Chapter 61 Hit-and-Run Strategy (1/2)
Now, what should she do? Attack? But she couldn't handle them all by herself; It would just be a suicide. Hit and run? That might work, but she was worried that the Goblin King that was sitting on the throne might be able to know her presence which would wreck the plan.
Sheila was pondering while watching them from afar within the shadow. If the Goblin King didn't make a move, she might able to wipe out the other, but it would take a lot of time. The four Goblin Fighters stood to close to the Goblin King; she couldn't take them out without notifying the latter of her presence. Should I risk it? If I won against them, how many experiences would I get? What would the drop item from Goblin King be? The saying about good things is always risky doesn't seem like an untrue, after all.
”I'll just give it a go.”
She could exit from the Trial Tower anytime given that she has acquired access from the previous quest reward. It was not possible to exit the Trial Tower unless she clears out her surrounding up until now, but after getting the reward, she could exit it even amid the battle with the boss. Oh, before that, let me check if there's any new quest. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
There is only one quest available which is Kill the Goblin King. The reward is ten attribute point and one skill book, but it didn't explain what skill book it would be. But even so, the reward is very tempting; she couldn't lie. She would not just get experiences and the drop item; she would also get ten AP with one skill book from the quest reward. The reward really outweighs the cons.
Without any word, Sheila used her invisible mouse in her mind and clicked on accept the quest. With that done, Sheila charges ahead but still within the shadow. When she was close to the group of goblins, she immediately conjures fireball and fires out at them before pulling back. Thankfully, it seems that the Goblin King didn't notice her presence since she was not so close to it.

One-shot four killed. The other goblins and Goblin Shaman were in disarray as they didn't expect to get attacked suddenly. The Goblin Shaman tried to search for her presence in the area using magic, but Sheila has already gone out of range. Once she saw them quieted down, she didn't make a move yet but wait a few minutes more before attacking again with the fireball spell at the other spot where the goblins grouped up. Yes, her plan was hit and run. It's a lot nicer now that she has shadow magic which would help her escape even better. Her fireball swallowed the three goblins, and soon she heard a notification that she loves the most, level up.
Finally, three more and she will get into twenty. Isn't this a good grinding spot for level up? She could power leveling Ria on this floor, but Ria had to clear the First Floor beforehand. It won't be long before Ria met the Slime King.
After another yet success attack, Sheila thought that the Goblin Shaman would finally be wary of their surrounding, but she guesses wrong as they simply went back to their place when they couldn't find her with their magic. Are they this lax because of the goblin sitting on the throne? Possible, but she wonders what they will do once the goblins are all cleared out.
”It's much easier for me that they are lax. Sorry, goblins. It seems that your life is not important to them.”
”But you don't need to be that sad as I will appreciate you as an experience for me.”
Sheila muttered to herself as she smirked. Her eyes now glimmer of greed as she stares at the group of goblins in her sight. It's possible for her to level up again if she manages to clear this floor. The mob goblins have become warier of their surrounding after the second attacked from her, but obviously, they couldn't do anything since she was hidden in the shadow. This is why assassin is scarier than a warrior who fights head-on. You can see and plan it out when your opponent is a warrior, but if it's an assassin, you have to be worried that you won't get suddenly attacked from behind while in the midst of planning.
Sheila could act as an assassin with her AWP sword, but she prefers firing a fireball spell instead since it's AOE(Area of Effect) rather than a single target. It will take a lot more time if she does that, after all. Magic is great!
