Chapter 200 Everyone has a firm ideal in their hearts
As the old goblin Mike continued to go deeper, the real appearance of the first floor of this research institute began to appear in front of everyone's eyes, and at a glance, although the space was not particularly spacious, it gave people a neat and clean and very planned feeling. There is not much clutter on the entire floor of the www.biquge.info Pavilion, surrounded by a spacious oval hall, surrounded by a honeycomb, divided into countless rooms by a metal plate, but the doors of each room are tightly closed, if it weren't for the fact that everyone already knew that there had been no one here for thousands of years, they would even think that the goblins who lived here were only out for a short time.
In the narrative of Hugh Hefnatus's video, old goblin Mike learns that the institute is divided into three floors, the upper, middle and lower floors, the top floor, which is the floor where they are now, is the living studio of the goblin researchers who live here, and this floor is mainly where Hugh Hefners's assistants live, and occasionally these assistants will write some more practical gizmos, so there is basically not much noteworthy here.
Walking along the neat corridor, through the spacious experimental hall, and then spiraling down the circular staircase, there is the second floor, the technical research laboratory, where some novel weapon blueprints and a full set of experimental equipment are stored, so that future generations can regain their knowledge without limitations.
The third level is the New Weapons Laboratory, where many whimsical and exotic weapons and energy reserves are stored, where Hugh Hefnatus and his assistants experiment with the destructive power of various new weapons, and where the only successful test of a new weapon is stored.
After introducing the entire Institute's functions, Hugh Hefnatus began to recount his reflections on the fall of the Goblin Empire, hoping that future generations would learn from it, which in eight words could be described as extravagance and complacency.
We used to be too arrogant, we thought we were the creator of the continent, arbitrarily enslaving other races on the continent, we thought we were very creative, but we didn't know the meaning of creation at all, creating life, feeling that it was growing in the body, and we would only create death and destruction. Lives in this world are always competing with each other and killing each other, everyone thinks that this is normal and justifies their actions, but there is no reason to justifiably kill other people, as long as the existence of taking life is carrying sins.
Only by better understanding of history can we be prepared to meet a better future, so I hope that the descendants of this institute can remember what I said, no matter what race you are, I hope you can remember what I said, don't slander other people's beliefs, respect others, respect other people's views, only if you learn how to respect others will you really get the respect of others.
If you come to be a descendant of the defeated goblin clan, I hope you can remember this even more, and don't go down the path of our destruction again, in order to make up for this, I have left some gifts for you in this institute, if you pass the test, you will get this gift, and it can be regarded as me making up for future generations, remember my words, there is a kind of fault in this world, called irreparable.
After listening to the old goblin Mike's relay, the expressions of everyone present were completely different, compared to the ecstatic appearance of the four humans present, the expressions on the faces of the two young goblins were extremely solemn. Unlike the greedy expressions on their faces just now, their faces now showed a contemplative color, but at this time, the two of them remembered their childhood dreams, and remembered that they had also determined to change the status quo of the goblin clan, but the cruel reality made them gradually lose themselves.
And now, after listening to Hugh Hefnatus's narration in the magical video, I learned that in this research institute, there is a genius scientist who has left behind the power to rise again for the descendants of the goblin clan, and the heart is like a pool of stagnant water is alive again. But when they saw the four tall Terrans standing in front of them, they felt endless remorse in their hearts, because they themselves had personally delivered this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to others.
The three places carefully thought differently, Tabra, who was holding the jade fan, could not control his body trembling with excitement, in his opinion, Hugh Hefnatus's words were all nonsense, the only thing that could interest him was the rumored weapon that could change the war, it was real, and not only that, but there was also a finished product stored in the third basement of this research institute.
As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't stop the excitement in his heart, he could finally do a big thing on his own, and finally he could prove to others that he no longer needed to live in the shadow of his brother, as long as he brought this weapon back to the organization, then he could rightfully become an important member of the organization.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to run to the level where the weapons were stored, but at the thought of some tests that he had to pass, he finally endured it, and then he glanced at the three men, but he walked a few steps quickly, stood in front of the old goblin Mike, and stared him in the eyes.
"Old fellow, I'm not interested in anything in this research institute, you can rest assured of this, this tattered Ben Gongzi is not eye-catching, you just need to take me to the layer where the weapon is stored, Ben Gongzi only needs that weapon, the only test item placed there, what do you think of this transaction?"
"You... Do you really, do you really just need that weapon? and you don't want anything else?" Hearing the words of Tabla, who was holding a fan, the old goblin Mike was also a little surprised, and stared at the former hesitantly.
"Why should I lie to you, the stuff here is of no use to me, I'm only interested in the weapon and its blueprints, so you can rest assured!" Tabla, who was holding an emerald fan, looked unconcerned in the face of the old goblin Mike's suspicions, waving his hand as if he really wasn't interested in anything other than this weapon.
After staring into the former's eyes for a long time, the old goblin Mike slowly opened his mouth and put forward his own conditions. "Okay! I can take you to the third floor, but I have one condition, my son wants to be with me. ”
"No problem, no problem, it's a small thing, as you wish!" to the old goblin Mike's request, Tabra, who was holding the jade fan, agreed without thinking.
Looking at the former, he waved to the man who held down the goblin Lucas, and the old goblin Mike seemed to remember something again, and continued to look at the harmless Tabla. "When you get that weapon and go out, you can't tell anyone about this place. ”
"It's no problem, I won't come to this ghost place if you ask me to come in the future!" Looking at the old goblin with a smile, Tabula, who was holding the jade fan, gently tapped the jade fan in his hand, and agreed without thinking about it.
After getting the assurance of Tabra, who was holding an emerald fan, the old goblin Mike led a few people to walk cautiously towards the inside of the iron corridor, at this time, although the entire corridor has been illuminated by the lighting stones on both sides of the wall, but just in case, everyone is still under the careful leadership of the old goblin Mike step by step along the depths of the corridor slowly.
It has to be said that Hugh Hefnatus is worthy of being a genius scientist in the early stage of the fall of the Goblin Empire, and he left the most precious things for future generations here, a complete set of experimental data and documents carefully shelved in the room, which are neatly arranged in the rooms on both sides of the corridor, although they can only be viewed through the door now, but in the near future, these things will definitely be able to play their due role and restore the goblin clan to its former glory.
Time passed in the careful exploration of the old goblin Mike, and it was not long before he led the group to the end of the first floor, spiraling down the staircase, where a metal door existed.
It didn't take much for the old goblin McDow to see at a glance what the metal gate was for, because the entrance to the second floor was also tightly blocked by the metal gate, and the cast metal looked like the same metal as the previous one.
With such a heavy metal gate blocking here, anyone will feel a sense of powerlessness in their hearts, and judging from the groove on the door, the metal book on the door must be the key to open this place. Seeing this, the old goblin Mike couldn't help but look back at the same thoughtful Tabla, who apparently also thought of the purpose of the Book of Inheritance from the groove in the door, and he waved his hand to one of his men, who nodded slightly, and turned back the way he had come from.
While waiting, Tabra, who was holding a jade fan, swayed to explore the room he had just seen, hoping to get something unexpected from it, while his other two subordinates were talking quietly with their heads down, pointing at the three goblins from time to time, judging from their expressions, it would definitely not be some nice words, after all, the reputation of goblins has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of all races on the continent for more than a thousand years.
While the three of Tabra were doing their own business, the old goblin Mike was not idle, he was tilting his head and pretending to read the goblin writing on the door, but he was actually talking to his son in a whisper.
"Wait a minute, when you get down to the second floor, I'll show you where the emergency exits are, and then I'll turn on the Institute's defense mode and leave them all here. ”
"Why, father, don't you already make an agreement with their leader? Why do you annoy these people, they seem to be very strong, we don't need to annoy them. The young goblin Bailey was puzzled by what his father and daughter were doing.
"You ask me why? Think about it, such an important place, will they let us all out alive so easily? This underground research institute has been buried for so many years, and today it is opened by us, don't you know how important the things here are? And if he had the legendary weapon, would he have let us out alive?" The old goblin Mike was speechless by a series of questions, and as he spoke, he peeked at the two humans who were talking in a low voice, and scolded in hatred. "Where have you gone with all that cleverness?"
"But... But...!" Faced with his father's questioning, the goblin Lucas thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a rebuttal, because it was indeed such an important treasure, and the four humans would not let them leave this mysterious research institute alive, but he didn't want to believe it. "So what are you going to do? What are you going to do if I run away?"
"Leave me alone, this place is destined to become my grave, I, your uncle and your grandfather have spent most of our lives for it, it is the hope of the goblin clan, as long as we have it, we goblins will change our current status, so I will not give him to anyone. Quietly glancing at the Terran youth who was searching the room, the old goblin Mike said categorically to his son.
"No, if you don't leave, I won't leave, this won't be your graveyard, we're going out together!" said Goblin Lucas categorically at his father's words.
"Listen, listen, my son, this is very important! Any one of these four humans can kill all three of us, provided that I don't help them get the weapon placed on the third layer, and once I help them open the door to the third layer and get the weapon, the three of us will be useless!"
"No, as long as we negotiate terms with them and be careful, we will be safe, and besides, how do you know that there will be a gate on the third floor?" Seeing his father say in such detail, the young goblin Bailey looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"If you want to learn a little more goblin script, you just won't listen to that magic image, haven't you heard a word? This place seems to be peaceful, but in fact, it is full of mechanisms, and every level has a location to open the mechanism and an escape route, as long as you are close to these places, I can guarantee your safety. In a tone of hatred, the old goblin Mike scolded his son mercilessly.
"What about Tuk, we can't leave him here, let's run away together when we have a chance!" Glancing at a stinking goblin standing alone, the young goblin Bailey looked at his father cautiously.
"No, someone has to stay and open the mechanism, and act according to my eyes in a while, it's best to take the kid out of the Tuk family, it's better to have him here, sooner or later, something bad will happen, and for the sake of old Tuk, he should be taken out. Seeing that his son had mentioned another person, the old goblin Mike looked at Tuk, who was eavesdropping with his ears pricked up, and commanded in a low voice.
However, at this moment, the entire hall suddenly shook violently, as if the ceiling was about to collapse, and then a rapid running sound came, and I saw that the subordinate who had just been sent by Tabra to fetch the Book of Inheritance embedded in the door, with the Book of Inheritance in his arms, ran back with a frightened expression.
At this time, his expression was extremely flustered, and after a cautious glance at the old goblin Mike, he whispered something in Tabla's ear in a nervous and hurried tone, and saw that he had an excited expression on his face, and the smile on his face disappeared suddenly after listening to his subordinates' narration.
Immediately, Tabra, who was holding a jade fan, walked angrily towards the old goblin Mike and his son. "You already knew that if you took down the Book of Inheritance, the door would be closed, didn't you?"
Angry, he pushed away the goblin Lucas, who was blocking the old goblin Mike, and Lucas, who was holding the jade fan, looked at the expressionless old goblin in a fierce tone and shouted loudly.
"Don't worry, young man, be patient, I'm not still here!" Faced with Tabla's questioning with the jade fan, the old goblin Mike looked extraordinarily calm. "And as long as we have the key, it's not hard to open the door again. ”
"Old fellow, don't put on a shelf with me as an elder, my son doesn't eat this, I said that if you dare to lie to me, I will let you know what you deserve, so now you have to accept the punishment!" "As he spoke, Tabra, who was holding a jade fan, waved his hand to a subordinate standing aside, and saw this subordinate take a step forward and grab the shoulder of the young goblin Lucas, easily knocking him to the ground, and then quickly pulled out a dagger from his waist and stabbed it into the arm of the goblin Lucas in the exclamation of the old goblin.
"No! You can't do that! You can't do that! We have an agreement!"
Amid the hysterical roar of the old goblin Mike and the screams of the goblin Bailey, he crawled to his son's side, covering the bleeding wound with his hand.
"Remember, old fellow, this is the end of your disobedience, understand! If you dare to call the shots, I will mark his other arm. "Slammed the Book of Inheritance on the body of the old goblin Mike, and Tabla, who was holding the jade fan, threatened loudly with a fierce face.
In the face of his threat, compared to the old goblin Mike, who became expressionless after a brief panic, the smelly goblin Tuk seemed even more frightened, and he tried to get away from the place that suddenly became tense, but it was all in vain.
After a simple bandage, under the watchful eye of Tabra, who was holding an emerald fan, the old goblin Mike used the Book of Inheritance in his hand to open the door to the second floor, just like he had just done before, but this time the scene presented to everyone was a different scene.
Different from the neat room on the first floor, the entire second floor is covered with independent and transparent laboratories, where a complete set of experimental equipment is placed, and there are all kinds of experimental utensils that have never been seen before, which makes people dazzled. It is rumored that the alchemy of the Goblin Empire is unmatched, they can create all kinds of invisible poisons that kill people, sometimes even the slightest mistake of the dragon will be poisoned by this poison, although it is not fatal danger, but the poison that can make the dragon unable to move for a period of time is a deadly poison for other races.
And what is presented to everyone at this moment is the necessary equipment to make these terrifying poisons, of course, these tools can not only make poisons that kill, but also make good medicines that save people.
This kind of alchemy potion can ensure that one's life is worry-free even if there is no water type magician and light type magician, and only one small packet of these potions can save one's life, which can greatly improve the combat ability of the army.
And these things come from these strangely shaped glassware in front of us, but there are no materials for experimentation with these vessels, and I don't know if those precious materials have disappeared in the long river of time, or if Hugh Hefnatus has not left them behind at all.
Walking through the second floor, everyone came to the door leading to the third floor, which was basically similar to the first two, but the only difference was that the groove of this gate for the Book of Inheritance appeared to be larger than the first two, the size of two Book of Inheritance.
But at the suggestion of Tabra, who was holding the jade fan, the old goblin Tuk carefully placed the Book of Inheritance into the groove on the door, but no matter how he placed it, the groove on the door was always much larger than the Book of Inheritance, which felt like it would take two books to open. Faced with this unexpected situation, everyone present was shocked, and Tabra, who was holding a jade fan, kicked the door a few times unwillingly, turned his head angrily, and stared at the old goblin Mike standing by the door.
"What the hell is going on? What is written on the gate?"
"It says on the door that you'll need the real key from here!" Pointing to the goblin text on the door, Old Goblin Mike replied with a blank face.
"What is the real key?" Seeing the old goblin say this answer, Charles, who was holding an emerald fan, couldn't help frowning, his face full of distrust.
"I don't know, I'm just getting this book, and I haven't had time to study it carefully. Innocently spread his hands, saying that he didn't know anything about it.
"Damn, damn it, it's really unlucky, why is it just the last step!" Tabla, who was holding the jade fan, angrily kicked the metal door a few times, and then walked to the side of a few of his subordinates, as if he had accepted this ending, and saw that he kept commanding something and the three subordinates kept nodding.
But from his eyes, the old goblin Tuk saw a trace of unease, only to see him move his body to the side of the gate without moving, and glanced at his son who was holding his shoulders to the side, and the two slowly leaned towards the dazed and ignorant goblin Tuk.
However, just as one of Tabra's subordinates noticed the two of them, and just as he was about to give a warning, the old goblin Mike smashed down a goblin text next to the gate with his fist.
There was a muffled click!
Immediately, the metal wall on the side of his body suddenly cracked a small hole, and from time to time a cool breeze blew out of this small hole, and everyone looked at this sudden scene, and they were suddenly stunned. At this moment, the old goblin Tuk pushed his son into the exit, and at the same time he threw the book of inheritance in his hand into it, and waved vigorously to the goblin Tuka, who was dazed and didn't know the smell, and motioned for him to hurry over.
But it was too late, as Tabla's men rushed past the goblin Tuk like cheetahs, heading straight for him, while the other two rushed towards him as quickly as the former. Looking at the hideous faces of several humans, the old goblin Mike knew that if he hesitated, no one would be able to escape, and looked at his son, who kept shaking his head and begging for himself, crying out in tears, a trace of cloudy tears flowed from the corner of his eye.
I saw him firmly let go of the hand that pressed the word, blocked the front of this exit with his thin body, turned his head to look at the distorted Tabla and smiled, and pressed another word hard, and then this narrow exit slowly closed under the gaze of the crying goblin Lucas, completely isolating him from the old goblin Mike.
With his back against the metal wall that had been re-closed, the old goblin Mike had no choice but to do so, because there were so many things involved in this research institute that he would not let it fall into the hands of anyone other than the goblins.
As the metal wall closed again, Lucas, the goblin in the narrow passage, pounded the wall hard, but no matter how much he tried to hit the completely closed wall, it was a futile move. Because this passage has been completely closed, after the heart-rending shout, he can only accept this cruel reality, at this time he knows what it means to be painful, and some things will only know how to cherish if they are lost.
After a brief period of loss, the goblin Lucas touched the book of inheritance that he had bought with his father's life, and threw it into the darkness, listening to the echo sound of the book of inheritance rolling on the ground, a human face suddenly flashed through his mind, and then he fumbled to retrieve the discarded book of inheritance, and staggered forward along the dark narrow passage.
However, as he ran along the dark tunnel, the faint thud came through the walls, but the anxious goblin Lucas didn't have time to think about why it was in this tunnel, and he had only one thought in his mind now, and that was to rush back to Berkeley as fast as he could.
Now the only person who can save his father is that person, Lucas, who is groping his way through the dark passage, is now full of this idea, to find the human who sent this book of inheritance during the day, and among the people who now know the existence of the book of inheritance and its function, the least possessive person is this human.
All the way forward, I don't know how long he ran in the dark tunnel, there was a muffled bang, and Lucas, the goblin who was thinking about things, crashed into a metal wall unsuspectingly, and immediately made his eyes glow.
Squatting in place, rubbing his head with both hands, he didn't have time to complain about why there was a wall in the tunnel, groping in the dark for the wall in front of him, Lucas was surprised to find that the wall in front of him turned out to be a small metal door.
On top of it, Lucas could still find a small handle, and he vigorously broke the handle, and the metal wall opened in response, groping for the damp soil covering it, and the goblin shell used his hands to vigorously scrape the dirt in front of him, and it was not long before a fresh air mixed with the smell of earth, sulfur and grass poured into the tunnel that had been sealed for a long time.
However, just after he escaped from the tunnel, the metal door behind him closed automatically, and then he felt a violent shaking of the mountain under his feet, and there was a muffled sound from the tunnel he had just escaped, and when he pushed the metal door again, he found that the small door used to escape could no longer be opened, and the metal door could only be opened inside, and he gave up this action after he kicked the metal door angrily a few times.
The wind at night is so cold, especially the mountain wind at night is even more cold, it seems to make people feel the early arrival of winter, the embarrassed Lucas raised his head and looked up at the starry sky, slowly stood up straight, observed the surrounding environment, and couldn't help cursing in a low voice, the night wind blew, so that he involuntarily shrunk his neck and observed his current position.
What he didn't expect was that the escape tunnel actually led to a wooded hill at the foot of the eastern foothills of Ajafarah Jocco, which was quite a distance from Berkeley, and if he continued east, he would reach the border of the Republic of Desarethinu.
Looking up at the east that was already white, the goblin Lucas couldn't help but feel anxious, there was no time to delay anymore, and only a non-stop rush could get back to Berkeley before dawn.
At this time, his heart was very uneasy, remembering what his father had told him in the afternoon, that the Krazer and the two would leave here through the magic teleportation array, so he had to get there earlier than the two, and he had to find a way to persuade the Krazer and the two to help.
Thinking of this, Goblin Lucas couldn't help but regret it in his heart, he slapped himself hard, why didn't so many people steal it, but came and stole the money bags of these two people, and now the originally simple things became much trickier. However, when he touched the money bag that Tabla had thrown at him, he felt an indescribable sense of steadiness in his heart, and in his opinion, so many gold coins were enough for the Frazer duo to accept his pleas.
Just after Lucas, the goblin, escaped safely from the tunnel, Mike, the old goblin who remained in the institute and had no time to escape, had been caught by Tabla and his men, and slammed to the ground.
Tabra, who was holding the jade fan, no longer had the sense of calm just now, and at this moment he was anxiously pressing the goblin words that the old goblin Mike had pressed with his fingers, but no matter how he pressed it, there was no response, just when he reached out to grab the old goblin Mike who fell to the ground, the whole research institute shook violently, and suddenly a metallic voice appeared, repeating the same sentence repeatedly, and the cold voice echoed in the research institute repeatedly.
However, in response to this sudden situation, Tabla, who was holding the jade fan, suddenly looked around nervously, and then he picked up the collapsed old goblin on the ground and asked angrily.
"Old fellow, what the hell have you done, tell me quickly!"
However, in the face of the questioning of the almost crazy Tabla, the old goblin Mike behaved very blandly, he looked at the Tabla who had completely stopped screaming hysterically, no matter how much he coerced and lured, he didn't speak, and completely put on a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Fruitless in his threat, Tabla immediately gave up on getting an answer from the old goblin and instead asked about the goblin who was also slumped on the ground and smelly. "What the hell is this voice talking about, what the hell is this old guy doing?"
"Old... Old... Old Mike, I don't know what he did, I just know that this voice is saying that the institute has activated the defense system has been activated, and the relevant personnel are requested to prepare for evacuation. Holding back the fear in his heart, the stinking goblin Tuk finished his words intermittently.
"Damn, I know, you damn old fellow!" Charles, who was holding an emerald fan, kicked the old goblin angrily, grabbed his hair with his hand in annoyance, and kicked the old goblin again in annoyance.
"Childe, Childe, let's hide quickly! The weapon system is about to be activated, and I don't want to die yet!" The stinking goblin's body shuddered uncontrollably, and after the metallic voice died down, he struggled to suggest to the panicked Tabla.
"What? Then you don't hurry up and lead the way!" Hearing this, Tabla, who was holding the jade fan, suddenly scolded angrily.
"But I don't know where to go! I can only understand a small part of these goblin languages, which are so old, I really only understand a small part of them. At this time, the smelly goblin remembered that his father had asked him to learn the ancient goblin language, but he just didn't listen, and now he regrets it when he thinks about it.
"Stand up, old fellow, don't sit still, and say, what the hell is going on!" Hearing this, Tabla kicked the metal wall hard, and turned his head sharply, staring at the old goblin Mike with scarlet eyes.
"It's useless, you don't have to struggle, the defense system of this institute has been activated, no one can stop it, and the key to open the door, I have already asked my son to take it out, and all of you will be buried for me. Looking at Tabla, who had completely lost his temper, the old goblin Mike laughed happily.
"You're crazy, you're crazy! you're crazy!" Tabla lowered his arm as he stared at the laughing old goblin with scarlet eyes, knowing that the old goblin was determined to die, so he didn't leave even though he had the chance.
"Childe, Childe, if we can go back to the upper floor, we should be able to avoid the attack of the defense system! This is the rest room of Hefnatus's assistants, so we shouldn't be attacked!" Looking at Tabla, who had become desperate, the smelly goblin Tuk made a suggestion that was not a suggestion.
"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Seeing that the smelly goblin made such a suggestion, Tabra, who was holding a jade fan, could only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
Then, he pointed to the old goblin who was still laughing with his hand and commanded his men. "Bring this old fellow in, and I'm going to show him how I managed to destroy everything here, and I'm going to let him know that even if his son could get this institute, it would be an empty institute. ”
With that, Tabla kicked the old goblin again, put all the documents into the space ring in one gob, and then ordered his two subordinates to let them smash everything they could see, while he himself ran back to the upper level with the two goblins as fast as possible.
During this time, the old goblin Mack struggled to stop the actions of Tabla's two men, but the goblin clan's thin body could not be compared to humans, so he could only watch as Hugh Hefnatus left all the experimental equipment for future generations was smashed.
And at this moment, on the second floor where they were, countless black holes of weapons turned out of the ceiling above their heads, pointing at everyone present, and when they saw this, Tabla and his men didn't care about smashing the remaining equipment, and ran towards the road they came.
