Chapter 50: Tribal Treasure! The Birth of the Cunning Elder Goblin

Tang Zheng took it from the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo's hands with interest.

Looking at the primitive, fair bone necklace in his hand, unlike the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo, whose whole body was somewhat dirty, the surface of this primitive necklace was very clean.

He hadn't noticed at first.

Observing carefully at this moment, he discovered that on the surface of this ping-pong ball-sized bone, a faint, pale green light flashed by.

This is the magical luster belonging to a magic item.

"This is the bone of a Great-Horned Elk."

"The Great-Horned Elk is a type of monster in the depths of the jungle, possessing very large horns, just this big..."

The Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo explained the origin of this magic item while gesturing continuously with both hands.

From the pained expression on its face, one could see the importance of this magic item to it and the "Jike Tribe."

Under the other party's somewhat chaotic language, Tang Zheng finally understood the ability of this bone necklace.

According to the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo, the Great-Horned Elk with large horns is a type of monster that originally lived in the Tob Forest.

It was born with the ability to move freely in the jungle, so this magic item made from the skull of a Great-Horned Elk also possesses such an ability.

Hearing this.

Tang Zheng already knew what the ability contained in this bone necklace was.

"Forest Crossing"!

Like "Camouflage," it is another magic of the Faith series.

The specific effect of this magic is the ability to not be obstructed by plants in a jungle environment; Tang Zheng had forgotten whether it was Third Rank or Fourth Rank.

However!

This "Forest Crossing" magic is much more practical than "Camouflage."

Knowing that this bone necklace had such an effect.

Tang Zheng naturally had no intention of returning it, but he didn't wear it around his neck like the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo; instead, he wrapped it around his wrist.

Magic items need to be placed in a fixed position on the body to exert their effects.

For example, a ring can only exert its ability when worn on a finger.

But this bone necklace before him, while called a necklace, is actually just that ping-pong ball-sized piece of bone; calling it an ornament is not an exaggeration.

The string made of some kind of thin vine was just for the convenience of the Elder Goblin to carry it!

Even if this vine string were removed, it would have no impact on this magic item.

"Alright, the small talk is over."

"Now, it's time to talk about business."

After harvesting a magic item, Tang Zheng looked at the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo in a very good mood.

Business?

A look of confusion appeared in the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo's eyes.

"That's right." Tang Zheng nodded, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

The reason he didn't kill this Elder Goblin was just incidental; his real purpose was what he was about to do next.

"Since you came to the outer area to select excellent individual goblins, then I suppose you must be very familiar with all the goblin communities in the outer area."

"So, how about taking me there?"

Tang Zheng spoke with a full smile.

He had spent more than half a month in the forest hunting goblins, relying entirely on luck to keep bumping into them. The Tob Forest is simply too big!

The difficulty of moving in the jungle, the night environment, and other disadvantages greatly slowed down the pace of leveling up.

It was better before level ten, gaining at least one or two hundred experience points per day by hunting monsters and goblins. But as the level reached ten, it currently requires a full 5000 experience points to level up once.

If he continued to gain experience at the usual speed, he wouldn't be able to level up much in the remaining half a month.

The appearance of the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo gave Tang Zheng a new idea.

Regarding the locations of the major goblin communities in the outer area, who could compare to the goblins themselves?

That's right!

He now needed a guide, and the Elder Goblin before him who could speak and communicate was simply the most suitable candidate... no, it should be said, the most suitable goblin candidate.

"Human lo-lord, can't kill, kill..."

Seeing the smile on Tang Zheng's face, the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo felt as if it had seen a demon, and it spoke stammeringly while shivering all over.

As expected!

Possessing intelligence close to humans, it could understand from Tang Zheng's words what Tang Zheng wanted it to do next.

"This isn't a negotiation."

=9+Shu_ba

Tang Zheng stepped forward with a smile and raised his foot, stepping hard on the ankle of the Elder Goblin's left foot, crushing the bone.

"Ah!!!"

The Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo's scream echoed through the forest again, startling a series of bird calls.

After a bit of friendly communication!

The Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo quickly agreed to Tang Zheng's excellent proposal and immediately informed him of the location of the nearest goblin tribe.

Tang Zheng, satisfied, carried the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo and rushed toward the location of that goblin community.

A figure moved rapidly through the forest.

A large number of shrubs, bushes, and interconnected branches voluntarily parted, clearing a path for this figure.

A magic item with the "Forest Crossing" ability.

Tang Zheng's speed increased several times over; the disadvantage of his agility not being able to be utilized due to the jungle environment was immediately overcome at this moment.

And during this process, it didn't cause much noise.

"Forest traversal" combined with "camouflage" movement—as long as one has not mastered detection-type magic, there is almost no possibility of being discovered.

No wonder the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo had followed him for so long without him noticing at all!

In the time that followed, it was a massacre!

With the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo providing locations and the effect of the magic item, almost no goblin could escape from Tang Zheng's hands!

During this period.

Tang Zheng even wiped out a large goblin tribe with over two hundred goblins and five Ogres.

If it were before he had the "Forest Crossing" magic item.

Facing the siege of five Ogres, Tang Zheng would likely have had only one choice: to temporarily avoid their edge.

But with an ability like "Forest Crossing," the jungle environment was no longer an obstacle; relying solely on the advantage of speed, the five Ogres were easily kited and killed by Tang Zheng.

Ever since this large goblin tribe was slashed from head to tail by Tang Zheng's sword and all were killed!

The Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo, who had previously struggled, had completely given up and become an obedient guide!

How could Tang Zheng not be aware of the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo's little schemes?

With the greedy and cunning nature of goblins, if there were no resistance at all, that would be the problem.

However, seeing such a powerful large goblin tribe also wiped out by him, the Elder Goblin Hobgoblin Hobgoblin Mu Guo had clearly completely given up resistance.
