The goblins' second wave of attack ended in failure.

Many goblin warriors fled back to Stone Tower Mountain in a panic, but the high-end combat forces leading the team, from the goblin general, goblin shaman to more than a dozen big goblins, were not spared and were all killed in the battle.

Next time, it will probably be the Goblin King himself who will take action.

They won't be able to swallow this after suffering such a huge loss.

It is also possible that they will be frightened and hide themselves indoors.

But no matter how the other party reacts, Xiuyi and his team are confident that they can deal with it.

Fighting is always the fastest way to gain experience. This battle allowed Xiuyi to see that his side had many shortcomings.

For example, although Goblin Slayer’s combat power has reached the gold level, he has no spellcasting ability and is a pure warrior.

For a pure warrior, there are still great limitations.

Xiuyi was wondering if he could equip Goslayer with a Divine Eye or something to enhance his combat power.

Besides that, he was thinking about whether he could get some training skills, bloodline limits, and the like for Brother Slayer...

He even wondered if he could give the blank relic card to Goblin Slayer and let Goblin Slayer make the card himself?

Although the idea is a bit far-fetched, Xiuyi feels that the plan is still very feasible.

I made a secret note of it and decided to ask the old man after the battle.

Their Institute of Knowledge is known as the most powerful academic institution in the world, so it is very likely that these questions of Shuichi have already been the research topics of the Institute of Knowledge, and it is not impossible to even give Shuichi the answers directly.

You know, when Phoenix Fire was still an egg, Xiuyi created [Fire Phoenix Blood] to help it hatch.

After hatching, the Phoenix Fire was upgraded from level one to level three.

From this we can see that the upgrade of shadow beasts does not necessarily require killing monsters, but can also be upgraded by consuming other creatures.

Since Phoenix Fire can do it, Goblin Slayer can theoretically also be enhanced by consumable creatures.

The same is true for other awakened ones.

For example, Kog'gas, Viscount Hocas, old man Bocolanchi, and even Xiuyi himself.

However, are there any side effects to using consumable creations to strengthen yourself?

unknown……

I'll try it when I have the chance.

Thinking of this, Xiuyi played the Sky Harp without stopping, providing recovery effects for the soldiers who were tired after two battles.

The familiar "Adeline at the Water's Edge" sounded, restoring the soldiers' strength, healing their wounds, eliminating fatigue and soothing their spirits.

Under the command of a knight named Baudelaire, the soldiers carried out the aftermath work in an orderly manner. After everything was arranged, Baudelaire handed over the trivial tasks to his adjutant.

Baudelaire was a knight appointed by Hocas. He escaped alone because his territory was captured by goblins.

Originally he led a lot of people to escape, but in the end, he was the only one left.

Wife, children, subordinates... all were either killed or captured by the goblins...

Although he escaped death, Knight Baudelaire has been trapped in the shadow of the past since that day and cannot extricate himself.

Every night he would dream of his lost family members calling out his name in his ears, asking him why he ran away, why he didn't save them, why he didn't die with them...

After escaping to Horcas's castle, Baudelaire suffered from inner torment every moment. He could not forgive himself, so he cut his handsome face 17 times...

Since then, he has worn a black mask that only shows the area below his nostrils.

This time, Shuichi took the initiative to undertake the task of attracting the enemy. Viscount Hocas knew that Shuichi had no experience in leading troops, so out of concern, he sent Baudelaire, an outstanding commander, to help Shuichi command the army.

Baudelaire is also the commander under Viscount Horcas who knows goblins best.

When the goblins attacked the village for the third time, it was Baudelaire who predicted the goblins' actions and made arrangements in the village in advance, thus inflicting heavy damage to the goblins.

On the premise that there is a verifiable record, Baudelaire is indeed a trump card in Hocas's hand.

However, before the end of this battle, Baudelaire actually didn't take Shuichi seriously.

He himself is a level two awakener.

After using the creation, the combat power can reach level three.

This is also the main reason why he was able to escape the goblin's pursuit alone.

In Baudelaire's opinion, although goblins are short in stature, they are cruel and cunning.

And Shuichi... He's just an 8-year-old kid, what does he know?

However, he could not disobey his master's orders, so Baudelaire could only cooperate silently.

Even though Baudelaire didn't seem to show up when the goblins attacked the convoy twice.

In fact, he had been commanding the soldiers in the hedgehog formation, so he did not go into battle personally. This is why Baudelaire did not appear in any shots, as if he suddenly jumped out of the ground.

In fact, they did a lot of things in secret.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just say that the Hedgehog Formation has always maintained a stable formation. When casualties occur, there are follow-up soldiers to immediately fill the positions and actively drag away the wounded... Such efficient action, if there is no commander to dispatch, relying solely on the self-consciousness of the soldiers... Is it possible to do it?

"Master, the casualty statistics are preliminary completed." Knight Baudelaire, wearing full body armor that wrapped every piece of his skin in steel, slowly walked in front of Xiuyi. He punched the armor on his chest with his fist, making a sound of metal clashing. "Seven of our men were seriously injured, 7 were slightly injured, and no one died. The number of enemy casualties is still being counted, but I roughly estimate that the casualties will not be less than 15."

Not everyone can be called Young Master.

Ordinary soldiers could only call Xiuyi "Young Master", and those who could call him "Young Master" were all vassals of Hocas.

Being a dog for the lord?

Do you think you are worthy?

Does it taste very strong?

Just rush.

Do you really think that after thousands of years of brainwashing by theocracy and aristocratic power, how many civilians in this world can still be normal people?

People like Shuichi, who have no noble blood but often unconsciously show arrogance, are the outliers.

"A glorious victory. You are the best commander I have ever seen, Sir Baudelaire." Shuichi continued playing "Adeline by the Water" while chatting with Baudelaire. "From the first moment I saw you, I knew that you were a pure and trustworthy soldier."

"I am ashamed of your praise, young master..."

Baudelaire certainly felt guilty.

When Viscount Hocas first asked him to be Shuichi's commander, Baudelaire had a lot of complaints in his heart.

The main reason was that he felt Xiuyi was too young and couldn't withstand too big storms.

Worried that he would be frightened after seeing the goblins.

If it weren't for the fact that he could use his power as bait to face the goblins directly, Baudelaire might not have agreed to help Shuichi.

As for now... Baudelaire was somewhat glad that he had chosen to obey his master's decision and come to assist the young master.

Baudelaire has never been the same since he stabbed himself 17 times in the face.

After being knighted and owning a village as his territory, he naturally began to enjoy himself.

I am over 30 years old this year, and it is obviously the prime of my life, but because of my laziness, I have gradually developed a little belly.

He tries to save as much as possible in his daily training and does not have the same fighting spirit he had as an apprentice.

Pleasure always leads to depravity.

In the end, fate really dealt him a cruel blow...

Since Baudelaire's village was close to Stone Tower Mountain, the nearby lords had to cross the mountains if they wanted to attack him...

This is definitely not cost-effective.

Therefore, the village that had never been attacked by foreign forces was lax in its defenses...

When the village was captured by the goblins, Baudelaire found that he had no ability to resist and could only take his wife and children and flee this dangerous place.

And then...then his whole family died, and he was the only one left...

Enlightenment always comes when one regrets something. Knight Baudelaire mobilized his rusty brain and realized the fact that he was alone and powerless.

If he wanted revenge, he could only rely on the power of his master, Viscount Hocas.

So he reflected deeply and made up his mind to take revenge.

There is nothing to say about what happened after that.

Baudelaire reminded Viscount Hocas that the enemy was very powerful, and actively persuaded his colleagues to prepare for war, even predicting the approximate time and location of the goblin attack on the village.

At first, Baudelaire's warning was not taken seriously.

Some of his colleagues even mocked him as a scared coward.

After all, the knights appointed by Hocas are all awakened. How could they not understand what the goblins are like?

If that kind of trash little monster fights alone, even a slightly stronger little boy might not be able to defeat it.

It's just trash, I'm not afraid of anything!

Then... the second village was destroyed by the goblins...

When the second village was plundered by goblins and no one survived, Viscount Horcas and his vassals began to pay attention to the hidden dangers of goblins.

Then the goblins attacked the village for the third time, were ambushed, and were defeated.

In fact, Viscount Hocas's actions were more decisive than expected. When the second village was destroyed, he decisively ordered the recruitment of soldiers.

In order to prevent the surrounding lords from feeling threatened and causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

He deliberately recruited mercenaries in the name of bear hunting.

In this case, if the role of the mercenaries is not to hunt bears, but to attack the surrounding lords.

Then Viscount Hocas would naturally become a man who does not keep his word and become the target of criticism from the surrounding nobles.

You must know that not all neighbors love each other.
