Life Drain System Chapter 23

"Well, I should get back to cultivating now, soon there will be a lot to do..." Yueliang said to himself.
After a few moments, he looked into his system to find some quests, thinking. 'Although it is nice to cultivate I can already tell that if I do not put what I learn into practice my cultivation will halt. Plus I kind of want to test out my strength since my major boost recently. Oooh this looks good and fun.'
[Wipe out a small goblin encampment]
{Wipe out 0/200 goblins. Any extras may provide extra rewards.}
{Rewards:
+ any loot found
+ 20,000 shop coins
+ 4,000 experience}
'Yang, I would like to do this mission, however how would I get there? As far as I know there are no goblins on earth.' Yue replied.
"Do not worry Yue, the system will teleport you, so long as coordinates are given. Otherwise you will just be teleported to the general area. Then after the quest is done you will be brought back. However if you want to stay on one such planted, you will need to learn teleportation magic to bring yourself there." Yang replied, then said. "You will be teleported in 4 seconds."
"4"
"3"
"2"
Then as Yueliang blinked he saw he was no longer in his house. Then he asked Yang jokingly. 'What happened to one?'
"Figured it would be more fun that way. Do you not agree?" Yang replied.
The two laughed, Yueliang quieter since he could see the goblin encampment in front of him. The goblins where patrolling their little town, most covered in blood. Human bodies dangling from their feet all the camp. They would bite off or just rip off then eat small parts of their bodies. Yueliang saw this and tried to hold back his stomach turning. Noticing the small fence around the town from the hill he was kneeling on, he new it would be slightly more difficult.
These goblins, had light leather armor, and decent weapons. Upon seeing this he noticed a goblin blacksmith, and goblin leader with some goblin elites. Then a notification popped up.
[Notification: Due to new information quest information and rewards have changed.]
[Wipe out the Small Goblin Town]
{Wipe out 0/400 Goblins. Kill the Goblin Leader 0/1. Kill the Goblin Elites 0/10. Any extras may provide extra rewards.}
{Rewards:
+ any loot found
+ 100,000 shop coins
+ 40,000 experience}
'Well the rewards are definitely better, however it seems the difficulty jumped by leaps and bounds as well.' He thought as he began to use inspect on the Goblins.
[Goblin] [Goblin Elite] [Goblin Leader]
[20 health] [50 health] [150 Health]
'Their health is above the humans who do not train, I guess that is to be expected. Looking at their physique they seem strong. It also seems they can speak to each other. I hope I can use language proficiency later.' He thought to himself as he would love to have been able to take the Goblin Blacksmith with him.
Either way while he was examining them, he felt the best way to test their capabilities would be to fight them. So he started going through a spell model to cast the puppet spell. Once the spell was completed a whitish blue mannequin looking puppet appeared roughly the same size as Yueliang. Once this was done he picked up a stick and gave it to the puppet, then had it head down the hill. Because Yueliang did not have much practice with it yet, it was kind of slow and had sloppy movements.

Upon arriving at the base of the hill, some of the goblins faced the puppet and pulled out bows and got ready to fire at it. At the same time, some of the others pulled out spears, swords and shields, whilst others just went about their daily life as they felt the others could handle it.
A volley of arrows was fired, and they filled the puppets body, however it still moved for a while, so the spear wielding goblins came up next to finish it off. The puppet then disappeared, and Yueliang thought. 'Wow, these goblins are as organized and and good as a military troop from the middle ages or even towards the end of world war three when they had a weapon shortage roughly a century ago. Anyways, if it is like this, it will be difficult unless I take them out with a barrage of fireballs, lest I die.'
Yueliang at this point before summoning a fireball thought about if he used this, they would see where it came from, so he should try to figure out a better way to take them out. Considering he was in a wooded area on a hill, and they were in a small crater, he had a slight advantage there. The best way he thought of for now was to jump from tree to tree while fighting them so even if it was chopped down he would not be taken out.
Upon thinking that out, he jumped up into the tree, started casting fireball, and sent it into the most populated area of the little town. Due to having a rough understanding of each node he was able to use one of the best routes for strength, speed, and distance. As it flew over very quickly, he saw the goblins go into a slight panic, and some started running to the sides of their town to avoid the fireball.
Upon its landing, it only killed 8 goblins and injured 26 to varying degrees. Sending them flying from the explosion, and burning the surroundings of about 12 meters. However by the time the spell landed Yueliang already launched another to the same spot, wiping out the 26 injured, and another to the other side. After this, he mainly focused on sending them to the 3 gates at different parts of the town, so as to not let them escape. Although 25 already did and where coming for him.
These 25 where consisting of 9 spear wielders, and 16 sword and shield goblins. Either way, as they were getting closer, he kept launching the fireballs, however he had to go into the shop once to buy about 20 basic mana potions as he did not need anything of a higher degree yet. After every two fireballs he took a potion. The town was only about 100 meters from wall to wall in a circular format. So he quickly wiped out most of the goblins in the town. Although the king and the elites had already hidden themselves in a hole by the time the first fireball landed on them, so he would have to come back to kill them.
Yue upon seeing the town in flames, saw the goblins had arrived and were trying to chop down the tree. So Yue jumped down to be behind them, although some saw this. However before they could react he had drawn his sword and was cultivating while slicing off the head of one, blood gushing out of its body. Then stabbing the hearts of a couple others. Yueliang only had to move a little bit to avoid their attacks, however due to his speed, he was so fast he stumbled over himself from time to time trying to avoid moving too far.

Either way, he still got cuts as they hit him while he was moving, however his durability was much higher than their strength so the only reason he was scratched was due to the blade. Even then it was superficial. However to even injure him to that degree showed the superb work that goblin blacksmith did. After a few seconds they were all dead on the floor, lying in a pool of their own blood. Yueliang quickly gathered anything he saw on them, and figured he would sort it later.
After he had finished collecting everything off of them, he had took one step and was down the hill, another and he was in front of the town. He rushed inside and started looking for the hole that those goblins were hiding in.
---- about 30 minutes later ----
Thud.
Yueliang turned his head back, then looked at where his food stepped. It looked like grass, but because of the thud, he summoned the helping hand, and drew his sword. He used the spell to tug on the grass. He saw a it open as a trap door, however just as it opened a spear came out. 'Phew, good thing I stood back.' Yue thought to himself.
A goblin elite jumped out of the hole, however was quickly decapitated. Its blood spurting everywhere. Yueliang quickly hopped inside the hole, to fight the others, however noticed a tunnel. He ran along it, and quickly saw 10 figures running down the hall on their short little legs. Yue continued running, and three of them turned around with swords drawn to act as a barricade.
Yueliang could not swing a sword in this small area, so he used his hands and pushed the swords aside without touching the blades. Then kicked one away, snapped another's neck, then as a goblin elite tried to stab him hit only scratched his chest. Then Yue punch at the goblin elites chest and straight through. Then continued chasing the others.
As they were running, the goblin leader told the others something. They nodded then stayed back.
Upon Yueliang catching up to them, they went for his genitals and neck. The genitals as a distraction and to cause pain. However the goblin elites where told by their leader to go for the neck which they did. As they went for these two locations, Yueliang tried blocking some of the blades, however his leg got scratched lightly, and one of the swords cut the left of his neck. This would not have been a big deal if not for the carotid artery.
Yueliang noticed this and covered his neck while trying to fight them off. Although he was still doing well, the goblin elites with their higher intellect than goblins, saw this as an opportunity so they kept stepping back and dodging while trying to get in more hits.
This became a problem and Yue asked in his mind. 'Yang, heal me please.'
"Master, it will cost 1000 experience just forewarning you, because you have both a lethal wound, that needs closing and you are at 20% health and dropping fast. Also this will only bring you to 50% health."
"Okay, fine." Yue said in a rush as he knew this would be dangerous otherwise.
A small light shined on the wounds and the goblins noticed that he was healed and where frantically trying to kill him while surviving. Yueliang finally grabbed one by the neck, and ripped his head of with the other hand while using his body as a shield and trap for the others attacks. once their swords where in the body, he threw the body forward. This made the goblins lose their swords.
They were stunned for a second at the surprise however that was enough to kill the last few of them. Yueliang then continued running after the Goblin Leader. He quickly caught up and grabbed his arm and pushed the goblin leaders body, ripping off his sword arm. Throwing it behind him. Then the Goblin leader punch at Yue's face. Yue was surprised he only lost 30 health, however was still losing some due to blood loss.
Pough
Yueliang was sent flying back a few meters losing 20% health. Yue was surprised at such power from the goblin leader. However by the time he was about to react the goblin leader already rushed to him and punched again causing Yue to be down to 10% health. However at this moment, Yue kicked the goblin into the roof of the tunnel, then as he was falling, kicked him again through the tunnel.
The Goblin leader was down to only 10 points of health. and could barely move. Yue grabbed its head very calmly, and used his other hand to decapitate it. A light golden crystal came out of the Goblin Leaders body with part of its organs and spine. Yueliang took it quickly to examine later. However before he could collect the loot from this place he was teleported back.
Ding.
Yueliang passed out upon arrival from exhaustion and low health.
---- A Few Hours Later ----
'Ah, that was a good rest.' Yueliang yawned and said. Then recalled he just did a quest.
[Notification Rewards for completion of quest]
{Wipe out 400/400 Goblins. Kill the Goblin Leader 1/1. Kill the Goblin Elites 10/10. No Extras Killed.}
{Rewards:
+ all loot found
+ mine teleportation crystal
+ 100,000 shop coins
+ 40,000 experience}
'Truly a great reward, and I even got a mine available to me now. Now I do not have to worry about finding certain ores and what not. However if I can get access to other planets mines, then I should really start looking for more on quests. I wonder about my loot.... Well I can check it later. Sadly I did not get as much cultivation in as I hoped so I should focus on that for now, so another quest it is.' Yueliang thought excitedly to do the next quest.

A Broken World [Dropped Pending Rewrite]
This work has been dropped- because I am rewriting it. Look forward to the new and improved "A Broken World," now available HERE on Royal Road! Three thousand years ago, Demonic creatures invaded the world. Though their power seemed irresitable, a band of heroes managed to steal the knowledge of summoning rituals and worlds from them and created, "The Millenial Summoning."

The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods with him. Teaching prayers and invocations that blessed humanities legions and began to push back the demons, founding of the "The Church of the Spoken Word" rose to power and a stalemate was reached. Two thousand years ago, that stalemate was broken by the second casting of "The Millenial Summoning," and the arrival of "The First Sorceress," who taught humanity the basics of magic and enchanting. With the power of the Sorceress, the mages, and the priests the tide turned and the Demonic hordes began to be shoved back, signaling hopes of a golden age for mankind. One thousand years ago, the hopes of final victory and a new dawn for mankind were dashed by traitors who slew the participants of the ritual and took their places, using the ritual to bring forth a godlike being from the demons home world, "The Demon King," for no human knew his name, erased millenia of growth reducing humanity to barely a fragment of its former glory. Now the ritual is being cast again, and a new being is being summoned... In our world, after nearly two decades of studious work, Luke Jaeger is making his dream come true.
