"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

　With such a shout, one of the adventurers storms into the goblin village with a long sword in his hand.

"You fool. We haven't even checked if everyone is in position yet."

　The adventurer, who was a little far away, muttered in amazement.
　However, since the adventurers are trusted by the guild, their skills are worthy of trust, and the goblins in the village are being killed one after another.
　But... the adventurer, who was watching, looked displeased at the sight of the goblin being trampled down unilaterally by the adventurer who rushed in.

"Why don't the goblins run away in this situation?"

　Usually, goblins are very belligerent, but if the opponent who fought is strong, they could run away immediately.
　This is probably a village and home to the goblins, but if the adventurers knew it, they would have fled immediately if they were attacked by such a strong opponent.
　If you don't run away in such a situation, there must be some meaning in it... adventurers say what they mean.

"As expected, there are top or rare species."

　It was anticipated even before the battle began.
　In the first place, hundreds of goblins... or maybe more than a thousand goblins can't gather together in a situation where there is no one to collect them.
　If there is not enough existence to put together, and if there are so many, the village will collapse as soon as it moves on its own initiative.
　Because we knew that, we expected the existence of superior and rare species.

"Anyway... should the guy I meet knock it down?" I don't think any of the participants in this battle will be beaten like a goblin. I don't know about the Lizardman."

　In this battle, Lizardmen are overwhelmingly more numerous than adventurers.
　And I knew that Lizardman was reasonably competent, since everyone was from the army.
　At the same time, however, it was also true that there was a feeling that there might be a weak Lizard among them because of the large number.
　...but the status of existence is literally different between the Lizard and the Goblin.
　The Lizardman would not have been attacked by a goblin unless there was a great deal of course.

"Gyagyo!"

　Several goblins find adventurers in the village and attack them with clubs and rusty daggers in their hands.
　Originally, they were moving to deal with the adventurers who had plunged into the village first, but the moment they saw a new adventurer with a spear, they completely forgot about the other person, and only the adventurer in front of them was judged to be the enemy.
　If you easily knock down such a goblin, the adventurer looks around.
　...the most prominent of those who looked around were Ray and Seto.
　Ray trampling on goblins using two different kinds of long objects, Death Size and Twilight Spear, and Seto trampling on goblins using his ability as a glyphon to the fullest.
　It's not so strange that one by one this person is active.
　It is the best military force among those who came to destroy the Goblin village.
　But... it's a water wolf that's as active as one and the other.
　The water wolf, which was a little smaller than Seto, was now twice the size of Seto... transformed into a giant body about 6 meters in length.
　It's almost like a water wolf, and the adventurer sees it as a bigger one in the battle last night.
　Even so, it was surprising for adventurers to be able to change their appearance at such a distance from the lake, and the method of attack was overwhelming.
　It's because you find a goblin like a puck, swallow it whole, and dissolve it in the body in an instant.
　And, like enjoying the taste of a goblin, they also make sounds.
　For waterwolves, this goblin settlement is probably not an enemy but a snack place. 　If the adventurer here is a beginner or has an obsession with money, magic stones and materials, he will be frustrated that no magic stones are available because the goblins are digested by water wolves.
　However, the adventurers here did not care so much about the magical stones and materials of the goblins, as they were all trusted by the guild as strong men.
　Rather than tearing off the materials, magic stones, and evidence of subjugation, I think it would be more troublesome to dispose of the bodies of goblins, and I would even appreciate it if water wolves could dispose of the bodies of them.
　Notable were Ray, Seto and the water wolf, but the rest of us are also fighting quite overwhelmingly.
　In particular, Gaga wielded her weapon's great swords, cutting several goblins' bodies up and down at a stroke, or turning them into pieces of meat rather than cutting them if they were not in the right place.
　Other lizardmen use their weapons to kill goblins one after another.

"...that's strange,"

　Ray muttered, shaking off the blood attached to the death size.
　With such a large-scale attack going on, it is not surprising that higher or rare species may emerge.
　However, the only thing that comes out of the fighting like this is the normal goblins, and there is no sign of any superior or rare species coming out of the fighting.

(Did you run away yet? No, but I don't think you can run away so easily as long as you're surrounding the village.)

　The superior species are naturally smarter than the normal goblins.
　In the present situation of the village, if you thought you were in danger, you could have run away.
　However, it is a different matter whether you can escape by trying to escape.

"Anyway, higher and rare species are also important, but is it a priority to reduce the number of goblins?" . . . . Seto, it's all right to burn it, but don't let it spread into the Trent Forest!"

　Seto, who was attacking the goblins with a firebreth, stops spewing flames out of his mouth at Ray's words.
　It would not spread so easily, but Trent Forest trees were nonetheless a very important building material for Gilm, and in the future they were considered to be sold as goods.
　...but with the ability of the greens, the trees would grow faster.

"Do you think I'll let you go?"

　Seeing Ray calling on Seto, he probably tried to take the opportunity.
　Several goblins attempt to escape from underneath a fellow corpse lying on the ground, but their bodies are mutilated by Ray's wielding death size.
　And they were the Reys who were defeating the goblins one after another...

"My dear fellow!"

　Suddenly, I heard such a voice.
　No, it's not a voice, it's a voice that should be called an angry voice.
　The murderous and angry voice leaves the room for Seto to speak out.
　Then, when Ray arrived there, he saw... a scene where he could understand the angry voice.
　Two adventurers are looking at the goblins with murderous and angry eyes.
　But the reason why he hesitated to attack the goblins was because of what the goblins were holding.
　a wooden board
　Objectively speaking, that's the only way to describe it.
　However, the difference from ordinary wooden boards is that naked women were stuck to the wooden boards.
　Young women are in their teens and older women in their thirties.
　Also, naked... no, women with the remnants that can understand what was done by the goblins.
　Some of them are laughing, even though their hands and feet are pierced by wooden stakes and stuck to wooden boards.
　Even a woman who is not crazy yet cannot be alright if her hands and feet are pierced by a stake, and she cries out in pain.
　Seeing the shield attached by such women, Ray could also understand the attitude of the adventurer who saw it.
　However, although I understand... I wonder what to do.
　The adventurers hesitated, although they should have attacked without worrying if they were brought out with such meat shields.
　That's what made the goblins understand that this shield works.

(Well, if I could show you anything like this, you might be upset.)

　Even if such a meat shield is suddenly prepared in front of you, it will be rare for you to be able to attack without hesitation.
　In that sense, it was only natural that we should have had this result like this.

(However, there is no way that a normal goblin would use a woman as a shield. Then... there are some higher or rare species)

　Ray made that decision, but the problem is that he doesn't know where the higher or rare species are.

(Are you behind that shield?)

　About 30 goblins are gathered, holding meat shields and hiding inside.
　If that's the case, it's impossible to deny the possibility that there are superior or rare species enemies there.

"Anyway, we need to go inside those shields to help the women. ...I'll go."
"Can you do it?"

　One of the adventurers muttered to Ray's words.
　Fortunately, the goblins have meat shields, but they are not strong enough to carry them, so they don't seem to attack from over there.
　If it were a bow or a wizard, it would have been a different story, but only the ordinary goblins were trapped inside the shield.
　Thanks to you, I had the time to talk leisurely in front of the shield.

"You can do it."

　Ray I swear.
　Ray's words alone allowed the adventurer to believe them.
　If it wasn't for Ray, I wouldn't have been able to trust him right away.However, anyone here knows how good Ray is.
　That's why the adventurer mutters a word to Ray, who declared it.
　After hearing the word, Ray leaves the scene.
　What I'm going to do now is because it tastes bad when viewed by goblins.
　Then, when you get away from the place where the goblins are using the meat shield, you run straight and kick the ground and jump as hard.
　With Ray's high physical ability, he jumped to a considerable height and activated Slapnil shoes.
　Kick through the air as it is and go up further.
　A few more steps were kicked through the air and advanced... before I knew it, Ray was right above a group of goblins using meat shields.

(Here it is)

　Calculating the approximate distance, Ray cuts the effect of Slapnil's shoes.
　Then, Ray's figure naturally falls from the sky to the ground.
　Then it lands in a flock of goblins.
　For the goblins, when they were relieved to be safe with a meat shield, Ray suddenly fell from above.
　The goblins, who at first did not notice it was Ray, only became confused and noisy... the next moment, the goblins were blown outwards by a blow from Ray's twilight spear.

"Now!"

　The adventurers react quickly to Ray's words.
　That's probably the reason Ray believed he would do something about this situation.
　When the goblins were blown away, the women who were used as meat shields also fell to the ground, the wooden stakes penetrating the hands and feet were pushed and screamed from the women's mouths.
　There was laughter coming from the mouth of the woman, who had already lost her sanity.
　Anyway, Ray's twilight spear blow the goblins from within, creating a huge gap.
　Ray, who did it as a matter of course, does not miss the opportunity, and quickly penetrates the fallen goblin's head with a twilight spear.
　Of course, it's not just penetrating, but checking if there are any higher or rare species among the fallen goblins.
　From Ray's experience of looking at some of the higher and rare species, the higher and rare species often have a different appearance from the original species.
　It's not strange to have that kind of appearance that you can see at a glance from behind.
　That's why Ray was checking out the goblins that were falling down quickly.

(Not here)

　Ray is frustrated that it's a normal goblin lying down.
　As long as you can't imagine ordinary goblins trying to use such meat shields, there must have been some higher or rare species in this village.
　But why can't you find it?
　In any case, the women who were now shielded by flesh to reduce the number of goblins left to the adventurers and left the scene.
