Goblin Dependency-Chapter 193 - 115 Moonstone_2
Chapter 193: Chapter 115 Moonstone_2
Again, three sharp and abrupt wails echoed.
Only then did those low-intelligence green-skinned creatures finally realize they were under attack.
"Squeak," they cried repeatedly, each searching for a weapon.
"Charge!"
Adeline shouted fiercely, already wielding her iron hammer, and was the first to rush forward.
The blood boiled, and Abi seemed to temporarily forget his fear, roaring forward like a Beastman.
Of course, Xia Nan would not falter at this moment, taking a few quick steps forward to fill the last gap.
The battle plan had already been agreed upon before entering the forest.
As the captain, Adeline took over the newcomer’s position once the battle truly started, standing at the forefront of the team without hesitation.
She was not obsessed with killing instantly; driven by muscles stronger than those of an adult male, her heavy metal hammer often just smashed down once, and the goblins before her were like toys in the hands of a child, either sent flying or smashed to the ground, gasping more out than in, losing combat ability.
Abi, obviously lacking combat experience, had his previously learned routines scattered by the surging adrenaline.
He held an Ironwood Shield before him, his head ducked behind, and swung a One Handed Sword wildly.
Surprisingly enough, it worked.
The goblins, already small and hunched over, barely reached an adult’s waist.
With the shield thrust forward, it blocked about eighty percent of the attacks coming from the front.
With his height and long legs, even the One Handed Sword’s attack range far exceeded those short goblin arms.
Unable to break through the defense or close the distance, while on the side stood a ferocious fighter with dual hammers, unable to flank them.
For a time, Abi even held off goblins on one side successfully.
Berg stood more towards the middle back of the formation.
Displaying his "old fox" nature, he observed the whole field with a Longbow in hand.
Whenever a goblin slipped through or a teammate got surrounded and struggled, his arrows would whistle through the air to aid his companions.
As for Xia Nan...
No need for further comment.
Once the fight started, he entered his comfort zone.
The Wooden Sword was sheathed, and the Beheading Longsword swung horizontally, turning a line of goblins into fragments of shattered limbs amidst guts and gore.
Unlike before, fighting solo, having teammates to ease the pressure made it much easier.
He even had the spare focus to check if others needed support.
The four-person formation appeared wobbly yet extremely stable.
Over twenty goblins were quickly cleared within a few minutes.
Xia Nan didn’t even find a suitable chance to use [Teeth Hunting] to raise his Skill Level before those green-skinned goblins were almost all gone.
"Slash."
With a sound, he withdrew the Beheading Longsword from the chest of the last goblin on the field.
Slightly exasperated in his heart.
This time it’s just unlucky; for future missions, I need to seize more opportunities to use [Teeth Hunting].
Otherwise, these goblins, scared out of their wits, only know how to flee, having no value for training.
With the battle concluded, it was naturally time to clean up the battlefield.
With his rich experience, Berg led Abi to search the cave for any extra loot.
Meanwhile, Xia Nan and Adeline cut off the ears of deceased goblins to exchange for bounties upon their return to town.
"Boom!"
The metal hammer, its surface dripping with viscous blood, suddenly smashed down!
On the ground, the goblin, severed at the waist and barely breathing, had its round head burst open like an eggshell.
The red and white mixture of blood and cerebrospinal fluid splattered on the Scale Armor, even dotting Adeline’s cheeks.
Yet Adeline didn’t even blink.
She cut off the left ear, then smashed the head.
Cut, smash...
Even for those already dead, their bodies no longer twitching, she still gave a serious finishing blow.
It was as if only by personally feeling the resistant snap of the skull through the hammer handle could she truly confirm the goblin’s death.
Xia Nan stood aside, watching the figure drenched in green blood, her short hair dyed red from the blood.
He couldn’t help but recall how other adventurers referred to her:
— "Green Blood" Adeline.
"Found it!"
A voice filled with excitement and thrill suddenly sounded in the cave.
Abi abruptly straightened up, his face still flushed from the fight.
He held up his right hand high.
And between his fingers, stained with filth, he clutched a fingernail-sized, semi-transparent small stone emitting a faint blue glow.
