Chapter 33 – A large number of adventurers have appeared!
Lin Tian didn't get a clear look at their attributes and identities because they moved too fast.
But he could guess they weren't ordinary people.
Judging by their attire, they were probably adventurers.
They might be passing adventurers looking for a place to stay, so Lin Tian didn't pay much attention.
However, it wasn't long before another group arrived.
This time, Lin Tian saw clearly. They were just a Silver-ranked adventurer team, as indicated on their status panels.
Nothing to worry about.
Just a bunch of weaklings.
"Something's off, really off!"
Lin Tian couldn't help but say.@@novelbin@@
Because soon, another group arrived, and over the course of a day, at least a hundred people entered Bright Town!
And they were all adventurers!
Each of their status panels had an introduction.
Lin Tian muttered to himself, "Did I stir up a hornet's nest of adventurers? Twenty teams, three Diamond-ranked, and even one Epic-ranked!"
It's important to know that Loder and his team were only Platinum-ranked before, not even close to Diamond.
In this world, adventurer team badges are specifically ranked.
From Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Epic, Legendary, Mythical, Immortal, to World-class.
Adventurers who earn a Diamond badge are already among the elite, extremely capable.
Not to mention Epic-ranked, their stories are well-known throughout the kingdom.
Like the "golden child" everyone talks about.
Sensing something was wrong, Lin Tian immediately headed back to the tribe to relocate everyone. They couldn't stay here any longer.
"Boss, the new batch of goblins has mostly grown up, but the forest's resources are too scarce, and everyone's nearly starving."
At this moment, Leah came up to report.
Goblin Moon also spoke, "The iron ore is almost depleted, and many new goblins can't wear iron armor or wield weapons, creating a significant strength gap."
Goblin Moon and the elves mainly handled the tribe's logistics.
They did an excellent job, and Lin Tian was very reassured.
Since that was the case, Lin Tian addressed everyone, "Grab your things. Today, immediately, we're moving!"
"Moving? Boss, what's going on?"
Goblin Kind couldn't help but ask.
Goblin Fury and Goblin Sky were also puzzled. They had lived here for so long, and it was the first time they heard about moving.
Lin Tian didn't explain much, "The resources here are insufficient. We need to move to a resource-rich place for better development."
Indeed, for better development, because the third-generation goblins didn't have enough experience points to level up and evolve.
They were like cannon fodder, easily killed by anyone, making all the hard work meaningless.
But the main reason was the fear of a siege from Bright Town.
If they were caught here, it would be the end.
"Also, listen carefully. On the way, move quietly and steadily. Leah, Goblin Moon, you and the elves are responsible for erasing our tracks."
Lin Tian added.
Having the cautious elves clear the tracks was the best choice.
Soon, two to three hundred goblins began the big move.
They took useful resources, including breeding tools, and prepared to set off.
At this moment, Leah pointed to the side and said, "Boss, what about that guy?"
She was referring to Loder.
"Oh, I almost forgot about him. He's still alive with grass growing on him?"
Lin Tian was startled, amazed at Loder's resilience.
Loder suddenly spoke, "Don't kill me, take me with you. I want to see you take down that damn bitch with my own eyes, okay? I'm begging you. I've been holding on just for that day."
"Hmph, I wouldn't let you die so easily. When I caught you, I said I'd make you wish for death but be unable to die."
Lin Tian then instructed Ifreya to drag him along.
They joined the moving brigade.
There wasn't much to take from the tribe, just some iron ore, basic resources like cloth, ropes, pots, and equipment.
And most importantly, the breeding tools.
Lin Tian had previously scouted a new living place while riding his wyvern.
A waterfall cave about a hundred kilometers away.
The cave was very deep and large, intricate and complex, with many smaller caves inside.
It was suspected to be a dungeon.
Even Goblin Fury couldn't touch the ceiling in many places.
But some areas were very low and narrow.
"Boss, how much farther?"
On the way, Leah couldn't help but ask.
They had already passed through the Enchanted Forest and entered a normal environment.
The surroundings were normal woods, not too dense, green and pleasant.
As far as she knew, the next Enchanted Forest was at least two hundred kilometers away!
Lin Tian calmly replied, "We're almost there. Do you hear the sound of a river?"
"Whoosh, whoosh..."
Sure enough, the sound of rushing water came from not far away.
As they passed through the dense forest, their view suddenly opened up, revealing a clear river.
It was about ten meters wide.
Upstream, about dozens of meters away, was a tall waterfall.
Both sides were covered in lush grass, and they could even see cattle and sheep grazing on the other side of the river.
A vigilant lamb suddenly raised its head and noticed Lin Tian and his group.
It immediately scattered with the others.
"So much roast lamb and beef, hahaha!"
Goblin Sky laughed, eager to catch a few to taste.
They had been starving in the Enchanted Forest for a long time, and it had been ages since they had such good food.
Lin Tian called him back, "Come here. Without my orders, no one is allowed to act rashly during this period."
The situation in Bright Town was extremely unusual, and they had to be cautious.
They couldn't afford to expose their location; otherwise, the cave would be in vain.
Then he led everyone towards the waterfall. Behind the water curtain, a dark, bottomless cave appeared.
The cave wasn't particularly large, but it could be described as initially narrow, then opening up after walking a few dozen steps.
Goblin Sky could barely fit in.
They could expand it later, but for now, there was no time to worry about that.
They brought all the resources into the cave.
Lin Tian had roughly planned it out. The cave was mainly divided into three large caves, interconnected, each several thousand square meters in size, though not very flat.
There were many rugged rocks, stalactites, and crystals inside.
One area would be for living, one for breeding, and one for sleeping.
There were also four or five medium-sized caves for storing items, and a dozen small caves.
Though the small caves were currently unused, they would be very useful if enemies invaded.
"Leah, Goblin Moon, you take these goblins and clean up the three large caves. Knock down the stalactites and level the ground as much as possible."
Lin Tian instructed.
Leah, a bit scared, hugged Lin Tian and placed him in her soft embrace, "But Boss, we elves can't see well in the dark."
Reluctantly, they had to light a few torches, though it risked depleting oxygen.
If they all suffocated here, that would be a real disaster.
"I'll find some underground air vents. Goblin Fury, come with me."
Lin Tian took out an iron chisel he had made.
After searching the ground for a long time, they finally found an underground air vent.
Goblin Fury chiseled away furiously, and soon, a strong wind blew into the cave, making everything much better.
A day passed.
The situation in the cave had stabilized.
Lin Tian then gathered all the goblins and elves in the living area, "I have three things to say.
1. Goblin Sky, you lead the Goblin Assassins to hunt. No one else is allowed to go out without my permission.
2. Two goblins will patrol and guard the entrance daily. Report any movement immediately, but don't leave the waterfall and expose yourselves.
3. Behave in the cave! Anyone acting like an attention seeker will be killed!"
"Yes, Boss!"
"Long live the Boss, we'll follow you!"
Soon, Goblin Sky and his team caught a dozen wild cattle, and they started a bonfire in the cave, roasting whole cattle.
But the elves were vegetarians.
Lin Tian trusted them not to expose their location, so they were allowed to come and go freely and handle their own meals.
There were far more fruits and vegetables around than in their previous location, more than they could eat.
"Hmph, you've really outdone yourself, finding such a hidden cave. It's easy to defend and hard to attack. Even an army couldn't get in. What, did the royal family's reinforcements arrive?"
Loder sneered at this moment.
Lin Tian glanced at him, "Smart guess. Bright Town suddenly saw an influx of adventurer teams, probably planning to besiege us."
"Adventurers? What about the royal family's reinforcements?"
Loder was puzzled.
Lin Tian shrugged, "How should I know? I just saw a lot of adventurers."
Suddenly, Loder laughed loudly, "Those stingy bastards probably heard that even the Sword Saint failed and were too scared to come! Hahaha! Only these reckless adventurers dared to come.
But I must warn you, these adventurers are far stronger than the royal knights.
The royal knights are just trained and educated, but adventurers are survivors of countless life-and-death battles! Hehehe!"
Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the ]"
In the dim firelight, Loder's face looked particularly sinister as he laughed.
"Shut up!"
Lin Tian threw a piece of bloody cowhide at him, covering his face.
After eating and drinking their fill, Lin Tian went outside the waterfall.
He whistled, and his wyvern, named "Xiaohuan," flew over from a distant peak.
"Let's go, Xiaohuan. Let's go back and check the situation."
...
Bright Town.
After months of silence, it finally came back to life.
Hundreds of adventurers gathered, and the noise lasted all night.
In the tavern.
"Clink!"
Someone took a big gulp of drink and slammed the cup on the table, "Ah! That feels good! Hey, do you think the Sword Saintess can recover?"
"I doubt it. A generation's Sword Saint might just fall."
"If it were me lying in bed for months, I'd have gone crazy!"
In their banter, everyone couldn't help but show a look of regret.
They had all come after hearing that the Sword Saintess had been driven to collapse by a group of goblins.
First, they wanted to see if the story about the Sword Saintess was true.
Second, if it was true, they wanted to meet the goblin tribe that had defeated the Sword Saintess.
This event could be described as shocking the entire world.
It caused a huge sensation.
Not only in the Lionheart Empire but also in other empires, people were amazed, though mostly mocking.
A dignified Sword Saint, driven to collapse by goblins.
It was like an adult being thrown over the shoulder by an ant.
What do you think?
