Information appeared on the Attribute Panel.
Tang Zheng realized that his sudden shout had frightened the other party into revealing itself.
Rustle—
Rustle—
A large number of birds flew out of the jungle and headed into the distance.
Tang Zheng stared intently ahead. The jungle looked utterly silent, yet he still could not spot any trace of a living creature.
After exploring for so long,
Tang Zheng had already figured out some of the basic conditions for triggering the Player ability.
That Goblin following him had to be within his field of vision!
Otherwise, no information would have appeared on the Attribute Panel.
The other party could evade his sight and senses, but it could not evade the ability of the Innate Talent, Player.
First-Tier magic, Camouflage?
Tang Zheng's eyes flickered. He knew this spell could reduce the caster's presence and disguise them within the surrounding jungle environment.
Like a chameleon.
Moreover, this spell could only be used by Divine System casters.
Based on the classes he had previously inferred!
There were only two Basic Classes: Forest Priest and Druid.
Of course, Forest Mages and certain mid- and high-tier classes could use it as well, but he did not believe that Goblin possessed such classes.
A Druid?
It was skilled at tracking and could use Divine System magic.
Classes were only divided into three Class Levels—basic, mid-tier, and high-tier—but even classes of the same level varied in strength.
For example, although Paladins were Warrior classes, they possessed all sorts of blessing skills as well as the ability to cast Divine System magic.
In class evaluations, Paladins were still categorized as Warriors and did not contribute to Caster Level.
Druids were similar.
Of course, there was another possibility!
The other party possessed the support-oriented caster class Forest Priest. If so, it should have a second class specialized in tracking.
In other words, it was a dual-class user!
These thoughts flashed through Tang Zheng's mind, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Now that he had roughly determined its location, all he had to do was force it out.
Although Camouflage was extremely stealthy in a jungle environment, the caster could not move too violently.
Rustle—
Rustle—
Just as Tang Zheng was about to rush out of the narrow jungle passage, an intense commotion suddenly erupted from the tall trees on both sides of the entrance.
The next moment!
Two enormous Trolls burst out of the forest and blocked the entrance to the narrow passage.
At the sight of this,
Tang Zheng froze for a moment, then let out a cold laugh.
They had prepared quite thoroughly!
These two Trolls were clearly meant to block the way. There had to be quite a few more Trolls in that Goblin settlement. If he rashly entered, then in this terrain, once these two Trolls blocked the path—
Even if he could kill them, he would waste the best opportunity to retreat. Once the other Trolls surrounded and attacked him, he would be in real danger.
Bang!
Tang Zheng forcefully kicked off the ground with both feet. Already running, he accelerated again and charged toward the entrance with the swiftness of a cheetah.
"Quick Slash!"
A low shout rang out.
Before the two Trolls had even found their footing, Tang Zheng charged toward the Troll on the left and fiercely swept his iron sword sideways!
Splat!
Blood sprayed everywhere.
Overwhelming force poured from the blade. The Troll on the left was sliced cleanly in half at the waist. At such close range, green blood splashed all over Tang Zheng.
With a twist of his head!
Tang Zheng paid it no mind and charged at the Troll on the right again.
Another swift slash!
Without the enhancement of a skill, the power and speed of this strike were noticeably weaker.
Panic showed in the right Troll's eyes. However, unlike the Troll on the left, it had enough time to react and hurriedly raised its enormous wooden club before itself.
Crack—
The iron sword chopped into the club, sending splinters flying. It cut roughly two-thirds of the way through the thick club before stopping.
The tremendous force behind Tang Zheng's swing even forced the Troll back a step.
With the strength of a max-level Sword Saint, Tang Zheng was stronger than Trolls whose average level was only around thirteen or fourteen. Even with the attribute advantage of their Demi-Human Species, Tang Zheng still held the upper hand in strength.
What a shame!
Tang Zheng looked at the Troll that had blocked his attack, regret appearing in his eyes.
His weapon was simply too poor.
If he had a magic weapon... no, even a weapon forged from high-quality metal, the other party would not have been able to block that strike.
Seeing that it had blocked the terrifying attack that could kill its companion in a single blow!
Confusion appeared in the right Troll's eyes. It seemed unable to understand how its companion had been cut down with one slash.
But that confusion
was clearly not worth pondering for a Troll. It only knew that the human before it could not kill it. The panic vanished, replaced by a savage, vicious expression.
The arm wielding its club was pinned down by the iron sword!
The Troll raised its other arm, clenched its hand into a fist, and smashed it fiercely toward Tang Zheng.
A fierce gust swept over him!
Tang Zheng merely sidestepped and easily avoided the punch.
"Seeing your companion get cut down so easily, a human would have turned and run long ago. Yet you actually dared to strike back?"
Tang Zheng stood half-turned, looking at the massive fist that thundered past him as he spoke mockingly.
That punch had plenty of force behind it. If it hit him, he would certainly be injured, but if it could not hit him, it meant nothing.
Tang Zheng raised his free left hand and aimed at the Troll's heart. In an instant, an iron sword appeared in his left palm.
He thrust forward with force!
The iron sword easily pierced the Troll's rough, tough skin and plunged into its heart.
Aroooh!!
With a hard twist, the Troll immediately let out an incomparably miserable howl.
Splat!
Tang Zheng pulled out the iron sword.
Ignoring the Troll that collapsed in agony, Tang Zheng stepped over the two Trolls and walked toward the jungle ahead.
After taking only a few steps, the information on the Attribute Panel refreshed.
"Experience gained: 310" "Experience gained: 285" "Experience Points: 3215/5000"
No matter how Toughness their vitality was, one had been cut in half and the other had been pierced through the heart. Neither lasted more than a few seconds before dying completely.
At the same time!
"Roar!!"
"Wahoo!!"
"Arooh!"
"..."
Almost at the exact moment he killed the two Trolls, beastlike roars suddenly erupted from the Goblin settlement behind him.
Tang Zheng turned his head and glanced back. From what he could see alone, at least five Trolls had charged out of the jungle.
Clearly!
These Trolls had originally planned to wait until he entered the Goblin settlement before coming out. But seeing that Tang Zheng had not entered and was instead leaving, they could no longer hold themselves back and charged out.
However!
The long, narrow jungle passage was not suitable for several massive Trolls to rush through at once. The group of Trolls ended up crammed together in the passage, roaring continuously.
"Tch, too slow."
Tang Zheng held an iron sword in each hand. A cold expression spread across his face as he turned back toward the jungle before him.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Tang Zheng continuously swung his twin swords at the surrounding shrubs, grass, and branches, wreaking destruction over a wide area.
Broken green leaves and branches flew everywhere.
He did not know where that Goblin was hiding, but as long as he destroyed everything within his field of vision, that would be enough!
At the same time!
Hidden behind a patch of grass beside a lush, leafy tree only about ten meters away from Tang Zheng, the Goblin was trembling violently.
At that moment, the Goblin's entire body was the same color as the surrounding grass and trees, leaving no trace of its existence whatsoever.
I'm going to die!
I'm definitely going to die!
The whites of the Goblin's eyes were filled with terror and panic as its entire body shook without end.
