Even goblins are dangerous in this other world!

Luo Xiu also wanted to try and see if he could defeat a second-tier goblin in his current form.

He felt there shouldn't be any problem, but after all, his skill point allocation system lacked a benchmark for comparison.

The sun was still high in the sky, at noon.

After eating something simple, the master and servant continued their journey deeper into the jungle.

The environment deep in the sunset jungle is completely different from the surrounding area.

The trees here are exceptionally lush and robust; many of them are so large that even Luo Xiu and Leila couldn't wrap their arms around them.

The dense foliage formed a barrier against the sunlight, and the twisted branches created a somewhat eerie atmosphere. Even though a few rays of sunlight could still scatter through the gaps in the leaves, they seemed to have completely lost the warmth that sunlight should have, lying crookedly on the ground.

Suddenly, Leila's erect ears twitched, and she immediately spoke in a low, alert voice:

"Master, there are roars not far ahead, and there's more than one."

The meaning of the roars coming from this place was obvious, and both master and servant's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Walk slowly and carefully."

Although he was eager to meet the goblins, Luo Xiu knew the nature of this world and decided to proceed with caution.

The master and servant cautiously made their way toward the sound.

Finally, after passing through a dense thicket of bushes, Luo Xiu and his companion spotted the source of the sound through a small patch of wood.

Houses built of stones that resemble ruins, scattered fires, rows of meat hung up, dried in the wind, and a simple wall surrounded by low triangular wooden stakes.

And there were goblins constantly growling inside the walls.

This is a small goblin settlement!

Luo Xiu was extremely excited.

He counted them carefully; there were sixteen goblins in total.

Two of them were noticeably larger, wearing armor that looked like it had been stolen from somewhere, wielding huge stone hammers, and their muscles bulging.

Luo Xiu examined the activation.

Sure enough, it was bathed in orange light.

These are two second-tier goblins.

"Leila, you wait here for me. This time I'll try to go by myself."

Luo Xiu's tone was somewhat eager.

He had been looking forward to a thrilling battle for a long time.

Seeing the worry in Leila's eyes, Luo Xiu smiled and pinched Leila's cheek:

"If Master can't beat me later, Leila, remember to come and save me."

Leila nodded vigorously upon hearing this:

"Master, be careful."

Luo Xiu nodded, his eyes filled with both anticipation and caution.

This was his first encounter with a second-tier goblin, and he was prepared for a truly realistic battle.

And the first step in the battle of realism is—

A sneak attack!!!

Luo Xiu rushed out from behind the bushes.

The two goblin guards standing at the door were so fast that they didn't even have time to react.

When one of them turned its head and saw Luo Xiu, Luo Xiu's figure in its horrified pupils had grown larger and larger, so large that Luo Xiu's fist was big enough to touch its head.

One punch!

The sound of bones shattering rang out, and blood splattered everywhere.

[Host has slain a goblin, points +2]

"Jah!!!"

The next moment, all the goblins in the settlement roared, their eyes filled with rage as they stared at the newly appeared enemy.

It roared and pounced on Luo Xiu.

Luo Xiu's attention was entirely focused on the two second-tier goblins.

For some reason, he felt that something was off.

Although the two goblins looked at him with anger, they seemed to be even more excited.

It felt like they knew themselves.

Chapter 26 "Powerful" Second-Tier Goblin

Although it felt a bit strange, Luo Xiu didn't have time to think about it further.

Seeing the horde of goblins charging towards him, he suddenly exerted force with his feet and kicked the nearest guard goblin.

It hit the goblin right in the chin.

With a crisp "snap",

That was the sound of the goblin's lower jaw colliding and shattering with its upper jaw.

The guard goblin was sent flying backward, landing heavily on the ground not far away.

Luo Xiu didn't check if it was still alive, since the notification sound in his ear wouldn't lie.

There are fourteen left.

But in the short time it took him to kick, the goblins pounced on him, baring their fangs and claws.

They swarmed towards Luo Xiu, leaping high into the air and biting at his arms, legs, and even neck.

This is the most common tactic used by goblin hordes. Even enemies several times stronger than them can be worn down if there are enough goblins.

Luo Xiu grabbed the heads of the two goblins that were biting at his neck with both hands and exerted force with both arms.

He clasped his hands together tightly.

Poof! !

With a power boost of 57, the heads of the two Tier 1 goblins exploded like two crisp watermelons, sending red and white matter flying everywhere.

The other goblins pounced and bit Luo Xiu's body.

In a short while, Luo Xiu had five goblins hanging from his body.

They cackled and hissed, a hint of smugness visible on their faces, as if they saw their enemies as lambs to the slaughter.

They never considered how their former comrades had died.

They lunged at Luo Xiu's body, but the scene of tearing flesh apart as he had imagined never happened.

It felt as if the teeth were encountering tremendous resistance and could not penetrate deep into Luo Xiu's skin.

Luo Xiu felt a slight stinging sensation on his body and silently made an assessment in his mind.

These Tier 1 goblins can hardly do any damage to me now, which means that there seem to be twelve enemies left.

But there were actually only two.

Luo Xiu casually ripped off a goblin that was biting his waist and snapped its neck. He then looked at the two goblins wielding huge stone hammers.

He was still bothered by the look in the eyes of those two second-tier goblins.

As Luo Xiu looked at the two second-tier goblins, they also looked at Luo Xiu at the same time.

The excitement in his eyes became even more pronounced.

It kept making strange noises like "heh heh heh".

It's as if it's saying, "Finally caught you!"

Luo Xiu felt a chill run down his spine from that look.

This was also the first time he had ever seen a second-tier goblin. Could it be that second-tier goblins were much stronger than he had imagined?

Could these two goblins be waiting for me here on purpose?

How about we add a point?

He acted on his idea immediately, and to be on the safe side, Luo Xiu only kept ten points and added all the extra points.

It was exactly 12 o'clock.

Ten points in Strength, two points in Agility.

Strength has reached 67 points.

Feeling the power within his body increase once again, Luo Xiu felt somewhat at ease.

He took a deep breath and looked solemnly at the two second-tier goblins wielding stone hammers as they charged toward him.

Then, he took out the second-tier black broadsword he had bought from Liss from the magic pouch at his waist.

After so many days of continuous experimentation, the black broadsword is now his strongest offensive weapon.

This black broadsword was extremely heavy; with his strength amplified, slaying a first-tier goblin was as easy as making a cucumber salad.

You can freely choose to shred the cucumber or make smashed cucumber, depending on your preference.

However, this time the opponent is a second-tier goblin that we have never seen before, so we still cannot be careless.

Luo Xiu was highly focused at this moment, and he completely ignored the few remaining goblins on his body that couldn't bite off any flesh and were just left in a state of impotent rage.

His eyes were only on the two second-tier goblins rushing towards him.

He watched as the two second-tier goblins swung their stone hammers high, bringing them crashing down on him with immense pressure.

Luo Xiu's heart sank, and he used all the strength he could muster, slashing his black broadsword forcefully at the two enormous stone hammers!

boom! ! !

A thunderous crash resounded!
