Under the gloomy tree shade, a massive white wolf stared at Li Ruoshu.
Then, without looking back, it vanished into the jungle.
"It's a Level 3 Hurricane Wolf of Elite quality, and its grade has reached three stars."
Li Ruopu had just climbed up from the ground, and before he could think deeply, his first reaction was excitement.
Seeing an Elite-grade magical beast, and one of such a high grade, truly fit the hunting game he envisioned for his sister.
"Don't act rashly yet."
Li Ruoshu was much calmer. "I suspect it's still nearby, observing us in the dark. This beast is very cunning; it won't be that easy to kill."
In truth, the combat power index difference was too great.
Li Ruoshu's current spirit body was 【Normal ★★★★】 quality, with a combat power index of only 16 points.
Meanwhile, that Level 3 Hurricane Wolf had reached 【Elite ★★★】 quality, and its combat power index had climbed to 120 points.
This gap was already seven or eight times, not something that could be easily overcome with a bit of combat skill.
Moreover, the opponent was so cunning.
Seeing that its wind blade attack missed, it decisively chose to retreat.
"If we can't beat it, then should we run?" Li Ruopu asked.
"No running!" Li Ruoshu said confidently. "It's fine; it probably won't show itself easily again. We'll continue exploring. We'll talk about it after we get another magic crystal and level up."
The combat power index wasn't so ridiculously far apart that the Hurricane Wolf couldn't be wounded by a blade.
As long as it had a health bar and could be penetrated, it could be killed!
This was the confidence of a top-tier strategy team's ace.
Li Ruoshu ignored the Hurricane Wolf hidden in the shadows and continued deeper into the forest.
She encountered several Level 2 wolf-like creatures and easily cut them down.
If others were compared to unit cards, Li Ruoshu was undoubtedly a hero card.
She could remain vigilant of her surroundings while fighting enemies.
After killing a dozen or so Level 2 creatures and obtaining two magic crystals, Li Ruoshu immediately submitted an application.
【Adventurer Li Ruoshu requests to use two Level 2 Normal-grade magic crystals to upgrade the level of her current spirit body.】
【Do you allow it?】
This option suddenly appeared in Chen Yu's mind while he was still constructing the Resident Evil Normal mode.
After a brief moment of thought, Chen Yu chose 'Yes'.
Subsequently, Li Ruoshu's level quickly rose to Level 3, and her combat power index reached 24 points.
Li Ruoshu quickly allocated the upgraded points.
She felt her body become much lighter.
In the early stages, the impact of this combat power index wasn't very significant.
However, for top Adventurers, even a slight improvement could lead to a huge leap.
Now, she only needed to obtain another Level 3 magic crystal to raise her level to Level 4, and then Li Ruoshu would have the confidence to seek out that Hurricane Wolf and try to kill it.
During this time, Bai Feifei and the others, while searching for magic stones on their prey, were unexpectedly attacked by a Goblin Tribe.
Watching the Goblins increasingly surround them, each of their gazes gleamed with greedy desire.
From their lustful eyes, it was not difficult to discern their current thoughts.
These Goblins likely mistook Bai Feifei and the five girls for human girls from the Dark World, and were planning how to drag these girls back to their tribe.
"Grumble grumble."
"Yosh."
Dozens of Goblins completely surrounded them, chattering about something unknown.
Facing those disgusting stares, Bai Feifei and the others felt a wave of nausea. Without hesitation, they immediately sent out a distress signal to the entire team.
Then, the girls remained on guard, Lin Xiaoxiao's bowstring constantly taut.
At this moment, from among these Goblins, a Goblin Elder suddenly emerged. It wasn't tall, but it wore a wizard's robe and held a green staff.
As the Goblin Elder's staff struck down, a surge of natural power erupted from beneath their feet.
Vines shot up from the ground, forming a cage that trapped Bai Feifei and the others inside.
"Rare quality!"
Upon realizing that the Goblin Elder's quality had reached 【Rare ☆】, Bai Feifei and the others were stunned on the spot.
Not only had its quality reached Rare, but its level had also reached Level 5.
"How can there be such a strong opponent in this area?"
"Something's not right..."
Bai Feifei seemed to have thought of something, looking pensive.
Immediately, she sent out several retreat signals on the map.
The vine prison continued to grow new small vines, which seemed to be alive as they attacked Bai Feifei and the others.
But they weren't trying to attack; they only intended to... bind and restrain?
As soon as they realized this, the girls felt even more disgusted and immediately counterattacked with their weapons.
But a Rare-grade Lv5 Goblin Elder, with a combat power index of 350 points, was no match for a few girls with only 6 points of combat power.
Within a few seconds, Bai Feifei and the others had their weapons disarmed by the vines and were bound one after another, completely trapped within the vine prison.
Wu Lanlan gasped in surprise, almost crying out in fear. "Feifei, what do we do? We won't be imprisoned by this group of Goblins, and after that 'thing,' give birth to a bunch of 'those things,' will we? And then it'll be a never-ending cycle..."
"...Big sister, your imagination is quite comprehensive."
Bai Feifei was momentarily speechless. "Don't forget, we are Adventurers."
"Although they've trapped our physical bodies, they can't restrain our souls. At worst, we just log off."
Lin Xiaoxiao also said indifferently, "Our current bodies are the avatars of Adventurer spirits, not our true selves. Logging off makes us disappear."
"But..." Wu Lanlan still felt uncomfortable. "Being caught by a group of Goblins, I just feel like I'm not clean anymore..."
"Wait..."
Bai Feifei suddenly said, "Look, it seems they plan to drag us directly back?"
A dozen Goblins were seen pulling the vines, dragging the girls in a certain direction.
The Goblin Elder walked at the very front, head held high.
The entire group seemed to have caught some rare prey and were rushing back to present it as a treasure.
"Yosh."
"Yosh."
Listening to the excited sounds of the surrounding Goblins, Bai Feifei looked thoughtful. "If nothing goes wrong, we've probably encountered the regular army from the Goblin Kingdom."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded. "Indeed, ordinary Goblin Tribes shouldn't have soldiers of this scale, and it's even less likely to have a Rare-grade mage."
"So where are they taking us?"
Bai Feifei answered without hesitation, "It's possible... to the Goblin Kingdom. Didn't Lord Chen always want to know where the Goblin Kingdom is located?"
Lin Xiaoxiao was startled. "Feifei, you mean?"
Bai Feifei nodded firmly. "That's right. We'll just follow these Goblins and go take a look inside the Goblin Kingdom."
