Chapter 4: What the Hell is This Goblin!?

Blue Star, District 2.

Zow City, Outer City District, Dragon Sparrow Street.

This area is mostly made up of standalone courtyards, not because it is wealthy.

On the contrary, in the new era of the Hyperdimensional Game, spatial rifts can appear at any time, and danger is always present.

As a result, land values ​​are extremely polarized—

In this world, only big cities and satellite towns with special functions distributed around big cities exist.

One inch of land in the inner city is worth an inch of gold, while the outer city is unattended.

Like now, the inner city is calm, and the monsters that escaped from the spatial rifts were easily strangled by the specialists of the Blue Star Guard Department.

Meanwhile, in the outer city, there are still many monsters roaming about.

"Both my father and mother work in the inner city, and I am the only one at home now."

Buzz...

Logan stood on the rooftop of his house, about to greet his parents through the Hyperdimensional mark, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his brow and received a warning from spiritual energy. He frowned immediately,

"There are monsters nearby... that can threaten me!"

Logan's current rank is "Totem," capable of exerting unparalleled power in the World Fragment.

But in reality, it's only of the First Tier level.

After receiving the warning, he became vigilant, consumed a small number of Faith Points, hid his breath, and his eyes emitted golden light. He started observing and soon found his target—

Several humanoid creatures, with dark red skin and a somewhat mantis-like shape, were lead by one emanating a Third Tier spiritual energy reaction. Their aura was full of sharpness like a sword.

They also held dark red bone spikes in their hands. It seemed that blood was still oozing from them, as if they had just committed a slaughter.

"Third tier..."

"A humanoid creature with wisdom capable of understanding the realm; I wonder what kind of loot I'd get if I killed you guys."

[Faith Points: 138]

Logan glanced at his Faith Points. He had 793 points at the beginning, blessed 35 Goblin Warriors consuming 350 points, crafted the Anchor of the Void consuming 400 points, and had 43 points left. During this period, the Goblin Tribe should have generated some additional Faith Points.

"Summoning a Goblin Elite requires 20 Faith Points. There is a Third Tier and four Second Tier enemies. Summoning six should be enough."

With a thought, Logan's Faith Points on the panel were quickly consumed, leaving only 18 points left.

The next moment, a spatial rift quietly emerged in front of him, and six Goblin Elites quickly walked out, looking respectful,

"Great Father Deity, please guide your humble followers to the direction of the enemy."

"Go, kill them."

...

"Executor Baxter is truly worthy of being the first executor of the Lightning Sword Sect. Your Lightning Five Continuous Swords have reached the pinnacle. I'm afraid you'll be able to charge into the Sword Saint Realm and become the new Chief soon!"

"Yes, these creatures from other worlds are so weak, but their households are filled with precious medicines. It really makes people envious."

"Executor Baxter, this is our great opportunity!"

A group of Mantis People was greedily searching the seemingly wealthy houses with their eyes, ready to rush in and plunder at any moment.

Among them, a young Mantis Person was flattering the middle-aged Mantis Person in the lead.

"Hehe, what's so surprising? With my Lightning Five Continuous Swords, I have become a Sword Master. Today, I will use the blood of these ignorant creatures from other worlds to build my invincible Sword Saint position"

Mantis Sword Master Baxter sneered, exuding Sword Intent, causing the other four Innate Mantis People to shudder in their hearts, secretly sighing that Executor Baxter's natural talent was indeed extraordinary. His insights had grown even more profound with just a few steps into another world.

Suddenly Baxter's dark red bone spike in his hand hummed, which made him happy. He felt the aura of the treasure that was compatible with his Sword Intent again, but also sensed the aura of the creatures from other worlds.

With a sideways glance, without revealing any traces, he looked at the four Innate Swordsmen behind him. Baxter revealed contempt in his heart,

'A bunch of fools, cheated by me to act as my cover, yet they still think they can profit from it.'

However, his mouth said gently,

"Everyone, be careful. There are treasures nearby as well as enemies. Follow me to exterminate them."

The next moment, he took the first step, and his terrifying jumping ability allowed him to leap hundreds of meters in an instant. In just a few jumps, he arrived at a Welfare Institute's courtyard.

Even the most prosperous world will have a dark side. Over the past few decades, despite the arrival of the Hyperdimensional Game, humanity's power and resources have expanded beyond description, but spatial rifts continue to descend.

Blue Star is a civilization that grows through constant destruction and creation.

This means that countless broken families result in many children needing social care from the Welfare Institute before their lifespans reach the standard.

Just stepping into the Welfare Institute, Executor Baxter hesitated for a moment and suddenly showed a hideous smile. Before him were several young otherworldly creatures, a few otherworldly women, and several gray-skinned, long-eared female archers who exuded a dark aura that disgusted him.

What attracted him was a red ring one of the otherworldly women was wearing. Executor Baxter took just one glance and was shaking with anger. He couldn't help but let out a strange squeaking sound,

"Damn it!"

"This aura, I can't be wrong, this is definitely the Thousand-year Blood Essence! The more intact the blood essence, the higher its value. You damned otherworldly woman, you actually made the Thousand-year Blood Essence into a ring!?"

"This intoxicating scent is making the Primordial Thirteen Spears restless, could this be...Dragon Blood!?"

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Executor Baxter's bone sword in hand suddenly burst into blood-colored light, its sword intent rampant as he prepared to kill all the otherworldly creatures possessing these divine treasures!

...

"It's over, I just came out to volunteer, why did I bump into a Level IV Spatial Rift and happen to encounter a Third Order Master monster!"

"Even though I randomly got a high-level Monarch Race Shadow Elf as a believer, that was only a few days ago, and they are still newborns and just at the first-tier!"

"They have huge potential, but their strength is almost zero!"

"It's over, it's over, it's over!"

The young girl looked at the strange-sounding Mantis Person monster. Although she couldn't understand what it was yelling, it was clear that the murderous gaze was directed at her, turning her scared face pale.

But she didn't give up and continued to struggle,

"Elf Blessing!"

Melinda Tang waved her hand, consuming all of her Faith Points at once.

The next moment, golden light shone.

Instantly, the five first-tier Shadow Elf Warriors in front of her were buffed with "Cat's Agility," "Dragon's Strength," "Eagle's Sharpness," "Snake's Hidden," "Bear's Fierce," and other abilities, hoping it would help them escape the disaster.

Unfortunately, it was of little use, and the Shadow Elves were easily slaughtered by the Mantis People.

"What a pity, if it weren't for the fact that our sect leader once said that this otherworldly gate won't last long, I'd like to capture you and interrogate you about the whereabouts of other Thousand-year Blood Essences,"

Executor Baxter sneered coldly, not hesitating at all to unsheathe his sword and kill Melinda Tang, then seize the incredibly valuable ring made from the Thousand-year Blood Essence.

Melinda Tang closed her eyes and waited for death.

At this moment, her mood was surprisingly calm as she recalled things she had dared to think about but never dared to do. A handsome figure appeared in her mind, someone she had seen once in the Hyperdimensional Simulation,

"What a pity, I haven't even been able to take care of Logan yet."

"Hmph, as a little Prisoner breed, you were once the top scholar I couldn't afford to pursue. Now I'm a Monarch Species, and with time, I should be able to support you when I grow up."

"Only pity..."

"I don't have a future."

As she clearly sensed the approaching cold blade, suddenly, the sound of heavy footsteps rushed in.

Why "rushing"?

The sword in front of her throat disappeared quickly, and Melinda Tang opened her eyes in astonishment. Before her were six "green walls" and a Mantis Person Swordsman blocking the charge with his sword.

Melinda Tang was a bit baffled, watching the scene in front of her. Her mind couldn't catch up,

"Green-skinned..."

"This appearance..."

"This can't be a Goblin, can it!?"

"Goblins are this huge!?"

Just as shocked was Executor Baxter.

Feeling the aura emanating from the six large creatures before him, and the fact that his arm was numb from the impact even though he had quickly countered, with his blood churning and even a slight crack appearing on his precious bone sword, he wanted to vomit blood.

"Is this innate!?"

"So what if it is, don't underestimate me! I'm not an ordinary Swordsman!"
