Chapter 223: "Unique Skill – Inukami"
"Gah!!! Inukami! Damn beast!"
Luo Yong sensed impending danger the moment he heard that familiar roar. Whirling around, he indeed witnessed the accursed canine massacring his goblin subordinates.
Abandoning his previous intention to slowly torment his prey, he closed the distance to the green-haired girl in three swift strides.
"Die!"
His fist lashed out violently.
Crack—
The maiden’s cranium burst like overripe fruit, painting the tree trunk behind her with crimson and ivory hues.
The corpse appeared utterly lifeless.
After a cursory glance, Luo Yong spun back toward the cavern, rage-fueled determination fixated on eliminating the monster near the cave entrance. Yet as he pivoted, an ethereal glow enveloped the supposedly deceased girl. Under this luminescence, her pulverized skull reconstituted itself, flesh knitting back into perfect form.
Within moments, the dead breathed again.
The gaping chest wound sealed instantaneously while severed limbs regenerated from stumps. All agony from injuries vanished – her condition fully restored except for depleted Magic Value.
Lvzi blinked in momentary disorientation from her first resurrection via the "Immortality" skill before focusing ahead. Her emerald eyes tracked the retreating Goblin King toward the cave, then locked gazes with distant figures of Army Lady and Stealth One.
Nodding curtly, the verdant-haired girl gestured toward a specific rearward direction before darting off like a jade arrow. Her companions immediately grasped the signal.
"Lvzi’s safe. Time for our exit."
"That brute’s focused on the golden-furred monster. We’ll seize this chance—"
Shared understanding flashed between them as they breached the goblin ranks. The horde’s formation had already collapsed into pandemonium under the mysterious monster’s assault, allowing clean escape.
Once free, the duo maintained their frantic pace without slowing. A fleeting backward glance confirmed Luo Yong’s priorities – the reincarnator was plowing through panicked goblins toward…
There!
A massive lupine creature with golden hackles stood revealed. As Luo Yong neared, the beast halted its rampage, crouching low with bared fangs that rumbled hostile warnings.
"It! That’s another reincarnator!"
Stealth One’s shocked cry pierced the air.
"What?!"
Army Lady’s eyes widened. Without hesitation, she activated Identification upon the primal figure.
Indeed.
They found a skill labeled "Unique Skill—Inukami" within the skills section.
Additionally, they noticed the Yellow-haired Wolf’s level surpassed Luo Yong’s, reaching Class A, Level 2.
Though its agility far exceeded the Goblin King’s, its other attributes paled in comparison, barely surpassing those of Army Lady and Stealth One.
As Luo Yong closed in, he snarled a curse and lunged at the Yellow-haired Wolf.
The two clashed violently.
The wolf’s speed outmatched Luo Yong’s, and its combat expertise shone through as it deftly evaded his sword strikes, weaving around him to leave shallow wounds across his body.
Yet due to Luo Yong’s formidable Physical Resistance Ability, the Giant Yellow Wolf’s attacks inflicted minimal damage.
Seemingly realizing Luo Yong’s attributes had surged beyond previous levels, the wolf’s eyes flickered with human-like astonishment.
After a dozen exchanges, the Giant Yellow Wolf abandoned the fight, leaping back to pursue the gravely injured Goblin Wizards and Goblin Warriors still clinging to life.
“Gaba!”
“Gaba!”
Short, guttural shrieks punctuated the air as the goblins fell one by one beneath fangs and claws.
“Look! The stats on that reincarnator’s Attribute Panel—they’re dropping!”
Having retreated to a safe distance, Stealth One steadied her breathing while monitoring Luo Yong and the wolf’s panels.
“They truly are diminishing… but why?”
The two ants shared a sudden realization, their focus snapping to the wolf.
With every goblin slain, Luo Yong’s attributes dwindled—sometimes his Health Value Limit, other times his Magic Value Limit, or traits like strength and agility.
The decline proved subtle when common goblins perished, but became starkly evident whenever a Goblin Wizard or Warrior fell.
“Eliminating his goblins weakens him!”
“Likely the effect of his ‘Unique Skill—Goblin King.’”
Stealth One nodded, eyes narrowing.
“Mother’s Unique Skill grants her abilities to us, while this reincarnator’s works inversely… His attributes amplify based on the quantity and caliber of goblins he commands.”
“Then slaughtering all his goblins could defeat him?”
Army Lady halted abruptly, her gaze sharpening.
The memory of Lvzi’s severed arms flashed vividly—though she disliked the girl, Lvzi remained Mother’s daughter. That brute would pay.
Yet Stealth One restrained her.
“Not yet. These goblins are mere fragments of his forces. Our true targets are the dozen Goblin Tribes we encountered earlier—undoubtedly his subordinates too.”
“Those? By now, they’ve likely neared Granville Monster Forest. Mother and the others will handle them.”
“Precisely. Thus, this battle isn’t ours to claim.”
Stealth One affirmed.
Their attention returned to Luo Yong’s duel with the Giant Yellow Wolf.
…
“Bastard! Damned yellow-furred mutt!!”
Witnessing his painstakingly raised Class B followers perish, Luo Yong’s eyes burned crimson.
His green skin flushed scarlet as he activated a skill—heat radiating from his body, twisting his features into something demonic rather than goblinoid.
“That must be ‘Berserk.’”
“His attributes now surpass their original values. The wolf’s in peril.”
As Stealth One predicted, the berserk Luo Yong materialized before the wolf mid-slaughter, empowered strength and agility fueling a thunderous punch.
“Awooo!”
The wolf’s pained howl echoed as it hurtled through the air, crushing several goblins upon impact.
“We must flee! Once that wolf falls, we’re next.”
Stealth One paled, yanking Army Lady’s arm toward Lvzi’s last known location.
“Regroup with her first.”
“Understood.”
