Chapter 75: Chapter 67: Resurrection? Or Something Else?
Fang Xiu hadn’t expected this.
This Demon Beast didn’t just have Grass Type Skills, but Ice Element Skills as well.
He originally thought these things were just ordinary Demon Beasts.
Even if they had already reached Level 30.
He thought there shouldn’t be any difference from normal Demon Beasts.
But now, it seemed there were some differences after all.
These beings were more human-like than Demon Beasts.
’This guy actually knew how to use vines to make Kajimi speed up, then hit her with an Ice Element Skill the moment she got close?’
The moment Fang Xiu saw the Level 30 goblin, he understood.
This goblin had a bit of intelligence.
But not much.
After all...
"Chain Whip!"
"Rotating Storm!"
Kajimi’s strength was leagues above it.
It had actually let Kajimi get into close range.
That was simply courting death.
In an instant, the chains bound the Level 30 goblin’s hands.
It interrupted the Ice Element Skill it was gathering.
Immediately after, Kajimi, who was already in mid-air, began to spin at high speed, transforming into a whirling tornado and attacking the goblin.
Her speed was incredible.
The goblin wanted to struggle, but the chains held it fast.
"Ah!"
The Level 30-something goblin had no way to break free from the chains and could only roar helplessly.
But it... was useless.
When the Rotating Storm descended upon the goblin’s body...
...it engulfed the goblin in a mere instant.
"AHHH!!!"
A series of wretched screams echoed from within the Rotating Storm.
It made Fang Xiu’s scalp tingle.
After all, this goblin was different from other Demon Beasts.
Whether it was its form or its cries, the goblin was more human-like.
Right now, as Fang Xiu watched, it was as if he were watching a person get shredded by Wind Blades.
The scene was brutally bloody.
"AHHH!!!"
Hearing the screams, the slow-to-react Level 15 goblins finally snapped out of it.
They shrieked and charged toward Kajimi.
"Netherworld Thunder Fall!"
At this moment, Fang Xiu activated his Skill.
Dark clouds gathered, followed by the might of a thousand thunderbolts.
Countless black bolts of lightning...
...zapped the Level 15 goblins on the ground, charring them black.
’These little guys are quite afraid of electricity!’
Fang Xiu watched the goblins twitching on the ground and smiled.
He hadn’t expected the goblins’ Defense to be even worse than he’d imagined.
Of course, they were also much weaker than other Demon Beasts.
Even other Level 15 Demon Beasts wouldn’t have such low Defense Power.
Fang Xiu saw that three goblins had just tried to withstand a single bolt of lightning, and... they collapsed, twitching on the ground.
To say nothing of the goblins that tried to face the Netherworld Thunder Fall on their own.
A few were already smoking.
They looked like they were about to be cooked through.
After using Netherworld Thunder Fall so many times, this was the first time Fang Xiu felt it was particularly useful.
"AHHH!!!"
However, the Thunder was indiscriminate, and sometimes a goblin would manage to escape.
They would then dash toward Kajimi’s Rotating Storm.
And then... there was no "and then."
The Rotating Storm was even more powerful than Fang Xiu’s current Netherworld Thunder Fall.
Even the Level 30 goblin was screaming incessantly inside it.
These Level 15 ones that went in probably wouldn’t scream incessantly. They would let out a single cry, and then they’d be gone.
After all, these goblins couldn’t even withstand two Wind Blades.
More and more goblins charged out.
But more and more goblins were either struck dead by lightning or shredded by the Wind Blades.
The least gruesome fate was being assassinated by Fang Xiu’s dagger.
Soon, as the goblins fell one by one...
...the ground was littered with goblin corpses.
’There are so many of these guys!’
Fang Xiu shook his head helplessly.
Judging by the number, there must have been over five hundred goblins.
A horde of Demon Beasts of this size, even at Level 15, could cause a major disaster if they ever got out of this Seventh Gate World.
Looking at the goblin corpses before him, Fang Xiu felt a little emotional.
Back when the Spiritual Energy Revival had just begun in this world...
...back when no one had gone through their Awakening...
...even these little Level 15 goblins could have caused an immense disaster.
But now, after humanity’s Awakening, these goblins were no longer considered a threat.
In the eyes of ordinary people, however, they were still terrifying creatures.
"Master, the Level 30 Demon Beast has been killed!"
Kajimi landed beside Fang Xiu.
Not far away, the goblin lay in a pool of blood.
"Mm, let’s go take a look."
Fang Xiu nodded.
That Level 30 goblin with Skills should be an Elite Level one.
But because this was reality and not an online game...
...Fang Xiu wasn’t sure if the items dropped by this Level 30 goblin would be the same.
Or if they would be higher-grade.
Just then, Fang Xiu saw a flash of light appear on the Level 30 goblin’s body.
Then, the light began to connect to the other goblin corpses.
’What is this?’
Fang Xiu had no idea what it meant.
But he wasn’t worried. At least the light seemed harmless.
Even if it could resurrect these goblins, Fang Xiu would just kill them all over again!
"The Level 30 Demon Beast seems to be absorbing the Energy from the other Demon Beasts."
Kajimi was quite sensitive to these things.
She sensed it in an instant.
"Just absorbing Energy? Not Life Force?"
Fang Xiu was a bit puzzled.
The Level 30 goblin was already dead.
If it was just absorbing Energy, it shouldn’t be able to revive.
But if it was Life Force, perhaps it could.
"No, it’s just Energy!"
Kajimi shook her head.
Hearing this, Fang Xiu nodded. "If it’s only Energy, then let’s just leave it and see what happens."
"Okay!"
Kajimi nodded.
But she was already prepared. If that thing got up again, Kajimi would strike without hesitation.
After all, it had absorbed the Energy of so many Little Demon Beasts.
If this thing really came back to life, its strength would be immense.
It could at least stack up to Level 50.
Of course, that probably wasn’t the case.
But Kajimi needed to remain vigilant, otherwise it would be too late.
And just then, Fang Xiu noticed that among the other goblin corpses connected to the Level 30 Demon Beast...
...several were not connected!
"Master, look!"
Just then, Kajimi also discovered that among the Demon Beasts on the ground, several were not enveloped by the light.
"Those must be the ones that aren’t dead yet!"
Fang Xiu took a look and drew his Poison Scorpion Dagger.
He walked toward one of the goblins.
Then, he stabbed it.
SHLICK!
The light instantly enveloped it.
The finishing blow was a success!
Fang Xiu didn’t know why the Level 30 goblin was absorbing Energy.
But he had a vague feeling that it wasn’t absorbing Energy to resurrect itself.
Instead, it had something to do with the so-called treasure.
Since he was here to hunt for treasure, and he didn’t know what the treasure here was...
...he could only rely on his own judgment.
"Kajimi, kill all the others that are still alive!"
Fang Xiu believed his judgment was correct.
After all, if it was just for resurrection, then a few unkilled goblins...
...wouldn’t have mattered.
It wouldn’t make much of a difference.
"Yes!"
Kajimi nodded slightly, the wings on her back vibrated, and she shot into the sky.
Her speed was incredible.
Kajimi looked around in the air, and upon spotting a living goblin, she would dive, appearing right in front of it and finishing it in an instant.
Meanwhile, Fang Xiu used the light as a guide. Any goblin not connected by it, even if it was missing all Four limbs, must still be alive.
He delivered the finishing blows.
After all, it was possible these goblins had just fainted from the pain.
"Ah!"
Just then, Fang Xiu heard a sound.
He looked in the direction it came from.
And saw a goblin not far away.
It wasn’t enveloped by the light.
But this particular goblin was missing its lower body.
Yet it was still crawling on the ground, disabled but strong-willed.
"Your actions are truly moving!"
Fang Xiu walked up to the goblin and sighed with admiration.
This goblin’s Life Force was quite strong.
After all, the goblin before him had clearly been sliced in half by Kajimi’s Wind Blade.
The cut was very clean.
But even so, the goblin showed no sign of giving up.
It was just struggling toward...
...a female goblin.
A lecherous smile was even on its face.
Its hands were waving excitedly.
Fang Xiu was exasperated.
He walked straight to the goblin’s side.
And, meeting its resentful gaze, plunged his dagger straight into its throat.
Immediately, a green light enveloped its corpse.
Then, Fang Xiu saw the green light on the Level 30 elite goblin grow brighter and brighter.
At a certain point, after the green light reached its peak intensity...
...Fang Xiu saw the green light completely envelop the entire goblin.
’What’s going to happen next?’
Fang Xiu watched with curiosity.
On the ground, all the goblins were now enveloped in light.
Fang Xiu didn’t know what would happen next; he could only wait.
Kajimi also landed beside Fang Xiu.
She was waiting, too.
If the Demon Beast revived again, she would attack without hesitation.
After the green light reached its absolute brightest, it began to slowly dim.
As the green light faded completely, Fang Xiu finally got a clear look at what was inside.
The goblin’s corpse had disappeared.
In its place was a bead glowing with green light.
’What is this thing?’
Fang Xiu was curious and walked over.
After a moment’s hesitation, he reached out and picked up the green bead!
