Even though they had decided to relocate, their goal was just to avoid that Beastman tribe.
Since they had achieved their goal, there was no need to continue onwards.
However, before that, Chen Heng wanted to send some Kobolds to scout out the surroundings and find out about any possible dangers.
From the situation just then, it seemed that there were also Beastmen in this region.
However, they were not a tribe and just scattered Beastmen.
Now, they needed to decide on a specific place to settle down in.
Based on Kobold habits, they normally resided near mountains.
Even though Kobolds' bodies were not big, they were very talented in digging and mining.
As such, they normally chose to create dens near mountains.
However, Chen Heng did not make such a decision.
In terms of safety, residing near a mountain would not have been bad, but in terms of becoming stronger, that would not be great.
