High Goblin
Power Level: 3.5
Lifeforce: 50/80
Ability:
Cunning Plan
Utilizing their hawk eyes, High Goblins can survey the field from above. The High Goblin cannot move when this ability is activated, rendering them vulnerable.
This ability also allows High Goblins to transmit their plan directly to nearby goblins, coordinating their movements and attacks with precision.
"A High Goblin..." Alex quickly identified the monster leading the group.
He knew this meant he needed to finish all of them quickly.
If the High Goblin used her ability, it would become a huge problem.
Even if Alex and Emily could overwhelm them in strength, they could still strategically retreat and then come back with a bigger force.
Emily frowned at the appearance of the High Goblin, meaning the hidden boss, the High Goblin Lord, was here.
Every time hunters entered a dungeon, the area always changed, making mapping the dungeon useless.
Thankfully, it wasn\'t entirely random; the type of monsters they encountered was always similar.
But sometimes, a new monster type appeared.
When this happened, the boss would change, which hunters called the hidden boss. This offered better loot, but it also meant the dungeon\'s difficulty would be higher.
These kinds of things rarely happened; even out of 100 dungeon dives, barely one or two instances would encounter a hidden boss.
Emily wasn\'t sure whether to call them lucky or just unlucky.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have at least brought Zold with us."
Alex used his ability to calculate the plan he had in mind.
A smirk formed on his lips since the success rate of his plan was at least 90%, and he should be able to capture at least half of them, with his biggest target being the High Goblin.
Seeing her brother gazing at the High Goblin made Emily say to Alex\'s mind with a teasing tone, "I never knew you had that kind of kink.
Makes me wonder if MingYue really looks like what you say."
Alex\'s vein popped at his sister\'s remark, "The High Goblin may be attractive, but that\'s not my type."
"See, you just admitted it looks attractive," Emily laughed. She just wanted to tease him.
The High Goblin did have a perfect figure and a good face, but the skin was still blue, making her look like an alien. Emily knew her brother wouldn\'t be interested.
Realizing his blunder, Alex changed the topic. "You know that\'s not what I meant. Forget it. Check the plan I sent to your implant."
Both of them had Erx chips implanted, allowing them to communicate telepathically when they were close.
Checking the plan, Emily agreed. Alex then took out a rifle and targeted the area around the goblins.
BANG!
The bullet pierced through the air, directly hitting its target, the ground, right in the middle area.
BOOM!
A blinding flash of light exploded in the area, leaving all the goblins stunned and dazed.
Emily wasted no time; she sprinted toward the area.
Although using her ability, she could easily decimate all of them, they wanted to keep it for emergencies.
A spear then appeared in her hand, her first target being the High Goblin.
With a swift motion, Emily spun her spear, hitting the High Goblin right in the head with the back of the spear.
She hit her consecutively in the chest and leg.
BAM! BAM!
Caught off guard, the High Goblin was too late to fight back. Pain spread all over her body before the world turned dark for her.
While Emily did this, Alex also got close to the field. Seeing the High Goblin sent flying toward him as planned, he threw the Awe Cube.
The moment it made contact, the High Goblin turned into light, entering the cube. The cube then started vibrating a few times before it stopped.
\'Yes, success,\' Alex said in his mind.
Alex had modified the Awe Cube to activate upon contact with the target.
After a successful capture, Alex could read all their information in real-time as long as the cube was close to him. However, he knew he didn\'t have time to do that now.
As the dazzling light disappeared, Emily didn\'t stop; she started going for the kill, her next target being the Goblin Archer.
Her spear pierced through the Goblin Archer\'s head, killing it instantly. She then threw the body at another Archer.
The Goblin Rider was the first to regain their senses, but Alex didn\'t give them any moment to act.
He now leaped into the air and smashed his hammer down on the rider\'s head.
Alex had already reduced the weight, hoping he could knock the Goblin out, but he could still hear the sound of the Goblin\'s skeleton cracking.
Alex threw the Awe Cube toward it.
He didn\'t wait to see if the capture succeeded or not since the wolf the rider was on was still undamaged; the success rate wouldn\'t be high.
"Awoooo!!!!" the other wolf rider made their wolf use its skill, "Howl of the Pack."
The ability resonated, waking all the goblins from their daze.
Emily, who was now beating the other Archer, turned her gaze toward the Goblin Warrior.
Her body arched back like a professional athlete, and she threw her spear with finesse and deadly accuracy toward the soldier.
Alex could see from the many red circles starting to approach them that they would quickly be surrounded; he had no time to hold back.
"It\'s harder than I expected," Alex said to himself.
Based on his plan, he would shoot the flash bullet, capture the High Goblin, hit the Goblin Rider to knock it out, and then move to the other rider before they could cast their skill.
In his calculations, his body should have been able to move like that, but controlling his strength while moving at top speed was easier said than done.
