Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 248 The Surviving Goblin

Most of the countless eyeballs that made up the pair of huge pupils were shattered, and black liquid flowed out, and the monster let out a painful roar.But when Cheng Shen was preparing for it to explode, its body suddenly shrank.

Not deflated.

In the middle of the mine is a mine shaft that leads deep underground.

This monster occupied the elevator built in the mine from the very beginning. When it was hit hard, it chose to run away immediately.

Cheng Shen was a little surprised.

Usually, only very intelligent enemies will make the move to flee in battle.

The monster in front of him looked chaotic, but he didn't expect his intelligence to be quite high.

But it can't escape.

Burning Blood Poison and Septic Blood Frenzy are continuous damage skills.

And after the petrified ancestor blew up, it created a large amount of blood mist in its body, providing sufficient energy for the two abilities to take effect.

not for a moment.

A kill prompt sounded in Cheng Shen's mind.

[Hint: Successfully kill the abyss host, experience +6100! 】

……

Bang!
Then there was a heavy landing sound in the mine shaft, accompanied by a faint rustling sound, as if countless feet were moving.

"It sounds deep enough."

Cheng Shen thought about it.

The elevator was corroded and dilapidated, and it must have been useless.

There is a wider unknown area under the mine, but if there are monsters of the level just now living.

Even him.

There is no benefit in rushing forward.

The environment of the mine severely limited his ability. Not only was his magic level unable to be used, but even his bright red form was also facing terrible erosion.

If he directly flooded the mine tunnel with blood river like before.

Then.

It wasn't the monsters in the mine that he needed to worry about.

It was the deformed pollution body formed after his own body was corroded...

A monster that only combines the two characteristics of abyssal plague and dark distortion is already quite difficult to deal with. If this monster has the characteristics of a blood demon, it will simply breed a terrifying Demon King Gu!
Shaking his head secretly.

Cheng Shen replaced the lightless candle that burned to the last eye in his hand, and gave an order to the petrified ancestors.

"Explore the other holes first."

Whoops!

The remaining 25 petrified ancestors spread out like birds and beasts, and rushed towards several cave entrances.

The scout guards floating aside followed a team and flew away.

The first thing to find out is the opening on the left, which seems to be a temporary rest area for miners, with a few rotten beds, and a few distorted monsters were killed by the petrified ancestors, dropping a few pieces of ore .

On the right is the excretory area.

There is a hole in the middle that leads to a poorly furnished canteen.

The miners who used to work here transformed the cave into a small living area.But the living conditions are visibly harsh, not like those prepared for normal workers, but like slave concentration camps.

"Huh? I found it."

suddenly.

Cheng Shen saw some unusual pictures through the scout guard.

He rushed over immediately, and in the depths of a cave, there was a naturally formed geological crack on one side of the wall.The widest part of this crack is only [-] centimeters wide, and it would be difficult for a dog to drill through.

But there are traces of magical fluctuations around this crack.

This ray of trace is quite faint, if it doesn't happen to be hallucination magic, and the scout guard happens to have the corresponding ability to break the invisible.

Maybe just ignore it.

after all.

Cheng Shen didn't bother to check the openings inch by inch.

"It's just a low-level hidden magic."

He observed it for a while.

Subsequently.

Then he mobilized his mental power to directly break the magic.

Boo!
There seemed to be an invisible barrier dissipating in the air, and the crack in front of him was still a crack, but at this time it showed two completely different colors.

One is the color of the stone.

One is more like dirt.

Cheng Shen stretched out a hand, and inserted it into the hardened soil as easily as cutting tofu, digging up parts of the soil of different colors little by little.

A hole large enough for a person to pass through is revealed.

call!
A cold wind gushed out of the cave.

But Cheng Shen gasped softly, every strand of air in this mine has been polluted, normal people can hardly even breathe.But the airflow gushing out of the cave actually contained a large amount of unpolluted air.

"refuge?"

He immediately directed the two petrified ancestors into the entrance of the cave, and then followed him.

Aljeka stayed here.

She was not allowed to continue to follow, on the one hand, because Arjieka's energy supplement also came from absorbing elements from the world, unlike Cheng Shen's core source, which could generate a steady stream of blood energy from the body.

Go deep into the mine.

It is a very dangerous behavior for her to run out of energy.

Furthermore, Cheng Shen should keep people watching the mine, so as not to let the monsters here go out and pollute the environment.

Whether it is the plague of the abyss or the distortion of darkness.

Any of these two factors appearing in the outside world will cause devastating damage to the surrounding environment!

The latter is fine.

And the pollution of the abyssal plague is not weaker than the strange spread!
A petrified ancestor with a scout guard on his shoulder ran wildly in front, and the gap gradually shrank and became narrower. However, traces of artificial excavation began to appear in some places, forcing the passage to be widened.

along the way.

Cheng Shen also saw some similar magic camouflage arrangements.

The level of these magics is not high, and they don't even have a decent formation. Basically, they can only deceive ordinary people, but it is this simple structure that gradually makes Cheng Shen's heart arouse.

"It is not arranged with energy crystals that can last for a long time. There are still people who are constantly maintaining these magics... there are probably living people inside!"

He deduced it through some details.

My heart suddenly vibrated.

soon.

The petrified ancestors carrying the "camera" at the front rushed out of the crack and entered a deep mine tunnel. The thick darkness immediately covered the vision of the scout guards, making them unable to see anything clearly.

"It's a formation!"

Cheng Shen quickened his pace.

He then came to the end of the crack, but the pervasive darkness couldn't block his vision, and a golden-red divine light flowed in his eyes, and the darkness in front of him was immediately decomposed into runes one by one, and restored to its original appearance.

"It's somewhat similar to the formation behind the temple...but it's essentially different."

Cheng Shen came to a conclusion at a glance.

The formation in front of me looks very similar to the large dark protective formation behind the temple, but experts can tell the difference at a glance.The structure of this formation is quite crude, and there are even many mistakes.

The two formations may have come from the same design.

Of the two people who can arrange it, one is definitely a master who is proficient in formation techniques, while the one in front of him is like a trial work of an apprentice.

For Cheng Shen.

It has no analytical value.

"It seems that those temple abandoners did catch a formation master, but he didn't play the role that the old man said."

In an instant.

In Cheng Shen's mind, he deduced a guess that was close to the truth.

The main reason is that he can be sure that all the formations in the temple were arranged by those unbelievers.

Maybe, they hadn't broken skin with the old man back then.

entrap it.

Rather than from the hands of this unknown array mage.

Therefore, the role of this formation mage is dispensable for the abandoned people of the temple.

Otherwise.

No trace of his existence will appear in this crypt...

Thinking room.

Cheng Shen had already waved his hand to break the formation in front of him.

A man-made passageway was revealed, this passageway was very low and narrow, like a dog hole, normal people had to shrink their bodies to pass through.

Fortunately, Cheng Shen can change his body shape at will.

got here.

The polluting elements in the air are already quite thin.

On the way, there were a few magic arrangements that could stop pollution erosion, and Cheng Shen didn't destroy them.

On the contrary, it was easily reinforced.

at this time.

It is also convenient for myself.

Whoa!

Half of his body directly shattered into flowing blood, which poured into the tunnel. Not long after, he heard a scream from the opposite side...

The poorly dressed girl hugged her arms and huddled in a corner, looking at the river of dark red blood flowing out of the passage, she was about to faint. The dazzling scarlet eyes filled her eyes, causing her body to tremble violently.

"Erosion, erosion is coming! It's scary!!"

"Ding Ding Ding!"

She was dazed for a while before suddenly remembering to ring the copper bell beside her.

But the fear in her heart had already made her legs limp into noodles. Even though the escape route was close in front of her eyes, the girl was unable to move forward. Looking at the river of blood rushing and approaching, she thought of her clansmen who had been eroded.

A trace of determination flashed in the girl's eyes.

Even dead.

It can't become that horrible look!

She closed her eyes and raised the rusty dagger cruelly to stab her neck!
"what?"

The excruciating pain that she imagined didn't come, but Mira heard a man's voice instead, and then, she felt a cold hand that didn't look like a living thing grasping her arm, and forcibly snatched the dagger from her hand.

"Are you a... person living in this crypt?"

Cheng Shen looked at the heavily corroded dagger in his hand, which could be seen to be well-made.

Then, he turned his attention to the creature in front of him, which was only half the size of a normal person. Although he had a human face, he could clearly see the difference.

Tell him intuitively.

The creature with only female characteristics in front of me is not human.

"Oh my god! The devil of the abyss has condensed into a human form!" Mira yelled when she saw him, and fainted from the scream, but a second before she fainted, she inexplicably gave birth to a kind of handsome devil. thoughts...

"Goblins...?"

At this time, Cheng Shen had already seen the girl's attributes through probing techniques.

"interesting."

His expression gradually became subtle.

Goblins are not uncommon in literary works with a fantasy world view. They usually serve as scientific experts. Cheng Shen never expected to find goblins in this filthy underground.

was thinking.

There were already chaotic footsteps in the wide passage in front of him.

"The brass bell was ringing. There must be something abnormal at the other end of the passage. Maybe it's the devil from the abyss coming!"

"Don't be crowed! The formation left by the ancestors can protect our safety, and no devil from the abyss can break through!"

"Who is guarding the abyss passage today?"

"It's Mira!"

"Ah! My precious daughter must not be in any accident!"

"..."

Keen hearing has allowed Cheng Shen to catch some voices from the opposite side.

He first checked the surrounding area.

At the end of this passage is a not-so-wide stone house, surrounded by seemingly complex and mysterious magic patterns, but in fact they have no effect at all, and the walls are carved with square grids for placing candles.

Cheng Shen reached out and picked up a candle.

Slightly surprised.

This candle is actually completely cast from spar, and the burning flame is also energy, and the precise inner structure made it impossible for him to see through it for a while.

And the only thing he was sure of was that the candle would last a long time.

Pick up a candle.

Cheng Shen lifted the short Mira up, and walked out of the passage.

Didn't get very far.

He saw a group of figures wearing rusty armor, or carrying weapons, or holding torches, running across the passage.

These creatures all fit the description of goblins in Cheng Shen's impression.

Gray-green skin.

Small stature.

Bald without exception...

Another point that caught his attention was the equipment worn by these goblins. Although the equipment seemed to be covered with mildew green rust spots due to lack of maintenance, the precise structure made them look like equipment.

It's more like a piece of retro handicraft.

call!
When the two sides met, they all stopped.

Cheng Shen saw that complex emotions such as astonishment, panic, fear, anger, and resignation to death appeared on the faces of the group of goblins opposite.

He was a little emotional for a while.

He is now.

Perhaps the ability to feel these emotions is almost lost.

What should I say?
He looked at the goblins in front of him and thought in his heart.

"Eat all..."

"Yes, it's the devil of the abyss!!"

"It's still an abyss devil that has condensed into a human form! It is mentioned in the ancestral training of the ancestors that this is the most terrifying existence in the abyss!"

"The passage left by the ancestors has been lost!"

"Mila!!"

"..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud noise on the opposite side. Most of the goblins showed fear, lost their fighting spirit, and moved back.

Only one goblin rushed forward, roaring.

"Let go of my daughter!"

hum!
He rushed up, and the rusty iron sword in his hand roared, and the azure light shone on the hilt, flowing along the grooves to the entire body of the sword like a wave, and the whole long sword trembled violently .

"You advise you to calm down."

Cheng Shen stretched out his hand.

however.

At this moment, the goblin on the opposite side was completely dazzled by anger and fear. Its thin body erupted with great power, and it rushed forward in an instant, and a sword glow directly slashed at the top of Cheng Shen's head!

Cheng sighed deeply.

Take two steps back.

When he raised his hand, layers of colorful crystals quickly condensed in front of him, like a wall separating the two of them. The elemental energy filled here has already allowed Cheng Shen to exert the power of magic.

But blocking the goblin's attack is not the goal.

Cheng Shen shouted: "Open your eyes and see clearly! Can the devil of the abyss use magic of other attributes? If I am a devil crawling out of the abyss, do I need to waste my tongue to communicate with you!?"

The sound echoed in the wide passage.

Deafening.

Immediately.

The goblins on the opposite side looked at each other.

"Then, what are you...?!"

Someone dared to ask.

"Of course I'm human! A human from outside! How long have you been trapped here?"

Cheng Shen asked casually.
