Chapter 185: If you make a promise, you must work hard to fulfill it
As if looking at Professor Rabinowitz with a changed face as if guilty, Kreser's heart became uneasy, this was the first time he had confronted the old man since he was a child, and it was also the only time, and it was also the first time he had confronted the old man for the decision he had made, so that he could not think in his heart.

As if deliberately diverting the subject, Kratzer brings up one of several questions that have been buried in his mind for a long time.
"Professor, can you tell me about the Goblin Empire? Is the former goblin clan really so powerful that it overwhelms many races on the continent? Why do the goblins I have encountered now have a weak body like a child, not thieves and beggars, so that now goblins have become synonymous with obscenity and shamelessness, and I have never heard of any powerful characters appearing, and the legendary goblin alchemist master has only seen it in books. ”
Apparently Kraser's careful thinking could not be concealed by the wise old man, who glanced at the former, rubbed his fingers lightly against the edge of the empty bowl, as if in memory, and waited a little before whispering.
"Okay! Since you want to know so much, then I'll explain to you in detail the former overlord of the continent, the goblin clan!"
With that, Professor Rabinowitz reached out and tapped the empty bowl, motioning for Kratzer to pour himself a glass, and after he took a sip, his deep voice told Kratzer the heavy past that had been sealed for a long time.
"We human race often claim to be the most intelligent race on the continent, but in fact, the most intelligent race on the continent is actually the goblin race. Don't look at the current goblin clan has neither magicians nor warriors, as early as thousands of years ago, they enslaved all the races on the continent, including the proud dragon, and the kind of magic rough stone in your hand is the source of their power to maintain their rule, but the goblin clan because of its rise, but also because of its extinction. ”
"I'm sure you've been in contact with this kind of spar for a long time, so you also know how difficult it is to extract the power contained in this magic primordial stone! Except for the powerful flesh of high-level demonic beasts, no race can withstand that kind of violent power, so they can only use that kind of magic rough stone to increase their own strength. ”
"However, these unsolvable problems in our eyes have been perfectly solved by the goblin clan thousands of years ago, who can extract the huge power contained in this magic rough stone at will, and apply this power to all aspects. At the height of the Goblin Empire, a massive fighting machine was created, which was called Sald, the full name of which is the Metal Mechanical Guardian of Sald's various mixed magical powers, and it is worth mentioning that its power source is this magic rough stone. ”
"Salde, are you a Selder who is known for being good at hand-to-hand combat?" Krizer blurted out a name as if he remembered something.
"Hehe! You are talking about the Sald, that's where it comes from!" Professor Rabinowitz explained.
"Can you imagine what race on this continent you have the impression that there is no other race on this continent that can compete with the dragons in terms of physical strength?"
Pointing to his empty wine bowl, Professor Rabinowitz motioned for Kreiser to fill it for himself again, took a small sip of the mellow-smelling golden liquid, closed his eyes and savored it, waiting for Kreeser to scratch his ears and fidget before slowly speaking.
"The answer is this Thald Multi-Hybrid Magical Metal Mechanical Guard, and the goblin clan with this Sald Multi-Mixed Magical Metal Mechanical Guardian can compete with the dragon even if they are physically weak!"
"But there is no doubt that this is the power of wisdom, this is the power of magic, and it is also the root of the strength of the goblin clan, but this powerful combat tool was destroyed in the final battle, and almost all the drawings on this aspect were burned in despair by its last ruler, which is one of the reasons for the decline of the goblin clan. ”
"And the goblin clan not only dominates on land with this kind of combat tool, but even in the sky, they also have a flying machine that is not inferior to those flying monsters that rule the sky. If you've heard of it, it's the Zeppelin known as the Overlord of the Skies, which can fly in the sky and compete with flying monsters with the Goblins' special weapons. ”
Seeing Krezer's face of disbelief and surprise as his mouth opened wide, Professor Rabinowitz threw the empty wine bowl on the table, and continued as if he had drunk too much. "If you want to see this kind of zeppelin, you can go to the United Principality of Conyatugai and the Republic of Desarareshinu, although they can't reproduce the complete zeppelin, but they can imitate the unarmed zeppelin, which they use as a means of transport and transportation. ”
"Led Zeppelin? I often hear from bards about this kind of flying machine that can soar through the sky, but I didn't expect to see it in these two places, and I can't wait to see it now. After getting this accurate fact from the mouth of Professor Rabinowitz, Kreizer rubbed his hands excitedly, he had heard of Zeppelin Zeppelin, but he had not had the opportunity to see it, and now it seemed that he could not wait for a moment, so he was going to these two places to see this new thing.
"My child, you have to eat bite by bite, and you have to do things one by one, and there are many interesting things on this continent that you can't imagine, so it is a good choice for you to choose to leave your father's protection. Gently tapping at the Book of Inheritance on the table, Professor Rabinowitz agreed with Krezer's choice to leave his father's side and venture out.
But then he stared into Kraser's eyes and asked again. "After what I have just said, are you still ready to deliver this book of inheritance to the hands of the client, it should disappear forever, and never appear in the eyes of the world again. ”
"No matter how many times you ask, my answer is yes, Professor Binch Rabinowitz, and I will send this Book of Inheritance in its entirety to the place where it was entrusted, and I am not interested in knowing what it will be used for. Under the aggressive gaze of Professor Rabinowitz, Kreizer did not change his words, and he gave the same answer without thinking.
"Is your commitment more important than peace on the mainland?"
"Do you want to watch the peaceful continent rekindle the flames of war?"
"Are you going to watch it happen for the sake of your promise?"
But in the face of Krezer's stubborn choice, the benevolent Rabinowitz suddenly seemed to transform into a majestic emperor, and his voice seemed to be able to penetrate into the depths of the human soul, and his questioning became more and more severe each time, and his voice became louder and louder each time, so that in the end, even Thanatos, who was drunk and unconscious on the table, swished to his feet, holding his little head and trembling, and from time to time through the eyes behind his little paws, secretly glancing at the two people facing each other in the tense atmosphere, with his not-so-bright little head, obviously not understanding what was going on between the two。
However, in the face of Professor Rabinowitz's louder questioning, Krezer's determined eyes also became blurred, as if he had lost his way for a while, lost in the deafening questioning voice of the old man.
Indeed, Professor Rabinowitz's sharp words were like a sharp sword piercing Kreeser's heart, and Krezer's heart could not afford to conceal the slightest hint in this sharp questioning, and he could not help but re-examine whether his heart was really as faithful to his promise as he himself said.
But when his misty eyes left the Book of Inheritance, his resolute expression gradually became confused, and watching the change in the former's expression, Professor Rabinowitz's face appeared with a hint of relief, relief and a hint of disappointment. At this time, he felt that his teaching was not in vain, but he was a little disappointed that Krazer had changed his decision so easily, and he knew that Krazer was now in a dilemma.
Professor Rabinowitz did not press again, he sat there quietly and waited, waiting for the children he had taught to find his heart.
For a while, the whole room was silent, only the sound of Kraser's heavy bellows-like breathing could be heard, and even the little Tana, who had been restless, seemed to feel the confusion in Krezer's heart at this moment, and he lay quietly on the table and didn't dare to gasp, just flicked his little tail restlessly.
As time passed, Kraser's confused eyes gradually became clearer, and it didn't take long for him to suddenly look up at the old man who had been staring at him, waiting for him to make a choice, took a deep breath, and his hands clenched into fists and released them again.
"My child, what is the choice that tells me now?" At this moment, Professor Rabinowitz seemed to change from a majestic king back to the kind old man Kreizer was familiar with.
"My choice will not change, no matter how much you persuade me, I will send this book of inheritance to Old Jack's distant relative in Berkeley, although I don't know if this book is as important as you say, but I believe that Old Jack must trust me 100%, he will give me this important commission to complete, in this case I can't live up to his trust in me. ”
After saying everything he wanted to say in one breath, Kratzer also lowered his head deeply, not daring to look at the old man sitting across from him looking at him, waiting for him to make a choice.
"Even if this is really the book of inheritance of the goblin clan, can it really break the peace of the continent with this book? If this is the case, then such a peace is too cheap!"
After listening to Krezer's stubborn answer, Professor Rabinowitz sat down in his chair a little depressed, only to see him cover his face with one hand and his shoulders constantly shaking, and a low and loud laugh sounded from his mouth, louder than louder, Kreiser could even feel the whole small building trembling, and the falling wall ash showed Kreiser the amazing power contained in the laughter of the white-haired old man.
Looking at Professor Rabinowitz who let out a deafening laugh in front of him, Kreizer felt strange for a while, the thin old man who had always given him an amiable impression, this thin and short body, could contain such a powerful power, in this loud laughter, Kreiser heard a trace of desolation, a trace of heroism and a trace of relief, and it didn't take long for the old man's deafening laughter to gradually stop.
"My child, you are very good, you really did not disappoint me! You should follow your heart, follow the direction of your heart, do not hesitate, do not hesitate, do not listen to the persuasion of others, your heart is your best guide!" After the laughter, Professor Rabinowitz's wise eyes now bloomed like a sword, and the old man with a relaxed expression seemed to Kreiser as if he had been relieved of some burden. "You're right, I've been obsessed with this false peace for too long, humanity has now followed in the footsteps of the goblins, it's time to wake up, the lessons of more than a thousand years are enough for the goblins to remember the mistakes they have made, and there is one thing that must involve them. ”
"Don't you force me anymore!" looked at the white-haired old man in a good mood, and the nervous Krazer looked up at him and asked cautiously.
"I have never forced you to do anything, my child, since you have chosen to take risks, you should be firm in your heart, you must know that along the way you will encounter a lot of setbacks and tests that pierce your heart, and there are things that subvert your perception and wait for you, if you don't have firm perseverance, you will quickly lose yourself. Reaching out and grabbing Thanatos, who was stealing wine and drinking, Professor Rabinowitz held him to his chest and gently scratched his cold scales, Thanatos shook his little head with half-squinted eyes in comfort. "However, once you can stand out in these tests, you are qualified to step into the ranks of the truly strong on this continent, you remember my words, child, the timid will not be able to achieve great things, only by strengthening your heart and not wavering, so that you can achieve something, otherwise you will be like most people running around mediocrely. ”
"Put everything away and get ready to rest! it's not too early, I'll keep your room for you, remember my child, the door is always open for you." Professor Rabinowitz, who was in a good mood, looked at Krazer and waved his hand lightly, motioning for him to go downstairs and rest.
He bowed respectfully to the old man, and then Krezer grabbed Tatosna, who was still sneaking in to steal wine, and walked downstairs to his own room, the room where he had lived for many years.
