Chapter 281: I have to fight for face
Losing and losing become natural, although the Second Goblin Empire has not reached the realm of hob meat that is taken for granted and is not afraid of losing completely, but the goblin bosses, including the Goblin Emperor, also have no illusions about solving the human exiles in the short term. Everyone was disappointed and disappointed, but having said that, the review process that should be taken was still an essential link, so the unlucky military chief was called to the goblin emperor to listen to the instructions.
"Alright! You've lost again, look at the backlog of paperwork, it's a plea from the tribal elders to impeach the military for corruption and incompetence. β
Looking at the thick stack of paperwork piled up on the wide table, the chief of the military department couldn't help but be ashamed, the loser has no human rights! At this moment, it could only endure the strange contemptuous gazes and those silent but harsh sarcastic words thrown around it, and lowered its head and said:
"I'm sorry to disappoint Your Majesty."
Seeing this, the goblin emperor with complicated eyes sighed helplessly, he patted a stack of papers, and said to himself:
"It's hard to eradicate the pest of Will Needham from a frontal battlefield, so Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, I think the military department should have other plans, right?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. We do have other alternatives, but they may damage the glory of the Empire......"
Hearing this, the old goblin emperor didn't even raise his eyelids, and the more he reached the upper echelons of society, the more clear he was in his heart, shamelessness was the norm, benevolence, righteousness, morality, laws and regulations were all said to others, was that a rope used to restrain the ruler? It's so naΓ―ve. Immediately, the Goblin Emperor sneered and teased:
"Are you saying that successive defeats will not detract from the glory of the Empire?"
When the commander-in-chief of the military department heard that the wind was wrong, he didn't even dare to raise his head, and said on a donkey down the slope:
"Of course not, Your Majesty, you mean?"
"I look forward to hearing about Will Needham's unexpected death as soon as possible."
"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor, I promise it will happen soon."
Some people have hypothesized that the old world has gradually transitioned from the ancient era when gods and demons were rampant to the modern society where material power is the first and the supernatural power is not obvious. Although the new world is also in the withering period between the two magic tides, the situation is much better than the old world after all, at least the situation will not appear that the guy who is so tired that the cerebral blood vessels are about to burst to bend a spoon will dare to call himself a superpower master.
The horrors hidden in the ancient grotesque myths and legends have not been lost in the river of time, and if you are willing to look for them, they will be turned out of some remote corner of the New World.
The gods are terrible monsters born from the primeval era, and their origins are different, some are freaks born by accident by intermarriage between gods, some are biological weapons created by divine power, and some are not clear about their backgrounds. The only thing they have in common is that their power is extremely terrifying.
"Tick! Tick! Tick ......"
The slow dripping water from the top of the cavern fell into the small puddle below, revealing a little silence in the silence, and this stalactite-strewn cavern was filled with only naturally growing glowing moss that provided a faint light, and if a normal person was locked up in such a place, he would be crazy if he stayed for a week. Needless to say, walking in such a terrifying claustrophobic environment, those goblin soldiers who never knew what fear was, couldn't help but show fear in their eyes, this place is quite suitable for use as a tomb, and no living person will have a good impression of this place.
"Are you here to play with me?"
A fluctuating voice suddenly sounded, and the goblin soldiers reflexively drew their weapons, and the goblin officer at the head stopped them and said in a loud voice:
"We are emissaries sent by the Second Goblin Empire, asking for a deal with you."
"Deal? Hahahaha...... I don't need to trade! β
When he heard this voice, he became more and more crazy, the goblin officer swallowed his saliva, his mood was extremely nervous, it was too dangerous to deal with a madman, and the other party was completely unreasonable!
"Virtual Godhead! The condition of the transaction is the virtual godhead. β
I felt dizzy for a while, and the goblin officer barely supported himself to open the hole cards before the other party made a move, according to the orders of the military department's top brass, as long as this step was completed, the rest of the things did not need to be considered too much.
The chip given by the Second Goblin Empire is not comparable to ordinary treasures, it can be called the first-class goblin First Empire of the New World's professional death masters, and in their last crazy days, it can really be said that they have played with countless things, far more than the top death project of biochemical transformation.
The outlaws who have always dared to weld detonators and saw light bulbs are 100% accustomed to eating raw rice, do goblins care about a few more dead items on a piece? The answer is of course not. The so-called virtual godhead is a failed attempt by the goblins to become gods with their entire racial consciousness, and from a theoretical point of view, after the success of this plan, the entire goblin race will collectively jump to godhood. Even the gods of the lowest-end counterfeit and shoddy products are not mortal at best. actually set out such crazy goals and began to operate in a serious manner, which shows that the First Goblin Empire, which was indulged in the omnipotent aura of alchemy civilization at that time, had reached the point of madness in its death.
This kind of copycat virtual godhead is naturally not comparable to the real godhead, but the achievement of refining alchemy is underestimated, and it is also a superficial appearance, the value of this thing is unimaginably high for mortals, and it is extremely tempting for the mysterious object that the goblin officer is trying to convince.
Sure enough, hearing the name of the virtual godhead, the voice that had originally fallen into a state of madness seemed to have regained a glimmer of clarity, and asked impatiently:
"Virtual Godhead? Do you really have a virtual godhead? β
"Yes, the Imperial Government is willing to sign a Styx Oath with Your Highness, and as long as you can get rid of a human for us, the virtual godhead is yours."
From the deep darkness that ordinary people can't see, a large hand with skin and bones stretched out silently, just looking at the sharp claws that resemble a fierce beast, it makes people feel that their lives are threatened, and as this terrible hand makes a few strokes on the contract document taken out by the goblin officer, a set of strange and intricate symbols emerge on this parchment made of dragon's dragon skin, and then a cloud of colored light surges, which is a sign that the contract has been made.
"It's a vessel for the virtual Godhead."
Happily handing over their bargaining chips, the goblins did not dare to linger for a moment, and immediately turned away, they received the information that the negotiator was moody, behaved indefinitely, and gambled with his own life for every second longer
Luo Zhengdao, who was reviewing the text at the desk, suddenly sat up straight, this kind of whim-like feeling really couldn't make him feel at ease, and he didn't know what trouble was coming.
"What's wrong with you, Will?"
Vina Dubov took a cup of tea and placed it on the table, asking curiously. Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao shook his head and said with a melancholy expression:
"Well, I have a bad feeling that there might be trouble coming to the door again."
ββ¦β¦ Could it be a goblin? β
Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao couldn't help but laugh, when won't the goblin want him to die? He waved his hand helplessly and said:
"Hehehehe, they pray every day that I will die soon, do you need to ask about this?"
This joke is a little cold, Luo Zhengdao turned his head and squinted his eyes, since someone is ready to find fault, no matter which way the fairy comes, Luo Zhengdao, as the landlord, should be hospitable, otherwise, everyone thinks he is a soft persimmon and comes to smash the field, and things will not be easy to do.
The development of conventional armed forces cannot be achieved overnight, the problem is that Luo Zhengdao has the card of unconventional force in his hand, no matter when and where he plays it, he can make the opponent drink a good pot, only if he has to think clearly, whether the upcoming trouble is worth the big price he pays.
"Composition - fortified area! In the name of Will Needham, the magician, I hereby declare that this is my territory. β
Luo Zhengdao, who showed his fangs, made the strongest sound on the top of the highest peak of the Funayama Islands, and it may be a bit weak to resist the gods with this hand, but it is completely a killer weapon to rest on the individuals below the gods.
The natural conditions and transportation conditions of the Chuanshan Islands are far better than those of Wake Reef, Luo Zhengdao is nostalgic for the foundation he has worked Wake Reef, and in order to seek greater development space, but also out of the practical needs of better covering the safety of Wake Reef, he moved the administrative center to the Chuanshan Islands. However, a large amount of infrastructure, including shipyards and arsenals, as well as supporting workshops, is still left on Wake Reef, forming a strange pattern of heavy on the outside and light on the inside, and the goblins are not sure which attack should be the highest priority, and the two sides are in a state of standoff for the time being until they are sure of victory.
The Second Goblin Empire, in its years of tug-of-war with the exiled nobility of the human race, has undoubtedly made countless mistakes, big and small, and none of the strictest of them is to underestimate the enemy.
Arrogantly believing that the human exiles could be easily annihilated without careful preparation, the goblins threw their forces one at a time, costing them a large number of skilled sailors and ship commanders without achieving their strategic objectives. Carefully looking through these successive loss reports, just the number of goblin warships sunk by Luo Zhengdao's privateer fleet is estimated to form a huge fleet that is even more impressive than the current goblin fleet. However, compared to the losses in previous senseless battles, the purely material losses are still very limited.
Modo Heishui is a halfway monk admiral, and his command ability is also at a basic qualified level, why does it have to suffer every time with Luo Zhengdao, in addition to the unpredictable luck factor, one of the fundamental reasons is that the goblin naval personnel are low, and most of the experienced sailors and officers die in those meaningless battles.
Assuming that the goblins can put in a little more patience to build a fleet, and the goblin soldiers are fully trained and pushed all the way down with a huge advantage in strength, the result will be completely different. Facing the goblin fleet, which has a double advantage in quantity and quality, no matter what Luo Zhengdao has with three heads and six arms, he can only choose to run away to save his life. No matter how good the magic card master is, it is not a conventional weapon that can be used often, in short, the situation cannot develop out of control as it is today, which may be the most serious mistake made by the Second Goblin Empire.
