Chapter 456: Chapter 455 Kill Goblin Wolf Cavalry

As the Twisted Wave rippled outward, the first to bear the brunt was a Goblin Wolf Cavalry positioned directly below Zhang Yanhang, who was still obliviously shouting in the Nu Mountain Tribe dialect.

The moment the invisible Twisted Wave enveloped him, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry’s skin protection, which was even stronger than the exoskeleton of a Crimson Iron Ant, cracked and crumbled from its original palm-size into fine, snake-scale-like fragments.

And if the strongest defense on his body—the Dragon Scales—had shattered like this, then the unprotected fragile skin of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry was, of course, even less able to withstand the Twisted Wave.

His green skin was extensively torn and flipped, revealing the tightly connected green muscle tissue beneath and the arteries flowing with green blood that smelled like rotten eggs.

Under the intense pressure of the Twisted Force Field, these arterial vessels surged as if suddenly pressurized, propelling the green blood up into the air, splashing as high as over three meters.

In this regard, the Dragon Vein Goblin fared much better than the Crimson Iron Ant. The ant’s blood was quite viscous, so even when externally squeezed, it couldn’t splash very far.

But the blood of the Dragon Vein Goblin had a viscosity similar to that of humans. Thus, just a light squeeze by the distorting force of the Death Wave caused its blood to splash outward like fresh tomato juice.

Even because the distorting power of the Death Wave was overwhelmingly effective, the amount of "juice" that splashed out was comparable to having a large water hose forcibly inserted into the body, an exaggerated spectacle indeed.

However, unlike the lasting endurance of a water hose, this large amount of blood erupting from the Goblin Wolf Cavalry’s body was due to an instantaneous squeezing out of most of the blood inside, creating an ephemeral burst of gore.

As a price of the arterial pressure increase, the chest of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry deeply caved in; the breastbone suffered comminuted fractures, muscle tissues tore, and blood vessels were severed—a gamut of fatal symptoms manifested on the Goblin Wolf Cavalry.

Of course, the most vital organ—the heart—had already stopped beating, because the moment it was swept by the Death Wave, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry had already become a corpse.

With the cavalry dominating the scene turning into such a state, the mount wolves naturally could not escape; in fact, the wolf sitting under the Goblin Wolf Cavalry fell into a state of death simultaneously, now displaying a gory, unwilling-to-die situation with blood oozing from its orifices.

Yet in realistic terms, seeing the wild wolf beneath the Goblin Wolf Cavalry stick out its tongue and collapse, if one ignored the blood flowing from the orifices on its head, it somewhat resembled a pet dog that had just been anesthetized and then skillfully neutered by a bomb disposal expert.

By the way, the blood inside these wolves was a very normal bright red, indicating that they were just ordinary wolves, with no kinship related to the Dragon Vein Goblin.

The reason Zhang Yanhang suddenly became concerned about this was mainly that he had read many such absurd tales in his youth.

For instance, those stories where a mother gives birth to both a wolf-shaped Goblin and a normal Goblin, who then grow up to become a pair of Goblin Wolf Cavalry brothers connected intimately both in spirit and in heart.

To be honest, this story is truly far-fetched. Even with magic elements involved, it remains quite unbelievable, especially since Dragon Vein Goblins inherently possess no wolf lineage, meaning the mother Goblin would need to seek breeding with male wolves.

In such a scenario, the male goblins responsible for normal reproduction would definitely be very green, although they were quite green to begin with.

Or it might even be a more bizarre chimera form, with a goblin’s upper body sprouting from the wolf’s waist. Of course, it didn’t necessarily have to grow from the waist—it could be like a centaur where the goblin’s upper body replaces the wolf’s head as well. But either way, it would feel quite tainted.

All in all, Zhang Yanhang felt fortunate to have encountered the most normal Goblin Wolf Cavalry.

Of course, although there was no blood relation between the wild wolves and the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, a basic symbiotic relationship must still exist. Zhang Yanhang did not receive the kill notification for the wild wolves, only the separate kill notification for the Goblin Wolf Cavalry.

...

The lone surviving Goblin Wolf Cavalry felt an unprecedented wave of fear upon seeing its comrades suddenly turned into corpses in an instant. It touched the green blood splattered on itself, looked at the fragments of limbs on the ground, and instinctively activated its escape skill, driving the wild wolf beneath it to swiftly run towards its tribe’s settlement.

"I didn’t expect that the first use of this feature to mark friendly targets would be on this Goblin Wolf Cavalry. Now it seems this additional attribute to prevent friendly fire is quite useful after all—it at least allows one survivor to go back and report."

But having said that, Zhang Yanhang still preferred additional attributes that enhanced killing efficiency. After all, having purposely used the Death Wave Skill and thinking of leaving a survivor was not a common occurrence.

Zhang Yanhang briefly counted the number of Goblin Wolf Cavalry he had killed just now—about sixty or so. If nothing unexpected happened, they should drop three to four Treasure boxes.

Of course, apart from the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, Zhang Yanhang also took the opportunity to kill about a hundred Big Saber Goblins and a few Goblin Spear Throwers, which together should also drop several more Treasure boxes.

"Speaking of which, how come the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, which is so much stronger than the Goblin Spear Throwers, is still only worth ten Soul points? Is it because the Goblin Spear Throwers, being ranged troops, have some special bonus that makes them equivalent to the Goblin Wolf Cavalry?"

The more Zhang Yanhang thought about it, the more this reason seemed to make sense.
