Chapter 72 The Maze (Part Two)

With a wide nose, small eyes, pointed ears, and a receding forehead, they look very much like ordinary goblins, but they are more than twice as tall and look stronger than human warriors, like bear-men wearing bear skins.

Unlike the bald heads of ordinary goblins, these large goblins have a layer of rough brown or yellow fur on their skin, similar to that of a brown bear, making them look like some kind of large goblin-like creature.

It's somewhat like the goblin bear mentioned in the book.

"Is that a bear goblin?" Lynn asked in a low voice to the cloth behind him.

"Your Excellency, they are the bear goblins, a group of greedy and brutal creatures," Bu said respectfully.

"Bear goblin," Lynn recalled the description of this creature in his mind.

They are a subspecies of goblins, belonging to the goblin-like creature category. Robust and cunning, these seemingly imposing bear goblins excel at stealth and ambush, often choosing professions related to assassins and killers. Weaker bear goblins tend to hunt in packs.

However, powerful individual bear goblins often prefer to hunt alone.

Therefore, a simple way to determine the strength of a bear goblin is to see if there are any companions around them.

If you encounter a lone goblin in the wild without any companions, it's definitely a formidable individual capable of surviving and hunting alone. Wild goblins are generally skilled at climbing, hiding, listening, stealth, searching, and scouting, and they often resort to any means necessary when ambushing enemies.

Of course, a small number of bear goblins also like to enslave their fellow goblins and form tribes with them. These inherently brutal creatures have a strong desire for aggression.

Lynn realized something: he was standing in the passageway, and logically, the goblins in the main hall could see him as soon as they turned their heads.

But they never turned their heads this way from beginning to end.

It seems these goblin bears haven't noticed them at all.

林恩细细清数，1、2、3、4、5、6。

There are a total of 6 bear goblins.

They had some injuries, probably caused by the wizard apprentices who had just come in.

Lynn squinted and picked up his staff.

Begin preparing the spell.

Since the goblins can't find us in this location, let's cast a first-level spell on them first.

Both the Fear spell and the Earth Ring spell are quite good.

One area was gripped by fear, the other by confinement.

To deal with the goblin's cowardly and bullying nature, the Fear spell would be better.

The power of spells like the Fear spell depends on two factors: the strength of the recipient's mental strength and the recipient's personality.

A semi-transparent black ripple gradually condensed at the tip of the staff.

Bu quietly raised his head, looking with awe at the power gathering at the tip of Lynn's staff.

The messenger was actually a great spellcaster; he had mistaken him for a berserker.

"The Art of Fear".

The trembling, black, transparent ripples spread outwards.

In the enclosed environment of the hall, ripples overlapped and echoed continuously.

The bear goblins who had been wandering around the hall trembled, their legs quivering as they instinctively tried to run away, but their weak legs caused them to kneel on the ground.

"Secondary Fireball" - A fierce fireball slammed into the goblin.

The goblin's tough fur exploded in an instant, sparks flew everywhere, and scalding flames spread along the fur.

The bear goblin cried out in pain, its small, yellowish-white eyes widening in terror as it glanced in Lynn's direction. Then, it crawled frantically on all fours, trying to lie down and extinguish the flames, but the fire on its body was too intense and it couldn't be put out no matter what it did.

He survived a minor fireball? This goblin is really tough.

Lynn narrowed his eyes. This time, instead of using a minor fireball, he used a poison gas spray.

The toxic green fog spread and quickly covered the entire sealed room.

Then footsteps came from behind, and another wizard apprentice walked in.

Lynn turned around and saw that the wizard apprentice behind him was dressed as a commoner wizard.

The commoner wizard probably recognized Lynn. He shuddered and forced a stiff smile. "I didn't know you were in there. I thought no one was there." Then he turned and left.

After watching him leave, Lynn turned and cast the spell he had been chanting on the goblin bear.

Dark energy rays.

A black beam of light struck the nearest goblin.

The bear goblin shuddered, its face visibly turning ashen. Dark energy had invaded its body; for a normal creature, such a concentrated amount of dark energy entering the body in an instant would have some negative effects.

"But this guy is tough and doesn't seem to be very dangerous." Lynn looked thoughtfully at the trembling bear goblin.

It seems that the power of zero-ring spells is still a bit lacking. They are quite effective against ordinary people and wizard apprentices with poor physical strength, but they are not so effective against such tough and thick-skinned units.

Lynn continued preparing his spells; with his current mental strength and the staff in hand, he could guarantee that he could cast five first-level spells in a short period of time.

With the addition of potions to restore mental energy, there's no need to be too stingy when casting first-level spells.

"Earth Ring Technique".

Lynn cast another first-level spell he had mastered, Earth Ring, on the goblins.

Golden chains coalesced in front of him, swaying and coiling nimbly in the air like snakes.

As soon as Lynn had a thought, the golden chains flew toward the goblins, piercing through them like a sharp sword before disappearing into the ground.

The ground trembled violently, the soil cracked open, and thick, transparent, earth-yellow chains, like shackles of the earth, firmly bound all the bear goblins that had been pierced through.

The goblins, who had been running around in panic because of the terror spell, stumbled and were trapped in place, as transparent, earth-yellow chains emerged from the ground.

Lynn compared Earth Ring with Fear, and from a control perspective, it seemed that Earth Ring was more effective than Fear.

However, in addition to the preparation time required for casting, the Earth Ring spell also has a casting process.

If others can run fast, they can dodge it, but the process of casting the Fear spell is faster.

After the goblins were bound, Lynn summoned two iron goblins and Lauren from the alchemy lab. They worked with Lynn to eliminate all the goblins.

After dealing with all the goblins, Lynn had an iron worm guard the entrance.

There were no other exits from here, so Lynn first put all the bear goblin corpses into his spatial ring.

Having grown accustomed to a life of poverty, they couldn't bear to waste even a single ingredient.

Suddenly, a circular pit collapsed in the middle of the hall. Shortly afterward, the pit rose again, revealing a heavy wooden chest in the open space in the middle of the hall.

This should be the resource that the Harlem Wizard mentioned as a reward for conquering the monster's lair.

Lynn pondered.

Looking at the large wooden box, which was about two meters long and one meter wide and high, Lynn's heart fluttered slightly, wondering what was inside.

Approach and open the box.

Inside the large box were two green-skinned, long-eared, and thin-looking goblins. The goblins were staring at Lynn with wide, teary eyes, their heads tilted back, their eyes filled with tears.

Lynn's smile froze instantly.

I went through all that trouble to kill six bear goblins, and the reward is two little goblins?

"Pull them out," Lynn said to Bu.

Cloth pulled the two goblins out and untied the ropes binding them.

"Thank you, Divine Messenger, for saving us. We are willing to give everything for you." After being untied, the two goblins lay on the ground and kissed Lynn's boots.

"Hmm." Lynn replied calmly.

He looked at the bottom of the box, where there were four small items: two iron tokens, a parchment scroll, and a thin piece of paper.

Pick up these four items.

The paper listed the effects of the other three items, and on the back was a complex symbol with the number 50 written on it.

The parchment scroll is the training manual for the extraordinary professional goblin wanderer.

The other two tokens are two Goblin Engineer Heritage Tokens, both of which are single-use items. They contain the amount of knowledge that a standard junior goblin engineer can possess. Any creature with goblin blood can gradually absorb all the knowledge in the heritage token within ten days.

In other words, as long as I have enough Legacy Tokens and goblins, I can acquire a large number of goblin engineers in a short period of time? Although they are only junior goblin engineers, many basic processes can be handled by them, and these junior goblin engineers can be further trained.

For any wizarding apprentice, this would be an irresistible help. Lynn toyed with the token in his hand, lost in thought.

He seemed to have figured out how to play the maze.

Currently, these goblins are not very valuable, but if a lot of heritage tokens can be obtained, these goblins might become a considerable force.

There will be another chapter later.
