"A trap?"
Ye Feng frowned slightly, crouched down, and pushed aside some fallen leaves, revealing many pointed wooden stakes underneath.
"This goblin scout might have come to scout the area... No, it's a goblin wolf rider!"
At this moment, Alak, who was observing the surroundings from a goblin tree branch, spoke up.
"Awoo~"
"Awoo!~"
As Alak's voice faded, several wolf howls could be heard from not too far ahead.
"Hehehe!~ Awoo!~"
Following that, the dense sound of running and wolf howls came from the jungle ahead.
In a short while, a dozen or so black wolves, over a meter tall, with blood-red eyes and fierce expressions, appeared before Ye Feng and the others.
On each black wolf sat a small, green-skinned goblin with a repulsive appearance and sharp teeth.
"Quack-!"
One of the goblins let out a strange cry and pointed its club towards Ye Feng and the others.
"Awoo~ Awoo!"
"Awoo~"
"Quack-!~"
...
Instantly, the pack of fierce black wolves and goblins rushed towards Ye Feng and his companions, letting out strange cries.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!~"
A series of whistling sounds echoed as Ye Feng threw a large handful of pebbles at the charging goblin wolf riders.
"Sizzle~ Quack-~"
"Bang~ Bang~"
"Hiss~ Awoo~"
...
The fierce and menacing goblin wolf riders screamed continuously, blood splattering from their bodies as they fell to the ground, lifeless in no time.
Ye Feng smiled as he watched the available points increase in the [Personal Information] panel in his mind.
"Uh... Ye Feng, are you alright?"
Xiao Lu, seeing Ye Feng standing there grinning after killing the goblins, looked a bit frightening under the dim light of the primeval forest. She walked to Ye Feng's side with some concern.
"Uh, I'm fine~"
Ye Feng snapped back to reality, waved his hand, and climbed a large tree to observe his surroundings.
"Here, everyone spray yourselves with this liquid made from tree sap, grass juice, and animal saliva,"
"This will confuse our scent, preventing us from being tracked by other wolf riders or goblin scouts!"
At this moment, Alak spoke to the group.
"Pfft~"
"Pfft pfft~"
After a series of spraying sounds, Ye Feng and his group set off again.
Not long after Ye Feng and the others left, wolf howls could be heard from their previous location...
...
Around three in the afternoon,
"Is Ye Feng going to be okay?"
Xiao Lu, while gnawing on a piece of bread, looked worriedly at the unusually dense primeval forest behind them, which had been silent for a while.
As they were about to leave the primeval forest, Ye Feng discovered a signal trap, used to alert nearby goblins.
So, Ye Feng asked Yuan Ling, Xiao Xiao, and the others to continue forward, find a place to rest, have lunch, and replenish their energy. He would stay behind to trigger the signal trap, intending to lure and kill the nearby goblins...
"Don't worry, big brother is very powerful!"
Xiao Xiao, who was biting into a braised chicken leg, waved her hand, clearly having great confidence in Ye Feng.
"Ya ya ya~"
At this moment, a flock of birds flew out in alarm from the direction of the primeval forest.
Unconsciously, Xiao Xiao, Yuan Ling, Xiao Lu, and Alak all turned their heads towards the primeval forest. Xiao Lu even swallowed the bread in her hand hastily, gripping her bow tightly, and on high alert.
Soon, a figure appeared rapidly in the field of vision of Xiao Xiao and the others – it was Ye Feng.
"Hoo!~"
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"All thirty or so goblins have been dealt with!"
Ye Feng was in a very good mood, as he had gained a lot of available points again.
"Come, everyone collect the food wrappers and food scraps. I'll use this little guy to lure away any goblins that might be tracking us!"
Just then, He Shang, who had gone out to scout, returned, holding a gray animal in his hands.
"A rabbit?"
Ye Feng looked at He Shang with some confusion.
"This is a timid rabbit. It's very agile, runs extremely fast, and is easily startled. It will run far away at the slightest disturbance."
"I just happened to catch it!"
"We'll put the food scraps and wrappers on this little guy and let it lure away any goblins that might be tracking us!"
After speaking, He Shang began to tie the collected food wrappers and scraps onto the timid rabbit.
"This little guy doesn't seem that timid!"
Ye Feng observed the timid rabbit in He Shang's hands up close for a while and found that it was not afraid of strangers at all. It stared straight at Ye Feng, and with its plump, somewhat clumsy body, it looked quite cute.
Ye Feng petted its paw. Instead of shrinking back in fear, it even pawed back at Ye Feng's hand, which was very endearing.
He Shang worked quickly, and in no time, he had tied the food wrappers and scraps onto the timid rabbit, adjusting their position so as not to hinder its movement.
"He Shang, is this little guy really reliable..."
"Whoosh! Hoo!~"
Before Ye Feng could finish speaking, the timid rabbit, which He Shang had placed on the ground, shot off like a bolt of lightning into the dense forest, disappearing in the blink of an eye...
"My word... It really... really knows how to pretend..."
Ye Feng's mouth twitched slightly.
However, Ye Feng could understand; after all, it had to survive in this goblin kingdom...
Next, Ye Feng and his group rested briefly before continuing on their way.
"Sizzle~ Whoosh!"
"Quack-!~"
"Bang bang!~ Crackle~"
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh~"
...
As Ye Feng and his group passed by, goblin corpses lay scattered along the way. Most of them were killed by Ye Feng, with a few by Xiao Lu and the others.
...
Evening,
The sun was setting.
"It's about time. Let's find a place to rest!"
Alak surveyed the surroundings and spoke.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Before Alak could finish speaking, two sharp whistling sounds pierced the air. Two arrows shot out from the bushes ahead.
"Goblin archers!"
Xiao Lu said, already drawing her bowstring, but there was no arrow.
"What's going on? Shooting arrows without arrows, just by drawing the bow?"
While Ye Feng was puzzled, the air around Xiao Lu's drawing hand rippled. The taut bowstring instantly twanged, releasing the arrow.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!~"
To Ye Feng's surprise, the moment Xiao Lu made the shooting motion, phantom-like arrow ripples appeared in the air, shooting towards the goblin archers ahead.
"This... Wind Attribute Arcane Energy!"
Ye Feng was somewhat surprised by the fluctuations emanating from the arrow-like ripples.
"Whoosh! Swoosh swoosh!"
"Zing zing zing!~"
"Sizzle~ Sizzle!~"
"Plop~ Plop~..."
...
After a series of sharp whistles, a group of goblin archers ahead all fell dead to the ground.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng frowned, as he smelled the scent of tobacco.
...
