Dungeon King: A Lady Knight Offered by My Goblins

As Ethan casually spoke, he lifted his head to search for the message related to him.

[The Bernie family from City 45 announces to all residents of Deityforsaken Land:

The Bernie family is seeking a man named Ethan, known to carry a spear and accompanied by an exceptionally beautiful woman. His appearance is as follows…]

[If anyone has relevant information, please inform the Bernie family. Generous rewards offered, depending on the quality of the information. Minimum reward no less than one divine crystal.]

Ethan’s pupils constricted as he looked at the photo on the crystal screen.

It was indeed him. His lips tightened slightly, and he subtly lowered his face.

In every Link Tower across Deityforsaken Land, there were no shortage of Bounty Hunters.

Bounty Hunters, those who sought out quests and completed them for rewards.

Ethan noticed an experienced Bounty Hunter eyeing him, a look of scrutiny and doubt in his gaze, probably not having recognized him instantly.

Ethan, observing the expressions of those around him, felt his thoughts jumble.

The Bernie family – the source of his knowledge about this name mainly came from the divine crystal mining mountain.

Herman and his companions had been working for the Bernie family.

Could it be that the Bernie family had discovered the incident with Herman and his group and were now hunting for Ethan?

Another thought crossed Ethan’s mind, related to City 45.

Valentine, the noble scion of the Adrien family in City 45, was also offering a reward for Ethan’s life.

He had even sought out the God of Enigma, secretly setting a trap for Ethan to fall into.

Could there be some connection between the Bernie family of City 45 and Valentine?

At this realization, Ethan felt a surge of alarm and spoke in a low voice, “We are in danger now; someone is already heading our way.”

Lana, incredibly tense, asked, “What should we do now?”

“How can we get to City 0?” Ethan, regaining his composure, asked King.

“There are two ways. The first is to use the teleportation portal. Each Link Tower serves not only as a hub for message transmission but also for personnel transportation. The second way is to find an Urban Wanderer. They frequently travel between cities and know the correct routes to City 0.”

King explained in detail, and Ethan quickly weighed the pros and cons of both methods.

Using the teleportation portal, the first option, was convenient. 

However, given that Bounty Hunters were now on his tail, using the portal would undoubtedly reveal his location.

Ethan’s arrival in City 0 would then be broadcast throughout the entire Deityforsaken Land.

Whether it was the Bernie family or Valentine, locating Ethan would be exceedingly easy.

The only advantage of this method was its time efficiency.

The second option, traveling to City 0 via routes known to Urban Wanderers, had many advantages. 

Most importantly, Ethan could avoid detection by both the Bernie family and Valentine.

But the downside was that the journey would undoubtedly be fraught with challenges. 

Could Alvin hold out in City 0?

As Ethan pondered, a spark of inspiration struck.

Actually, the first method was feasible. He possessed the Mask of the War God Tribe, which allowed him to change his face and even his physique at will.

There was no need to worry about being detected.

As long as he used the Mask of the War God Tribe, there would be no more ‘Ethan’ in the Deityforsaken Land.

Ethan looked around and noticed that many people were subtly observing him.

He made a swift decision and whispered, “King, where is the teleportation portal?”

“It’s behind the hall, but it requires a substantial fee,” King, seemingly influenced by Ethan’s tense demeanor, quickly responded.

“Let’s go.”

Behind the hall, the teleportation portal appeared.

The teleportation portal device was mysterious and unique in design, drawing attention with its appearance.

It typically consisted of two large circular metal rings, each several meters wide.

These rings were placed on a flat surface, leaving a gap between them.

Between these rings was a space flickering with blue light, the core part of the teleportation portal.

The surface of the teleportation portal was covered with a smooth metallic coating, reflecting the surrounding light.

Around the edges of the portal, intricate patterns subtly glowed, resembling slightly faulty circuits.

Ethan’s eyes flickered slightly; Deityforsaken Land indeed had impressive capabilities to have created such a teleportation portal.

He had to admit, the physical attributes and strengths of most inhabitants of Deityforsaken Land surpassed those of Azure Empire.

But at what cost?

Thinking of those monstrosities, Ethan slightly shook his head.

Just then, a snoring sound came from beside the teleportation portal.lightsnovel

Ethan was slightly startled and looked in that direction.

King, aware of Ethan’s urgency, stepped forward and knocked on the table: “Hey, wake up!”

The snoring stopped abruptly as a disheveled man with matted hair and a beard almost covering his entire face sat up in a daze. “What?”

“We want to use the teleportation portal.”

“You must have been kicked in the head by a demon beast. Don’t you know that with the city lord situation unsettled, the teleportation portal can’t be used?” The man lifted his eyes, speaking rudely.

King’s breath hitched slightly: “I haven’t used the teleportation portal before, so I didn’t know.”

The man lay back down in his chair, yawning, “Now you know, so please leave.”

King was about to say something more.

Ethan quickly pulled King back, giving him a meaningful look and subtly shaking his head.

They walked out from behind the hall, and Ethan immediately noticed several people eyeing him.

Ethan telepathically communicated to Lana: “You go with King and find an Urban Wanderer. Get a map to City 31, City 33, or the closest city to City 32. I’ll deal with these people…”

Lana, keenly aware of the malicious glances from the Bounty Hunters, responded softly: “Be careful.”

“Hmm!”

After their exchange, Lana, Daphne, and King left.

The Bounty Hunters, seemingly having their own code, watched Ethan’s companions leave without hindrance.

But Ethan’s actions drew the Bounty Hunters closer.

Now that Ethan knew of their intentions, the Bounty Hunters weren’t going to let go of this lucrative opportunity.

As Lana left, Ethan’s body suddenly lit up with the Thunder Language of Nature.

His figure shot out of the Link Tower like lightning.

The gust of wind generated by his speed was like a hurricane, stinging the faces of Lana and the others, who hadn’t gone far.

King’s expression changed as he called out loudly, “Master!”

“Now is not the time to worry about him,” Lana said, grabbing Daphne’s hand and quickly moving away, “Go find an Urban Wanderer and buy a map to another city.”

King’s face turned pale, and he hurriedly followed Lana.

As Ethan emerged from the Link Tower, a Bounty Hunter bellowed, “There’s a Divinely Crafted Net here, trap him. Where do you think you’re escaping to?”

No sooner had the Bounty Hunter finished speaking than a net-like barrier appeared at the entrance of the Link Tower.

Ethan’s speed was so great that he stretched the “net” as he collided with it.

But the Bounty Hunter’s skills were extraordinary, and Ethan, despite his speed, couldn’t break through the “Divinely Crafted Net.”

He was like a fish caught in a net, rendered powerless.

Seeing this, the Bounty Hunter revealed a radiant smile, “Sorry, folks, looks like the bounty is mine this time.”

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm The other Bounty Hunters showed a hint of unwillingness, and words of reluctant congratulations were about to be uttered.

Ethan’s body burst into golden light, and the Dragonblade in his hand whistled through the air.

A dragon embodying both ice and fire surged out from the Dragonblade.

The Dragon collided with the “Divinely Crafted Net,” unleashing a powerful burst of energy.

The “Divinely Crafted Net” might trap ordinary people, but it certainly couldn’t contain a Dragon!

Instantly, the net was torn apart, and Ethan elegantly made his escape, riding on the Thunder.

The faces of the Bounty Hunters changed drastically as they screamed and rushed towards Ethan.

Their opportunity had arrived.

Only the Bounty Hunter who had used the “Divinely Crafted Net” stood still in shock and horror, unable to process what had just happened.

His “Divinely Crafted Net” could firmly capture 10th-rank warriors.

Even 11th-rank warriors had to exhaust their energy against the net, waiting until he depleted his control over the “Divinely Crafted Net” before they could escape.

Yet Ethan had simply slashed through the net, using brute force to break free from its hold.

The Bounty Hunter couldn’t accept this reality.

Watching Ethan’s retreating figure, he had no other thoughts.

He even realized that those Bounty Hunters chasing after Ethan were likely to meet an unpleasant end.

…

In City 32, streaks of light flashed past.

Ethan was the first of these streaks, with other Bounty Hunters following him like satellites in his orbit.

He glanced back at the pursuing Bounty Hunters, a slight smile curling his lips:

“If I don’t teach you a lesson, you really think you’re invincible.”
