Chapter 69 Hidden Motives

"What are you carrying behind you?"

Ye Feng didn't move, but pointed at the goblin corpse carried by Xie Zijun.

It was the one that had tried to attack Ye Feng just now but was finished off by Ye Feng's blade.

"Oh, that's the messenger of our Green God Town's deity!"

Speaking of this, Xie Zijun's expression was a bit unpleasant.

"The messenger of a deity?"

"Holy cow!"

Ye Feng was shocked. Someone actually considered goblins as messengers of a deity?

Could the deity these people worshipped be a large goblin?

"What's wrong, Mr. Explorer?"

Seeing Ye Feng looking at the goblin corpse thoughtfully, Xie Zijun frowned.

"Oh, it's nothing~"

Ye Feng shook his head gently, then walked quickly in a direction with Xiao Xiao.

"A Chai, A Ya, you two go keep an eye on them!"

Xie Zijun whispered to two burly men behind him.

"Yes, Young Master Jun!"

The two nodded in unison, then followed.

...

"Young Master Jun, that... how should we explain this messenger of Lord Green?"

After Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao disappeared from Xie Zijun's sight, a burly man carrying the goblin corpse asked Xie Zijun tremblingly.

"Don't worry~"

"I've already thought of a way to fix it!"

Xie Zijun looked in the direction Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao had left, a sinister smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Immediately, Xie Zijun turned to the white-haired old man with a worried expression, "Old Zhang, which direction did those two come from?"

"Was it from the direction of the messenger of Lord Green?"

...

Meanwhile,

Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao had entered Green God Town and were walking on the streets.

"Big brother, what's wrong?"

Seeing Ye Feng looking a bit worried, Xiao Xiao asked with concern.

"Oh, it's nothing~"

Ye Feng waved his hand.

At this moment, he was feeling quite depressed.

Although he had borrowed Barrett

However, the combat power boosted by external objects, even disposable ones, was never as reliable as strengthening oneself...

So, Ye Feng had thought of killing the goblins if he found any nearby to gain precious usable points.

But now it seemed that the goblins were the deities worshipped in this Green God Town.

On the buildings lining the streets, there were many sculptures and signs depicting goblins with bared teeth and claws...

"What kind of bizarre town is this, worshipping something like goblins?"

"Could this Green God Town be a gathering place for some cult organization?"

"The 'Lord Green' mentioned by Xie Zijun's group is likely a goblin..."

For a moment, various miscellaneous thoughts flashed through Ye Feng's mind.

"Hmm?"

Ye Feng suddenly frowned, and he said to Xiao Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, come with me!"

Saying that, Ye Feng pulled Xiao Xiao and quickly walked towards a secluded corner.

"They're running away, chase!"

Xie Zijun's two subordinates, A Chai and A Ya, saw Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao quicken their pace and immediately trotted after them.

"Uh! ~ Bang bang! ~"

As they passed a corner, after a muffled groan, two dull thuds were heard.

It was Ye Feng who had knocked both A Chai and A Ya unconscious on the ground.

"These two seem to be subordinates of that Xie Zijun~"

Xiao Xiao looked them over and recognized them.

"Yeah, looks like we've been targeted~"

Ye Feng nodded, then placed A Chai and A Ya in a corner and covered them with debris.

...

After taking many turns, the two returned to the town streets.

"Big brother, the people in this town are so strange!~"

Xiao Xiao lowered her voice and said to Ye Feng.

"Yeah, worshipping goblins, how could they not be strange!"

Ye Feng strongly agreed.

"Although it's strange to worship terrifying, disgusting, and ferocious monsters, that's not what I mean~"

Xiao Xiao nodded, then shook her head.

"Then what do you mean by strange?"

Ye Feng was a little curious.

"It's the townspeople!"

"Their eyes when they look at us are all strange, with no hope, only despair... or completely empty and soulless..."

"Hmm, how should I put it... they don't look quite like people..."

Xiao Xiao tilted her small chest, thought for a moment, and then explained.

"And, I just saw a middle-aged woman, her eyes were full of lingering affection and doting when she looked at me..."

"Finally, she suddenly turned away and cried..."

She paused and added.

"This..."

Ye Feng frowned.

He had initially thought that the people of Green God Town were all crazy or cultists, worshipping goblin monsters and treating them as deities.

Therefore, his view of people and things was somewhat preconceived...

Now, after hearing Xiao Xiao's words, perhaps things weren't as he had imagined?

"Xiao Xiao, did you notice?"

At this moment, Ye Feng spoke, "As we've walked, we haven't seen any young girls... even women are very few..."

"The few that are there are all very old, almost no young ones..."

Ye Feng frowned.

"Big brother, it really seems to be the case!~"

Xiao Xiao looked around and nodded in agreement.

"Little child, run quickly!"

Suddenly, a thin middle-aged woman rushed up from behind and shouted at Xiao Xiao.

"Hmm?"

Ye Feng turned his head, looking a bit confused.

Didn't that white-haired elder named Zhang also tell him to take Xiao Xiao and run? What was going on?!

"Big brother, it's the old woman I was talking about who cried~"

Xiao Xiao said to Ye Feng.

"You're risking your life!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man rushed out, his expression pained, "I've already lost Nannan, I can't lose you too, hurry back and hide!"

After speaking, the middle-aged man hugged the middle-aged woman and walked back.

Before leaving, he kept winking at Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao, his expression anxious...

"Big brother, this place, whether it's people or other things, is so strange!"

Xiao Xiao looked at Ye Feng with some confusion.

"Indeed!"

Ye Feng nodded.

Based on the observations of various clues, he began to have a guess.

Perhaps there was another hidden reason for Green God Town!

"Yo ho!"

"Two explorers, it's getting dark, are you looking for lodging?"

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a protruding belly, holding two beads in his hand, walked over.

"Who are you?"

Ye Feng looked at the other person with some confusion.

In this apocalyptic environment with insufficient food and many dangers, everyone he knew was thin. Yet this middle-aged man before him was so fat!

"I am Sang Yang, the owner of the inn in Green God Town!"

After speaking, the middle-aged man pointed to a tall building not far away.

"Oh, we are indeed looking for a place to stay~"

Ye Feng nodded.

He decided to stay here tonight and investigate what was going on in this town that was so full of strangeness.

"Alright, the two of you, please!"

Sang Yang pointed in a direction for Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao, and a glint of successful conspiracy flashed in the depths of his eyes.
