This adventurer is overly righteous.

Inside the Adventurers' Guild, a group of adventurers cheered and jumped for joy. They crowded in front of a wall, on which hung a map that almost covered the entire wall.

The map was marked with iron nails, which, according to the Adventurers' Guild, represented known goblin lairs and goblin camps.

"Kroya, you've come at the right time. This is a newly released goblin extermination mission, and anyone can participate."

Miss Millie's eyes lit up when she saw Kroya enter the Adventurers' Guild, dressed completely differently from before. She called him over and explained.

"Recently, the number of goblins discovered in the wild has been too high, so the Adventurers' Guild has raised the level of the long-term goblin hunting missions we've been conducting." Miss Millie looked at Kroya, who was wearing light armor, with great interest; he looked quite charming. "We've made all known goblin information public to adventurers, allowing them to compete freely with each other."

Once an adventurer pulls out the nail driven into the map, that means he has the responsibility for that goblin camp; first come, first served.

"The reward for the mission is the same as for the previous long-term missions: twelve copper coins for a regular goblin."

With the intelligence support of the Adventurers' Guild, hunting goblins is definitely a lucrative job right now, and many adventurers have already set off to head towards the goblin lairs in the wilderness.

"If you want to participate, you'd better hurry."

The number of goblins is limited, and the goblin nests on the map can be cleared by other adventurers at any time. At this time, the number of spikes on the map is decreasing, and the adventurers are very enthusiastic about it.

"I see..."

Kroya thought to himself that if a large number of adventurers were to hunt down goblins, then even if there were many goblins, they might not be able to compete with the adventurers' desire for the bounty.

Kroya turned his gaze to the map again, but unfortunately, the adventurers crowding in front completely blocked his view, leaving him somewhat helpless.

"But only by finding the largest goblin nest can we wipe out all these goblins."

Simply clearing out the surface goblin camps or small goblin caves is only a temporary solution. Before long, other goblins will emerge from that large lair and resume their expansion. They are like mushrooms, spreading their spores everywhere and growing wildly wherever they find a suitable dark place.

"That's right." Miss Millie sighed. "But our intelligence agents haven't been able to find them, and we've issued exploration missions to adventurers, but with little success."

That's really strange.

Although Kroya was only a junior member of the Adventurers' Guild, he had heard how powerful the Adventurers' Guild's intelligence network was.

However, what the Adventurers' Guild cannot do, Kroya can.

[Bloodline Tracing (Temporary): Able to sense creatures that share the same bloodline as prey that it has killed]

With this temporary ability, Kroya was able to pinpoint the location of the goblins. If these goblins had indeed emerged from a large goblin lair, Kroya could locate the lair by killing enough goblins.

He could now sense that a goblin with the same bloodline as the giant mutated goblin he had killed was around Whitestone Town, but the guidance he sensed was somewhat blurry due to the distance.

However, as Kroa kills more and more goblins, the guidance he feels should become stronger.

Just as Croa was about to squeeze to the front of the map and find a target that was closer and easier to reach, a hand took down the target he had chosen first.

"First come, first served, kid!"

The adventurer said in a muffled voice,

Croa didn't say much, and then set his sights on another target, but it was also beaten to it.

  

"Don't blame me if you're too slow."

Another adventurer chuckled.

In the end, Croa secured a relatively remote target, and no one competed with him for it because the location was really not good.

When Kroya pulled out the iron nail, the tear left on the map miraculously healed, suggesting that the map was also a magical item.

In this way, as long as one adventurer is in charge of a goblin camp, other adventurers will have no way of knowing the location of that goblin camp.

"Would you like to join my team, sweetheart...?"

Kroya was about to set off when a voice called him back. Salis appeared there, leading a small group of adventurers.

"Thanks, but I'm more used to being alone," Kroya politely declined, knowing that this woman was after him.

"Don't refuse so quickly. I see you've also taken on the mission to wipe out the goblin camp. I imagine that's no easy task for a lone adventurer," Salis said confidently.

As Salis had said, for most low-level adventurers, clearing out an entire camp of goblins alone could easily lead to some unexpected problems. Therefore, most adventurers travel in groups. At this moment, the Adventurers' Guild was filled with the shouts of adventurers as they recruited reliable teammates.

"Why not join our team..." Salis continued, "We can wipe out multiple goblin camps at once, making our missions much more efficient."

The Adventurers' Guild has imposed certain restrictions on adventurers for this extermination mission. Each adventurer can only be responsible for one goblin camp at a time. To take on a new mission, they must return to the Adventurers' Guild and confirm that the previous goblin camp has been exterminated.

Going back and forth would waste a lot of the adventurer's time.

However, adventurers are clever; they can team up and complete multiple tasks simultaneously on a single trip, thus reducing wasted time.

From any perspective, joining a reliable adventurer's party is always beneficial—provided that the party is truly reliable.

Therefore, Salis was quite certain that Kroya would join her team. An adventurer team led by an elite adventurer like herself was absolutely reliable. Even if Kroya might not like her that much, what adventurer would turn down money?

The adventurer squad organized by Salis was almost the most powerful among the adventurer squads participating in this goblin extermination mission, because she was an elite adventurer. It is rare for elite adventurers to participate in this kind of extermination mission. For them, the rewards of exterminating goblins are not as good as hunting monsters in the Misty Forest.

"Thank you very much for your kindness," Kroya replied politely but firmly, "but I've decided to complete the mission alone."

After saying this, he left the Adventurers' Guild.

"That kid's really out of his mind!"

Several adventurers couldn't help but secretly mock Kroya for being so ungrateful.

Hunting goblins alone is far too inefficient; this kid probably won't kill many goblins by the end of the entire extermination mission.

"A guy who's good for nothing except his face..."
