Chapter 460: Chapter 459: Short Knife Goblin

[Item Two]

[Option One: Goblin Cleaver, Green quality, Weapon]

[Option Two: 50 Soul points]

[Option Three: 100 Soul points]

"I let go of the green quality Dragon Claw earlier, but this green quality Goblin Cleaver seems a bit off. The cleaver held by the Goblin Wolf Cavalry is clearly of much higher quality than the ordinary sabers held by the Big Saber Goblins, so why is it still just green quality?"

Zhang Yanhang found it somewhat incomprehensible.

"Could it be that the Goblin Cleaver in the treasure box is a shoddy Pinduoduo version? That shouldn’t be the case, right?" Wondering, Zhang Yanhang briefly checked the attribute list of the Goblin Cleaver and then discovered the issue.

Overall, the Goblin Cleaver was indeed slightly better than the ordinary Goblin Greatsword, reflected in the score as the Goblin Greatsword only managed to scrape by as a low-score weapon of green quality, whereas the Goblin Cleaver was a full-score green quality weapon.

Zhang Yanhang was so concerned about the quality of the cleaver held by the Goblin Wolf Cavalry primarily because he had always thought that the cleaver could potentially be of blue quality and have value for recycling, by forcefully merging a quantity of them, it could perhaps be enhanced to dark purple quality.

However, the options that came out of the chest were only green quality, which deeply disappointed Zhang Yanhang. With this, even if he could forcefully break through the limit by quantity, it could only be enhanced to purple quality at most, completely losing its recycling value.

By the way, the same goes for the palm of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry. Before this, Zhang Yanhang had always been hoping that the materials from the First Tier Three Star Dragon Vein Goblin might reach blue quality and then have the value to be refined into a magic potion by him, but regrettably, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry fell short in this aspect.

"Whether it’s weapon quality or material quality, this First Tier Three Star monster is a letdown. Perhaps, for a first-tier monster, one shouldn’t harbor unrealistic expectations from the start."

Zhang Yanhang felt he should just realistically expect higher-quality materials from second-tier monsters. Normally, their materials should at least possess blue quality, otherwise it really wouldn’t justify their level.

"But if even second-tier monsters aren’t up to par, then perhaps I should only look forward to the sole third-tier monster on the Goblin Plain, Goblin Chief·Nu Mountain."

This time, Zhang Yanhang was smarter and certainly wouldn’t just obliterate the Goblin Chief like he did the Crimson Iron Ant Queen, though controlling the fight isn’t that easy.

But Zhang Yanhang had prepared to let the Goblin Chief die a little more intact. It might indeed be difficult to leave a whole corpse, but at least getting half a body’s worth of meat shouldn’t be a big problem.

"But still, it is a third-tier monster, and since this is my first encounter with a third-tier monster, I feel I should show some respect."

As for what this respect specifically entails, Zhang Yanhang could only say that when he uses the Goblin Chief’s body to make a magic potion later, he’ll definitely be extra careful not to waste it, after all, these are one-time, unique materials.

[Item Three]

[Option One: 10 Soul points]

[Option Two: Short Knife Goblin, White quality, Pet]

[Option Three: 100 Soul points]

"I thought the third option might be equipment, but I didn’t expect all three to be Soul points options.

I mean, the pet in this option is still a white-quality Goblin, despite being a First Tier Three Star. Couldn’t there be a green-quality Goblin to broaden my horizons?"

Since the Short Knife Goblin was another type of goblin Zhang Yanhang hadn’t encountered before, out of curiosity, he quickly checked the attribute list of the Short Knife Goblin, and unsurprisingly, this Short Knife Goblin was part of the ordinary Goblin series, just like the previous Stick Goblin and Spear Goblin.

Ranked the same as the previous Spear Goblin that had appeared in the treasure box of the Goblin Spear Thrower, all were First Tier One Star, but unlike the Spear Goblin and Stick Goblin who are responsible for frontline combat, the main duty of the Short Knife Goblin was to sneak attack the enemy during the Spear Goblin’s attacks.

It wasn’t clear if it was because they were better at solo fighting, but the attribute value of the Short Knife Goblin was slightly higher than that of the Spear Goblin; however, because its mortality rate is also quite high, in terms of status, it’s essentially as expendable as the Spear Goblin.

And if you ask who is at the very bottom of the fodder ladder? That would definitely be the Stick Goblin, a First Tier Zero Star monster, inherently the weakest, destined to be defeated by just about any ordinary adult, even if barehanded.

Especially given the Stick Goblin’s height of less than one meter, any Average Adult male could easily kick it down to the ground. Of course, this refers to adult males, women might indeed struggle.

Of course, this is specifying barehanded scenarios. If women were equipped with a commonly found household weapon, such as a kitchen knife or a fruit knife, they could easily topple a Stick Goblin, as the physical size advantage allows for overwhelming force.

"I hope the next option will include equipment that increases Movement Speed." Faced with the penultimate option, Zhang Yanhang couldn’t help but pray a little, as there is a fifty percent chance this option could include equipment.

With a slightly nervous heart, Zhang Yanhang clicked to open the fourth item.

[Item Four]

[Option One: Thin Dragon Vein (Mixed), Quality E, Talent]

[Option Two: Dragon Vein Goblin (Goblin Spear Thrower), D-Level Quality, Talent]

[Option Three: Dragon Vein Goblin (Goblin Wolf Cavalry), D-Level Quality, Talent]

"Well, it’s still not equipment, so it looks like the equipment that could increase Movement Speed must be in the last option. Of course, it doesn’t necessarily have to be equipment that increases Movement Speed, as long as it’s not the Dragon Power Bracelet, I can accept whatever equipment comes out," explained Zhang Yanhang, his mindset still quite balanced. Although obtaining equipment that increases Movement Speed would be the best outcome, as long as it isn’t the worst Dragon Power Bracelet, he was also open to more ordinary outcomes, like equipment that could increase the Charm attribute.
