Directly following them to the Goblin Kingdom would not only reveal the Goblin Kingdom's location but also allow them to gather information about its strength.
This information and intelligence would surely fetch a large amount of happy coins and contribution points.
Upon realizing this, the girls immediately felt a surge of excitement.
Crucially, only they might be able to accomplish this; others truly couldn't.
After all, Goblins are only interested in breeding, not special fetishes.
If they could bring this intelligence back, they wouldn't end up at the bottom this time; they'd at least earn some contribution points.
To avoid any mishaps,
along the way, Bai Feifei continuously sent retreat signals on the map, first to mark the Goblin troop's route.
Second, she was afraid that other Adventurers would come and disturb these Goblin troops.
Upon receiving her signal,
the other Adventurers, though unaware of what was happening, knew there must be a reason and didn't approach, not even out of curiosity to take a look.
Only Qi Maosong, skilled in reconnaissance, climbed a tree and observed the situation from a vantage point on the necessary route.
"How is it? Did you find anything?"
When Qi Maosong returned, Wu Yue went up to him and asked.
"It's a Goblin troop, and it's a very strong Goblin troop."
Qi Maosong deliberately emphasized "very strong."
It already indicated that
this was an opponent they couldn't handle at this stage.
Even if all 40 Adventurers gathered, they couldn't defeat a troop led by a Goblin Mage.
To deal with such a troop, they would have to farm some high-level and elite-grade magic crystals to raise the spirit levels of all Adventurers.
"Then what should we do? Aren't Bai Feifei and the others in great danger?" Wu Yue blurted out instinctively.
Then, as if remembering something, he rubbed his head, "It seems they're not that dangerous after all."
Qi Maosong mused, "Since they changed the signal to retreat at the last moment, they must have some idea, perhaps wanting to use this opportunity to investigate the Goblin Kingdom's true strength."
"You have a point." Wu Yue nodded in agreement, "So, should we go back and tell Lord Chen?"
"Not yet, going back specifically would be too much of a time waste."
Qi Maosong shook his head, "Let's continue hunting. Half a day has already passed, and today's gains are still insufficient. Relying on this much improvement to attack the Goblin Kingdom is simply impossible."
Wu Yue touched the two magic crystals in his bag; they had already used four, leveling up to three.
The remaining two were only common grade and no longer had value for improvement.
"The best outcome today would probably be for everyone to reach level four."
Qi Maosong said no more and continued to scout the surroundings.
Although Chen Yu's task was only to explore the unknown territory around the castle,
the Adventurers had their own ideas.
They hoped for more territory to build the Resident Evil Dungeon.
They also hoped to receive more rewards.
They didn't come this time just for the basic allowance; at least Qi Maosong and the others were different—they were aiming for contribution points and higher rewards.
Since it was a full day anyway, they had to maximize its use.
Suddenly,
on the Adventurer interface, all Adventurers received an emergency mission just issued by Chen Yu.
【Emergency Mission: Aid Biohazard Base City District 2, repel and identify the source of the attack.】
"What?"
"Biohazard Base City is under attack? Doesn't that mean the Resident Evil Dungeon is in danger?"
Upon hearing this news,
the many Adventurers were initially stunned.
Then, they immediately became enraged.
Although they knew that each territory was protected by a shield, making it impossible for enemies to break in,
if attacked, the shield's energy would cut off the Dungeon's signal.
This would affect the Dungeon within the territory, preventing its normal use.
While their lives would be guaranteed,
every minute of lost operating time meant one Adventurer couldn't play Biochemical Crisis.
Damn bastards!
Do you guys know what it feels like not to be able to play Biochemical Crisis?
It's like hundreds of ants crawling on you!
All Adventurers who received the message quickly rushed back to the territory, preparing to aid Biohazard Base City District 2, including Li Ruopu.
Only Li Ruoshu did not return.
Of course, the five, including Bai Feifei, who were captured by the Goblins, also didn't return, but Li Ruoshu didn't want to return, while they couldn't.
The 32 Adventurers wasted no time, entering the teleportation gate one by one, consuming 32 soul crystals, and teleporting to Biohazard Base City District 2, which was the Rabbit-Ear People Village.
Li Ruopu and Qi Maosong stayed behind first to explain the situation on both sides to Chen Yu.
"You mean Li Ruoshu encountered a high-quality monster and is already on her way to hunt it, thus unable to return?"
Li Ruopu said, "Yes, my sister said she had a premonition that this monster was unusual and might drop attribute magic crystals, so... she didn't want to give up."
This was also Li Ruoshu's desire to challenge herself.
After all, a powerful enemy, especially such a cunning one, was undoubtedly an excellent whetstone.
As a top Adventurer, at such times, she always yearned to break through herself through battle.
Chen Yu nodded and let Li Ruoshu proceed as she wished.
It should be known that attribute magic crystals were extremely rare and excellent magic crystals; while upgrading quality, they could also grant Adventurers corresponding attribute powers.
If she could really get an elite-quality attribute magic crystal, it would definitely be a good thing for the territory.
After Li Ruopu reported his sister's situation, he entered the teleportation gate and went to the front line.
Qi Maosong also told Chen Yu about the situation he had scouted.
"The Goblin Kingdom?"
Chen Yu's gaze shifted slightly, "I didn't expect them to come knocking so soon. Have you observed their movements?"
"Yes."
Qi Maosong replied, "Actually, there's no need to observe; Bai Feifei sends a signal on the map every once in a while, indicating their current location.
It looks like they're heading northwest. I think the next time they see you, they'll bring back more news."
Chen Yu nodded.
He hadn't expected these Adventurers to bring him two surprises in just one morning.
If Li Ruoshu succeeded in her hunt, his territory's strength would increase.
Then, he would be able to improve his strength more quickly, and attacking the Goblin Kingdom would be easier.
"Oh, right... Li Ruoshu isn't here, so you're the highest combat power in this battle. There's something I need to give you."
As if remembering something, Chen Yu performed an operation on the Adventurer interface.
Then he said to Qi Maosong, "These are the monster illustrations I dropped while you were grinding in the Resident Evil Dungeon these past few days. I've already opened the permissions for you. During this battle, at a critical moment, you can activate the illustration to transform into a Licker at any time."
