A cloud of dust billowed outwards from the point where the hammer and sword met.
A second later, two enormous green figures flew backward from the smoke and dust with incredulous expressions.
Luo Xiu, who was standing still, also found it unbelievable.
He looked completely bewildered.
It doesn't feel like the other person used much force.
If I had to describe it, it would be like punching a sandbag with all my might, only to find that the sandbag is hollow.
Although the sandbag wouldn't break with a single punch, I didn't really feel any resistance.
Looking at the two second-tier goblins lying on the ground, grimacing in pain and unable to get up for a long time.
Luo Xiu picked up a stone hammer that had fallen to the ground and was half broken, and casually swung it around.
Yes, it's not very heavy; it's much lighter than my own sword.
Beside him, the four Tier 1 goblins that had been biting him and refusing to let go had all been knocked unconscious by the impact of the collision.
Luo Xiu took the stone hammer and smashed them one by one like whack-a-mole.
They were all sent on their way.
Another 8 points were earned.
The remaining goblins stood not far from Luo Xiu, their expressions frozen.
They were originally planning to go in the second round, but now they don't know what to do.
Although they are not naturally afraid of death, the sharp screams of the two second-tier goblins beside them constantly stimulated their nerves.
After much hesitation, some of them began to slowly retreat, and the others, seeing their companions retreating, immediately started running backward as well.
These goblins were actually afraid of Luo Xiu!
The goblins in front of him scattered in all directions, and Luo Xiu knew that the battle was nearing its end.
But he always felt a bit stifled inside, as if he had been holding back a lot of energy, only to have it all go to waste.
Could it be that I was mistaken, and these two goblins might not have any other thoughts, let alone recognize me?
After thinking it over carefully, he smiled with relief.
Indeed, what could two second-tier goblins possibly be thinking? I was just being too sensitive.
Since arriving in this world, I've encountered so many illogical things that I've become a bit overly cautious sometimes.
In any case, it's a good thing that I can now easily defeat second-tier goblins.
Thinking of this, he felt better and prepared to quickly take care of the remaining goblins.
But suddenly, the two second-tier goblins saw him move and scrambled to their feet in alarm.
They ran quickly toward a spherical house made of piled stones in the center of the settlement.
Luo Xiu's heart skipped a beat.
I wanted to stop them, but it was too late; the two second-tier goblins were too close to the house.
The two second-tier goblins ran to the front of the house, knelt down, and kept making pitiful "heh heh heh" noises.
Half a second later, a thick, twisted staff, as thick as a tree, emerged from the shadows inside the house and crushed half of the body of one of the second-tier goblins.
Then, to Luo Xiu's astonishment, the staff pointed at him, and extremely broken Gran Continent language came from inside the room:
"You...you still dare...to...come...here."
Chapter 27 Goblin Priest (Please continue reading)
Holy crap, this trip was totally worth it.
I heard the goblin speak human language.
As a huge figure emerged from the spherical house, hunched over, Luo Xiu couldn't help but gasp.
He found it difficult to describe what kind of creature the guy in front of him was.
Green skin, a hooked nose, and crimson eyes—all these features indicate that the creature before you is a goblin.
But this goblin is way too big.
Just now, it was hunched over trying to get out of the spherical house, but now, standing upright, it looks like a small giant, even bigger than Leila after her transformation.
Yet he was dressed in a priestly robe decorated with colorful feathers, held a staff in his hands, had painted face, and wore a wooden crow's beak mask, indicating that he was a priest.
But what kind of priest attacks by smashing someone to death with a staff?!
Luo Xiu used his investigative skills.
A yellow glow emanated from the goblin priest.
As expected... it's a Tier 3 goblin.
The difference between these third-tier and second-tier goblins is enormous!
Luo Xiu recalled the third-tier creatures he had seen so far.
The towering Tier 3 slimes on the Slime Plains, Hill drawing her bow and unleashing a rain of arrows, and Tassanya punching her, who was then a Tier 2 slime protected by thorns, to the brink of death.
All of this illustrates one fact: the difference in strength between each rank in this world is enormous.
And what about me now?
Am I strong enough for Tier 3 now?
Luo Xiu looked at the tall goblin priest opposite him, a faint fighting spirit rising in his heart.
The fight just now wasn't really satisfying.
He calculated the cards he currently held and felt that he was not in dire straits no matter what.
We can win this battle!!!
"You...you actually dared to come...you're not leaving."
The goblin priest looked down at Luo Xiu with disdain.
Luo Xiu's heart stirred upon hearing these words.
This is the second time the goblin priest has said this.
In other words, these goblins really do know themselves.
Or perhaps they are simply aware of their own existence.
I know there's someone who's been hunting goblins like crazy.
But in either case, there is a clear problem.
So, if they know about me, why don't they come looking for me?
On the contrary, it was very difficult for me to find goblins.
Before Luo Xiu could figure it out, the goblin priest on the other side suddenly moved.
"Ula!!!"
It shouted some kind of chant and slammed the sacrificial staff it was holding into the ground.
The patterns on the sacrificial staff shimmered.
Thick vines burst forth from the ground, forming a tight circular wall that surrounded and encircled Luo Xiu and the goblin priest.
"Don't even think about... leaving..."
The goblin priest's two fangs curled upwards at the corners of his mouth, as if he felt that he had cut off Luo Xiu's escape route and that Luo Xiu was doomed.
Luo Xiu smiled:
"I didn't intend to leave."
He gripped his black broadsword tightly, took a step forward, and chose to take the initiative.
The goblin priest's eyes were filled with mockery when he saw this.
He had seen many humans, berserkers or swordsmen, who, relying on their strength, dared to challenge him head-on.
But they always won, and their heads were strung together to make a necklace.
It looks like the necklace will get a little longer today.
Thinking of this, he gently swung his fist, preparing to finish off the arrogant human in front of him.
boom!
Fist and sword collide.
Blood splattered.
Luo Xiu was forced back several steps by the immense force transmitted from the sword.
Looking at the bright red, straight wound on the goblin priest's fist, Luo Xiu wiped the sweat from his brow and smiled:
"It's not too late to remove the wall and run away now."
"Jah!!!"
The goblin priest, enraged, unleashed a primal roar.
He hadn't expected that Luo Xiu would actually hurt him, and even with his limited knowledge of the Gran Continent language, he could tell that Luo Xiu was mocking him.
As an elite among goblins, he would never allow a human to humiliate his dignity.
He did underestimate his opponent just now, but this time, he will give it his all!
This time, he will take down Luo Xiu in one fell swoop!
boom! ! !
The two launched another attack.
Separate as soon as you touch.
The goblin priest stared in disbelief at his fist, now bearing another wound, and at Luo Xiu, who had staggered back more than ten steps.
