The three goblin priests exchanged glances and each let out a cold snort.
“Hide the offerings first, let’s go out and see what’s happening,”
“Agreed,”
“Hmph!”
They stuffed the Divine Blood Crystal behind the statue and, under the guidance of an injured goblin, made their way outside the temple.
...
It was already late at night, with a silver moon hanging in the sky like a jade plate, but the goblins on the ground had no mood for appreciation.
At this very moment, Feilengcui had turned into chaos.
Firelight and shouts filled every corner, making the already chaotic Feilengcui Ruins even more tumultuous under the deep night.
When the three goblin priests arrived outside the temple, they finally laid eyes on the so-called “devils.”
Goblins didn’t have good eyesight, especially at night. They couldn’t clearly see the appearance of the invaders, but they did see their eyes, glowing eerily in the darkness.
Unlike goblins, the elves of Segis Continent had night vision. Their sight was hardly affected at night, much like the nocturnal animals on Blue Planet. And their eyes, reflecting the silver moonlight, shone like lanterns in the dark.
Coupled with the ferocious, greedy, and cold expressions in their eyes, and their cheers and grins while slaughtering goblins, they did resemble the devils from stories.
“What kind of monsters are these?”
The three goblin priests felt a chill down their spines.
One of them shivered slightly and, mustering courage, began to chant, casting a Lighting Divine Skill.
Under the brilliant Holy Light, a large area was illuminated, and the silhouettes of the intruders were etched into the goblins’ eyes entirely.
“Elves?!”
Seeing their grim and excited faces, the curved blades, bows, and even ragged clothes hung upon them, their bodies almost dyed red with blood, the three goblins exclaimed simultaneously.
No… were they really elves?
Elves were known as peace-loving creatures. Even during the most difficult times for their race, they only drove goblins away and never slaughtered them!
But these beings…
At just a glance, the priests saw something in them that definitely didn’t belong to elves…
Greed, coldness, ruthlessness…
They looked at the goblins as if they were prey.
They killed for the sake of killing, feeling excited about it.
They even ignored their injuries for the hunt, as if they weren’t wounded at all.
Not only that, whenever they killed a goblin, they took all its belongings, even if it was just a moldy stick or tattered garment…
In the name of the Winter and Hunting God! Were these devils disguised as elves that escaped from Hell?!
All three goblin priests were horrified.
Meanwhile, when the goblin priests used the Lighting Divine Skill, their figures were also seen by the elves.
In an instant, all the elves brightened up, their eyes resembling monstrous beasts, sending chills to the goblin priests’ hearts.
“Priests! They’re goblin priests!”
“Fifty contribution points each! Five hundred for a solo kill!”
“Get out of the way! Our team spotted them first!”
“Kill them!”
“They must have good stuff on them!”
The elfish voices grew more excited, bickering and shouting like a tidal wave crashing towards the three goblins.
The goblin priests shivered and felt the black-iron-level energy fluctuation around them, and instantly grew the urge to retreat…
“Retreat… retreat… back to the temple!”
Without a moment’s hesitation, they turned and ran.
“Entangle—!”
But before they could take two steps, a calm voice sounded. With the ripple of magic power, several vine thick as a wrist suddenly broke through the ground, winding towards them.
The three goblin priests were terrified.
They tried to dodge, but one of them was still caught by the vines.
“Well done, Brother Mu!”
The surrounding elves cheered.
The entangled goblin priest was terrified. Ignoring everything else, it began chanting spells desperately. However, just as it began to chant, a nameless sense of heart palpitations surged through it.
*p>*Danger…*
*There’s danger!*
Suddenly, there was a flash of cold light.
It felt like a breeze suddenly blew past behind it, and then it knew nothing.
Its head flew into the air, blood splattering everywhere.
Meanwhile, an elf wielding a curved blade slowly revealed himself behind its corpse.
He was entirely hidden in the darkness, expression indifferent, silent like a mute killer.
“Whoa! One strike kill.”
“Headshot! Boxed Meal Boss, you’re impressive!”
“Are hunters really this strong…?”
The surrounding elves let out exclamations.
*There were even assassins?!*
The two fleeing goblin priests looked back, scared into an even faster escape.
They split paths, running to the left and right towards the temple.
*Escape…*
*We must escape into the temple!*
*Only by entering the temple do we have a slim chance of survival!*
Seeing the two priests seizing their chance to flee into the distance, all the elves exploded:
“We can’t let them escape!”
“Long-range magic! Long-range magic!”
“Boom…”
“Boom…”

With massive magical fluctuations, Fireballs exploded behind them, Wind Blades lifted stone debris…
However, the elves didn’t seem very proficient, as their accuracy in long-range attacks was quite poor.
At this moment, the goblin priest running on the left heard the shouts of those devilish elves again:
“Little Xian Miao! Don’t cast recklessly, aim to the right!”
“Aim properly, hit the one on the right!”
Right?
The fleeing goblin priest glanced at its companion on the right, feeling slightly relieved.
But the goblin on the right was nearly scared out of its wits.
Before the priest on the left could relax, a massive Fireball struck it, engulfing it with a thunderous roar…
“Haha, that was accurate!”
“Well done, Little Xian Miao!”
A cheer echoed from the elves behind.
In the last conscious second of the goblin priest, only one grievance lingered:
*Weren’t they supposed to hit the right one?*
Witnessing the deaths of its two companions, the last goblin priest ran even faster, casting all the divine arts it could muster onto itself!
Thanks to the sacrifice of its two companions, it finally broke free and reached the temple.
Without any hesitation, the goblin priest stumbled to flee before the statue, fumbling to pull out the hidden Divine Blood Crystal, trembling as it began to set up the ritual, suppressing its inner fear to start praying:
“Praise… praise Winter, and Hunting, great True God, your servant… your servant needs your help!”
As soon as the words fell, a faint glow began to gather on the statue!
