They still felt lingering fear when they thought about the Goblin King's unstoppable destructive power.
That was an enemy they could not defeat.
"Is that something a level 60 player can fight?" one of the brave warriors asked bluntly.
If you can't beat it at level 60, try at level 70; if you can't beat it at level 70, try at level 80.
Before we defeat the Goblin King, we need to kill more Goblin Centurions and Goblin Champions.
Leveling up is the most important thing.
The ultimate goal is not just to defeat the Goblin King's servant, but...
"Kill them one by one." An Yi said calmly.
The heroes' faces were solemn.
That's easy for you to say!
That's a level seven demon!
“说得好8！来一个杀5一个！7”雷6顿笑着举6起拳3头，“讨伐4魔族就应该迎4难直2上！
We will get stronger! We will become even stronger! But the Goblin King's Servant won't level up!
One day we will trample them over! We will tread upon their bones to reach the deeper realms of evil!
"Mere goblins! They can't stop us!!"
After all the heroes had left, Lycorina suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Anyi, where is Miss Aisha? Why don't we ask her to come and help us?" Lycorina asked, puzzled.
In terms of strength, the [Hero of Slaughter] can enhance the team's combat power and make it easier to defeat the Goblin King's servant.
“If we bring her with us, who will deal with the champion-level goblins that appear in the city?” Annie said.
"Ah!" Lycorina finally realized, "Alright, then Miss Aisha will have to stay here..."
This time the situation is different from last time; Miluko, the most agile person in town, will also be on the expedition.
Whenever something goes wrong in the city, Elsa is the one who has to step in and cover for the family.
Of course, she couldn't run to Silvermoon Fortress to ask Hilo's team for help, but with her strength that was equal in all attributes and level, let alone the Goblin Champion, even the Goblin King's servant would have to suffer at her hands.
Back in the heroes' dormitory, they ran into an acquaintance downstairs.
Eddie was wrapped in a bathrobe, a towel covering his head, and his face was flushed from just having showered. *Whoosh*
Upon seeing An Yi and her three companions, she stopped climbing the stairs and nodded slightly to them.
Lycorina walked up to her happily: "Miss Eddie, it's been several days since we last saw each other. How are you? How are you feeling?"
"Hmm, I think I've adjusted." Eddie glanced at his bathrobe.
Back when I was a hero, I never sweated, and I could go for long periods without showering without odor.
But now that I've regained my normal human body, I have to shower every day.
Furthermore, unlike heroes who can go a long time without eating after a single meal, they must ensure three meals a day.
It's like going back to the old ways, but it still takes some getting used to. 9
What's most frustrating is actually the change in attributes.
She no longer has any attribute bonuses. For example, she used to be able to easily pick up a log, but now even picking up a relatively large piece of firewood takes some effort. 7
Agility, stamina, and resilience are all reduced.
Many places that used to be easily accessible now take half a day to reach.
The reduced resilience also increased her chances of getting abrasions.
For example, in the past, when she picked up a piece of wood, she didn't have to worry about being scratched or pricked by it.
But now that she's lost her resilience, she's got a lot of new wounds on her hands these past two days.
I didn't have any concerns about this before becoming a hero.
Because she often does heavy and rough work, her hands are very rough, and even small splinters cannot scratch her skin.
After becoming a hero, her hands were completely repaired. They were no longer rough; in fact, they could be described as delicate, like a baby's skin.
This has resulted in her having many small cuts and scratches on her hands whenever she does even a little bit of physical labor.
"Where's the new generation of Axe Warrior? Isn't he with you?" Lycorina asked casually.
"No matter what, it's impossible for us to shower together." Eddie gave a faint smile.
"Oh right!" Lycorina slapped her forehead. "Ah... we've known each other for a few days now, what do you think of that new Axe Hero?"
“He probably has more potential than me,” Eddie said. “He trains very hard, is happy to help the residents, and unlike me, he’s not obsessed with goblins.”
During this time, a new Axe Hero appeared, and the Hero Alliance brought the new Axe Hero to the city to meet Eddie.
The idea of a previous hero being resurrected to teach the next generation of heroes is something that believers, and even other heroes, would never dare to dream of.
Because only after the death of the previous hero can the next hero be born.
The previous generation's hero cannot crawl back from hell to teach the next generation's hero.
But Eddie crawled back from hell.
“Actually, I don’t have anything to teach him.” Eddie subconsciously looked at his bandaged hand. “He also uses an axe, but it’s different from the axe I use.”
I have no intention of training him as an apprentice or anything like that; he should find the weapon that suits him on his own.
So, I'll have him leave after a while; there should be demons in his hometown that he needs to fight.
"And what about you?" Lycorina asked.
“I will continue to help out here. After the town is rebuilt, I will go back to my hometown,” Eddie said.
"Isn't that unnecessary?" An Yi suddenly spoke up.
Lycorina and Eddie both turned to look at him.
“Isn’t going back to our hometown a good thing?” Lycorina asked.
“But your family isn’t there anymore, and there aren’t any goblins for you to hunt down,” Annie said to Eddie.
Eddie thought for a moment and nodded: "Well, but I don't know where else to go besides there."
“Ah…” Lycorina seemed to realize something, her expression stiffening. “Didn’t any believers tell you… about the Eternal City?”
“No.” Eddie shook his head.
An Yi: "Shall we hold a meeting to discuss how to deal with the heroes who have been resurrected from the dead?"
Layton: "The only hero who can come back from the dead is Miss Eddie, right?!"
"I don't like having believers ask this and that every day; I want them to do something more meaningful."
"The message didn't reach me, probably because they didn't contact me," Eddie said.
"Alright... Eternal City is where the heroes' families live. I think you should be able to live there too," Lycorina said.
"Really? I'll think about it," Eddie said thoughtfully.
“I thought you would refuse,” Annie said.
"But you're right, even if I go back to where I used to live, I won't have any family there anymore."
Besides, I don't have any jobs I can do. I might become a hunter or something to make a living.
"But living in the places arranged by the believers, at least we don't go hungry," Eddie explained.
“Miss Eddie, what a surprising reality…” Layton smiled.
“What about the goblins?” Annie asked.
"I no longer need to kill them."
"There are plenty of people everywhere who can kill more goblins than I can," Eddie said calmly.
“Really? I thought you wouldn’t stop,” Annie said.
"I don't want to stop either," Eddie said, her brows furrowing slightly. "But things are different now."
If I continue to appear in places inhabited by demons, it will only cause trouble for you, won't it?
"Rather than personally killing goblins, asking the nearest Hero Alliance for help is the top priority."
Yes, what she needs to consider now is not how many goblins she can kill with her own hands.
Instead, when the goblins appear, leave the scene as quickly as possible to find the hero for help.
Because her presence would only be a hindrance to the heroes.
Imagine the hero's party could have easily wiped out hundreds or thousands of goblins.
But Eddie insists on going with them, saying he can kill goblins too. What will happen then?
As a result, she fought the goblins with all her might, becoming so exhausted that she could barely breathe, and probably only managed to kill a few goblins.
The heroes also had to keep an eye on her, protect her, and fight the goblins at the same time.
What's the point of her killing those extra three or five goblins?
She wasn't there; the heroes would have already killed them all.
Before there were any heroes, she had to stand up and protect others.
But now there are heroes, and she just causes trouble on the battlefield. Her speed, strength, and physical abilities can't keep up.
She wanted to exterminate goblins and kill demons, that's for sure.
But it would be problematic if it caused unnecessary trouble for the heroes.
Lycorina looked at Eddie with a touch of melancholy, but she couldn't refute her.
Saying something like "Don't give up on your dreams!" at this point would be just stupid.
Rather, it's more commendable that Eddie was able to let go of his obsessions depending on the situation.
Otherwise, we'd see a stupid woman with no hero's power getting in the way of the heroes.
"However, if the hero can't catch up, or if someone will die if I don't intervene, I will still take action."
