Chapter 116 Using bombs again.

Entering the cave, the humans changed their weapons to short swords and hatchets, since they were easier to use in a cramped space.

They moved ahead slowly, paying attention to the slightest noise and trying to remain quiet themselves, not wanting to alert the remaining goblins of their presence yet.

The dwarves were moving quite fast underground but that was thanks to their experience as they spent most of their lives in their underground cities or working in their mines.

It took them a few minutes to arrive at the larger cavern from which there were a few paths leading to other parts of this place.

-The passage on the left leads to the area holding slaves, the one next to it leads to their treasury the right tunnel leads to their living area, and the two in front lead to their chief's chamber and their kitchen if you can call it that.

The red-bearded dwarf whispered, not wanting to alert the four goblins who were supposed to guard this area but were sleeping instead.

-We will go free the slaves first and then we can wipe the rest of the goblins out.

Paul said and everyone nodded in agreement.

The four goblin guards paid for their negligence with their lives, never even realizing that they died as four hatchets almost split their heads in half.

Just a this moment a female goblin entered the chamber, carrying some food for the guards.

Seeing the humans and dwarves, not only free but armed, and the four guards that were now lying in pools of green blood, she was surprised for a second.

The next moment, fear made her want to run and alert the others but she didn't get the chance as a throwing knife pierced her throat, right before a hatchet thrown by a dwarf embedded itself in her chest, ending her life.

After that, Paul stored all the bodies and the group proceeded to the slaves holding area where they found another two goblins guarding around a dozen slaves from various races that were chained to the wall.

This time however the guards were more alert and discovered the attackers when they approached as there was nothing to hide behind in the passage but at the same time they were in plain sight as well and they both ended with an arrow.

One to the chest and the second one through the eye.

The moment they fell, dwarves rushed forward and decapitated them, just to be sure that they were dead, and took the keys to the chains from one of the bodies.

-Be quiet, we are all getting out of here.

The red-bearded dwarf said to the rest of the slaves, removing the chains from them at the same time.

Slaves fell to the ground the moment they were released but after a moment they started to get back on their feet.

-Where is the rest?

The dwarf asked as some of the people were missing.

-Not long ago the four of them came and took three girls to that goblin bitch.

A wolf-kin man said.

-How long ago was that?

-I don't know but not that long, if you hurry then you might be able to save them.

The man shook his head.

-We will try, and I promise that she will be hacked to death today.

The dwarf said with an ice-cold voice.

-Humans we must change the plan, we need to go to the chief chamber as fast as possible and try to save these three girls.

He said looking at the humans.

-If that's the case then let's move.

Paul said and the other three nodded while moving out.

They also wanted to save the slaves if it was possible.

This time they didn't even try to sneak around but rushed as fast as they could, arriving at the chief chamber shortly.

Without even stopping they barged in after they heard a scream of pain coming from inside.

What they saw froze their blood.

The three girls were hanged by their hands, naked and their bodies looked like a bloody mess with cuts everywhere.

The moment the goblins inside noticed the uninvited guests, they wanted to attack them, but before they could even move, they were already on the floor.

-Stop, don't kill them.

Paul shouted.

-Why? You saw what they did to these three and they are not the first ones that were taken by this bitch.

The dwarf who was holding the female goblin asked angrily.

-Because a quick death is too good for them and these ladies might want to get some revenge, not to mention the rest of the slaves.

Paul said while freeing the girls from the rope that bound them.

All three of them tried to struggle at first.

They were in too much pain to even realize that it was not the goblins who lowered them down.

They collapsed to the floor the moment they were lowered or would have if Luo Mo and Paul hadn't caught them in time.

Paul immediately took out three capes, wrapped them around their bodies, and used healing magic right after that to close their wounds and ease their pain.

Only then did the three girls realize that the goblins were captured and they were saved.

They felt a bit of relief and that was enough for two of them to lose consciousness while the third one lasted around a minute longer before joining them.

While healing them, Paul was just how wounded they all were and his blood boiled from anger.

Nobody deserved such treatment and these goblins would pay for that with their lives.

-Where is the escape route from this cave?

Paul asked, calmly.

His calm voice however sent a chill down everyones spine.

-Behind their living area.

One of the dwarfs answered while swallowing nervously.

-Where is the lowest point in this cave?

-The escape route starts at the lowest point, why?

The same dwarf answered.

-Take everyone and leave the cave.

Paul stated.

-No way, we still have to wipe them out.

-I will handle that, you just need to get out before that.

He said calmly.

Hearing this everyone left, taking the slaves with them.

-Uncle hold on to this.

Paul said stopping źiao Han for a moment and giving him a piece of paper.

-What is that?

-My escape route.

The moment the last slave left Paul used magic to seal the entrance with a thick piece of rock.

Then proceeded to execute his plan.

He went around the cave leaving bombs everywhere, not forgetting to loot the treasury.

Once he was finished planting explosives everywhere and by the way, killing every goblin in the kitchen, he went to the living area, using the shadow jump, he located the escape route and used the same spell to block it.

Now the cave was sealed but the goblins would not find out about it until it was too late.

He planted some incendiary bombs around the living area, being careful not to be discovered.

Once the preparations were completed, which took him around half an hour, Paul prepared a few bombs standing next to each other while hanging one from the ceiling with a thick rope, which he set on fire.

The moment the rope started to burn he cast the shadow jump and emerged next to Xiao Han, who jumped at his sudden appearance.

-Is it done?

The red-bearded dwarf asked.

-It will be soon.

Paul said and like on cue they all heard a series of muffled bangs.

-Now it is done.

The young human said grimly.

-You also forgot to take your things from their treasury.

He said taking out a few sets of dwarven armor and weapons along with many other items he had looted from the goblins who if they were not burnt alive, were now suffocating in the sealed cave.

-What was that sound?

The dwarves asked.

-It was the sound of goblins getting what they deserved.

Right now, they are all either burnt to death or are suffocating inside their lair.

Paul explained like he was talking about the weather.

-You used bombs, didn't you?

Luo Feng asked.

-Yes and it seems that they worked as intended.

He answered casting the search spell and seeing that most of the goblins were already dead and the rest would soon join them.

-Then what are we going to do with these five?

Luo Mo asked.

-I think that their former slaves might want to discuss some things with them.

Paul said with a grin.

Hearing his words the former slaves looked at the tied-up goblins with hatred and their former masters started to struggle, knowing full well that their deaths would be anything but fast or painless.
