Bang!
The slender arrow streaked through the air, landing directly in the center of the goblin group. Instantly, a spark ignited, followed by a massive explosion. The large goblin, who had been scratching his pockets just a second before, was blasted away. His dilapidated iron pot shattered into pieces, scattering jelly-like black liquid everywhere.
The shockwave from the explosion sent the dozen or so goblins, who had been lazily lying on the ground, flying. The ones who were too close were instantly engulfed in flames, screaming as they plunged into the filthy ditch. Judging by their motionless state in the sewage, they were likely dead.
"Who is it! Who dares to do this!"
The next moment, a tall figure rose from the flames, his green skin covered in charred wounds. His狰狞 face and mangled flesh made him look like a demon, and his murderous roar echoed through the dark sewer.
Roaring, the large goblin staggered towards his blasted weapon, a half-man-high thigh bone, which he gripped tightly. Using the remaining light from the fire, he looked in the direction the arrow had come from. If he hadn't instinctively sensed danger and grabbed the nearest goblin to shield himself before the explosion, he would have likely died.
Even though he survived, he was now seriously injured. But the large goblin couldn't care less about his wounds. The pain and the anger of being ambushed had completely destroyed his already fragile sanity. All he could think about was tearing his enemies to pieces.
"Humans, adventurers!"
The next moment, the large goblin saw Tuka near the exit. He waved his bone club and charged forward with a roar. His tall figure and demonic face were intimidating, and the remaining goblins grabbed corpses and wooden roots, howling as they followed him.
"Get ready, goblins are coming!"
Tuka watched the approaching goblins and calmly retreated, perfectly avoiding all the traps to reach his companions. He handed his bow and arrow to Nina and took out a round shield and long sword from his back, standing in front of everyone with a serious expression.
Swish!
An arrow flew past Tuka, and a goblin who had just rushed in fell to the ground. The arrow had completely pierced his throat, and his ugly face was twisted into a grimace, but his eyes were filled with a desperate desire for life.
"Good job, Nina!"
Tuka smiled as he watched the goblin fall. Although Nina was still a young girl, her archery skills were already good enough to make her a core member of the team.
"It's because you chose a good position, Captain."
Nina blushed slightly at Tuka's praise. The main reason she was able to shoot the goblin in the throat so easily was because of the location. The narrow passage only allowed two goblins to walk side by side, and the traps made them easy targets. Moreover, the single exit prevented them from being surrounded.
In addition, the goblins had already been injured in the explosion, which made it even easier for Nina to kill them with a single shot.
"Damn humans, I'm going to eat you!"
Suddenly, a tall figure squeezed through the entrance, smashing the two goblins in front of him with a casual blow. Amidst the flying blood and flesh, the large goblin charged forward, triggering all the pre-set traps.
Before the large goblin could reach them, he was covered in arrows, and his feet were caught in animal traps. Blood flowed from his wounds, but strangely, the once-red blood now appeared black and viscous.
Thanks to the large goblin clearing all the traps, the remaining goblins were able to follow safely.
Seeing this, Tuka's smile widened. He winked at Gordon and charged at the large goblin, raising his shield to block the bone club. The others took the opportunity to attack the large goblin with their weapons.
Due to the limited space, the goblins behind the large goblin were unable to attack and could only watch anxiously as the large goblin sustained more and more injuries.
....
Meanwhile, Lu Minghao, hiding in a corner crevice, was cautiously observing the outside. He tentatively moved his body out, The three giant rats had left for a while, and surprisingly, no pursuers had come after him.
Seeing this, Lu Minghao dared to carefully leave the hiding crevice, but he was always ready to hide back as soon as he heard any movement. After all, he was just a weak slime. With his physical abilities, he could only fight an ordinary person without weapons to a draw. Of course, if he relied on poison to sneak attack... even the villagers of an ordinary village wouldn't be enough for him to kill.
After all, with his terrifying toxicity, he could secretly poison the village's water well with all his strength, and it wouldn't take long to send the entire village off neatly.
"Hmm? Is there really no pursuers, or do those humans think those giant rats aren't worth wasting time on?"
After a while, Lu Minghao, who had left the crevice and was hiding in a corner, carefully poked a part of his body out. After confirming that there were no enemies, he jumped to the spot where the giant rats had run before, looking at the bloodstains left by the injured giant rat on the ground and muttering to himself.
After all, with such obvious traces, humans could easily follow them. But no pursuers had come for so long, either they didn't think it was worth it and gave up the chase... or they were held back by something.
Bang!
The next moment, a muffled explosion came from a distance, the loud sound echoing through the sewer, and the originally calm sewage rippled slightly. After the explosion disappeared, Lu Minghao, who had hidden in the corner crevice the moment the explosion sounded, dared to poke his head out again.
"That's an explosion, which means the humans who were fighting the three giant rats are in danger?"
Lu Minghao looked in the direction of the explosion. The three giant rats had also escaped from that direction before, which meant the humans were fighting there, and they had encountered some powerful monster, forcing them to use a powerful attack.
"Eh? What's this?"
At this moment, something floating from the ditch attracted Lu Minghao's attention. It was the corpse of a giant rat that looked exactly like the three that had escaped earlier, except the corpse's head was missing.
Pa!
The moment he saw the giant rat's corpse, Lu Minghao jumped directly onto its body, his jelly-like body completely enveloping it and began to absorb it rapidly. After a few seconds, a large amount of nutrients was completely absorbed by Lu Minghao, not only did his body grow significantly, but his magic power also increased a lot, and he even gained a new skill.
"Should I go freeload?"
Looking at his newly acquired skill, Lu Minghao looked in the direction of the explosion. If it had been before, Lu Minghao would have run as far as possible, but the new skill he had acquired gave him a new idea. After all, it seemed that the humans didn't care about the corpses of the monsters they killed, so it was reasonable for him to make use of the waste.
