Reborn as God: The strongest system

Esdras knew for a fact that the place still had many traps although they could probably navigate the place themselves now thanks to the chaos created by his spell, but it was still better to have a guide someone from the inside.

"That, I don't know... I am not allowed to work up there I don't know anything! Hik! But but I can lead you to some robs a ladders that will take you up there fast."

"No need, you've done enough thank you and goodbye." Esdras nodded at Calvin and he beheaded the goblin at once.

He wouldn't take the risk to trust such an information from the goblin, even the news about Redthorn was not fully confirmed yet he was still going to ask a few more goblins just make sure.

If he believed everything that goblin said, he would be an idiot.

Seeing that there was no time to waste. Otherwise the goblins will re-organize once again, and they will lose this precious chance so they entered through the burning nest, which was full of birds of bodies and ash.

The whole smell of the place along with the burnt bodies was disturbing to say the least. It created the image of a horrible battle.

Many ants could be seen frantically spasming. I'm doing nothing in particular. Some of the goblins began to react that last, and some of them were shouting and pointing at the fire.

Calvin, the close combatant, was the first to rush in, he displayed a better version of the pseudo-techniques that he showed to Esdras a while back.

He disposed of tens of goblins, while they were searching for the best method to reach the top of the nest. From the inside, it looks no different than an ant nest, except it was giant.

Also, it had been combined with several structures built with crude wood. He assume that this is how the goblins moved about daily.

Meanwhile, Dalen and David interrogated a few more goblins and confirmed that the item was indeed in the top.

Esdras certainly felt something and lifted his hand in the air and caught an arrow and at his head. The arrow was laced with poison, and it was very powerful for goblins.

He looked up on one of the ram parts and saw several hobgoblins armed to the teeth. At first look, you would think that they were elite soldiers.

He checked them all up and discovered that they were all level 3, they possessed better stats than regular goblins and stood at the heights regular humans.

Suddenly a water current slammed into them, they did not expect to be all in the range of the attack, the water did not even tag them alone the entirety of the rampart was washed with high-pressure water.

They fell down and died on impact, that was Celine's work. Unfortunately, he missed out on the EXP but it was fine.

Seeing others doing their part, allowed him the time to analyze the structure and finally figured out a way to climb up.

It was actually thanks to the place falling apart that allowed him to see you thinks much clearly, there are several pitfalls that would have taken them somewhere else entirely.

At this time, many goblins started appearing out of the different holes within the ant nest. Some of them were riding, don't ants and screeching loudly, pointing various weapons at them.

"Guys! Start climbing up this way!" Esdras pointed at the direction he wanted them to follow.

"What will you do?" David was first to listen to him and asked him.

"I will do some cleaning up here." Esdras didn't need to do this now per se, but it was better to be out of them now so that they don't get surrounded later on.

They had no doubts about his strength, so they started cleaning up, which gave him the chance to cover their backs, and at the same time get some of that EXP back.

Fire blazed around him in a circle, with a thought, these flames turned into streams of fire that burned down everything that they touched that they be giant ants or goblins.

This was an improved version of flamethrower, he also change the spell a bit through manipulation, and increased its heat to the most optimal degree.

The best weapon against ants was fire.

As he was doing that at the same time he conjured five fireballs that floated above his head in an arch. Each fireball was a meter and a half in diameter.

The special toys were prepared for the group of hobgoblins attacking from the east, they were riding direwolves and one of them was a level 4.

Esdras smiled and released his spiked mace, in this mess, the spikes for much more pronounced, and there was a hole in the middle of the tip area of the mace, a sparking, fire blazed there.

I like a flash, cutting an ark in the goblin horde. I'm crushing their bones one after another, and a single strike. That was all it took to kill three or four goblins at once.

The hobgoblins thought that they would corner him by closing the distance between them when they realize that he was a mage.

But that only accelerated their doom. In close quarters with magic and his enhanced body Esdras was a god of death.

After advancing to the True mage realm, his capacity to unleash magic tripled. Even Esdras did not know what his limits were after all he did not come close to going all out against these goblins.

After he was done, he noticed that his teammates were already up there, so he put away that maze and jumped. After them killing every goblin he saw on the way with stone bullets.

They entered one of the tunnels, and started advancing slowly, curiously enough there was not many traps here. After all, if there were any traps, the goblins would always have to tiptoe in their own base, which was not really practical.

Esdras and company felt an enraged roar, echoing from the end of the tunnel that they were in right now.
