To Get Stronger, I’m Forced to Grind Their Affection

Chapter 11

"Ah♀~"

"I somehow feel like things are getting strange..."

Luolin was also quite helpless, but if even this wasn't enough, could it be that he would have to...

Luolin's hand began moving downward, sliding across Ailuka's smooth lower abdomen.

Even Luolin himself couldn't help but swallow, feeling his mouth go dry.

[Yes, yes, yes, just like that.]

[Master! Don't believe it, the resentment value is already sufficient!]

However, this voice quickly interrupted Luolin, and he stopped what he was doing.

[Damn it, you're ruining my plans!]

[It's because you're too greedy.][Me, greedy? You're clearly the unreasonable one! You actually made it so the host must work hard to increase favorability afterward through that method!]

[Aren't you the same? You even want the master to start grinding now.]

As a result, the two systems started arguing again in Luolin's mind.

"Enough!"

Luolin shouted loudly, which instead startled Ailuka.

Ailuka was lying in Luolin's arms with a dazed look in her eyes, and seeing this, Luolin didn't dare look at her.

"I'm sorry..."

Luolin gently placed Ailuka to the side and tidied up her disheveled clothes.

"There's a reason for all of this."

"Do you think I'll believe you? Pervert!"

Ailuka cursed through gritted teeth. Luolin had no rebuttal and could only silently endure the scolding.

"Alright, stop arguing. Quickly give me the medicine, or else I'm going to be killed by these goblins."

Luolin said again, and in the next moment, a green potion appeared in his hand.

Luolin didn't dare hesitate, nor did he have time. He quickly consumed it. His body didn't have any special reaction yet, but the goblins had already attacked.

Several minions wielding wooden clubs and curved blades rapidly attacked. In Luolin's eyes, their speed seemed to have decreased several times over.

Luolin slightly shifted his body and easily dodged, then kicked out, this time sending his target flying more than ten meters.

This was the effect of increased agility and strength values.

"Oh ho... interesting!"

Luolin got excited.

He defeated one goblin.

"Come on!"

He defeated three goblins.

"Come again!"

He defeated ten goblins.

"Come... again... come your mother! Are you ever going to stop! There are so many of you! Don't goblins need family planning?"

Luolin was nearly exhausted to death, but finally, now that goblin leader was just a lone commander.

"Only you're left... come on..."

However, Luolin felt a sense of weakness surging through his body.

"What's going on?"

Luolin couldn't help but be surprised.

[The effect of the amplification potion only lasts ten minutes, and after that you'll become very weak. Plus, with the poison from your earlier wound, you'll definitely fall into a coma when the toxicity erupts.]

"Damn it, you should have said so earlier!"

Luolin was even more helpless. He looked back at Ailuka, who was in a disheveled state all over, and then turned his gaze toward the goblin chieftain before him.

Seeing Luolin's weakened appearance and Ailuka's miserable condition, this guy didn't seem willing to give up easily either.

It opened its mouth and made strange sounds, as if provoking them.

"Not planning to run away?"

This creature had never personally attacked Luolin before, but rather was willing to sacrifice the lives of its subordinates to exhaust Luolin's stamina.

"Then come on!"

Luolin didn't have much time. He seized the remaining duration of the potion's effect and continued moving forward.

The goblin chieftain let out a loud cry, and the "Flame Arrow" skill was released again, splitting into several small fireballs.

Luolin barely managed to block the attacks in front of him, but still got hit several times on his body.

"Hiss..."

The pain made him suck in a sharp breath. Only now did Luolin deeply realize that even with all these numerical values, this ultimately wasn't a game—if he died, he would truly die.

Enduring the pain, Luolin directly pressed the longsword in his hand against the goblin chieftain's neck.

It discarded the weapon in its hands and gripped Luolin's longsword tightly with both hands.

Luolin continuously applied force, while the opponent clearly showed no sign of weakness either.

From the ferocious expression on the goblin chieftain's face, one could completely see its will to survive.

Just as people die when they are killed, these creatures as monsters were no exception.

The man and the goblin facing each other both used all their strength—this was a life-and-death battle.

The goblin made strange cries, then suddenly released one hand and clawed at the wound on Luolin's arm.

"Aaaaaahhh!"

Luolin also let out a painful cry, but still, he couldn't let go.

Luolin gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength.

"Go to hell!"

The blade fell, striking the goblin chieftain's neck. Green blood spurted out, and it gradually lost all its life force.

Luolin stood up, then fell backward, continuously gasping for breath. Sure enough, a sense of weakness kept washing over him.

"Are you alright!"

Ailuka spoke nonsense while dragging her own equally dire body over.

"Nonsense, do I look alright to you?"

Luolin also said.

Ailuka lifted Luolin's head and placed it on her kneeling lap.

"The poison on the goblin scimitar is generally an extract from a plant called 'Ghost Hemp.' It paralyzes the nerves and can't be allowed to flow through the blood to the brain, so the head needs to be elevated. You... don't misunderstand!"

Ailuka seemed to be explaining something.

However, Luolin was now concerned about another matter—

"Quick... help me cut... cut off a few goblin ears, need them to... turn in the quest..."

Then Luolin sank into heavy darkness and lost consciousness.
