The electric current exploded instantly, and half of the goblins holding iron weaponry were electrocuted on the spot. Du You hadn’t anticipated this scenario. However, it made the Thunderbolt Golden Eagle even more effective. Taking advantage of these paralyzed goblins, the Thunderbolt Golden Eagle efficiently harvested two goblin lives. Surprised by the sudden attack, these goblins were momentarily dazed. Meanwhile, Du You wasn’t idle; he dispatched one with two arrows, and another with two Magic Missiles. In an instant, half of the ten sword-wielding goblins were annihilated. "Damn basic skills." New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✦𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✦𝓷𝓮𝓽 Du You grumbled with discontent. There was no helping it; the power of the Magic Missile skill was really disappointing. There was no room for its advancement. The skill level was constant and it couldn’t be upgraded. Being an early transitional skill, even his own strength enhancement couldn’t add to it. The power of the current Magic Missile was exactly the same as when he had first obtained it, without a hint of improvement. Normally, he could heavily wound a regular goblin or instantly kill it if aimed at its head. But to deal with these sword-wielding goblins, unless he targeted the head, a single attack could only injure them, not completely deprive them of their combat abilities. After two attacks, they might not die but would definitely lose their ability to fight. This basic skill was truly useless. Du You even began to doubt if he could display better combat power by wielding a sword than by using this feeble Magic Missile. However, faced with the Kitchen Knife Team, Du You wouldn’t rush over recklessly. He knew he couldn’t handle all of them by himself. Yet, with the aid of the Thunderbolt Golden Eagle’s current, the kills were still accomplished smoothly. The goblin warrior tried to attack Xiaozi, but it was much quicker and easily avoided the assault. Du You had also begun to see the benefits of a higher star rating. Although Xiaozi hadn’t reached level 2, its strength was indeed greater than that of the goblin warrior, and this was even without accounting for its own skills. With Xiaozi drawing the goblin warrior’s attention, Du You had it occupy the creature while he used Magic Missiles and arrows from behind to clean up the rest. This time, he didn’t even release the bear. The whole process was risk-free. When the last sword-wielding goblin was taken out, the goblin warrior was already looking significantly battered. "Let’s see how good your resistance is," Du You fired a Magic Missile over. The goblin warrior, paralyzed by the current, had no way to dodge and could only watch as the Magic Missile hit him. The Magic Missile wasn’t very powerful, but the goblin warrior wasn’t doing much better. The Magic Missile, upon striking the warrior’s torso, had left a prominent bruise and broken a rib. "A warrior truly is a warrior, just one rank higher, and this Magic Missile is pretty much useless." While muttering to himself, Du You launched another Magic Missile interspersed with an arrow. The goblin warrior let out an angry roar and rushed toward Du You wielding his long sword. However, in doing so, he overlooked the Thunderbolt Golden Eagle not far from him. Xiaozi quickly swooped in, pecking at the back of the goblin warrior’s neck, immediately ripping open a bloody wound. The goblin warrior screamed and instinctively spun around to retaliate, but forgot that there was another enemy attacking from a distance. Consequently, two more arrows landed on him. His head was also struck by a Magic Missile, immediately leaving him dazed. Seizing the chance when the goblin warrior was stunned, Xiaozi viciously clung to the goblin warrior’s head. The continuous surge of electricity brutally electrocuted the goblin warrior to death. "His skull is really thick." Looking at the unshattered skull of the goblin warrior, Du You reflected that a regular goblin’s skull would have been crushed. The overall increase after leveling up was truly significant. Upon the demise of the goblin warrior, a white light ball fell out. Du You walked over and picked it up. "Haha, I wonder what’s inside the goblin warrior’s light ball." Without giving it much thought, Du You opened it right away. A few Crystal Coins fell out, and a long, sword-like object also appeared. Du You’s eyes lit up. It was a long sword. The sword was much more robust than the one he had been using, similar in length, but broader on both ends. Shimmering with a cold light, it was clearly very sharp. Warrior’s Sword: Sharpness 6, White. The evaluation was straightforward, but this ’White’ rating was higher than the longbow he had been using. The key point was that this was a genuine piece of equipment that he could take with him to other worlds. The things he scavenged, however, could only be used in this world and would be useless once he left. Du You unsheathed his long sword and gave it a thought before clashing it against the Warrior’s Sword. As a result, his own sword was sliced open instantly and the cut was exceptionally smooth. "No matter how useless it is, it’s still made of fine steel. This level of sharpness cannot be achieved merely by material quality," Du You mused. Du You was well aware that even an alloy sword could not have sliced his own sword so easily. This was definitely the result of magic enhancement, a quality that couldn’t be achieved just by relying on material. Nevertheless, Du You was jubilant as he equipped it right away. This was the first piece of equipment he had acquired. "I heard that equipment is quite rare for Awakeners. This sword is rated ’White,’ it should be quite valuable. I wonder how much it’s worth," Du You casually tossed away the long sword he had been using. As an Awakener, as long as the items he carried weren’t traded to others, they couldn’t be used even if stolen. This was a special rule. Du You didn’t know exactly how this rule worked, but as long as it was beneficial to him, it was fine. "Well, next it’s time to take a break. Wait, what’s happening?" Just as Du You prepared to order Xiaozi to search for a rest spot from the sky, he suddenly noticed another team leaving the goblin tribe and heading in his direction. Could it be that they were here for a specific reason? An idea struck Du You. "No matter, let’s rest later tonight. It’ll be good to take out more of them. If an entire goblin tribe is exterminated, the rewards would be even greater." Du You muttered to himself, then quickly cleared away the bodies on ground. By clearing, he meant dragging the bodies away. As for the signs of fighting and the bloodstains, he didn’t bother about them. Anyway, the goblins wouldn’t notice them.
