There’s a stronghold the goblins built……
『Air Hammer.』
As I slammed the mass of air into the clubbed goblins, they were crushed to the ground and spat out their entrails. They all died instantly. The other goblin, which had approached while I was using my magic, was cut down before it could attack.
The battle is going well, there are hardly any goblins left. All I had to do was kill the remaining 2 and I was done. Just as I was about to slash at them, I felt a chill run down my spine.
I immediately took a large leap backwards, and a huge axe slammed into the ground where I had been standing.
A small crater appeared on the ground, and the adventurers escorting the cart let out a small scream as the pebbles and dirt scattered.
Annoyed by the sound of their voices, I looked at the enemy that had suddenly burst into the scene.
He had green skin, cloudy eyes, and a small horn on his forehead, all common characteristics of goblins, but he was over 2 meters tall and had tight muscles. I can also feel the magic inside him, so his body is probably stronger than it looks. He only wears a loincloth, but it’s a sign that his skin is so hard that he doesn’t need armor.
I had an idea about the existence of this goblin-like monster.
「Goblin Berserker!」
This is the name given to the advanced species.
Goblins are a strictly hierarchical society. They are classified into 3 tiers, starting with the lowest tier, the “Normal”, then the “Elite”, and finally the “King”, with each tier having its own detailed classification. The goblins with clubs and rusty swords are called the normal type or soldiers.
If the goblin you meet is a normal type, don’t worry about it, but if it’s a “Goblin Magician”, “Goblin Knight”, or “Goblin Lord”, you have to be too careful. In the worst case scenario, they could be leading thousands of goblins, not to mention their increased strength on their own.
They are so dangerous that in the past, a city was overrun by goblins, and the men were used as food and the women as nurseries. When goblins of the elite type or higher appear, even the Nobility will not underestimate them.
The ［Goblin Berserker］ in front of me right now is a type that specializes in combat ability, and is ranked high in the “Elite” hierarchy. Because I like to act solo, it’s a category that is relatively easy to fight and I can beat it and I’m not impatient … but there was a big problem.
「There’s a stronghold built by a king-type goblin……」
If there is a “Berserker” species in a group of goblins, there are often goblins of the “King” hierarchy nearby. Perhaps there is a ［Goblin Lord］ leading the goblins with intense charisma.
It looks like I’ve got some work to do before I can investigate the dungeon. Considering their fertility, we are beginning to see a future where Yang will be destroyed if left unchecked.
While avoiding the goblin berserker’s attack, I was still wondering what action I should take.
