The Summon Goblin covered the Archer Goblin's mouth from behind, holding him firmly so he couldn't move.
Once the Archer Goblin was completely silent and a wisp of white soul floated from his body, Adrian controlled the Summon Goblin to carefully place the Archer Goblin's corpse on the stone pillar, preventing it from falling and alerting other Goblins.
But Adrian overlooked one detail.
As the Archer Goblin's blood dripped onto the ground below, a Goblin with nothing to do happened to walk directly beneath the broken wall where the Archer Goblin had been.
Fresh blood dripped from above onto his bald head.
He touched it with his hand, and upon realizing it was blood, he looked up and immediately started screaming.
The Goblins inside the church instantly became alert.
The Short Axe Goblin, who had been dozing, also came below the Summon Goblin with his axe, glaring up at the latter.
"You damned traitor, why did you kill our kin!"
The Short Axe Goblin angrily rebuked the Summon Goblin and ordered the other Goblins to drag the Summon Goblin down from above.
"Speak!"
The Short Axe Goblin grabbed the Summon Goblin's head with his large hand, lifting him up, while his other hand held an axe to the Summon Goblin's neck.
For some reason, although the Goblin in front of him looked exactly like his subordinate, the Short Axe Goblin felt a sense of unfamiliarity.
This unfamiliarity, coupled with the fact that the opponent had killed the Archer Goblin, made the Short Axe Goblin's heart burn with an urgent desire to kill him!
The Summon Goblin naturally wouldn't reveal the reason.
The Short Axe Goblin lost his patience in less than three seconds and chopped off the opponent's head with his axe.
"Hmm?"
Just as he was about to throw the head into the boiling cauldron to add to dinner, the Short Axe Goblin suddenly noticed the head in his hand disappearing.
The headless corpse also vanished under his gaze.
The Short Axe Goblin was startled; he quickly looked around.
By now, he understood that the Goblin he had just killed was not his subordinate, but something else.
There are enemies around!
This was the thought in the Short Axe Goblin's mind.
The Goblins inside the church also understood this point and cautiously looked at their companions around them.
Adrian 's other four Summon Goblins were now mixed among them.
When Adrian saw the Goblins beginning to suspect their companions, he pondered for a moment and came up with a plan.
Although he couldn't defeat the Short Axe Goblin, he could lure him away!
He used Goblin claws and a left ear to Summon another Goblin, sent him to the front of the church, and then, under the Short Axe Goblin's gaze, the Goblin began to curse loudly and make provocative gestures.
Seeing this, the Short Axe Goblin's rage immediately flared.
A Level 5 little Goblin dared to provoke him, a Level 6!
"You blind fool, become my dinner!"
The Short Axe Goblin snorted, two streams of white smoke coming from his nostrils, and ran towards the provocative Goblin with his short axe.
Seeing that the opponent had taken the bait, Adrian immediately ordered the Summon Goblin to run desperately into the forest.
"Although the Short Axe Goblin isn't a speed type, his level is higher than the Goblin I Summoned, so he'll catch up soon. And this period of time is my opportunity!"
Watching the Short Axe Goblin chase into the forest, Adrian immediately emerged from his hiding place, wooden shield in his left hand, short sword in his right, and ran towards the church.
At this time, among the sixteen Goblins in the church ruins, four were Adrian 's summoned creatures.
After the Short Axe Goblin left, these Goblins looked left and right, unsure what to do.
The surrounding Goblins were all familiar faces, but the treacherous Goblin just now was also a familiar face.
Therefore, no one could rule out that the Goblin beside them might be an enemy in disguise.
However, when Adrian appeared openly, all the Goblins focused their attention on Adrian .
"Awooo!"
All the Goblins bared their fangs and roared, grabbing their weapons and charging forward.
The Goblins beside them might be enemies, but the human in front of them was definitely an enemy!
And in the Goblins' minds, any Goblin that didn't kill humans must be an enemy in disguise!
Nevertheless, all sixteen Goblins in the church charged forward!
A Goblin holding a long spear, with a ferocious expression, charged at the very front.
But just as he was about to attack Adrian , he suddenly turned his spearhead and pierced the Goblin not far behind him!
This Goblin hadn't expected that the spearhead, which had been aimed at the human a moment ago, would pierce his own body the next moment!
"Fake!"
The pierced Goblin grabbed the spear shaft with his hand and shouted loudly to the other Goblins.
Beside him was a Goblin holding a short knife.
The Short Knife Goblin immediately moved closer, and then, under the pierced Goblin's despairing gaze, plunged the knife into his heart.
"This one is also fake!"
The surrounding true Goblins were stunned!
Why were there so many fake companions around?
The Short Knife Goblin and the Long Spear Goblin, as Summon Goblins No. 3 and No. 4, protected Adrian from left and right, facing thirteen Goblins!
"There shouldn't be any more, right?"
A Goblin's gaze lingered between Adrian and his companions.
"Just these three, let's take them down before the boss comes back!" Summon Goblin No. 2, hidden among the Goblins, roared as he charged forward, acting with the Short Knife Goblin, each move drawing blood!
"This one must be real!"
The other true Goblins, seeing this scene, immediately identified Summon Goblin No. 2 as a companion.
Two Goblins even ran up to help Summon Goblin No. 2 deal with No. 3!
At the same time, the other Goblins swarmed forward, surrounding Adrian and Goblin No. 4.
Just then, the unexposed Summon Goblins No. 2 and No. 1 simultaneously aimed their weapons at the true Goblins beside them, cooperating with Adrian and Nos. 3 and 4, instantly killing four Goblins!
However, No. 2 was also killed by an enraged true Goblin.
Adrian had outsmarted five of the thirteen Goblins, but he also lost one Summon Goblin.
But Adrian still had one set of Summoning materials in his backpack!
A light shone, and another Goblin appeared beside Adrian !
On the surface, it was 5 against 8.
But in reality, the true Goblins no longer completely trusted their own kind around them.
Adrian 's recent actions made them feel that this world was no longer safe.
Moreover, if they killed a fake one, another one could reappear!
There was no way to fight!
"Waaah~!"
One Goblin couldn't take it anymore; he turned around and ran without looking back.
With one Goblin leading the way, the remaining Goblins also climbed over the low wall of the church and scattered in all directions.
Adrian was overjoyed at this sight.
His main task today was not to hunt Goblins, but to save people!
These Goblins fleeing suited Adrian 's intentions perfectly.
He had the four Summon Goblins stand guard around, and Adrian quickly walked to the four women, who were stunned by the scene before them!
Adrian swung his short sword, cutting the sturdy vines.
"You are free!"
Adrian 's gentle voice echoed in the women's ears.
