Witnessing two powerful Ogres easily die at Nolan's hands, and seeing the human in front of him gradually approaching him.
Especially.
Each swing of the twin swords in the opponent's hand generated a terrifying gust of wind, making his cheeks subtly ache.
Run—
The cowardly nature of Goblins had long been integrated into the race's genes; facing the threat of death.
The first thought that arose in this Goblin's mind was to escape.
However!
If this Goblin had just stayed motionless on the ground, Nolan's large-scale destruction of the surroundings might not have discovered him, as long as he didn't happen to hit him directly.
But now, as this Goblin fled, the 'Camouflage' magic he was using began to change, like a layer that actively changed color suddenly appearing in this space.
Extremely conspicuous!
"I see you now,"
Nolan paused his sword-swinging motion, turned to look at the self-changing, moving object, and a brilliant smile appeared on his face.
Huh?
Nolan suddenly realized that the opponent's movement speed was very fast.
Despite being in a complex environment like the jungle, the opponent ran as if on flat ground, with the surrounding plants unable to hinder him at all.
What kind of ability is this?
Nolan was a little surprised, but there was no hesitation in his actions; he gripped the hilt of his sword in a backhand manner, then threw the iron sword like a javelin.
Whoosh!
The astonishing force made the iron sword burst out with a sharp whooshing sound.
It instantly pierced the color-changing creature!
"Ah!!"
A scream echoed through the forest, and then the creature fell to the ground, wailing continuously.
Nolan then slowly walked over.
Due to the attack, the 'Camouflage' magic effect had dissipated.
The Goblin's appearance was also completely exposed in Nolan's sight, making him involuntarily freeze.
Unlike ordinary Goblins, which are entirely dark green.
This Goblin's skin color was significantly lighter, with two sharp teeth protruding from its lower jaw, and the most striking difference was its size!
Normal Goblins, even adults, are about the size of human children, but this Goblin in front of him was already roughly the size of a Dwarf.
"I'm going to die!"
"It hurts so much, I'm going to die!"
The Goblin lay on the ground with the iron sword stuck in his back, the immense pain causing him to constantly let out agonizing screams.
If Nolan couldn't be sure just by its appearance, then hearing the other party speak at this moment, Nolan knew his previous guess was wrong.
"I thought it was a mutated Goblin individual," Nolan said with a cold expression, looking at the Great Goblin wailing on the ground:
"Turns out it's just a Goblin sub-species, a Great Goblin."
Great Goblins.
They are a sub-species among Goblins, superior to Goblins in both physical and intellectual aspects, very close to human levels.
However!
Compared to the Goblins' terrifying reproductive ability, Great Goblins' reproductive ability is not strong, and because Great Goblins can also mate with ordinary Goblins.
Therefore, they often live together with Goblin communities, and due to their superior physique and intelligence, Great Goblins also hold a higher status.
Nolan stepped forward, stomped on the head of the wailing Great Goblin, silencing him, then reached out and pulled the iron sword from his back.
Puff!
Green blood splattered!
"Ah!!"
The Great Goblin closed his mouth out of fear, then screamed again in agony from the pain, his body twitching uncontrollably, and he pleaded weakly,
"Human, don't kill me..."
"If I die, the Ogre Lords will not let you go—Ah!!"
Bang!
Hearing the words "Ogre Lords," Nolan's eyes narrowed, and he stomped down again, pressing the opponent's head into the mud of decaying branches and leaves.
"So noisy."
Nolan spoke impatiently, a look of realization appearing on his face.
So that's it.
If he remembered correctly, a group of Great Goblins did live in the Ogre territory; they seemed to be a tribe of Great Goblins called the "Gick Tribe."
This Great Goblin tribe had even appeared in the anime.
Just like the relationship between ordinary Goblins and Ogres!
The relationship between Great Goblins and Ogres was similar; because Great Goblins possessed intelligence, they were brought under the rule of the Ogres.
Of course, for the Ogres, the Great Goblin tribe also served as a backup food source!
After the Bone King killed the "Eastern Giant" Ogre, Gu, this "Gick Tribe" was liberated and joined Carne Village.
They were also consequently brought under the rule of the "Great Tomb of Nazarick," making them one of the few relatively lucky races in the other world.
However, they should have been living in the inner regions of the jungle ruled by the "Eastern Giant" Ogre, Gu, so how did they end up on the outskirts?
Nolan was a bit confused.
But he also understood how this guy, who had been causing him trouble for some time, managed to do it.
Great Goblins could be considered nobles among ordinary Goblins, and mobilizing ordinary Goblins was no problem for them.
As for Ogres?
Due to the racial characteristics of Ogres, they were more willing to protect and obey Great Goblins than ordinary Goblins.
Huh?
Nolan moved his foot, looking at the Great Goblin he had just stomped on, whose body was visibly twitching violently, as if he could die at any moment, and his eyes twitched.
Truly fragile.
But far stronger than ordinary Goblins.
Although he had held back some strength in the sword he threw earlier, an ordinary Goblin would have probably been pierced through and killed by that single strike.
This Great Goblin in front of him was only severely wounded, but being able to last until now meant his physique was far superior to that of an ordinary Goblin.
A glint flashed in Nolan's eyes; he raised his hand and aimed at the wound on the Great Goblin's back: "Light Wound Healing."
A short while ago, he had indeed intended to kill this Great Goblin, but just now he suddenly thought of another use for him.
A soft white light appeared, descending upon the Great Goblin's bloody wound!
The wound, which had been continuously bleeding, immediately stopped, and then began to heal rapidly.
A low-level healing magic was clearly not enough to completely heal such severe injuries, but ensuring this Great Goblin wouldn't die was no problem.
The Great Goblin, who had been constantly twitching as if on the verge of death, stopped shaking, and his pupils showed a bewildered expression of surviving a catastrophe.
His green head, covered in dirt and decaying leaves, pulled out of the soil; he looked up and saw the human standing in front of him, staring at him coldly.
"Human—"
"If you let me go, the Ogre Lords will definitely not bother you."
The Great Goblin's body trembled; he quickly scrambled up from the ground, shrinking his body as he spoke and retreated, while also puffing out his neck, putting on a facade of composure.
