Goblin Heavy Dependence

Chapter 376 "Miracle" Triple

wheeze—

An ordinary brass coin, with no special features whatsoever, was tossed high into the air by Xia Nan as it left his fingertips.

A massive beam of light from the church dome bathed one half in an eerie pink hue, while the other half reflected the mournful crimson of the flames below.

With only one chance left to use it, the "epic" level item called the "Coin of Destiny," blessed by the goddess, once again proved its worth in a critical moment.

The image flips up and down, alternating between a long-haired woman with blurred facial features on the front and a cloak fluttering in the wind on the back.

A wisp of invisible and intangible power, barely perceptible even across the entire continent of Aifara, rose slowly from the coin at a speed akin to the transmission of a thought, ascending gently and connecting to a certain point in the void.

The vast, crystal-clear lake reflected a soft glow that seemed to come from nowhere, and the faint outline of a distant, illusory city could be seen. The air was filled with the sounds of cheerful music, cheers from the crowd, and celebratory fireworks.

On the grassy lakeside, there is a cozy little wooden house with wisps of smoke rising from the chimney, and the air is filled with the sweet aroma of honey bread and baked apples.

A tall, slender, and elegant lady was sitting in a rocking chair on the porch, intently looking at a thin book on her lap with its cover obscured.

Her flowing golden hair, like sunlight, swayed gently in the breeze. She seemed to be engrossed in what she was watching, a gentle yet slightly mysterious smile playing on her lips.

Perhaps it was a robin skimming across the lake in the distance that caught her attention. The blonde woman raised her head slightly, her gaze piercing through countless barriers of space, and looked toward a certain place.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

He held the book in his fingertips and turned a page.

"boom!"

It was the sound of Xia Nan's body being knocked away by the expanding pink light shield.

He tossed the [Coin of Fate], instantly triggering the [Iron Bones] ability that made him immune to Moen's punch, which would have been enough to severely injure him again.

However, the expanding light shield that followed was not within the range that this expertise could protect against.

Xia Nan was already prepared.

The primary objective, to soften the crystals on the surface of Moen's key skin areas using residual heat, has been achieved.

【Tidal Shaping】is activated the instant your feet leave the ground, making you feel as if you are submerged in water, slowing down the speed at which you are being pushed away.

This also allows Xia Nan to adjust his body's center of gravity in mid-air, using his powerful core strength to control his body and face the enemy head-on.

There were some problems with the plan.

Perhaps sensing the deadly threat posed by Xia Nan, Moen reacted exceptionally fiercely.

As the pink gemstones on her chest shimmered, the light shield emanating from them was noticeably more powerful and faster than before.

Ding--

The straight sword [Emberfall] in his hand was pushed away almost against the surface of the light shield, and the powerful impact almost caused the hilt to slip from his hand.

This prevented Xia Nan from gripping the sword hilt again and pushing the blade towards that fatal spot the moment the light shield retracted.

You only get one chance.

The interval between the expansion and contraction of the light shield is extremely short. If Xia Nan misses it, all the price he paid for it will be in vain.

The brain is working at high speed.

Time and space seemed to freeze at this moment.

The copper coins, tossed high into the air, reached the very top.

The image is of a long-haired woman with a blurred face, facing upwards, with a fleeting silvery-white sheen on the surface of the pattern.

Xia Nan, suspended in mid-air, was slowly being knocked away by the [Tidal Shaping] effect.

But perhaps due to the powerful impact he had just received, the drawstring of his waist pouch had been opened at some point, and the contents inside had spilled out.

A perfectly round, bright orange mandarin orange, a gift from that kind young woman from the citrus orchard, is now free from the constraints of my waist bag and pocket.

With an extremely small probability, it first collided with the healing potion that had also been removed from its pouch, causing the crystal-clear liquid in the glass bottle to sway and shimmer, while the angle at which the orange flew also changed slightly.

Then it collides with the three oil bombs directly in front of it. The small force generated is not enough to trigger an explosion, but it is enough to change the angle at which the mandarin orange flies out a few more times.

Finally, it gently bumped into the silver-chained pearl pocket watch that the generous merchant, Horako, had given it to Xia Nan before the mission began. As the tangerine spun and tumbled in mid-air, finally arriving beside Xia Nan's left hand, the sound of the orange peel hitting the watch face seemed to be a sudden reminder, attracting the young adventurer's attention.

A sudden inspiration flashed through my mind.

Time, frozen in time, begins to flow again.

Xia Nan did not forcefully resist the recoil from the hilt of the sword in his right hand, but instead let go of it, allowing the gray-black straight sword to slip from his grasp.

At the same time, he manipulated gravity with his left hand to tightly grasp the mandarin orange right next to him.

Arms bent, muscles bulging and exerting force, mind flowing to unleash combat techniques.

With keen perception and anticipation, he threw the tangerine in his hand at the enemy in front of him at the critical moment.

Sparks and ashes swirled and drifted in the air, carried by the air currents created by the oranges.

The mandarin oranges that had left Xia Nan's palm had their peels coated with a highly concentrated ochre-red sheen.

Just like when he smashed the orc's skull with a single punch, [Gravity Etching] doesn't necessarily require swinging a sword to use.

Throwing objects are also acceptable.

Seizing the most precise moment, the Honey Tangerine, enveloped in ochre light, retreated into the pastel gem within the light shield, just before Pastor Morn could expand outwards, all while the shield was stunned and astonished.

It spun around and gently touched his neck, which had softened due to the erosion of the remaining fire.

"Boom!!!"

It's like a small firework exploding in the air.

With the mandarin orange as its core, the force field energy suddenly bursts forth!

The remaining crystalline particles on the skin's surface were instantly destroyed, exposing the fragile flesh and cartilage beneath.

It felt like being bitten from the side by an invisible giant mouth.

As the ochre energy dissipated into light fragments, most of Moen's neck and a small part of his head were also taken away.

As for Xia Nan, once he exerted force with his left hand and threw the tangerine, he no longer cared whether it would hit the opponent as he expected, or whether [Gravity Etching] could kill the enemy in one blow.

His attention was entirely focused on the silver ring on the ring finger of his right hand.

As a backup plan in case the plan fails, and also to maximize the effectiveness of the [Fate Coin].

After the [Coin of Destiny] had already triggered [Iron Bones] for him and delivered the Honey Tangerine to his hand.

Xia Nan wanted to make one last move before the coin completely landed.

With a slight thought, spiritual power touches the [Dream Corridor]:
"warn!"

"Key missing! Please enter the dynamic password manually!"

Just like before, he closed his eyes and felt the randomly changing characters that appeared in his mind, his thoughts randomly clicking on them.

Jingle Bell--

The brass coin, under the influence of gravity, flipped and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Not far ahead, a mutilated corpse, its head blasted off and blood gushing out, slowly collapsed to the ground.

Xia Nan's feet touched the ground, and at the same time, he pressed the last character in his mind.

A "miracle" from the goddess of fortune... triggered, triggered again, and triggered once more.

"Ding!"

Password verification successful!

"[Remaining Energy]: 9.27%...Sufficient!"

"Activating [Dreamweaver Corridor - Neural Navigation Terminal]..."

"Welcome, Dream Weaver!"

　None!
