But it was particularly noticeable in this quiet cave.
She did not go into the cave, but called softly from outside;
"I am a cat-eared member of the Tanga tribe, and I have come to rescue you."
The goblins outside are dead. Come out and come with us.
"what……?"
Inside the cave, a woman uttered a sound of disbelief.
The other person controlled the volume: "You said... the goblins outside are dead?"
"Yes, we killed it to get you out of here!" Arya's voice was somewhat excited; the other party had actually responded to her!
"No...no...why us?!" The woman in the cave cried out in fear.
Arya was also taken aback.
Before she could even speak, the woman continued in a trembling voice;
"The goblins outside are dead, and our whole family will be killed by them! Why us?!" she cried out in grief and anger.
"No! You can run away now! The goblins won't hurt you anymore!" Arya quickly explained.
“No…№!∑‖杷″〓兒#≮3三』lin“wu刺猬摺∨∈代》∥购:…Don’t do this! My husband is already dead! Do you want me and my child to die out there?!”
"If the goblins come and find out we're trying to escape, they'll definitely kill us!" The woman's voice trembled with a sob.
There were also the sounds of children sobbing softly, clearly afraid to cry out loud.
They seemed to have fallen into a mental dead end; to run away meant they would be killed by the goblins.
Goblins were like their nightmare, constantly reminding them that running away meant certain death.
Because countless orcs have already died in their resistance and escape.
They're actually safer staying where they are now.
The female orc even considered whether she should make a sound to lure the goblin over and hand him over to the goblin, in which case she might even gain some benefits.
"It's alright! We have help! There are people waiting for us outside; they hate goblins just like us."
I've seen it. They killed so many goblins that the goblins piled up like a mountain. One of them could take on a whole group of goblins by himself!
"Don't worry, you won't die," Arya tried her best to explain.
"You're lying!" the female orc roared.
Chapter 53 My Mom's Gone?! (4k)
They have been living in this dirty, chaotic, and oppressive environment for far too long, being dominated and imprisoned.
Unlike male orcs who can occasionally go out hunting, female orcs can only stay in caves, unable to see anything outside, as if even their souls are locked there.
Especially after some female orcs lost their mates, Liu developed serious mental problems.
The invisible shackles that already bound them became even stronger after experiencing the loss of a spouse.
Running away will kill them, kill her and her children.
As long as they are in this forest, they will have nowhere to hide; the goblins will surely catch up with them and kill them.
Staying here is actually the safest decision to save your own life and the lives of your children.
The fact that the female orc didn't immediately shout to attract the attention of the other goblins suggests she was already confused.
She was just scared, but she still had a conscience.
If she remained silent and the goblins discovered her, she and her child could be killed.
But if they make a sound, the person who came to save them will die.
In fact, she did not make a choice; it was not a choice between giving up a stranger and herself and her family.
She's just hesitating because the problem still exists.
It's as if the problem will be solved if it's delayed.
Arya returned to the exit where Miluko was with a serious expression and sighed, "They don't want to come with us... If word gets out, the goblins will kill us."
No matter how hard Arya tried to explain that there was no danger outside, they refused to believe her.
Going out will inevitably involve risks, but staying here is definitely the right thing to do.

Sword Hero: Okay.
guessed.
In fact, the orcs who went back made it clear that they didn't know how to help the humans.
Because they knew what kind of imprisonment they would face upon returning, they knew that staying in the cage was of no use.
They have no way to resist, don't know how to resist, and can hardly even muster the thought of resisting.
They were shrouded in despair.
But what needs to be done now...
It's about saving these orcs from despair!
[Sword Hero: Aria's negotiations have never worked; relying on her is useless. What's the situation on the ground? How many orcs are there?]
Milu asked Aria, "How many orcs are inside?"
“Four, one woman, three children,” Arya replied.
Milu also relayed the information to An Yi.
Sword Hero: Are there only women and no men?
Hero of the Thorns: Yes.
Sword Hero: Alright, don't let them make a sound. Just take them back to the cave; someone will meet you at the entrance.
When Aria saw Milu turn to look at her, she asked softly, "What did An'i say?"
Miluko: "Take people away."
Arya: "Huh?"
Miluko: "Take him away directly."
……
Inside the cave, the haggard female orc held three emaciated children, her head bowed, praying that they wouldn't be killed if the goblins found them.
They were all dressed in very rudimentary clothing made of animal hides, barely enough to cover their sensitive areas. (∝÷『(∮●))
Moreover, because there were no facilities for bathing or washing clothes, their bodies and clothes emitted a strange smell.
In fact, there was not only one woman and three children in the cave, but also a slightly older boy orc.
He stood to the side of the cave entrance, watching the outside warily.
His father was gone and never returned. He was the eldest child in the family, and he had to take care of his mother and younger siblings.
He had also heard what Arya had said, but in his opinion, she was just talking to herself.
He had seen many people's fates when they ran away from home since he was a child.
If any orcs manage to escape, they will be captured by the goblins, taken to the plaza, and made to watch as their entire family is tortured to death.
The boy didn't want his family to suffer the same fate.
"It seems they've already left."
Not hearing any response from the other party, the boy whispered.
"……Um?"
Not hearing a response from his mother, the orc boy turned around in confusion.
"Um?!"
The four people who were originally cuddling together on the straw-covered bed have all disappeared!
"mom?!"
The boy was completely stunned and rushed to the bedside, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.
They were just here a moment ago, how did they suddenly disappear?
"mom?"
The boy turned over the straw.
"Mom?" Qi
He went to another bedroom and rummaged through the straw.
"Mom??"
They walked to the last chamber and removed the animal skin covering the toilet.
"mom?!!"
My mom's gone?!
Where are my younger siblings?! They've all disappeared?!
The boy was momentarily confused, not knowing what had happened.
The four of them were just in bed!
How could it disappear in the blink of an eye?!
The orc boy returned to his original cave and looked at the rumpled straw on the ground, feeling somewhat lost and even wanting to cry.
He preferred to believe that the four people had abandoned him and run away rather than believe that they had simply vanished into thin air.
"Didn't they say there were only four...?"
Just then, a female voice he had just heard muttered in a language he couldn't understand.
"Hmm?" The orc boy looked up.
