Volume 4: Chapter 49: Goblin’s Nest
"I think we collected what we needed." Keith cracked his neck as he stared at the pile of herbs he got.
"You really went all out with this." Gabriel laughed. He was collecting as well. Though, the enthusiasm Keith had compared to him was miles apart.
"We should search for the gate now." Keith placed all the herbs into his storage. It was time to head to the next floor.
"I heard that someone found it north of us." Gabriel could hear students shouting.
"I see, let's go." It was time to head off now. As the two walked, "Keith,"
"Yep." Keith didn't look at Gabriel. He only gave him a nod. Monsters. The two could sense it.
Swoosh!
"Thanks." An arrow flew at Keith's head from behind. But it never landed. Gabriel caught it without any trouble.
"Ho. That would have stung if that hit my head." Keith chuckled. It was a blunt arrow. It wouldn't pierce his skin. However, it would hurt like hell.
"You can have it back!" Keith chucked the arrow right back, hitting the goblin's forehead dead center!
"How much force did you use?" A blunt arrow wouldn't go through. Only if you use enough force!
"Enough." Keith shrugged his shoulders.
"I guess this is the part where the test becomes difficult." Gabriel raised his sword.
"Indeed." Keith did the same. Goblins started to come out of the brushes, surrounding the two.
"Guess we can obtain some coins."
"Let's hunt." Like that, the hunting became even more crazy.
"But this time, we don't have Mir to help us sniff." Keith laughed. This time, they had to be more wary about everything around them. It was simple to find the tunnel as they only needed to look at the goblin tracks and reverse it.
...
"Those two are going to the goblin nest?" Shire and the others were surprised. They knew what path they took.
"This is going to be interesting."
"Shouldn't we stop them?" They couldn't monitor the two if they entered the nest.
"Nope. There's no need to do that." Cadmus shook his head, "The two should be able to do it."
...
"..." Once the two entered the tunnel, Keith started to gesture with his hands. Gabriel understood. Right now, the two of them would be covert. Talking in a place like this would resound throughout the tunnel.
As they walked, the tunnel started to turn dark. However, it changed when the spotted torches. That meant they were near. As they continued to walk, Keith slapped Gabriel's chest, causing their movements to halt.
Hiding behind a rock, the two saw goblins approaching. And the goblins strolled away. Keith sighed as he gave signals.
They were close. Gabriel nodded. Like that, the two headed down the path the goblin came from.
Woah! Keith and Gabriel gasped at the sight. The number of goblins here passed the number the two fought before.
This was not normal. But the thing that surprised the two was what was in front of these goblins.
"Gwahh!" It was a large goblin and was much stronger than the others. Keith looked at Gabriel. The two knew what to do.
Escape. The two could beat it. But they had to think about it long term. They still had a test. If they wasted their stamina now, they would be screwed.
As the two started to move away, the two knocked down a rock!
Oh, no!
