Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At this moment, everyone clearly saw the appearance of the green figure.
With a pair of sharp ears and an elongated nose, coupled with a greenish skin and a short and wretched figure. This was not a human but actually a Goblin.
This Goblin was unique as he carried a ma.s.sive sack on his shoulder.
Everyone had a bad taste in their mouth. This Gnome was carrying such a big sack yet he still could run so quickly. If he did not carry that, his speed would be enough to ascend the heavens.
Treasure Hunter Goblin (LV65) (Sentient BOSS)
HP: 100000
MP: 100000
Skills: G.o.dspeed, Scavenging, Frauding, Using External Equipment to attack
Talent: Greed
Background: These greedy scavengers travel the world in search of treasures. In their eyes, everything in the world is a treasure.
Seeing the attributes of Treasure Hunter Goblin, everyone finally understood why it was so difficult to catch him. He was different from the other BOSSes because he was sentient.
This type of sentient BOSS represented the cutting edge frontier of AI. They were more intelligent than the existing Epic Rank BOSS and were even smarter than NPCs like Old Man Hermit.
These highly intelligent monsters were always going to be a pain to deal with. On one hand, they possessed IQ that rivalled that of human players. Furthermore, they were endowed with many skills.
Taking Treasure Hunter Goblin as an example, he posed such a headache for the whole bunch of them because no one was able to match his speed. If Goblin managed to escape outside of the confines of the Temple of Treasure, no one would be able to catch him anymore.
“Hehe, you stupid thieves. You guys dared to disturb this Big Uncle. Do you have a death wish?” Treasure Hunter Goblin truly had a high intellect. Before others could accuse him of anything, he had taken the initiative to find fault with others.
Is anything more embarra.s.sing than being accused by a burglar for being a thief? w.a.n.g Yu and Fearless both walked the path of slaughter. Even if they were accused of burglary, their methods were vastly different compared to Treasure Hunter Goblin.
Without waiting for anyone to reply, Ming Du growled, “Stop talking nonsense. Leave all the things that you took from the treasure chest or you won’t get out alive!”
Ming Du’s words were filled with his boundless anger and indignation.
Everyone empathised with Ming Du’s anger.
Thinking about it too, Ming Du’s previous profession was his soft spot. He initially thought he had found someone who shared similar interests with him in the game. However, it turned out to be just a ploy by this manipulative BOSS. One could only imagine the immense disappointment Ming Du was feeling.
From their understanding of Ming Du’s temperament, even if Treasure Hunter Goblin were to hand up the treasures, Ming Du would let him off lightly.
Treasure Hunter Goblin let out a smile on his face, “Hey hey hey! Were you the one that was singing just now? It sounded way too horrible, like ghosts wailing in the night. Stop dreaming if you think you can catch me! Seeing that you guys have helped this Big Uncle clear so many obstacles, I shall give you some face. Quick, give way now.”
“F*ck you, if you don’t take it out, we are going to do it ourselves!” Ming Du was first being judged and then ridiculed. His anger had already simmered to the absolute peak. Not evening waiting for Treasure Hunter Goblin to finish speaking, he raised his hands and sent fiery flames and streaks of lightning bolts in his direction.
Yang Nuo and Ling Longmeng also shot arrows in his direction.
“Gagaga!”
Treasure Hunter Goblin screamed at the top of his lungs and ran. Before the projectiles could even reach him, Treasure Hunter Goblin figure already disappeared in a blur and he reappeared on the other side of the temple. He shouted, “Come and get me, you idiot.”
“F*ck… The gall of him!” Who was the one that designed this BOSS to have such high-level skills? Ming Du was thoroughly infuriated.
“Don’t be too happy, look at this!”
Just as Treasure Hunter Goblin put down his guard, Frost Blade and Darknorth Fisher appeared from his back. The duo sealed Treasure Hunter Goblin’s escape route and raised their daggers.
“Gagaga!” Treasure Hunter Goblin once again screamed and he quickly fleeted through their two-man blockade with ease. He leapt behind Frost Blade and kicked his back.
Frost Blade was still in the motion of thrusting his dagger when he had to face the incoming kick. The dagger in his hand accidentally flew out from his hands.
“Hehe!”
As Treasure Hunter Goblin saw Frost Blade’s dagger fall on the floor, he flashed a devious grin as he made his way to pocket the dagger.
“What a treasure…” Treasure Hunter Goblin eyes brimmed with greed as he saw the dagger. He quickly threw the dagger in the sack that he was carrying.
“My dagger!” Seeing that his prized possession was being taken away, Frost Blade was almost close to tears. He surged towards Treasure Hunter Goblin.
However, how could Frost Blade’s speed hope to match his opponent? Frost Blade and Ming Du could spend the whole day chasing him and not even see Goblin’s figure at all.
w.a.n.g Yu executed his Qing Gong and rushed towards Goblin.
Treasure Hunter Goblin saw the onrus.h.i.+ng w.a.n.g Yu and quickly sidestepped and ran in an opposing direction. Before w.a.n.g Yu’s feet even touched the ground, he was already antic.i.p.ating the direction that Goblin was escaping in. He reached out with both hands and propelled his body towards him with [Rus.h.i.+ng Knee].
Seeing that w.a.n.g Yu was once again going to catch up with him, Goblin looked down and once again turned in a green light as he evaded all of w.a.n.g Yu’s advances. He managed to escape to a safe distance away from w.a.n.g Yu.
“…” w.a.n.g Yu eyes searched for Goblin in the distance, his face etched with embarra.s.sment.
“F*ck!!!”
When w.a.n.g Yu’s attack failed to find its mark, everyone realised the dire situation they were in.
No one had ever managed to dodge w.a.n.g Yu’s attacks before. This Treasure Hunter Goblin was way too overpowered such that even w.a.n.g Yu had no way to deal with him. Speed was a trait that simply could not be underestimated!
Treasure Hunter Goblin ran to the side of w.a.n.g Yu and squinted at him for a few seconds. He once again sneered, “Gugugu, you have some ability after all. But this is not enough if you want to catch this Uncle. I shall give you one more chance. If you don’t let me leave, you will know the consequences.”
Looking at this wretched and arrogant Goblin, the players clenched their teeth in anger. They could not wait to give him a good beating once he was caught. This was especially so for Captain Don’t Open Fire. He was desperate to obtain an item that was in Goblin’s possession.
Fearless grinned and asked the ashen-faced guild leader, “Hey, Captain Don’t Open Fire, do you want to catch him?”
