Chapter 6: Harvesting
In the dense forest, a figure slowly shuttled through it.
Sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, and the lush weeds hide a lot of things under the swaying light.
In this era, the destruction of forests by humans and other intelligent beings was not large, and the scope of human activities centered on towns and cities could only radiate to the surrounding areas of major roads at most.
Just like this forest, there are many small animals hidden among the lush trees, some birds are crying softly in the branches, of course, the wild is very dangerous, especially in such an extraordinary world, there will be some monsters with great power.
Rhodes walked slowly through the forest, following the instructions of the mission log, and he should have approached the mission location at this time.
It's about the edge of the forest.
Walking here, Rhodes found obvious signs of human activity in the vicinity, some trees had been cut down, and it was said that there was a quarry nearby, which was the property of the surrounding town of Gus.
However, in general, if trees are found to be cut down in the wild, it is likely that some intelligent creatures in the wilderness have established a gathering place, and even some large-scale creatures will set up camps.
Rhodes is not a wanderer, he doesn't have the skills to swim in the shadows such as stealth, but he is experienced and skilled in ambushes in the wild.
Walked around the neighborhood along the shadows of the forest.
He'd spotted a few bear goblins, big brown bears that weren't good at hiding themselves, but they were dangerous in the wild.
Bear goblins will ambush their opponents at any opportunity. When hunting, they usually send several scouts to search in front of the main force, and if they find prey, they will immediately report back and direct reinforcements to attack.
Bear goblins work together when attacking, and their tactics are not very clever but useful.

"Something is wrong!"
Rod jumped on a large tree with agility, and with the help of the height of the terrain, he took a closer look and found that something was wrong.
Normally.
The birth of bear goblins must be in the case of having a large number of goblin bases, and it is usually only a few medium-sized goblin tribes that can give birth to dozens of bear goblins.
These sturdy guys are mainly engaged in combat work among the goblin clan.
Although they also have intelligence, their intelligence is relatively low, and they are very good at fighting with well-developed limbs, and even some bear goblin leaders are good at human combat skills.
"There are four bear goblins on the rock on the left, armed with simple leather armor, and it seems that they still have some iron weapons in their hands......"
Rod frowned.
The goblins in the wilderness are actually very intelligent, and some large goblin tribes even build strong camps out of stone, and they know how to make fires and equipment, simple leather armor, sharp bone spears, and some rudimentary iron weapons, they are all good at it.
What's even more exaggerated, for example, Byron Castle in the Shadow Realm was formed by a group of goblin merchants.
But bear goblins don't do that.
Some bear goblins are able to fight with weapons and are proficient in certain combat techniques, but their behavior is generally instinctive, and they are not good at manufacturing.
"These bear goblins are scattered from some goblin tribe!"
Considering these circumstances, Rod was quick to come to a conclusion.
The small bear goblins that appear near Guth are believed to have been dispersed from some distant goblin tribe.
Only these simple-minded, well-limbed creatures would brainlessly attack the human quarry, presumably attracted by the food in the workers' quarters in the quarry.
The edge of the forest.
The four bear goblins, dressed in simple leather armor, lay lazily on a huge rock basking in the sun, and not far from them, a few simple wooden houses were randomly set up.
Outside the hut, you can also see quarrying tools such as hoes and iron picks.
Farther in the forest, there were more black shadows shaking, and it should be other bear goblins.
It seems that they have considered this new territory, and if you look closely, you can even find some human bones, and the big guys seem to have noticed that weak humans are often sent to death in this place, and are ready to put down roots here.
Rumble!
A roar mingled with the air rang out.
- Flowing Heart: Leap! (Blade of Extreme)
Rhodes jumped out of the tree like a meteorite with the decapitating sword in his hand, and the sword was majestic, and it slammed directly into the four bear goblins.
"Roar!"
The four-headed bear goblins are naturally good at fighting, and they are the lucky ones who escaped from a tragic war, and they have some strong intuition about fighting, and they reacted almost as soon as Rhodes appeared.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
The mysteries of the sword soul's flowing heart have made a qualitative leap after Rhodes advanced to level 30, coupled with the increase of the "Extreme Breaking Blade", the explosion of the Sword Master's profession, and the strength of Rhodes, this blow instinctively split the head of a bear goblin.
Blood and brains splattered out.
Rod's expression remained unchanged, the big sword in his hand was deflected, and his body rushed towards the other bear goblins, charging against the three bear goblins.
- Break the army and ascend to the dragon! (Blade of Extreme)
This is a skill that can only be used by Rhodes after he advances, the big sword slashes, and the powerful phantom of the rampage forces the three-headed bear goblin into a corner, and in an instant, Rod charges up with one hand.
When the three-headed bear goblin floated in the air at the same time, Rod shouted a thrash and directly killed the three-headed bear goblin.
"Roar!"
The smell of blood in the air dissipated, coupled with the angry roar of the bear goblins just now, which attracted the attention of those bear goblins in the distance, and a bear goblin with leather armor rushed out one after another.
Some bear goblins still held human iron battle axes and war knives in their hands, and when they saw Rhodes, they immediately formed an encirclement formation and surrounded them.
"Humph!"
Rhodes glanced around at the bear goblins, about twenty of them, mostly armed with rudimentary leather armor and weapons.
Perhaps these creatures comparable to brown bears really come from some large goblin tribe, otherwise these small goblin tribes may not really be able to provide them.
"-Flowing: Rise!"
Rod's body shook and his figure disappeared in place, the decapitating sword cut through the air, and a blow slammed into one of the strongest bear goblins, Rod looked indifferent, and slashed upward, and the bloody organs fell under the blow.
The surrounding bear goblins were stimulated by the blood and pounced.
After killing the strongest one in [Wave Perception] with one blow, Rhodes opened up the distance with a three-stage slash, and used skills such as Silver Light Falling Blade, Cross Slash, and Moonlight Slash without gaps.
The sword god's control of the skill output was just right, and the decapitating sword lifted the weight in his hand, only to see the blade of Rhodes' sword slide, and one bear goblin fell to the ground in response.
A low roar of fear rang out.
These bear goblins looked at the human in front of them with a hint of fear in their eyes, the terrifying big sword, with unparalleled explosive ability, almost instantaneously killed a dozen goblins.
Juggernaut is known for its high burst and high armor penetration on the battlefield, even if it is a mage's spell barrier, Juggernaut can break through it after touching his face, and these bear goblins are almost chopping vegetables and melons in Rhode's hands.
"Roar!"
With a low roar of fear, the few remaining bear goblins dropped their weapons and turned around and ran towards the back.
Seeing this scene.
Rod's face was expressionless and he threw the greatsword diagonally, and when he threw it skillfully, the greatsword drew an arc in the air, and the three-headed bear goblin fell to the ground violently, and blood gushed out and stained the land red.
Coldly walking over, pulling out the decapitating sword, he glanced at the forest behind him, and in an instant, the figure headed in the direction of the bear goblin escape, and there seemed to be a group of scattered kobolds in that direction.
The mission requirements are to clean up the surrounding monsters.,Just go and harvest.,After all, it's all experience.。
After Rhodes left.
In the forest behind him, the sound of squirming leaves was heard, and several militiamen who served as sentinels in Guth Town swallowed their saliva and ran towards the town with a somewhat pale face.
