All the adventurers held their breath.

Although there were far fewer monsters ahead, and their levels were not high.

But in the chaos of battle, anyone can get injured.

Avoid getting hurt as much as possible; completing the task of occupying the church is what everyone needs to do.

Sensing that the four monsters on the periphery had been discovered by the other monsters, Anno sent them to scatter and distract the three hundred monsters.

"Phew!"

Anno gently exhaled a breath of stale air, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.

"Charge with me!"

Anno roared and immediately rushed out of the woods to the open space around the church.

Behind him stood a group of Iron-level adventurers!

Everyone clearly felt that their strength had increased slightly. They understood that this was the skill bonus effect that the guild leader had mentioned before, which could increase their combat power by 10%.

The sudden appearance of the humans startled the monsters resting nearby.

But they quickly realized what was happening, and hundreds of monsters shouted as they picked up their weapons and aimed them at the humans in front of them.

Whoosh whoosh!

Mark, who was standing next to Anno, quickly drew his bow and released the arrow.

Three arrows were fired at the goblin archer high up in the church, each hitting a vital spot.

The hunters in the group also shot arrows while running.

Geng Qingxue and the other mage classes also began preparing their spells.

Boom boom boom!

Several spells flew into the monster horde, instantly killing several monsters.

The next moment, Anno, leading more than thirty melee fighters, clashed with the monsters.

Suddenly, shouts of battle, the clash of swords, the screams of monsters, and the sounds of skills being unleashed rang out simultaneously.

Anno raised his shield with his left hand to block the attack of a kobold charging towards him, then swiftly thrust his longsword with his right hand, leaving a hole in the kobold's heart.

"High-pressure acid burst!"

Five plumes of acid flew out, helping a nearby melee adventurer take down a goblin.

Snapped!

With the crack of a whip, a monster that had just rushed in front of Anno was sent flying by Liz's whip, its skin torn and bleeding where it was struck.

call out!

A huge fireball flew out from behind the adventurer and landed in the center of the monster.

boom!

A huge flame rose up, engulfing all the dozen or so goblins around it.

People and monsters nearby felt the high temperature around them and involuntarily took a few steps to the side.

"What amazing magic!"

Geng Qingxue looked at the goblin priest beside her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Another level 7 female mage said thankfully, "Luckily, this was the guild leader's summoned creature, otherwise it would have caused us a lot of casualties!"

Anno was overjoyed as he watched the advancing ranks.

At the start of the battle, they swiftly eliminated nearly twenty goblins, putting them in a very favorable position.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, a figure suddenly flew past Anno's eyes and knocked down another adventurer.

"puff!"

Lu Zhishang coughed up a mouthful of blood after landing.

Before he could even look at the wound on his shoulder, he quickly warned the adventurers around him, "Everyone be careful, that guy is tough!"

It was the scythe goblin that sent Lu Zhishang flying.

Liu Rongrong quickly ran to Lu Zhishang's side under the protection of a hunter and treated the gruesome wound on his shoulder caused by the sickle.

Anno looked toward the Scythe Goblin and saw that the Scythe Goblin had joined the battle with two level 10 goblins and eight level 9 goblins.

These goblins were almost all capable of taking on several opponents at once, instantly halting the adventurers' momentum.

Moreover, with them blocking the way, the lower-level monsters retreat to the side, mainly to harass the enemy.

Many adventurers began to get injured.

Among the Iron-level adventurers that Anno brought, besides Mark who was level 10, there was also a level 10 warrior named Hansen.

The latter was the prized disciple of the Val'kam warrior mentor.

Mark and Hansen exchanged a glance, then each confronted one of the two level 10 goblins standing next to the scythe goblin.

As for Anno, he was confronted by the Scythe Goblin.

Liz stood next to Anno, ready to launch a sneak attack at any moment—at this moment, Liz used the [Disguise] skill to disguise herself as a level 8!

"High-pressure acid burst!"

Facing the scythe goblin, Anno didn't hesitate to throw out five blobs of acid.

Seeing this, the scythe goblin swung its scythes so tightly that they blocked all the acid.

After blocking the last glob of acid, the scythe goblin threw its scythe at Anno.

"Higher-level perception!"

Anno, having activated his skill, quickly dodged to the side, and then, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, turned around and used his shield to block the scythe that the scythe goblin had pulled back.

Whoosh!

The scythe goblin caught the weapon that had been pulled back and charged toward Anno.

As it approached, the scythe goblin leaped into the air and swung its scythes downwards with both hands.

The blade of the scythe gleamed, clearly indicating that a skill had been used.

Anno knew that the Scythe Goblin had four skills: [Tenacity], [Slash], [Flying Scythe], and [Chain Strangulation].

That was the [Flying Scythe], this must be the [Slash].

Instead of taking the skill head-on, Anno rolled to the side.

After the scythe goblin missed its target, it threw the scythe at Anno again.

puff!

The scythe was driven into the soil several centimeters deep, then pulled out by the scythe goblin, spun once in the air, and flew towards Anno's location.

The scythe goblin's attacks were very fluid, and even with Anno's [Advanced Perception] activated, he could only dodge in a sorry state.

After all, he's not a melee specialist.

Compared to elite forces like the Scythe Goblins, Anno's melee combat skills are still somewhat lacking.

Before long, Anno's arms and legs were slashed with several wounds by the scythe goblin's weapon.

However, with the treatment of "basic healing", the wounds are slowly healing.

"snort!"

The scythe goblin looked at Anno, who was panting heavily, and a hint of disdain flashed across its lips.

From the moment the monsters appeared on the outskirts, it had considered that enemies might have designs on its stronghold.

But to its surprise, only fifty people came, and only three of them were level 10.

Fifty humans may not seem like a small number, but it was prepared in advance.

Under its command, the subordinates who went out to hunt monsters would return after a few minutes of chasing the monsters if they found them fleeing and not engaging in battle!

After wiping the sweat from her face, Anno suddenly froze.

I sensed that the goblins that were chasing the monster had suddenly stopped and were now quickly returning to the church!

"This... goodness, so you already guessed there would be an attack!" Anno stared at the goblin wielding a scythe in front of him, marveling at the goblin's cunning.

It would take at least three minutes to get from the outside to the church at full speed.

In other words, if Anno cannot rush into the church within three minutes, he will be surrounded by hundreds of monsters that have returned.

The scythe goblin knew this, so it wasn't in a hurry at all.

Judging from the strength that Anno and the other humans have shown so far, it is absolutely impossible for them to defeat them in three minutes.

They might even defeat us!

"In that case, there's no point in leaving the monsters on the outskirts!" Anno dodged the scythe goblin's attack again, a smile appearing on his lips.

Five seconds later, a level 10 Earth Bear, a Tree Vine Beast, a Brown Tiger, and a level 9 Punch-Punch Kangaroo appeared next to Anno at the same time.

As soon as they appeared, the four monsters pounced on the scythe goblin that was frozen in place.

At the same time, Anno caught the magic staff thrown by the goblin priest.

[Poisonous Fungus] skill activated!
