Annihilation

Black Bone Camp.

Goblin leader Maggot Eye was planning an operation against Miracle City.

The Human Territory's Main City was temporarily out of reach.

But retaking Red Claw Village and Red Rock Mountain Mine would not be difficult.

However, with Black Bone's lesson fresh in his mind, Maggot Eye had become extremely cautious. Rather than immediately launching further attacks, he hurried his subordinates to build the camp's defenses.

He planned to launch a probing attack only after gaining a firm foothold, ensuring nothing could go wrong.

Suddenly.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

A series of heavy footsteps rang out.

Two Tank Zombies appeared before the camp. They were Irritable Little Chicken and White Crane Hermit from Miracle City. Relying on their formidable physiques, they tore straight through the half-built spiked fence.

Pig King, in Charger form, shouted, "Brothers, charge with me! Kill all these filthy Dark Race bastards!"

With that said.

He charged first.

At astonishing speed, he crashed into the dumbfounded Goblin Warriors.

Black Stone Hammer King yelled, "Damn it, you dare seize Miracle City's territory? Today, I'll beat the shit out of you!"

More than a dozen Regular Worker Contract Soldiers charged at the front to draw fire, followed closely by one hundred and eighty Zombie soldiers clad in black riot gear. This overwhelming assault left the Goblins utterly stunned.

"Fire!"

"Fire, now!"

The Dark Goblins came to their senses.

Poisoned arrows immediately flew out in waves.

They were mixed with spear throws of considerable power.

These attacks could not pose a fatal threat to thick-skinned monsters like Tanks and Chargers. Even ordinary Riot Zombies could withstand several hits with their riot gear.

When the two Tanks and three Chargers joined forces to smash through the camp gates.

The one hundred and eighty Zombie soldiers rushed inside in a frenzy.

Caught off guard, the Dark Goblins hastily fought back. Goblins were constantly sent flying, crushed to death by Tanks or torn apart. In mere moments, they suffered heavy casualties and were forced into a steady retreat.

Miracle City's forces were unstoppable.

Every adventurer was fired up.

Even Maggot Eye was Stunned by the sight before him.

As Gloomy City's foremost General, he considered himself cautious enough.

Yet he had never expected the Human Territory's offensive to come so swiftly and fiercely.

How could an almost brand-new Dungeon possess so much combat power? Where had these people come from? This completely exceeded Maggot Eye's understanding and imagination of the Human Territory!

Numbers alone would have been one thing!

Their combat strength was even more terrifying.

The Tanks, White Crane Hermit and Irritable Little Chicken.

These two hulking figures rampaged through the Goblins as though no one stood in their way. Irritable Little Chicken held a Goblin Warrior in one hand and swung him around like a weapon.

Five-Star Demons!

They were absolutely Five-Star Demons!

They were probably comparable to peak First Order combat power!

As Gloomy City's foremost General, Maggot Eye was not confident he could deal with two of them at once!

"Retreat!"

The situation was bad!

He retreated decisively!

Maggot Eye gathered the remaining troops and retreated with several trusted followers, only to find their path blocked by a pale, slender figure. It was none other than the Witch, Bright Moon Reflecting Snow.

"Trying to run? It won't be that easy!"

Bright Moon Reflecting Snow let out a piercing howl and rushed into the Dark Race at lightning speed. Her Claws struck down five or six Goblins in succession, either tearing open their throats or piercing their hearts. Every one of them died in a single exchange.

So fast!

Another Five-Star First Order fighter!

Just how many top-tier fighters did the humans have?

Maggot Eye's expression grew even graver as he faced the Witch Zombie.

At that moment, a Goblin Warlock stepped forward. He had already completed his chant and immediately cast a Spell.

Slow Spell!

An invisible resistance descended.

Bright Moon Reflecting Snow's speed slowed considerably, yet she still charged at Maggot Eye, intending to pierce the Goblin through.

Clang!

A crisp sound rang out.

The warblade blocked her Claws.

It left only five scratches on Maggot Eye's blade.

"You can actually block my attack? You've got some skill!"

Bright Moon Reflecting Snow Realized that this guy was the leader. She immediately launched an even more frenzied assault, hoping to take down this enemy commander before the other adventurers and claim the first merit.

Blade and Claws collided.

Sparks burst continuously.

Maggot Eye truly was Gloomy City's strongest fighter beneath the lord.

He blocked every attack from the Witch. Though he seemed to be on the defensive and at a disadvantage throughout, he was actually waiting for the best opportunity to counterattack.

Slow Spell!

The Goblin Warlock cast the Spell again.

Bright Moon Reflecting Snow's speed was further suppressed, and she inevitably revealed an opening.

Now!

Maggot Eye's single eye flashed sharply. His warblade whipped up a gust of wind, erupting with several inches of blade light as he swung out a spinning slash several times faster than before, instantly sweeping across Bright Moon Reflecting Snow's neck!

Weapon Art—Whirlwind Slash!

This strike was too swift, too sharp!

A red line appeared on Bright Moon Reflecting Snow's neck. "Damn it, I was careless..."

Though she was extremely unwilling, she had no choice but to accept the truth. This Goblin was indeed formidable, stronger than any she had encountered before.

Although Bright Moon Reflecting Snow was defeated and beheaded, her mission had been to hold Maggot Eye back and deny him the chance to organize a retreat. That mission had now been accomplished.

The Zombie forces had already formed an encirclement around the Goblins.

It was now extremely difficult for the Dark Race to break through.

"Not good!"

Maggot Eye's expression changed drastically.

He could no longer worry about anything else.

He prepared to break out alone with several trusted followers, saving himself first.

But just as Maggot Eye attempted his breakout, another oppressive figure appeared before him. This person had an ugly face, exposed gums, and wore a black coat while Wielding a massive Flamethrower. It was the Tracker controlled by Qi Ji.

"Go!"

"Kill him!"

Though they had not yet exchanged blows.

Maggot Eye could sense the other's power.

He immediately ordered several subordinates to attack first.

Before the Goblins could even get close, an incomparably scorching stream of high-pressure flame erupted and instantly swept over them, turning them into screaming fireballs On the Spot.

What kind of flame Spell was that?

Judging from its power, it nearly reached the Second Order!

It had instantly killed all of his elite Personal Guards.

Whirlwind Slash!

Though horrified, Maggot Eye did not hesitate. Seizing the instant when the flames receded, he swung a blade light at the Tracker.

Caster-type units had strong offense but weak defense.

This was his only chance to turn the tables!

Before Maggot Eye could fully unleash his Weapon Art, several tentacles suddenly emerged from within the ugly giant's body and wrapped around him in midair. Each tentacle carried the strength of a thousand pounds, binding him so tightly that he could not move.

"You're too weak."

Qi Ji gave a calm assessment.

"No!"

In Maggot Eye's utterly terrified gaze.

Qi Ji aimed the Flamethrower at Maggot Eye and fired again. High-pressure flames instantly engulfed the Goblin, forcibly burning him into a lump of charcoal!

A Second Order fighting a First Order.

It was a complete crushing victory!

Qi Ji had not yet had his fill.

By now, the remaining Goblins had been herded together by the adventurers.

Qi Ji stepped forward with the Flame Thrower, sweeping it across the area and spraying flames wildly. Wherever he passed, wails rang out without end. One Dark Goblin after another was turned into fireballs, rolling miserably across the ground.

Awesome!

This was too awesome!

This was not a battle at all!

Qi Ji felt like he was exterminating pests!

The two sides were not on the same level, so there was naturally no suspense!

Less than fifteen minutes later.

The battle was over.

All two hundred and one Goblins had been annihilated.

Miracle City's actual losses were minimal by comparison. Since the Contract Soldiers had charged into battle first, their losses were relatively severe. Five were lost, including Bright Moon Reflecting Snow, while the Mercenaries lost a total of fifteen.

Contract Soldiers cost nothing.

In other words, for the price of fifteen ordinary Soul Essences, they had wiped out two hundred Goblins from Gloomy City, along with their strongest leader. This was undoubtedly a Great Victory!

"We won!"

"That was satisfying!"

"This fight was insanely fun!"

"The Tracker's killing power is ridiculous!"

"The Flamethrower's area damage is insane!"

"When I reach Second Order, I'm definitely contracting a Tracker!"

They quickly cleaned up the battlefield.

To prevent the Dark Race from reviving.

The Goblin corpses were immediately destroyed.

You cremated a Dark Race corpse. Soul Crystal +10!

You cremated a Dark Race corpse. Soul Crystal +1!

You cremated a Dark Race corpse. Soul Crystal +2, Mental Strength +1!

They obtained a total of 585 Soul Crystals.

They then dismantled the Goblin equipment.

You recovered "Goblin Warblade." First Order Material Essence +7!

You recovered "Goblin Staff." First Order Material Essence +4!

You recovered "Goblin Leather Armor." First Order Material Essence +1!

There were 620 pieces of equipment and other loot.

Dismantling them all yielded 1,684 portions of Material Essence.

This was a huge amount of materials!

Miracle City's material reserves had been completely exhausted, reduced to zero.

This income was undoubtedly a timely rain!

With this.

The territory had sufficient resources.

It was about to enter another round of construction and development!

"Lord! Lord!" Tank Irritable Little Chicken stepped forward. She was covered in blood and small wounds. "I smashed at least thirteen Goblins to death in this battle!"

"Good work!"

Qi Ji first distributed double rewards to the adventurers.

He then asked, "Do you want to kill more Dark Race and earn more Contribution Points?"

Everyone was taken aback.

Sleeping in the Wind asked, "Are there more Dark Goblins nearby?"

Qi Ji said calmly, "There probably aren't any nearby, but there are plenty over in Gloomy City."

What?

Gloomy City!

Everyone was shocked!

Could the lord be planning to attack the Dark Race's Main City directly?
