Goblin Simulation: Building a Dark Empire-Chapter 143 – You are like a Groundhog

"If we're going to fight, let's make it a good one. What's the point of settling it with just one move?"

Li Meng wasn't foolish; he wouldn't fall for such a trick.

How could he not see through the ghost beastman's little scheme?

It was nothing more than trying to use the "Berserk" and "Charged Strike" skills to settle the battle in one blow.

Hearing this, Ghost Hand frowned.

It hadn't expected the goblin to not take the bait.

"Haha, goblin, are you scared?"

Ghost Hand laughed mockingly, taunting him.

Li Meng grinned, hoisting the Big Iron Rod onto his shoulder once more.

"Ghost beastman, you really are like a female groundhog ridden by goblins, whining and annoying!"

Ghost Hand's face froze at these words.

Then it erupted in fury, its expression turning ferocious.

"Goblin, it's the demon tribe centurion 'Ghost Hand' who will kill you, ah!"

Ghost Hand roared in anger, its eyes turning blood red.

A surge of blood energy erupted from its body.

Its tall frame creaked.

Muscles bulged, and its entire body swelled.

The originally dark brown skin turned a reddish-brown.

Blood-colored veins, like a spider's web, appeared on the surface of its body.

"Boom!"

Ghost Hand's figure flickered.

The ground beneath its feet collapsed with a "boom."

Its towering body shot forward like an arrow.

The speed was so fast, accompanied by a piercing whistle through the air.

"That's more like it!"

Li Meng grinned, his figure flickering.

A wave of air exploded instantly.

The two figures clashed in an instant.

"Clang!"

A sharp metallic clash echoed.

A wave of air swept out in all directions.

The weapons in their hands collided.

The massive recoil sent both sliding backward.

They slid over ten meters before stabilizing.

"Roar!"

Ghost Hand's eyes were blood red.

Just as it steadied itself, it charged at Li Meng again.

In that instant, when it was less than twenty meters from Li Meng.

Its figure flickered and vanished into a blur.

In the next moment, it suddenly appeared on Li Meng's left side.

The great sword in its hand slashed horizontally.

Li Meng turned, holding the Big Iron Rod in both hands to block in front of him.

"Clang!"

The great sword struck the Big Iron Rod, sparks flying.

The immense force sent Li Meng sliding back another ten meters.

Before he could steady himself, the enraged ghost beastman closed in again.

The great sword slashed down once more.

"Hmph, courting death!"

Li Meng's expression turned cold, a murderous intent in his eyes.

Although he didn't want to kill the ghost beastman and attract the demon tribe's attention.

But once the fight started, he couldn't care about that anymore.

The ghost beastman was already in a berserk state.

He had to kill it; otherwise, it wouldn't stop.

The berserk ghost beastman was indeed strong.

Its attributes had multiplied several times.

Li Meng swung the Big Iron Rod, cleaving the ghost beastman's great sword aside.

The two figures moved, advancing and retreating.

The weapons in their hands swung so fast they became blurs.

The weapons clashed again and again.

The metallic clangs echoed through the heavens and earth.

Waves of air exploded, sweeping the surroundings.

"Clang!"

Another fierce clash.

The two figures separated, sliding back over ten meters.

"Roar!"

Ghost Hand roared with blood-red eyes.

Its two thick arms swelled to twice their size.

It lifted its right foot and stomped forward.

"Boom!"

The ground beneath its feet collapsed.

Ghost Hand's figure shot forward again.

In that instant of explosive movement.

Its figure flickered and vanished.

In the next moment, it suddenly appeared in front of Li Meng.

Both hands raised the great sword high, slashing down at Li Meng in a frenzy.

This strike wrapped the sword in a visible wave of wind.

Li Meng had long been wary of the ghost beastman's "Instant Flash Assault" skill.

Although he was surprised by the ghost beastman's choice to charge head-on.

But the moment the ghost beastman appeared, Li Meng reacted.

He stepped back, his figure flying backward.

The sharp blade of the great sword sliced past Li Meng's body, embedding into the ground.

"Boom!"

A thunderous crash echoed.

Dust flew, and the ground collapsed.

Ghost Hand's sword carved a large pit in the ground before it.

"The Charged Strike is indeed powerful!"

If that strike had hit, his life would have been in danger.

Li Meng, flying backward, waved his right hand.

A yellowish magical glow appeared.

A stone bullet the size of half a fist quickly condensed and shot out.

The stone bullet flew like a bullet toward the ghost beastman.

The ghost beastman seemed to sense something.

It swung its sword to slash in front of it.

With one slash, it shattered the incoming stone bullet.

"Magic really isn't suitable for close combat!"

Instant-cast magic was too weak.

Powerful magic required charging.

"Goblin, I'll kill you!"

The ghost beastman roared to the sky.

Its figure flickered, charging forward in rage once more.

Li Meng grinned, the Big Iron Rod on his shoulder.

The moment his foot touched the ground, his figure flickered.

A wave of air exploded instantly.

His figure once again rushed toward the charging ghost beastman.

This time, Li Meng didn't choose to take it head-on.

Facing the ghost beastman's slash, he suddenly flickered to the left.

The descending great sword sliced past Li Meng's body, missing.

"I'll kill you, kill you!"

The ghost beastman swung the great sword in rage.

One slash after another aimed at Li Meng.

But Li Meng moved around the ghost beastman like an eel.

Making every slash from the ghost beastman miss.

The enraged ghost beastman grew even angrier.

Its reddish-brown body began to emit steam.

The swollen body slowly shrank.

The ghost beastman's attacks also slowed significantly.

"Looks like it's reached its limit!"

With a retreat, Li Meng easily dodged the ghost beastman's slash.

The changes in the ghost beastman's body were clear to Li Meng.

"Not even three minutes and it's spent, tsk tsk!"

Seeing the ghost beastman's attacks growing weaker.

Li Meng smirked slightly, a hint of boredom in his eyes.

From the start, Li Meng didn't think the ghost beastman could pose any threat to him.

After all, the ghost beastman's greatest strength was its physical prowess.

Even with its berserk attributes, it was still a bit inferior to him.

Moreover, the ghost beastman didn't have any powerful attack skills.

Although "Instant Flash Assault" could pair well with "Charged Strike."

But "Instant Flash Assault" was only suitable for ambushes.

It could only achieve a one-hit kill on someone fighting for the first time.

Once the opponent was prepared.

The "Instant Flash Assault" skill wasn't as effective.

And "Instant Flash Assault" wasn't a teleportation skill.

It just explosively used leg strength to accelerate suddenly, appearing like teleportation.

Anyone slightly stronger could sense the attack direction.

"How is this possible, impossible, impossible!"

At this moment, the ghost beastman snapped out of its berserk state.

Seeing Li Meng still unharmed.

Ghost Hand's face turned pale, retreating repeatedly.

Its gaze at Li Meng was filled with disbelief.

What was with this goblin?

Why was it so powerful?

Clearly just a goblin, why?

A flash of murderous intent crossed Ghost Hand's eyes.

If this goblin continued to grow.

One day, it would threaten the demon tribe.

It had to return alive.

It had to inform the demon general of this goblin's existence.
