47: Team up? When you guys are eliminated, all the experience will be mine.

Sea of Trees Dungeon.

"Snap!"

[Ding! You killed Green-Armored Mantis (LV4), XP + 40]

[Ding! Points + 1, Current Points 10]

After tearing a mantis larger than a human in half, Jiang Yuan's points reached 10.

He bent down and picked up a sickle-like green steel blade covered in jagged teeth and radiating a cold glint from the pile of Materials dropped by the giant Green-Armored Mantises.

"This feels pretty easy to use."

Jiang Yuan casually waved the sickle twice, and as the sharp blade light flashed past, a nearby incredibly tough and thick vine instantly split into two.

Nodding in satisfaction, Jiang Yuan looked up at his surroundings.

"I didn't expect this dungeon to be quite so big. I've been walking toward the depths for so long, and I'm still in the outer perimeter."

"The monsters are also way too weak."

"Wait, could it be that I went in the wrong direction?"

Jiang Yuan thought to himself and scratched his head.

He didn't have the attribute of being directionless, but this area full of giant trees made it really hard to distinguish directions. He could easily take a wrong turn, and there was no map of the dungeon either.

A difficult expression appeared on Jiang Yuan's face. "If I went the wrong way, it's going to be troublesome."

"If I had known, I should have learned a reconnaissance skill."

He sighed.

He could no longer open the Star Domain network to trade either, so he could only use a clumsy method.

His legs bent, gathered strength, and he kicked off hard.

"Bang!"

The hard ground sank and exploded, and Jiang Yuan's figure instantly vanished from the spot, soaring into the sky with faint sonic booms until his speed slowed down upon reaching a height of a hundred meters.

After slicing his green steel blade into a thick tree trunk, Jiang Yuan looked out into the distance.

"It's all the same scenery, which way should I go after all... Huh?"

He looked in a certain direction.

The flashing light of an explosion faintly came from over there.

...

"Boom!"

"Bang!"

Jiang Yuan approached that area.

He saw more than ten Goblin warriors holding wooden clubs, shields, and axes approaching three students.

Two males and one female, a standard combination of a warrior, a heavy shield bearer, and a mage.

The female mage looked like she didn't have much combat experience. Panicked, she continuously cast fireball skills, but they were all blocked by the large Goblin standing in front of the Goblins.

"Don't come over, don't come over!"

Once her mana bar was depleted, what awaited them was a gang attack and slaughter.

"Zhang Xuan, calm down," the male warrior shouted. "This is completely useless!"

"Dammit, we only killed one Goblin, how did so many suddenly pop out?!" The thick-browed heavy shield guy was covered in cold sweat. "What should we do now? I don't want it to end so early."

While the two of them were still discussing what to do, something worse happened.

The girl stopped casting skills and collapsed powerlessly onto the ground.

"I, I have no strength left..."

A group of Goblins walked out from behind the large Goblin, looking at them with evil smiles on their faces.

"%￥&@34%#!... (You're done for, foolish humans)"

"◎★▲△■※￡¤￠℃... (Accept your death!)"

"%￥#@... (Charge together, grab that woman)"

"Dammit!"

The male warrior gritted his teeth, dashed forward with a lunge, and blocked the Goblin's wooden club aimed at the girl.

"Hiss... Such heavy force, help quickly!"

The heavy shield guy hurriedly stepped forward to taunt and attract attacks, but he was slapped aside by the large Goblin, sending the shield in his hand flying out.

The warrior parried the attack of the Goblin in front of him, released his skill, and was enveloped in a bloody glow.

"Blood Rage! Plus, Earth-Shattering Slash!"

He gripped his greatsword with both hands and slashed down fiercely. The blade sliced open the Goblin's tough body, cutting a deep gash and reducing its health bar by more than half.

"#@... (Ah!! It hurts to death!! Damned human demons!!)" The injured Goblin let out a piercing, painful scream.

Just as the male warrior was about to deal it the final blow,

the Goblin was seemingly attacked by some invisible thing, its screams abruptly stopping, its eyes popping with a snap, and its health bar instantly clearing to zero.

The male warrior froze for a moment, then widened his eyes.

No way! Was his kill stolen?!

You gotta be kidding me.

He still wanted to rely on the XP from killing this monster to level up!!

Suppressing the anger and impatience in his heart, he turned his head to look around and quickly spotted Jiang Yuan sitting on a rock a hundred meters away.

"Classmate, you're also an examinee, right? How about we team up?"

The male warrior suppressed the anger of having his kill stolen, forced a smile, and asked Jiang Yuan.

As for what he was thinking in his heart, it was to drag this person over to attract the Goblins' aggro so that they could have time to escape.

"You saw it too, this place is really dangerous. A single person will definitely get eliminated very quickly. Why don't we all team up, the XP—" Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by an attack from a Goblin.

The female mage and the heavy shield guy also saw Jiang Yuan. As if seeing hope, they eagerly begged,

"Yeah, yeah, classmate, let's team up."

"I can block attacks and absorb damage for you. The four of us teaming up will definitely be able to wipe out this group of Goblins... Ah!"

"If you are willing to help, I... No, I can even be your girlfriend, look..." The female mage pulled open her mage robe, revealing a trembling flash of white to Jiang Yuan.

This scene made the male warrior beside her furious beyond control.

What a bitch!

He had simped for her for so long, spending money and effort, and she only agreed to be his girlfriend. Up until now, they hadn't even held hands, yet she casually showed her breasts to a stranger just like that...

Jiang Yuan expressionlessly let out a yawn, feeling completely unmoved inside by what they said, and had no intention of lending a helping hand whatsoever.

Everyone was a competitor, why on earth should he help?

It was already pretty good that he hadn't eliminated them.

If anything, it would be even better if they got eliminated.

That way, all these monsters would belong to him.

Sensing his intent, the male warrior flew into a rage out of humiliation. "Are you really going to stand by and watch us die?! You even stole my kill, this is simply—"

Before he could finish speaking, the large Goblin's wooden club smashed down, and he had no choice but to crush the teleportation stone in his hand.

"I can't hold on either..."

The female mage closed her eyes in despair. Before the few Goblins could swing down their axes and wooden clubs, she crushed the teleportation stone in her hand and turned into a beam of white light, disappearing from the spot.

"Dammit!"

All his companions had left. No matter how unwilling the heavy shield guy was, he could only crush the teleportation stone at this moment.

Following the departure of the three people,

Jiang Yuan finally stood up from the rock, looking at the group of XP—no—Goblins not far away with a smile.

"They're finally gone. Now I don't have to worry about them splitting the XP."

A group of Goblins cried out angrily in chaos, destroying everything around them.

"%!$#... (Damned human, where did you run off to?)"

"@#!$#...&... (Get out here!)"

"Swish!"

A green blade light unceremoniously sliced across a Goblin's body without any obstruction.

In the blink of an eye, its health bar cleared to zero!

Before it could even react, its body was cut in half.

"!$#... (Who goes there!!)"

The other Goblins instantly became chaotic, letting out piercing screams.

"Whoosh!"

A gust of fierce wind howled past.

Jiang Yuan appeared among the Goblins, swinging his green sickle in a full circle. Accompanied by a sharp whistling sound resembling shattering glass, the green blade light swept around in an arc, instantly cutting several Goblins in half!

Even without using skills, given his terrifying stats, any random attack could instantly kill minor monsters of this level.

[Ding! You killed Goblin (LV5), XP + 50]

[Ding! You killed...]

System prompt sounds continuously rang out.

"#!$#&... (It's the human demon!)!"

"△■※￡¤￠℃... (Despicable fellow, come out!!)"

The remaining Goblins screamed and waved their wooden clubs, whistling with the wind as they smashed toward Jiang Yuan.

"Thud thud thud!!"

The attacks fell like raindrops.

-1, -1, -1, -1.

Jiang Yuan didn't even need to dodge.

Casually waving the green sickle in his hand, he chopped up the remaining Goblins cleanly. Even the LV8 large Goblin with over ten thousand health points didn't survive a single slash from him before its health bar cleared to zero.

Instant kill, they were all one-hit kills!

"More trash Materials."

"The XP is also way too low."

Looking at the XP bar that had only reached 50% from LV9 to LV10, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

"The XP given by Tier 2 Vicious Beasts is still higher."

"Sigh..."

He randomly chose a direction and continued walking toward the depths of the dungeon.
