Chapter 50 - Chapter 49: Annihilation

At Black Bone Camp, the Goblin leader Maggot Eye was planning an operation against Miracle City. Although attacking the Human Clan's main city was currently out of the question, retaking Red Claw Village and Red Rock Mountain mine seemed feasible. However, with the lesson from Black Bone still fresh, Maggot Eye proceeded cautiously. Instead of launching further attacks immediately, he ordered his subordinates to fortify the camp's defenses, planning to wait until they were completely stable before launching a probing attack to ensure success.

Suddenly, the ground shook with the sound of heavy footsteps. Two Tank Zombies, Violent Little Chicken and White Crane Hermit from Miracle City, appeared in front of the camp. Relying on their massive physiques, they tore open the half-finished spike fence with ease.

Pig King, in his Charger form, shouted, "Brothers, charge with me! Kill all these filthy Dark Kind!"

With that, he led the charge, crashing into the stunned Goblin Warriors with tremendous speed.

Black Stone Hammer King roared, "Damn it, you dare to steal even Miracle City's territory? Watch me beat the life out of you today!"

More than ten contract soldiers charged at the front, drawing fire, followed closely by one hundred and eighty Zombie minions clad in black anti-riot suits. This overwhelming assault left the Goblins reeling.

"Shoot the arrows!"

"Quick, shoot the arrows!"

The Dark Goblins reacted, releasing poisoned arrows and spears with considerable power. However, these attacks were no match for the tough-skinned monsters like Tanks and Chargers. Even the ordinary anti-riot Zombies could withstand several hits with their gear.

When two Tanks and three Chargers combined forces, they smashed through the camp gate. One hundred and eighty Zombie minions swarmed in, eager for battle. Caught off guard, the Dark Goblins hastily engaged in combat. Goblins were sent flying, hammered to death, or torn apart by the Tanks. In moments, heavy casualties mounted, and they were pushed back step by step.

Miracle City's forces were unstoppable. Every Adventurer was hyped up.

Maggot Eye was stunned by the scene before him. This top general of Gloomy City prided himself on his caution, but he never expected the Human Clan's offensive to be so swift and fierce. An almost brand new Underground City actually possessed such combat power. This completely exceeded Maggot Eye's understanding and imagination of the Human Clan!

There were so many of them! Their combat power was even more formidable.

Tank White Crane Hermit and Violent Little Chicken charged through the Goblins as if they were walking through an uninhabited land. Violent Little Chicken swung a Goblin Warrior around like a weapon.

Five-star monsters! These were definitely five-star monsters, roughly equivalent to peak first-tier power! Maggot Eye, as Gloomy City's top general, wasn't confident he could deal with two at once!

"Retreat!"

The situation was dire! A hasty retreat was necessary! Maggot Eye and a few close followers gathered the remaining soldiers to retreat, but their path was blocked by a pale, slender figure. This figure was none other than the Witch Luna Snow.

"Trying to escape? It won't be that easy!"

Luna Snow let out a sharp howl and charged into the Dark Kind with lightning speed. Her sharp claws struck down five or six Goblins, tearing throats or piercing hearts, killing them instantly.

So fast! Another five-star, first-tier combat power! How many top-tier combat powers did humans actually have?

Maggot Eye's expression became even more serious as he faced the Witch Zombie. Just then, a Goblin sorcerer stepped forward, having completed his incantation, and immediately cast a spell.

"Slow!"

An invisible resistance enveloped Luna Snow, significantly reducing her speed, yet she still charged toward Maggot Eye, intending to pierce this Goblin leader.

Clang! A crisp sound rang out as Maggot Eye's warblade blocked the sharp claws, leaving only five scratches on the blade.

"You can actually block my attack? You're quite capable!"

Luna Snow realized that this guy was the leader and immediately launched a more frantic attack, hoping to take down this enemy general and claim the first merit before the other Adventurers.

Blade and claws clashed, sparks flying constantly. Maggot Eye was indeed the top combat power under Gloomy City's Lord. He blocked all attacks from the Witch. Although he seemed defensive and at a disadvantage, he was waiting for the best counterattack opportunity.

"Slow!" The Goblin sorcerer cast the spell again, suppressing Luna Snow's speed and revealing a weakness.

Now!

Maggot Eye's single eye gleamed. His warblade unleashed a blade aura several inches long, executing a spinning slash at several times the speed, sweeping across Luna Snow's neck!

Combat Skill - Whirlwind Slash!

This slash was fierce and sharp! A red line appeared on Luna Snow's neck. "Damn it, I was careless..."

Although she was extremely unwilling, she had to accept that this Goblin was indeed formidable, stronger than any she had seen before.

Although Luna Snow was defeated and beheaded, her mission was to restrain Maggot Eye and prevent him from organizing his forces to retreat. And at this moment, this mission was complete.

The Zombie forces had already formed an encirclement around the Goblins. It was already difficult for the Dark Kind to break through.

"Not good!" Maggot Eye's expression changed drastically. He couldn't care about anything else anymore. He prepared to break out alone with a few close followers, prioritizing his own safety first.

However, just as Maggot Eye was attempting to break out, another oppressive figure appeared before him. This person had an ugly face, exposed gums, wore a black coat, and held a giant flamethrower. It was the Tracker controlled by Jack.

"Go!" "Kill him!"

Although they hadn't fought yet, Maggot Eye could feel the opponent's power. He immediately ordered a few subordinates to attack first.

Before the Goblins could even get close, an intensely hot high-pressure flame was unleashed, instantly sweeping over their bodies and turning them into screaming fireballs on the spot.

What kind of fire spell was this? Judging from its power, it was almost second-tier! It actually instantly killed all the elite guards.

"Whirlwind Slash!"

Despite his horror, Maggot Eye didn't hesitate. He seized the moment the flames receded and struck at the Tracker with a blade aura. Sorcerer-type units have strong attacks but weak defense. This was the only chance for a counter-kill!

Before Maggot Eye's combat skill could be fully unleashed, several tentacles shot out from the body of this ugly giant, wrapping around him mid-air. Each tentacle possessed the strength of a thousand jin, instantly binding him and rendering him immobile.

"You're too weak!" Jack commented indifferently.

"No!" In Maggot Eye's horrified eyes, Jack aimed the flamethrower at him again and activated it. The high-pressure flames engulfed the Goblin, burning him into a charred corpse!

Second-tier against first-tier. It was a complete crushing victory!

Jack wasn't finished yet. At this point, the remaining Goblins had been driven together by the Adventurers. Jack stepped forward with the flamethrower, sweeping and spraying wildly. Wherever he went, there were constant wails. One after another, the Dark Goblins were burned into fireballs, rolling on the ground miserably.

Awesome! It was too awesome! This wasn't a battle at all! Jack felt like he was exterminating pests! The strength of both sides wasn't on the same level, so there was naturally no suspense!

In less than a quarter of an hour, the battle was over. All two hundred and one Goblins were annihilated. Miracle City's actual losses were minimal in comparison. Among them, the contract soldiers suffered relatively heavier losses because they were the first to charge into battle, with five casualties including Luna Snow. The mercenaries suffered a total of fifteen casualties.

Contract soldiers have no consumption. In other words, at the cost of fifteen ordinary soul crystals, they eliminated two hundred Goblins from Gloomy City, plus their strongest leader. Such a result was undoubtedly a great victory!

"We won!" "Satisfying!" "This fight was too exhilarating!" "The Tracker's killing power is really exaggerated!" "The flamethrower's area-of-effect damage is explosive!" "When I reach the second tier in the future, I must contract a Tracker!"

Quickly cleaning up the battlefield, to prevent the Dark Kind from resurrecting, the Goblin corpses were destroyed immediately.

**[You incinerated a Dark Kind corpse, soul crystal +10!]**

**[You incinerated a Dark Kind corpse, soul crystal +1!]**

**[...]**

**[You incinerated a Dark Kind corpse, soul crystal +2, Mental Power +1!]**

A total of 585 soul crystals were obtained. Then, the Goblin equipment was decomposed.

**[You recycled 'Goblin Warblade', First-tier Material Essence +7!]**

**[You recycled 'Goblin Staff', First-tier Material Essence +4!]**

**[You recycled 'Goblin Leather Armor', First-tier Material Essence +1!]**

**[...]**

There were 620 pieces of various equipment and spoils of war. Full decomposition yielded 1,684 units of Material Essence.

This was a large sum of materials! Miracle City's materials were completely depleted, with zero inventory. This income was undoubtedly a timely rain!

With this, the territory had enough resources and would usher in another round of construction and development!

"Lord! Lord!" Tank Violent Little Chicken stepped forward. He was covered in blood with small wounds everywhere. "I hammered at least thirteen Goblins to death in this battle!"

"Well done!"

Jack first distributed double rewards to the Adventurers. He then asked, "Do you want to kill more Dark Kind and earn more contribution points?"

Everyone was stunned. Ryan Shaw asked, "Are there still Dark Goblins nearby?"

Jack calmly said, "There probably aren't any nearby, but there are plenty over at Gloomy City."

What? Gloomy City! Everyone was greatly surprised! The Lord doesn't mean he wants to attack the Dark Kind's main city directly, right?!
