Chapter 3: Peach and Cantaloupe

The forest was very quiet at noon. The sunlight shone through the dense leaves, forming spots of light on the ground.

Bursts of sound came from the originally quiet green shade, the sound of branches being crushed.

"Brother, do you think that if the three of us secretly accept the missions from the Adventurer's Guild, will our father be angry?"

"Father is too cautious. He only lets us do odd jobs like finding cats and dogs and cleaning up garbage. Only those who kill monsters can be qualified adventurers!"

Mana said this very easily, and at the same time he drew out his sword and swung it excitedly, cutting off a lot of branches and leaves.

My father was just being too cautious. It was just killing some goblins. How dangerous could it be?

Those ugly and disgusting guys were as stupid as slugs and could be chopped down with just a swing of the sword. He could easily deal with them even if he was alone.

Seeing Mana's leisurely look, Ibe gradually felt relieved and touched the longbow in his hand eagerly.

This is her first adventure and she hopes it will leave a happy memory.

"Sister Tia is the best. She is willing to accompany us to kill goblins. Other adventurers are unwilling to take such low-level tasks."

Next to Yibei, there is a beautiful girl with blonde hair and white skin holding a magic wand.

The legs wrapped in long boots are more than one meter long, with a perfect golden ratio figure. The delicate little face is engraved with big gem-like eyes, which makes her look both royal and sweet.

"No. The other members of the team are on vacation, and I'm bored, so I'll just play with you guys."

Tia held the staff in her left hand, and her rich nutrition bounced up and down with her steps. Yibe held her arm affectionately, and her little peach touched the cantaloupe.

The overly intimate action made Diya very shy, and her face turned red. She said in a mosquito-like voice: "Miss Yibei, are you getting too close..."

"Hehe, Miss Tia is so shy. I thought you would be a very open-minded woman since you take risks every day." Yibe said mischievously, not restraining her actions at all, and even got closer.

Tia looked embarrassed, clutching the corner of her clothes, and was extremely shy, like a frightened cat. Her appearance made people want to bully her.

I didn't expect that the popular goddess in the Adventurer's Association would have such a little girl's posture, which is really inconsistent with her long legs and nutritious image.

Seeing Tia's hypocritical look, Yibei said to himself.

[Why are you pretending? You're like a chaste girl, hanging out with men all day, you've been played around by men for a long time, right? ]

[You are just lucky to have awakened the Holy Priestess class. Otherwise, how could you stay in the Silver Team as a newcomer?]

Despite thinking this in her heart, Yibei still clung to Tina like a clingy octopus, and said in a coquettish tone:
"Sister Tia, we are relying on you to protect us on this adventure."

Yibei spoke in a coquettish tone, clinging to Tia like a clingy octopus.

Only with a legendary professional like Tia by her side, she has the confidence to take on the task of strangling the goblin, and she must hold on to this thigh tightly.

"Don't worry, they're just goblins. Watch how I kill them all!" Mana ran in front of the crowd, holding a long sword and posing in a very handsome manner.

Yibei rolled his eyes upon seeing this.

This stupid brother was so busy playing around that he didn't even bother trying to please sister Tia.

If they took advantage of this adventure to get closer to this popular adventurer, perhaps they could also get into the silver team.

If we weren't short of a forward, I really wouldn't want him to come along.

As the three of them were playing around, they soon arrived at the entrance of the goblin's lair.

Mana took the lead and picked aside the leaves that concealed the cave entrance: "The place father and the others were talking about should be here."

This goblin's lair had just been raided by Mana's father not long ago, and only a few goblins were left, who were left behind intentionally to intimidate the villagers and earn commissions.

Mana was unaware of his father's intention of raising a tiger to cause trouble, so he secretly took on a mission at the Adventurer's Guild.

"It's so dark!" Ibe walked to the front of the cave and looked at the pitch-black nest, feeling a little scared. After all, it was his first adventure, and he couldn't help but feel nervous even when facing weak goblins.

"Goblins just like dark places. Don't be afraid. Haven't we prepared torches in advance?" Tia was familiar with the place and encouraged the two newcomers very gently.

"Mana, you are a swordsman and need to stand at the front of the team."

"Ibe, you are the archer. Stand beside me, cover Mana and protect me. I will use magic to enhance your power during the battle."

"It's just a goblin, very weak, don't be nervous."

Tia stood there holding a magic wand, and her gentle and petite tone seemed to have some kind of magic that immediately calmed Mana and Ibe's nervous mood.

Under her arrangement and deployment, Ibe and Mana formed a formation, then filed into the cave holding torches.

Inside the cave, as soon as Tia and her two companions entered the cave, Gu An received a prompt from the system.

"The one holding the magic wand should be the Saint."

As soon as Tia and the other two entered the cave, they were completely under Gu An's vision and control.

He discovered that the saint was so young, wearing long boots and a short skirt, and her clothes were the same as those worn at comic conventions, full of customs from another world.

[The first batch of adventurers have entered the territory]

[Defeat the Adventurer: Get a low-level reward, wood x 30]

[Kill the Adventurer: Get Intermediate Reward, Wood × 30, Stone × 30]

[Kill the adventurer and capture the saint: get advanced rewards, cave fruit, wood × 30, stone × 30, energy × 150]

While issuing a warning, the system also released three tasks, with corresponding rewards depending on the difficulty.

"Cave Fruit? It sounds like a good thing."

As the name suggests, this should be a kind of fruit that can grow in caves. With it, the food source is guaranteed. Even if you don't leave the territory, you can achieve self-sufficiency and feed yourself and the goblins under you.

This is a good thing. Currently, the goblins under his command are very weak. If they go out to collect food, they will easily be killed by adventurers.

But if we have the cave fruit, we won’t have to send the goblins out to die.

It seems that we have to find a way to capture this saint alive.

"You, set out immediately and stop the Saint and the others."

Gu An pointed at a low-level goblin, who had a confused look on his face, his small eyes trying to open as wide as possible.

I?
The goblin showed a very frightened expression.

"You don't need to fight. You just need to prepare water, put out the torches in their hands, and then lure them to the trap..."

Gu An told the group of goblins the plan he had thought of long ago.

After the tasks were clearly assigned, the goblins immediately took action and went out in full force.

Gu An sat on a stone chair, and through his skill [Lord of the Cave], he monitored the entire battle situation, controlled all information, and commanded and adjusted strategies at all times.

After a while, the three junior goblins were ready. They quietly moved to a corner, each holding a bucket of dirty water in their hands.

At this time, Tia and the other two were talking and laughing all the way, and they were about to turn the corner. Gu An took advantage of his God's perspective and ordered the goblins to launch a surprise attack at the most appropriate distance.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie!"

Three goblins suddenly jumped out with smiles, and they splashed the dirty water in their hands together, which formed arcs and poured on Tina and the others, and at the same time extinguished the torches.

Without the fire source, the cave immediately became dark and only some vague shadows could be seen.

The plan succeeded, and the three goblins stomped their feet to celebrate. They looked like a group of naughty babies, except that they were too ugly.

"Damn it, damn goblin!" After being splashed with dirty water, Mana immediately showed an expression of disgust and shouted loudly.

Tia and Ibe were also covered in dirt, especially Tia who was wearing white clothes. After her clothes were wet by the water, they became almost transparent.

The fishy smell was disgusting. Ibe covered his mouth and finally suppressed the urge to vomit.

"Dirty goblins, I'm going to kill you!" Mana was furious and chased after them with a sword in hand.

Tina was very experienced. She didn't panic like the Mana brothers and sisters. She called out, "Mana, don't be impulsive! Pay attention to the formation!"

The dim and dark environment is very scary. If the team gets separated at this time, it will be in an extremely dangerous situation.

Tina was very clear about this matter, but before she could stop him, Mana had already run out, and the triangle formation of the three people immediately loosened.

In order to avoid getting lost, Tina and Ibe had no choice but to chase after them.

Tina held the wand in her hand, her long eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she looked anxious because of her concern for Mana.

Too reckless.

Even when facing goblins, you can't be so careless!
