When Kog'Maw was fighting with more than 20 mercenaries, everyone consciously made way for them to fight.

At this time, there were so many people lying around Kog'gas' feet that the grass was not smooth.

"You are very strong!" Malok walked up to Kog'Maw and clenched his fists eager to try.

"You are also very strong." Kog'Maw walked out from the pile of fallen mercenaries, stood in front of Malok, looked up and looked into his eyes.

The fighting spirit collided between the two of them, and the air unconsciously began to heat up.

Just before the battle between Malok and Cho'Gath was about to break out, Loken finally returned.

A loud and strange cry came from not far away, followed by the sound of wheels rolling and metal colliding.

Anyone who could still breathe couldn't help but look in the direction where the noise came from.

Locke came out from the corner with more than a dozen soldiers. These soldiers were wearing leather armor inlaid with metal plates. One of them was pushing a metal cage cart with four wheels towards the lawn.

Each metal cage is more than one meter high and contains a curled-up green-skinned monster.

These little monsters have big heads and long ears, dry and thin limbs, and sharp teeth when they open their mouths. They look like aliens.

They are goblins. Even though they are locked in cages, they are still as ferocious as ever. They scratch the metal cages madly and stretch their hands out of the cages to attack the soldiers pushing the carts.

However, there were two handles on the back of the metal cage cart for pushing the cart. The goblins were unable to attack the soldiers pushing the cart and could only yell in vain.

Seeing this scene, even the mercenaries who were lying on the ground and wailing in pain unconsciously climbed up from the ground.

It was the first time for them to see creatures like goblins, and they felt it was quite novel.

How should I put it? From the perspective of human aesthetics, goblins are ugly, extremely ugly.

"Goblin!" Xiu's expression changed when he saw the goblin again.

It seems that goblins have appeared not only in Knight Soma's Fuki Village, but also in the neighboring territory, the Big Stone Town.

Moreover, from the fact that Viscount Hocas summoned a large number of mercenaries to his territory to prepare for war, it can be seen that there are quite a few goblins in his territory.

I estimate the number to be around two to three thousand.

When Malok heard Xiuyi say "Goblin", he could no longer fail to understand the identity of these green-skinned little monsters.

He gave up the chance to fight Cho'Gath and approached the cart containing the goblins.

Locke led the soldiers to push the cart to the lawn. He first looked at the mercenaries in surprise. He was obviously very curious about the mercenaries lying on the ground and didn't know what had happened during the time he was away.

After satisfying his curiosity, Locke immediately came to Viscount Horcas and said respectfully, "Master, I brought them here."

"Yeah." Viscount Hocas nodded slightly and signaled Locke to step back with his eyes.

Long-term interactions can indeed foster tacit understanding. Locke stepped aside.

Malok walked around more than ten cages and commented on the goblins in the cages.

The conclusion is that these little monsters look fierce, but if they really fight, they will probably be just like that.

It is indeed as Shuichi said before, a strong little boy with a sturdy stick can fight against the most ordinary goblin with bare hands.

The prerequisite is that human children are not afraid of death.

Because courage is the greatest weapon humans have when facing their enemies.

"Everyone, these are goblins." Viscount Hocas glanced at the expressions on the mercenaries' faces with interest.

The mercenaries present were either leaders of small mercenary groups or the leaders' most trusted deputies, and none of them were cowards.

They were also very curious about this completely new species, the goblin. The guys who had been beaten by Kog'Maw before no longer cried out in pain. Instead, they ran one by one to look at the goblins in the cages at close range, just like modern people visiting a zoo for the first time.

"Little Xiuyi, can you continue to tell me what you know about goblins?" Viscount Hocas walked up to Xiuyi and talked to him cordially.

From the moment Shuichi first introduced himself, Hocas knew that Shuichi was the type who did not understand hierarchy, or rather, deep down in his heart, Shuichi did not think that he was inferior to anyone.

This kind of temperament and self-confidence is absolutely impossible for the lower-class common people in this world who have been brainwashed by bloodline theory and religion for thousands of years to possess.

The feeling given by a strong man threatening people with a knife is different from that given by a child threatening people with a knife, unless the child says that he has the Protection Act for Minors.

Xiuyi sighed, feeling that things were getting a bit serious.

"My Lord, although it may be offensive for me to say this, I personally think that you may not know as much about them as I do."

"Oh?" Viscount Horcas became interested. He smiled and asked, "I'm curious about your opinion. What do you know? Can you tell me, young sir?"

"You captured these goblins, so they must have attacked your village, right?"

There are only two reasons why more than ten goblins were captured.

The goblins recently took large-scale actions and attacked a village of Viscount Horcas.

Or maybe it was picked up bit by bit.

To be honest, Shuichi thinks the first scenario is more likely.

After all, the goblins hiding in the neighboring territory dared to attack the village, so there is no reason why the goblins on Viscount Hocas's side couldn't do it.

Also, goblins are things that can neither be eaten nor used, so there is no reason for Viscount Hocas to keep them and waste food.

If you want to open the eyes of the mercenaries, it would be enough to catch a few temporarily, there is no need to raise more than a dozen at once.

Then there seems to be only one most logical answer, that these goblins were captured all at once recently.

Considering the need to let the mercenaries broaden their horizons, they simply kept them all. It was a convenient thing to do anyway.

To be able to capture so many goblins at once, either Viscount Hocas raided the goblins' lair, or they took the initiative to attack recently and were caught off guard.

As for the house-raiding goblins...if Viscount Horcas had this ability, would he still need to summon thousands of mercenaries?

So he could only have caught these goblins when he was on passive defense.

Then change your thinking.

Why was Viscount Hocas able to catch the goblins off guard?

The reason is simple: I have experience!

The conclusion is that this is not the first or second time that goblins have attacked Viscount Hocas's territory.

Viscount Hocas said "hmm" without comment.

Obviously, he didn't want to answer this question.

Because it involves face issues.

"Then can you tell me how many of your villages they have attacked? How many times have they succeeded? What are the losses?"

"Can you guess?" Viscount Hocas was obviously more interested in Shuichi's guess, which was a disguised admission that the goblins had indeed attacked his village and succeeded, at least once.

Xiuyi thought for a moment and gave his predicted answer: "It should have succeeded twice. When it attacked the village for the third time, you ambushed it."

After hearing this answer, Viscount Hocas's face, which had been calm since they first met, finally showed an expression that did not belong to Yu Yu.
