"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!"
More arrows were shot toward the direction of the screams.
A system prompt appeared in front of Cao Xing.
[Your territory mber: ng Lita has killed a Frost Goblin lv31, Fourth Rank Ordinary Creature, gained Experience Value: 1240]
[Your territory mber...]
...
In the blink of an eye, five ordinary Frost Goblins were killed on the spot.
The attacking goblins exclaid.
"Damn it, there are so many of these intruders!"
"Run! Go notify the King!"
Then, dense footsteps sounded from the forest.
Knowing they were no match, the goblins decisively fled.
Cao Xing ordered, "Sarah, Heli, finish them off."
"Swish! Swish!"
Two black shadows instantly darted out, turning into two black flashes.
Before long, goblin screams and several kill prompts were heard.
Cao Xing continued, "Victoria, put away the Mind Energy Shield."
The queen nodded slightly, retracting the Power of Mind Energy into her body.
After waiting a mont, the two assassins returned.
Sarah reported, "The mission is complete."
Cao Xing praised, "Well done, now we continue to advance, pushing straight to the Goblin Tribe area."
Everyone maintained their formation, advancing steadily forward.
They delved about five hundred ters further into the forest.
During this ti, they encountered multiple traps and ambushes laid by goblins.
But Cao Xing and the others easily neutralized them.
Despite the goblins laying nurous ambushes, they were useless against absolute power.
Heli whispered, "Lord, about a few hundred ters more to reach the Goblin Tribe."
Cao Xing nodded, "Alright."
...
...
anwhile, in the center of the forest.
There was an expansive valley.
This valley, surrounded by mountains, was defensible yet challenging to assault.
Below the mountain, there was a deep cavern entrance, ho to the Goblin Tribe.
Massive boulders were piled around the entrance.
Besides these boulders, a row of towering watchtowers was built around the entrance, with many goblin archers stationed atop them.
Furthermore, in front of the tribe’s entrance, the goblins dug out a large pond, filled with a thick green liquid that appeared highly nacing.
Only a single wooden bridge could cross it.
Inside the cave.
A large number of blue-skinned, ugly goblins gathered inside.
They wielded swords, spears, halberds, and torches, their eyes full of savagery.
The Goblin King sat on a stone chair.
Nearly two ters tall, draped in tattered war armor, wearing an iron helt covered with spikes, he exuded ferocity.
At this mont, a goblin scout rushed back hurriedly.
Breaking through the goblin crowd, he arrived beside the Goblin King and prostrated directly.
"King, a group of humans has invaded our territory!"
"There are over a hundred of them, the traps weren’t able to stop them!"
"The leading one is riding a mammoth, extrely powerful!"
The goblin quickly reported all the intel he gathered.
Hearing the last sentence, Liu Yang imdiately rose from his chair.
"Riding a mammoth?"
The goblins below nodded continuously.
Goblin Liu Yang, upon confirming the identity of the intruders, imdiately darkened his expression.
He seed to have understood sothing.
"So that’s it..."
"The assassin last night, you sent him, didn’t you?"
"So you already know my identity, and the Soul-Devouring Worm deep in the tribe..."
"Yet you still dare to lead people to attack my territory; is it confidence in your own strength or so other motive?"
Goblin Liu Yang’s eyes reflected contemplation.
He knew that a battle with Cao Xing was inevitable.
He just didn’t expect the opponent to move so quickly and decisively.
He was still probing his strength, but he already brought people to attack!
Below, other goblins heard the news of soone invading and imdiately showed a hint of panic in their eyes.
"More than a hundred people, have our actions already been exposed?"
"These humans are so powerful, could they be the advance troops of the King’s army?"
"Yeah, what if the Ice Crystal Kingdom has sent troops to besiege us, what should we do?"
"..."
Looking at the panicked goblins, Liu Yang’s expression remained calm. He waved his hand and said, "No need to panic."
"These people are not the advance troops of the king, but rather an otherworldly lord."
Upon hearing this, the other goblins imdiately showed a confused look.
"King, didn’t you say those otherworldly lords were very weak? How dare they bring people to attack our tribe?"
Goblin Liu Yang did not reply but instead looked at the scout, asking again, "How strong are those humans?"
To be honest, as a fellow survivor, Liu Yang only knew Cao Xing was very strong.
But how strong exactly, no one knew.
He was hiding it too well.
Although so survivors like Liu Yang had been researching Cao Xing, trying to figure out why he was so powerful and what abilities he possessed.
In fact, for him, survivors from District 17 even specifically opened a post for discussion.
But to this day, no survivor had ever seen him go all out.
Additionally, his developnt speed was way too fast.
Even if the survivors received intelligence, it would be from a few days ago.
The scout replied, "King, this group of humans is extrely powerful. The sub-human assassin who infiltrated our tribe last night is among them."
"Moreover, that assassin is not the strongest. I sensed several entities inside that are even more formidable than her!"
Hearing this, all goblins’ faces changed dramatically once again!
They experienced firsthand how troubleso that assassin was last night.
Despite being attacked by thousands of goblins, she managed with ease and even counter-killed many of them.
If not for the Soul-Devouring Worm releasing a terrifying spiritual attack, putting that assassin into a state of deternt, even their Goblin King could have been in danger!
And now it’s said, among those attacking them, there are entities even more scary than that assassin!
Not only did these goblins feel terrified, but even Goblin Liu Yang felt extrely surprised.
After all, in his perception, that assassin absolutely had war power above the fifth rank.
And now they’re telling them that Cao Xing’s team has several entities even stronger than her!
This directly stunned Goblin Liu Yang.
"Cao Xing... how did you manage to acquire so many fifth and sixth-tier strong individuals, no wonder you can always be first."
"How exactly did you achieve this?"
Feeling very puzzled internally.
But looking at the panic on other goblins’ faces, Liu Yang quickly cald down.
"No need to panic, even if they are powerful, there are only a little over a hundred of them."
"This is our ho turf, and we’ve prepared a lot of defenses here specifically for dealing with armies."
"Plus, we have the powerful Soul-Devouring Worm, these humans are completely nothing to worry about."
After finishing his words, a strange black crystal stone appeared in Liu Yang’s hand, into which he injected a bit of power.
In the next mont, a deep and eerie scream resounded from within the tribe.
"Ssss—"
The sound was like a shrill wail from Hell, sharp enough to pierce a human’s eardrum!
All goblins who heard this sound felt as if nurous needles were stabbing into their heads, clutching their heads in agony!
As Goblin Liu Yang’s black crystal stone emitted a strong black mist that enveloped all goblins.
They seed immune to the sound, and all goblins recovered from their painful state.
Seeing this, the goblins imdiately beca excited, "That’s right, we have our great king, and strong Soul-Devouring Worm, there’s absolutely no need to fear these humans!"
"They can’t even withstand the call of the Soul-Devouring Worm!"
"If they dare to co, let the Soul-Devouring Worm tear them apart."
The goblins’ morale instantly soared.
Liu Yang continued, "Now, send the order for all goblins to return to the tribe."
"And dismantle the bridge, then activate the Poison Pond."
"All archers, quickly get to your watchtower, prepare for battle."
"Other goblins, go to the warehouse and take out all iron stakes, place them by the Poison Pond, make sure they can’t breach our defenses."
Liu Yang issued orders one after another.
He paused for a mont and continued asking, "What about those catapults we looted last ti, and that Demon Bull Chariot?"
A goblin with an elderly appearance replied, "Great king, they’re all placed together with last ti’s spoils."
"Very well, bring them all out."
"Today, let’s make sure they co without leaving back!"
A trace of ferocity appeared in Liu Yang’s eyes!
Once finished speaking, a large number of goblins began to take action.
