Goblin Village 1

The injured goblin cried, the other two were alarmed and readied their weapons.

Noah happened to land perfectly in the middle of the two, his blades danced and the two goblins died before even they knew it.

Everything happened too fast, Noah was quick and accurate, not wasting any movement, only going for the kills.

{Three goblins killed}

{Experience+3%}

Noah ignored the robotic voice, focusing his attention on the scared injured goblin trying to flee.

Noah lowered his body toward one of the goblins, this action confused the injured goblin.

''Kiee?"

Noah ignored it and retrieved his dagger from the head of the dead goblin, meanwhile, the injured goblin immediately escaped into the forest leaving a green blood on its trail.

''Great!"

Noah revealed a smile when he saw this, half of his goal was achieved, the other half would depend on the runaway goblin.

He calmly waited for ten minutes and during those ten minutes, his mouth didn't stay idling as he ate a few cookies. Having already eaten all of his Peanut butter cookies, Noah was now eating Chocolate chip cookies. The taste was godly, a beautiful amalgam of caramelized butter and sugar, it was so good Noah almost moaned, he was addicted to cookies.

''Sigh! Guess I should start following.''

Noah reluctantly put the remaining Chocolate chip cookies away and finally moved. He followed the trail of green blood for almost one kilometer before stopping at the foot of a small mountain, he was certain that beyond this small mountain was a goblin settlement.

And his guess wasn't wrong, after making sure there wasn't an enemy in the vicinity, he climbed up the mountain and arrived at the top, he saw what appeared to be a crudely made wooden fence surrounded few thatched huts, small creatures could be seen walking inside the wooden fence, there was a watchtower in the northern side of this small goblin village.

From this vantage point, Noah was able to observe everything, maybe because he was close to getting a class, and this improved his eyesight.

Players have better physical and eyesight than normal people, and a longer lifespan as well. They're superhuman with awesome abilities just like superheroes, the reason they got the name Players was simply because of Player's status interface and fantasy-like abilities.

Noah shook his head threw that mundane knowledge from his head and focused ahead.

''I wonder how many goblins are in total in that small village?"

This question wasn't directed at anyone just mumbling as he couldn't accurately guess the number of goblins inside the village, while many were outside doing various shores, Noah believed there should be some inside the houses, so he couldn't get an accurate count of their numbers.

[303 goblins have been detected]

But unexpectedly, that thing, the system whatever helped him, left Noah confused for a second before he smiled.

''Wow! I didn't know you could help me. What kind of help can you give me again?"

Noah wasn't expecting much but the system's next words left him speechless, his lips twitched and a frown marred his handsome face.

[No other help will be given, the system suggests the host use your brain and quickly finish the mission.]

''Sigh! I was a fool for asking such a question.'' Noah massaged his temple, what the system did was help him but because he was a little greedy he wished for more.

''Forget, it said 303 goblins? Huh!" Noah sucked in a mouthful of fresh air and his hands trembled. Sweat formed on his forehead, three hundred goblins were no joke, he hadn't fought such a large number before, naturally, he was scared, still, he didn't let the fear control him.

"Fear is part of being human, Noah, it's the precursor to bravery. We need it, it wakes us up to what needs to be done. So feel it, own it, let it ignite your thoughts." His psychologist used to tell him during their sessions.

Although he had never fought such a number before, there is a beginning for everything and one should learn to try new things, and overcome one limit Noah firmly believes this.

Besides, who said he would be fighting those 303 goblins? He would be a fool not to use his brain.

Noah racked his brain to come up with a solution. He stayed silent for ten minutes, ruminating through his memory until he found the solution.

''That is it!"

Noah was overjoyed, he immediately unpacked his backpack put it down, he started searching through it. He found what he was searching for. Bottle of orange juice, there were four of them. He was planning to drink them during his meal. He emptied their content into another bottle before taking out a Plastic bottle holding the remaining aged wine he enjoyed with Arthur last night.

The fifty years old LA ROSE had 15% of alcohol and Noah could use this to make a cocktail Molotov. It is said that beyond 13% Wine can be considered a combustible and flammable substance. It was exactly what he needed at the moment.

Noah divided the aged wine LA Rose into the four bottles equally before taking a handkerchief, he tore it apart before putting them in the bottles filled with wine leaving some hanging.

There was still a little bit of wine left, he would use it to smear the extremity of the handkerchiefs outside of the bottles before lighting them.

Noah the four cocktails Molotov away before checking his weapons, everything was ready but he couldn't attack yet, he had to wait for night to arrive and only then he would start his operation.

In the meantime, he would eat his dinner, relying solely on cookies would not do, he would lack strength therefore he needs a healthy meal.

Noah finally took out his dinner. Noah's takeaway dinner sat there in plain brown bags, yet the air around it was already so aromatic that Noah could just bite it. He could feel his inner joy smiling, that was dinner.

Noah opened it.

Mushroom soup, bitter greens with tomatoes the size of peas, rare roast beef slices as thin as paper, noodles in a green sauce, cheese that melts on your tongue.
