Ye Feng turned his head and saw many small figures moving about in the woods not far from the Adventurer's Guild.
"Goblins?"
Ye Feng frowned slightly.
"Damn it, the goblins around Shuangyu Town are getting more and more arrogant!"
"Yeah, they even dare to openly enter the town to attack humans~"
"Indeed, these guys used to hide in caves, at most they'd launch sneak attacks when it got dark~"
"The goblins around here are not normal, there must be a high-level goblin around..."
...
The adventurers in the hall started discussing noisily, but no one went out to deal with the goblins who were constantly throwing stones.
Instead, they all cast their gazes towards the counter of the Adventurer's Guild.
They had paid a fee to be able to rest here at night, and the Adventurer's Guild had to provide them with shelter!
"Lei Jian, go handle it~"
At this moment, Liu Lao Tou, who was lounging on a rattan chair, spoke.
"It's really troublesome, how many times has this happened this month, these trash goblins~"
Under everyone's gaze, a man over 1.8 meters tall with a buzz cut, who looked somewhat thin but was muscular and strong, slowly walked out. This was Lei Jian, whom Liu Lao Tou had mentioned.
"Whoosh~"
As Lei Jian reached the doorway, a stone the size of a baby's fist was thrown by a goblin, heading straight for his forehead.
But at that very moment, Lei Jian moved.
He suddenly extended his right hand, and with a "bang," he firmly caught the stone thrown by the goblin.
"Whoosh"
The buzz-cut man flicked his wrist, directly throwing the stone towards where the figures were moving.
"Quack ka~ ka~"
Several goblin screams were heard. Clearly, more than one goblin had been hit by his stone.
Then, Lei Jian took out a string of yellow-glowing gems from his backpack and slung them across his body. He then drew the large saber on his back and charged directly into the goblin horde.
"Sizzle~"
"Quack ka~ ka ka~"
"Pfft~"
...
As the yellow light flashed, the sounds of blades cutting flesh, goblin shrieks, screams, and spurting blood followed.
"Big brother, the goblins are being driven away~"
After a while, hearing no more sounds of goblins throwing things, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but say.
"Quack ka~! ......"
As soon as Xiao Xiao finished speaking, with a scream, another group of goblins rushed over.
However, halfway through their charge, a bolt of lightning split the sky, illuminating almost the entire horizon.
"Rumble~"
Following that was a deafening thunderclap.
"Quack ka~ Quack ka~! ......."
The goblins, who had been charging fiercely, were instantly scared. They dropped their weapons and fled in all directions.
But as soon as they ran, a flash of saber light appeared, and several goblins were cut into pieces. It was Lei Jian, the buzz-cut man, returning.
"Whoosh whoosh~......."
Heavy rain poured down.
Lei Jian, wielding his great saber, charged into the goblin horde like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. In no time, he had slaughtered dozens of goblins.
Afterward, Lei Jian, still holding his great saber, also walked back.
His expression was relaxed and casual, as if he was used to it...
Ye Feng stared in one direction, frowning slightly. Did he just see a goblin that was a bit different?!
"This is troubling~ These guys actually know how to lure the tiger away from its lair!~"
At this moment, Liu Lao Tou, who had been lounging on the rattan chair, stood up, walked to the doorway, and looked at the pouring rain outside with a thoughtful expression.
The adventurers, meanwhile, continued with their own affairs, with a few looking out at the dark night with solemn expressions...
...
The next day,
Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao woke up early. After breakfast, they began to head out.
Today, they were going to investigate the direction where the cart from yesterday was dragged away, to see who or what was responsible.
...
Around nine in the morning,
Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao arrived near the location where the cart had been yesterday.
Because of the heavy rain that had lasted all night, the cart was now scattered, with only one wheel and a few scattered remnants remaining.
"That direction?"
After observing, Ye Feng confirmed and was about to move forward.
"Whoosh!~ Whoosh~! Whoosh!......."
Suddenly, several sharp whistling sounds rang out.
Ye Feng's expression changed slightly, as about a dozen arrows were shot from behind them.
"Crash~!"
Ye Feng pulled Xiao Xiao to the side, and at the same time, the blade of his Tang dao flashed, instantly cutting a large chunk from a tree trunk, which they used as a shield in front of them.
"Thud thud thud~....... clang~ clang~......."
A series of arrow impacts against the wooden board followed.
"It stinks!~"
At this moment, Xiao Xiao covered his nose and mouth, pointing at the arrows stuck in the wood.
"These guys...…"
Ye Feng narrowed his eyes. The arrows shot by the goblins were coated with foul-smelling feces.
While others might think this was meant to disgust, Ye Feng believed it was definitely an attempt to increase lethality.
After all, feces contained a large number of bacteria. Once they entered a wound and circulated through the bloodstream...
"Quack ka~ Quack ka~"
At this moment, a group of goblins, armed with clubs, stones, and other weapons, charged towards Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!~"
Suddenly, another series of dense whistling sounds rang out.
However, this time it wasn't goblin arrows, but arrows shot by Ye Feng.
His targets were not the goblins charging at them, but the goblins in the distance who were reloading their bows.
"Sizzle~ Sizzle~ Sizzle~......."
"Quack ka~......."
Ye Feng's arrows, both in their construction and power, were far superior to the goblins'.
Each arrow hit a vital point such as the goblin's head or heart, with some even piercing two at once!
Within a few breaths, the dozen or so goblins who had just stealthily attacked Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao were all eliminated by Ye Feng's arrows.
"Quack ka~!"
At this moment, the group of goblins armed with clubs and stones also reached Ye Feng.
"Sizzle!~......."
Ye Feng's Tang dao swung out instantly. The three goblins at the forefront were decapitated.
"Quack ka~ Sizzle~ Clang~ !……”
After another series of sounds, the dozen or so goblins who had charged at Ye Feng were all dead.
"Big brother, there's a goblin on that tree, it's trying to escape!~"
At this moment, Xiao Xiao, who had been observing from the side, spoke up.
"Bang!~"
As soon as Xiao Xiao finished speaking, a gunshot rang out.
Naturally, Ye Feng had taken out his AK-47 and fired. The goblin, which was leaping and trying to escape in the tree, fell to the ground.
...
A distance away from where Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao were, a musket-wielding adventurer team witnessed all of this through their binoculars.
"So... so strong~!"
"In less than a minute, over 30 goblins were killed... and under a sneak attack."
"Is that an AK-47 in his hand?"
...
Immediately, the musket adventurer team exchanged glances, nodded, and walked towards Ye Feng's location.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao were unhurriedly following the goblin whose leg had been hit by the AK-47. Ye Feng had noticed that this goblin was somewhat special.
If he wasn't mistaken, this goblin had been present during the goblin attack on the Adventurer's Guild last night.
It was during the moment when lightning split the sky. He had seen it clearly: the goblin had only one ear and a large scar on its shoulder.
During last night's attack, this goblin seemed to have been observing the entire time, not participating.
Therefore, Ye Feng wanted to see where this goblin would lead them, perhaps to the goblin lair.
Ye Feng placed considerable importance on goblins. Although they looked hideous and disgusting, killing one yielded 2 usable points.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng was surprised.
Because he discovered that the direction the goblin was fleeing was the same direction where the people on the cart had been dragged away.
"You damned goblin scout, I'll kill you!"
As Ye Feng was contemplating how to deal with the goblin lair when they found it, a male voice filled with hatred suddenly rang out.
Then Ye Feng saw a white-haired old man rush out of a bush, furious, and smash the goblin's head with a hoe.
...
There were still many metal arrowheads broken and bouncing off.
