Chapter 35: Instant Kill?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In less than a minute, the 70 Goblin Cavalry were all killed!

The ground ahead that was covered with the corpses of Goblin Cavalry and Hyenas was dyed a glaring dark red.

The Goblin General behind roared in dissatisfaction.

Immediately after, the Goblin Archer released a second volley of arrows. However, this was nothing to Zhang Xuan’s Skeleton Warrior.

Countless Skeleton Warriors endured the damage of the arrows and charged forward crazily. The white sea instantly swept through the Goblins’ defensive formation!

Although the remaining Goblins didn’t have their attributes deducted, they were completely unable to compete with the Skeleton Warriors.

The Goblin General also joined the battle with its saber. However, it was obvious that its attacks couldn’t hit the highly agile Skeleton Warrior at all. Soon, its health was depleted again.

At this moment, another formation flickered above its head. It had once again entered an invincible state!

In the distance, Zhang Xuan watched everything silently. Suddenly, a smile appeared on his lips.

“Finally found it.”

The Skeleton Archers who had been sent to explore a few intersections responded. They discovered a few Goblin Mages casting spells at the end of a hidden intersection.

[Elite Goblin Mage (Level 19)]

[HP: 3,500]

[Strength: 500]

[Defense: 180]

[Spirit: 700]

[Agility: 140]

[Skills: Death Revival, Goblin Progenitor’s Protection]

Looking at the skill introduction, it was obvious that these guys had given the Goblin General the ability to be reborn. No wonder the Goblin General was desperately protecting the other intersections!

As they were focused on casting spells, the Goblin Mages didn’t notice the appearance of the Skeleton Archers. All the Skeleton Archers charged up at the same time.

[Ding! Level 19 Elite Goblin Mage killed. Experience +2,000]

…

Five consecutive experience notifications sounded. All five Goblin Mages died suddenly. The Goblin General outside had lost its resurrection ability and was finally slashed to death by the Skeleton Warrior!

[Ding! Level 19 Elite Goblin General killed. Experience +2,000]

Moreover, as the Goblin General fell, the remaining Goblins stopped resisting like soldiers who had abandoned their armor!

Zhang Xuan had no pity for them. He wiped them out as quickly as possible.

After this round of battle, Zhang Xuan’s experience had increased quite a bit. Compared to the monsters outside, the elite monsters in the dungeon were still quite valuable.

[System announcement! The passage to the Goblin Palace is about to open.]

The other intersections began to close. Zhang Xuan hurriedly summoned the Skeleton Archers back. Then, a passageway that led directly to the underground appeared in front of him.

“Finally, we’ve reached the final stage of the novice dungeon.”

When he reached the end, Zhang Xuan saw the Goblin Palace that was actually surrounded by gold, silver, and jewelry.

At the front was a huge throne. Sitting on it was a Giant Goblin more than ten meters tall. It was still sleeping soundly and clearly didn’t know what was happening outside.

[Boss: Goblin King]

[Level: 20]

[HP: 400,000]

[Strength: 4500]

[Defense: 900]

[Agility: 103]

[Skills: Wrath of the King, Great Counterattack, Kingdom Guard]

[Boss characteristic: Uncontrollable, unaffected by debuff]

The standard Boss panel seemed to be much worse, but the Hidden Boss and the Dungeon Boss couldn’t be compared.

All the Skeleton Warriors appeared and quickly approached. At the same time, the five Skeleton Archers had also found the best position to charge their shots.

Zhang Xuan had learned about most Bosses from the academy’s system. The Goblin King in front of him had a total of 5 stages and would revive a total of 4 times.

The first stage purely depended on whether the damage was up to standard. If it couldn’t be killed within 5 minutes, its defense would double, and it would last until the fifth stage.

Swoosh!

Five powered-up arrows hit the Goblin King’s head, and a few large numbers appeared above its head!

[HP -70,000]

[HP -43,000]

…

In an instant, more than half of the Goblin King’s health was depleted. It opened its eyes and stood up angrily. Its terrifying roar spread throughout the entire palace!

However, just as it got up, the other Skeleton Warriors had already rushed up with the second wave of arrows. Another two large numbers of 70,000 damage appeared. Its health bar was completely emptied, and its huge body fell.

However, just as Zhang Xuan was about to welcome the second stage, the system notification appeared!

[Ding! Congratulations on killing the Level 20 Boss Goblin King. Experience +50,000]

[Congratulations on obtaining Goblin War Boots (Level 12 wearable)]

[Congratulations on obtaining the Goblin Technique Book (Level 10 wearable)]

[Congratulations on obtaining the Goblin King Ring (Level 15 wearable)]

…

Seeing the series of rewards that dropped from the Goblin King, Zhang Xuan was stunned. Didn’t they say that there were five stages?

He confirmed again and again that the Goblin King had really been killed!

…

“We’re almost done. Let’s try to clear the dungeon in an hour. Healer, pay attention to your position, and don’t let the Archers hit you.”

“You’d better take care of your damage output. You almost doubled the Goblin King’s defense every time. If we fail, it’ll be your fault!”

In front of the Goblin King novice dungeon, a party that was preparing to enter was bickering. This kind of situation wasn’t uncommon on other teams, so the others were used to it.

At this moment, a golden light flashed at the entrance of the dungeon, signaling that a team had successfully passed.

Everyone immediately cast curious and envious gazes over. There were even a few Priestesses who took the initiative to walk over.

Although there were dozens of teams present, only a small portion of them could clear the Goblin King novice dungeon. Most of them were forced to withdraw halfway through the battle. Of course, those who were stubborn died inside.

“Sigh, the treatment for clearing the level is indeed different. There are so many beautiful sisters waiting to be posted.”

“I’m so envious. When will I be able to pass it too?”

“But I haven’t seen a team enter the dungeon for almost two hours. How many guards will the Goblin King summon after such a long time?”

“No, I remember there was a support professional who entered the novice dungeon by himself. It couldn’t be him, right?”

“Don’t talk nonsense. How can a support professional solo battle the Goblin King? Have you forgotten how much HP that thing has? He’s probably already been smashed by the Giant Goblin.”

“Furthermore, other teams with high-level professions need half an hour to clear the novice dungeon. He’s only been in there for less than ten minutes. It’s obviously impossible, right?”

The golden light dissipated, and Zhang Xuan left the novice dungeon. When the surrounding class changers saw him, everyone fell silent.

Everyone’s faces were filled with shock. Zhang Xuan actually came out alone?!

He was a support professional!

The two Warriors who had mocked him earlier were so shocked that their jaws dropped. As a combat class, they had to farm for about an hour with their support professional, but this Level 12 support professional actually took 10 minutes to solo battle it?
