After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 809

"Good job little guys," Mao said, smiling. "You really helped us out there."

The goblins gaped and they tilted their heads down a bit. Their pointed ears softened a little, and the humans reckoned it was because they were shy.

Very cute.

Mao and the others chuckled, while the other humans nearby sneered to themselves. The aborigines had always looked down on goblins and found them ugly and disgusting.

They did not understand what these people thought when they looked fondly at the critters!

These expressions and sneers were not missed by the Alterrans, of course.

The trip continued on and a few mobs were encountered, they were dealt with in a similar manner but with more ease. "Let’s work together okay?" Mao told the goblins and somehow a team of goblins would integrate into the human ones.

It was quite fun, with the humans dealing brute force while the goblins assisted and even guided where to attack.

"Weakness is under the chin, Master!"

"Lower…"

Mao watched them from the side. They had always found chances to train whenever they could and this level of mob seemed perfect. It was also a great way to build rapport with the goblins even before they entered the territories.

There were fewer and fewer mobs though, so they reckoned they were getting cleared somewhere nearby by Silva. As far as they knew, he was probably using a minor Beast Attracting potion to maximize his efficiency.

With the less enemies, the group was a little more relaxed. At least the ’guests’ were.

Some of the ’civilians’ hastened their pace in order to chat with the guards. Obviously, they were there to pry information.

"Hey, I’m curious. Where are we going?" One asked, and it so happened that it was Luis that he questioned.

"You joined us without knowing where we’re going?" the young man asked. "You must have a lot of free time."

"..."

In contrast, the goblins couldn’t help but look up. After fighting together with the humans, many goblins got a bit of courage to interact a bit more with them.

One of them was Pupu, one of the younger ones. He was born as a slave, and didn’t know anything else but digging. It also made him quite innocent. "Where are we going, Masters?"

"We’re not your masters, call us just with our names," Mao corrected. "We are going to two territories, they’ll be needing your help—both of them."

The humans (who were quite offended after being ignored) forgot their annoyance as they heard more about their destination. "You mean to say that Alterra has two villages??"

"Yes."

The newcomers narrowed their eyes and looked at each other.

A village with two satellites…

Even the Goblins were surprised. They didn’t know much about the humans, but they knew gaining satellites wasn’t easy.

Pupu, as always, couldn’t help but be curious. "What can we do for them?" he asked. "Do they have black metal too?"

This question made the civilians’ ears perk up. If there was also Black metal elsewhere nearby… then this was big news!

Unexpectedly—

"No, we only get our black metal in Iron Mountains," Mao said. "What we need you for… is to help with the Extreme Heat."

The goblins blinked and then nodded, a dawn of understanding coming to them. They knew it was coming, and they could surmise what they’d be doing.

Well, to some degree, anyway...

"They’re probably bluffing," another replied, ignoring how drenched in sweat he was from just walking. _{fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm}
