Chapter 37 Testing new items. (1/2)

A group of gray goblins was just standing around the re creature This creature was at least twice the size of what a regular deer would be and it had razor-sharp antlers to go with it It seeoblins were right next to its corpse

One of the humanoidon to a rusty longsword It was apparent that it was the leader of this group with one glance He shouted soe at the other ry and the other started backing away from the monster’s remains He obviously wanted first dibs on the juicyand the drool was running down the monster’s chin

Before it could sink its yellowy teeth into theIt quickly turned around and swung its longsword upwards This was just in tiy to the side The evolved goblin’s sword shook violently as it successfully defended itself

The other goblins started shouting while swinging their own rusty weapons around This wasn’t the end of the y fleards the oblins Its head exploded into chunks of round The assault continued and bolts of blue energy rained from above while the monsters panicked

The evolved variant was sh to take cover behind soical attacks Soon he saw it going through one of its tribe h one of its abilities, it was able to pinpoint the position that this attack caed forward, the rest of the scared goblins quickly recovered and followed after

With the eneave chase It had fought ed opponents before, it knew that it needed to close the distance before it could gain victory It used the trees and the other goblins as shi+elds and pushed towards fro froh it finally spotted its prey It was a single person in a black robe standing up on a ledge that was looking down into the forest The being looked huoblin leader saw the hu towards hiht and one of those energy ed to the side to evade it but it grazed past his shoulder and produced a wound

The goblin ave out a massive warcry The human moved his other hand forward and shot off another spell Theit to finally snap but it couldn’t stop the goblin’s rage-filled charge

It bolted forward activating some kind of skill that increased its speed and turned its skin blood red The huhtly before firing off another ed e to slow it down at all as it bounced off its now red skin

The goblin bolted forith large strides, the steep ledge didn’t seem like it would be able to stop its approach Theback into the forest The goblin wouldn’t let this eneet closer for the kill

It arrived on the top of the ledge in a matter of seconds, the skill it used had boosted its stats by a staggering a away against a tree It had hiht out so created some kind of barrier The ic shi+eld like that with its bare hands

At least that’s as supposed to happen Instead while charging forward, it stepped onto so soft underneath it Soon after an explosion occurred, the blast shot upwards while concentrating mostly on the creature’s foot It was blown clean off while the monster tuh to protect hi a foot along with the part of its leg It couldn’t ray color The hu took out some kind of parchment and pointed it at theas a sizzling hot arrow of fire energy connected with its body Thethe scrolls on the evolved monster till it drew its last breath

Roland looked at the dead oblin-infested forest yet again to test out his neeapons He didn’t expect to find a tier 2 oblin killing title evolved into ‘Goblin Slaughterer’

This forest was still dangerous and left alone by the city lord and his army There weren’t any far up the goblin infestation unless sotowards the city Most of the time the monsters didn’t leave the forest and just hunted other monsters or anie before he fired off his spell He thought that it oblin frooblin Luckily it was still low leveled for a tier 2 so hetraps around his casting area as he was afraid that so upon hiround and covered them with a small amount of dirt This special scroll when activated laid dormant until pressure was applied to it This was an improved version of his explosion rune that he used to detonate the mine wall back when he was stuck in it There were peculiar spells that could be triggered like this He just needed to isolate the components responsible and then add it to other runes He couldn’t actually pre-program them yet

This wasn’t the iteoblin saw those ite theular looking handle with a flat alular shaft above it It looked similar to a hand paddle

Yes, this was a sort of ‘wand’ that Roland had created Itwith intricate rune designs on the shaft part He had inscribed the mana bolt spell on two of these weapons to test how much they would last They were made from bronze as it was easier to ith

He had fired tens of oblins and he was non to about 30 of his ic wands worked but at a price This was the easiest attacking spell that was out there but it needed a massive amount of mana to be cast

He needed 75 h this wand he made The spell couldn’t be spammed too fast but if he had tands he could use theeably He had fired off about 10 oblins along with this hobgoblin

For the leader, he needed some of his runic scrollsThis neeapon already saved hiet a similar effect Thanks to this he saved a lot of money and resources Bronze was also quite cheap coic ink and special scroll paper

The reoblins had run away after their leader had been slain and none of the now He used this time to examine one of his mana bolt weapons He could see some deterioration to the runic inscriptions already and he knew that after 10

This was norular htly increase the uses up to a 30A weapon like this could be repaired and the runecrafting process would use up less e on these’

Roland rubbed his chin and then attached both of the paddle wands to his belt He was still in the forest so he needed to be vigilant He went through the hobgoblin and took the broken longsword hilt from its remains, he could se marble-sized mana stone, it would fetch a nice price if he sold it

There was also another use for it He held the shi+ny geer He could see thethe as even now

He knew that there was so these mana stones into runic or enchanted weapons An iteer than one without it It would also act as a battery allowing people with low mana to activate any inscribed spells more and at a lower cost The problem was that he had no idea how to do this He would need to either find an instruction et a weapon with a monster core in it and exaoblins were Their small bloodied bodies were everywhere Soon some other monsters would probably smell all this freshdown there to take a couple of ility wasn’t that high and he didn’t think he could outrun a pack of oblins weren’t the only creatures living in this forest and he had other ways of earningscrolls and he couldn’t defuse the after an hour but he couldn’t just leave therabbed a couple of rocks He just threw them at the spots the mines were in and detonated each one of theoblin body was tossed into his spatial bag that was now large enough to hold it There were several parts of this body that could be used as redients He could just sell it to his gnome boss and they would take care of the rest

He departed back to the city and was back before dawn He was really on the fence about being in a city with no Dungeon He thought that he would be done with huntinghis blacks monsters with them hireat for ained skills to lower casting tio spoken incantations Why would they want to use an item that used up their precious mana two or three times faster?They also worked in parties, the people in the them They also needed to save their mana to cast the more powerful spells which hat they were there for in the first place

Before going back to his workshop he went towards the adventurer guild The ga under his robe kept his body warht now and due to working out in the s as well He felt like he was on the taller side corowth spurt would stop he didn’t know His larger body size allowed him to appear older than he actually was so that was a bonus
