After listening to the conversation between the two goblin soldiers below, Lei Xiao couldn't help but frown slightly.
It seemed that just as he had expected, the Lord of Dragonfall City, Benson, had obviously fallen into the hands of the goblins accidentally.
For more troublesome things, I don’t have much time left for myself.
"Ye Cang, will your mental torture also be effective on these goblins?"
After pondering for a moment, Lei Xiao moved his gaze away from the underground square where the fire was rising, and then fell on the muscular priest beside him.
"Please rest assured, Lord, as long as the target is thinking, it will not be able to escape the mental attack of the subordinates."
I saw a sharp cold light flashing through the lenses of Ye Cang's golden eyes, and then he said with an elegant smile: "My subordinate once mentally attacked a black steel spider, scaring it so much that it laid eggs two weeks early."
"...Dark Priest is truly extraordinary."
After hearing Ye Cang describe his "great achievements", Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, and then said: "Without further delay, let's catch a lone goblin as soon as possible, and first find out the specific location of the cell."
Just like this, accompanied by invisible figures, they passed by quietly.
Under the influence of the invisibility cloak, Lei Xiao and his party escaped into the shadows. After crossing the fiery red spar bridge between the underground square and the city, as well as the large fields of magic plants, they entered this magnificent colorful place.
In the city.
While walking on the roofs of crystal buildings, Lei Xiao further noticed.
Although these buildings look crystal clear, they are actually opaque due to their thick walls. They are like igloos with colored lights, shining faintly.
It is worth mentioning that the architectural style here is very complex.
Some buildings are simple and solid, much like the style of the dwarves, while others are engraved with beautiful reliefs, much like the style of the elves. The tallest bell tower is in the shape of a regular hexagonal prism and is obviously a wing.
Human style.
All in all, the buildings here are like a collection of the talents of hundreds of schools, making it impossible to tell the real builder.
On both sides of the spacious street, rows of large wooden oil street lamps were erected. Lei Xiao even saw a Goblin lamplighter wearing a tattered top hat and holding a rough staff, who was maintaining the street lamps.
At the same time, Lei Xiao observed.
Although the streets here are full of goblins and goblins, it looks very lively.
Moreover, most of the meat for sale is various kinds of monster meat raised in captivity, which obviously shows that this place has a quite large scale in terms of breeding.
However, the rows of shops erected on the street are relatively shoddy, which undoubtedly forms a sharp contrast with the splendid and magnificent buildings next to them.
"The level of civilization of this goblin is obviously much higher than that of ordinary goblins."
Looking at these ragged goblin civilians holding a green crystal similar to the one on the cave wall as trading currency, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
"By the way, when the two Goblin soldiers mentioned Benson before, they also mentioned "that Lord". Who is this "that Lord"?"
Thinking of this, the curious look on Lei Xiao's face began to become more obvious.
Next, after turning to a secluded street corner.
The group of people soon found a Goblin soldier with a red face and a thick neck. Judging from the exquisite leather armor, he should be a Goblin Centurion.
Moreover, from the obscene state of his swaying and burping every three steps, it is not difficult to see that he is obviously in a state of drunkenness.
"Go ahead, Ye Cang, the information will be delivered to your door."
I saw Lei Xiao standing by a chimney, nodding to the muscular priest beside him.
"Don't worry, Lord, just leave everything to your subordinates."
Bowing slightly towards Lei Xiao, the metal skull pendant on Ye Cang's chest flashed a strange light under the reflection of a green building next to it.
Immediately afterwards, his figure flashed and he disappeared instantly.
Under the eaves, the drunken Goblin Centurion had just stood still, ready to pull down the waistband of his trousers for convenience.
However, before he could untie his leather belt, Ye Cang appeared behind him and patted his shoulder gently.
"Zhuo! What kind of family doesn't have a good eye..."
Just when the Goblin Centurion, who had been interrupted, looked back impatiently, he happened to meet Ye Cang's deep gaze.
Examination of Dark Imagery Demons.
The next second, the angry-looking Goblin Centurion's body suddenly stiffened, his eyes were blank, his arms were hanging down, and he stood there blankly.
Ye Cang, on the other hand, stretched out his hand and carried it directly to the shadow of a remote corner.
It didn't take long before a light breeze passed by.
Ye Cang returned to Lei Xiao again.
"For the information, Lord, the location of the cell has been found out. It is to the west of the arena in the center of the city."
Saluting Lei Xiao gracefully, Ye Cang smiled faintly and said, "And the identity of 'that adult' has been found out."
"oh?"
Looking at the dark yellow liquid slowly flowing out of the shadow of the remote corner, Lei Xiao couldn't help but curled his lips slightly and motioned for Ye Cang to continue.
"Lord, currently, there are two incompatible forces in this Goblin Kingdom."
I saw that Ye Cang still maintained his bowing posture and continued: "The one who currently holds the power is the Goblin Prime Minister. The one who launched a large army before to pretend to attack Luolong City, but actually wanted to plunder the place where the ancestors slept, is this one
Guy."
"And the so-called "that lord" is the crown prince of the Goblin. Because he was dissatisfied with the Goblin Prime Minister's actions, he started a conflict with him, which eventually turned into a small-scale war within the royal city."
"As a result, since the Goblin Imperial Guard troops were secretly controlled by the Goblin Prime Minister, the defeated Goblin Crown Prince was imprisoned and awaiting execution."
Pushing the golden eyes on the bridge of his nose, Ye Cang added: "As long as the Goblin Crown Prince is executed, the Goblin Prime Minister will naturally usurp the throne."
"I see, power disputes are indeed everywhere."
With a slight sigh, Lei Xiao rubbed his chin and asked again: "What about the Goblin King here?"
"Back to your lord, for a long time, the top decision-makers of this Goblin Kingdom have been the Goblin Crown Prince and the Goblin Prime Minister. There is no king. This is a bit incomprehensible."
Ye Cang shook his head in confusion and responded: "It is incredible that an underground kingdom with a large scale has been without a king for a long time."
"So there is such a thing..."
Looking at Ye Cang's confused face, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Then, Lei Xiao's dark eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered the lost crown of thorns he had obtained before.
"I remember that the last sentence on the note on the crown is, "It is undeniable that according to the tradition of Goblins, the owner of this crown is the King of Goblins"..."
"I see, because the crown has never been found, will there never be a king here?"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao suddenly became enlightened.
"A kingdom without a king? It's really hard to understand."
On the other side, Ariel lowered her eyebrows and began to look at each other with other subordinates who also had confused expressions.
"It's actually very simple."
With a faint smile, Lei Xiao described the matter of [Crown of Thorns] to everyone.
"So, is the holder of the crown the king of this Goblin Kingdom?"
After listening to Lei Xiao's description, Chao Yan's little face showed a look of enlightenment, and he said happily: "So, the lord is the king here? This is great!"
"I don't have time to rule an underground Goblin kingdom here."
Pouting his lips slightly, Lei Xiao said: "Moreover, even if we have the crown, to the goblins, they are a group of aliens after all. Even if they surrender now, there will definitely be hidden dangers."
"My lord, you are right. The Goblins have different ideas from the human race in every aspect. They are even very different."
The old voice sounded, and Bert gently stroked his short beard and said: "No matter how wise and great the monarch is, it is impossible to govern a completely unfamiliar country."
"Then isn't this Goblin's crown wasted in vain?"
I saw Chao Yan pouting and muttering: "I thought I could play happily with these little green-skinned and big-nosed monsters in the future."
"It's indeed a waste. Although these little green guys are very cunning, it would be a good thing if they can be used by us!"
On the other side, Bai Wei's big white tail was gently swinging back and forth, and he added.
"Such a rare opportunity will naturally not be wasted."
Smiling at the two of them, Lei Xiao turned around and asked the Muscular Priest: "Ye Cang, how is the Crown Prince who is about to be executed?"
"Back to the lord, the Goblin Centurion just now is loyal to the Crown Prince who is imprisoned with Benson. However, with his ability, he is unable to rescue the other party.
Only then will you get extremely drunk."
Pushing up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, Ye Cang responded: "According to the information in his mind, the crown prince is upright, implements benevolent government, is unwilling to go to war with other races, and only wants to change other races' contempt for goblins.
opinions and advocate innovation.”
"But the Goblin Prime Minister is just the opposite. Not only is he ruthless, sticks to old rules, and uses lynching to eradicate dissidents at will, but he also enjoys personally applying curse spells, and even wiped out many lords from other worlds."
Having said this, Ye Cang shook his head helplessly.
"Understood."
Thinking of Zhou Wu and the other five lords who were almost killed when the goblins attacked the city that night, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "If that's the case, then our goal is very clear."
"Lord, what do you mean...while rescuing Benson, you can also rescue the crown prince who is about to encounter an accident, and then send him to the real Goblin throne?"
Hearing this, Bai Wei's gem-like blue starry eyes lit up, and she suddenly said with enlightenment: "As long as we let him be our agent, he will naturally control this underground kingdom!"
"exactly."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao moved his gaze again to the incontinent Goblin Centurion under the eaves.
Then he curled his lips to the muscle priest and said: "Ye Cang, this guy can be considered a hero. If everything goes well, don't forget to turn around and release your mental attack."
"Lord, please rest assured."
Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Ye Cang immediately responded: "He is worthy of being the most respected lord among his subordinates. Even such a small person can be favored by the lord."
"For the enemy, we must behead the enemy without hesitation, but for our own people, the reward and punishment must be clear."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's go, target the cell in the goblin underground city!"
"As you command! Lord!"
The subordinates surrounding Lei Xiao immediately said in unison.
Next, there was another fast and furious experience.
It didn't take long for the dusty group of people to arrive at an extremely large circular arena.
At a glance, this arena looks like a hill, standing in the center of the city.
Its huge scale is at least four times that of the Gelin City Open-Air Theater.
The oval structure and the white crystal material look crystal clear and are amazing.
"Lord, my subordinates seem to know the purpose of this place."
Just when Lei Xiao raised his head and looked up, Lian's crisp voice sounded: "If my subordinates guessed correctly, this place was once a God's Chosen Arena!"
"God's Chosen Arena?"
Upon hearing this brand new term, Lei Xiao couldn't help but feel a hint of curiosity on his face, and motioned for the other party to continue.
"Back to Lord, that's exactly what it is."
Lian nodded slightly, and while stroking his somewhat messy hair, he continued: "The Lord may not know something, but there are two ways in which the chosen son of God is born."
"The first type is that a very small number of talented people directly receive the attention of a certain god, and then receive divine enlightenment, and automatically gain the qualification to enter the land of the gods that belongs to a certain god."
"And the second type is that every seventy-two years, all the races on the mainland select the stronger ones of the younger generation. After competing with each other, the top three winners can also become the Chosen Sons of God and gain entry.
Qualifications for the land of God’s favor.”
At this time, Lian took a deep breath and solemnly said: "And this God's Chosen Arena is the place where all races compete for the God's Chosen Son!"
"So that's it."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao pondered and said: "So, this gorgeous underground city was probably not built by one race, but by many races together? No wonder the architectural style is so complex and changeable.
."
Realizing this, Lei Xiao regained his composure and said: "Put this matter aside for now. Let's move on. We are already very close to the goblin's cell."
