...
The significance of the outpost was fully demonstrated in this encounter.
Matthew had never thought of fighting against the three major evil organizations on his own, so after the failed assassination, his tactics imdiately shifted to focus on delay and probing.
And Ella did not disappoint.
Amidst the sound of hooves, a total of eight knights arrived smoothly in front of Matthew to provide support.
Leading them was the fully ard Blade and the casually dressed Zeller, while the remaining six knights were also ard to the teeth. Matthew knew that they were not mbers of the guard unit, but rather part of the lord's guard.
"The lord already knows, he ordered
to co first, and the reinforcents are already on their way."
Zeller dismounted and stood shoulder to shoulder with Matthew.
The knights slowly advanced, holding their long spears.
Under the cover of night.
The nearly three-ter-long spear gave off a great sense of oppression.
This was a genuine military weapon!
Even the arrogant Edson no longer dared to be reckless. He did not continue to chase, but hastily retreated towards the entrance of the mine.
Blade and the others were about to pursue.
Matthew quickly reminded, "Be careful, those wooden boxes are suspicious!"
The knights quickly tightened their reins upon hearing this.
Moonlight spilled onto the barren land ahead.
Near the scattered goblin corpses, there were dozens of wooden boxes, so of which had already been knocked open and appeared empty.
However, Matthew's nerves were jumping intensely.
"Be careful!"
"Is there any revealing powder for the Molting Gel?"
He saw the information prompt.
He knew that the monsters in the wooden boxes had stealthily approached under the cover of night and their unique forms.
Without hesitation, Zeller smashed a glass bottle towards the empty space ahead. With a loud bang, the bottle shattered, and a faint purple smoke spread out. Wherever the smoke went, so Molting Gel that was originally difficult to discern with the naked eye was instantly dyed with a thick layer of purple!
This was revealing powder, a powerful tool for low-level adventurers to deal with stealth units. The downside was that it was expensive, and soone like Matthew couldn't afford it.
The fastest Molting Gel had already approached the group.
The horse at the front suddenly reared up in fright and let out a long neigh.
The knight barely maintained his balance and pulled the reins to the side.
Blade acted quickly and thrust his spear forward.
The iron spear easily pierced through the gelatinous body of the Molting Gel, but it was only pinned to the ground and unable to move, seemingly not dead.
"We can't kill them like this, we need fire or lightning, or simply dry up the moisture in their bodies."
As a mage, Matthew's basic skills were passable. The Molting Gel was a type of mud golem monster, with a transparent or semi-transparent jelly-like form.
They didn't move fast, but they were extrely easy to overlook.
Once a living creature accidentally touched the Molting Gel, it would rapidly expand and quickly wrap and devour the living creature, causing the person wrapped in the Molting Gel to endure imnse pain for 72 hours. They couldn't escape or struggle, only able to witness the arrival of death.
Their flesh, organs, and even bones would be easily digested by the Molting Gel, leaving behind only a few strands of hair and a complete piece of skin.
After digesting everything, the Molting Gel would spit out the skin and hair, leaving them behind and setting off to find the next prey.
It was precisely because of this characteristic that so evil spellcasters or organizations would raise Molting Gel, using them to skin others. Of course, there were also many examples in history of those who accidentally swallowed themselves while raising Molting Gel.
This thing was far from being as clumsy and harmless as it appeared.
After receiving Matthew's reminder, everyone began to clean up the nearby Molting Gel.
Zeller also carefully counted the number of wooden boxes to prevent any Molting Gel from getting lost and causing harm to the residents nearby.
anwhile, Matthew took the opportunity to use the Necromancy Summoning spell on the pile of goblin corpses!
...
"Prompt: The Necromancy Summoning spell was successfully cast, and you have obtained 30 Silver Moon Goblin Zombies (average level LV6).
You have obtained 3 Goblin Skeleton Soldiers (average level LV4)."
...
After the round of summoning, Matthew had used up most of his mana.
The goblins who were just charging towards the side of the Cataclysmic Cult instantly turned into undead and turned against them.
Except for three of them whose bodies were too damaged by Eli and could only summon skeletons, the remaining goblins were all transford into Silver Moon Zombies.
Compared to the Silver Moon Zombies transford from humans, they were smaller in size and lower in level, but they also inherited characteristics such as "Barkskin
