The Romantic Life of a Goblin

The old priest told the new leader Allen that these slaves were not like this originally.

When they were in the old tribe, they were all very lively, especially when the former priestess was around, they were honest, obedient and quite likable.

Although the priestess was usually moody and extremely cruel and vicious, she was very kind to these human women and would not allow the goblins to maliciously harm them.

She killed all the disobedient goblins and extracted their souls and roasted them, causing resentment among the entire tribe.

The two chiefs who succeeded them were unwilling to waste time caring for these slaves.

On the one hand, it was too troublesome, and on the other hand, there was no big goblin in the tribe at that time. If these slaves rebelled, it would be difficult to deal with them. So they simply gave them herbs to keep them half-dead to save trouble.

After hearing this, Alan secretly cursed these former leaders as idiots.

Although the old priest had only a limited knowledge of herbal medicine and had not made any major achievements, based on his many years of experience, he felt that the problem must be with other materials.

There are three other ingredients used in the soup:

There is a kind of beetle juice called immortal beetle. Although it is called immortal beetle, its effect is actually to make people lose their minds and turn them into a walking corpse. Using a small amount can reduce thinking ability. Slaves who take it for a long time will become stupid, so at least they will not think about suicide and resistance.

Another one is the rhizome of sunflower, which has stimulating and hallucinogenic effects and can be addictive. If you suddenly stop taking it after taking it in large quantities for a period of time, you will feel uncomfortable all over.

The last type is actually the dried powder of goblin saliva, which has a similar effect to a powerful stimulant on humans.

However, the old priest said that he had heard from the shamans in the big tribe that there was a mutated poisonous dragon far to the north, and their stuff was more effective. As long as female animals got a little bit of it, they would go extremely crazy and even willingly be eaten by the poisonous dragon.

Alan was very interested in this, but the old priest didn't know the details.

The two goblins did some research and could only make improvements to the existing formula. Finally, they decided to strengthen the catalytic effect and reduce the amount of undead insect powder.

The old priest prepared a jar of ointment and gave it to the new leader to try first.

But the slaves in the cave have been taking medication for a long time. Not to mention changing the dosage, even if they completely stop taking the medication, it will take some time for them to regain their sanity.

Since no effect could be tested now, the new leader decided to keep it as a backup.

I asked the old priest to try to research an antidote when he has time, but considering the old guy's level, there is probably no hope.

As the new leader, Allen felt that the first thing that needed to be solved was the diet problem.

Currently, the food sources in the nest are divided into three parts:

The first is that adult goblins go out hunting every day. The hunting ground is an area along the river that is about a day's journey. This area is relatively safe, there are not many carnivorous beasts, but there are not many prey either. If you go further, you will encounter groups of ferocious jackals and dragons, which is very dangerous.

The second is that the cubs and newly grown goblins are catching fish, insects and collecting fungi near the nest. The harvest is too little, but it is better than nothing.

The third is the insects, or maggots, that are bred inside the nest.

Although these three methods can guarantee basic survival needs, they are far from meeting the nutritional intake required for the development and growth of the tribe.

They dug a large pit in a deeper cave, and threw leftover food and animal carcasses into it to rot, even including the bodies of slaves and dead goblins.

A lot of red-headed flies and green-backed flies are raised here as a seedbed. These flies are large in size and can lay a lot of eggs every day. The hatched maggots grow to the size of a little finger in three to five days and taste very delicious. They are the staple food of goblin cubs and a filling meal for adult goblins who have nothing to eat.

Alan has been thinking about the problem of food sources. After all, without sufficient food supply, it would be difficult for this small tribe to survive.

Because they came from another world, Alan actually considered that the best way to expand this small tribe and solve the food problem was to bring the goblins to learn from humans, such as animal husbandry and sowing.

If the goblins learned these, they would not be restricted by food and their numbers would increase dramatically.

In fact, it is the same for any race. If they want to grow and develop, food issue is the top priority.

However, this is obviously not realistic at this stage, and these ideas can only be implemented later.

After careful consideration, he believed that based on the current actual situation, the problem of food sources could be solved from two aspects.

First, you can consider expanding your hunting range. Since you can use the Force, you should be able to catch some large animals.

Secondly, you can also consider setting up farms to ensure a stable food supply.

Alan remembered that in the Bullfrog classic "Dungeon Crazy" that he played in his previous life, there were a large number of chickens raised in the monsters' nests.

Therefore, he wanted to find similar places in the forest and try to capture some small animals such as horned rabbits and golden pheasants for breeding.

Before dark, Alan found the old priest and asked him about the nearby terrain and the distribution of prey.

Then, as the new leader, he gathered a group of people and prepared to go out for the first hunting trip.

Although this group of goblins walked crookedly on the road, they were all experienced hunters with excellent hunting skills.

Soon, they successfully caught two horned rabbits, a species of rabbit with horns on its head and a large body. Some individuals were even more than one meter long when stretched out.

In addition, according to legend, there is a yellow horned rabbit that can discharge electricity.

Generally speaking, this food is enough for them to eat for a whole day.

But Allen thought it was still early and they could explore further afield.

Although other adult goblins strongly objected to approaching the territory of carnivores, Allen did not take their opinions to heart.

However, it turned out that Allen was too careless and underestimated his enemy.

After trekking for most of the day, they encountered a ferocious jackal dragon in a bush.

This creature is huge, about two to three meters long, and looks very similar to the dinosaurs in the previous movie "Jurassic Park". It is ferocious, cruel and agile.

When the goblins saw this huge monster, they immediately fled in panic.

Seeing this, Allen stopped them in time. It is a big taboo to lose your composure in the face of a strong enemy.

Alan walked forward alone and tried to use the skills of the Force Beast to control the beast.

However, facing such powerful carnivorous beasts actually requires higher-level skills to successfully tame them, which is not something Alan can currently master.

Therefore, although this ferocious jackal dragon was affected by the Force and did not pounce directly on it to bite, it still bared its fangs and claws, showing an attitude that was difficult to tame.
