"Killing the Lord of the Dark Forest, Cursed Cat Demon. Obtained 20,000 experience. Current LV16, 30,000/80000."

The White Mask of the Cursed Cat Demon slowly turned into powder. It lay on the ground like this, causing people to not be able to tell whether it was unconscious or dead.

The Divine Chasing Sword chopped the claws off the cat demon's body. It was different from normal cat demoness. Although the claws were white, a black aura seeped out from inside like a curse.

Boom!" Lightning flashed from the depths of the forest, for some reason, and it struck the ground from the sky as if it were punishing the world. The white light instantly imprinted the faces of the several people in the forest, and the clouds that had drifted about all year round gathered together, dispersing bit by bit.

"Drip drip …" Liang Yue raised his head to look at the sky. Raindrops fell into the surrounding swamps. "Shua …" With a sound, the rain became heavier and water poured down from the sky, enveloping the entire dark forest. It was as if the water was venting out.

"Pah! Pah!" Stepping onto the wet ground, the four of them put on their cloaks and advanced through the forest. After killing the Cursed Cat Demon, they were not in a hurry to return. Liang Yue looked at the main line of the Mission Bar.

Stepping through the rain, they continued to advance into the forest.

"Main Thread: Missing Workers (2)"

"Notification: After killing the Cursed Cat Demon, you feel that something is amiss. Continue to head into the forest. You will discover the leader of this incident."

"Target: Go to the other area in the Forest of the Glens and find the person who is in charge of this event."

"Quest reward: 1000 experience points."

…

The four of them continued to advance through the forest, and the surrounding environment started to change. Above their heads was still the dark cloud, and Xiao Yu was still falling down, and not only was the surroundings brighter, perhaps because of Xiao Yu, the entire forest was filled with a white mist, and lightning bolts would occasionally flash in the sky, as if something had struck down.

Cory and Xiyue tightened the cloaks on their bodies. They seemed to be afraid as they vigilantly looked at their surroundings. This was no longer a dark forest, this was a deeper place.

Liang Yue smiled and patted Cory's shoulder, consoling him, "Stop looking, this isn't the Dark Forest anymore. Even if you want to leave now, it's already too late, this should be the real reason for the change in the Forest of Limits. I don't think it's worth going back now either."

Just like what they had seen, this was not the Dark Forest anymore. The monsters they had encountered in the Dark Forest were much fewer, and even after killing the Cursed Cat Demon, Liang Yue had never thought that the cat demon would be the leader in killing humans. This was because in the cat demon's food, humans were not the most delicious food.

It continued to drizzle on the ground. Occasionally, there would be a patch of scorched earth on the ground and some of the trees would be split apart by the lightning. They would fall to the ground and slowly wither until they eventually decayed.

This should be the Thunder Ruins.

"Mission accomplished, 1000 experience points."

"Main quest updated!"

"Missing Workers (3)"

"The workers were attacked in the depths of the dark forest by the Demon Cat and another creature. The workers were nowhere to be seen. They might still be somewhere in the forest, or they might have been buried in the mouths of the monsters."

"Mission target, find the surviving workers and investigate the creatures that attacked them."

"Seeker: 0/?"

The white fog shrouded the forest in confusion, and the long howls of wolves came from afar.

The four of them slowly advanced through the forest. Cory lowered his head and looked at the compass in his hand. After confirming that they were heading in the right direction, he continued to explore the Thunder Ruins.

The laughter of monsters came from not too far away. The four people all looked in front of them. It was the Goblin's voice.

"Get ready." Liang Yue's tone was very tranquil, like a calm surface of water.

The fire in the white mist jumped up and down. The sound of swords being unsheathed rang out, and the Goblin, who was surrounded by them, entered his vision.

He held his breath, locked his eyes onto the blue mutated beast, stomped on the ground and charged forward.

Amidst the flying mud and water, the blue sword flew out from the white mist. It passed through the gaps in the forest and arrived in front of it in the blink of an eye, flashing past its neck.

"Woosh ~ ~ ~!"

Blood gushed from the severed neck like a faucet without a valve, and with a muffled thud, the green goblin fell to the ground.

"Ah …!"

The goblins let out unpleasant cries. Looking at their fallen comrades, they immediately stretched their hands out to grab the weapons beside them. A crisp whistle sounded, and Liang Yue held her sword as she looked at them in ridicule.

The leader of the soldiers looked at the sharp blade stabbing into his chest, his eyes revealing a look of fear. Soon after, his vision went black.

A pale green goblin watched as its companions were killed one by one, fear leaking out of its eyes. Its white beard made it look somewhat comical. It stretched out its trembling hands under its beard.

"Beep!"

The sound of the whistle pierced through the gaps between the trees and echoed throughout the ruins.

"Boom —!" There was a clap of thunder, and the lightning struck somewhere in the forest.

A pitch-black figure was lying on the ground as he used all his strength to stare at the white figure on the throne in front of him. It was as though he was regretting something and had died.

"Hiss —!" White mist poured out of its mouth, mixed with lightning and the white mist of the forest. It walked down from its throne and pulled out a scimitar from the pile of human and beast bones.

The yellow magic circle around the prison workers cage, as if it was connected to the cloud under the dome.

"Boom —!" The sound of the thunder turned the ground around the cage into scorched earth. The workers of the cage were squatting in the corners, numbly watching the scene. All the focus in their eyes seemed to have disappeared as they stared at the figure.

With three flags stuck behind his back, the goblin walked over from the side, neatly tying up Keno's green hair behind his head. A pair of golden bracelets wrapped around Keno's hands, and he retreated to the side to fight.

"Let's go …!" Keno's voice sounded a little shrill. The goblin's short body strode towards the direction of the whistle. Green hair hung down its back, and behind it was the group that belonged to it.

The Goblins' harsh cries reached the workers' ears. They looked up at the goblins behind Keno and lowered their heads again.

This time, was there someone else who was going to be caught …

Kyle looked through the forest to the place where he couldn't see anything. His heart was full of fighting spirit.

Keno was in the Goblin area deep within the Thunder Ruins. He was the King of the Thunder Ruins, a goblin legend. He had white skin and could call the wind and summon the rain.

It was very interested in the intruders this time. Since the intruders were able to get into its own Thunder Ruins, it meant that the Cursed Cat Demon had already been killed.

Thinking about that, Kyle couldn't help but sigh. It felt that its pet was actually not bad, and it was also this kind of Cursed Cat Demon with a relatively high level. When it came back, it would go to Poisonous Cat King to steal a Glowing Cat Demon.

Kyle let out an unpleasant laugh, and the rain cloud quietly followed behind him, moving bit by bit.

"… …"

This was a massacre. The highest level Green Goblin was killed by Liang Yue in a single strike without any reaction, and the other 10 captains were also killed by the others. The rain was still falling, and the Goblin's corpse was lying on the ground.

The Green Goblin's corpse had already turned into ice, but there was no elemental tempest like the one that had occurred at the beginning. Liang Yue could feel the water vapor in the air become even heavier.

The birds in the depths of the forest flew overhead in groups. Liang Yue gazed into the depths of the forest, his gaze cautious.

"Cory!" After stopping Kory, who was dragging the goblin corpse to a piece of land, Liang Yue asked, "How's your condition?"

Colley smiled, revealing some traces of being attacked, and said, "Not bad, just a few minor injuries."

Ke Li was the only one currently injured among the four of them. Because his strength wasn't particularly strong, he wasn't able to kill them in one blow like Liang Yue and the others. Liang Yue nodded, "Eat the recovery medicine. There should be some danger later on."

After pouring the nasty potion into their mouths, Cory shook his head, and the wounds slowly healed. Fire rose from the corpses, and the goblins' corpses were surrounded by fire, slowly burning away.

After resting for a while, the four of them continued their journey. Looking at the dark sky, it had already been a long time since they had entered the forest. It should be afternoon outside.

A depressing feeling could be felt from the depths of the forest. Birds were flying above their heads, and occasionally, some animals could be seen running out from the forest.

"Stop!" Liang Yue's tone was somewhat serious. She stared fixedly into the depths of the forest, as if she wanted to see through something. Suddenly, she opened her mouth and shouted, "Get out of the way!"

With a "hu" sound, sounds of breaking air came out from the white fog. Dozens of weapons made of stone rained down on them, smashing into the place where Liang Yue and the others were fighting, causing the sound of stone shattering.

They were attacked.

Suddenly attacked, the four of them ran to the side to avoid the long-ranged attacks. Hiding behind the trees, they watched the rolling white fog with serious expressions.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A rhythmic drumming sound came from the fog, and a dozen goblins walked out of the fog in a neat formation. Four green goblins were the first to walk out of the fog, wearing white masks that resembled cats.

Keno walked out from the white fog accompanied by the Frost Goblin. He looked at the people who were hiding in the forest in front of him.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk …"

He raised the scimitar in his hand and looked at the human behind the tree.

Swoosh!

"Boom —!" Thunder rumbled, and lightning struck their faces.

Yellow magic arrays gathered at Cory's feet.

Lightning converged from the clouds and was imprinted into Cory's eyes. The rolling clouds made his heart throb uneasily.

"Dodge!" Liang Yue let out a furious roar and dashed towards Cory. Cory blankly stared at the rolling clouds above his head, not paying any attention to the yellow magic array beneath his feet.

"Ka-cha!" Lightning landed and exploded on the ground. It split open the tree that Cory was hiding in, turning the surrounding ground into scorched earth.

Cory suddenly felt as if his head had been pricked with needles. Blood dripped from his nose, and he looked at the spot where he had been standing in great shock. He touched his stomach, which was in so much pain that it exploded, giving Liang Yue a grateful look.

He had just been smashed out by Liang Yue. Liang Yueshen's sword had hit his stomach and sent him flying. Otherwise, with just that one strike, he would have been paralyzed.

Kyle looked at Liang Yue with great interest, his eyes filled with a sense of ridicule as he said in a practiced voice, "You are the first person here to be able to see through my attack."

"Main quest updated!"

"Main quest updated!"

"Main line: The Goblin that can summon the wind and rain."

"When you were investigating the matter, you met the legendary goblin. The white one is a goblin legend. It has the ability to summon thunder and lightning. It is the king of the Thunder Ruins."

"Objective: Kill Keno!"

"Notification: Keno is caused by a light element mutation. It can summon lightning to attack. The yellow magic array on the ground is where the lightning strikes. The lightning strikes are delayed. Please pay attention to your weaknesses and kill!"

Cory drank a mouthful of the potion and felt a bit more energetic. He walked up to Liang Yue and met up with the three of them. The four of them looked at the goblins in front of them, and their eyes could not help but turn serious.

Liang Yue frowned as she looked at their leader, the white, mutated goblin, and said, "This is the legendary goblin, Keno. Pay attention to the magic formation beneath your feet. If there is a formation beneath your feet, immediately dodge!"

Keno looked at them and the goblins beside him were silent. When it saw the three of them, it stretched out its tongue and licked them. Its body's desire seemed to rush out. It looked at the only armored man in the team with a cruel look in its eyes.

With a wave of their hands, the clouds in the sky started rolling. A magic array condensed under their feet, and the wind became strong again. It blew across the entire forest, like a soundless howl.

"Sssii!"

The four of them split up and ran away. Liang Yue held the Divine Chasing Sword in her hand and looked at Keno, her eyes revealing a troublesome expression.

It looked like today, they were going to have another hard battle.

Lightning and clouds rolled above their heads, and Keno stood at the very front, watching them.

Today's prey was much better than before.
