As a venomous snake, I evolved into a god through devouring.

Unable to contain his excitement and fervor, the goblin leader let out a wild laugh.

Its equipment is the most complete among all goblins. After learning of the existence of venomous snakes, it even ordered its logistics subordinates to quickly make leather armor covering its arms and all exposed skin except for its head!

Now, this hastily made armor has come in handy!

The fangs of a small venomous snake are too short to be seen through its thick hide, which means that the opponent's most prized weapon of attack is no threat at all!

So now it's time for him to retaliate!

The goblin leader used almost all his strength to suppress the opponent's struggle.

When it used the shield to block earlier, it discovered that the snake was incredibly strong, and now that it had its hands on it, it could feel it firsthand.

That slender body contained an extremely terrifying explosive force, and it was about to break free!

The goblin leader abandoned his shield, grabbed the venomous snake with both hands, dodged its mouth that was reaching towards his face, swung it violently, and then slammed it hard into the ground!

The dull thud and the feel of the impact clearly indicated that this blow had inflicted significant damage on the opponent!

The goblin leader couldn't help but burst into laughter again, raising its arms as if to do it once more.

Continuous swinging can severely damage the opponent's spine, rendering them unable to move, and falls can even damage their internal organs.

Just repeat this a few times and the snake will be completely defenseless, at your mercy!

The goblin leader decided to torture the snake that had ruined his attack plan, then cut off its head, skin it alive, and devour it, letting it die in extreme agony!

The venomous snake was clearly unwilling to accept defeat, and it launched another attack on the goblin leader's face.

However, its upper body was not as long as the goblin leader's arm; even when fully extended, it only reached the level of the leader's upper arm, so it could only open its mouth in vain.

The former bared its yellow, foul-smelling teeth, watching with satisfaction as its prey struggled to its death.

But at that moment, something completely unexpected happened!

Two streams of water suddenly shot out from the snake's open mouth, hitting the goblin leader precisely in the eyes!

Before the latter could wipe away the liquid obstructing his vision, a strong burning sensation struck his brain, as if a red-hot knife was stabbing into his brain from his eye socket and stirring inside!

"gurrrraaaaaaa!!!"

The goblin leader let out a horrifying scream. Unable to bear the pain, he covered his eyes, and the venomous snake was released from his grasp.

The latter fell to the ground and quickly lunged at the blind goblin leader!

Venom spray!

This is the latest skill that Kasper gained by adding evolution points to Venom Fang.

When he was strengthening the fangs in the afternoon, he saw a progress indicator similar to the energy level appear in the fangs section of the panel.

The act of licking the blood of the goblin archer just now was to make up for the last few evolution points that were missing!

The first surprise attack to the face lowered the opponent's guard, but the second venom spray was Caspar's real killing move!

But those few swings just now did cause him considerable damage. If his bones and muscles hadn't been strengthened, he would already be a dead snake.

Kasper swallowed the blood that spilled from the corner of his mouth, dodged the goblin leader's wild slashes, climbed up the latter's trouser leg to the arm holding the sword, wrapped it around, and then suddenly exerted his strength!

A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out, and the short sword in the latter's hand clattered to the ground.

Kasper then used the same method again, disabling the goblin leader's left arm.

Unlike this ugly creature, he didn't have the pleasure of torturing his prey; his reason for doing so was that it no longer had venom.

To make sure the guy's eyes were ruined, Casper squeezed out all the venom glands.

It was undoubtedly a high-stakes gamble, but fortunately, his tactics succeeded!

The goblin leader, whose arms had been severed, suddenly stopped howling. It knelt down, uttered unintelligible syllables, and ceased all resistance.

It signifies submission.

The defeated goblin leader now fully realizes Casper's power and wisdom, and believes that the other party can understand its meaning.

And Casper did indeed understand the meaning behind its actions, just as he had expected.

"I refuse."

Kasper did not stop hunting. Having crippled the goblin leader's arms, it quickly coiled around the latter's neck, tightening its grip without the slightest hesitation in its serpentine eyes.

Kasper stopped beating only after the goblin leader's heart had completely stopped.

It had almost exhausted all its strength, and didn't even have the energy to lick the blood, so it lay down quietly to rest next to the corpse.

The goblin leader was indeed a powerful subordinate. With his help, he no longer needed to hunt every day. He could even get the former to come up with a way to make tools to deal with the serpent eagle that was always circling in the sky.

But compared to usefulness, Kasper valued loyalty more.

The goblin leader had just mercilessly beheaded his kin before the poison took effect, all in an attempt to kill him. This was proof enough of his true nature.

He currently has no magical power and is unable to use magic similar to that used to subdue familiars.

In other words, whether or not they betray the goblin leader in the future depends entirely on the leader's conscience.

Judging from the latter's previous behavior, it clearly hates Kasper.

If Casper lets them go this time, what awaits him in the future will probably not be tribute, but the goblin chieftain's blade.

He simply didn't have the time to conduct loyalty tests, nor did he want to constantly guard against his subordinates' betrayal; killing them once and for all was the best solution.

Kasper rested on the ground for almost an hour before regaining some strength.

He laboriously approached the corpses of the goblins he had previously killed, used his tail to curl his scimitar, and bled them.

"These things...what a waste..."

He ate while sighing inwardly.

Without a doubt, he couldn't take any of the goblin corpses lying scattered on the ground, nor could he possibly devour them all.

All Caspar can do now is minimize the losses as much as possible.

"Without hands, even with tools, it's impossible to use them skillfully. Cutting open the skin to bleed is already very difficult, let alone cutting meat."

But in any case, this harvest was very fruitful.

The energy level was successfully promoted to 3, and the various attributes of the body were also improved. Due to the points added, a new skill, Venom Spray, was also obtained.

He was only acting to defend his own territory; he didn't think about these things at the time. Now that he has so much, what more could he want?

Just as Casper was thinking this, a system notification sound appeared in his mind.

You launched an attack on a goblin horde in the wild and successfully wiped them out single-handedly!

Congratulations! You have obtained a new term – Leadership Skills!
