After 24 hours of cooldown, Du You’s Instant Summoning was finally available for use. Without wasting any time, he began the summoning right there, taking advantage of this safe opportunity. What could be summoned this time? Du You wondered as a summoning array emerged before his eyes. When the glow faded, Du You could clearly see what was inside. "If I’m not mistaken, this should be a Land Dog." Indeed, it was a small Land Dog in front of him. It appeared to be a juvenile. Seeing Du You, the small Land Dog ran up to him, rubbing against his legs affectionately, which somehow made Du You feel downhearted. "My luck can’t be this bad...this is really a Land Dog. Should I be rejoicing that my luck was good last time, getting a flying pet, or grumbling about my bad luck this time?" Du You thought over it, deciding it didn’t matter as he could continue summoning after one day. Opening the panel, Du You saw the information of this summoned creature. Summoned Creature: Mutated Pastoral Dog, Level 1, Tracking Trait. "Well, even the panel recognizes your Land Dog status, and you’re a mutated one at level 1." The puppy was running and circling around Du You’s legs; it looked no different from the Land Dogs Du You remembered. "You have a Tracking Trait. Well then, help me find the goblins around here." Although it was a Land Dog, it was a summoned creature and was connected with Du You. Thus, it could understand Du You’s words. Sensing his command, the small Land Dog instantly pricked up its ears. After sniffing around, it trotted off in a certain direction. Du You was taken aback. Could this creature actually locate the goblins? Or does it even know what a goblin is? What Du You didn’t realize was that the small Land Dog had already sensed his thoughts. In this forest, aside from Du You, there was only one type of powerful presence in large amounts. Being a Magical Beast, not an actual Land Dog, the puppy could naturally sense that these were the creatures his master was searching for. Du You followed behind the small Land Dog, and with a wave of his hand, he released the Thunderhawk as well. "You soar above, keep an eye on the ground below." Well, he now had a hawk and a dog. With their company, he seemed somewhat like a prodigal young master. However, what young master would lead his dog through the forest? He guessed he’s the only one. Shaking his head, Du You hastily caught up. After an unknown amount of time, the little Land Dog turned back to him, waving its paw in total silence. It was acting like a well-trained hunting dog. Upon getting close to the small Land Dog and pushing apart the brush, Du You saw several green-skinned creatures moving around. Its green skin, sharp teeth, and pointed ears all confirmed the creatures’ identities. Although they bore some differences from the game characters, they were, without a doubt, Goblins. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝘯𝘦𝘵 "The two up ahead, who are holding large sticks, should be melee fighters. The three in the back carry wicker baskets filled with rocks - they must be ranged throwers. I wonder how much force they can muster. And the one at the very back with a bow and arrow is definite the most dangerous," Du You quickly analyzed. Six Goblins in all, whose strong physique, albeit short, likely packed a punch. It would be challenging for an average adult, let alone for him sans his Thunderhawk. "Xiaozi, listen. I’ll attack a stone-throwing Goblin, and you engage the one with the bow and arrow in the back. Then we’ll team up to kill the rest. Land Dog, you try to tangle with the two Goblin warriors. If you can’t handle it, just dodge." Having finished the directions, Du You cautiously approached. It’s only his second time using the Magic Missile, and he wasn’t very skilled yet. When he’d closed the distance to approximately thirty meters, he knew he couldn’t get any closer without being detected. Lifting his hand, Du You pointed at a stone-throwing Goblin and locked onto it using his sight. Without attracting any attention, a faint purple Magic Missile was formed instantly and shot forwards. The Magic Missile was incredibly fast; the Goblin didn’t even realize what happened before getting struck straight in the head. In an instant, its skull was shattered and its neck entirely snapped. A beast of this size would never be able to stand up to such force. Simultaneously, a cry rang out from above, and the Thunderhawk dove down quickly with its talon wrapped in a purple current - it had activated its Electric Current Coiling Skill. In an instant, the Thunderhawk’s speed increased considerably. It grabbed a Goblin’s head with one talon - the Goblin tried to resist but was paralyzed by the electric current. The sharp talon stabbed into the Goblin’s head like a knife, killing it instantly. Meanwhile, with another talon, the Thunderhawk simultaneously caught a stone-throwing Goblin beside it, swiftly dealing the fatal blow. "Well done," Du You couldn’t help uttering. The Thunderhawk had performed better than he had expected. Realizing they were under attack, the remaining Goblins were momentarily confused, unsure who to strike. In the pause, Du You’s second Magic Missile was already on its way. This time, the missile didn’t aim for the head but hit the chest. The stone-throwing Goblin was sent flying backwards, several ribs broken. While not dead yet, it wouldn’t survive much longer. The small Land Dog, having received the command, also dashed out at once. "Silly creature, I told you to hold them up, not to attack." However, before Du You could finish scolding, a yellow glow emerged from the small Land Dog. Biting down on a Goblin warrior’s leg, it surprisingly bit through the thick limb. Not waiting for the Goblin’s retaliation, the small Land Dog turned and bolted, leaving the Goblin warrior handicapped. After the surprise attack, only a single Goblin warrior was now running towards him. Even though his magic power was rebounding quickly, there was no need to waste it. Du You drew his longsword and faced the Goblin head-on. "Let me test your combat strength," he said. Against Du You, the Goblin looked like a child as Du You stabbed forward. The Goblin swung its wooden stick, successfully deflecting Du You’s sword. "Such great strength," Du You felt a numb sensation in his hand. This creature’s might wasn’t any lesser than his own. However, its maneuverability was lacking compared to Du You’s. With a swift sidestep, Du You evaded the Goblin’s charge. Swinging his longsword horizontally, he slashed across the Goblin warrior’s neck.
