Lorraine immediately and firmly gave the order, then slowly turned his head and said to Freya in a soft voice, "Take Shuleiya and Ren back to our warm room. I will come to you after I deal with this difficult matter."
"I want to help, Hubby~"
Freya retorted softly, insisting that she could also contribute, her eyes filled with determination, unwilling to stand idly by.
Shuleiya tightly grasped the hem of her skirt, her eyes revealing deep confusion and hesitation.
She didn't know whether she should help Lorraine—although he looked like a goblin, she could sense his kindness and tenacity.
Ren seemed extremely curious, with a desire for the unknown flashing in her eyes. She wanted to know what kind of person broke into the goblin's lair.
Is he the warrior who comes to rescue the beauties and save them and the nuns who have unfortunately fallen into the hands of the goblins?
Lorraine turned around and said in a more determined tone, "Listen to me and go back quickly!"
Seeing Lorraine's attitude, Freya had no choice but to give up and obediently took Shuleiya and Ren to the deepest part of the cave.
Five hours ago.
In the Adventurer's Guild of a small border town in the Kingdom of Giorar, a team of three took on a mission to defeat goblins.
The young and energetic brown-haired boy in the team has messy hair and a pair of eyes sparkling with courage. He looks like an anime protagonist.
Standing next to him was a female adventurer. She had a sturdy build with well-defined muscles and was obviously a well-trained melee fighter.
In sharp contrast to her was a somewhat shy sorceress who whispered in a low voice, wore a magic hat full of mysterious magic on her head, and held a very simple staff tightly in both hands, as if ready to cast a spell at any time.
After their continuous efforts, the three of them finally raised their level to level 11 on this day and officially became iron-level adventurers.
Therefore, they decided to accept a more difficult task today—to attack a goblin nest. In their eyes, goblins were just some weak and easy-to-deal-with enemies, like green monsters that could be easily killed.
Through this crusade, they are eager not only to get rid of those trivial and embarrassing tasks, such as cleaning up big rats and finding lost pets, but also to prove their strength and courage.
In the eyes of these new adventurers who have just achieved some success, goblins are weak and powerless green monsters that can be killed in large numbers with ease.
If it weren't for the Adventurer's Association's rule that an expedition mission requires a team of at least four people, they would have set off long ago.
Just then, a new adventurer like them broke into the Adventurer's Guild.
A few people turned around and found that the person who came was wearing white priest clothing and a staff. Combined with her soft golden long hair and her cute baby face that was delicate, fair, and tender, she made people feel very comfortable at first glance.
This young, beautiful, and plump priestess looks even more eye-catching in her white priestess costume.
Her top is made of comfortable and lightweight white satin fabric, and the cuffs and hem are decorated with delicate lace, making the entire upper body look more elegant and attractive.
A gold embroidery thread is inlaid in the middle dividing line, giving the priestess a more religious feel.
The hem extends to the ground, blending seamlessly with the fairy-like priestess costume.
Looking from a distance, it seems as if you are seeing a pure, flawless, gentle, and lovely angel.
The priestess also wore a white feather headdress with a hook that turned into a beautiful and solemn white rose.
Seeing the appearance of the priestess, the members of this adventurer team smiled.
Finally, someone might be able to team up with them.
What's more, she is a clergyman!
This is a very popular profession in the Adventurer's Guild. It can use multiple miracles, including light attribute miracles and healing spells. It is a precious profession protected by Mother Earth!
It is worth mentioning that in this continent, miracles and magic are interconnected, both of which consume magic points to pray and cast spells, so the number of miracles is the same as magic, and is determined by the amount of magic points.
The priestess is now at a lower level and has less magic power, so she can only use miracles three times.
"Hello, would you like to join our team? We are going to attack the Goblin's nest together."
The brown-haired swordsman's eyes sparkled with anticipation. He gave a sincere and warm smile and invited the priestess girl in front of him to form a team.
Just like that, after hesitating for a moment, the priestess girl smiled softly, nodded slightly, and said in an almost inaudible voice, "I'd be happy to join."
At this moment, her joining not only brought new strength to the team, but also opened a new chapter for her own adventurous life.
However, just as they were preparing to set out together, the counter lady at the Adventurer's Association posted a new expedition mission list.
This eye-catching task list immediately attracted the attention of a large number of low-level adventurers nearby. They were all iron-level adventurers who stayed in the Adventurer's Association to brag and brag because they failed to grab any tasks.
"What? The St. Mary's Church on the border was attacked by goblins, and a large number of nuns were abducted?"
"The Sky Mother Church offers a 100 gold reward for the goblins' heads and for rescuing the abducted nuns."
"The reward for this mission is really generous. As expected of the Church of the Sky Mother, they are rich."
"Okay, I'll take on this mission. They're just goblins. I can chop them down by myself."
"It just so happens that all the high-level adventurers are on quests right now, so those of us who didn't get any quests are getting a great advantage."
"No, you want to keep the money all by yourself, I want to join in too."
"Count me in, count me in."
"…"
Just like that, under the bounty issued by the Church of Sky Mother, the mission that was originally intended to be undertaken by a team of four instantly turned into a mission for a team of 20 adventurers.
After all, just by killing some goblins, you can split the 100 gold coins equally, which is much better than those rubbish tasks that only give a few copper coins or silver coins.
Although the highest level among this team of 20 adventurers is only a level 19 iron-level adventurer, this does not affect their morale.
After all, which adventurer doesn't have a heart that longs for adventure?
Especially since there is so much reward available, it is better to complete the great task of rescuing the cute nun girl from the monster's lair!
Soon, this huge team of adventurers set off.
On the way, they even suspected that there were not enough goblins in the caves for them to kill.
Time goes back to the present.
The entrance to the Goblin Lair.
A large group of adventurers is heading towards the goblin's lair.
This team includes swordsmen, fighters, knights for close combat, magicians, archers for ranged combat, and even a priest and another healer for treatment.
With such a perfect pairing, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they can conquer not only the goblins, but also the orc tribe.
After careful search, a team of 20 adventurers finally found the location of Lorraine's goblin nest.
In order to make the enemy let down their guard, Lorraine had already hidden the goblin minions outside the nest in advance and waited for them to enter the nest before appearing again.
"It looks like we are right. There is only one goblin nest around, and there are obvious signs of goblins living there. Let's go in now!"
The brown-haired boy pointed inside, walked confidently at the front of the team, picked up a torch, and prepared to rush in.
"Um... is it okay? This goblin nest looks quite large, there may be dozens of goblins. Wouldn't it be a bit impulsive if we don't investigate?"
In the team, a male magician wearing glasses pushed up the frame of his glasses and said.
"Otherwise, let's go back and make some more preparations, wait for some high-level adventurers to come back, and then come with them to attack the goblin nest."
At this time, the priestess became a little timid and began to retreat, holding the staff in her arms.
For some reason, she had a very bad premonition, as if something bad would happen as soon as she entered the cave.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. They're just goblins!"
The brown-haired swordsman patted his chest very happily and said with a nonchalant smile.
"Yeah! They're just goblins. Even if a high-level goblin shaman is born, it's just a matter of firing a few more magic bullets. What's the problem?"
