Chapter 14: Camia's Shock, Leveling Up Twice! Camia's eyes widened in disbelief.

She felt a surge of Fighting Spirit flow through her arm and spread throughout her body.

Initially, she thought it was a goblin's trick, but upon closer inspection, she realized there was no problem.

It was the purest Fighting Spirit!

Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawread dot com ].

What was going on?

Camia was momentarily stunned, feeling her strength grow stronger and stronger.

Looking at Chen Yao, he was also frantically absorbing Camia's Fighting Spirit.

Having already reached level 10, his dantian was instantly filled!

He directly broke through to level 11, and then again to level 12.

Moreover, two Light Orbs entered his body, likely two Assassin Skills.

"Holy crap!"

"Being high level really is different, gaining such great benefits!"

Chen Yao was overjoyed, tightly gripping Camia's wrist, continuously absorbing.

Camia was the same.

She also gained immense benefits, quickly advancing from mid-level 20 to the later stages.

Her experience bar filled up, and she leveled up just like that!

My God!

What on earth was happening?

Why was this happening?

Chen Yao felt the Fighting Spirit vanish and kicked out with both feet.

He directly kicked Camia away, and the spikes followed the inertia out of his body.

Camia was completely unprepared and didn't react in time.

Chen Yao's kick sent her flying two or three meters, and she fell to the ground.

"Damn goblin!"

Camia roared, feeling instantly unclean from being touched by a filthy goblin, instinctively wanting to retaliate.

But she suddenly noticed the goblin's figure had already appeared over ten meters away.

After kicking her away, Chen Yao didn't stop for a moment, turning and running.

Having reached level 12, he was back to peak condition!

The wound from the spike was healing rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it was as good as new.

Moreover, he used the Assassin Skill, Hidden Breath!

After using the skill, his body became elusive.

It was the perfect skill for stealth and assassination.

Chen Yao used Hidden Breath, combined with Shadow Step.

His entire figure seemed to flicker, appearing dozens of meters away in an instant.

Camia couldn't lock onto him!

Camia could clearly see what skill it was and was stunned again.

For a moment, she forgot to chase.

She raised her hands in disbelief, looking at the disappearing Chen Yao.

Finally realizing something, her beautiful eyes widened even more.

"Camia, that goblin?"

A voice came from behind, and Carlos, Ronald, and Tilimus all caught up.

"It got away!"

Camia shrugged.

She didn't immediately share her discovery with the others.

"How did it get away?"

"You're a level 20 Assassin, and you let a goblin escape?" Carlos said angrily.

He had lost his composure.

"Heh!"

"You're an Archer, and he's a Warrior, both stronger than me!"

"If you couldn't stop it, how could I?"

Camia retorted with a mocking expression.

"You..."

"Enough!"

"That goblin is different; it's normal not to be able to keep it." Ronald quickly mediated.

Both sides let it go.

"Huh?"

"You leveled up?"

Tilimus suddenly asked.

The other two then noticed that Camia's aura was much stronger than theirs, and they were shocked.

Among the five of them, four were all at the late stage of level 20.

Their experience bars were almost full, just a step away from leveling up.

Camia had always been a step behind them; how did she suddenly level up?

Camia remained calm, "I leveled up while chasing it, I don't know how it happened, which is why the goblin got away."

"So that's it..."

"Who would've thought you'd be the first to reach level 21." Ronald said sourly.

Normally, Carlos should have leveled up the fastest.

He was a Warrior, responsible for tanking damage.

Naturally, he gained the most experience.

Who would've thought someone else would reach level 21 first?

"Let's not talk about this; what do we do next?" Camia quickly changed the subject.

"I suggest we return to Tim Town, take Theodor's body back, and after cremation, we'll come back!"

"Alright!"

With a teammate dead, they couldn't continue the mission.

And missing a member, they needed to find another teammate.

Though reluctant, they couldn't leave their comrade's body exposed in the wilderness.

So they collected Theodor's body and headed back to Tim Town.

Meanwhile, Chen Yao.

He ran for dozens of kilometers, only stopping to rest after confirming he wasn't being followed.

"Finally shook them off, any more and I wouldn't have been able to keep running..."

Chen Yao, now more cautious, found a narrow cave to hide in, even blocking the entrance with stones.

Only then did he dare to lie down, panting heavily, before taking a swig from his water pouch.

"Damn it, I must get stronger!"

"I must level up!"

"Otherwise, they'll kill me sooner or later."

Chen Yao rested for a while, finally catching his breath.

Then he took out some bread and jerky to fill his stomach, and fell asleep.

...

Tim Town belonged to the Ulte Kingdom.

To the north of the Ulte Kingdom was the continent's overlord, the Starshine Empire!

The Starshine Empire occupied most of the continent's land.

Its national strength was formidable, with countless strong individuals.

Especially having occupied many adventure zones and dungeons like the Kela Great Forest.

They trained a large number of high-level adventurers, incredibly powerful, easily crushing any kingdom.

They held an absolute leading position among humans.

At this moment, in the capital city of the Starshine Empire, Starshine City.

Amidst a cluster of magnificent castles.

A tall, silver-haired girl exuding a noble aura sat amidst a sea of flowers.

Her exquisite face was like white jade, dressed in a luxurious palace gown, with golden embroidered patterns fluttering in the wind.

Lifelike, as if alive.

If Chen Yao were here, he would recognize her at a glance.

Who else could it be but his dear mother?

"Your Highness, news just arrived that an adventurer squad returned to Tim Town, and one of their members died!"

A girl, as graceful as an elf, hurriedly approached the silver-haired girl, prostrating herself on the ground, speaking with utmost respect.

"One died?" Avril turned sharply, her delicate face full of frost.

"If I recall correctly, they should be level 20 adventurers, right?" Avril said coldly.

"Yes..."

"Level 20 adventurers, going to a Novice Town, and one still died?"

"Useless!"

"All useless!"

"What should we do next, please instruct us, Your Highness." The girl was so frightened she didn't dare lift her head, trembling slightly.

Who knew what had happened.

Since returning, Her Highness had changed drastically, killing at the slightest provocation.

Four or five maids who served her had already died, and she didn't know when it would be her turn.

"You personally go to Tim Town!"

"Go to the Adventurer's Guild and issue a goblin extermination mission, one silver coin per goblin!"

"If one adventurer squad can't handle it, mobilize everyone!"

"Exterminate all the goblins in the Kela Great Forest!"

"Yes..."

The girl dared not object, quickly getting up and running off.
