Chapter 161 The Magical Goblin
"Come with me back to the first floor." Xia Sheng didn't want to miss the opportunity.
"Go back? Is something wrong?" Yukino Yukinoshita asked, puzzled.
"Are you worried that Mai-senpai and the others will show up?" Shiina Mahiru asked, guessing.
"No, it's something else. Let's talk as we walk."
Xia Sheng pulled the two of them and turned back.
"I've gained a new ability; this time I can eat slimes and acquire their abilities."
"Such a thing actually happened?" Yukino Yukinoshita exclaimed in surprise.
"This place can find out your needs?" Shiina Mahiru asked.
"Probably, after all, how could he offer us help if he didn't know?"
"Could we ask him to provide us with more assistance?"
"I doubt it. If he had that ability, what would he need us for? He's probably already done everything he could."
"That's true...::"
Back on the first floor, Xia Sheng was filled with anticipation; he couldn't wait to see his newly acquired abilities.
However, upon seeing the scene for the first time, he was stunned, and his heart was once again filled with panic.
"How could this be... ::." Yukino Yukinoshita stared at the scene before her in disbelief.
"It's... completely recovered." Shiina Mahiru murmured, explaining the situation.
The first floor has become exactly the same scene as when they arrived.
There were no giant craters destroyed by fireballs, no deep holes pierced by water guns, and even the slime's corpse was gone.
Here, it's as if nothing ever happened.
"Natsuo..." Feeling Natsuo's hand unconsciously tightening its grip, Yukino Yukinoshita looked at him with concern.
Given the situation on the first floor, it's hard for them to believe that nothing happened on the second floor.
Perhaps something has already happened on the first floor.
After all, only two magic-wielding slimes appeared. Why didn't the physical attack slimes appear?
Perhaps they have already appeared and then successfully invaded the real world?
This place won't let them invade easily; they'll definitely summon people to stop them.
However, it didn't stop it!
The mere thought of this sent chills down one's spine.
"Natsuo, they'll be alright... Didn't you say that this place summoned us because it needs us? Then it shouldn't let anything happen to us." Shiina Mahiru continued to comfort Natsuo.
She didn't care about Natsumi's worries about Sakurajima Mai and the others, even though she was so distraught.
She just hoped he could pull himself together.
"Mahiru..." Natsuo looked at her, and the concern on her face was clearly visible.
"Natsuo, you're the main force here. Everyone knows that only you can stop the intruders, so they definitely won't just summon Mai-senpai and the others," Shiina Mahiru reminded her.
"yes!"
Only after being reminded by her did Xia Sheng realize what was happening.
Unless they do something foolish, they can't just summon Mai Sakurajima and the others, since they don't have much ability to deal with the invaders right now.
You have to summon him.
Otherwise, what's the point of him bringing him into this world?
He hasn't made them strong enough to fight off the invaders yet.
With this in mind, Xia Sheng felt completely relieved.
"Mahiru, thank you."
"It's alright, it's good that you've thought it through." Shiina Mahiru smiled slightly.
"Yukino, thank you too." Natsuo thanked Yukino Yukinoshita again.
"Hmm." Yukino Yukinoshita gently shook her head.
"Let's go back to the second floor. I can't really relax yet. Let's finish this quickly and go back as soon as possible." Xia Sheng cheered himself up.
"good!"
The three returned to the second floor.
The moment they stepped inside, Xia Sheng gripped their hands tightly, stopped moving, activated his ability, and began to share it.
Danger perception and stealth are used simultaneously.
He dared not be careless in the slightest.
Because the alarm bells in my heart are ringing frantically.
This warning was far more serious than the danger posed by the Big Goblin.
Yukino Yukinoshita and Mahiru Shiina also sensed it, and the two subconsciously moved closer to Natsuo, holding their breath.
The three of them watched warily from the deepest part of the room.
Soon, the space rippled, and then two short figures slowly emerged.
It's still a goblin, but its appearance is very different.
One of them, its appearance was no different from the previous goblins, ugly and ugly, but it was wearing a cloak that covered half of its body, and it was holding a short wooden stick that looked like a magic staff.
He's no longer a fool.
The other one was very different in size from the previous one. It was still short, but with thin arms and legs, almost skin and bones, as if it would fall into its hands with a gust of wind. It had no weapons.
unarmed.
It was another intruder, completely different from the previous ones.
Xia Sheng held the two of them still, quietly observing the two new goblins.
The one holding the staff clearly knows how to use magic, and like the new slime, it has changed from physical to special.
As for the other goblin....
"Um?"
Xia Sheng suddenly frowned and stared at it warily.
That's right, it was eye contact!
It seemed to have spotted them, its gaze clear, a hint of smugness in its eyes.
He clearly used the ability to conceal his presence.
The goblin with the staff didn't notice them and was still looking around.
"Gurgle gurgle~"
At that moment, the skinny goblin said something to the cloaked goblin, and then it raised its staff and pointed it at Xia Sheng and the others.
Xia Sheng's heart tightened, and he became more vigilant.
Magic gathered at the tip of the staff, green fluctuations appeared, and a breeze seemed to appear out of thin air.
The next second, wind blades formed, whistling through the air, and swiftly slashed towards Xia Sheng and the others.
"Get down!"
Xia Sheng immediately grabbed the two of them and hurriedly bent down to lie on the ground.
Bang!
The wind blades collided with the stone wall, sending fragments of rock flying. The sharp, whistling sensation came from above, and the hair of the three people flew wildly, breaking and curling.
Flaxen and ink colors intertwined.
The residual force of the wind blades alone was enough to cut and shred the long hair of Shiina Mahiru and Yukino Yukinoshita. If they had made direct contact, there would have been no chance of anything happening to them.
"Get up quickly." As soon as the rubble stopped falling, Xia Sheng immediately pulled the two of them up. He stared intently at the goblin, on high alert.
The goblin wielding the staff certainly knows magic.
The other one, however, was able to see through his abilities.
Although I had anticipated this situation, I didn't expect it to happen so soon.
He couldn't help but glance back at the destructive power of the wind blades.
One glance was enough to make his eyes widen.
The stone wall had been cut with a deep horizontal groove, and its surface was as smooth as a mirror.
This destructive power and sharpness are stronger than the magical damage of a slime!
"Natsuo, go deal with them. Don't worry about us. We'll try our best not to make you worry," Yukino Yukinoshita said seriously. "Yes, we'll protect ourselves," Shiina Mahiru nodded.
"Okay." Xia Sheng replied without hesitation.
They will never be safe unless these problems are resolved.
He took out the wooden sword and the iron sword and handed them to them, then gripped his katana and walked toward the goblins.
Although the two cannot imbue themselves with magic, having weapons might be of some help.
The ability to conceal one's presence has been broken; now, the only option is to confront the enemy head-on.
Xia Sheng approached the goblin, looking it over and calmly considering which one to deal with first.
Those who possess magic are dangerous, but those who can see through his abilities are an even greater threat.
The two goblins did not react to Xia Sheng's approach, as if they were waiting for him to get closer.
Is there a trap?
Xia Sheng was uncertain, but he had to close the distance.
He planned to use Iaijutsu to kill them instantly.
"Giggle~"
Suddenly, the skinny goblin laughed, and then its figure slowly disappeared.
"What?"
Xia Sheng focused his attention, staring intently at that space, but there was no movement whatsoever.
Is it disappearance?
Or is it invisible?
"Yukino, Mahiru, run!" Natsuo shouted sharply.
He feared that the goblin might target Yukino and the others.
"good!"
Without hesitation, the two separated and ran in opposite directions. Running together along the edge would have been even more dangerous.
Xia Sheng then focused his attention on the cloaked goblin. Unable to detect any trace of the thin goblin, he decided to deal with it first. He bent forward with his right foot, leaned forward, gripped the hilt of his sword with his right hand, and activated a body-strengthening magic, causing his magical power to surge.
He was poised and ready to go.
