Chapter 331: 331. Hunting Goblins Again!

A middle-aged man dressed in full armor came to the front of the group waiting for the gate to open.

"Don’t go too far into the wild. There are monsters beyond the wall you couldn’t imagine." He warned them before signaling for the gate to open.

Moments later, the small door opened vertically.

"Now go!" the man shouted.

Everyone entered through the small opening in the wall and stepped outside.

Orion and Jake followed, along with Chuck and his men.

Outside the wall, Orion saw destroyed buildings and wreckage, barely recognizable beneath the trees and grass that had grown waist-high, covering the entire area.

"This area just outside the wall is called Sector 1. That’s where you two will be hunting," Chuck said, examining his sword.

He added, "Don’t worry, we’ll be keeping an eye on you."

Orion glanced at Chuck and his men, then turned to Jake. "You’re rich."

"It’s my family that’s rich, not me," Jake sighed, then looked at Orion. "Let’s search around Sector 1 for monsters to hunt."

Orion nodded, and the two of them ventured deeper into Sector 1, scanning for something to hunt.

As they explored, Orion noticed traces of buildings and signs of the civilization that once existed outside the wall.

"Goblins!"

Orion’s eyes were drawn to a group of green-skinned creatures resembling monkeys. They were eating rusted metal in a small alleyway, partially hidden by dense trees.

Both Orion and Jake quickly took cover behind a tree.

"Five goblins in total," Orion whispered before turning to Jake. "Let me see if I can handle one by myself."

Jake frowned. "They’re in a group. How are you going to do that?"

Orion smiled. "Just watch." He picked up a stone from the ground and aimed at one of the goblins, the one farthest from the group, before throwing it.

The stone hit the goblin, and Orion quickly ducked behind the tree again. He grabbed another stone and tossed it at a nearby tree, creating a small sound.

Moments later, the goblin that had been hit by the first stone arrived at the spot where the second stone had struck the tree, out of view from the rest of the group, which was still devouring chunks of metal.

The goblin looked around cautiously. Orion and Jake were hiding just behind it in the shadow of the tree.

Orion signaled Jake with his eyes, indicating that he would attack. Jake nodded in understanding.

’Let’s do this.’

Orion immediately transferred the stat points from Intelligence to Agility, boosting his Agility to 10. He dashed forward, closing the distance between them. Then, he returned the stat points to Intelligence and then again transferred 5 points from Intelligence to Strength before swinging his sword.

The sword sliced through the goblin’s shoulder and down to its waist, where it got stuck. Blood spurted everywhere as the goblin collapsed, dead.

Orion retrieved his sword and looked at the goblin’s body, reflecting on how much effort it had taken just to kill one in this world.

’That’s how it is.’

He sighed and returned to where Jake was hiding, only to find Jake staring at him in shock.

"You killed it so easily," Jake whispered. "That was a level 2 goblin."

Orion nodded, curious. "How did you know it was level 2?"

Jake facepalmed. "Look above the goblin’s head."

Orion peeked around the tree and saw it: ’Level 2’ floated above each goblin’s head.

"I didn’t know that," Orion admitted.

Jake nodded. "Let’s finish off the rest. There are only four left. Two for each of us."

"Alright, give me a minute," Orion said, wiping the blood from his sword. Once ready, he nodded. "Let’s do it."

The two glanced at each other before sprinting toward the remaining goblins. Orion transferred 5 stat points from Intelligence to Agility, increasing his speed. He quickly reached the goblins and then moved the points from Agility to Strength, swinging his sword at one goblin’s neck.

Blood spurted as the goblin’s head flew off. The others noticed them, but it was too late. Orion swiftly killed another goblin while Jake took care of the other two.

[Congratulations to the Host for learning the skill - Dash.]

[Congratulations to the Host for learning the skill - Power Strike.]

"Huh?" Orion was surprised to see that he had learned two new skills automatically.

’How did this happen?’

He realized the skills he had learned, Dash and Power Strike, were similar to how he had used his talent to boost his agility and strength.

’I can learn skills that easily?’

It seemed too simple if learning skills was as easy as how he had acquired Dash and Power Strike.

"What happened?" Jake asked, noticing Orion’s frown.

"Nothing," Orion replied.

"Let’s go hunt more monsters," Jake suggested.

Orion nodded, and they continued searching. However, they hadn’t gone far when they encountered more goblins.

"Are there only goblins here?" Orion asked.

"Since this is Sector 1, it only has low-level monsters, and goblins are the most common," Jake explained.

Just then, red smoke began to surround the area. Before they could react, the red mist engulfed them.

"I can’t breathe!" Jake shouted. Stay updated via NovelBin.Côm

Orion heard him but was also struggling to breathe.

’What’s going on?’ Orion thought anxiously. The longer the mist lingered, the harder it became for him to breathe.

"There’s nothing wrong with the body. Is he really the one?"

Orion suddenly heard a voice, but he couldn’t focus on where it came from.

"I’m sure. The tracking device can’t be wrong."

Another voice echoed, but Orion’s body was weakening. He struggled to stay on his feet and felt himself on the verge of losing consciousness.

’What are these voices?’ Orion wondered as he collapsed. He couldn’t breathe anymore, as if all the air had been stolen from him. Darkness slowly enveloped him.
