Chapter 77: Another Battle Against the Goblin Leader
Chapter 77: Another Battle Against the Goblin Leader
In the forest, there were puddles everywhere due to the heavy rain of the previous two days.
Chen Hao and Chen Zhong walked very carefully through the forest.
First, be wary of wild animals that may appear at any time; second, avoid puddles on the road.
With a "whoosh," just as Chen Hao passed by a large tree, a venomous snake hidden in the tree suddenly bit him.
"My lord, please be careful."
Chen Zhong was extremely anxious.
Then I saw me wave my staff, and a wind blade flew out from the staff.
He accurately hit the venomous snake and cut it in half.
This is the wind blade spell that comes with the Wolf King's Staff.
Unlike the spells Chen Hao possessed, the spells attached to the Wolf King Staff could be cast instantly as long as there was enough mana, making them extremely convenient.
"My lord is mighty!"
Seeing Chen Hao kill the venomous snake with ease, Chen Zhong quickly said...
"You little brat, when did you learn to flatter? You're just a little poisonous snake."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhong scratched his head and chuckled twice.
The two continued on their way.
The place Chen Hao was taking Chen Zhong to was the goblin gathering place.
Three days have passed now, and a goblin leader should have spawned there by now.
Along the way, the two did not encounter any powerful wild beasts.
The strongest were only three gray wolves, who blocked their path but were easily dealt with by Chen Zhong.
"Goblin".
Chen Hao's face lit up with joy as he looked at two goblins catching toads in a puddle not far ahead.
"Chen Zhong, kill one of those goblins and spare the other. I need someone to guide me."
"Understood, my lord."
Chen Zhong quickly replied.
He then grinned maliciously and strode forward to the two goblins.
The two goblins, not being very intelligent, saw that Chen Zhong was alone while there were two of them, and confidently raised their sticks to strike at Chen Zhong.
Chen Zhong kicked away the wooden sticks in the hands of two goblins and swung his knife to cut off the head of one of the goblins.
The other goblin was terrified.
It was only when Chen Zhong kicked it that it woke up and then ran away as fast as it could.
"Follow it."
Chen Hao walked over at that moment.
"Yes, my lord."
The two of them followed behind the goblin.
Although Chen Hao marked the way to the goblin camp, it took time to find the marks, so it was more convenient to have the goblins lead the way.
Soon, following the goblin, the two arrived near the goblin camp.
The goblin that had fled into the camp looked back and, seeing no enemy pursuing it, breathed a sigh of relief.
Then I found my usual spot and went to sleep.
Chen Hao carefully observed the goblin camp from outside.
Soon, he saw a new goblin leader in the middle of the camp, being surrounded and served by a group of goblins.
"Chen Zhong, that's the goblin leader. Are you confident you can handle him?"
Chen Hao pointed at the goblin leader and asked Chen Zhong.
After staring at the goblin leader for a while, Chen Zhong nodded and said, "My lord, I have confidence."
"it is good."
Chen Hao nodded in satisfaction.
"You need to complete the job change quest alone; no one else can help you. So I can't help you, and I'm not capable of helping you."
"But I'll hold off the other goblins for you; you just need to focus on dealing with the goblin leader."
"And here, take this knife."
As he spoke, Chen Hao took the Blood-Drinking Blade from his waist and handed it to Chen Zhong.
"Although this knife is somewhat damaged, its associated abilities are still usable."
"You'll be better able to deal with that goblin leader with this knife."
Chen Hao said.
Chen Zhong hurriedly declined, saying, "No, my lord, I've already used your sword, what will you use?"
"I have this."
As he spoke, Chen Hao took out a purple card, and with a flash of purple light, a long sword with an ancient design appeared in his hand.
It is the [Hundred-Refined Longsword], which is synthesized from three [Refined Steel Longswords]. It is Chen Hao's spare weapon, and it has the effects of armor penetration and bleeding.
Seeing this, Chen Zhong finally accepted the Blood-Drinking Blade that Chen Hao offered.
"What a fine knife!" Chen Zhong said, holding the knife and swinging it a few times, his expression a mixture of regret and excitement.
Unfortunately, such a fine knife has a chipped tip.
Then, Chen Hao took out a whip from the backpack behind him; it was the [Black Lizard Whip].
"This whip has a powerful binding effect. If you activate this effect at a crucial moment and bind the goblin leader, you can basically end the battle."
"Thank you, my lord."
Chen Zhong took the whip from Chen Hao's hand, deeply moved.
"My lord is too good to me."
If loyalty were displayed at this point, Chen Zhong's loyalty to Chen Hao would probably be off the charts.
"My lord, shall we charge in now?"
"No rush."
Chen Hao shook his head, then took the Purple Tiger Bow off his back and handed it to Chen Zhong.
"I killed this goblin leader with just one arrow."
"My lord is truly amazing."
Stop flattering me and let me finish.
"But I truly believe that my lord is truly remarkable, and this is not flattery."
Chen Hao was speechless upon hearing this.
"Okay, I'll take that as your honest opinion."
"And when I'm being scolded or when I don't like what I'm saying, and someone interrupts, do you understand?"
"Understood, my lord. It was my fault. I will never dare to do it again."
Chen Zhong's expression changed, and he was about to kneel down to apologize, but Chen Hao grabbed him.
"How many times have I told you, don't kneel down so easily?"
Then, Chen Hao continued, "Do you know how to shoot arrows?"
"Won't."
Chen Zhong honestly shook his head.
"It's okay if you don't know how. In a moment, you'll bend the bow, nock the arrow, and then activate the Purple Tiger Bow's charge and armor-piercing effects."
"An arrow was shot at the goblin leader."
"It would be good if you hit it, but it doesn't matter if you miss. With the Blood-Drinking Blade and the Black Lizard Whip, that's enough for you to deal with that goblin leader."
Next, under Chen Hao's guidance, Chen Zhong drew the Purple Tiger Bow to its full extent, activating its charge and armor-piercing effects, and aimed at the goblin leader's position.
With a "thud," Chen Zhongsong released the bowstring.
The arrow, like lightning, covered a distance of tens of meters and struck the goblin leader, a goblin next to him wielding a rusty longsword.
The moment the goblin was hit by the arrow, a large, bloody hole was torn open in its upper body.
Several goblins behind it were also pierced by the arrow at that moment.
The goblin leader was startled by the huge commotion.
Immediately following was immense anger.
"Roar!" It roared angrily, raised the huge spiked club beside it, and charged towards Chen Hao.
That arrow revealed their location.
"What a pity."
Seeing that he had failed to hit the goblin leader, Chen Hao shook his head regretfully.
"My lord, I have disappointed you."
Chen Zhong said dejectedly.
"It's okay, failure is failure. From now on, it's all about your ability."
"Rest assured, my lord, I will not let you down this time."
Chen Zhong's eyes were firm.
Just then, the goblin leader led a group of goblins to attack.
"Alright, I look forward to your performance."
"kill."
Chen Hao roared and was the first to rush forward.
"kill."
Chen Zhong followed closely behind.
Soon, Chen Hao encountered his first goblin. With a swift stroke of his longsword, the sharp blade sliced the goblin in two.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Hao charged into the goblin horde and wreaked havoc on all sides.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept in from behind, and Chen Hao quickly dodged.
Upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be the goblin leader wielding a spiked club.
Chen Hao ignored the other party and continued to kill the weak goblins.
The goblin leader was furious upon seeing this and was about to chase after Chen Hao.
Just then, Chen Zhong blocked its path, looking at it with a fierce expression.
"Your opponent is me."
The next moment, a human and a goblin began to fight each other.
Chen Hao roamed around them, and anyone who was about to step forward to support the goblin leader was swiftly and cleanly killed by him.
