Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

Two big birds that were a whole head taller than Ron glared fiercely at the group of uninvited guests who came up the mountain. There was nothing on the top of the mountain except a huge bird's nest. In their view, these members composed If the messy two-legged beasts weren't coming for his home, then they were definitely coming for him.

A young giant eagle, which was smaller than Driver and was only slightly larger than Driver, hid under the broad wings of its parents. It curiously poked its head out and looked at these creatures that were completely different from the previous group of stone monsters.

"We're not here for your home!" Driver glanced at Ron, and hurriedly gestured to the giant eagle family while using animal talk to communicate with them, "We're here to hunt down a group of gargoyles! You have Haven’t you seen those monsters?”

"Have you ever seen this?!" The female eagle spread her wings angrily. It now looks almost three times as big as before. "Those monsters have taken over our home! They even want to hurt our family of three!"

"If it hadn't been for the conflict between the villages at the foot of the mountain and them just now, it would have been absolutely impossible for us to take back our homeland!"

"This is the nest we spent hundreds of days and nights making!" The eagle covered his face and nestled in the arms of his larger wife. "Look what they have done to them? My little decorations What about the food we stored for our children? They were all stolen by those robbers!”

Drayford translated the original words of the giant eagles to everyone verbatim. Although he inexplicably became a ranger, the relationship between goblin hunters and wild animals except rats and wolves is basically If the conjugated hunter and his prey were left to negotiate on their own, they would inevitably start fighting in less than a few words.

After following Ron and others for so long, Dreyfus at least still has this level of self-awareness.

"You guys noticed the conflict in the village? Very good," Ron nodded, "We were the ones who defeated those bandits. Now we hope to completely eradicate this scourge, so we tracked it here - can you tell me where they are going? ?”

"Did you defeat those stone monsters?" The young giant eagle called twice curiously, but was quickly pushed behind by its parents.

"You look very weak," the eagle questioned. "You don't seem to have sharp beaks and talons, nor strong wings!"

"Especially this goblin that talks to us, it doesn't even look like it's enough for a meal for our kids!"

"It doesn't even look like it's enough - Hey! Be careful what you say!" Driver finally couldn't help it in the middle of translating, "You are just bigger pigeons in my eyes! We can easily do it Make you a big table dish!”

"Although what he said is a bit exaggerated, I think I can prove it," Ron stretched out his hand, and the arcane light danced with his fingers, turning into realistic monster phantoms, which were based on encounters in previous adventures. The image of the monster did not have any offensive power, but it did give the three big birds enough shock.

"Feathered Bear (Owl Bear)! Big Wolf (Warg)! And Dragon (Exuri)!" The giant eagles exclaimed one after another. The female eagle took a step forward and stared at those things that she could not see. Real and fake illusions came out, "Are you a magician? In this case, you might really be able to defeat those stone monsters."

"Are they also a product of magic, your creation? Like this metal bump on your shoulder?"

"Unfortunately, they are not my creations," Ron shook his head. "When we defeated the gargoyles, they even kidnapped one of my companions - now, can you tell me where they went?"

"We don't care where they go, as long as they don't come back again!" The female eagle snorted, "But if you can kill them all, it might be a good thing."

"Well, although we don't know where those rocks flew to, we know where they came from - you guys stand over a little bit, maybe stand on the edge of our house. This will help you see more clearly?"

"Don't fall!" the young bird reminded, "If you fall and can't fly, you will fall to death!"

"Several of my older brothers and sisters were like this!"

"Actually, not really." The eagle pushed his child away with his wings with some embarrassment. "He is our first child. In order to encourage him to learn to fly as soon as possible, we told him this."

"Then I kicked it down and lied to it that it was careless," the female eagle whispered. "My boy, it is really great. It succeeded in one go. In fact, we are not sure if it really fell." Now, can we catch it in time..."

"Let's leave the common things to talk about later," Ron stood at the highest point of the entire mountain, resisting the dizziness and looking down, "Madam, can you point us in the direction?"

Looking down from here, all the ground signs seemed so small. If the giant eagle could only point them in a general direction, Ron and the others would only need ten days and a half to find the right path.

But he may have underestimated the capabilities of wild animals.

"Go down from here and see those gray woods? There are many mud monsters living in them. Find the biggest one among them. Turn towards the direction where the big fireball rises in the sky every day. Keep walking until you meet a river.”

The female eagle's sharp eyes penetrated the woods and swamps several kilometers away: "You can choose to cross the river or go along the river bank in the direction of the water flow. There, you two-legged beasts built a circle of walls with many boxes inside, storing food reserves. We first found those stone monsters there."

"Sometimes, when I don't want to, I mean when I can't catch prey, I will find some food from there," the eagle added, "It's strange that you creatures are like squirrels, hoarding so much meat, but letting it rot until it turns into bones?"

"Is your memory so bad that even if you build a wall, or even put a stone or wood on each food box, it can't stop you from forgetting the location and digging them out in time?"

Ron and others were completely confused by the eagle's words. Not to mention Ron, even the most knowledgeable Yelena and Quest couldn't remember what kind of cultural tradition would store food like the giant eagles said.

"Are they talking about a cellar?" Yelena frowned, "But I've never seen a cellar with a wall, and food has to be packed in boxes..."

"And marked with stone and wood?" Ivy grabbed her hair, "Why not write a note? Or just paint it--"

Ron saw Ivy's look after she suddenly fell silent, and he knew it would be like this.

"Thank you for your directions," Ron politely thanked the Giant Eagle family with the help of Driver's translation, "But let me remind you two, that's not a place to store food."

"In the tradition of our race, this kind of place is generally called: a cemetery..."
