『 Kill all goblin inside the cave. (3/10)
Reward: 5 Attribute Points
Punishment upon failure: Fate worse than death 』
After killing the goblin, Sheila let out a breath of exhaustion and sits at the back of the wall. The goblin's corpse in front of her turns into fragments before disappearing entirely into nothingness. She had gotten used to seeing such spectacular sight in front of her, which explain her calmness. She was surprised when the first time it happened and even considers that the Trial Tower was perhaps, a virtual game that she was playing. She had once considered on getting herself killed for the sake of testing if she could revive but vote against it in the end.
She's not so stupid as to try such thing on herself, especially when it involves her life. Was she possessed back then? If not, how could she even come to consider such a horrible thing? She shook her head to remove the thought away from her mind.
”Gulp. Fuah~ Seven more to go.”
Sheila put the bottle of mineral water back into her inventory after she was done drinking it. When she entered the cave, she had come across a single goblin walking around in one place as if guarding the path ahead from intruders. After slaying it, she only needs to walk for a couple of minutes before seeing another yet single goblin. Her wariness grew stronger as she dives deeper into the cave.
It had been easy and smooth ride up until now, but she wouldn't let her guard down. In fact, she grew even more cautious as she dives deeper. This kind of pattern, she had read it in the countless novel and knew what's coming ahead of it. Every time she had finished a fight, she would take a couple of minutes or possibly longer to rest. It wouldn't be good if she were put into a dangerous situation yet unable to do anything due to exhaustion, right?
After having enough rest, Sheila gets up and slowly walk to the only path deeper in the cave. Even though it was so dark that one usually couldn't see anything, but how is she fine you ask? She only needs to lead the mana inside of her and focus into one place, which was the eyes. It sounds simple and easy, but it took her about 4 hours of trials and errors until she finally managed to acquire the Night Vision skill. She had almost given up, but because of Mana Sense skill, it helped her a lot with the effort of it. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
With the Night Vision skill, she could even see the corner of the wall inside the cave as it was bright as day. A pretty convenient skill. If not, she would need to use the torchlight which would expose her location to the goblin as an intruder. It was like a moth flying to the fire.
