Ranger "Tracking" "Camouflage"

Obviously!

The Hobgoblin thought it had survived because it had called out to the Troll Tribe Lords just now.

Looking at the cowardly Hobgoblin, which also showed a hint of cunning and stupidity, Tang Zheng shook his head lightly.

Sure enough, even if it has intelligence comparable to a human's.

But lacking cognition and other factors, it's still foolish. It can't even distinguish the basic situation before it, yet it still wants to use this to threaten others.

Tang Zheng chuckled softly, then suddenly raised his leg and kicked the Hobgoblin in the chest.

Bang!

The Hobgoblin let out a wail as its body slammed heavily into a nearby tree. Its wounds, which had not fully recovered, split open again from the impact, and excruciating pain surged through it.

"Ah, it hurts!"

"I won't do it again, human lord."

"Please, spare me."

"Human lord..."

The Hobgoblin's somewhat shrill voice echoed through the forest.

"You're so noisy."

"If you keep making noise, I'll execute you."

Tang Zheng hoisted the Iron Sword in his hand and walked over step by step.

Hearing this,

the Hobgoblin hurriedly covered its mouth with its hands and shrank beneath the tree, trembling. Its black pupils were filled with fear.

Tang Zheng walked up in front of it and looked down at the Hobgoblin. He nodded. "Good. This means we can communicate normally."

"Yes, yes, human l-lord."

"Tell me your name."

"Human lord, my name is Muguo."

"Muguo?"

"Yes, I... I like eating fruit from trees, so I was given this name. This is..."

Tang Zheng impatiently waved his hand, interrupting the Hobgoblin. "There's no need for the nonsense. Tell me, why are you here?"

"I, I..."

The Hobgoblin stammered.

"Don't think about hiding anything. I know you're a Hobgoblin from a tribe called the 'Jike Tribe.'" Looking at the Hobgoblin's expression, Tang Zheng spoke coldly.

When Hobgoblin Muguo heard the words "Jike Tribe," his entire body trembled. His face showed not only shock but also an expression of terrified despair.

He had no idea why the human powerhouse before him knew that his tribe existed!

The next moment!

Hobgoblin Muguo anxiously spilled out everything in one breath.

The Goblin traits of cunning, weakness, and cowardice were displayed to the fullest in him.

The matter was not complicated.

June and July were the seasons most suitable for Goblin reproduction, but the Hobgoblin race had far more difficulty conceiving than ordinary Goblins.

Therefore, Hobgoblins mated with ordinary Goblins so that they could produce offspring more easily, although there was a high chance that the offspring would only be ordinary Goblins.

But compared to the pregnancy rate between two Hobgoblins, the odds were obviously much higher.

Hobgoblin Muguo had appeared in the outer region because he wanted to select some healthy and outstanding individuals from among the Goblins and bring them back to the Jike Tribe, allowing the tribe to reproduce more effectively.

As a result,

he encountered Tang Zheng, who was slaughtering Goblins. After discovering that Tang Zheng was alone, the events that followed occurred.

While Hobgoblin Muguo spilled out his answers, Tang Zheng also took the opportunity to figure out his abilities.

Hobgoblin Muguo's Class information was the opposite of what Tang Zheng had initially guessed. Instead, it was the possibility he had considered less likely.

He was not a Druid.

He had the two Basic Classes of "Ranger" and "Forest Priest."

This surprised Tang Zheng greatly. He had not expected that a Goblin could actually master a Class like "Forest Priest."

From the simple attack just now, Tang Zheng could easily tell that regardless of whether it was the "Forest Priest" or "Ranger" Class, this Hobgoblin's level was not high.

Its Overall Level should not exceed 7Lv.

Rangers were a demi-human race skilled in reconnaissance, exploration, and shooting while living in the jungle. Most of them could possess this Class, such as the Elves.

"Tracking" could be considered a basic skill. To Tang Zheng, it was somewhat useful.

This Hobgoblin did not possess any more advanced skills.

As for the "Camouflage" magic,

Tang Zheng was somewhat conflicted about it. Aside from being relatively effective in jungles, this magic did not work particularly well elsewhere.

It was far inferior to the more adaptable 2nd Tier Mana-based System magic, "Invisibility."

However!

Since he could obtain the rare Basic Class "Forest Priest," Tang Zheng simply mastered it as well.

After obtaining the two Basic Classes from Hobgoblin Muguo,

Tang Zheng did not feel there was anything worth celebrating. Instead, he slightly furrowed his brows.

He had noticed earlier

that when Hobgoblin Muguo fled, the complex environment of the jungle seemed to have no effect on him at all. The trees and bushes had automatically moved aside.

That kind of ability should not have been a Hobgoblin's Talent.

Under Tang Zheng's expressionless gaze,

Hobgoblin Muguo huddled beneath the tree trunk. His pained green cheeks revealed an expression of heartache and deep reluctance.

Only then did he reluctantly remove an item hanging from his neck. It was attached like a necklace by an extremely tough vine and was a white, bone-like object about the size of a ping-pong ball.

The object seemed to be the bone of some kind of animal. If Hobgoblin Muguo had not taken it off himself, Tang Zheng truly would not have noticed it.

He had originally thought it was merely some kind of bone-shaped ornament carried by a demi-human like Hobgoblin Muguo.

"Human lord, this is the treasure of our 'Jike Tribe.'"

Hobgoblin Muguo held up the ancient-looking necklace in both hands and respectfully offered it.

He knew perfectly well that his life was currently in the human's hands. If he displeased him, he could very likely lose his life at any moment.
