Chapter 456 – Villain Cultivator 2.0 (10)
Kai was a 17-year-old orphan. When he was 10, his parents sold him as a slave, and the army bought him as a slave soldier. He had been serving the Kingdom of Yeduk as a footman ever since.
As Kai had been through countless battles against goblins, the king rewarded him with freedom. As Kai couldn't read, he continued working as a soldier, and he was promoted to a 10-man commander. He was transferred to the border since then.
One day, a group of scouts returned with several corpses of knight cadets, who had gone into the goblin forest to gain experience. None of the 20 people came back alive.
A few hours after the report, the fortress walls were bombarded by an unknown entity from the forest. Countless soldiers and mages that were on patrol were dead while thousands were injured.
An emergency dispatch order came from the fortress generals. They hired a group of mercenaries, aka the adventurers, to enter the goblin forest to search for the missing people and investigate the cause of the 20-man unit's annihilation. As for the main armies and immortal knights, they would be mobilized to subdue the mysterious entity.
Kai was dispatched along with the adventurers. Many knight cadets from various knight academies also joined in to gain experience. However, there was one issue.
One of the cadets was the son of Duke Merde. His status was superior to every mercenary and knight of the investigation unit.
His name was Jacques. He had European features and short blond hair. However, he was only 5'5 tall and weighed 250 pounds. His big belly, round face, and chubby arms mismatched his knight cadet status. Moreover, he only managed to condense one mana circle, which was lower than average knights and adventurers.
Everything would have been alright if this short fatty just tagged along for the experience. However, Jacques confronted the platoon commander, who was the only 9-circle knight in this unit.
Jacques forced the knight commander to follow his order.
The only Jacques' strong point was his audacity and his status. As Kai had expected, the knight commander yielded his position to the arrogant rookie, and Jacques ordered the platoon of 400 fighters to charge toward the woods right away.
Nobody dared to refute his decision. They ended up marching to the ruined camp of the destroyed unit. When they arrived, they cleaned the area and set up an outpost camp, using it as an operation base and a rendezvous point for an emergency retreat.
.
Kai followed the troops as a rearguard, watching over the supply wagons of their platoon. When they finished setting up their outpost camp, Jacques ordered everybody again.
"Stop building camp! Why are we building a camp before noon?! It's daytime. We have to search for the rampaging goblins! Go, go! All units! Charge into the forest and find me the goblins!"
"…"
Kai heard the order, and he frowned. They hadn't set up the fences, dug the moats, and built watchtowers yet. There was a lot of work to do before nighttime. As for the expedition, it could be done tomorrow morning when the retreat route and the backup camp had been secured.
Kai's colleague whispered to him, "Is that fatty for real? We're supposed to find the culprits that killed the cadets and rescue the missing people. Why is this turning into a raid party?"
Kai had the same thoughts, but he could tell what Jacques was aiming for.
"He just wants to look good in front of the women. You know that knights and adventurers work out, right? They have better figures than local women or prostitutes. Even if they have a scar or two, their toned bodies are more attractive than malnourished townswomen."
"Damn, how the hell did you know all that?! Maybe, are you…"
"Shut it, punk!"
Kai smacked the back of his friend's head. He packed up some jerky in his backpack and refilled his water canteens. Then, he picked up his spear and ordered his unit.
"Make sure to pack at least 10 days' worth of food and water! Don't expect to get resupplied during the expedition!"
The nine soldiers under Kai including the colleague next to him saluted and repacked their backpacks. Then, they followed the other units to join their expedition.
.
Kai's unit wasn't the only one preparing for a long trip, the adventurers also did the same. Each carried at least 10 days' worth of dried food and water, but they left the tents and other necessities behind in the outpost.
Meanwhile, Jacques ordered his subordinates something else.
"Bring the tents with us! We will make another outpost in the forest! Don't forget my rib-eye wagyu, butler. I want a steak as my lunch!"
The adventurers, the knights, and the old commander of the troops frowned at Jacques, but none of them stopped the young master.
After everybody packed their supplies, the old commander designated 150 people to guard the outpost and secure their escape route. Then, he dispatched scouts to find tracks of nearby goblins in the area.
It didn't take long for them to find the bloodstain of the knights that Miaomiao had murdered. A few minutes later, they discovered the dead bodies. However, they couldn't find the next lead or the missing knight captain.
Jacques also came to see the corpses. He then gave another weird order, "Burn them here and keep searching! We need that goblin's head. I want my war trophy!"
"…"
Kai and his men squinted their eyebrows and shook their heads. As for the other adventurers and the knights, they started to get annoyed. Even though the dead people were not their colleagues, they deserved a proper burial or a funeral as their families might be waiting for them at home.
The old commander had enough. He denied the order, "Bring the corpses back to our camp and send them home."
A group of adventurers acknowledged that order. They wrapped the corpses with clothes and brought them back to the outpost.
.
.
Miaomiao watched their movements from afar. Upon noticing that they separated into two groups, he rejoiced. He eyed the people in the outpost, who were busy chopping wood and making spike traps.
Among 150 people, 50 were female. Miaomiao salivated as he eyed the women.
'Damn, I feel like a villainous goblin from a certain goblin-hunting story. Anyway, I can't attack them now since they outnumber me. I have to use the good old strategy.'
Miaomiao picked up a fruit from a tree and fill a bowl of water, made from coconut fruit. Then, he brought them to his burrow.
Upon returning, Miaomiao found the unconscious knight girl in the hole. She seemed exhausted from the non-stop sexual pleasure. He peeled the strange-looking mango and cut it into small pieces. Then, he placed them and a bowl of water on a large leaf next to her.
The scent of fresh fruit awakened the captive. She wearily opened her eyes and noticed the fruit. The starvation drove her instinct, and she devoured the mango and the water in seconds.
After making sure that the woman was fed, Miaomiao hugged her from behind and resumed his activity to kill time. He also covered her mouth, not allowing her to make any noise.
"Mmm!"
The woman wanted to scream, but she had no strength left in her. Moreover, her desire built up as Miaomiao's fluid contained strong aphrodisiacs for women. As soon as he touched her, she automatically lift her bottom to receive his seeds.
The sounds of contacting flesh and panting were silent as Earth filtered their voices. They indulged in their carnal desire like a pair of rabbits until night.
.
At night, the knight woman fainted again as she had no strength left. Her round belly looked bigger than when she first arrived as she had drunk so much white juice to the point that she was full.
Miaomiao left her alone and went back to the surface.
The torches of the knights and adventurers pinpointed their locations in the dark. Miaomiao almost laughed at the human's vulnerability at night while he navigated through the forest.
The 250-man unit traveled five kilometers deep into the forest and set up another camp on a clear land. Their bonfires and torches caused several wild animals to flee from the area while many dire wolves and tigers eyed them from a distance.
As for Miaomiao, he had no business with this group. He arrived at the outpost camp.
The traps and the fences were incomplete. One-third of the camp was covered, but the flanks were wide open.
Miaomiao observed the camp and noticed a total of 80 guards standing watch. All of them had two or three mana circles, and their weapons and armor glittered in a strange light.
'Magic weapons? Meh, low-grade at best.'
To Miaomiao, those weapons and armors were low-grade artifacts that he used to have when he was a mortal. Killer Queen was superior to those junks.
But in this situation, the Solid Snake strategy might not be the right choice. The security was too tight for a one-man raid tactic in this situation. Moreover, their main troops were nearby, and they could rush here in a few minutes if they could fly.
Contemplating the situation, Miaomiao decided to wait longer.
.
Miaomiao lost count of how long he had been watching them. It was 2 AM, but the number of guards didn't reduce. Instead, out of 150 soldiers in there, 120 of them were wide awake!
He was at a loss for what to do. He wondered if he should attack them head-on and flee after he snagged one or two women.
ZAG-ZAG
Suddenly, Miaomiao sensed some movements behind him. He was surprised how they managed to get so close to him without getting detected by his Qi sense.
Miaomiao turned around and found silhouettes of 200 small creatures. He frowned and narrowed his eyes as he clearly saw the faces of heinous and ugly monsters, who looked similar to his adoptive father goblin.
One of the goblins crawled toward Miaomiao, but he didn't show hostility.
"Hobgoblin, hello, GOB!"
'Hobgoblin?'
Miaomiao was confused. He wondered if this goblin mistook him for a hobgoblin. Still, he greeted back in a hushed voice.
"What are you doing here, goblins?"
"We. Hunt. GOB! Detecting. Women's Scent. GOB!"
"Oh."
Miaomiao nodded as he understood their primitive linguistic skill. He wondered if he played too hard and made a group of thirsty goblins come out from their nests.
Seeing that the goblins came out in a large group, Miaomiao scanned their strength. Then, he was slightly disappointed. Most of them didn't have even a mana circle. Out of 200 goblins, only seven had one mana circle, and they were shamans.
'They're bad. No wonder the goblins are on the verge of extinction. But since they're here, I can use them.'
Miaomiao looked at their weapons. Surprisingly, they carried bows, arrows, and clubs. Some of them wore a piece of adventurer's leather armor or weapon that they had looted from their victims.
They might not be useless after all. If they prioritized using range weapons, they might be good at ambushing.
Miaomiao smirked. He had an idea.
"Actually, I'm planning to raid that camp. I'll be the vanguard. Can you provide me cover with your arrows?"
"Raid, GOB? We. STRONK! We. Raid. GOB! Women. Seedbeds. Capture. GOB!"
"Now, we're talking. I only need one or two women. You can take the rest. Deal?"
"Fair. GOB! Raid. GOB!"
Miaomiao widely grinned. He pulled out Killer Queen and looked at the other goblins. As if they had heard their conversation, they already prepared their bows and arrows.
"Alright. Shoot as soon as I jump out. Be ready."
"READY. GOB!"
