Episode 28

As simple as we go in, that's how easy we got out. The whole assault and subjugations only took 1 hour to finish, with only 20 soldier's we managed to take down the bandit band with a size of 150 men. General Bina was able to rescue 80 female slaves amongst the 80, 60 was badly wounded ( critical but not life-threatening), 20 of them were severely malnourished. Major Colleen squads have striped the whole base bare, amassing a fortune of 100 000 gold coins, 300 000 silver, and 50 000 bronze coins, 1500 magical instrument (Armour, weapons, and accessories). 2 tons worth of gold and silver products (Trinkets, utensils, etc.), 10 platinum worth of various valuables and stocks (Foods materials, alcohol products, Skill tomes, Books, monsters material and monster cores).

We also managed to detained and disabled 15 of the high bounty bandits member alive, this includes Wide storm bandits leader Mongadee Lopus who's bounty stood at 10 platinum coins. Since we don't have secure magical shackles or similar instruments, I've decided to broke their limbs before bounding their hands and legs with wooden stocks, stuff their mouths and use black cloths sacks of covers their heads. Needless to say that these 15 guys were safe and secured, on the back of the lorries.

"Sir, all the Captives and detainee already up and ready to move…". (General Bina)

"Good, we still need a few more minutes to load up all the spoils...looks, like we need to revise our personnel line up for the next missions..".

"I agreed, it took us a lot of time to managed the loots...this could be shortened if we had enough Dimensional storage items with us…". (General Bina)

Bina also realized these problems, I don't really expect the loots to be this enormous.

"We can't really do much with that, I heard that dimensional storage items were quite expensive and hard to get...I will look at that later, in the meantime, our solutions for this are only using the help of more manpower…".

Both of us could only nod in agreements, as this was the only solution to this problem for now. Unlike in the novels, every magically infused item was hard to obtained, especially the dimensional Storage tools though you may found them here and there, most of them were relics from the ancient times, even if there's a newly made the prices were overly expensive and usually the making manuals were kept as secrets by the maker.

"Sir, Madam General…all the loots already on board, we're ready to move now..". (Major colleen)

Colleen comes to both us after she and her team set fires on the bandit base.

"Great, All on board!!…Let's Leave this place!!…".

Everyone gets on their Lorry with their own team, I was seating in the van which is on the lead, Bina was on boards the Bandits detainee lorry who situated in the middle of the caravan, then the 2 captives lorry, and last Major colleen on the last lorry with the loots. Moving at 30kmph was actually the fastest speed we can travel, considering our transportation vehicles (Commercial small lorries and normal transit van ) and dirt roads.

[That's one down 9 more to go, sir…]. (T.A.S)

"(I guess so…quite a haul, we got…..still I need to buy more reliable vehicles than this…using a commercial vehicle for heavy operations like this...wasting more gas and time than It supposed to…)".

[I agreed…I suggest buying a few militaries issued transportations would be appropriate.…]. (T.A.S)

Looks like I need to contact Lee Han Na much earlier than I have planned. It's been a long time since I last visited an Asian country, should be fun right.

"Sir, we got some movement up front….". (Cpt. Alouis)

As soon as Alouis said that, I broke from my pondering and look at the Mini Map. I saw about 15 red dots and 2 green dots coming in closer to us, I took a binocular and switch them to a night vision.

"Small battle ahead….a bunch of goblins attacking 2 goblins?…cannibalism?…wait…something not right..".

In my sight, I saw a bunch of ugly green-skinned midgets was assaulting 2 blue-skinned goblins. Unlike the rest of the goblins, the 2 blue goblins were wearing clothes and holding a small round shield and a melee weapons.

"Hey, you guys…..have you ever heard of blue-skinned goblins?..".

"A blue goblins??….we never seen one Sir..areisn't all goblins the same?….". (Cpt Alouis)

Even the soldiers were confused by what I said, this looks quite interesting thou, I always heard that goblins were savage monsters and all of the were green-skinned. But these 2 were blue, and by their movement and conduct, they at least have the same intellectual as any human.

"Stop the vehicles, no one leaves their post and stay alert..I'm gonna see that goblins for a second…".

After the convoy coming closer to the fight, I stopped the convoy and step out from the van. With P26 on my hand I walking towards the battle with a steady pace, as I was about 20 meter from them, the goblins finally noticed me.

"GIIIGGGIIIIIGAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!..".(Goblins)

Like an animal, all the green-skinned goblins start to shouts and screams at each other, as they were beckoning one and another that I was closing in on them.

As I cast [identify] on the 2 blue-skinned goblins, an unexpected status comes up, looks like I encountered twin brothers, and they were older than me.

"(Brother!...Human!!…Let's run!...GAHH!!)..". (Bob)

Amidst of shielding himself from the spear attack of the green-skinned goblins, the younger brother Bob, shouts to his brother who in the middle of hacking his opponents, but as he turned his attention waiting for his brother replies, another Goblins stab it's spear towards his torso, impaling him on the left waist.

"(Bob!!…HHUUAARRHHH!!!!…Turtle Shield..!!)". (Bar)

Seeing his brother kneeling on the ground, Bar turned berserk, he swung his Hatchet decapitated a goblin in front of him. Backing up towards his brother, Bar cast a defensive spell after hacking the goblin spear into two, a small dome of transparent green membrane covers the two of them.

"GAAGAGAGAGAGIGIGIGIGIIIIII!!!!!".(Goblins)

The appearance of a small transparent dome with a hexagonal pattern around it frustrated the goblins. Loud screech signaling the goblins has gone furious and frustrated. They tried to bash their way in, but only dull sound can only be heard as their weapons were reflected after each strike.

[That's a rare pair over there….Pure blooded Goblins from the ancient race and they still retained their humane mentality….].(T.A.S)

"(Quite interesting right…look, the other goblins were savage, just like the other monster and those 2 weren't.....they were quite talented as well…)".

[i suggest saving both of them…they could be an asset for I.S.O.A…Careful sir, the goblins have turned their attention at you..]. (T.A.S)

As T.A.S said, frustrated by the pair in the globe. Some of the goblins turned their attentions to me, they started to scream and lunges towards me.

"Do I look like a pushover to you?….BBUUKKK!!!!…".

"GGAAHH!!…..CCRRAAACKKKKK!!!…BOOMMM!!!!…". (Goblins)

No chance whatsoever, with full power low kick that lands on the goblins face, the goblin that lunges towards me was sent hurling towards another goblin behind it and plastered themselves on the duo protective dome.

<BAANGG!!..BAANNGG!!…BBUUUKKK!!…>.

For 2 minutes, gunshots and crackling sound of bones breaking filled the area. All that left was bodies of dead goblins, me and the duo brother who shivering in fear inside their protective dome.

"Are you going to come out from the dome or you want me to break them?…".

Wiping myself of the blood of goblins, I look at the duo.

"Cpt Alouis, what? Going on??..where's Mr. President??..". (General Bina)

Bina who still in the convoy, anxious as she heard gunshots.

"Mr. President told us to stay…he's killing a pack of goblin upfront…and now he's talking to a blue goblin..". (Cpt. Alouis)

With her eyes glued to the binocular observing the whole ordeal, Alouis report everything to her general.

"huh?…what??..". (General Bina).

"Uhhhhh….General, Mr. President just come back with 2 blue goblins…". (Cpt. Alouis)

The whole convoy was baffled seeing their president normally walking back to the van with 2 blue goblins on each hand. he throws the 2 on the back and rode the van like nothing ever happened, and the convoy starts moving again.
