Goblin Dependency-Chapter 228 - 127: Improvement_3

——The bounty on the Association Task Board is as high as 120 Gold Coins.

In stark contrast to the usual situation when clearing out goblins.

The ordinary loot is meager, but the task reward has become the main source of income.

Of course, according to the distribution rules of the Green Blood Team.

Xia Nan, who made an extra contribution and played a huge role in the battle, will be able to receive at least more than half of the Gold Coins after returning to River Valley Town.

Although it’s still not as good as his previous missions, it’s still a decent income.

"These gnolls, did they already fight with many adventurer teams before us? Why are they all injured?"

Abi diligently tidied up the scattered corpses on the ground, looking somewhat puzzled.

The injuries inflicted by the Green Blood Team were easy to distinguish.

Besides himself, Adeline inflicted blunt injuries with her hammer, Berg used his bow and arrows, Xia Nan only beheaded.

Apart from those, the other wounds on the gnoll corpses were already there before the battle began, unrelated to them.

Hearing this, Xia Nan also found it strange.

He had already noticed earlier.

These gnolls had significant burn injuries, as if they had been swept by flames.

The fur on the backs of a few was almost completely burned off, leaving only charred black marks.

The injuries were not light.

The strength of the gnoll elite individual "Carnivore" was noticeably diminished, allowing Xia Nan, who had upgraded [Teeth Hunting] to Level 3, to take him down easily.

"Could it be... left by the Iron Hand team?"

Xia Nan became more convinced of his previous suspicion.

After all, the opposing team’s strength was quite good, even excluding his temporary involvement, overall stronger than the Green Blood Team.

Even when facing a gnoll ambush, they couldn’t have been completely defenseless.

Even Captain George was captured and tortured, so the gnolls must have paid a certain price.

As for the peculiar burn marks on the gnolls...

It’s unlikely that they were left by any spellcasters—they’re just low-level adventurer teams, unlikely to have a spellcasting teammate.

But "Kerosene Bombs" and the like are sold in city shops.

He currently has three in his pocket.

Nothing surprising.

"Hurry up, tidy up the corpses, we need to find another place to camp in the dark."

It’s currently the most dangerous late night in the forest, many night-active demons are on the move. novelbuddy-cσ๓

Gnolls have no concept of bathing, their stench can be smelled from tens of meters away, and combined with the current bloody smell, it’s likely to attract nearby predators.

For safety’s sake, the Green Blood Team certainly couldn’t stay in the original place.

Luckily, Adeline’s rich adventure experience had considered this before setting up camp, memorizing several alternative camping spots in advance.

The terrain is suitable.

Now, they only need to slightly process the corpses, pack up their belongings, and leave without extinguishing the campfire.

The journey would take dozens of minutes, still with potential danger, but obviously much safer than arbitrarily finding a camping spot in the dense forest.

Not wasting even a second.

After the battle, Adeline only bandaged a few urgently needing treatment wounds on her body and immediately joined the task of cleaning up the battlefield.

And only then did she have a chance to closely observe the gnoll corpses at her feet, which almost left the whole team in the forest, but now lay motionless on the ground.

"Decapitated, decapitated, and decapitated again..."

The iron-gray sheen of the sword flashed by, as Xia Nan removed a strip of attached flesh from the sword’s surface beside him.

Adeline couldn’t help but murmur inwardly.

Feeling whether he has some strange hobby.

It seemed normal.

After all, the pressure in this line of work is enormous, and adventurers who stayed in River Valley Town for so long had some mental issues.

Compared to drinking and gambling... being enthusiastic about "decapitation" isn’t really a problem.

While cleaning, she saw the riddled corpse of "Carnivore" again.

Her mind couldn’t help but recall the phantom wolf formed by air and grass clippings that just whizzed past.

Adeline for the first time felt her judgment might have been wrong.

Subconsciously raising her head, she glanced over at Xia Nan.

Her gaze scrutinized him.

"This kid..."

"Really hasn’t obtained a Professional Level yet?"
