《My Passive Skills are Invincible!》Chapter 202: When Survival Needs To Be Maintained Through Struggle...

"Protection... is always stronger than plunder?"
Timus fell into deep thought when he heard Mike's words.
Mike slightly smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand it now. You'll understand it in the future. The most important thing right now is to quickly find those centaurs and goblins."
Timus nodded immediately after hearing this. He looked at the centaur and asked, "Where are they?"
However, the Centaur did not hear him at all.
His eyes stared at the wounds on his body that were slowly getting healed. He was in a daze.
Obviously, this scene was too magical and it shocked him.
When the centaur came back to his senses, Timus had already called him a few times.
"They're... they're in the goblins' nest! I'll go with you!"
The centaur who had come back to his senses remembered that his compatriots were still fighting and immediately stood up, but with difficulty.
However, after Mike helped him up, he said, "No need. You can go back to the tribe. Leave the goblinss' matters to us."
"How can that be?!"The centaur immediately became anxious. "My compatriots are still fighting. They're in danger now. How can I go back alone?!"
He seemed to have a lot to say, but Mike interrupted him.
"Listen, we found a young centaur in the village. That child needs your care right now.
"Think about it. What will happen if other goblins find that child?"
Mike paused while he gave the agitated centaur some time to digest the information.
As expected, the Centaur's expression quickly turned ugly.
It was true, leaving a young child alone in the village was definitely dangerous.
The other children had clearly been gathered and told to escape to a safe place. The child must have been careless for some reason.

Mike could see the Centaur's mood change. He took advantage of this moment while the Centaur contemplated.
"Moreover, with the strength of Timus and I, the goblinss won't need to worry at all.
"You can be rest assured and leave it to us."
The centaur was still a little hesitant, but after he looked at Mike and Timus' faces, he made up his mind and nodded.
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you guys!"
No matter if it was Mike or Timus, or how powerful they were, the Centaur race was very familiar with them.
He believed that these two humans would definitely be able to help them defeat the goblins!
The situation was urgent. After confirming this matter, Mike and Timus set off for the goblin nest without stopping.
Timus naturally knew where the goblin nest was. Mike only needed to let Timus lead the way.
Moreover, even without Timus leading the way, Mike could easily find the goblin nest. This was because the blood trail never stopped.
Some of the blood had completely dried up or seeped into the soil, dyeing it dark purple or even dark black.
Most of the trail had large amounts of blood.
There were even some body parts of the Centaur or Goblin that could be seen.
From this, it could be seen how fierce the battle was.
Both sides had reached a conclusion where neither would not rest until one of them died.
This was also why there was a Centaur who lay on the ground and waited to die.
He did not want his compatriots to delay killing the enemy in order to save him.
This would likely cause more damage to the Centaur race, because the goblinss would definitely counterattack while the Centaur race rushed to save people.
In this situation, both sides only had one goal left, and that was to kill everyone on the enemy side!

Other than that, everything else became secondary.
As Mike and Timus got closer and closer to the goblins' nest, the number of corpses on the ground gradually increased.
Most of the Goblins' corpses were still fine. At most, there were a few dents in their bodies. It was obvious that they had been kicked to death by the Centaurs' hooves.
The Centaurs' corpses, on the other hand, were much more tragic.
Most of them were badly mutilated. Some of the corpses had even been dismembered.
The wounds were all very severe. It did not look like they had been cut by a sharp weapon. They had probably been blown up by a bomb.
As he walked forward and looked at the corpses, Timus' expression became more and more grim. Mike's expression did not look any better either.
The centaurs treated Mike and Timus very well. The centaurs did not have any wariness or reservations towards them just because they were not of the same species.
It was unfortunate that such a friendly and kind race had to face such an encounter.
This made both of them very uneasy.
"What did they do wrong?" Timus suddenly said this as they hurried along.
Mike slowly turned his head to look at Timus.
Timus looked ahead with a complicated expression on his face.
Although he didn't say clearly who 'They' were...
Mike could understand.
Mike sighed softly, "Perhaps living in this world is a mistake in itself."
"Why?" Timus was very puzzled. He could not help but frown.
Mike was silent for a moment and answered, "When everyone is struggling to survive, then everyone else's existence is pathetic."
This time, Timus did not speak.
Mike did not speak either.
The two of them walked forward in silence.
The atmosphere was very silent.
Just when the silence was too much to bear, Mike and Timus finally saw a very large hole.
The blood stains were not at the entrance of the hole. Obviously, this was the goblins' nest.
Mike and Timus looked at each other and immediately jumped into the cave.
The tunnel was very smooth. It did not look like it was formed naturally, but more like it was man-made.
The materials used to create the tunnel were probably made of some kind of metal.
After the two jumped into the cave, they went down a very long slide. It was very dark in the cave, and nothing could be seen clearly.
If they were in the game, Mike would have only needed to hold a weapon, then, the weapon would automatically emit light. Although it was not very bright, it was definitely enough to dimly light up their surrounding area.
But in this parallel world, it would not work.
The weapon that emitted light was in the game's setting, and through the quality of the weapon, it emitted different types of lights.
They had no choice but to continue sliding down the tunnel.
No one knew what was waiting for them towards the end of the tunnel.
But they did not hesitate!
There was no other reason, just the centaurs who did not belong to the same race as the goblins.
That was enough.
Thump, thump, thump. Timus and Mike finally landed.
Mike looked back at the tunnel.
Such a smooth tunnel obviously meant that they could not go back from here. If they wanted to leave this cave, they would have to find another exit.
Timus had obviously noticed this as well.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled simultaneously.
"Who cares what'll happen next? Let's kill all the goblins first!"

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
