As a mage, Arthur rationally analyzes all the harvests, and it is his instinct to extract the maximum value from them.

He's not going to kill these goblins just like that.

The old alchemist must have understood this truth, so he could still talk in front of Arthur just now, pretending to be pretentious, but at this moment, in front of a notoriously unreasonable foodie ogre like Groot, the old goblin could no longer hold on to the posture and surrendered with interest.

"We come from the Dar Desert Plains in the north of Noxus, where we once established our city...... But the arrival of the Noxians crushed our ambitions for revival, and the alchemist goblins were once again enslaved...... But then the rise of the alchemy industry of the Noxian Empire saved the declining alchemy goblin tribe. ”

"It's strange to say that our city was once destroyed in pursuit of independence, but after the destruction of the city, our tribe was reborn in the Noxian system."

“…… The biggest advantage of integrating into the Noxian Empire system is the division of labor, the Noxian Empire is an organic whole, the talents of every nation and tribe can be shown to the greatest extent here, and the intelligence and alchemy expertise of the alchemy goblin tribe have also been greatly developed here, we are not good at fighting, but we are good at work, we are the best craftsmen. We don't need soldiers, we don't need to fight for the Empire, and the tens of thousands of goblins in the entire tribe all rely on processing alchemy materials for the Empire to survive. ”

“…… The needs of the empire can never be satisfied. Even if we all work overtime day and night, we can't do it. Although we are only at the bottom of the entire production chain of the Empire, and we only carry out the most basic processing of alchemy products, providing the most basic production raw materials for the Empire's mage regiment and alchemy factory, but in this way, we have saved our entire clan. ”

"While working hard for the empire every day, our skills have been honed, our knowledge has been passed on, and we have restored the skills of our ancestors from tribal legends and old papers. Now, the legacy of the Ekmiste Empire has been revived from our hands, so we are no longer lowly goblins now, we are the descendants of the great Ekmiste Empire! ”

The old goblin's story explained in detail the history and current situation of the alchemy goblins for a hundred years, and also explained their current relationship with the Noxian Empire very clearly.

"The Alchemy Goblin Tribe, and the relationship with the Empire are now interdependent. The future of alchemy goblins is inextricably linked to Noxus. ”

"So, even if you capture us, you can't get anything from our entire tribe, and we can't betray the Empire. So, if you have such a mind, you should leave it as soon as possible! ”

"The only thing you can get now is us, a total of six hundred and fifty alchemy goblin engineer captives, which are also the elite of our entire clan. So, decide now! The young men sold us to the notorious underground alchemy factories of Zaun, or tied us hand and foot, and threw us into the overseas slave markets run by the great merchants of Piltover. That's your freedom. ”

The old goblin said stubbornly.

"But for the sake of fellow alchemists, I would like to remind you that all of these six hundred and fifty goblin captives, all of whom have the qualifications of goblin engineers, are far more valuable than the value of the knowledge in their minds is far greater than what their hands and feet can make.

If you want your captives to be worth more, you'll need to put a lot of thought into it. ”

In the end, the old goblin finally revealed his careful thoughts.

Worthy of being cunning goblins, they don't have the heart to be completely loyal to the Noxian Empire.

The implication of this is that it is impossible for their tribe to betray the Empire, and it is not necessary to persuade Arthur to have such a mind, but as a captive, the goblins do have a tradition of serving the strong, and even the Noxian Empire cannot be harsh on them for this.

They are willing to trade their hard work for their lives.

That's what the old goblin meant by what he said.

Whether they were sold into slavery or working for the alchemists of Zaun, they were all acceptable, but, of course, the best thing was to stay in the alchemy factory.

This is a better choice for both them and Arthur.

Hey!

Speaking of which, I am still afraid of death.

It's a natural slave race!

This reminded Arthur of the news he had read on the magic web, the Continental Spellcaster Alliance once launched an investigation, and finally found that more than half of the slaves in the continent were goblins, especially in the plantation estates of those southern slave owners, almost all of them were goblins.

This race has many advantages as a slave, with enough intelligence, easy communication and taming, strong fertility, and if your whip is loud enough, then this creature can also be very industrious.

Aside from a few shortcomings that can be overcome due to their small size and limited strength, they are almost perfect slaves.

Therefore, they are also the most popular slave breed among slave owners.

Many slave owner families on the continent have even made a living by breeding a large number of goblins for generations.

This is on the magic web, and it has also given birth to a large number of bloodline researchers who make a living from it, and the direction of research is how to promote the bloodline reproduction of goblins, eugenics, which is a very popular field in bloodline research, and many bigwigs have earned a lot of gold coins on it.

Now, he has captured so many goblins at once.

This group of high-quality alchemy goblin slaves is enough for any alchemist to build a medium-sized alchemy factory.

Why sell it?

No, Arthur didn't want to.

He won't buy or sell any goblin captives.

In his view, people with knowledge are the most valuable resources at all times.

So, is he Arthur going to have his own alchemy factory too?

Well, not bad.

Arthur thought it was a good idea.

After the war, Arthur quickly received a communication from Victor on the front line, and after connecting, the Shadow Crystal projected Victor's image in front of him, as if he was in front of Arthur:

"Oh, recovering Emerald Ridge so quickly! Very well, Arthur, you did a good job, and I knew you weren't going to let me down. ”

"I believe that this victory of yours will definitely shut up some people when it reaches the rear."

"Your exploits deserve a reward."

"I'll remember it for you."

"Oh, yes! I heard that you captured a group of alchemy goblins? ”

"Yes!"

Arthur admitted.

"What, what do you think of these little things?"

"First of all, I don't recommend selling these goblins. These guys are far more valuable in our hands than in anyone's hands. ”

"It's an opportunity."

"Maybe I've figured out how to reward you."

Victor's magic eye flickered, as if he had thought of something interesting.
