He felt his bones become harder in just a few breaths.
And then...
"Snap!"
With a sudden effort of his right thumb, he bent his forefinger into a backward joint position.
But in the next moment.
The forefinger quickly returned to its original state under a magical force.
The joints inside the finger, shattered by the violent motion, were also fully healed.
The dual strength and physique of 15 had already taken his body beyond the usual state any ordinary person should possess, moving towards a monstrous transformation.
It should be noted that he hadn’t activated any enhancement states now—Ghost Transformation, Hardened Scale Bloodline, Body Multiplication were all inactive, yet his normal state had this effect. Once activated, his self-healing ability would only become more abnormal.
As for the Intelligence Attribute, the intelligence attribute points added by the purple-quality equipment Moonlight Robe were also overridden.
"Phew—"
He stretched lazily.
The boost this time was not limited to attributes.
There was also that 1% of divine substance.
A few days ago, he was considering where to procure such a thing.
After all, before slaying that goblin leader, he’d already killed nearly twenty thousand monsters without obtaining any divine substance.
Moreover, the strength of that goblin leader ranged between level 6 to level 7, not the strongest among the monsters he hunted, indicating that this divine substance had no direct correlation with the monster’s current strength.
Unexpectedly, when he surpassed ten thousand goblin kills, he was rewarded with 1% of divine substance.
He could feel an indescribable force within his body swelling considerably.
It wasn’t like attribute points that bring a direct change in strength; it felt more like a higher-dimensional power, akin to an amplifier.
His Profession core, Magic Cup, and Sword Soul had become more solid.
At the same time, he seemed to sense his speed of strengthening had accelerated considerably.
[Goblin Expert]
Current Effect 1: Star Destruction.
In battles against goblins and related advanced race creatures, the damage from attacks is increased by an additional 40% (with special effects critical hit; you have a certain probability of triggering a critical hit...)
Effect 2: Bloodthirst.
When slaying goblins and related advanced race creatures, there is a chance to recover 5% stamina.
Effect 3: Intimidation.
Possess powerful intimidation against goblins and related advanced races, causing enemies’ status to decline varying degrees when faced with you.
The enhancement effects of the title are quite significant; besides the increase of values in effects 1 and 2, there’s an additional effect 3, Intimidation.
Thinking of this, he looked toward the goblins scurrying away in panic beneath him. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
His gaze locked onto one of them.
Instantly, that condensed tangible mental pressure was imposed on the ordinary weak goblin through the intimidation effect of the title [Goblin Expert].
"Boom!"
The small green-skinned imp, rolling and scrambling to flee from the core battlefield, suddenly stiffened.
In an instant, a terrifying pressure transmitted from the top of its head behind the brain.
Its cloudy eyeballs turned pale white.
The next moment, it lost its strength, its muscles convulsed, and collapsed onto the ground, foaming at the mouth and nose.
"Goblin*1 killed."
This weak goblin was actually scared to death by Gauss!
Gauss raised his eyebrows.
Turns out the description in effect 3 of the title was quite conservative.
This is not just a decline in status; its life was scared away directly.
However, he quickly realized the problem.
The description of the intimidation effect only represents the power of the title itself, but considering his and that goblin’s massive gap in strength—his full 17 Intelligence Attribute and mighty soul power—these factors obviously amplify the intimidation effect.
So he achieved this kind of "eye killer" powerful effect.
To further experiment, he quickly shifted his gaze to another goblin not far away.
Squinting slightly, he focused on the goblin.
The next second.
That goblin, terrified, also lost its ability to act, collapsed to the ground, and died, foaming at the mouth.
"The speed seems to be slower than before."
Gauss continued testing.
Soon, he concluded a pattern.
The stronger the goblin, the harder to scare to death instantly; some only collapse on the ground, exhausted but not immediately killed.
The closer the goblin’s strength is, the poorer its physical and mental state, the higher the probability of sudden death.
The team members on the ground, engaged in slaughter, noticed those inexplicably dead goblins and glanced at Gauss.
Although unsure what method Gauss used, they guessed it was him taking action.
Soon, this nest of over a hundred goblins met its end.
This was the last nest during this outing and also the largest one.
"Total monsters killed: 19777"
"Let’s head back."
After packing all the loot, the team started their return.
"Roar~"
"Understood, once back, I’ll have someone buy it for you."
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Gauss conversed with Hephaestus.
These past few days it was worn out, constantly flying, surviving only on monster corpses. freёwebnovel.com
Gauss could only promise it a change of taste after returning to the town.
After all, the money earned on this trip was estimated to be quite substantial.
The Red Dragon cut through the sky.
As they approached Farlim, they gradually descended in altitude.
In front of the city gates, ordinary citizens lining up to enter the city instinctively raised their heads, seeing those large wings, their mouths instinctively dropped open.
Not far away, the patrolling Griffin Knights also intentionally flew further away, fearing that their mounts below would be startled by the Red Dragon Beast.
