Deities: Starting From Goblins

5 Chapter 5: These Green-skinned Youths Don’t Understand Martial Ethics!

“Merely Innate, and you dare to defy my Grandmaster’s might!”

The Mantis Person Executor Baxter let out a long roar, with his True Qi surging inside his body. In an instant, his size doubled, and his shell became even darker.

“Die!”

The next moment, Executor Baxter’s killing sword intent, which risked both his honor and life, soared through the sky. Electric lights danced on his Bone Sword, flickering with dangerous glints. In an instant, the heads of these large green-skinned creatures were about to be claimed!

“Be careful!”

Although Melinda Tang was weak, she was a Deity Player, so she had seen many martial arts practitioners demonstrate the power of “True Qi” in the Forum.

She knew that the self-explosive Qi of the Third-order master warriors who had refined True Qi was a life-consuming killer move.

If used properly, it could pose a significant threat to Fourth-order Transcendent life forms, let alone Goblins with only a Tier 2 Elite spiritual energy response…

The scene that followed filled Melinda Tang’s heart with despair,

“It’s over, it’s really over this time.”

Executor Baxter was filled with rage,

“How dare they! How dare they underestimate me!?”

Six Goblins, the size of brown bears, faced the explosive attack of a Third-order Sword Saint while offhandedly dividing three of their numbers to deal with the four Innate Mantis Swordsmen, leaving only three Goblin Elites to face Executor Baxter directly.

Angered to the point of laughter, Executor Baxter felt a slight loosening in his normally unbreakable barrier toward becoming a Sword Saint amidst his extreme rage.

“Today, I shall build the foundation of my Sword Saint with your blood!”

As Executor Baxter’s sword was about to touch the three Goblin Elites, intending to kill them all in one breath, he saw a scene that left him dumbfounded.

The three large green-skinned creatures emitted a silvery-grey, steel-like luster all over their bodies, and then a layer of similar grey luster began to envelop the six of them, connecting their lives like those of a Wolf Pack.

“Army Formation?”

“Just three… Six soldiers can form an Army?”

Despite his doubts, Executor Baxter’s explosive sword strike had already been unleashed, and there was no turning back.

“So what if it’s an Army Formation? It’s not like I’ve never encountered one before!”

“Back then, when the kingdom’s army besieged my Lightning Sect, they had this Army Formation too. And it was still pierced by the Sword Saint Leader!”

“Today, I, Baxter, will also follow the footsteps of the Sword Saint!”

The next moment, the leading Goblin Chieftain reached out with his hand, as large as a fan, and with a strong grip, he crushed the Bone Sword.

Before Executor Baxter had a chance to react, another forceful flick from the Chieftain shattered his watermelon-sized head.

Executor Baxter’s last thought was,

“How could they use an Army Formation to ambush and deceive an old man like me?”

“These green-skinned youngsters…”

“Have no respect for martial arts!”

Behind the Goblin Chieftain, the other three Goblin Elites effortlessly killed the four Innate Mantis Swordsmen by rupturing their internal organs.

The Goblin Chieftain, after stealing a glance and a pleasing smile, casually plundered the belongings of the five Mantis People before leaving the Welfare Institute as if nothing had happened.

Only when the six green walls had left did Melinda Tang let out a sigh of relief. With a sad face, she looked at the five dead Shadow Elves lying on the ground.

“Look at you, you’re supposed to be a high-level Monarch Race, even though you’re only First Tier. It’s not like I expect you guys to slay Third-order ones, but at least you should’ve dragged one of those Tier 2 Mantis Monsters down with you.”

“And what happened…”

“You didn’t get a single one!”

“You’re even worse than the Goblins!”

Even as she complained, Melinda Tang still used her slightly recovered Faith Points to incinerate the corpses of the Shadow Elves and collect their True Spirits, preparing to put them into the Shadow Altar in World Fragments for their rebirth.

This was her secret – she had a fragment of civilization.

After completing all this, she finally started getting excited. While comforting the frightened children in the Welfare Institute with the other volunteers, she regretted not having recorded the battle just now!

This is a goblin engaged in cross-tier combat!

She excitedly used the hyperdimensional mark to contact her best friend.

Amid the excitement, she suddenly thought of the male god she had been obsessed with since the first encounter,

“These goblins …”

“Could it be Logan’s?!”

“After all, Logan is so powerful, and he even rejected the invitation from the Cosmic War Department. He definitely has the ability to cultivate such powerful goblins!”

“Besides… he saved me. Who else would happen to come save me?”

Despite her fantasies, Melinda Tang was still slightly rational,

“Sigh, Logan and I entered the Hyperdimensional Game at the same time, and my high-level monarch race is only at the first tier.”

“His goblin could only be considered lucky for surviving in the world fragments.”

“It’s a pity that this player is so mysterious, otherwise, I’d like to ask how he cultivated his goblins. Maybe I could conquer Logan’s heart using this.”

In the end, Melinda Tang couldn’t hold back. So, she started a new post on the newly established T Forum.

…

[Log]: Your followers just finished a small-scale battle!

[Log]: Your followers killed 4 Tier-2 lives and 1 Tier-3 life!

[Log]: You gained +180 Faith Points!

[Log]: You obtained the “Slaughter Sword Intent” Special Effect, which has been altered to “Slaughter Will” for you!

…

Powerful auras swept through the inner district, including some legendary-grade aerial knights. Logan knew that this Level IV spatial rift was over.

Without waiting for the six elite goblins to return home, Logan directly opened a remote spatial rift and sent them back to the world fragments.

Afterward, he returned home and checked his log to find, to his surprise, that he had gained a will-type special effect this time,

“This is like bringing me a pillow just when I feel sleepy.”

“I was just worried about how to break through from the second to the third tier and let the less intelligent goblins comprehend will. And now it came.”

Logan held back his emotions and looked at the several message notifications on his hyperdimensional mark, one by one…

Some of the messages were even from female classmates he had hardly contacted before, asking if he needed help.

“Am I that weak?”

Logan shook his head with a wry smile.

It couldn’t be blamed for others; after all, prisoner breeds are indeed the lowest-tier existence in the Endless Void.

After all, how strong could it be, when ranked alongside dwarves, slimes, halflings, low-level skeletons which have almost no combat power?

Especially in the Hyperdimensional Game, where the most powerful goblin recorded under the gods of goblins has only reached the fourth-order transcendent level.

It still cost a huge price, consuming tens of thousands of goblin lives to create a fake extraordinary dragon-blood goblin.

Just as Logan was about to help the goblin tribe find relics, his hyperdimensional mark suddenly vibrated violently.

He quickly found the source of the vibration and discovered that it was the newly established T Forum that he’d been unknowingly added to. He couldn’t help but look serious,

“Strange, usually only when a significant event occurs and is marked as a major milestone event by the forum itself will such a vibration occur. And now…”

He couldn’t help but take it seriously. The last time this kind of vibration occurred was ten years ago when the unexplored world community was first marked as Y and later named [Strange Abyss] in the Abyssal Forum.

At that time, the Primordial Lord of the Strange Abyss suddenly made a move, instantly destroying the worlds of hundreds of Deity Players, including more than ten transcendent players!

And now, the T World Community he was in, being another new unexplored world community, also experienced the “milestone event vibration”…

Logan took a deep breath and thought,

“I hope it’s not a malignant event.”
