Chapter 73 was a bit too easy.
The rest of the team were a bit confused about Wilder's idea.
It even has a humorous feel to it, like "how many steps does it take to put an elephant in a refrigerator?"
"I have an idea too."
Gru thought for a moment, not intending to relinquish his role as the comedic relief, and said, "What do you guys think about killing these kobolds outright?"
"..."
"Can you guys be serious for once?" Cyrion frowned.
"I'm serious, this is a new spell I've learned."
Wilder explained, "I can make one of the kobold leaders attack the other once."
"Alright, let's start with this tactic."
Cyrion still trusted Wilder, "but the kobold leader is a difficult-level monster after all, and I'm worried it will be hard to kill him in one hit."
He picked up a twig from the ground and, as usual, drew and laid out his tactics.
"Wilder first controls the two kobold leaders to attack each other, then Lyle follows up with arrows, trying to kill one instantly."
"Gru and I will keep the rest of the puppies occupied, creating space for you to hunt down the second leader."
The other teammates nodded.
Engage in close combat to draw enemy fire, then eliminate the main force from a distance – a classic decapitation tactic.
"Syrian, Gru, move to the back."
Wilder drew his staff and began to charge up a spell. "I'll cast Giant Transformation on you first."
"It's just a few puppies, isn't it unnecessary?" Cyrion hesitated for a moment.
"It never hurts to have an extra layer of insurance."
Wilder's staff slammed into Cyrion, and his body immediately began to swell until it was twice its original size.
Eight seconds later, the staff slammed down on Gru.
The dwarf giant makes his third appearance.
"Lyle, the Giant Transformation spell might affect your agility, so I won't use it on you."
"Oh well."
Lyle was seeing this spell for the first time, and he frowned as he looked up at Gru.
"hey-hey."
Gru chuckled smugly.
Wilder was very satisfied and felt even more that choosing the [Grow Larger/Shrinker Technique] was the right decision.
Regardless of the actual effect, at least it can help him gain experience.
Now that both warriors have received a buff, their experience from hunting kobolds will be credited to Wilder.
After hatching his little scheme, Wilder began to gather the power for the spell he was actually going to use.
【The Crazy Crown】
Four seconds.
The crystal on the tip of the staff emitted a faint green light.
"Ready."
He gently extended the tip of his cane out of the woods.
The two kobold leaders on the slope below were chatting idly, completely unaware of the approaching danger.
"Hala, la ha ha ba?"
(Brother, is there really a dragon in this forest?)
"Ya-ha! Ya-ya!"
(I don't know! I'll just reserve this spot for now!)
Before he could finish speaking, a beam of green light suddenly shot out from the forest and struck the kobold leader on the left.
The kobolds immediately stirred, roaring and searching for the enemy.
"Hala! Hala ya ha ya!"
(Big brother! Are you hurt?)
The leader on the right looked at his elder brother's body in alarm, but his elder brother remained motionless like a statue.
next second.
"Pfft—"
Suddenly, the elder brother plunged the dagger in his hand into the younger brother's abdomen.
"Hala, ba..."
(Big brother, you...)
The eldest brother regained consciousness instantly and looked in surprise at his second brother lying in front of him.
"Ha ya ha ha ba!"
(My poor second brother!)
"Hahaha, hahaha?"
(What just happened?)
……
"Why is it laughing when its companion is injured?" Gru asked curiously.
"Well……"
Wilder couldn't quite explain the allure of the kobold language, but his second [Crazy Crown] was ready, and it hit the big guy again.
The dagger was pulled from the second brother's abdomen.
"Pfft—"
Another stab.
"Hahahaha!"
(Second brother, why did I stab you again?!)
This time, the other kobolds discovered the source of the green light and swarmed towards it.
"It's our turn!"
Cyrion took a step forward, and his massive figure emerged from the dense forest.
The kobolds at the front, having probably never seen such tall humans before, were momentarily stunned.
A sharp and heavy blade had pierced its throat.
"roar!"
Gru also charged out of the dense forest like a mountain and a tsunami, brandishing his long-handled battle axe and charging into the dog-headed crowd.
A powerful vertical slash instantly split the other kobold in two.
On the other side, the kobold leader, who had been stabbed twice, was still alive when he struggled to his feet with the help of his elder brother.
Just then, another green light shot out from the forest and headed straight for the eldest brother.
But this time, the eldest brother, who was focused, was no longer under her control.
It seems that, like the Command, repeated application of the Crazy Crown to an object will be resisted by the consciousness.
however.
"call out!!!"
A cold arrow suddenly pierces through the tree canopy.
As if blessed by a hurricane, a faint white light appeared around the arrow, moving so fast that it was difficult for the naked eye to detect.
Once he regained his senses, the arrow had already pierced his second brother's wound with pinpoint accuracy.
"Ha ha!"
(Second brother!)
At the same time, in the dense forest, the staff was raised high, and three deep pink missiles shot out from the tip of the staff, still aimed at the second brother's abdomen.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
With three muffled thuds, the kobold's stomach was completely blown apart, and he fell silent.
"Aww!!!"
The eldest brother, having abandoned his second brother, was completely enraged.
Its pupils instantly turned crimson, its scales cracked under the bulging muscles, and its ferocious face was stained crimson.
【violent】
Kobold leaders can even command tribes of hundreds of people, relying on this barbarian-like superhuman ability.
It fixed its sights on the spot where the missile had just been launched, took a sudden step, and charged straight at Wilder.
"call out!"
Another arrow, carrying a faint glow, shot out from the treetops.
This arrow shone even brighter and moved even faster than before, reaching its target almost instantly upon release.
The heart of the kobold leader.
"Bang!"
As the arrow pierced its heart, a burst of intense white light exploded within its body.
Hurricane Arrow
Nearly complete.
The kobold leader suddenly stopped moving, frozen in place, mouthfuls of blood gushing from its mouth, clinging to its last breath.
Wilder didn't have time to charge up, so he immediately swung his staff and released the charged [Burning Hand] instantly.
A scorching tongue of fire burst forth from the tip of the staff, pouring directly into the hole in its heart.
"ha……"
The kobold leader uttered the last word before collapsing to the ground.
Meanwhile, Cyrion and Gru also ended their battle.
Ordinary kobolds pose little threat; for them, it's merely physical labor.
The battle is over.
I said…
Gru shook his neck, looking a little unsatisfied. "Wasn't that a bit too easy?"
"Um……"
Wilder nodded.
His first adventure in this world involved encountering kobolds.
Back then, the team consisted of two novice warriors, one novice ranger, and a clueless rookie mage.
And now.
A genuine intermediate-level warrior.
A ranger about to advance to the intermediate level.
A dwarf giant who has mastered two family-inherited combat techniques.
And a monk who is not what he used to be.
