But what I got in return was their ridicule.
"How could goblins use traps? They're just a bunch of green-skinned beasts."
"Young people shouldn't be so timid."
"If you're so scared, why don't you go home and hide?"
The team then continued to move deeper into the cave.
Reiner was speechless for a moment.
Respect the fate of others and let go of the desire to help others.
Although Martina didn't understand Diastrian, she guessed what was going on and spread her hands. "Then let them die. What a bunch of foolish and arrogant people. People are divided into stupid and smart people, and goblins are naturally divided into smart and stupid ones."
Junice ran over and asked breathlessly, "Reiner, is everything you said true?"
"I can't be sure, but it's very likely."
"Then I'll go and help you persuade Dimas."
Reiner shook his head. "He won't listen. Just stay with us. Besides, I'm not sure. I just want to remind them."
Junice lowered her head as if thinking, and after a moment she said, "Then I'll follow you."
Reiner nodded.
The four of them followed the team from a distance.
Not long after walking, Nora grabbed Reiner and said, "Man, something seems to be happening."
"What?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a thick stone wall fell behind him, and the entire cave trembled.
Everyone's retreat route was completely blocked, and they couldn't escape even if they wanted to. They could only keep moving forward to find a way out.
Reiner took out the mace and said, "Nora, keep your ears open from now on. If anything happens, tell me."
"good."
The four of them walked deeper into the cave.
Not long after walking, they met two followers who were returning.
They looked at the stone wall behind them and wondered, "What happened?"
Reiner pointed behind him: "The mechanism has been activated, and our retreat is blocked."
The two followers walked up to the stone wall, kicked it hard, and then ran back quickly.
Junice shrugged. "It seems you are right, but Dimas doesn't listen to you. I have cleared out several goblin nests, but this is the only time I encountered such a monster.
Come to think of it, the goblins here are indeed unusual. This is the first time I’ve seen goblins making their own armor…”
Before Junice could finish her words, she heard a painful wail coming from the front.
The four of them ran over.
An adventurer stepped on a trap and had his calf pierced by a wooden splinter. He was screaming in agony.
"Bear with it." Dimas cut the wooden spikes with a sword and worked with his followers to pull the adventurer up.
Junice moved forward and pulled out the wooden splinter with force. Then a stream of water flowed out from the palm of her hand and wrapped the wound.
Soon, the torn calf stopped bleeding and gradually began to heal.
"It's healed. You can only walk for a while, otherwise the wound will burst open."
Dimas left the injured behind and continued on with the other adventurers.
Reiner, Martina and the others followed them from a distance.
There were many traps in this cave. Almost every time we walked a certain distance, we would hear news of someone getting injured, and the number of people in the team kept decreasing.
Including the two knights' squires, there were only a dozen or so people in their team who could move, and they had been almost halved by various traps.
Dimas also gradually became cautious from his initial indifference.
After a while, a ray of light appeared in the depths of the cave...
