Wizard: I am a goblin

Chapter 14 Goblin Camp Ecological Guide

They're back. They've finally come back.

After finishing his business with Boss Xiong and the old shaman, Gebu retreated to his own corner in the camp.

All the goblins in their squad were dead, and the place was completely empty... Their belongings had been taken away at some point, leaving only a few stone planks used to make a bed on the ground.

"If these stones weren't so hard to move, they would have been taken long ago," Gebu thought.

He had no intention of sleeping here. This hard stone slab had never given Geb a sense of security.

Since Boss Xiong sent him out to scavenge for scraps, Gebu planned to use this opportunity to openly go out and practice, read, and meditate. The camp? No need. He wouldn't come back.

Sitting in a corner, Geb observed the operation of the entire goblin camp.

This camp has more than a hundred goblins in total. Apart from a dozen or so children, the others are all involved in the operation of the tribe.

Aside from the top two, the Bear Boss and the Old Shaman, the next class of goblins is the Warrior class. Representative figures include "Grumpy" and his henchman "Brainless." These individuals are strong and robust (for goblins), leading raiding and hunting parties, and have the right to receive an advance share of the spoils.

The next class consists of professionals, including repairmen, animal trainers, and cooks. A prime example is the "sly fox." These individuals are invariably the old shaman's confidants, exempt from hunting and robbery, enjoying a safe and stable life. Their professional skills also grant them certain privileges that set them above others. For instance, the cook can distribute food. Everyone wants to be on good terms with him.

The next level down are the cattle and horses, like the Gebu. They have to risk their lives to find food. Every day they leave camp to hunt, plunder, and gather. The more they collect, the more they receive, but it's only a small fraction of the total. Just enough to barely fill their stomachs.

Well... Boss Xiong and the old shaman allowed Gebu to go out and gather things for them on his own, so in reality, Gebu's status has risen slightly, although he is still not out of the rank of cattle and horses—a high-ranking cattle and horse.

The lowest level consists of children that produce nothing and old goblins waiting to die.

Goblins are a race that can't sit still, and this harsh reality doesn't allow them to. These hundred-odd little guys, every day as soon as they open their eyes, their little brains start working quickly, preparing what little tricks they should play that day, and how to improve their situation.

twitter.

This place is always so noisy and busy. But after a busy day, once the dust settles and things are carefully assessed, it seems that the Broken Tooth Tribe as a whole hasn't made any progress.

Everything is changing, yet nothing has changed.

Geb used his newfound mind to think that if an orderly society was like a bee colony, then a goblin tribe was like a fly swarm—everyone was running around for a mouthful of shit.

The Broken Tooth tribe's goblin camp is set up in a huge, semi-open cave beneath the rock wall. The open part of the cave is surrounded by a fence made of logs and rammed earth, leaving only a three-meter-high wooden fence gate as the only entrance and exit.

The camp was divided into four parts: the living area, the storage area, the living quarters, and the animal pen.

Well, what's called regional division is actually just a dynamic balance formed after years of infighting and backstabbing among the goblins who piled things up haphazardly and seized territory on their own.

After countless unexpected events, trials and errors, and conflicts, we finally reached this result.

The living area is located in the very center of the camp, surrounding a small square, and includes a kitchen, a handicraft workshop, a herbal workshop, the old shaman's tent, and the bear boss's large tent.

The bear's tent is located on an arched rock in the center of the cave, offering a wide view of every corner of the camp.

The old shaman's tent was located in a lower position, but it connected to the herbal workshop and wasn't far from the storage area. Behind the tent was a shady plot of land where he grew shade-loving plants such as mushrooms and moss.

These places were strictly guarded by the old shaman. If you approached them too easily, you would be beaten by the "unhappy" shaman at best, and offered as a sacrifice to Magnubiye at worst.

If Geb wants to obtain the "King Lizard's Tail" needed to make the potion, he must get past this hurdle.

Geb already had a plan—to use the wizard's hand, he could succeed tonight… but he needed to be careful with the cleanup. He couldn't let anyone find out that he was the one who had done it.

The kitchen was behind the living area. The goblins cooked once a day, using a large pot of food. No matter what they hunted that day—rats, rabbits, deer, wild boars—or what they gathered—potatoes, wild squash, carrots—they threw it all in and stewed it until it turned into a gray, bubbling, mushy liquid.

One spoonful fills your stomach, two spoonfuls prolong your life, three spoonfuls... three spoonfuls and you'll get scolded by "Sneaky Bad," little goblin, why do you get to eat so much!

He's a sly little rascal, a chubby guy who doesn't show off much. Gebu has no idea what he's thinking.

However, in a goblin tribe where everyone was skinny, he was fat and bloated.

This reminded Gebu of a certain fat person from the world before he transmigrated, was it Fat One or Fat Two?

Goblins who clash with this guy always seem to run into trouble for no apparent reason, either stepping into their own traps or accidentally provoking the bear boss and getting fed to hyenas.

Be careful of this person.

The living area, where the goblins sleep, is near the entrance but sheltered by rocks. It's well-ventilated and relatively dry here.

The storage area is located on the other side of the camp, deliberately separated from the living area. Why? Because if it were too close, the goblins would steal things.

With this setup, if anyone wanted to be clever and secretly move things from the warehouse back to their bed, they would have to cross the entire living area under everyone's watchful eyes.

The animal pen was located at the main gate, serving as a deterrent, and the scent of the giant hyenas could also scare away any wild animals that dared to approach.

The Broken Tooth Tribe's greatest assets are its fifty-odd chickens, twenty goats, ten wild boars, and four giant hyenas.

Those four giant hyenas were the bear's most prized possessions.

These ugly and ferocious creatures are beyond the control of anyone except the bear goblins. What is a playful scuffle between a bear goblin and four dogs is a life-or-death struggle for a little goblin.

For this reason, no goblin likes any work involving giant hyenas. They have huge appetites, strange tempers, and are impossible to tame or feed. If you're not careful, you'll end up being eaten as a snack.

Once, Gebu was ostracized by "Unhappy" and thrown into the animal pen to shovel poop for the giant hyenas... The mountain of poop there was taller than the goblins.

Xiao Ge was working, his brow beaded with sweat, when he heard the damp breathing of the big dog on the other side of the thin fence. His heart pounded and his legs trembled like leaves.

Thinking of this, Gebu couldn't sit still any longer and jumped up from the stone slab.

The grand plan must begin immediately! We can't waste any more time!

Gebu's legs quickly sprang into action, and he slid out of the camp.
