I gain permanent defense when attacked; even gods and demons can't hurt me.

The wildly popular online novel, "Permanent Defense Increased When Hit, Gods and Demons Can't Afford to Hit Me," is a heartfelt work by author Xiaopang, who aims to write 10,000 words a day. Available on Kele Novels.

However, it's not time to let their guard down yet. They went through a lot of trouble to kill one Goblin Royal Guard, and there are still three left!

Not far away.

Lin Yuan, who was being used as a punching bag by the Goblin King, took a moment to glance at the battle situation here.

Seeing that beautiful laser finish, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"good."

"It's starting to look promising."

If he has to feed them all the time, then the team can't be led.

Fortunately, these two rich kids not only have money, but also brains and guts.

This was largely thanks to the several tens of minutes of practice beforehand. If it had been when we first entered the instance, we probably would have been overwhelmed and destroyed by the monsters.

"Now that you've stabilized things on your side..."

"Then I should step up my efforts too."

Lin Yuan turned his head and looked at the Goblin King in front of him, who was still roaring furiously.

"Hey, big guy."

"Look, one of your underlings is already dead."

"roar!!"

Seeing his elite guards being defeated one by one, the Goblin King finally couldn't sit still any longer.

A hint of human annoyance flashed in its normally savage eyes.

"Useless! All of you are useless!"

With a roar, it abandoned the tough bone in front of it and leaped high into the air!

Like a mountain pressing down, it raised the still-dripping spiked club and smashed it down on Xia Chen and Ouyang Xue, who were in the midst of a fierce fight!

"Insects! Die!"

This strike was so powerful that it tore through the air with a loud bang.

"Holy crap?!"

Xia Chen was chopping away with great enthusiasm when suddenly he felt a darkness descend upon him.

Looking up, the enormous spiked club was already within reach!

The suffocating sense of oppression made the hairs on his body stand on end, and his heart instantly choked in his throat.

"It's over!"

At such close range and at such high speed, there was simply no time to dodge!

At this critical moment.

"Trying to harm my people?"

Lin Yuan's cold and mocking voice rang out.

"Did you ask me?"

【ridicule】!

"roar?!"

The Goblin King, who was in mid-air, suddenly froze.

Its spiked club, which was originally aimed at Xia Chen's head, was suddenly pulled back as if by an invisible hand!

Then, it traced a strange arc in the air and slammed hard into... Lin Yuan's shield!

Clang!

With a loud bang, Lin Yuan remained completely still.

"Huff...huff..."

Xia Chen plopped down on the ground, his back instantly soaked with cold sweat.

For a brief moment, he truly thought he was going to die here.

He looked at the towering figure in the distance, his eyes filled with gratitude and admiration.

"Brother Yuan...you are my god!"

Lin Yuan, however, had no time to pay him any attention.

He looked at the powerless and furious Goblin King before him, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"Heh, with me around, you won't lay a finger on my teammates!"

"What's wrong? You're out of energy?"

"That's it? Is this all the Goblin King's power is?"

Lin Yuan's verbal taunts, combined with his skill-based taunts, are extremely effective.

The Goblin King went completely mad, directly consuming a portion of his health to activate Bloodlust Berserk!

"roar!!!"

It roared to the sky, and a dense crimson light suddenly erupted from its body.

His already enormous body swelled up even more, his muscles bulging like rocks!

"die!!!"

The spiked club in its hand instantly transformed into a black whirlwind!

【Whirlwind Slash】!

Whoohoo! !

A terrifying storm of spiked clubs swept in, with dozens of attacks landing on Lin Yuan's shield every second.

If this were a regular shield warrior, let alone parrying, the shield would have been shredded long ago.

But Lin Yuan?

He watched the ferocious attack, but instead of panicking, he laughed even more heartily.

"Double attack power? Double attack speed?"

"Great! That's wonderful!"

"I'm afraid you won't die within 20 minutes!"

Lin Yuan immediately activated [Shield Defense].

[Consumes 5 mana; guarantees blocking of all physical attacks for 3 seconds!]

Even the BOSS's ultimate move, Whirlwind Slash, only produced clanging sounds when it hit him.

On the contrary, it was the Goblin King himself.

Because its attack speed has doubled, the frequency of reflected damage it receives has also doubled!

Furthermore, because it has activated Berserk, it will take 50% more damage!

-346!

[-519!] (Berserk damage increase)

-519!

……

Bright red numbers flooded the screen like a waterfall above it.

Its health bar was like a tap that had been turned on, dripping down in a torrent!

"This is what they call... reaping what you sow, and no one can escape it."

Meanwhile, Xia Chen, after her initial fear, was instantly filled with rage.

God knows how close that blow was to him; his heart was in his throat, about to jump out!

"Damn it, if I'm no match for your boss, am I no match for you guys?!"

The frustration of almost being ambushed just now has transformed into killing intent.

Xia Chen raised his greatsword and slashed directly at the heads of these goblin guards!

He was going to vent his anger on those goblin guards!

As mentioned before, the head is weaker in defense than other parts of the body, and it is more prone to critical hits.

And with only five minutes left...

It was not killed.

It was shot to death!

[Slay the Level 20 Goblin King (Silver Boss)!]

[Gained 10000 experience points, and received an additional 5000 for exceeding the level requirement!]

[Received: Several gold coins, Goblin King's Spiked Mace (Silver), Goblin King's Crystal Core (Silver)...]

As the BOSS fell, a massive surge of experience points instantly flooded into the three of them.

Xia Chen's level has been increased to LV15!

[Ouyang Xue's level has been increased to LV15!]

Xia Chen shouted excitedly, "Awesome! Level 15! My new skill is here!"

[Gained new skill: Vigorous Vigor (Passive)]

[Effect: No mana required, increases Cross Slash damage, and adds a bleeding shockwave to Mountain Crash!]

Ouyang Xue's beautiful eyes sparkled, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

[Gained new skill: Sniper Rifle (Active)]

[Effect: Consumes 25 mana, launches an ultra-long-range high-explosive armor-piercing projectile with fire attribute explosion and splash damage! Cooldown: 8 seconds]

Lin Yuan, although his level remained unchanged, fed all of his experience to the Guardian Barrier.

【Guardian Barrier (lv15)】

[Effect: 42% -> 45% shield value! Duration: 70 seconds!]

The shields are now thicker and last longer!

As the BOSS died, the entire secret realm began to tremble.

A notification sound rang in the ears of the three.

Congratulations on clearing "The Forgotten Goblin Vault"!

[Settling level completion rewards...]

In the center of the main hall, a huge golden treasure chest slowly rose up.

Lin Yuan stepped forward and opened the box.

Whoosh!

The dazzling golden light almost blinded the three of them!
