At the party, everyone sang and danced happily together, forgetting that this was the competition stage for the seven schools.
He asked for a map of Reef Island from Wab, which was drawn on deerskin using the ashes left over from burning trees. The handwriting was messy, but one could still barely make out the general outline.
The central region of the map was missing, and only a few areas were outlined. It seemed that the Goblins didn't dare to enter the central region because it was too dangerous. Occasionally, there would be a few brave ones, but most of them never returned. Those that returned were delirious and had many holes in their bodies.
Their current location should be the most southeastern corner of the reef island. Many lines were drawn on the beach, and these lines converged into a black circle. This should be the creature that attacked Natalia.
"Squeak squeak squeak ~ Oh oh oh oh!"
"Oh!"
According to Nawab, a few years ago, when they were fishing, a monster with many tentacles suddenly appeared in the sea, causing great damage to the Goblins at the time.
Fortunately, the monster could only move around near the beach and could not cause any harm to the creatures on land. "Ahhhhhhh ~ Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"
Suddenly, in the midst of the party, a skinny Goblin covered in wounds ran out from a corner of the forest. Its fur clothing was stained with blood.
"Ahhhhhh ~ Huhu!"
It ran towards Wab with great difficulty and finally knelt down in front of him. It seemed like it was a very serious matter. Otherwise, Wab wouldn't be tearing up after hearing it.
"Gugugugu!"
"Avina, what are they saying?"
"This … the Goblin said that Wab's father, who was the tribe leader, was killed by Humans in the forest!"
"What?!"
Natalya and Liliana cried out in alarm.
"Could it be another contestant?"
"Wab …"
Natalia put her hand on Wab's shoulder sympathetically.
After all, it was because of the seven schools that Wab's father had passed away!
"Ahhhhhh ~"
Suddenly, with the back of his hand, Wab struck away the hand on his shoulder.
Wab turned around and stared at the three women with a terrifying gaze.
"Natalia, they must have mistaken us for the people who killed his father!"
Unknowingly, Natalia, Liliana, and Avina were surrounded by the Goblins.
Natalia and the others had no choice but to stick close to each other. If a fight really broke out, they could at least deal with it.
Natalia held the Six Divine Wings with both hands, Liliana finished her incantation, and Avina summoned the giant spider corpse.
A great battle was about to break out!
(That Goblin!)
Natalia noticed that the Goblin who was kneeling beside Wab revealed a sinister smile.
Natalia scrutinized the Goblin.
This body type … Could it be!?
At that moment, Wab suddenly raised his right hand high into the air.
All the Goblins obeyed the order and stopped.
Since the patriarch was murdered, as the patriarch's son, Wab, naturally took over the patriarch's authority.
"Wab, wab, wab, wab, wab?"
Seeing that the situation had calmed down, the injured Goblin stood up from the ground and spoke loudly to Wab.
"Ahahaha, wab!"
"Wab, wab, wab, wab!"
It seemed that they were quarreling.
"That injured Goblin seems to be calling Wab big brother. He seems to want to punish us, and Wab is defending us."
Avina said.
"Hey, Liliana, Avina, do you think this Goblin looks like the one who attacked us just now?"
"Now that you mention it, it does look like it!"
"Mhmm!"
The argument between Wab and his brother seemed to have stopped.
Wab turned around and faced the Goblins.
"Oh, oh, oh ~"
"He wants us to take a look at the patriarch's corpse first."
Wab's brother brought Wab and his companions to the second ring of the forest. They crossed a river, but the current was gentle, and they crossed it easily.
In order not to cause any more misunderstandings, Natalya and her companions followed them.
After crossing the river, they walked for a short distance. A Goblin's corpse was hanging from the trunk of a large tree. The corpse had been nailed to the tree by a large arrow through the heart. Black blood stained the grass beneath its feet. The corpse was wearing a hat made of twigs and dried grass, but it was tilted by the powerful recoil of the arrow.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh ~"
Wab fell to the ground below the corpse and hugged the corpse's legs with both hands as he cried bitterly.
It seemed that this was indeed the corpse of the Goblin patriarch.
"What a cruel method!"
Natalia glanced at Wab's brother, who had also fallen to the ground below the corpse. Although he was also very sad, Natalia knew very well that he was acting.
In terms of acting skills, Ragnar was probably the only one he knew who could compete with Natalya.
Her acting skills developed over many years at the dining table were not for show. If there was only one drumstick left on a plate, but both Ragnar and Natalia wanted to eat it, then they definitely couldn't directly take it. Instead, they had to pretend that they didn't care, and when the other party was careless, they would immediately snatch the drumstick.
Once, Ragnar and Natalia were in a deadlock at the dining table for more than half an hour, and in the end, Ah Bai snatched the drumstick from behind.
Speaking of Ah Bai, it had been a long time since she had seen him.
* Cough cough ~ * The topic has gone too far.
All in all, Natalia felt that the death of the patriarch was definitely related to Wab's brother.
Natalia circled around the tree and was surprised to find that the arrow had also made a hole at the other end of the trunk, and went straight through it.
To be able to pull such a large bow, it must have required a lot of strength. Although the intelligence of these Goblins was above average, in terms of physical fitness, it was impossible for them to shoot an arrow through a tree.
At this moment, Natalia suddenly noticed that there was something engraved near the arrow.
Natalia leaned over to take a look, and involuntarily read out the words on it.
