When Ethan and Evelyn took down more than a quarter of the goblins in the blink of an eye, chaos reigned among the creatures.
One of them, wielding a clearly handmade wooden spear, tried to attack Ethan from behind, but the sharp tip struck nothing but the steel plate protecting his vital organs.
Twisting his body, he slashed. The blade missed the creature's neck but still found its hand.
A scream filled with despair echoed, and the goblin fell to the ground, rivers of blood gushing from the stump.
Ethan plunged his sword into the creature's heart and moved on to the next one. He didn't even need to use Burning Blood for that.
Evelyn was also relaxed.
For a second-stage warrior, only hobgoblins would be a problem, and fortunately, only the goblin camp leaders, perhaps two or three, were at that level.
In the end, it took the two of them less than two minutes to finish off all twenty.
With that, Ethan's XP bar rose to 89%.
