Taking the Mafia to the Magic Worldchapter 271: goblin camp

Hours later...

Vicente stood at the cave entrance where the goblins he had been hunting had just entered.

It was already night in this part of the Seidel Kingdom, and he could see a strange glow coming from inside the cave, indicating that there was more to it than just a cave.

Stopping at a tree near the entrance to the cave, Vicente scanned the area, activating his second ability to see the electromagnetic field lines in the area.

Noticing a powerful field there, Vicente understood there were a large number of goblins or some powerful goblins near him.

'I estimate that the total power of these goblins does not exceed the 2nd stage.' His eyes narrowed as he finished using his ability, and he returned to see things the normal way.

It wouldn't do for Vicente to try to infiltrate the goblin camp inside that cave. He could not communicate with such magical creatures, and trying to eavesdrop on them wouldn't do him any good.

Then he cautiously approached the entrance to the tunnel, aware that there was no way to get in without attracting the enemy's attention, except by using the sneaky methods he had developed on Earth.

Walking on tiptoe, careful not to disturb his surroundings, Vicente appeared at the cave entrance.

The entrance to the cave was L-shaped, so as soon as he entered, he encountered a front wall and a bend to the right.

He stopped by one of the walls of the cave entrance, looked inside, and saw a chamber that was better lit than the dark outside of the cave. There were several green creatures in the chamber that seemed to have been dug by themselves.

'One... Six... Twelve...' Vicente quickly counted the enemies and came up with 29 goblins. Of them, 20 were Apprentices, and the rest were between levels 1 and 5.

But in addition to them, Vicente realized there were more living creatures in the cave because of the screams and human voices he heard when he stopped to observe them momentarily.

'Hostages?' Vicente wondered, imagining this must be the case.

Having seen the worst, he stopped cautiously and cast a spell based on the earth element.

Closing the only exit from the cave, Vicente walked towards the area where the goblins had already sensed the arrival of their enemies and were on the move.

Listening to the strange drumming of these creatures, something incomprehensible to the average human ear, Vicente saw the strongest goblins running towards him, spears in hand, preparing to attack.

As he walked with his mask on his face, his two pentagrams appeared simultaneously in his surroundings, making the creatures attacking him from the sides, below and above, find infinity between them and him.

After seeing a diabolical scene, the weaker goblins didn't hesitate to enter the hostages' cells and point their daggers at the necks of the women and children inside them.

There were a dozen humans, two children, and nine women, most of them young, but there were two older women in the group.

Some had purple marks all over their bodies, torn clothes, and depressed looks on their faces.

The only two men there, white-haired elders, had hateful glances at these creatures, not fearing death.

"Please, sir, please, kill them!" One of the two bruised and weakened men shouted at Vicente. "These wretches tortured us and even raped some of these poor women! Please kill them!"

"I beg you! Kill them!"

Hearing these human voices, the Apprentice goblins, with their weapons already pointed at their vital points, made even uglier expressions, imagining these humans were talking nonsense.

One of them picked up the blade and moved it diagonally, slicing at the neck of the old man who had uttered the most incomprehensible words.

"Oh? You think you can act as you please in my presence, you filthy creature?" Vicente raised one of his arms and gestured as if to pick something up.

His first pentagram glowed brighter as he did so, and those lower-level goblins who tried to act against their hostages were suddenly paralyzed.

Feeling something change within them, all of the Apprentice goblins suddenly opened their eyes wide as they opened their mouths to scream in pain.

However, facing Vicente, the 1st stage creatures had no chance of survival!

Suddenly, 15 bodies exploded, sending bright red blood spurting in all directions, staining the walls of the cave and covering the bodies of the people inside the cells.

The children were unconscious then and didn't see what had happened. But the men and women there opened their eyes in amazement, not expecting their terrible enemies to be killed so easily.

Almost all of them were Apprentices, with only one of the women and the two old men being level 1 Acolytes. For them, the group of goblins was very strong and difficult to deal with.

But Vicente had killed them without even touching them, tearing them to pieces in front of everyone.

The strongest goblins attacking Vicente made terrible sounds when they saw what had just happened, but under their opponent's electromagnetic control, they were all thrown in different directions with no chance of escape.

"I don't need you alive, goblins. Whatever your plans or stories, it all ends here." He said as he sent several metallic objects around his body, flying toward the enemies, mercilessly slashing at the creatures.

As the bloodied bodies of the goblins, with parts of themselves cut off, heads decapitated, trunks split into two or three pieces, slowly fell to the ground, the bloodied humans looked at Vicente while feeling as if time had stopped.

Gulp!

'Who is this one?' One of the older women there, a level 1 Acolyte, swallowed her saliva as she saw the most powerful being she had ever seen.

The moment Vicente used his ability to destroy the cell they were all in, making the chains holding them disappear, half of the group immediately knelt before him.

"Savior!"

"Savior!"

They said similar things, thanking him while feeling different emotions in their hearts, the good feeling of seeing their enemies die, being free again, and standing in front of the powerful being who had freed them, who they didn't know and who was unpredictable.

Vicente ignored them and immediately focused on the spatial rings, magical artifacts, and many other items scattered around that stinking cave.

'That wasn't what I expected, but it's very good!' He was pleased to get the first victory of his journey through The Rocky Gorge, a good start for him.

But seeing some books, especially maps, Vicente would soon put aside the other things and magical artifacts around to find something related to the basilisk nest.
