Ten meters.

Eight meters.

Five meters—"Roar!!!"

Behind the boulder on the left, two Goblin Warriors erupted simultaneously!

Their thick legs kicked off the ground with force, leaving two shallow pits in the earth as their muscular bodies lunged at Lin Feng like cannonballs!

Bronze Short Swords sliced two arcs of cold light through the grey mist, one aiming for the throat and the other for the waist!

Their coordination was seamless, and the angles were tricky!

Simultaneously, behind the boulder on the right, a third Goblin silently circled toward the side and rear of the group, its short sword aimed at—Su Yurou!

But just as it had circled three meters, it found a figure standing in front of it.

Tie Dun.

That face, full of fierce and fleshy features, looked exceptionally ferocious in the grey mist. He had already raised the ironwall greatshield to his chest, and the dozen claw marks on the shield's surface were clearly visible under the faint light.

"Kid, where do you think you're going?"

The Goblin's vertical pupils suddenly constricted.

On the main battlefield, the short swords of the two Goblins were only ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) half a meter away from Lin Feng!

Lin Feng moved.

He didn't retreat, didn't dodge, and didn't even make any large movements. He simply gripped his spear with both hands and thrust the shaft forward horizontally.

Clang!!!

The shaft of the Wildfire Spear collided with the two short swords simultaneously!

Sparks flew!

The two Goblins only felt an overwhelming, irresistible force transmit from their blades. Their webbings split, and the short swords swung out to the sides uncontrollably!

Terror flashed in their eyes; this human's strength was far greater than theirs!

But Lin Feng didn't give them time to react.

The moment the spear shaft knocked away the dual swords, he stepped forward with his right leg, twisted his waist, and the spear tip shot out like lightning—Puchi!

-170!

The spear tip pierced through the first Goblin's shoulder blade, penetrating the leather armor but not proving fatal!

The monster roared, actually intending to pull its blade and fight again!

However, Lin Feng had already anticipated its struggle.

With a flick of his wrist, the Wildfire Spear followed the momentum to press down and pull back, the spear blade slicing diagonally down from the wound—Slash!

-175!

The carotid artery on the side of its neck was severed, and grey-green blood gushed out like a fountain! The Goblin's eyes widened, and it collapsed to its knees with a thud.

The second Goblin roared and lunged, its short sword stabbing straight for Lin Feng's heart!

Lin Feng turned sideways, and the short sword grazed past his leather armor.

Simultaneously, the Wildfire Spear had already been retracted. With a backhand sweep of the shaft, it slammed heavily into the Goblin's left ribs!

Crack! -172!

The sound of bone breaking was clearly audible!

The Goblin shrieked in pain, its body thrown to the right as if struck by a charging bull, crashing into a boulder and spitting out a mouthful of blood! 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

As it struggled to crawl up, Arrow Eye's arrow had already arrived.

Puchi!

-100!

The feathered arrow pierced through its right eye and came out the back of its head!

The second Goblin was dead!

As for the third Goblin, it had only confronted Tie Dun for a few seconds before realizing something was wrong.

Because behind Tie Dun, Zhao Hu was striding forward while carrying his bone-crushing greatsword, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.

"Little brat, you chose the wrong opponent." Zhao Hu grinned savagely, raising the bone-crushing greatsword high!

The blade light slashed down! Crack! -75!

The blade edge hacked into the Goblin's shoulder blade, deep enough to see the bone! The monster howled in pain and turned, wanting to flee into the mist.

A deep blue light silently streaked out from the mist behind it.

Puchi!

-170! (Backstab! Stealth Strike!)

The deep blue fang was accurately driven into its back neck, sinking in all the way to the hilt!

The Goblin's movements froze completely, its grey-green eyes slowly bulging, and then—it crashed to the ground.

【Level Up: 12 → 13】

Shadow Snake stepped out from the mist, expressionlessly pulling out her dagger and wiping the blood on the Goblin's leather armor.

From the start of the battle to its end, less than twenty seconds had passed.

Three Level 15 Goblin Warriors, completely wiped out.

The grey mist continued to churn, but this area had fallen silent.

The corpses of the three Goblins began to slowly dissipate, turning into grey-white light particles and merging into the mist. Only a few items remained on the spot.

A piece of leather chest protection, glowing with a faint green light.

Three white energy crystals, emitting stable energy fluctuations.

There were also some miscellaneous, worthless items that dissipated along with the corpses.

Lin Feng walked over and picked up the leather chest protection.

【Goblin Warrior Breastplate (Green)】

Type: Leather Armor · Chest

Defense: +18

Constitution: +1

Equipment Requirements: Constitution ≥ 8

He glanced at the attributes and casually tossed it to Tie Dun.

"It's yours. Better than the one you're wearing."

Tie Dun caught the breastplate, looked down, and his eyes instantly widened: "Holy crap! Green quality! Constitution +1! Lord, this..."

"Put it on." Lin Feng didn't give him a chance to refuse, "There are even tougher ones coming later."

Tie Dun grinned and put it on without another word. Although the breastplate was crude, it was thick and sturdy. It felt heavy on his body, and a sense of security welled up.

"Hehe, comfortable!" He patted his chest, smiling so wide his teeth showed and his eyes narrowed.

Zhao Hu put away his bone-crushing greatsword and walked over to examine the churning grey mist around them, clicking his tongue in wonder:

"Lord, the monsters in this Rift Valley... are really different from the ones outside. That Goblin looked like a wild boar and had quite a bit of strength."

"Level 15, of course it's not small." Lin Feng pocketed the three white crystals, "If Shadow Snake hadn't discovered them in advance, it would have taken some effort."

Wang Wu put away his Black Iron Longbow and said with emotion: "The Lord is still the fiercest. If those two blades had slashed at me at the same time, I definitely would have had to dodge.

But the Lord just parried them all with one spear and killed one on the counter-attack."

Arrow Eye nodded in agreement: "The timing and angle of that spear sweep were perfect. Watching from the back, I thought it was beautiful."

After putting on the new breastplate, Tie Dun couldn't help but praise: "Lord, if you hadn't held the front, the few of us might have been wiped out by these three green-skinned monsters today! That strength of yours, tsk tsk, it's simply not human!"

Lin Feng waved his hand, interrupting everyone's compliments: "Alright, stop the flattery. Everyone is very important."

His gaze swept over everyone: Tie Dun blocked the sneak attack from behind, Arrow Eye provided long-range support, and Shadow Snake delivered the finishing blow.

"Tie Dun, you stopped the one circling behind and didn't let it touch Su Yurou. Arrow Eye, your follow-up shot was clean and decisive. Shadow Snake..."

He looked at the shadow that had already faded back into the mist, the corners of his mouth curling slightly: "Your scouting was well done, and the finish was beautiful.

Without you discovering their ambush in advance, even if we won, someone would have been injured."

Everyone followed his gaze toward the patch of grey mist. Although they couldn't see Shadow Snake, they all knew she was there.

"So," Lin Feng concluded, "the territory's strength improvement depends on everyone.

No matter how strong I am alone, I can't protect Beacon Fire Town. Understand?"

Everyone nodded one after another, their eyes filled with the excitement of being recognized.

Su Yurou stood in the center of the group, her hand holding her short staff relaxing slightly. When that Goblin circled behind earlier, she hadn't actually been too nervous.

Her main attribute was Intelligence, with Agility as a secondary. Even if a monster really got close, she could hold out until her teammates arrived by dodging a few times.

However, Tie Dun's shield had already blocked the way in front of her.

This is a team, these are companions. A faint smile curved at the corners of her mouth.
