Journey to the Witch World

Chapter 165 Goblin

It was approaching dusk, and the sun was setting.

When the last ray of afterglow in the sky disappeared, the dark forest fell into silence. Under the cover of night, it was like a giant beast that chose people to eat, hiding all dangers in the darkness.

"It seems that the scavenging crows in this area have really been cleared out!"

After patrolling for several hours without finding anything, Sean spread his palm helplessly.

Isaac's face became more and more ugly. Without saying a word, he looked at the dark forest in front of him. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. A ball of lightning exploded at his fingertips, turning into firefly-like light spots, jumping in the air.

"Do you want to continue patrolling? Sir Isaac." Tiffany asked in a low voice, suggesting: "Why don't we let everyone rest first and wait until dawn to continue the mission?"

Isaac frowned, as if he wanted to continue patrolling.

Since entering the dark forest, the task of clearing the scavenging crows has been going smoothly. According to Isaac's plan, everyone could finish everything and return to Thunder City in two more days.

But who knew that this afternoon, everyone's good luck seemed to have run out, and not even a shadow of a scavenging crow was seen.

"Let's set up camp and rest, Senior Isaac." At this time, Enzo suddenly spoke up and said in a deep voice: "After patrolling for an afternoon, everyone's physical strength has been almost exhausted. Let's repair our own conditions first."

"That's the only way." Isaac hesitated for a moment.

Then, everyone began to prepare to set up camp. Sean cleared a clearing in the forest, Tiffany used witchcraft to make some clean water, and Luna set up an iron pot, threw a few pieces of dried meat in it, and lit the dry branches below.

Gulp!

The burning dry branches made a crackling sound, and a ball of flame licked the bottom of the pot. As the broth began to boil gradually, an attractive fragrance also floated out, which made everyone's appetite excited.

However, at this moment.

Suddenly, a strange cry came from the forest, and a black shadow swept into the air. In the weak moonlight, gray feathers and a pair of scarlet eyes could be vaguely seen.

"Carrion crow!" Isaac stood up suddenly.

Under the night, the carrion crow flew through the woods and flew deeper into the forest.

"It seems that we are lucky and can clean up another crow's nest!" Sean's eyes flickered, the corners of his lips slightly raised, looking into the depths of the forest and said.

"Do you want to chase it?" Tiffany looked hesitant.

The direction where the carrion crow flew was deeper into the dark forest, which was a high-risk area, and it was night now, so the danger would increase.

"Let's wait until dawn." Enzo shook his head and said in a deep voice, "There is no need to take risks!"

"No!" Isaac shook his head and said decisively, "If we wait until dawn, we may not be able to find traces of carrion crows again, and we may miss the opportunity to clean up a crow's nest."

"Let's be careful, there will be no danger!"

Enzo's eyes flickered, but he stopped persuading.

After patrolling for an afternoon without any results, Isaac finally found the trace of the scavenger crow. He was unwilling to give up. As the captain of this mission, he directly ordered everyone to abandon the camp that had just been set up and chase into the depths of the forest.

"Chip, turn on the night vision function!" Enzo ordered in his heart.

Following Isaac's footsteps, everyone chased in the direction where the scavenger crow flew away. Sean drew out the cross sword, cut through the thorns and opened a path between the trees.

Not long after, several people had stepped into the depths of the dark forest.

"Wow! Wow!" On the top of an ancient tree, a gray-feathered scavenger crow landed on it. A pair of scarlet eyes seemed to flash a glimmer of agility, and then it spread its wings again and flew into the air.

Isaac frowned, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

But he didn't think much about it. Instead, he quickened his pace. Suddenly, a ball of lightning condensed in his hand, turned into a lightning, and suddenly projected it into the air.

Crack!

Amid the thunder, lightning cut through the night sky.

Gray feathers fell, and the scavenger crow struck by lightning, after making a piercing cry, fell from midair, and fell on a rock, motionless.

Isaac was delighted, and the corners of his lips rose slightly.

"Its nest should be nearby!" He stopped and looked at the crow's body not far away, and said.

"Why don't we patrol forward?" Sean's eyes flashed, and he suggested: "Since we are here anyway, if we can clean up a crow's nest, our mission target will be almost the same."

"Okay." Isaac nodded.

Luna immediately stepped forward and cut off the wings of the scavenger crow. Then, under the command of Isaac, everyone began to patrol the area ahead to find the scavenger crow's nest.

"Alert! Unknown creatures are found ahead."

Before he walked far, Enzo suddenly heard a burst of alarms in his mind. He suddenly looked forward with a stern look. Under the night vision function of the chip, a pair of bloodthirsty eyes were hidden in the bushes ahead.

"This is... goblin!" Enzo's pupils shrank, and he saw the creatures in the darkness clearly.

They were a group of short humanoid creatures, with dry and wrinkled skin, long ears like donkeys, and some tattered animal skins on their bodies. They looked extremely shabby, except for a pair of scarlet eyes, which shone with a bloodthirsty luster.

"Everyone stop!" Enzo spoke immediately, and everyone stopped.

"What's wrong, Enzo?" Isaac asked with a frown.

"There are at least a hundred goblins hiding in the bushes ahead!" Enzo said solemnly, "Something is wrong. We should leave here as soon as possible."

Sean's eyes flashed, and his thoughts changed.

"Goblins? How did you find them?" Isaac's face also showed a trace of vigilance. He cast his mental power forward. After feeling some breath of life, he said solemnly, "There are indeed some creatures hidden in the bushes!"

"What should we do?" Tiffany's heart tightened when she heard Isaac's words.

The goblins may be just a group of weak beings, but they can also cause trouble when they have a numerical advantage. Moreover, this place is deep in the dark forest, and the noise caused by the fight may bring more dangers.

"Leave here!" Isaac said decisively.

The task of cleaning up the carrion crows is indeed important, but there is no need to rush. After discovering a group of goblins ambushing ahead, Isaac felt uneasy and made a decision immediately.

Everyone decided to leave, but at this moment

The goblins hiding in the bushes suddenly burst into a chaotic roar. These humanoid creatures, who were originally known for their cowardice and timidity, became extremely violent for some reason and rushed out and pounced on everyone.

"Lightning Dance!"

Seeing the goblins rushing out of the bushes, Isaac's eyes suddenly became cold. He immediately opened his hands, condensed a shining lightning, and then turned into lightning, striking a group of goblins.
