Chapter 20 The Price of Arrogance

There is an occasional cold wind in the dark and narrow cave, and the unknown Shirai Mori skeletons piled in the corner are even more breathtaking.

The young priest clenched his staff, swallowed secretly, looked at the most heartless young swordsman in front of him, and felt a faint regret in his heart for taking part in this adventure.

"Watch me kill all these low-level goblins!"

The young man at the front was holding the hilt of the sword with an excited look on his face. He said to the warrior girl next to him with joy, "These low-level monsters can't even catch my sword. The lady at the counter of the Adventurer's Guild actually asked us to clean the sewers and wait until we finish." Let’s see what her expression looks like during this mission.”

"Okay, okay, you should leave quickly." The warrior girl was more cautious, looking around from time to time.

The conversation between the two became more and more distant. The mage girl pushed up the glasses on the bridge of her nose, turned her head and said to the little priest expressionlessly: "Speed ​​up, they are all gone."

"Yes, yes!" The little priest was nervous and trotted forward.

Suddenly, the little priest looked back.

"What's wrong?" The mage girl was confused. She always felt that this trainee priest was very timid when he was startled. He was far inferior to her, a top student who graduated from the magic academy. But as a teammate, she still had to care a little.

"Later, there seems to be a sound from behind." The little priest said timidly.

"Are you kidding," the mage girl frowned, "We have come all the way."

"Ah!" the little priest screamed and quickly backed away.

"Hey hey hey~" Several short goblins suddenly sprang out from the dark corner, carrying simple leather tools. One of the goblins also held a bright dagger in his hand.

The noses of these goblins kept twitching, as if they smelled the scent of human women. They stuck out their tongues one by one, and their expressions gradually became wretched, and they had a tendency to surround the two of them.

"You're here just in time!" The mage girl's eyes lit up, and she stretched out her wand to chant a spell. Unexpectedly, the group of goblins had no martial ethics and used their short and flexible talents to pounce on the mage one after another.

Two goblins hugged the mage girl's knees, the other two wrapped around her arms, and the last one grasped the dagger and was about to sprint.

"Get away from me!" The mage girl tried to shake off the goblin on her limbs. She was frightened, and her face lost all the confidence it had just now.

Just when the dagger suddenly hit the abdomen, the crystal at the front of the staff burst out with light, and a burst of flames rushed out, burning the goblin wielding the dagger into charcoal in one fell swoop!

"Hahaha, just a low-level monster." The mage girl covered her injured abdomen with one hand and continued chanting. More goblins came out of the surrounding corners and threw her to the ground without fear of death.

"Don't worry, I'm here!" The swordsman boy, who had long been separated from his teammates, hurriedly turned back after hearing the voice, pulled out his long sword and swung it at the goblins surrounding the mage girl.

The swordsmanship that I practiced on weekdays had long been forgotten in this tense moment, but with the sharpness of the long sword, I was able to kill several goblins in one fell swoop.

The warrior girl behind him wanted to step forward to help, but because the cave was narrow and the swordsman boy opened and closed with his sword, he was unable to enter the battle.

"Hey! You should pay more attention." The warrior girl dodged the edge of the sword and complained.

"It's just a Goblin, I can do it alone!" The young swordsman's adrenaline surged during the fight. Seeing that the Goblins around him were getting farther and farther away from him, his movements of wielding the sword became more and more exaggerated.

"How is she?" The warrior girl, who was unable to join the battle for the time being, asked the young priest, "Can she use the miracle of healing?"

"I've used it!" The little priest looked at the mage lying on the ground with heavy abdominal bleeding, and cried: "I don't know why, but it has no effect at all."

The warrior girl wanted to say something, but she heard a 'ding' sound as gold and iron clashed.

Suddenly looking back, he realized that the young swordsman had swung his sword too hard and accidentally hit the raised stone wall above the cave, causing the sword to fall away.

At this moment, the surrounding goblins were like hyenas that had found the weakness of their prey. They bared their fangs and pounced on him. They hurled daggers and wooden sticks at the boy frantically. In the stunned effort of the warrior girl, they had already smashed the boy.

Half dead!

"Get out!" The warrior girl's blood surged, she waved her fists and feet to meet her, and shouted to the young priest: "You guys leave quickly! When you get out of the cave, I will come to the rear!"

The girl's martial arts moves were mastered in actual combat, and she defeated several goblins one after another. Suddenly, she noticed a dark wind blowing behind her, whipped her leg, turned around and kicked upwards.

If it were an ordinary goblin, this kick would definitely make his mind blossom, but...

"Hiss~" The girl only felt that her ankle was clamped by a huge force, and she was in great pain. When she caught sight of the huge thing holding her from the corner of her eye, she was thrown against the cave wall like a broken sack.

"Woooo." The image of the goblin pounced ferociously, tearing the warrior's clothes was reflected in the little priest's eyes. It wasn't until the white flesh burst into blood that the little priest screamed, tried his best to help the mage girl and ran outside.

"The smell of blood is very strong." Orton sniffed as he just entered the cave. In such a narrow space, the smell circulating in the air will be more obvious.

"There are voices of humans and goblins over there." The tips of Nita's long ears trembled, pointing to the depths of the cave.

"It seems that a team of adventurers came to explore this cave before us." Yas smiled easily. In his opinion, even an adventurer could kill low-level monsters like Goblins.

"I feel the breath of miracle." Sharina also said.

At this time, a red shadow quickly flashed past everyone and reached the depths of the cave.

"Huh?" Nita hurriedly followed, "Noel, what did you find?"

Just as Orton was about to pull out his heavy sword, he glanced around the cave and then pulled out the short blade he carried with him to follow.

"Ha" Yas felt inexplicably embarrassed and asked Sharina, "Have they always been like this?"

"Let's go quickly," Serena moved her short legs, "Noel can't go wrong."

"Yes, really." Yas was shocked. The speed of the knight girl just now was not comparable to that of a white porcelain adventurer. Even the silver-level elf archers behind her could not keep up.

Not far away.

The little priest was knocked down with stones by the goblins chasing behind him. When he turned around and tried to get up, the goblins had already bitten the mage girl.

Frightened, scared, confused, stunned.

The young priest thought about the high spirits of the swordsman boy, the confidence of the warrior girl, and the aloofness of the mage girl. All of them were far less impactful than the scene in front of him.

As a trainee priest in the Earth Mother Temple, she only has the miracle of 'protection' and knows nothing about attack skills. When the goblins finish ravaging the mage girl, will she be the next one?

"No, don't."

The gathered fear made the little priest unable to control the body, the nerve signals were disordered, and urine was excreted from the body.

Soon, the goblins surrounding the mage girl twitched their noses. The fishy smell coming from females of other races was more attractive than the smell of blood.

"Hehehehe~" The ferocious little green-skinned dwarf goblin smiled slyly and gathered towards the little priest.

"boom!"

The next moment, a red shadow swept over with an extremely strong wind.
