Chapter 228: Chapter 228: We Have A Contract
Translator: 549690339
Song Jian carefully read the content of the temporary task, and when he saw the failure penalty, he couldnât help but look up at the Goblin merchant Canaan. This little green-skinned dwarf was quite ruthless!
Accept!
Song Jian chose to accept the temporary task, and Canaan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, revealing a smile on his face, but a cunning look flashed in his eyes.
Broken Wing Dance!
Song Jian held his long sword and rushed towards the five mutated zombies. With a 35% increased attack speed, the first segment of the Broken Wing Danceâs sprint was almost like teleportation. In the blink of an eye, the long sword had already struck a mutated zombieâs body.
Before it could react, the second segment of the attack had landed on it.
Roar-
The mutated zombie roared angrily, turning around and extending its withered arm towards Song Jian. Its two palms had nails that shimmered with a metallic cold light, and there was a faint green trace on them.
Before it could make a move, the third segment of the Broken Wing Danceâs attack arrived; Song Jian leapt high, and his long sword struck downwards.
With a âboomâ, the long sword cleaved the head of the mutated zombie, killing it instantly. A wave of air erupted from Song Jianâs long sword, spreading in all directions. Any monster touched by it lost control of their body, and the remaining four mutated zombies were sent floating by the air wave, with eighty-some damage numbers popping over their heads.
Sword Finger!
Before they could land, a silver sword light burst forth, sweeping across the bodies of the four mutated zombies, leaving deep sword marks on them.
System: Combat Combo +1, targetâs damage received increased by 110%.
Seeing this system prompt, Song Jian was stunned. Combat combo? What the hell is that?!
As Song Jian was momentarily distracted, the four mutated zombies fell heavily to the ground, with over a hundred damage numbers popping over their heads.
Swipe, swipe, swipe â
Before they could get up from the ground, Song Jianâs long sword struck their bodies. Even with a normal attack, once Invisible Sword Qi was attached, it could cause considerable damage to these level ten ordinary monsters.
Swipe-
The cooldown of Sword Finger was extremely short, only five seconds. By the time the four mutated zombies got up, the five seconds had passed. A silver sword light burst forth, sweeping across the bodies of the four mutated zombies.
When it swept across the waist of the fourth mutated zombie, there was a âcrackâ sound, and it was directly cut in half at the waist. Its foul-smelling intestines spilled onto the ground.
This half-mutated zombie didnât die after being cut at the waist, and it let out a low growl as it crawled towards Song Jian with both hands.
The smell of the mutated zombieâs guts was unbearable, so Song Jian covered his nose and retreated a few steps. He stomped his right foot hard, and suddenly a sharp, tooth-like energy condensed at his foot, emitting a piercing sound as it flew towards the nearest mutated zombie.
There was no requirement for the âEarth Teeth Assaultâ skill to be triggered by hand, as it could be used with any part of the body. Even if Song Jian sat on the ground with his butt, as long as he thought about it, he could trigger the skill.
Song Jian realized that every time he bent down to trigger the âEarth Teeth Assaultâ skill with his hand, it would be about one second slower. Triggering it with his foot was much faster.
Bang-
The mutated zombie closest to Song Jian was hit by this attack, its Vitality Points were emptied, its legs broke with a snap, and it lay weakly on the ground, turning into a lump of black ash.
Only two half-zombies remained, both with low vitality. Song Jian wielded his sword and quickly harvested their Vitality Points.
System: You have completed the temporary rescue mission issued by the Goblin merchant Canaan: Kill the mutated zombies surrounding him!
System: Your intimacy with the Goblin merchant Canaan has greatly increased!
System: You have the right to choose any item from the Goblin merchant Canaanâs merchant package!
âHahaha, thank you, my friend, respected blessed one! It was you who saved me from these monsters. 1 praise you, and our friendship shall be like a surging river, endless, and also likeâ¦â The Goblin merchant Canaan opened his tooth-marked arms, walked towards Song Jian as if trying to embrace him, but with Canaanâs height, he could probably only embrace Song Jianâs thigh!
âWhereâs my reward?â Song Jian interrupted him, asking directly.
The Goblin merchant paused, looking at Song Jianâs cold face, as if he wasnât interested in his embrace. Canaanâs outstretched arms seemed awkward and didnât know where to put them.
Sheepishly lowering his arms, he placed the large package behind him in front of Song Jian. The Goblin merchant Canaan generously said, âMy friend, you saved my life. The Goblin Clan always keeps its promises and wonât betray its friends. You can pick anything from my merchant package, take any item you like, and choose any two⦠No, you can pick one item as my thanks to you!â
Song Jian nodded to the Goblin merchant Canaan with satisfaction, squatted down, and began to pick items from Canaanâs merchant package.
In no time, Song Jian raised his head with a gloomy face, and asked indifferently, âThis is what you intended to sell? Youâve come all this way to this monster-infested city just to sell this garbage?â
Hearing Song Jian call the items in his package garbage, the Goblin merchantâs face darkened, and he angrily shouted, âGarbage? You dare to say that the great Goblin merchant Canaanâs items are garbage? Oh my god, Goblin god, this is the most vicious personal attack on me, Canaan!â
âI am a great Goblin merchant, and the items I sell are valuable treasures. My reputation is known throughout the entire continent⦠uh, along the entire west coast, and many people are proud to be able to buy my merchandise!â
âI want you to apologize, friend. These items may not seem useful, but they actually are⦠uh, cough, cough, just pick one, we have a contract, after all!â
In the end, it seemed that even the Goblin merchant Canaan was a little embarrassed. His initially angry expression gradually became unnatural under Song Jianâs emotionless gaze. In the end, he just looked up at the sky with a stubborn, pig-headed gaze.
Of course, Song Jian would not believe that this Goblin merchant only sold garbage. He must have good things hidden somewhere on him!
There were quite a few items in his package, dozens of them, but their quality was disastrously low. Most of them were actually gray-quality items, with only a handful of white-glowing items.
Song Jian did not carefully check the attributes of these items. Just looking at the light they emitted, he felt his heart turn cold.
Seeing the Goblin merchantâs expression that seemed to say âwe have a contract, and we must abide by it,â Song Jian was momentarily lost for words!
âYouâre a tough one!â After gritting his teeth, Song Jian started to carefully check the items in the Goblin merchantâs package.
