In a damp, dark space, droplets of water exuding an earthy smell kept dripping down from high places, gathering into small turbid puddles on the dirty mud floor, rippling gently.
Come.
This is a dungeon filled with the smell of blood and decay.
There are torches stuck on the stone walls, and the flames are rising and swaying at the top.
The rusty and blackened iron railings reflected a figure leaning against the wall in the corner.
That figure was bound by heavy chains and could only maintain a stiff sitting posture.
The weak firelight reflected the shocking scars on his skin.
"Hehe, you hateful human being will finally be executed soon!"
The sound of leather boots hitting the ground was heard, and two fully armed Goblin soldiers walked over one after the other.
The strong Goblin soldier at the head showed a joking smile on his dark green face and said: "So what if one person almost wiped out all of our squadron-sized elite Prime Minister's Guards? In the end, the Prime Minister's
Go out in person and capture him without any help?"
"Yes, yes, the Prime Minister is a genuine fourth-level strong man. How can such a despicable human race be able to compete?"
A sharp voice sounded, and another skinny Goblin soldier, shaking the shining dagger in his hand, echoed: "It's like a mantis trying to use his arms as a chariot, and he doesn't overestimate his own capabilities!"
After saying this, the two goblin soldiers burst into laughter.
However, these two guys laughed for a long time, but the shadow in the corner turned a deaf ear and showed no reaction.
Seeing that his taunting had no effect, the strong goblin was immediately annoyed. He walked to the iron fence of the cell and spat: "What? Where is the majesty of killing everyone in the endless passage? Now, where is the majesty?"
Became mute?"
"It seems that he must have been frightened out of his wits by the wise and mighty Prime Minister!"
On the other side, the skinny goblin also came up and squeezed his dark green head between the two iron railings, as if he wanted to see the expression of the shadow in the corner and take the opportunity to mock him.
However, because the figure kept his head lowered and the light was dim, the skinny goblin just looked lonely.
"After all, the human race is nothing special. Last time, I killed a trembling alien lord and five peasants by myself! Isn't this what your human race calls those of the same kind who suddenly arrived?"
I saw the strong goblin puffing up his dark green chest muscles, showing a lewd smile and saying: "You know, that is a female lord! Tsk tsk."
"I also killed an alien lord! Unfortunately, he was a man!"
The skinny goblin waved the sharp dagger in his hand, and laughed and said: "But the way that guy knelt down and begged for mercy in the end, I still remember it, it was really funny..."
However, the skinny goblin hadn't finished speaking yet.
There was a sound of the iron chains breaking, and the black figure had broken free from its restraints and almost teleported to the two goblins who were clinging to the iron railings.
The next second, a pair of thick arms covered with bloodstains stretched out from the gap in the iron railing. Two thick claw-shaped hands suddenly clamped the necks of the two goblins who were caught off guard.
Click, click.
Accompanied by two crisp sounds of bone breaking.
The two goblins who had just shown off their "achievements" fell crookedly with their eyeballs almost popping out, completely losing the breath of life.
"Almost all those alien lords who have arrived recently are in the primitive hunting stage. In my opinion, they are no different from civilians who need protection. After all, they just arrived passively and struggled to survive."
A hoarse and deep voice sounded, and the figure said calmly: "If it is a bloody battle on the battlefield, no matter how many human soldiers are killed, although I will take revenge on you, I don't think there is anything wrong with what you did."
"And if you use your status as a soldier to kill innocent people indiscriminately, I will never forgive you."
After finishing speaking, he glanced at the two goblin corpses on the ground. The figure turned around and walked back to the corner silently.
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Human Race, these despicable guys have made you suffer."
A sudden middle-aged bass sounded, and in the opposite cell, the figure of a Goblin prisoner slowly emerged and said to the shadow: "Please allow me to apologize on their behalf, even though it is of no use."
I saw this goblin prisoner, wearing a tattered dark red robe, looking apologetic.
After a pause, the middle-aged Goblin prisoner continued: "Originally, for aliens who stray into the Endless Passage, we release them after rescuing them."
"Goblin, let me tell you a secret. I didn't stray into the endless passage. On the contrary, I followed your footsteps. I wanted to see where your lair is and do some damage along the way."
The human race in the shadow smiled hoarsely and said: "It's a pity that I was blocked by your endless passage. I didn't expect the goblins to have such means. Otherwise, even the fourth-level strong ones would not be able to detect my existence."
"Your Excellency is very honest. It seems that you are from Luolong City."
The middle-aged Goblin prisoner shrugged slightly and responded: "Then let me tell you a secret."
"That is, these endless passages were not created by us goblins, we just borrowed them. Even we cannot open some of these endless passages."
Having said this, the middle-aged Goblin prisoner sighed heavily while stroking the iron bars of a special material imprisoning him in front of him.
"You are the most honest goblin I have ever seen."
On the other side, the human race in the shadow raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "So, you are the Goblin Crown Prince they often mention?"
"That's right, I am the one who was deprived of power by that abominable prime minister because of my incompetence in governance."
Shaking his head helplessly, the middle-aged Goblin prisoner responded sadly: "This is the death row before execution. Only those who are executed that day will be escorted here. It seems that both of us are running out of time."
After speaking, the middle-aged Goblin sighed again and said: "If I were still in office, you would have been sent away from here by now. Moreover, attacking Luolong City was not my original intention. Please forgive me.
."
"It doesn't matter, it's just because you attracted the attention of those goblins that they didn't torture me, right?"
Shrugging slightly, the human race in the shadow said indifferently: "I think so, compared with controlling this underground city, a human scout is naturally nothing."
Immediately afterwards, a sharp and strange laughter sounded, and the human race in the shadow suddenly laughed.
"What do you mean by this?"
Looking at the other party who suddenly laughed heartily, the dark green face of the Goblin Crown Prince was full of confusion.
"It's nothing, I'm just laughing at myself."
I saw the human race in the shadow, shoulders shaking violently, laughing: "I didn't expect that after fighting for most of my life, I would end up becoming a cellmate on death row with a Goblin crown prince!"
"Your Excellency is really a weird guy."
After being stunned for a long time, the Goblin Crown Prince shook his head helplessly and said: "I can't be as free and easy as you. Once the Prime Minister takes office, this Goblin Kingdom called the Kingdom of Thorns will probably be destroyed.
Already..."
"It seems that you haven't given up hope yet."
Hearing this, the human race sitting cross-legged in the shadows on the ground stopped laughing.
He was seen dragging his chin with one hand, and the flickering firelight not far away reflected the rather sharp eyes on his face.
"Unless I really close my eyes, I will never give up hope."
On the other side, the Goblin Crown Prince's bell-like brown eyes were full of determination: "Until the last moment!"
Just when the two people who had the same problem were talking about this.
There was a crisp sound of armor clashing.
Under the illumination of the surrounding torches, a Goblin Shaman wearing a gorgeous robe and holding a poisonous dead wood staff walked slowly over from far to near, surrounded by a group of Goblin soldiers who exuded a good momentum.
.
"Haha, my respected Crown Prince, it's time to send you to the execution ground."
Glancing expressionlessly at the two corpses of the Goblin jailers on the ground, the Goblin Shaman went straight to the cell opposite and said with a smile: "Great Prime Minister, I can't wait to see you when you are beheaded.
So heroic!"
"Mangkou, you are such a treacherous guy. You have already rebelled and assisted the prime minister, that ruthless guy, to secretly attack Luolong City without authorization and eliminate many otherworldly lords around you."
The Goblin Crown Prince looked indignant and asked, "Do you want to see us, the Goblin clan, become synonymous with deceitful good and fearful of evil, and cunning and cunning in the eyes of other races?"
"My innocent Crown Prince, I don't have such unrealistic ambitions as you. As long as I can eat well and drink spicy food every day, and kill the weak and plunder women of foreign races for my enjoyment, I will be satisfied."
The Goblin Shaman, who smiled obscenely at the Goblin Crown Prince and wore an exaggerated and colorful feather headdress, grinned and said, "And the great Prime Minister can just meet all the needs of the villain."
"You are a self-destructive fellow. Sooner or later, this Kingdom of Thorns will be destroyed in your hands!"
Hearing the sound, the Goblin Crown Prince clung to the two adjacent iron railings in front of him and said angrily: "I will curse you forever!"
"Hey, we have a lot of trash who cursed us before they died, and you are not the least of them."
With a disdainful snort, the Goblin Shaman's eyes suddenly turned sinister and he said coldly: "Okay, my dear Crown Prince, it's time for me to carry out the Prime Minister's orders."
After speaking, the Goblin Shaman raised the poisonous wooden staff in his hand and pointed it directly at the dirty big nose of the Goblin Crown Prince.
The next second, violent energy waves rippled from the top of the poison staff, and a dazzling green light was emitted, knocking the Goblin Crown Prince unconscious.
"Carry it away."
Nodding to the elite Goblin soldiers beside him, the Goblin Shaman smiled ferociously, turned to the other side, and said solemnly to the human race in the shadow: "Don't worry, it will be your turn soon.
"
Next, there was a crisp sound of unlocking.
The unconscious Goblin Crown Prince was carried out by the soldiers, and then left the dungeon under the leadership of the Goblin Shaman.
Until the figure of the other party completely left the sight, the human race, who was watching all this silently, couldn't help but recall the words of the Goblin Crown Prince just now.
"Don't you give up hope until the last moment? However, there are endless passages here, so how can there be any hope?"
Thinking of this, the human race stood up again, and the flickering firelight reflected his face covered with scars.
"If someone can really give me hope, then I, Benson, am willing to spend the rest of my life repaying it until the last moment of this miserable life."
…
"Hurry up! The Prime Minister is still waiting for us at the execution site!"
In the dungeon passage filled with torches on both sides, the Goblin Shaman spat and cursed at the other Goblin soldiers: "A bunch of lazy idiots, you were so diligent when we besieged the female lord from another world last time.
tight!"
"Master Qian Fu, something seems to be wrong..."
The Goblin soldier walking at the very back swallowed his saliva involuntarily and said cautiously: "There were guards patrolling here just now, but now it seems a little too quiet."
"Um?"
Hearing the sound, the Goblin Shaman was startled for a moment, and his expression immediately became nervous. He ordered in a low voice: "Quickly speed up. There is a communication circle deployed in the jailer's room in front. Let's go there to request reinforcements!"
"No need to bother. The goblins who were planning to ask for reinforcements have already become dead souls under the sword."
A faint voice sounded, and the figure of a young human race man suddenly appeared at the entrance of the passage, playing with the long sword in his hand and saying: "Of course, including you."
"you……?!"
On the other side, the Goblin Shaman's expression suddenly changed, and just as he was about to raise his poison staff, a sudden cold light flashed in front of him.
The next second, a long crack was opened on the dark green neck, causing a bright red lotus to bloom instantly in mid-air.
"Well……"
There is no doubt that the Goblin Shaman's cloudy gray eyes, which had just been filled with murderous intent, had already lost all color of life.
At the same time, fatal trajectories flashed past one after another.
One after another, red lotuses began to bloom in the air, causing the surrounding group of Goblin soldiers to fall to the ground with their hands on their necks.
Needless to say, the ones who took action were naturally Nan Xing, Nan Yue and Hu Zhang, and the figure of Ye Cang, who had been guarding Lei Xiao, also emerged.
Before that, Lei Xiao and his team had completely cleared the heavily guarded Goblin dungeon.
And, they were divided into three teams.
Hongye, Randall, Lian, and Chaoyan were on guard at the perimeter, Lei Xiao led people to search for the Goblin Crown Prince, while Ariel, Bert, Orange Bai and Bai Wei were looking for Benson.
"Lord, according to Ye Cang's description, this should be the Goblin Crown Prince."
The burly Japanese knotweed brought the stunned Goblin Crown Prince in front of Lei Xiao like it was holding a baby.
"Take him to a secluded place and wake him up first."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao put on his cloak again and disappeared into the darkness.
Just like that, within a moment, a group of five people appeared in a dungeon guard room in the corner.
"Ye Cang, wake him up."
Nodding to the muscular priest, Lei Xiao smiled slightly and said: "A good show is about to be staged."
