The goblin leader carefully observed the surroundings but found nothing.
He turned to look at his tribesmen, only to find they had already scattered again, climbing up and down nearby, either chasing the sparrows resting in the jungle or grappling together in a fight.
His mood couldn’t help but become more irritated.
Just as he was about to head to the warehouse to fill his stomach, the air suddenly became exceptionally quiet for a moment.
Then, the air temperature, which had been relatively cool, began to rise sharply.
He raised his head, only to see a small point in front gradually releasing a blinding light, and as he noticed it, that small point was rapidly expanding.
"Roar!!!!"
He let out a loud roar, his whole body bristling with sweat.
Then he twisted his body, his feet generating immense power, propelling his body to fly away into the distance.
Behind him, the expanding scorching airwave closely followed.
"Boom!"
With one foot, he crushed the wooden platform, wood chips flying as he leaped up, landing on the bark of a distant dry giant tree.
Immediately afterward, his claws, akin to rock nails, deeply embedded in the tree bark, and relying on the friction provided by his claws, this goblin leader, resembling a giant ape, rapidly ran along the massive tree trunk.
"Boom!!!"
Fireballs exploded at the center of the goblin nest camp.
The surging flames and airwaves spread in rings towards the surroundings.
Nearby wooden platforms, nets, and tree barks were blasted apart, along with figures screaming and rolling in the firelight, like leaves scattered by the wind, falling from a height.
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!"
Before running far, the goblin leader hiding behind cover peeked out to check the situation, and two more violent explosions echoed in the nest.
Flying in mid-air, Gauss ignored the goblin leader who had hid far away.
His gaze swept across the burning Tree City below.
The three fireball techniques just now had already blown up several large transportation hub platforms in this goblin tree city nest, which was the point of using the fireball technique.
Given the scattered density of other goblins, using fireball techniques would be costly.
He retrieved the White Magic Wand with his right hand.
"Ice Storm!"
With an incantation in middle dragon language.
A terrifying Power of Cold exploded from his body as the origin point.
The clouds in the sky rapidly gathered.
When he was preparing to cast spells, one by one, goblins popped their heads out from shooting windows inside the nearby giant trees, then pulled bows to shoot at him.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Suddenly, arrows shot from all directions.
However, most of them couldn’t hit Gauss who landed directly above the nest, either due to insufficient range or poor accuracy, while the few arrows that hit him were immediately deflected by the mithril light armor he wore.
His gaze turned to a few goblins on the distant branches, drawing bows there.
But in the next moment, as his gaze focused on them.
A terrible momentum descended.
They seemed to be suddenly choked by an invisible large hand.
Their entire bodies instantly lost their strength, their bodies swayed a few times, and their feet slipped, followed by a few sharp screams falling below.
As for the goblin leader, upon realizing Gauss was casting a magic spell that could change celestial phenomena, he finally jumped out from behind cover.
His back still bore traces of singed fur at this moment.
However, he couldn’t spare attention to it anymore.
He sensed an exceedingly terrifying power emanating from Gauss.
For some reason, he felt his body become somewhat heavy and sluggish.
"Roar!"
With a low growl to encourage himself, he leaped in several bounds towards Gauss’s direction.
An instinctual feeling told him if he didn’t take this chance to launch an attack, that man exuding a devil-like momentum would completely destroy their nest.
"Boom!"
Before he could get closer.
Two shadows shot toward him like spears, aiming directly for his front.
He had to force himself to stop, watching warily with his eyes at the two shadows forming in front of him.
Ying also appeared along with the shadow.
"Don’t even think about getting through."
Three figures headed for him in a deadly assault.
In the sky.
Gauss completed Ice Storm casting.
The clouds in the sky had thoroughly gathered, and countless hailstones wrapped in cold air descended from the heavens.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Green-skinned figures were struck by hailstones or frozen into ice blocks by the cold air released upon impact and then fell to the ground, shattering completely, losing all life force.
Frost descended, and the early spring forest instantly transformed into a cold winter.
On the outside, Aaliyah, Serdur, Albena’s trio also launched their attack from the outside towards the inside.
Gauss watched the goblins exposed outside rapidly decreasing in numbers, and turned his gaze to the goblin leader.
"Leave him to me, you go deal with the other goblins."
"Alright."
After flying to Ying’s side, Gauss spoke.
Ying didn’t try to assert herself, flashing back quickly, creating a distance between her and the goblin leader, handing this big guy over to Gauss.
She indeed couldn’t take down this opponent in a short period, as the goblin leader’s frontal combat ability was somewhat stronger than hers.
This was still because of the weakening effect from Gauss nearby.
Her task was to briefly hold this big guy when Gauss was casting spells, to prevent him from disturbing Gauss.
Now the task is complete, it’s also time for the handover.
