I didn't intend to destroy the world.

Ahead was a slightly sunken depression, with the trees around it much thinner, replaced by dense bushes and a few crooked gray rocks.

The entrance to the goblin's lair was hidden behind the largest rock, in a hole about half a person's height. The edge of the hole was piled with gnawed bones and smelly fur, and there were more than thirty goblins huddled at the entrance.

Upon seeing this, Bearskin and his group realized that these goblins were not the armed goblins they were hunting, and that Levitt had probably made a mistake.

However, given the sheer number of goblins, they were no ordinary group.

We must strike hard!

"This is it." Levitt lowered his voice; he said it on purpose.

Bearskin squinted at the terrain, didn't ask any questions, and simply pressed his hand down.

The group dispersed silently.

Tuncha took five steps back and leaned against a tree trunk, his staff already in his hand.

Wolf Mouth crouched behind a rock, nocked an arrow, and drew his bow.

Youxin patted the beautiful woman's head. The giant wolf lowered its body, flattened its ears, and slid into the bushes on the right like a gray shadow.

Bearskin slowly drew his greatsword, the sound of the blade being drawn was drowned out by the wind in the forest.

"I'll lead the charge." Bearskin's voice was soft, yet as heavy as a stone. "Yuxin on the left wing, Wolf's Mouth as backup, and Tuncha to cast spells as needed."

Levitt—”

Bearskin glanced at the short sword at his waist. "Stay in the back and don't come out."

Levitt didn't feel wronged at all. Compared to being given more attention and joining the battle, he preferred to watch from a distance, hoping to see who would use some skill or trait later so he could broaden his horizons.

So, Levitt obediently nodded, spread his hands, and ran even further than the tea-drinking spot.

The others looked at him with disdain; they had all more or less hoped that Levitt might be of some use.

Bearskin took its first step.

His footsteps were heavy, yet made no extra sound, like a real bear walking in the forest.

The greatsword was dragged diagonally at his side, its tip carving a shallow line in the soil.

Five steps.

Ten steps.

The goblin's hole was pitch black, like the closed anus of a beast.

Meanwhile, the "gadflies" around the anus were drawn to the three men in bear skin, and they began to roar and grab any weapons they could find.

Sticks, stones, or bones.

"In the name of God!"

The bear suddenly accelerated, its heavy body unleashing a burst of power completely disproportionate to its size, covering the ten-step distance in an instant.

He swung the greatsword up from the ground, kicking up dirt and grass clippings, and slashed at the goblins who hadn't even had a chance to react.

"Whoosh—" A flaming arrow shot from a distance, skimming the edge of his blade, towards the goblin horde.

"Ugh—" Three or four goblins were severed by this sword, their green limbs and red blood scattered in mid-air.

Goblins emerged from the bushes on the side, and Youxin rushed over to protect Xiongpi's back.

There are quite a lot of them!

Levitt thought to himself.

"Flame, arrow, release!" Tuncha, holding the staff, aimed and fired, with each round spaced six or seven seconds apart.

In fact, Levitt really wanted the Big Bear Adventure Team to encounter something big, so that Tun Cha would unleash even more powerful spells.

After all, mages are the "nuclear weapons" of the adventurer's party, and they should conserve their magic power unless absolutely necessary.

On the other side, Wolf Mouth, who had climbed up a tree, was supporting the battlefield with his bow and arrow, but soon goblins discovered them, and Wolf Mouth and Swallow Tea began to be preoccupied with their own problems.

Fortunately, the giant wolf was guarding the back row.

Levitt stood up, ran behind Tuncha, and pointed to the two goblins that had just appeared where he had been standing. "Miss Tuncha! Over there!"

Swallowing Tea glanced over there out of the corner of his eye, and a freezing ray froze the goblin's nose.

A companion's stick fell unintentionally, shattering the frozen nose. It rolled on the ground in pain, and in its wild swinging of the weapon, it inadvertently took revenge, severing its companion's ankle.

"Awoo! Awoo!" The sound of wolves howling came from a certain direction. When Levitt looked over, he saw a ferocious demon wolf charging towards him from a distance.

That was the goblin leader's mount, the demon wolf.

As Levitt and Tuncha were on high alert, the giant wolf noticed the demon wolf rushing towards them and immediately charged forward. The two enormous beasts grappled with each other, fell off the platform, and disappeared without a trace.

"The number is increasing." Wolf Mouth kept shooting arrows at the tree below, and in the blink of an eye, seven or eight goblins were about to climb up.

"Damn it." Without the protection of the giant wolf and his teammates, Tun Cha's magic tricks, which were repeated every few seconds, were no match for the endless stream of goblins. Looking towards the bearskin, he saw that there were at least fifty goblins, densely packed together.

How could there be so many!

Tuncha gritted her teeth and shouted, "Wolf's mouth, cover me!" She abandoned her defense and ran to a place with a wide field of vision, which was also an exposed position. She aimed her hands at the bear skin and Youxin and began to chant.

Wolf Mouth knew that Swallow Tea was going to use a ring-level spell to resolve the crisis, so he also gave up shooting at the goblin at his feet. But just as he fired an arrow and approached the goblin Swallow Tea with his club, his right foot was accidentally grabbed by a goblin. He quickly steadied himself, and the bow and arrow fell to the ground.

"Awaken the fire element...Condense the core..." A fireball gathered in his palm, and a scorching heat came over him. However, Tun Cha could already hear the sound of goblins approaching from behind him.

He's going to get hurt!

But we need to cast this fireball spell to get them out of trouble so they can free their hands and we can be saved!

Beyond their sight, Levitt was holding a bloodstained short sword, with two goblin corpses at his feet. He saw the fireball condensing in the palm of the tea-swallowing hand and thought to himself that this was a big guy and he should learn something about it.

However, he was furious when he saw two goblins leap out of the bushes, clutching stone axes and sharpened sticks, and running toward Thuncha.

"Don't you fucking stop me from broadening my horizons!"

"Thud—" Levitt took a big step forward and ran, kicking up fallen leaves and dust.

The two goblins were drawn to the scene.

The stone axe swung from right to left, while another wooden spear blocked his way to the left.

Levitt shifted his weight to the right, slashing his short sword at the stone axe, breaking the wooden stick beneath it. He then spun around, the short sword carrying the momentum of the rotation, smashing the stone axe goblin's skull.

The wooden spear had already grazed his abdomen and missed, leaving the goblin with a huge opening.

He lifted his left foot, smashing the goblin's nose with the instep, then slammed the short sword down, splattering red and white matter everywhere.

"Hellfire, unleash!" A watermelon-sized orange fireball shot towards the battlefield below like a meteor—

"Bang!!!"

The brilliant firelight was reflected in Levitt's eyes.

Fireball (Third Ring): A bright orange fireball is shot from the fingertip, flying towards a point and then exploding within a spherical radius of 6 meters.

......

The battle is over.

The air was filled with the stench of burning flesh. There were originally only thirty-odd goblins, but more kept emerging from all directions and caves. Yu Xin counted them briefly and found that they had killed more than sixty goblins in this battle, plus a demon wolf.

"These goblins are much weaker than usual," Wolf's Mouth said, examining the goblin corpses and echoing the consensus.

Others were unaware of the reason, but Levitt knew perfectly well.

The blessing of the Bloodstained Clan is reproduction. Don't be fooled by how many they've dealt with now; there might still be many more goblins in the cave.

"Let me take a look..." Youxin arrived at the entrance of the cave, used her dagger to pry open the vines covering it, and found it dark below, with an indescribable stench emanating from it.

"The entrance is too narrow; you probably can't fit the bear skin in," Yuxin said, glancing at Tuncha.

"Shrinking technique." Tun Cha wiped the sweat from his forehead. Levitt, who was listening intently, was drooling with envy at the prospect of witnessing something new.

The 15 knowledge points he gained from the Fireball spell have left him completely bewildered.

"Don't rush, I'll go scout ahead. You guys see if there are any other exits. I think there's more than one." Youxin told everyone to calm down. He prepared himself for a moment, and under the giant wolf's worried growling and its jealous gaze, he crawled into the burrow.

"Someone come here." Wolf Mouth, realizing he couldn't rouse the giant wolf, simply looked at the other three with dejection.

"I'll go with you." Tun Cha gestured to Levitt and Xiongpi, especially to Levitt, and smiled before following Wolf's Mouth away.

"I'm so sorry, I underestimated you."

Only the two of them remained. Bearskin sincerely apologized to Levitt: "Thank you for helping Tuncha, and for helping everyone else as well."

"If I showed you my back, you would definitely do the same," Levitt said with a smile to Bearskin.

......

Underground, in a blood-burning cave, in a nurturing chamber.

Bound and writhing in pain, Rose was jolted awake from her unconscious state by the loud bang. Her eyes glazed, she mumbled, "Grey Rat...save me, Grey Rat..."

"Gurgle—Crack!"

The terrifying sounds rang out again as the newly hatched goblins devoured the flesh and blood of the seedbed.
