guys don’t look delicious!”
The goblin was trembling with fear.
The goblin’s face was also on the other side, and he said hurriedly: “Goblin’s meat cannot be eaten. Goblins know how to plant and gather, so they can get edible food for adults!”
“Growing and gathering?”
“Yes, just as dwarves are naturally proficient in blacksmithing, goblins are born with gathering skills. Goblins know a thing or two about magic cultivation, as long as humans don’t kill us, provide protection for weak goblins, goblins Willing to become a slave of the human race and serve mankind!”
The words of the elder Goblin made Zhang Mu very moved. Because of his past experiences, Zhang Mu always thought that the alien race had to be killed, and he never thought of subduing the alien race.
If you can subdue some weak and alien races and tie them to your chariot, wouldn’t the human race’s strength be improved?
There are six or seven kinds of races in the Dawning area, but only the terrified race, the dog race, and the goblin race. The three races have the power not inferior to the human race, or even surpass the human race.
Other races such as goblins, cat people, and scavengers are weak.
These races lack cohesion, and at most live in the wild in a village mode. They don’t have to come out and attack other races, grab a little money or supplies, etc. Generally speaking, it’s not a climate, and they can’t participate in racial battles.
Zhang Mushang has a concern: “We killed hundreds of goblins, why do you believe that you will be loyal?”
The elder goblin was very shrewd. He felt the change in human thoughts from Zhang Mu’s tone, and immediately put down his crutches and knelt down. The other goblins were very tacit and all knelt on the ground.
“More than two hundred years ago, a group of goblins took refuge in the Bloody Plain, and gradually dispersed to all parts of the plain, forming small villages, struggling on the edge of survival. We are facing extinction all the time. For us, death is an early It’s commonplace. No one dares to hold a grudge against humans, because for goblins, survival always comes first.”
“Goblins are too dignified to live like this.”
“The strong have dignity, the weak only want to survive!” The elder goblin leaned down and kissed the soil in front of the boots, “We just want to live!”
Zhang Mu looked at the other goblins.
Both men, women and children, most of them were injured, knelt on the ground shivering, and desperately kissed the ground.
There was no trace of hatred in their eyes.
The dead clansmen seem to be the same.
There were less than 700 Goblins in the whole, and a lot of them were killed near the secret realm. Hundreds were killed by mercenaries who attacked the village.
Nearly half of the entire village was killed by humans.
In such a situation, the goblins did not have the slightest resentment, but instead longed to seek their lives by surrendering, which was inconceivable in the eyes of humans.
Perhaps, living in a civilized world for thousands of years, suddenly entering a cruel world that truly respects power and purely follows the law of the weak, and thoughts and concepts cannot be changed for a while.
Between survival and dignity, Goblins gave up the latter without hesitation.
Such a small and weak clan can survive thousands of years without going extinct. Perhaps this is the reason.
Only the strong have dignity!
The weak just want to survive!
The casual words of the goblin elders may be the true portrayal of the weak. If human beings are enslaved and oppressed by a stronger race or existence for thousands of years, the resistance and rebellion in their bones may also be worn away. After all, I take everything for granted, and it may not be any better than Goblins.
After all, survival is the most primitive instinct of living things.
Zhang Mu waved at everyone, and the mercenaries put away all their weapons, “I can temporarily accept your submission. From today, you are the private property of human beings, human beings will protect you, and you will serve human beings! Goblins dare to have Anything with bad intentions, I will make you regret coming into the world.”
The goblin elder was overjoyed, and kept kissing the ground in gratitude.
Zhang Mu found the goblin resource reserve in several tree holes. The elder Goblin didn’t lie. Goblins had the talent for gathering. There were a lot of magic ores, magic herbs, leather and ingredients hidden in the tree holes.
Zhang Mu took away most of it, leaving only a little for the goblins to survive and consume.
“What do you guys do to collect ores?” Zhang Mu felt a little strange: “Could it be that goblins can forge?”
The goblin shook his head and said, “Goblins don’t understand magic forging. Collecting ores can be exchanged for gold coins to buy other living resources.”
Zhang Mu was startled and asked, “There is a place similar to a market in the Blood Light Plain, the kind of place that offers transactions?”
The goblin did not deny: “Yes, we call this kind of place the black market. It is an underground trading location secretly opened by outside races or business alliance forces, sneaking into the Dawning area. Going to the black market is not a small risk, because in the black market you often encounter Other races, if they don’t have the ability to protect themselves, but are too conspicuous, they will definitely be killed! That’s why goblins dare not sell high-grade ores and materials!”
