Chapter 33: Goblins Discovered! Heretics Rising!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Time passed quickly.

It seemed to have happened in the blink of an eye.

The scorching sun that had been hanging high in the sky a moment ago dissipated its original heat and began to fall towards the western horizon.

“The end of the novice period is getting closer and closer. Only tonight’s time is left!”

“Time seems to be passing even faster!”

Mike looked at the dense forest outside the castle that was gradually dimming.

In the blink of an eye, a day’s time was about to pass.

After tonight, the Beast Tide was about to arrive.

Time was also becoming more and more pressing.

The earth dragon team led by Barr was about to return to the castle and end the hunt in the afternoon.

“The number of wild monsters hunted this afternoon is not that many.”

“It seems that they are mainly investigating other local forces.”

“There are only about 200 corpses of wild monsters hunted.”

“Around 3,000 units of food and some monster materials have been collected.”

If the earth dragons that were wiped out were included, today’s hunt could be considered a bumper harvest.

In terms of energy stones, they had also harvested 40.

However, this was already pretty good.

After all, there were energy stones harvested every day.

Over time, the conditions for upgrading the dragon lair could be met.

The number of energy stones in the warehouse also increased to 134.

The food was put on the shelves of the [space exchange].

The monster materials were still sent to the little loli in the underground world.

At the same time, the earth dragon meat that was put on the shelves had all been sold out.

Normal earth dragon meat, elite Earth dragon meat, and commander-level earth dragon meat.

They were all sold out.

The earth dragon was an Asian dragon-type monster with the bloodline of a giant dragon.

Its meat could barely be related to a giant dragon.

This attracted many Castle Lords to rush over and buy it.

After the earth dragon meat was sold out, Mike naturally made a huge profit.

In total, he obtained 25,000 units of wood and 18,000 units of stones.

The wood and stones in Mike’s warehouse had long met the requirements for upgrading the Dragon King Castle to a town.

At present, all he lacked was refined iron.

However, he would not stop buying after meeting the requirements for upgrading.

After all, after upgrading to a town, he still needed to upgrade later.

For example, upgrading to the main city, kingdom, and empire needed a huge amount of upgrading materials.

If he bought more in the early stages, it would be easier to upgrade later.

Mike also looked at the castle’s warehouse.

He carefully calculated the resources he had now.

“There are 142,330 units of wood, 64,500 units of stones, and 1,620 units of refined iron.”

Of course, Mike packed up the other monster materials and gave them to the Little Loli in the underground world.

Other than wood, stones, and refined iron, there were only energy stones and strange crystals.

The 3,000 units of food that had just been put on the shelves today could be exchanged for a large amount of wood and stone.

After the auction ended, he should be able to obtain a large amount of refined iron.

Whether it was the wood and stone needed to upgrade the castle.

Or the wood and stone needed to build the Holy Dragon Palace.

He did not need to worry about any of them.

The materials he had in reserve right now...

Were all completely enough.

But as for refined iron, he only had as much as 1,600.

If he wanted to do both at the same time, he still needed as much as 13,000.

But the Little Loli in the underground world still had nearly 5,000 units of refined iron in stock.

If that was the case, he still needed more than 8,000 units of refined iron.

It all depended on whether the Castle Lords who were auctioned off tonight would give it their all.

...

At the same time.

In the dense forest about six kilometers away from the Dragon King Castle.

Between the dense leaves.

A huge figure gradually appeared.

The sphere of influence of the Dragon King Castle was three kilometers in circumference.

Barr did not follow the earth dragon team back to the Dragon King Castle.

Instead, he continued to search for the local forces of the other world continent hiding nearby.

He had not gained anything in the past few days.

But this afternoon, he was far away from the Dragon King castle.

He finally found traces of the local forces.

A few short gnomes were shuttling through the dense jungle. They were extremely fast and agile, like big rats running fast.

Bar flapped his huge wings and followed behind these gnomes.

Instead, he followed them, wanting to find the gnome tribe or nest.

“Run quickly!”

“Go back and report to the chieftain that humans have invaded our territory.”

“They created traps to capture and kill our clansmen!”

“Unforgivable!”

“Ask the chieftain to send a powerful army of gnome warriors to destroy those shameful humans!”

The gnomes ran extremely fast.

The dense thistles and thorns could not slow them down at all.

In the blink of an eye, a few gnomes ran for two to three kilometers.

Finally, they disappeared into a tree hole.

This was an ancient tree that was hundreds of meters tall, with luxuriant branches and leaves.

A few meters away from the ground, there was a tree hole that was less than a meter in diameter.

It seemed to be formed naturally.

This tree hole was one of the entrances to the gnome’s nest.

Barr stopped there.

The Gnome’s nest or tribe must be hidden in the underground world behind the tree hole.

“The entrance has been found!”

“Go back and report to my Lord!”

Barr marked his position and turned to fly away.

Before long, he was far away.

But suddenly, several arrows shot towards him.

Their speed was extremely fast, and their angles were extremely tricky.

Barr was a level 6, so he was naturally not afraid of ordinary long-range attacks of this level.

He waved his dragon claws and sent the arrows flying one by one.

Turning around, he saw a group of humans surrounding him.

Among them, there were a few humans who were holding onto a large net made of vines and were directly closing in on him.

“Catch him!”

“It’s obviously a dragon!”

“It’s a rare monster!”

“Even if we can’t subdue it, we can still make a lot of money selling it!”

“Big Brother Mike killed a group of earth dragons and made a lot of money!”

“This is a dragon with a bloodline higher than earth dragons!”

A group of more than ten human warriors surrounded Barr.

The strongest was a tier 5 while the weakest was a tier 2.

At the back, there was a youth.

He was shouting orders, his expression agitated.

“You’re courting death!”

Barr spat out a pitch-black fireball.

The huge fireball flew past.

The huge net of vines was instantly burnt to ashes.

There were also a few human warriors that were hit by the aftershocks, dying on the spot.

At this time, another arrow flew over.

Barr ignored it and charged towards a tier 5 elite human warrior.

You, an elite human warrior, have a serious expression.

He held a wooden sword.

As he retreated, he unleashed his battle skills.

Jumping a few meters high, he slashed towards Barr.

The sword light was dazzling, slicing through dozens of meters, cutting through several trees.

However, it did not hit Barr.

Instead, Barr was forced to approach him.

Facing the dragon claw that fell from the sky, he could only raise the wooden sword in his hand and try his best to block it.

Swish, swish, swish!

The first claw broke the wooden sword.

The second claw cut open his defensive leather armor.

The third claw sent his head flying!
