Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

"But this will put you both in danger!" Sylvia's eyes suddenly lit up, but then quickly dimmed, "Benefactor, I am very grateful that you are willing to lend a helping hand, but if this will If it puts you in danger, I’d rather not do it.”

"I, I thought about it again, maybe I was too impatient. As a necromancer, Henry's lifespan is naturally longer than that of ordinary people, but his research has also reached a bottleneck, and the golden wings in the future will be very limited; And I have more time to complete my revenge, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be now..."

"Maybe in a few more years, or ten years? It's okay to go after him when I'm sure of victory. By then, I won't need to bother you -"

Sylvia forced a smile and pretended to be temporarily relieved, but this could not deceive anyone, even Dreyfus could understand the insincerity of her words.

"Forget it Sylvia," Ron smiled at the vampire, "You said 'forget it for now'?"

"I'm afraid that's not possible. You just listened to Elden talk about Henry. Have you forgotten the reason why he mentioned him?"

"Uh, gem?"

"Exactly," Ron nodded. "There are still two keys to the holes on the amethyst slate that have not been found. He should be one of them. Now that I have the five gems and the slate itself, of course I want to collect the full set. 's out."

"If he has no quarrel with us, I don't mind paying a little price to buy it - although I guess this deal will most likely be blown - but since he is the slave owner, it's better to just get rid of him. Once and for all.”

"As for possible subsequent suspicions and accusations, I think we need some witnesses to help - since Carolina is also a part of the City-State Alliance, what do you think of the Rose Council?"

Ron's proposal was put forward at a regular meeting the next day, and there was almost no resistance. Ron's suggestion was recognized by the vast majority of people present. The remaining opponents are headed by Rurik - the first order from Purgatory is coming soon. Thinking that he may be the temporary main agent of the delusion and face a sex demon, the dwarf Just a little scared.

"I don't want to stay." Kalad saw Ron's gaze and sat on the chair with his hands on his shoulders, his big blue nose wrinkled, and his face was full of reluctance.

"Look, even Karad is not willing to face those guys in Purgatory! They are real devils, sir, you can't let me stay here alone!" Rurik was about to cry.

"Rurik, what nonsense are you talking about?" The hobgoblin warlord glared at the dwarf with dissatisfaction, "My soldiers need war! Cleaning up beasts and undead creatures in the delusional land is just a trivial matter, and it is not enough to satisfy them at all. Military needs for war!"

"This time Ron goes to Carolina is an opportunity. I can lead the army to camp in the wild. If Ron can't solve the problem within the city-state, then solve it from the outside!"

"The gem, the enemy, is just a necromancer. If he tries to resist my battle group, he will only end up being crushed into a pulp by a chariot!"

"As for the other slave owners, they'd better know..."

Before the truce with Carolina, Ron and the others considered reducing the size of Karad's army to avoid possible risks. It's just that after all, Kalad and Ron are not in a superior-subordinate relationship, so it's not easy to say this.

But the hobgoblin himself has more pressing needs than Ron. As the direct commander, Kalad knew very well how the morale of his soldiers was. Now that there were a lot of beasts and monsters to clean up in the Delusion Land, especially around the territory, his troops still had something to do.

But what about a few more months?

The army dominated by goblins is no better than the standing army of human elves and dwarves. Only real war can cultivate them, and training and standing guard are boring and meaningless tasks.

As for recruitment? This word is not yet in the hobgoblin dictionary, and he, Kalad, will become a laughing stock among the hobgoblins!

"It's best not to get to that point," Ivy glanced at the hobgoblin, "The Rose Council has already appeared once before, and we can't expect them to always be on our side."

"Are you preparing to go to war with the entire city-state alliance?"

"I don't see any harm." The hobgoblin was not afraid of this, but looking at Ron's expression, Kalad also knew that the possibility of this happening was very small.

"But it's good to have a little external pressure," Quist said with a smile. "Brother Kalad scared those bugs in the top brass of Carolina!"

"However, I think I should follow this time, mainly to solve problems within the city-state. I am also a veteran," "Tiefling" said, patting Carlos on the shoulder, "and bring this little guy with me." Guy, he has learned a lot of skills from me, and he should put them into practice!"

"Brother Rurick, I'm sorry!"

"Carlos, I don't remember that I studied with Seymour before?" Ron glanced at the young man. During the delusional training, the young man's sharpness had weakened a lot, and he no longer looked like that A dandy young man who went beyond friendship with someone else's fiancée and beat her up in the street.

"I only taught him the fighting skills, the rest is all thanks to Brother Quest," Zhuo Er chuckled, "even I am his student."

"The underground environment is very different from the surface," Quest explained, "Carlos will definitely be active in the city in the future. Whether he returns to Rose City or here, my mediocre skills can be used in a wider range of fields."

"As for the practice of monks, I would like to teach, but unfortunately..."

"I don't have the concentration and 'understanding'," Carlos smiled and didn't seem to take it to heart, "Brother Quest also asked me to recite scriptures, which is too boring ! "

While several people were laughing, Zhuoer glanced at Sylvia, and after a moment's hesitation, he turned to Ron: "My benefactor, can I go with you on this operation?"

"After all, I have some enemies, three to be exact."

Victoria's face was a little tense: "Seymour, it's not that I oppose your revenge, but isn't this a bit too much? This is simply a provocation to the law!"

"Even if it's just to kill that one necromancer, we need to consider Carolina's attitude, plus three more?"

"It's better not to have the kind of laws in Carolina," Ivy snorted, "Bad order is worse than no order."
