Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 249

"Humanity……?"

The goblin on the opposite side looked even harder when he heard his identity.

"Another parasite came!"

"Get him out of here!"

"Yes, yes, drive him away! Don't let him in!"

"Don't be fooled, he can't be a human being! There is only the abyss devil behind that passage, and he must be a devil in disguise!

I've heard that the abyssal devil's favorite thing is to confuse people's hearts! "

"Ok?"

The fierce reaction of the goblins was a bit abnormal, and Cheng Shen vaguely guessed something.

Not explained yet.

A senior-looking goblin stood up on the opposite side, lowered his voice and shouted at the others:
"What are you fighting for! Don't be afraid to let him hear! He can even block the attack of Elder Gass, even if he is not an abyssal devil, he is very powerful! And we need to find out what is behind that passage!"

"The ancestor told us before his death that once the passage is opened, the end will come! But more than 700 years have passed, and only those humans have been behind the passage! We have never known anything about it!"

"..."

After some quarreling, the goblins calmed down.They were still uneasy about Cheng Shen's appearance, but they felt more disgusted and repelled.

Cheng Shen could tell that what they were rejecting was his own identity.

rather than himself.

just like.

What a hateful thing a group of humans once did to them.

"Let go of my daughter first!"

The goblin who was blocked by the magic shield pulled his neck and roared.

"I didn't hurt her."

Cheng Shen calmly explained, he put down the female goblin in his hand, and slowly sent her forward with a magical force.

This scene.

Let the tense expressions of the goblins ease a little.

"Human... you came from that passage, can you tell us what is on the other side of the passage?"

asked the older goblin.

Cheng Shen thought for a while, and said ambiguously: "Disaster and salvation."

"what?"

The goblins looked at each other.

Cheng Shen shook his head, but did not answer the question directly. He was not sure about the situation of these goblins, but from the current situation, it could be inferred that they were probably descendants of the slaves who were sealed in the mine.

But so long passed.

They may have long been accustomed to life in the cave and do not want to go out.

Moreover, the moment he discovered their goblin identities, Cheng Shen was already thinking about how to absorb them into his territory.

He is currently short of talents in scientific research.

Gunpowder Workshop,
Shenjifang,
They are all high-end buildings.

However, due to the fact that he has never recruited a special research unit, the research progress of these two buildings has been very slow.If this group of goblins can be recruited into his territory, it will greatly fill this gap.

Provided that,

Can address the root cause of their rejection of their human identity.

"Do you want to leave here?"

he asked directly.

"leave?"

The goblins immediately became agitated. The older goblin knocked the iron staff in his hand, then looked at Cheng Shen with his white eyes, and his tone was a little restless.

"We have been trapped in this dark underground since we were born, and we have only heard of the splendor and prosperity of the outside world. If we can, of course we want to leave here.

But we've tried countless times.

both failed.

And those attempts cost us dearly. "

He said seriously.

"Maybe the outside world is not as good as you imagined..." Cheng Shen thought of the weirdly polluted world, but he didn't say that. He just said, "As you can see, behind me is the passage to leave here."

"what!?"

"Impossible! You devil of the abyss, don't try to deceive us! There are only terrible monsters and pollution behind that passage!"

"I just said that he was the abyss devil in disguise! He revealed his truth before he even said a few words! He wanted to trick us all into that passage to die!"

"..."

The goblins were thrilled.

"Let me emphasize one point." Cheng Shen said seriously, "Devils are the products of hell, and there are only disasters in the abyss. If you want to talk about demons, you need to go to the dark place to find them."

abyss,

hell,

dark place.

In this chaotic world are three distinct planes.

The same reason.

Devils and demons are not the same race.

Devils are monsters brewed from the most negative emotions in the hearts of living beings, and they are really good at playing with people's hearts.But they are different from the demon lords who control blood and fire and wage wars everywhere in the dark land.

And the abyss spreads only plagues and disasters.

At least.

Arjieka has never heard of an intelligent race born in the abyss.

His earnest answer made the other party lose their voice, and the old goblin coughed lightly, and quickly said: "Actually, we have sent people to explore that passage, but the team members who participated in the exploration have become... "

He couldn't bear to continue talking.

"That's all I have to say."

Cheng Shen looked at them.

"Although that channel can lead to the outside world, normal people can't get through it at all.

but.

I think I can stand in front of you and I have already explained the problem. "

"Can you take us through there!?"

Someone asked immediately.

The older goblin also understood Cheng Shen's words, and his expression was very uneasy, but he suppressed the urge to ask, "We don't trust you about whether we can leave here, we have to ask the Temple of Sacrifice."

"..."

As soon as this word comes out.

Cheng Shen clearly felt that the atmosphere on the other side seemed to freeze.

All the goblins gritted their teeth, but looked around cautiously as if they were worried about being discovered.

"Worship Temple?"

He said a little strangely.

"The Temple of Sacrifice was built by humans who hid underground with our ancestors, and their descendants have also passed it down. They hold the key to the Demon Sealing Formation and always protect our safety."

He was afraid that Cheng Shen would not understand and explained to him in detail.

"I see."

Cheng Shen took a deep look at the other party.

With his wisdom, he couldn't tell that the existence of this temple is the root cause of goblins' hatred of humans.

The other party deliberately mentioned it, but it was not because of any pure thoughts...

"Then take me to meet the people in this temple, maybe I can persuade them to let you leave here."

he simply said.

Now that the root cause of the problem is determined, things are easy to solve.The meaning of the old man is very clear, he and the Temple of Sacrifice, they will listen to whoever wins the battle.

And Cheng Shen's idea is also very simple.

wow.

The layers of crystal walls in front of them automatically disperse into free elements.

Cheng Shen walked forward calmly, and the goblins on the opposite side took a step back subconsciously. Someone immediately threw a metal bracelet over, and then said vigilantly: "We can only trust you if you wear the magic ring!"

The old goblin immediately explained: "This thing will only temporarily seal your magic power and will not cause physical harm to you. We will untie it after we confirm that you are not a threat.

We were unable to confirm your identity and hope you understand our unease. "

What he said was kind.

Cheng Shen didn't respond, he raised his hand to pick up the magic ring on the ground, looked it over, and then put it directly on his wrist.

This thing does work.

For an instant.

Cheng Shen found that he could not perceive any elemental energy.

His mental power seemed to be shackled and unable to be used, and his magic level was directly restricted to the level of an ordinary person.

The expressions of the goblins on the opposite side suddenly relaxed.

But the next moment.

Bang!
A bang.

The metal ring worn on Cheng Shen's wrist was directly shattered into countless pieces.

"This thing is useless to me, just go."

Cheng Shen said expressionlessly.

The goblins pulled out their weapons in a moment of nervousness, and the older goblin stood up quickly. He comforted the others, and the horror and fear in his eyes quickly disappeared, "We offended you, please come here."

Follow the directions.

Cheng Shen walked through a winding passage engraved with dense magic patterns.

"Who drew these formations?"

he asked casually.

"Uh..." Weiman hesitated for a moment, and said: "The original formation was arranged by the first generation of high priests of the Temple of Sacrifice, and it has been modified by more than ten generations of high priests... Don't worry, we won't use it to attack you !"

"Oh."

Cheng Shen said with the same expression.

soon.

The passage comes to an end.

Checked by several guards.

Cheng Shen left the temple specially built by the goblins for this abyss passage, and came to the area where they lived.

This is an extremely wide underground space. The cube-shaped stone houses are built step by step upwards, enclosing the entire living city in the shape of an iron barrel, and a towering temple is built in the center.

The huge orange ruby ​​is suspended on the top of the temple like the sun, radiating a cold light. The gem is carved with circles of spiral lines, turning from time to time, like eyeballs are constantly sweeping through the city.

"This is where we live."

Under the gaze of the eyeballs, Weiman's tone unconsciously lowered.

"It seems that you are not having a good time."

Cheng Shen said.

His gaze swept across the city unaffected by the gloomy sight. In those stone houses full of oppression and cold, he could see emaciated, stunted, and tattered goblins rushing about in a hurry.

There are also guards in armor patrolling the city.

Most are also goblins.

As for humans.

Cheng Shen searched for a long time before seeing one on the upper wall near the temple.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the temple. At first glance, he thought it was a complete replica of the temple in the Gargoyle Land.

Not just like.

It is a replica.

"Hey, it's good to be able to survive. After a while, when we enter the freezing period, I don't know how many people in the clan will starve to death and freeze to death."

Wayman sighed heavily.

"Living with underground food sources is really going to be an important issue."

Cheng Shen nodded.

He saw that a large area in the north of the city had been reclaimed into a neat farmland, and a kind of luminous plant was planted in it, which was probably their food, but it seemed that the yield was not optimistic.

"Originally our food was quite enough!"

Someone suddenly said indignantly.

"That's right! If it weren't for the damned humans asking us to hand over most of the food, many of our people wouldn't have died!"

"Silence!"

Wiman stopped their complaints just in time.

He pointed to the giant eye in the distance, and said in a strict voice: "The eye of omniscience is watching us! Do you want your relatives to be affected!"

"The All-Seeing Eye?"

Cheng Shen knew that Weiman was deliberately leaking information to him again.

According to his words, this giant eye seems to be able to monitor and monitor everything in the city at any time.

but.

Cheng Shen turned his head and glanced at the ubiquitous magic patterns.

He can naturally tell that the so-called all-seeing eye does not have the function of surveillance at all.

It's just a decoration.

It is actually those hidden formations that are really monitoring the city.

"It's the loss of being uneducated again."

Cheng Shen felt emotional.

but.

He didn't expose it.

Instead, he said: "Since you can build this underground area so gorgeously, why don't you try to dig outside?"

"Not allowed in the Temple of Sacrifice."

Viman said.

"Our place is the only safe area in this underground area. Whether you dig up or down, you will find terrible things... Maybe we have tried what you said, but they all failed in the end."

"understood."

Cheng Shen nodded.

He understood that of course it was not the helpless situation that Weiman said, but another deep meaning hidden in his words.

Maybe Weiman can't be sure, but in such a weird situation, anyone would suspect that the people who worshiped the temple are very likely to have mastered the power to control the pollution of the abyss.It's just that the painful experience made them dare not try.

Cheng Shen's arrival.

It also happened to be an opportunity for them to challenge the Temple of Sacrifice.

"Elder Weiman!"

"Elder Garth!"

After entering the city, Cheng Shen could hear greetings from time to time. The group of goblins who followed him had a high status in the entire group.

It's just that their clothes are not much better than ordinary goblins.

Cheng Shen swept across the numb and painful faces, frowning slightly, but Weiman didn't say anything, and Cheng Shen didn't speak until they saw a young goblin squatting on the ground in front of a stone house .

"Lam, how is your mother's condition?"

Wayman called softly.

The immature goblin raised his head, his face was covered with dirt, his eyes were full of pain and fragility, he shook his head blankly, and said a little afraid to look directly: "I don't know, Dad told me not to enter the house..."

"Oops!"

Weiman's expression changed immediately, he ignored Cheng Shen, hurriedly walked towards the stone house, and kicked the heavy door open with a bang when he came to the door.

"Brie, you stop!"

he shouted loudly.

As soon as the goblins around him rushed over, Cheng Shen also followed, and saw two thin goblins lying down and standing in the narrow and simple stone house, one of the male goblins was pointing a sharp knife at the other. people.

The strange thing was that Cheng Shen couldn't see pain on the face of the lying female goblin, only relief.

And Bree became panicked as the elders broke in.

"Wei, Elder Weiman, why are you here?"

He frantically hid the dagger behind his back.

Weiman seemed to be really angry, his gray-green skin turned red, "Are you crazy! I have strictly prohibited anyone from trading with the executioner of the sacrificial temple! How dare you do such a thing!"

"I, I... I don't want to! But the freezing period is coming soon and there is no food at home! Do you want me to watch Ram starve to death? And Lena has agreed to this matter! She allowed me to do this !"

Bree groaned with reddened eyes.

"what happened?"

Cheng Shen couldn't tell whether it was arranged by Weiman or other circumstances.
