Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

"Then I won't go down," Sylvia shook the red wine in her glass, "My benefactor has to stay with me. I'm afraid he can't beat me in close combat."

"Drivedo can't play or even attend, it will cause riots," Daniel glanced at the goblin. After so many days of getting along, he knew Drivedo's race, "Andre can fill this vacancy."

"But I don't know anything!" Andre was choked by the wine and said quickly, "I don't have the natural temperament of Sister Sylvia, nor do I have the courage to be shy. If I were to go to a place like Lajie, I would only embarrass everyone..."

"No, no, no, you won't embarrass yourself, and you must go." Hendricks looked at the young villager, "You go and tell them about your own experience, why you followed Ron, and how your life in the fantasy land is, all of which you have to tell them in person."

"You will be the most important reassurance for these two factions!"

What testimony can be more convincing than the oral testimony of a civilian living under the rule of Ron and his group about their strength, good and evil, and bias?

"Who will be the specific targets of the gladiatorial contest?" Ivy asked, "Individuals or groups? Beasts or humanoids?"

"We need to determine the rules so that we can allocate manpower."

"Oh, this is also where I plan to ask for your opinions," Hendricks rubbed his hands, "I asked the gladiatorial arena in Rose City and some people in the black market. Due to the activities of the goblin army, many monsters have been stirred up, so they have also reaped a lot of rewards."

"There are several ogres, a manticore and a shark lizard that have not been arranged for gladiatorial contests. I don't think the other monsters are shocking enough for them, so I didn't choose them."

"Or you can challenge the champions and trump cards of several gladiatorial arenas, but I doubt whether this type of gladiatorial contest can make them change their minds."

"We have killed a manticore," Sera said, "and that thing can fly, are you sure you can control it?"

"Generally, monsters used in gladiatorial contests will destroy their flying ability to ensure safety," Kang Stans said, "So it's still possible to prevent it from harming innocent people."

"That's even more boring - what about the ogres? How do you say that?"

"Three ogres, three-on-three duel," Hendricks took out a memo with the suggestions he collected, "Some council members seem to think that if you can defeat an enemy three meters tall and weighing nearly half a ton in a battle without a spellcaster, you have enough strength to survive in delusion."

"Nonsense," Ivy rolled her eyes, "Do we need them to judge whether we can survive?"

"I understand, I can accept it," Sera thought for a while, "What about the shark lizard?"

"Three to one, the shark lizard ran into their trap and was seriously injured. However, even so, it cost a lot to catch it alive, and there is always a risk of escape," Hendricks said, "I suggest you choose the ogres. Isn't the shark lizard still a little too cruel?"

As a "land shark", the shark lizard lives only to fill its stomach. They are irritable and greedy. They are not afraid of any creatures, and they don't care about the superiority or inferiority in numbers or strength. They will attack at any time without hesitation. They are the overlords no matter where they live. Rose City can actually catch such creatures. I am afraid that the price paid is not just "very big".

"Let me confirm, is this shark lizard beast still injured now?"

Hendricks seemed to misunderstand the barbarian's question: "Yes, but even so-"

"Then choose the ogre," Sera leaned back in the chair, "The shark lizard beast in the arena has no innate advantage, and it is injured, which is even more boring."

Is it because it is too simple? Hendricks finally understood what Sera meant.

"Then it's me, Sera, and Victoria, three against three," Ivy nodded, "Ron, you guys are responsible for persuading them."

"Ivy, is this really okay?" After Hendricks left, Daniel looked at his daughter worriedly, "That's an ogre, and Victoria can't use magic according to the rules."

"Don't worry, Uncle Daniel," Sera slapped Daniel on the back, and the congressman's eyes suddenly went dark, "We promise to bring your daughter back in one piece!"

"I should say this," Ivy curled her lips, "You are the one who is most likely to be in danger, right?"

"Life safety is the most important, and the rules can be broken for this," Ron told Victoria, "Use magic immediately if you can't beat them, understand? Sylvia and I will also support you up there."

The safety of companions is the top priority. One of the reasons why they attacked Carolina is that their safety is threatened, isn't it?

"Don't worry, I will definitely ensure their safety." Victoria is indeed the most reliable one. When she agreed, Ron felt that he was much more relaxed.

In the following days, Ron and the others were busy preparing to deal with all kinds of problems that might arise on the day of the banquet and the gladiatorial contest. In order to ensure the safety of Ivy and the others, Ron also enchanted a lot of small parts - in an emergency, these things should be able to save lives.

On the same day, Ron and the others arrived at Hendricks' mansion after adequate rest and preparation. There, Ron and the others also saw old Faber and his two sons as well as Fernando and his family. , Carlos slept with Fernando's fiancée, and old Faber testified to Hendricks some time ago. The old and new hatreds made their enemies extremely jealous when they met.

If they didn't both have to give Hendricks three points, the two families would have fought on the spot.

"It's full of gunpowder," Liya dressed up to attend today. Her unique elegance and grace of a high elf attracted the attention of a large number of guests from the beginning. However, she didn't even look at anyone else, even talking to her own daughter. When he saw it, all he could see was Daniel's figure, "They can't really fight, can they?"

"After all, he is a well-known figure in Rose City," Ivy glanced at them, "Compared with this, I am still more worried that they will make things difficult for Ron and the others in a while."

Although Fernando's family has not found out who the thief is yet, if the Faber family is on Ron's side, they may deliberately say the opposite.

"You don't have to worry about this, Ivy," Daniel straightened his collar, "I still have some experience as a member of Parliament: the final resolution is to count votes rather than requiring all members to pass it, so you don't need to please everyone and win over the centrists. That's enough."

"After all, those who are on your side will support you no matter what; those who are not on your side will be against you no matter what, right?"
