Click! Crack!
As the stalemate prolonged, the iron sword's blade gradually cut into the thick wooden club.
Ultimately, the wooden club, being a wooden weapon, was at a greater disadvantage in the hands of the ogre, and was slashed apart by Adam's iron sword.
The severed end flew out, smashing onto the distant ground, splashing dust.
The ogre's ferocious face looked at the broken weapon in its hand, revealing not only a blank and bewildered expression, but also involuntarily took a step back.
With its intelligence only slightly better than that of a goblin, it simply couldn't understand why the strength of this weak human food was greater than its own.
While the ogre was stunned, looking at the wide-open chest of the ogre.
Adam's gaze flashed, not caring about the numbness in his arm at the moment, while forcefully gripping the sword hilt, making the sword tip point upward, and quickly rushed forward, colliding into the ogre's chest.
Pfft!
The iron sword's sharp tip pierced into the ogre's rotten chest, and under the impact and the upward force of the sword tip, it fiercely stabbed into the position of the left heart!
"Pain, pain, arrgh!"
The immense pain made the ogre nearly go mad, "Food, human food!"
Even suffering such a heavy blow, the ogre actually still had the strength to raise its two huge palms, grabbing towards Adam's chest.
At such a close distance, Adam almost had no chance to dodge.
But.
"Instant Reflection!" Adam's whole body emanated a layer of light blue light.
In the next instant!
Adam's body seemed to reverse time, rapidly retreating back to his attacking position under the flickering blue light.
Bang!
The ogre's hands came down, colliding together, making a muffled sound, its thick arms grasping at nothing.
As Adam used "Instant Reflection" To retreat, the iron sword was also drawn out along with it, and a large amount of blood spurted out from the ogre's wound!
In this situation.
The intense pain made the ogre let out beast-like roars and pants.
Even with its heart pierced, its robust vitality did not cause it to die immediately; instead, it staggered, continuously raising its hand to grab towards Adam's direction, but eventually fell to the ground.
Thud!
Dust flew up.
Even so.
The fallen ogre still twitched and struggled slightly.
Seeing this.
Adam did not step forward to deliver a finishing blow; he would not make the same mistake as Dori, the captain of the Rock Team.
"Food also fights back, so, you can go die now." Adam coldly watched the ogre struggling on the ground.
As the battle ended, his heart relaxed.
Hiss~
Adam took a slight breath, feeling the numbness and pain in his palm and arm, and at the same time, his whole body began to feel achy.
This was obviously the aftereffect of using "Instant Reflection."
The martial skill "Instant Reflection" Allows the body or actions to forcefully return to the pre-attack posture after an attack, which is extremely effective for dodging opponents' attacks during combat.
However, such an unnatural, forceful restoration of posture puts a certain burden on the entire body.
Glancing at the HP on the attribute panel.
The life value did not decrease.
A thoughtful look flashed in Adam's eyes.
It seems that "Instant Reflection" does not reduce life value... or perhaps it hasn't reached the level of reducing life value yet.
Buzz!
[Gained 320 experience!]
Information appeared on the attribute panel.
"It's dead."
Adam saw the information appearing again on the attribute panel and withdrew his gaze from the ogre's corpse.
'Experience: 1271/1500'
Dealing with a small goblin tribe and adding an ogre increased the experience by a large margin.
Adam rested for a moment, shaking his arm which was now feeling less numb, and walked towards the ogre and other goblin corpses, cutting off their ears.
At the same time, he began to search the entire small tribe.
As a player, how could he forget to search for loot.
Unfortunately.
After searching around, Adam found nothing of value in the entire small goblin tribe except for a lot of bones and leftover rotten meat everywhere.
Adam wasn't too disappointed; he hadn't expected to find anything precious anyway.
Walking to the two remaining human corpses,
Adam fell silent for a moment, then sighed, turned around, and left.
He didn't dig a pit to bury these corpses because it was completely meaningless.
Not only would it waste physical strength for nothing, but in the forest environment, even if the corpses were buried in the soil, they would be dug out by wild beasts smelling the scent.
Unless the corpses were burned to ashes with fire.
But lighting a fire in this dim forest would attract too much attention and bring a lot of risk to Adam himself.
After all!
In this area, the real danger is not goblins and ogres, but the ogre tribes, who are the true rulers dominating this area.
Night gradually fell.
Even during the day, the jungle, with its towering trees blocking most of the sunlight, could only see specks of moonlight through the gaps in the branches.
The entire forest became pitch black, and the roars of some wild beasts became clearer.
In such an environment where human vision is extremely poor.
Without mastering "Night Vision" Skills or other means of moving at night, Adam naturally would not make any rash moves.
He chose a relatively thick large tree.
Adam climbed onto the sturdy tree trunk, took out the sturdy black robe he had previously purchased from the item box, wrapped his whole body, and leaned against the tree to rest.
To be honest, it was a bit uncomfortable.
The tree branches were hard and prickly, and the forest was filled with the sounds of insects and the howls of wild beasts from time to time, keeping one's mind constantly tense.
"Still, it's better than nothing."
Adam, wrapped in his black robe, looked up through the branches at the stars in the night sky and the bright moonlight.
In the outer periphery of the eastern region of the Great Forest of Tob, the troublesome creatures are just goblins and ogres. After fighting the ogre, Adam had a basic understanding of the ogres' combat methods and strength.
For him, they are indeed troublesome, but absolutely not threatening.
So at this moment, although his mind is a bit tense, he is not particularly nervous.
Instead, he calmly admires the moon of this different world.
"Compared to my past life of being a workhorse, this life of wielding power, though dangerous, gives me a sense of solidity."
"At least I know what to do every day and what I will face in the future."
Such a thought crossed Adam's mind.
But when he thought of the Nazarick that was about to descend in the future, the good mood that had just risen in Adam's heart immediately dissipated.
