Goblins, imps, goblins, this group has many names, and compared to their civilized brethren, uncivilized goblins can be said to be cancer cells in this world. It can mate with females of all species of Homo sapiens. It has a short gestation period and multiple births at a time. It has the ability to carry on the family line in less than a year of growth. Of course, its lifespan is not long. Not creative, but knows how to loot and use tools, including weapons. Some experienced goblin shamans or elders are no less cunning than humans.
Before Lin traveled through time, he had read an online gossip article, using the growth period and reproduction ability to discuss the reasons why elves and dwarves would definitely be replaced by humans if they existed in reality. According to its discussion, the goblins of this world are definitely the protagonists of the next era, replacing the humans of this world.
Most individuals are not powerful, but can be troublesome to hunt. If left alone, it will cause considerable harassment to sparse human settlements, and even cause loss of life and property. For powerful adventurers, uncivilized goblins are the last enemies they want to encounter. It's a lot of trouble to kill, and there's not much reward.
However, this kind of opponent is the enemy that these three masters and disciples encounter most often. With their abilities, they can crush the opponent as long as they are careful not to cause any accidents. This is also a bad habit that Lin Cong brought from before time travel. When playing games, he would rather activate the cheat code. If he cannot activate the cheat code, he still has to practice to the full level, then he can crush all opponents happily, and then slowly enjoy the story. I also don’t like to play with heartbeat, press the bottom line, and kill monsters until the last drop of blood. Because the latter capsizes too easily, the story must be rerun from the record point. Once or twice is fine, but it will be very annoying if it happens several times.
After coming to this world, he only had one life, but there was no record point, so all his actions were even more conservative. Goblins are the easiest commission to receive, because few people are willing to fight them, and they multiply quickly, so there are a lot of them.
Now that we encounter him, it goes without saying, just kill him. Uncivilized goblins are definitely unwelcome and bad tenants.
The clay doll who was the first to ascend to the second floor started a fierce confrontation with the goblins at one end of the passage. The short stature looks extra flexible in a narrow space. Compared to the goblins jumping up and down, the clay puppets just swing their heavy arms and smash down hard. You may not be able to get close to these nimble little monsters even if you swing them three or five times, but if you touch them once, you will still be crippled even if you don't die.
Compared to the clay dolls who were already engaged in a fierce battle, the two people still standing on the spiral staircase were calmer. Lin struck the ground twice with his left cane and chanted: "Bright light!" The magic illuminated the first floor. Having been prepared in advance, he quickly adapted to the sudden light and saw every corner clearly. In most of the dungeon exploration, the attacks that bring down the team come from behind. Even if it is clear that there is no ambush on the first floor, the sudden light can occasionally explode one or two hidden monsters. But this time, the backside was clean.
Halumi also did not rush to the second floor immediately. Instead, she held the dagger tightly in both hands and held it flat in front of her chest, staring at the gap between the first and second floors.
The goblin at the other end of the passage did not join the battle with the clay puppet, but was waiting for the next enemy. However, the subsequent enemies did not come up the stairs for a long time, and the sudden bright light made them confused. The goblin ambushing at the front poked his head out, and he clearly saw the blond girl holding a dagger, and inserted the weapon into his eye socket with a calm expression.
The apprentice-level giant power technique gave the girl the strength of a bear, and she stabbed the dagger neatly into the root. While quickly destroying the enemy's brain, it also squeezes out the other eyeball and bursts out plasma. Halumi then used the goblin as a shield and rushed up to the second floor, blocking the incoming attacks and clearing a small space for herself to use her hands and feet.
Lin, who was watching from behind, was still a little uncomfortable even though he had seen it countless times. Yes, the fighting style of magicians in this world is so brutal. Even a girl under the age of ten becomes a magic apprentice, and after a few years of adventure, she can kill other creatures without changing her expression at the age of a primary school student.
There is only one reason why the magic martial arts style of play has become the mainstream, and that is the auxiliary magic in this world. The gain effect and duration are quite impressive. Instead of constantly bombarding the enemy with fireballs, covering yourself with buffers, trampling the enemy under your feet, and then beating the opponent's head to pieces with one stick after another, the spiritual satisfaction is incomparable to the former.
Fighting started on both sides of the passage, and Lin Cai walked up to the second floor unhurriedly. The narrow space allowed the two of them to walk side by side. If they wanted to kill each other, there was really no room for friendly troops standing beside them, so Lin did not rush to join the battle on either side.
There is no danger in the direction of Halumi for the time being, but the possible danger comes from the side of the clay doll. While the commander himself was busy fighting, the puppets just followed their instincts and attacked each other with the invading enemies. The golem's defensive power comes from the material used to shape its body, and clay is of course the lowest level. As long as it is cut off or cut away from the body, it will turn into nothingness and return to the discrete elemental state.
In other words, the clay puppet is just a useful cannon fodder, a tool used to deflect part of the attack when dealing with a large number of enemies. The reward for the elemental spirit that possesses it is the magic stone or magic stone powder used at the beginning of the summoning. They will only last for a maximum of one day, or until they are dispersed. When everything is over, the body that was temporarily formed in the material world will be abandoned and return to where it came from.
Therefore, you can always see this kind of temporarily summoned devil on the battlefield, being beaten smaller and smaller, and then disappearing completely. Lin knows this very well, so he will take over the battle in the direction of the clay puppet. And this time is coming sooner than expected.
When the remaining clay dolls turned into clay dolls and were crushed by a kick, Lin saw perhaps his biggest opponent this time - the hobgoblin. Some relatively strong mothers will occasionally give birth to goblins with extraordinary talents. They have nothing to do with being thin. They have bodies twice the size of ordinary goblins. Their thick arms and legs contain strength beyond that of ordinary humans.
However, the one in front of him was in a much more miserable state, with several wounds on his body still stained with pus and blood, and a bone-deep wound on his lower jaw, which made the already ugly face even more ferocious. Only a small part of the old leather armor was still hanging on the body, leaving it completely defenseless. On the other hand, the huge bone on the hand is quite threatening. It may be the leg bone of some powerful monster. The magical power emanating from it makes people shiver.
This hobgoblin directed two ordinary goblins around him to use blow darts. Generally speaking, these weapons would be poisoned by them, increasing their lethality to people. However, for Lin, a real magician, the wind barrier that had been on him from the beginning easily pushed the blowing arrow away.
The blow dart had no effect on a human wearing a robe, which seemed to surprise the two goblins. However, they didn't think much about it. With a strange scream, they grabbed sticks and attacked. The thin stature of ordinary goblins allowed them to fight side by side in this narrow passage.
But this did not pose a threat. Lin put his left hand on the ground with his stick and easily blocked the attack from one side. At the same time, the magician-level giant force technique, combined with a wave of the short sword in his hand, went directly towards the thin neck of the other goblin, cutting it in two.
After taking care of one of them, Lin looked at the other goblin who retreated to the wall. The frightened expression made people feel indescribable disgust. Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is the most common trait of these uncivilized low-level races. So Lin didn't say much and kicked his legs directly towards the goblin's head. Suddenly red and white splashed all over the floor. Needless to say, there was a lot on my feet.
All these cruel scenes seemed to arouse the ferocity of the hobgoblin, causing him to hold the bone high and swing it directly. Although Lin had blessed himself with the Stone Skin Technique, he had no interest in using the Tianling Gai to pick up the mace. The raised cane blocked Gu Duo's attack, and the dagger was going straight underneath. With the huge increase in strength, Lin was like poking tofu, without any hindrance. But there were a few more holes in the hobgoblin's body, spraying blood.
You must be merciless when dealing with enemies, especially uncivilized ethnic groups. Good intentions cannot bring good results. Lin knew it very well, so after he inserted his last sword into the hobgoblin's belly, he didn't pull it out. Instead, he dragged it to the side, letting the hobgoblin's intestines fall all over the floor.
Massive bleeding and serious injuries caused the hobgoblin to collapse to the ground, but he still glared fiercely at the person in front of him, as if trying to scare him away. However, this will not deter people like Lin who have clearly understood what kind of attitude they must have to survive in this world. He stepped on the hobgoblin's heaving chest, inserted the dagger into his opponent's neck and spine, and then click!
After taking care of the enemies in front of him, Lin took a moment to look at the situation of Halumi behind him. Although there are more enemies on the girl's side, there are no higher-level enemies like the hobgoblins, so they have entered the finishing stage, inflicting the final blow on the still panting goblins. So Lin headed straight for the third floor.
The heavy stone gate remains intact. The materials used to build the Magic Tower are rare and expensive, which ensures its reliability and sturdiness. It may still be destroyed by huge external forces, but it is obviously not something that goblins can do.
Although judging from the appearance of the tower, there is some damage to the third floor, the core room is definitely intact. Because the previous tower owners confirmed to the Magic Association the integrity of the core part of the tower. The damage occurred earlier in history. So as long as the stone gate is intact, there is no need to worry about the enemy ambushing behind.
Put your right hand with the mark on the stone door and recite the secret mantra silently. This magic tower, which had been in the dust for several years, once again welcomed its new owner.
The magic energy spreads along special lines and connects to the energy pool that maintains the lowest level of operation. The energy fed back drives the mechanism of the stone door, slowly raising the stone door with a rumbling sound.
The core room of the tower, which was originally pitch black, was dimly lit. As the stone gate rises, the light becomes brighter. When the passage was fully opened, the magic chandelier hanging high in the center of the tower's core room was fully lit.
