I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

As soon as the first hopping black shadow appeared, Anno's entire field of vision was gradually filled with slimes.

"Chirp!"

The slimes, who usually disliked river water, jumped into it one after another and swam vigorously toward the adventurers on the other side.

Before long, the entire river surface was covered with a dense layer of slimes, at least hundreds of them.

More slimes are arriving from the grassland across the river!

Fortunately, the adventurers encountered even more slimes on their way here, so their fear did not increase.

"Watch out for the slimes' acid attack. Once they come up, take out some of them first, and then set the straw on fire when their numbers increase!"

During the preparations, Anno had the adventurers spread a layer of dry straw along the riverbank.

Once ignited, it can form a flame barrier.

It was originally intended to be used to deal with goblins.

But now the first wave of attacks is led by slimes, and there are so many of them, so we can only use them to deal with slimes later.

Indeed, when the slime began its attack, Anno and the others no longer harbored any illusions.

The slime uprising indicates a very high probability that the goblin army will attack tonight!

After many slimes drowned, the first batch of slimes finally made it ashore.

"Avoid the acid and quickly clear out some of it!"

Anno roared, and Lu Zhishang immediately led a group of people to kill the slime.

Some slimes were killed before they could even spray acid after coming ashore, leaving slime everywhere.

"Awooo~!"

The level 6 summoned wind wolf roared to the sky and suddenly darted out.

Where the wind wolf passed, the slime's shattered body tumbled through the air, leaving behind a cleared path.

However, apart from ranged classes, only about twenty of the thirty-odd adventurers were capable of launching an attack.

The area that these twenty-odd people can protect is far too short.

Despite Anno leading the wind wolves in relentless hunting of slimes, the number of slimes coming ashore continues to increase.

When the group was surrounded by hundreds of slimes, Anno immediately ordered the straw to be set on fire.

"boom!"

As the torch was thrown onto the straw, a flame as tall as a person suddenly shot up, interrupting the subsequent process of the slimes landing.

Taking advantage of the lull, the adventurers quickly cleared away the slimes around them.

So many slimes, their acid sprayed out intertwined, like a curtain of rain.

Fortunately, slimes lack intelligence and don't understand how to cooperate in batches.

Otherwise, they could easily overwhelm the adventurers before their magic ran out.

Even so, more than a dozen people were still hit by the acid.

Anno immediately led these people to the rear, where water bags had been prepared in advance.

Rinse the affected area with water to prevent further injury.

"Thump!"

Just as Anno had finished off the last few slimes, more than a dozen large slimes suddenly fell from the sky and landed neatly in Anno's camp.

These slimes were all over a meter tall, and as soon as they landed, they immediately chased after the nearby adventurers.

"What a huge slime!"

Some people were seeing such a large slime for the first time, and they screamed while dodging the slime's attacks from behind.

These large slimes were the same large slimes that Anno had hunted on the grasslands before.

Anno now has a large slime summon himself.

The [Devour] skill should be an advanced skill of [Eat].

Anno encountered this skill when fighting a large slime.

A huge mouth split open from the middle of his body. If Anno hadn't used his summoned slime to block it, he would have been the one swallowed up!

【Low-level Healing】is the means by which large slimes are restored.

Although the effect wasn't strong, when Anno summoned a large slime and learned about this skill, he always wanted to learn it.

Large slimes are not common, and their souls are difficult to collect.

But now, there are thirteen giant slimes right in front of you!

Seeing the adventurers being chased, Anno couldn't help but draw his short sword and charge forward.

"Get out of the way, I'll handle it!"

Anno summoned a level 6 Wind Wolf and summoned a large slime.

"Thank you, Chairman!"

Rajil, who had been chased, got up from the ground, feeling a wave of fear.

The giant slime shrank back as it saw the human and beast blocking its way, about to unleash its acid attack.

"Although you're both level 6, you're far too weak compared to other monsters!"

Anno easily dodged the acid from the giant slime with a few leaps.

The next instant, he and the wind wolf charged forward together.

"Pfft!"

The large slime had several wounds torn open on both sides of its body by short swords and wolf claws, causing its health to drop by 200 points.

Meanwhile, the mucus flowing from the wound caused the large slime's health to keep decreasing.

However, under the effect of [basic healing], the wound is continuously healing.

"Chirp!"

The injured giant slime turned towards Anno and charged at him with all its might.

"Thump!"

The giant slime missed its target, smashing down a section of the earthen wall.

"At the same level, fighting slimes is much easier!"

Anno's strength and speed have greatly improved since he reached level 6.

In terms of melee combat alone, he can take on three or four of his own level 5 counterparts.

Therefore, Anno felt quite relaxed when facing large slimes.

"rub!"

Anno charged forward again to the giant slime, thrusting his short sword repeatedly.

As Anno approached, the giant slime split its body in the middle, attempting to swallow him whole.

Seeing this, Anno remained completely calm and fired a [High-Pressure Acid Burst] inside!

boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!

Five consecutive shots of acid not only forced the giant slime to close its "mouth" again, but also pierced its body!

Soon, the giant slime's health was reduced to zero under the combined attacks of Anno and the wind wolf.

[Obtain Large Slime Soul (Green) x1]

The whole process took less than ten seconds!

Anno has used nine of his ten summoning slots: one level 6 wind wolf, three level 5 wind wolves (one of which is assisting Lü Yan, while the other two are hunting slimes around Anno), one large slime (in the summoning space), and four level 5 goblins (searching for monster troops on the grassland across the river).

The battle is quite chaotic right now, and Anno doesn't plan to summon any large slimes to fight, so as to avoid being accidentally injured.

"Perfect timing to collect some souls and learn [low-level healing]."

Learning [Low-Level Healing] requires 50 Large Slime Souls (Green). Anno's gaze changed as he looked at the large slimes around him!

Next, Anno set his sights on the large slimes.

Many slimes were eliminated by Anno and the Wind Wolf's slaughter.

Half an hour later, the slime's attack slowed down.

A third of the adventurers were also injured. Some of the more seriously injured were sent to town to be treated by the old priest, Liu Rongrong, and Ningwen before returning to the battlefield.

Before everyone could rest for long, the slime's second wave of attacks began!

"These brainless bastards, do they even know anything about tactics?"

Anno was startled, but he could only lead everyone to hunt down slimes once again.

More than three hours later, the adventurers were exhausted.

The riverbanks were covered with tattered slime skins.

Some people even collected them, intending to exchange them for money later.

But now, everyone is disgusted by slimes.

In just a few hours, Anno's team alone has hunted down nearly five thousand slimes.

Many people have leveled up.

However, the physical and magical energy consumed cannot be replenished.

Many mage classes have long since run out of mana.

Moreover, as more and more people were injured and could not receive treatment—and the priests ran out of magic, the defensive line could only keep retreating.

There's nothing we can do about it.

There were too many slimes, and the attack was concentrated on one area.

Teams from other areas dared not be mobilized before the monster forces appeared.

Even if the town's resting guards and mercenaries were brought in to guard the town, they wouldn't be able to kill them all in a short time.

The consequence of the defensive line being pulled back was that Anno completely lost sight of both sides of the moat.

Amidst the ever-charging army of slimes, a few kobolds carrying a log over ten meters long mingled among them.

They carried logs across the river and then laid them on both sides to form a passage.

While the kobolds may be intelligent, they certainly don't possess any tactics.

Everything they are doing now is under the command of that cloaked demon.

Or rather, tonight's monster attack on the village, including the slime uprising, was all orchestrated by that unknown demon.

After the logs were laid out, dozens of goblins wearing helmets and light armor stood up from the bushes with wicked grins and stepped across the river on the logs.

Anno, who was searching for a giant slime, suddenly noticed something unusual on the river.

He immediately rode the Wind Wolf over, ready to attack the dark figure on the log.

However, the goblin used its claws to grip the wood, stabilized itself, and easily ran to the other side of the river.

Apart from the two goblins that were hit by the [High-Pressure Acid Burst] and fell into the river with screams, the other goblins crossed the river safely.

Anno was quite surprised when he realized that these monsters were goblins.

"I didn't find any trace of the summoned goblins I placed around here, so how did they sneak in?"

After a rough count, Anno found that there were about thirty goblins in the group, all of them below level 5, but they were well-equipped!

Far better than adventurers!

"So they really did use the slimes as cover, then sneaked in amidst the chaos!"

Now that they've encountered the goblins, Anno and the others can be considered to have completed their mission!

He took a signal flare out of the package and lit the fuse.

"Slap!" "Slap!" "Slap!"

Three red signal flares exploded in the air almost simultaneously.

The other two, judging from their directions, belong to Xue Feibai's and Meng Xin's teams, respectively.

In front of the town council hall.

Rodney saw the signal flare in the sky and immediately woke up the resting guards and mercenaries, who were then ready to go!
