15. Kobold

Lin Wen found a grocery store and bought a magic map, this kind of map can not only see the rough topography of the entire continent, but also select a piece to see the detailed terrain of the selected area, which is very convenient.

"Hello, dear sir, do you have time?" Just as Lin Wen walked out of the grocery store and was about to leave the city, he felt that someone was talking to him.

"You're talking to me?" Lin Wen pointed to his nose and asked the man in front of him.

"Yes, my name is William? Pist, I overheard your conversation with Sheriff Dohan just now, so I wanted you to do me a favor. ”

"Tell me about it."

"My brother and I have opened a new pharmacy in Edin City, and I'm looking for some big candles in the area right now to extract the wax from them. I've heard about the Fatala Mine, so could you please help me collect some big candles from the kobolds? The pay is easy to say. ”

Anyway, by the way, Lin Wen had no reason to refuse, so he took the mission card from William's hand and inserted it into the newly purchased mission log along with the magic map. The task card is an item issued by the adventurer's guild to simplify the task issuance process, the task publisher first establishes a task in the adventurer's guild, buys the task card, and then can directly hand the task card to the adventurer, and the reward is issued by the task publisher, and the adventurer only needs to take the task card to the adventurer's guild to settle points.

Fathala Mine: Investigate the Fathala Mine, then return to Medin City to report to Sheriff Duhan. Reward 5 silver coins, 1 level 4 Pale Crystal, 30 mercenary points.

Kobold Candles: Collect 8 large candles for William of Medin City. Reward 8 silver coins, 2 level 6 pale crystals, and 30 mercenary points.

Kobolds are very weak creatures, so tasks involving kobolds generally don't pay much, but with Lin Wen's current level, he can't receive any high-level tasks.

On the map, the Fatala Mine is located three kilometers west of the city of Medin, under a small hill, and it takes you to cross a shallow river and a small forest to get there, and if you're lucky, you can expect to be back in two hours.

After buying two bottles of water, Lin Wen went directly on the road with a gun on his back, went out of the city from the west gate of Medin City, one went west, crossed the official road and entered the woods, the woods were lush with vegetation, and wild boars could often be seen wandering in the forest, Lin Wen did not attack these fat big guys, but walked in a straight line in the direction of the Fatala Mine.

Soon, the dense woods began to thin, and the abundance of metals around the mine would make it difficult for the trees to survive, indicating that Lin Wen was close to his destination.

Gently picking away a cluster of bushes, Lin Wen hid behind the bushes and carefully observed, directly in front of him two strange-looking dwarf creatures were digging aimlessly with a mining pickaxe.

The dog's head, small stature, with a mouse-like tail, wears a rudimentary garment sewn from red rags, and stares at an arm-thick candle on its head. There is no doubt that these two monsters are kobolds.

Kobold Miner, level 5, 75 health.

Lin Wen took off the rifle behind his back and shot at the kobold's head on the left.

"Phew!" There was a soft sound, and the kobold's head on the left was smashed into pieces. Lin Wen carefully experienced the feeling of shooting just now and nodded secretly, the effect of refined light projectiles is better than ordinary light projectiles, not only is it powerful, but it is basically a straight line when it is shot, and the effective shooting distance is estimated to reach 100 meters.

The sudden death of his companion frightened the other kobold to his feet, and the dwarf and ugly monster threw away the pickaxe in his hand, turned around and ran in the direction of the mine, but before he could take two steps, a ball of blood broke out on the back of his neck, and the shot almost broke his entire neck, and the kobold fell to the ground and died.

These two guys are kobold guards, specially used to guard around the territory, and now that these two guys have appeared here, it seems that the news that the Fatala mine has been occupied by kobolds is already a sure thing.

Lin Wen pushed aside the bushes and walked out, picking up two thick candles from the ground, which the kobold had lit on their heads in the cave for lighting.

After putting away the candles, Lin Wen continued to walk in the direction of the mine. The task of Duhan, the sheriff of Medin City, has been completed, and now he can go back with only six more candles.

"Don't rob me of my wax ......!" The kobold rushed towards Lin Wen with a small pickaxe in his hand, and then only heard a "bang", and the kobold was knocked to the ground by a shot, and spit out the last word with difficulty before dying...... Candle"

"Little things talk a lot." Lin Wen neatly cut off the candle on the kobold's head with a dagger.

After a full circle around the mine, Lin Wen found that not all kobolds had candles on their heads, there was only one candle in about four or five kobolds, and Lin Wen killed all the kobolds wandering around the mine and there were still two candles left to complete the task.

Do you really want to go in? Looking at the black entrance of the mine, Lin Wen didn't know the bottom of his heart, the clanging sound in the cave was loud, obviously there were a large number of kobolds inside, and the guns were not suitable for dealing with a large number of enemies in a small environment, if the mine was blown up with grenades, it would only be more troublesome.

But just as he was thinking about the solution, Lin Wen suddenly saw three figures coming out of the mine, so he hurriedly hid behind a tree. The three who came out were all kobolds, but these three kobolds were bigger than the kobold miners they had met before, especially the guy standing in the middle, who was actually holding a rough staff in his hand, and was wearing green clothes that were different from ordinary kobolds, which seemed slightly intimidating.

Kobold Sacrifice, Level 7, Rare Elite, 682 Health.

Kobold Guard, Level 6, Elite, 441 HP.

It was actually an elite squad composed of three elites, which was countless times more difficult to deal with than ordinary kobolds.

After walking out of the mine, the kobold priest in the middle screamed a few times, as if calling his companion, and after waiting for a while, he found that there was no response, so he opened his throat angrily and roared, and then shot a fireball into the sky.

Boom ~ boom! The fireball exploded like fireworks in mid-air, and the sound caused by it would not be missed within a radius of 100 meters, but all the kobolds around him were killed by Lin Wen, and now it was impossible for any kobolds outside the mine to respond to the kobolds' sacrificial shouts.

But kobolds don't, and there are elves disguised as humans.

Whew~ There was another sharp sound of breaking the air, but this sound was much louder than the fireball sent by the kobold sacrifice, and the kobold priest just turned around with a surprised face, and saw a big head and a small body, with 4 small wings, an iron guy dragging a long tail flame flew over.
