Chapter 161 I Laugh at Heretics' Lack of Planning
Chase?
The old man stood up when he heard this.
He turned to Li Moss and said, "My lord, please allow us to serve you!"
He has to be involved in this kind of thing personally!
"no."
The saintess glanced at the old man, then looked at Li Mosi.
"Can we catch up now if we start chasing?"
If we hadn't chased them, they would have been far away by now.
"What's wrong with chasing them! They've run out of horses!"
Koyasu has never agreed with Haki Sei's views.
"Leaving aside those two nobles, even with just soldiers, I could carry you and still catch up!"
"Hey, smart kid. What are the leader and elders talking about?"
Greedy Meat nudged the clever kid with his elbow.
The clever boy started translating.
"They were discussing whether or not to hunt down the fleeing humans."
"Wow!"
Greedy for meat suddenly became excited.
"We have to chase them! Those humans are too annoying!"
The goblins around spread the news almost instantly.
"Can we catch up?"
"Let's try it! Those humans are so annoying!"
"Get ready quickly!"
"What are we going to do with these new humans?"
In just two sentences, all the goblins started squawking, startling the newly arrived slaves who looked around in fear.
"We can hunt them down."
Li Mosi finally raised her head and gave the result.
"The soldiers and nobles put their armor on the backs of the last remaining horses. They are now moving very slowly."
you can!
Upon hearing this news, the old man straightened up.
Zi Yi turned to the goblins: "Those humans are moving very slowly now! Who's willing to follow me in the hunt?!"
The goblins immediately erupted in chaos.
"I!"
"I do!"
"Follow the leader!"
"Kill those hateful humans!"
"Me too!"
Li Moss looked at the slaves: "I'm going to hunt down the nobles and soldiers! To prevent them from attacking again! Who among you is willing to fight alongside me?!"
Snapped!
The old man knelt down and shouted, "My lord ordered us to flee the nobility, so of course I will follow you!"
Immediately afterwards, dozens of slaves followed his example and knelt down.
"We are willing to follow you, adults!"
The other slaves realized what was happening and followed suit.
"We are willing to follow the adults!"
"Alright! Get up!"
Li Mosi stepped forward and helped the old man up.
He doesn't like seeing large groups of people kneeling all the time; it makes him uncomfortable.
Then he pointed to the unconscious slaves.
"Wake them up first, then the rest of you check your weapons for any problems. If there are any, report them immediately; otherwise, rest. It's going to be very tiring!"
"yes!"
"Yes, sir!"
Li Moss watched as the slaves sat down to rest, indicating that the weapons were working properly.
He returned to his original position and told his two disciples about the upcoming arrangements.
"Ziyi, leave half of the non-warrior goblins behind, and also leave the two overseer teams behind. The rest of the goblins and the new slaves will be chased together."
Zi Yi nodded.
"I understand, Master."
"no."
Haki interrupted.
Can the goblins and these children outrun those people?
"Are we just going to lead these people and chase after them head-on? Hmm!"
"Tsk."
Zi'an quickly covered her mouth.
"My late master said to pursue him, why are you talking so much?"
Li Mosi was speechless.
What happened to the saintess whose mind was racing during the battle?
He said to his two disciples, "The southern lowlands are still somewhat hilly. I'll lead you along an easier path."
Zi Yi quickly went to assign duties to the goblins.
Li Mosi and the old man, along with other slaves, pinched the philtrum of the unconscious slave.
Once the slaves have all woken up, they will line up and set off!
……
Shake, shake, shake, shake...
After a brief rest, the two barons led their soldiers back the way they came.
The group remained silent, with only the sound of footsteps echoing through the woods.
This was the first time they had set foot on this land.
Time seemed to stretch on forever, and the road beneath my feet appeared incredibly rugged.
Although it was deep in a cold, damp depression, it was still a primeval forest, so some depth and some shallowness were normal.
Even if they travel on relatively flat roads, they still have to cross slopes several meters high along the way.
This was an undeniable and crushing defeat.
Baron Stern turned to look at the somber soldiers behind him.
The once large and imposing procession has now dwindled to just over 120 people.
Fortunately, his and Baron Talis's soldiers survived and did not lose their lord.
But the knights' soldiers were in a bad situation.
They have even lost their lord, and they don't even know if their status and treatment can be guaranteed!
For a warrior to survive alone after losing his lord is a grave offense!
They would usually be treated as traitors!
Of the soldiers brought by the Knight of Matica, only three survived!
They knew how much Viscount Evasen valued his lord.
But they can't charge into battle with the lord!
If I survive now, what will become of me?
no one knows.
Baron Stern disliked the somber atmosphere, and he stopped looking at them, turning his head to glance at Baron Taliss, who was walking beside him.
Baron Talis remained silent, continuing to move forward.
He noticed Baron Stern's gaze, but he pretended not to notice and continued forward.
Cowardly brat.
Baron Stern frowned and turned his gaze back to what was in front of him.
Cowardly brat.
Baron Stern frowned and turned his gaze back to what was in front of him.
A hundred paces ahead of them was a gentle slope about five meters high.
The group hadn't paid attention to the terrain when they arrived, but seeing this place now reminded them of the battle that had just taken place.
This frightened the soldiers.
Those goblins are masters at using this kind of terrain!
The soldiers instinctively slowed their pace.
Hearing the commotion behind him, Baron Talis finally turned around.
Baron Stern caught a glimpse of his movement out of the corner of his eye and spoke while looking ahead.
"Little Talis, why didn't you explain this clearly before the fight?"
His tone was no different from casual conversation, but it was extremely grating at this moment.
"Enough! Haven't you all figured it out?"
Baron Taliss asked a loud question, which confused everyone.
Even Baron Stern, who was about to launch into questioning, stopped in his tracks.
Baron Talis continued speaking.
"We are fighting for the glory of the Holy See! We are fighting to prevent those goblins from extending their lewd hands to the Pure Land! We are fighting to ascertain the Saintess's whereabouts! We are fighting to cleanse ourselves of our sins!"
His words echoed in everyone's ears, making the soldiers straighten their backs a little.
He set the tone for this battle!
Baron Talis maintained a serious expression, his gaze sweeping over the soldiers.
silence.
The group came to a complete stop, and the forest fell silent.
Baron Talis raised his left fist high.
"Right within the goblin tribe, I found the dead saint! She commanded the goblins and slaves to attack us! I'm finally certain that the saint is dead! Killed by heretics!"
"Our battle was righteous! It was glorious! It was not in vain! We have confronted the evil mastermind of the heresy!"
"Next, I will tell the Papacy about the false saint and the heresy. The Papacy will surely rejoice at our sacrifice! They should rejoice too! Because with loyal and courageous warriors like you and your lord, the glory of the Papacy can continue to shine!"
Yes!
They are eliminating heresy for the Vatican!
It's just that heretics have invaded the forbidden area!
The soldiers looked at each other, their morale clearly rising.
"For the Vatican!"
"For our glory!"
It's unclear which soldier was the first to shout, but the other soldiers followed suit.
Isn't this just fooling yourself?
Baron Stern couldn't believe that Baron Taliss's words had actually worked.
It's important to know that the Vatican possesses divine magic to verify the truthfulness of statements!
"Can……"
Hahahaha!
Just as Baron Stern was about to ask a question, Baron Taliss looked ahead and burst into laughter.
This puzzled the soldiers.
The soldier at the front of the column, leading the horse, cautiously asked, "My lord, why are you laughing?"
Baron Talis pointed uphill ahead.
"I laugh at the false saint's lack of wisdom, I laugh at the goblins' lack of strength!"
"Our return speed is so slow; if the heretics are controlling orcs instead of goblins, they could ambush us here!"
"Who are you calling a fake?!"
"attack!"
