Chapter 9

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

As a newbie dungeon BOSS, it was not easy to deal with. The rookie dungeon clearing rate over the years was only bleak single digits. However, even though Lin Mo was standing still, he did not pose any threat.

“Wahhh!”

The Goblin Boss was furious. Its eyes were bloodshot as it swung its spiked club at Lin Mo.

“-17!”

This attack dealt high damage of 17 points.

When the Armor of Thorns was activated, the damage returned to the Goblin Boss was not just this little bit.

“Hey, don’t embarrass yourself.”

Lin Mo sighed and raised the Hurricane Greatsword in his hand.

Puchi!

However, the damage it dealt was not as critical as the reflected damage. After all, it has to give the BOSS some face.

The Goblin Boss could not tolerate this offensive behavior anymore! It raised its huge spiked club and began to attack wildly.

However, Lin Mo’s HP was reduced by more than ten points at a time. Otherwise, he would be immune to damage. Only the Boss’s HP was falling like a waterfall.

“Ding! Congratulations on killing the powerful Goblin (Black-Iron Boss), experience points +2000!”

“Ding! You have leveled up to LV6 and received 3 free attribute points!”

The huge body fell, and a pile of glowing items dropped. Lin Mo immediately picked it up and examined it. There were a total of 3 Black-Iron equipment and a large pile of various medicine bottles.

As expected of a Boss-level monster, the items it gave were really good!

It was common knowledge that the drop rate of normal monsters was far lower than that of Bosses. However, the harvest this time really made Lin Mo excited.

The first piece of equipment was a pair of gloves for Mages, the most valuable equipment among all the classes!

Good stuff!

The rest of the equipment was for warriors.

[Name: Refined Iron Boots]

[Rarity: Steel]

[Level: 5]

[Endurance: 6]

[Agility: 7]

[Introduction: A pair of boots suitable for combat. It’s also very comfortable to experience.]

…

[Name: Battle Flag Shield]

[Rarity: Bronze]

[Level: 5]

[Defense: 20]

[Endurance: 11]

[Introduction: Are you ready to face a flood of attacks?]

…

Lin Mo was very satisfied with both pieces of equipment. After equipping the boots, he replaced the wooden round shield that he had not used for long. He wasalso looking forward to the tenth wave of invasion.

The BOSS appeared in the ninth wave ahead of time. If he guessed correctly, the tenth wave would be even larger. However, he had four super god-level passive skills, Lin Mo felt no pressure at all.

However, at this moment, the door of the village was opened again, and the village chief appeared.

“Another reward?”

“No!”

Village Chief rolled his eyes and sighed.” Sigh, thank you for saving us, hero. We made a regretful decision. ”

When he finished speaking, a large group of villagers rushed out of the village. All of them were carrying bags of luggage and looked like they were ready to run away.

“Thank you, hero!”

“Thank you, big brother!”

“Little brother, come with us!”

“…”

Lin Mo’s mouth twitched when he saw this.

Great! At this point, everyone was still prepared to run away to save their lives.

Perhaps this was the plot of the dungeon, so he did not pay much attention to it.

“Thank you for your kindness, but I won’t run away.” Lin Mo said seriously. “You must choose to believe me! ”

The storyline of the instance dungeon was not rigid and unchanged. In many instance dungeons, if the professional guided them properly, the score would increase after clearing the instance. Lin Mo didn’t know if there was such a setting in the newbie dungeon, but he wouldn’t lose any weight by saying a word.

“Hey.”

The village chief sighed again and said,” Don’t worry about us. Your actions have completely angered the Goblins. ”

“Is that true?”

Lin Mo looked at the Goblin corpses lying on the ground. They had clearly left peacefully.

“There’s no time, Village Chief.”

A villager reminded.

In response, the village chief said to Lin Mo as if he was giving his final instructions, “If you still have the will to fight, I won’t stop you. But I have to tell you something.”

“The Goblins ‘attack this time is extraordinary. It’s even more violent than before.”

“Even so, do you still want to fight?”

“Of course! It’s my duty to protect the village!” Lin Mo said with a serious expression.

Even if the villagers ran away, they would still be rewarded.

“Alright, in that case, let’s do it!” The village chief nodded and turned to point at a house in the village.” If you survive, you will be allowed to choose a piece of equipment from the warehouse as a reward.”

“Self-selected reward?” Hearing this, Lin Mo frowned slightly. This was a rare opportunity!

There were all kinds of opportunities in the dungeon, such as treasure chests. After opening them, one could obtain all kinds of props or equipment.

Obviously, there was no treasure chest in this newbie dungeon because there was no area to explore. However, through the development of the plot, Lin Mo could also obtain similar opportunities.

“Alright, take care, hero!”

The village chief suddenly burst into tears and grabbed Lin Mo’s hand. Such a tear-jerking scene made many villagers tear up.

Lin Mo couldn’t handle it. It was as if they were separated by life and death.

After that, the group of people started to flee. There were nearly a hundred people with their families, and this did not include livestock such as chickens, ducks, cows, and sheep.

Lin Mo watched as the countdown ticked by, and he realized that he didn’t have enough time.

“Could it be…” Lin Mo narrowed his eyes and vaguely guessed something.

He immediately caught up to the front of the group and stopped the village chief.

“Go back to the village!”

“Hero, you…”

“Stop talking nonsense and go back quickly!”

There was not much time left before the tenth wave. Lin Mo picked up the village chief and rushed into the village. The surrounding villagers were dumbfounded.

“Go back quickly. The Goblins have set up an ambush in the surroundings. Don’t leave the village if you want to live!”

Lin Mo’s words rang out, and the villagers, who were originally at a loss, immediately turned around and ran in the direction of the village.

That was the key to the dungeon storyline!

According to the countdown, if Lin Mo didn’t interfere, the villagers would have to escape, then, the tenth wave of goblins that suddenly appeared would slaughter them all! At that time, even if Lin Mo killed the goblin, the dungeon score would be affected. After all, the mission description was very clear!

Protect them well! They were referring to the villagers, not the village!

After throwing the village chief back into the village, Lin Mo summoned hundreds of villagers back under his constant command. When the last big yellow dog entered, the village gate finally closed.

“I made it.”

Lin Mo heaved a sigh of relief.
