Rachel's retort left Aileen's face pale.
She knew all too well what kind of fate awaited them.
No wonder Rachel had warhem o let themselves be surrounded by Goblins.
However, the five of them were unaware that a pair of eyes was watg them from the depths of the darkness.
In the heart of the forest, less thay meters from the group.
A shadow could be faintly seen behind a rge tree.
The shadow hiding behind the tree was Li Meng.
"This feels like a world of swords and magi another realm!"
Secretly the human adventurers by the campfire, Li Meng thought to himself.
Two men wore armor, with swords and shields, and a rge axe by their sides.
They were likely of the knight and warrior professions.
The st man wore browher armor and a hood.
Beside him y a finely crafted short bow.
A small blue crystal was embedded in the bow.
The other two women wore bd white robes.
The white-robed mage seemed to be of a priestly profession.
This was evident from the religious ors on her chest.
The bck-robed mage robably the kind of magi on in otherworldly novels.
Both of their staffs were adorned with crystals.
In the forest, Li Mely observed the panel information of the five.

"The mage is indeed fragile!"
The bck-robed female mage's patributes made Li Meng mutter to himself.
Finally, Li Meng looked at the female priest.

This woman had learoo many skills.
The priestess's array of crystal skills made Li Meng pin inwardly.
"No wohey dared to venture deep into the Goblin Forest, they're irong!"
While amazed at the strength of the five, Li Meng deeply felt the weakness of the Goblins.
Among the higher Goblins, only the Goblin King was of elite rank.
The rest were of ordinary rank.
Above the elite rank, there must be even stronger ranks.
Li Meng recalled the rank of Bck Robe, "Saint."
The power of the Saint rank was clearly tless times strohan the elite rank.
"Damn, how is anyone supposed to py like this?"
The thought of humans strohan the elite rank gave Li Meng a headache.
"Never mind, let's first test the humans' bat methods!"
When the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a way through; for now, he could only take it oep at a time.
Iure, the tribe and the pi legion of the Principality of Ilysis would iably csh.
The human army would surely have "Crystal Apostles" akin to adventurers.
Gathering bat intelligen "Crystal Apostles" in advance was very necessary.
In the darkness, Li Meng quietly retreated into the depths of the forest.
Time slowly passed, and the night grew deeper.
The campfire in the forest remained burning, never extinguishing.
The adventurers did not all sleep at once.
They took turns keeping watch.
Four slept on the ground while o guard.
Rachel, sitting by the campfire, cradled his bow and arrows.
He was gently wiping the bow with a soft cloth.
Suddenly, Rachel's expression shifted slightly as he was ing the bow.
He stood up, staring ily into the depths of the forest.
Time ticked by, and the forest remained silent.
"Was it a small animal?"
Rachel muttered softly by the campfire.
"No, something's wrong!"
Rachel's face ged.
He raised his bow and drew the string.
The moment he released the string, a gust of wind exploded.
A small wind bde shot out with a pierg whistle.
The visible transparent wind bde surged into the depths of the forest.
"Waah!"
The moment, a cry of pain echoed from the forest depths.
A Goblio the ground, screaming.
Its entire right arm had been severed from the shoulder.
The cries of their panion ehe Goblins in the nearby forest.
"Waah!"
The dark forest suddeed with the Goblins' cries.
"Wake up, it's Goblins!"
Hearing the familiar "Waah" roars from the forest depths.
Rachel by the campfire quickly woke his panions.
The four were startled awake, jumping to their feet.
"Whoosh!"
At that moment, the sound of tless projectiles filled the forest depths.
"Captain!"
Rachel shouted loudly.
He rapidly drew his bow several times.
Oer another, magical wind bde arrows shot out, rushing into the forest depths.
Several Goblins in the forest were suddenly split in two.
Some Goblins were decapitated, while others were sliced in half.
Wherever the wind bdes passed, even the shrubs were cut in half.
"I'll hahis!"
The sound of projectiles in the forest made Odyssey's face ge.
He stepped forward swiftly, raising his shield.
"Imperable Wall!"
A golden light wall suddenly expanded from the shield.
F a magical light shield five meters wide and three meters high.
The appearance of the light shield dispelled the surrounding darkness.
Bolts shot out from the forest, striking the light shield.
The bolts that hit the light shield were deflected.
"Are these... bolts?"
Seeing the bolts fall to the ground, Rachel's expression ged slightly.
"This isn't good, Martha, full defense!"
Just as Rachel finished speaking.
The sound of projectiles filled the depths of the forest in all other dires.
Martha frantically waved her staff.
Seeing there was no time, Aileen waved her staff.
"Arum Ha!"
A t that sounded like a reprimand echoed through the forest.
A whirlwind suddenly arose around the five.
A visible whirlwind swirled around them.
Sweeping up a rge amount of dead leaves and dust.
The bolts shooting in from all dires were blown away by the whirlwind.
