7: Chapter 7 Instant Boss Kill

A deep, furious roar echoed through the tribe. The Goblins, who had been fleeing in panic moments before, instantly halted, their morale restored. They all turned and knelt in the direction of the tribe's depths.

Immediately after, a burly figure slowly emerged. It was the Goblin Chieftain, followed by 20 elite bodyguards clad in iron armor, wielding swords and shields. Each of these level 7 elites exuded an aura far surpassing that of ordinary elites.

[BOSS: Goblin Chieftain]

[Level: 7]

[Grade: Bronze]

[HP: 5000/5000]

[Attack: 300]

[Defense: 200]

[Skills: Endurance Domain (Passive, increases Constitution of all subordinates by 30%), Giant Axe Sweep, War Stomp]

[Note: Possesses intelligence not inferior to humans, rules the entire Goblin tribe]

The Goblin Chieftain held a massive iron axe. His muscles were knotted and explosive, and his icy gaze fixed on Su Chen. He roared, "Insignificant human! How dare you slaughter my people! I will tear you to pieces!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the Chieftain waved his hand. The 20 elite bodyguards charged first, followed closely by the remaining Goblins, launching a fierce assault towards Su Chen.

Su Chen's expression remained placid. He didn't even regard the charging Chieftain as a threat. Instead, he continued executing his own plan. With a thought, he activated [Flash Stab], instantly teleporting beside an ordinary Goblin. His cross greatsword swept out, instantly annihilating it.

[Ding! Killed Level 6 Goblin Warrior. Gained 120 EXP!]

[Ding! [Flash Stab] killed target. Cooldown refreshed!]

Even with the boost from the Chieftain's [Endurance Domain], which enhanced the ordinary Goblins' constitution, they still met their fate of being one-shotted under Su Chen's cross greatsword and terrifying stats.

Utilizing the refresh mechanism of [Flash Stab], he reaped lives amidst high mobility, completely ignoring the threat posed by the Goblin Chieftain.

Seeing this, the Goblin Chieftain flew into a rage. Brandishing his iron axe, he charged at Su Chen, preparing to unleash [Giant Axe Sweep] to clear the area. But just as the skill was about to activate, Su Chen instantly teleported to a lowly Goblin 50 yards away, effortlessly evading the attack.

The range of the Chieftain's [Giant Axe Sweep] was only 30 yards, while Su Chen's [Flash Stab] displacement distance was a full 50 yards, placing him completely outside the danger zone.

Watching Su Chen continue to harvest his tribesmen from afar while he himself was powerless to stop it, the Chieftain fell into a fit of impotent rage. He roared, spinning in place, yet couldn't even touch the hem of Su Chen's clothes.

Su Chen thus initiated his kiting tactic. Whenever the Chieftain prepared to unleash an area-of-effect skill, he would teleport 50 yards away and continue slaughtering the ordinary Goblins.

When the Chieftain gave up on using the skill, Su Chen would teleport back and keep reaping, infuriating the Chieftain until his eyes turned crimson, yet he remained helpless.

Time passed bit by bit. The corpses of Goblins piled up like a mountain on the ground. The remaining Goblins, seeing their kin fall in droves, had their morale utterly shattered. Gone was their previous frenzy, replaced by extreme panic. They scattered and fled in all directions, no longer daring to approach Su Chen.

"Trying to run? Too late." Su Chen's eyes turned cold. Hoisting his cross greatsword, he began a reaping mode back and forth across the tribe.

He hacked his way from the tribe's main camp all the way back to the entrance. Wherever he went, whether it was fleeing ordinary Goblins or stubbornly resisting elite bodyguards, all were instantly slain by his sword, leaving no survivors.

[Ding! Killed Level 7 Goblin Elite Bodyguard ×20. Gained 6000 EXP!]

[Ding! Killed Level 6 Goblin ×1200. Gained 144000 EXP!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host has leveled up. Current Level: Lv4!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host has leveled up. Current Level: Lv5!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host has leveled up. Current Level: Lv6!]

Three consecutive beams of white light enveloped his entire body. Su Chen's level soared directly to Lv6, with all his attributes receiving a tiered increase.

Agility broke through 800 points, while Strength and Constitution also reached over 400 points. His combat power surged once again.

Su Chen stopped, looking at the ground covered with corpses that no longer made a sound. He nodded in satisfaction and murmured to himself, "No living witnesses, no noise. This is the perfect stealth."

In his logic, as long as he killed all eyewitnesses, it counted as completing a silent assassination. This way, he could reap a massive amount of experience while also aiming for the highest dungeon rating.

And now, only one last eyewitness remained—the Goblin Chieftain.

At this moment, the Goblin Chieftain had been completely reduced to a leader with no followers. Watching his people slaughtered to the last and his bodyguards all fallen, he erupted with ultimate fury. His eyes burned crimson as he spat in human tongue, "Human! You will join them in death!"

Before the words fully faded, the Chieftain stomped the ground, activating the skill [Barbaric Charge]. Like a raging bull, with a howling wind, he shot straight for Su Chen at a terrifying speed.

Su Chen's eyes narrowed. For the first time, he utilized his core skill, [Divine Stealth].

[Ding! Skill [Divine Stealth] activated!]

His figure instantly faded, completely entering a state of invisibility, impervious to any detection.

He casually sidestepped. The Chieftain's [Barbaric Charge] missed completely, crashing into a large tree behind him and snapping its trunk.

The Chieftain was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted. He immediately turned and activated the skill [War Stomp], slamming both feet hard into the ground. A massive shockwave rippled out, attempting to seal Su Chen's movement space.

But Su Chen had already anticipated his move. The instant the Chieftain activated the skill, Su Chen had teleported behind him, still under the effect of [Divine Stealth], perfectly avoiding the shockwave.

"Can't find me, are you getting anxious?" Su Chen's icy voice came from behind. The Chieftain immediately fell into disarray, swinging his iron axe wildly in all directions, yet utterly unable to lock onto Su Chen's position.

Leveraging the increased damage upon breaking stealth from [Divine Stealth], Su Chen leaped high, evading the Chieftain's final frantic attacks. He raised his cross greatsword high. A flash of silvery-white sword light descended as he brought it down with tremendous force from above.

*Schlick—*

A tearing sound rang out. The greatsword left a deep, bone-revealing wound on the Chieftain's body. Blood gushed forth, and the Chieftain's HP instantly dropped to zero.

[Ding! Killed Level 7 Bronze BOSS Goblin Chieftain. Gained 10000 EXP!]

[Ding! [Sleight of Hand] triggered. Obtained items: Chieftain's Great Axe (Bronze Grade), 1000 Gold Coins.]

The Goblin Chieftain's massive body crashed to the ground. His eyes were wide open, filled with the indignity of death.

Until his dying breath, he could not comprehend how a newly awakened human novice could possess such terrifying burst damage, capable of instantly killing him.
