In the guard room where the oil lamp flickered, a warm dark golden life force rippled in the air.
The ashen-faced Goblin Crown Prince was lying on a broken wooden table, and his big eyeballs wrapped in green eyelids began to rotate slowly.
"That bastard Mangkou actually did such a cruel thing. If I use one more point of magic power, I'm afraid I will die on the spot."
The Goblin Crown Prince, who had not yet fully opened his eyes, was rubbing his sore head and said calmly: "What? Have you arrived at the execution site?"
"If the name you mentioned is the Goblin Shaman who escorted you, then he has already passed away early."
On the other side, surrounded by subordinates, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said.
"yeah?"
Hearing Lei Xiao's sudden and unfamiliar voice, the Goblin Crown Prince, who was still a little confused, opened his eyes like bells and reflexively jumped up from the broken wooden table.
With his green eyelids blinking, when he clearly saw Lei Xiao and the other five people as well as the surrounding environment of the guard room, his face instantly changed from confusion to doubt and confusion.
"Human race? You... why are you here?
Quickly retreating to a corner of the table near the wall, the Goblin Crown Prince couldn't help but feel a sense of vigilance in his big brown eyes.
At this time, the Goblin Crown Prince's mind, which was still sore and painful, was already filled with question marks.
This is the guard room of the dungeon, which means that these humans have obviously appeared on their goblin territory.
But, how on earth did they pass through the endless passage? What are they going to do? Are they the human killers hired by the prime minister?!
The most terrifying thing is that these human beings all exude an extremely good aura.
Especially that burly man with an expressionless face, just one look at it was enough to make him shudder... To be honest, he, who was at the peak of the third level of strength, had never encountered such a terrifying human race.
Looking at the panic on the green face of the Goblin Crown Prince, Lei Xiao couldn't help but smile.
The reputation of goblins on the mainland is not good, it can even be said to be infamous.
So much of the time, even if you become a prisoner, your only end is death.
Therefore, the other party's reaction is quite reasonable.
"Relax, we are not your enemies."
Nodding to the goblin in front of him, Lei Xiao smiled and said: "On the contrary, we are your friends."
"friend?"
The Goblin Crown Prince blinked his green eyelids, and after staring at Lei Xiao for a moment, his nervous expression gradually relaxed.
Then he nodded thoughtfully and said: "So, you guys saved me?"
"That's right."
Lei Xiao looked down at the Goblin Crown Prince who looked like a child, nodded slightly, and spoke concisely.
"I am Red Stone Thorn, the seventy-ninth crown prince of the Kingdom of Goblin Thorn. I would like to thank you very much for your life-saving grace!"
Hearing this, the Goblin Crown Prince first breathed a sigh of relief, then jumped down from the table, knelt down to Lei Xiaoxing and said, "Otherwise, I'm afraid I'd be almost at the execution site by now."
While feeling grateful and sighing, the Goblin Crown Prince named Red Stone understood clearly in his heart.
Judging from the current situation, it is absolutely impossible for these human beings to be hired by the prime minister.
This means that the other party cracked the endless passage that is called the place of absolute death by himself.
You know, back then, my Goblin ancestors spent a long time and paid a very heavy price in order to get out of the death cycle.
And all of this is obviously not a problem for the human race in front of them.
This, coupled with the terrifying aura, is enough to prove that these human races definitely have a great background!
"You're welcome, it's just a little effort."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao raised his hand to signal the Goblin Crown Prince, who was kneeling on the ground, to stand up.
Looking at the grateful little green-skinned man in front of him, Lei Xiao could not help but curl his lips slightly.
Long ears, a huge aquiline nose, and big round eyes... If the other person hadn't been wearing a red robe, it would have been difficult for me, a human who had traveled through time and space, to accurately distinguish him for a while.
What these goblins look like.
"But why do you want to save me?"
After standing up again, Hongshi took a few steps back, keeping a polite and safe distance, and then said in awe: "If I guessed correctly, you should be here to save the human race from Luolong City, right?
"
"That's how it is."
Raising his eyebrows noncommittally, Lei Xiao responded: "However, because I found a certain item, I temporarily changed my mind. Now I want to save you and that human race."
"Something?"
Hearing the sound, a look of confusion suddenly appeared on Hong Shi's dark green cheeks.
However, before he could speak, a golden crown appeared on Lei Xiao's palm.
"Thorn...crown of thorns?!"
After seeing the legendary crown clearly, the big red stone brown eyes were almost out of their sockets, and he said in surprise: "Your Excellency opened the closed endless passage and found the remains of my ancestors?!"
"That's it. For you, the importance of this crown should be self-evident, right?"
Lei Xiao smiled faintly at the Goblin Crown Prince in front of him and said.
"To be honest with you, the person who owns this crown is the king of the Kingdom of Thorns. Since the crown was lost in the closed endless passage, the Kingdom of Thorns has not had a king for more than five hundred years."
Hongshi shook his head helplessly and said with a gloomy expression.
Naturally, he would not hide anything from the human race in front of him who saved him.
After a pause, Hongshi seemed to realize something, and asked tentatively: "Dear Sir, are you ready to rule this country of thorns? You are my great benefactor, if you can lead this country
Towards prosperity, I am willing to help you!"
"I have no such intention. It is you who wants to become the king of the Kingdom of Thorns."
Waving his hand slightly, Lei Xiao handed the crown to the other party's hand without hesitation, and said with a faint smile: "And I will help you realize all this."
"this……?!"
After dumbly accepting the shiny golden crown, Hongshi almost choked with tears, and finally shed tears of excitement.
This ancestral crown has been lost for more than five hundred years.
His Goblin royal family has been searching for him for more than five hundred years from generation to generation.
Each generation of Goblin crown princes attempts to open up that endless passage, looking forward to paying homage to their ancestors' holy faces, regaining their ancestors' glory, and finally letting their ancestors rest in peace in this magnificent underground city.
The late king was the pioneer of this magnificent city. With his extraordinary courage, he was the first to step into the endless passage, so he deserved the most solemn funeral and mourning.
However, generation after generation of Goblin crown princes, from the prime of life to the whitening of dark green long ears, have achieved nothing.
Now, this crown of thorns, which represents the royal power of the Kingdom of Thorns and also carries the courage of the pioneer ancestor, is finally back in his hands!
What an honor and honor this is! It is enough for him, the Goblin Crown Prince, to leave a mark in the history of the Kingdom of Thorns!
And all of this was given by the great human being in front of me.
How should I repay such a great kindness?
On the other side, looking at the excited Goblin Crown Prince in front of him, Lei Xiao saw that the time had come, and immediately informed the other party of his identity as an alien lord and the strength of his subordinates.
"So that's what it is... Your Excellency is so powerful that you are definitely no ordinary person!"
After listening to Lei Xiao's description, Hongshi was shocked and without any hesitation, he immediately knelt down on the ground again, knelt down to Lei Xiao and said: "My subordinate Hongshi Jingjing is willing to swear allegiance to the lord! This country of thorns.
, willing to advance and retreat together with the lord!"
"Very good, time is pressing, let's start signing the contract now."
Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao already had a third-level recruitment order emitting silver light on his palm.
It didn't take long before a familiar prompt sounded in Lei Xiao's ears.
[Congratulations, the third-level nine-star goblin druid Red Stone Thorn has signed a master-servant contract with you and has become your new subordinate! 】
"Except for the two submissive races, Burt, Bolen, and Celia of the Moon Wolf tribe, and Rei, who is a divine creation, this is the first time I have subdued a completely foreign subordinate."
Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction, while lifting the still excited Goblin Crown Prince in front of him, he opened the opponent's attribute bar.
[Skill 2: Thorns of Thorns "Active" (plant attribute group gain spell, adds bleeding effect to targets who actively attack)]
[Skill 3: Rejuvenation of the Earth "Active" (plant attribute group healing spell, which can quickly restore the target's injuries and purify negative effects)]
[Skill 4: Healing Druid "Passive" (when using plant attribute healing spells, the healing effect will be moderately increased)]
"Is it a druid? It's a new profession."
Looking at the text on the attribute column, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Through a better understanding of this world, Lei Xiao clearly understands.
Druids can manipulate the power of the forest, which is somewhat similar to natural magicians.
However, it is different from the natural mage who focuses on attacking.
Druid is a rare all-round profession.
You can transform into a magician and focus on spell attacks, you can also use the natural healing power to heal your companions, and you can even transform into a beast and become a powerful warrior.
Of course, the Druids' cultivation methods are extensive and profound, and most of them can only focus on one or two aspects. Otherwise, they will only focus on one aspect and lose the other.
In other words, even if you are extremely talented, you will never have the energy to become a true hexagonal warrior.
"And this Goblin Crown Prince, or the Goblin King in the near future, is obviously focused on healing and auxiliary spells."
After closing the attribute bar of the red stone, Lei Xiao took a deep breath.
At this point, I have obviously accomplished another important goal.
"If this Goblin country of thorns can be successfully brought under my command, it will undoubtedly become an important force in backstabbing the second prince together with Luolong City!"
"You know, although the frontal combat effectiveness of the Goblin regular army is much weaker than that of the human race's regular army, it is still more than enough to deal with the reserve troops and militia left behind."
"When the time comes, as soon as the gate of Luolong City is opened, this Goblin army will undoubtedly be able to march straight in and penetrate directly into the heart of the Second Prince's forces."
"I remember Ariel once mentioned that when the hero king Wang Xi unified Leng Yan, he also used the power of many foreign races. In addition to the half-elves, they even included the notorious half-orcs and the brave
Lizardmen, therefore, as long as there is precedent, there is no problem."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, a clear voice sounded.
After the connection was connected, Ariel's voice came over: "Sir, my subordinates have successfully rescued Benson, the Lord of Fallen Dragon City, and are approaching the designated location! This goblin's force-relieving cage is surprisingly strong.
Woolen cloth!"
"I understand. I've just finished my work here. Let's meet at the designated place."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao first handed Hongshi a brand new invisibility cloak, and then said with a slight smile: "Okay, next, it's time to go to the execution site to meet the Goblin Prime Minister."
"As you command! Lord!"
Hearing the sound, four people, one goblin and five subordinates all bowed and spoke in unison.
Just like that, a moment later, Lei Xiao, Ariel and Benson were already together in the side hall at the back door of the underground cell.
At this time, Lei Xiao looked at the strange middle-aged man who was also wearing an invisibility cloak and couldn't help but show a slightly surprised expression.
Almost all of this guy's exposed skin was covered with large and small scars, making him look quite ferocious.
However, what is somewhat surprising is that.
Although this guy's skin is full of scars, it is quite fair and reveals a sickly elegance, which is obviously very different from the rough skin of the orcs.
"Good guy, is this "Skull Crushing Man" Benson? It's very different from what I imagined."
Thinking of the rumors Hod had heard before, Lei Xiao couldn't help but curled his lips slightly.
On the other side, looking at Lei Xiao who stood calmly.
The surprise on Benson's fair face covered with scars was beyond words.
When Ariel and others rescued him.
He immediately recognized Bert, who had visited Luolong City, and immediately guessed the identities of the fifth princess Ariel and Ju Bai.
However, before he could figure out why Her Royal Highness the Princess and the two Kingdom Generals appeared here.
He actually heard Her Royal Highness the Princess using the secret communication method to contact an "adult"!
And the young man leading the charge in front of him is obviously the "adult" in the mouth of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
What is the origin of this guy who can make a princess of a country call him "sir"?!
