The 'natural disasters' quickly ended after about 20 minutes and Felix still didn't find the entrance to the cave.
'It's about to happen' Felix was very impatient to find the cave as the creatures will soon come to Earth through the dimensional portals. As the name indicated the creatures comes from different worlds but they aren't the most dangerous things yet.
Animals on Earth will mutate or evolve into dangerous creatures being a more immediate danger to people. Most of them will mutate into an initial rank 1 that can be killed with some effort but if you're unlucky you might encounter one that mutated into the intermediate stage of rank 1, if you have a gun you could survive.
But if you're really unlucky then the animal around you can possibly evolve into a higher ranked creature. Most of them will be advanced stage of rank 1 and peak stage rank 1. Though the possibility is low, lower than winning the lottery, they might also be initial stage rank 2.
'Luckily the insects on Earth can't evolve even after 150 years' Thought Felix as he was cutting the thick vines throughout the forest that appeared due the 'natural diaster' that was also called the World Disaster.
Soon after an another 20 minutes Felix finally found the cave or at least he thought so as it looked very familiar. But what Felix didn't expect is to see a small ugly green creature in front of the cave loitering around.
'A goblin!?' Although goblins one of the first creatures that appeared on Earth isn't strong to threaten an adult, most of them are in groups making them extremely dangerous at the start coupled with the facts that the ones fighting them are modern people without any experience in fighting, the goblins could easily kill the humans who also feared them.
Felix hid behind a bush followed by Kate who didn't know what was going on.
Defeating one goblin was the same as walking in a peaceful park for Felix but when you see a goblin then there is 99% of the time a tribe that it it's with.
Some tribes of goblins may have a warrior in it or worse an assassin. Though the assassin is weaker physically, if you underestimate it just because of that then you are an idiot.
Even if Felix has 150 years experience of an apocalypse survivor doesn't mean he will think that goblins are by any means weak.
First, he isn't strong anymore as before meaning that his perception isn't as strong in his peak. So an assassin goblin could bypass his percetion if it's a well trained one, if it's a greenhorn then Felix has nothing to worry about.
Time passed by and Felix finally saw some goblins returning, many are the same like the goblin he saw but only two are different.
One is bigger than all the goblins with a quite big club and the other one is old, looks weak and small.
Felix quickly knew that the former was a goblin warrior and the latter is most likely the goblin chief. Goblins are stupid but not that stupid to make the strongest goblin the chief. Only wise goblins are qualified to be chiefs.
Felix could finally relax as he didn't see any assassin goblins.
Most of the normal goblins didn't even reach the initial stage rank 1 but some of the more trained one did. The goblin warrior on the other hand is on the verge to breakthrough to intermediate stage rank 1.
Humans are physically weaker than any creature in the wild, the same goes when they breakthrough to the next stage or rank. The goblin warrior has the same physical strength as him if he didn't train the technique, golden glow and toughen his body with the energy of time.
Felix was confident to defeat the whole goblin tribe alone, but he glanced beside him to see Kate staring at the goblins with an expression of disgust.
Although Felix wanted to protect his sister he lost in his previous life as much as possible but he knew if he constantly protect her that he would do more harm than care for her.
That is why he is also grateful to able manipulate time as he could help Kate if she was in danger.
''Kate, you deal with the normal goblins and I will deal with the goblin chief and the goblin whi looks fiercer than the rest'' Kate just nodded to what he said.
As for why he will also deal with the goblin chief who actually looks the weakest of them all? That is because the goblin chief might be a shaman. Goblin shamans are always smaller than the average goblin whom are around 1 meter in height. They look weaker and have a wooden stick with them most of the time.
Shamans in goblin tribes doesn't have to be ranked in other to use their shaman abilities. It's just if they are ranked that their abilities will be strengthened.
Felix quickly sprinted towards the goblin chief as it was the greatest threat in the goblin tribe, when Felix made his appearance the whole tribe was alerted and startled, but soon they came into their senses and attacked Felix.
Kate soon also came out of hiding spot, she took advantage of the situation where every goblin was focusing on Felix as she kicked and punched the goblins with intent to kill.
The normal goblins were quickly taken care of by Kate as she also used her ability to distract them or using it to burn some of their skin creating bigger openings that Kate uses to kill them.
Meanwhile Felix threw a punch towards the goblin chief who threw a fireball spell towards him after a quick chant but Felix quickly slowed time down, dodging the attack he then turned the time to normal again as he threw a kick that sended the goblin chief flying against a stone wall crushing his bones.
A normal goblin would already died by getting kicked by Felix but the goblin chief was a shaman with an even weaker body resulting in it's ultimate death, it didn't even had the time to feel confused how the human dodged it's attack at such close range.
The goblin warrior appeared behind Felix as it swang it's club downwards trying to hit Felix's head but when it thought it made contact the human in front of him suddenly disappeared, after that he felt a sharp pain behind it's neck.
Felix withdrew his knife from the dead goblin warrior as he looked behind him where the normal goblins are getting trashed by Kate.
Fighting with your life on the line includes everything was he learned, using the terrain to your advantage, your surroundings, people and objects.
Felix taught Kate everything important when it comes to fighting, if theres sand on the ground try to grab a handful and throw it at your enemies blinding them, if theres a thick tree behind you, use that to your advantage.
Kate was a fast learner and grasped the important points from their fights before the apocalypse.
Kate quickly defeated all the normal goblins even including the ones who reached the initial stage.
Felix then reached out to his knife and gutted the ranked goblins which disgusted Kate, but eventually she has to get used to it because later on, she also will do it of every ranked creature.
Why? Because the ranked creatures's bodies contains a crystal that can be used to breakthrough faster or just to increase your strength.
In total Felix collected 6 initial stage crystals. Unfortunetaly the goblin warrior's crystal also just counts as a normal initial crystal.
''Are you done?'' Kate asked before she will see the insides of a goblin again. It is just disgusting, no matter how you look at it.
''Yeah'' Felix nodded as he buried the ranked goblins and threw the normal goblins far away, don't want any corpses in fron of your house or cave.
