I Am Not A Goblin Slayer-Chapter 163 - 147: 1,000 Milestone
As it was a hastily assembled temporary team, there was a lack of coordination, and their strengths varied greatly.
The eight of them didn’t engage in coordinated combat, but acted separately according to their original small teams.
Once everything was ready, they boldly advanced towards the monster base.
"Such speed!"
Gauss caught a glimpse of the "Iron Arms" team out of the corner of his eye, only capturing the afterimage as they swiftly dashed away.
Leading the charge was Captain Quik.
The longsword in his hand transformed into a cold silver arc across his front, decapitating every goblin and Kobold obstructing his path with precision.
Gauss thought he could also instantly kill these low-level monsters, but the ease with which they did it was completely different.
From start to finish, Quik’s forward speed did not slow even for a moment due to any sword swings.
Under his lead, the entire team was like a sharp wedge, piercing directly into the heart of the ogre’s camp.
Meanwhile, the female Warlock was clearly already casting spells.
The ogre, just getting up from the ground, looked around from side to side, ignoring the team rampaging through the monster group, instead pounding the ground in rage, seemingly trapped in a state of unease and fury.
However, not far from it, a half-ogre and Jackal-Wolf People noticed this unexpected guest while abusing two captive female Adventurers.
They grabbed their weapons and charged towards the team with a roar.
Gauss withdrew his gaze.
His immediate task was to kill more monsters.
Earlier, Quik hadn’t specifically slaughtered the low-level monsters, only clearing them as he went, with an estimated count of thirty dead by his hand.
Meanwhile, Dorian the Ranger in his team was shooting arrows like a waterfall, each arrow taking down at least one or two monsters.
Even Cathy, whose contracted forest python had remained hidden, appeared: its fifteen-meter-long, ostrich-egg-thick body rolling and crushing through the monster crowd, leveraging its size to create a scene of blood and carnage.
Gauss found he’d miscalculated.
The rest of the Iron Arms team really didn’t hold back, and they thoroughly slaughtered the smaller monsters.
He hurriedly pulled out the White Bone Staff suited for rapid firing, stuffing a jerky into his mouth to replenish his strength at any time.
At the same time, he mobilized his Magic Power.
The tip of the staff instantly gathered a bright blue halo, and three magic missiles arranged in a triangle roared forth!
At this moment, several Elite Demons timely engaged the Iron Arms team. Although clearly outmatched, they bought Gauss precious time to "develop," otherwise, with the speed at which the Iron Arms team slaughtered, he might not even have managed to seize seventy monsters.
"Kill Goblin*2"
"Kill Kobold*3"
"Kill Cowardly Demon*2"
"..."
Gauss’s spells were relentless, the precise magical "bombardment" swiftly reducing the monster numbers before him.
Aaliyah was also ready with the Entanglement Technique on her side.
Soon, vines broke through the soil, transforming into large snakes, entangling the enemies along the way.
Gauss seized the opportunity to stow away his staff, switching to the rapier.
For stationary targets, spells are not as necessary, it’s better to save some Magic Power.
Chewing the jerky, he lightly tapped the ground, leaping into the enemy group in a few steps.
The rapier in his hand swiftly stabbed through the air several times.
The speed was so tremendous that a few shadows seemed to remain in the air.
"Slash!" "Slash!" "Slash!"
The tip of the sword turned into chilling starlight, landing precisely and gracefully on the weak points of the low-level monsters.
Blood-red plum blossoms bloomed on the tip of the sword.
"Argh!"
The monsters entangled in the vines struggled in vain, and as their vital points were pierced, their Life Force rapidly drained, transforming into continuously increasing numbers on Gauss’s monster panel.
...
Not far away, the last 1st-level Adventurer to join the team had just finished recovering from an escape. Turning his head to look, he was dumbfounded.
To their right, the Iron Arms team was advancing like a hot knife through butter, swiftly slicing down the Elite Demons in an extremely short time.
On their left, Gauss was executing efficient slaughter on the low-level monsters.
It seemed like they... didn’t need them here?
What also puzzled them was how this black-haired, emerald-eyed man, also a 1st-level Professional, could be so strong?
At least in terms of slaughtering low-level monsters, the ease with which he did it was already unmatched by other 1st-level Professionals, almost not losing to the other side by much.
"Shall we... join in?"
Only when his companion called to him did he nod, come back to his senses, and grip his weapon to join the battle.
In the direction of the Iron Arms team, Quik effortlessly deflected the Jackal-Wolf Person’s slash. Seizing the moment when it staggered back, its body rigid, his sword stroke unbelievably returned to readiness.
Accompanied by a low shout of "Forward Cut!", his body shot forward like lightning, the longsword enveloped in a layer of condensed white energy.
"Swish—Splatter!!" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
A smooth cut extended abruptly from the Jackal-Wolf Person’s unarmored abdomen, blood spraying violently.
This advancing horizontal slash split its robust body clean in two!
Quik stood straight, his breathing steady as usual.
Glancing at his companions, they too had swiftly and neatly dealt with the other 1st-level Elite Demons.
For this team, average 1st-level Elite Demons posed little threat; the only concern was conserving energy as much as possible.
To deal with enemies with minimal expenditure, without a scratch.
He glanced towards Gauss and the two’s direction.
After all, with Cathy’s acquaintance there, he intended to check the situation; if things went awry, he’d send someone to assist.
