Dungeon King: A Lady Knight Offered by My Goblins

Chapter 3 3- Caravan Annihilated, Lady Knight Captured!

?While Lady Knight was lost in her thoughts, she didn't notice that Holy Light Goblins had quietly approached the caravan.

As goblins with night vision, the night was undoubtedly their home field!

The Holy Light goblins silently squatted in the bushes, watching the merchants eat, clean, and frolic.

They were waiting for an opportunity, a chance to strike a decisive blow!

As time approached the middle of the night, the earlier frenzy disappeared.

Discarded bottles and food cans on the ground signified they had a very good time.

Although Lady Knight wanted to stop them, she didn't sense Dark Lord's presence.

After a few unsuccessful attempts to dissuade them, she no longer restrained them.

After all, with her present, she could easily deal with some low-level monsters!

Many in the caravan, under the influence of alcohol, didn't even need their sleeping bags.

They lay on the ground and tree branches, drifting off into a deep sleep.

Only Lady Knight and a few guards were still holding on.

Usually, there would be two shifts of guards, but today, due to too much merriment, only one guard team was still on duty.

This was when the caravan's defense was the weakest.

Lady Knight was sitting by the fire with her eyes closed, seemingly unaware of what was going on.

Seeing this, the goblin troop left a single goblin to watch Lady Knight, ready to retreat at the first sign of trouble.

A D-rank Hero was not something that could be overcome with sheer numbers, especially when the Hero possessed a D-rank weapon.

A direct confrontation was certainly not an option.

The remaining goblins, relying on their small stature, moved amongst the caravan.

Each carried a dagger, sending the members of the caravan in sleeping bags and on the ground to the afterlife.

Lady Knight was oblivious to all this.

After a day's journey, even the Hero was extremely fatigued!

This was also her first quest since she arrived in this world.

She lacked practical experience and had no idea about the cunning and deceitfulness of monsters.

Lady Knight did not immediately notice the goblin's intrusion.

As the goblins struck one after another, the number of living people in the caravan gradually dwindled.

"Ah! Help!"

A scream echoed in the dark night.

Lady Knight immediately grabbed her Greatsword, her gaze piercing, staring in the direction the sound came from.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!" Lady Knight said quietly.

But contrary to her expectation, the surroundings were silent.

Her heart sank.

A monster that could assassinate the members of the caravan silently was definitely not an ordinary one!

Opening the system panel, the sparse red dots on the map confirmed Lady Knight's thoughts.

These guys were followers of some Dark Lord!

Lady Knight tightly gripped the Greatsword in her hand, cold sweat seeping from her palm, and the pungent smell of blood around her stimulated her weary nerves.

She couldn't believe she was facing imminent danger.

"Don't be afraid, Mia! Don't be afraid, you're a D-rank hero! These followers, no matter how strong they are, are just F-rank monsters. As usual, you can easily slay them!"

Lady Knight Mia murmured to herself, boosting her spirit.

The goblin troop vigilantly watched Lady Knight.

As D-rank monsters, even with the blessings of Dark Lord's blood, fighting a D-rank Hero was difficult!

But to plunder the resources of the caravan, they had to defeat her.

After spending so much time assassinating everyone in the caravan, the goblins were not willing to give up at the last step.

"Oh, oh (What should we do?)"

"Um, um, ma (Kill!)"

"Oh (Okay!)"

A combative spirit flashed in the goblins' eyes.

They refused to believe that a D-rank hero was truly that strong!

As a few goblins appeared in front of Lady Knight, the battle was about to start.

Mia breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out to be just a few goblins.

They were just the lowest F-rank monsters.

Mia knew that a D-rank knight had once set a record of slaying 500 goblins in a day.

Now, as a D-rank knight herself, even though she was unfamiliar with the Greatsword, she could easily kill these goblins in front of her.

Dark Lord's follower, so what?

Mia showed a scornful smile.

Even if the Goblin Dark Lord himself stood in front of her, she was confident of matching him evenly!

The goblins, seeing the smile on Lady Knight's face, were even more furious.

They knew they were at the bottom of the monster hierarchy, but now, they had to make a name for themselves.

They were definitely not the weakest monsters!

The goblins exchanged glances.

One goblin, carrying a wooden shield obtained from the caravan, charged first, while the others with short swords flanked.

Mia, wielding her Greatsword, swung it around, immediately sending the goblin with the shield flying.

When the goblin stabilized his figure, his wooden shield was already battered, and his wrist was cracking.

Seeing this, Mia's confidence doubled.

She couldn't help but want to slap her former self.

Was she so scared of just a few goblins? Such a coward!

"Oh, oh (Dodge carefully, don't get hit.)" The goblin with the shield murmured.

All the goblins watched Lady Knight with trepidation.

One goblin holding a bow and arrow, looking at Lady Knight and the Greatsword that was almost half her height, suddenly had an idea!

"Ah, ah (Exhaust her stamina!)"

Then he shot an arrow at Lady Knight.

As it was his first time handling a bow, his aim was off.

He could only make Lady Knight dodge in a fluster, not causing any substantial harm.

The remaining goblins also made probing attempts, pretending to stab Lady Knight.

After several rounds of probing, Mia's breath became disordered.

This Greatsword was really unfriendly to her!

Even though she had removed most of her armor, leaving only a few pieces, her stamina was still running low.

No, she needed to fight quickly!

With that thought, Mia picked up her Greatsword and charged at the nearest goblin.

Direct hit!

Mia was overjoyed.

As expected, these low-rank monsters were not fast enough to react to her surprise attack!

The remaining goblins, seeing their comrade injured, hurriedly moved to cover him, forcing Mia back towards the campfire.

The injured goblin's green blood spurted out like a fountain, obviously, a vital vessel had been hit.

"Oh oh (Power of the Holy Light!)" a voice said, and a beam of Holy Light descended from the sky, illuminating the goblin.

The dazzling white light made Mia close her eyes.

After a moment, the light disappeared.

The goblin, who was previously on the brink of death, seemed full of life again.

There wasn't a single trace of the attack on his chest.

Mia was dumbfounded.

What just happened?

Why could a monster receive healing from the Holy Light!

This was clearly a skill of the priests, how could it appear here?

Experiencing this mental shock, combined with fatigue and physical exhaustion, the Greatsword fell to the ground with a clatter.

Mia's forearms were shaking uncontrollably, clearly reaching their limit.

Seeing the goblins closing in, she felt despair rising in her heart.

If she was taken by them, she would definitely become a tool for the monsters' reproduction.

That was absolutely unacceptable!

Determination flashed in Mia's eyes.

She pulled out the dagger hidden on her inner thigh and pointed it at her snow-white neck.

However, a goblin behind her unexpectedly hit her with a cudgel, knocking her out.

"Oh oh oh (This female is beautiful, the master will surely like her. No one should touch her, we need to keep her alive!)"

With the last obstacle out of the way, the goblin troops quickly emptied the caravan, and left the place before dawn.

When they returned to Ethan, it was already past 9 a.m. in the morning.

Ethan was sitting on his throne when a system notification sound abruptly assaulted him.

[Congratulations, host received human food: 50 servings]

[Congratulations, host received F weapons: 3]

[Congratulations, host received D weapon: 1]

[Congratulations, host received D hero captive: 1]

Ethan slowly opened his eyes and looked with interest at the Lady Knight who was constantly struggling on the goblin's shoulder.

Because she was carried on the goblin's shoulder, Mia's view under her soft leather skirt was completely exposed to Ethan.

"A D-rank hero? This weak?"

Upon hearing Ethan's words, Mia struggled even harder as if she was insulted.

"Put her down," Ethan said indifferently.

The goblin simply dropped Mia to the ground.

Mia glared angrily at the goblin, as if asking why he didn't treat her with more gentleness.

Ethan stepped forward and looked at the dusty Mia, and pulled the gag out of her mouth.

"Hmph! Damned Dark Lord! If you have the guts, let me fight you one on one! I don't believe that you can beat me!"

Mia glared with her watery eyes, her cherry-like lips pouted, her face full of defiance.

Ethan couldn't help laughing.

·??m He said, "You can't even beat a goblin, and you want to challenge me?"

Mia seemed to be struck by something, her pretty face blushed and retorted,

"That's because I was too tired, otherwise, with these goblins, I can take one down with each swing of my sword!"
