Chapter 11: Goblin Civilization
Cobb Damper felt like he was dying, and the curse of the long-eared woman seemed to come upon him.
As the first lieutenant to the former chief engineer of Lucky Gear, Cobb Damping has the wisdom to solve any technical problem. But that's not even counting the direct onslaught of five ferocious abyssal worms.
"Ah, they're ripping at their own legs! Damn!" Cobb scrambled to re-apply "substance transformation" to his legs, covering his bloated thighs with a layer of stone-like horny.
Then it was useless, and the two worms opened their large mouths, their sharp teeth clenching their thighs. Even if they can't bite through, they show no signs of letting up.
To make matters worse, several other worms actually bypassed their petrified bodies and rushed towards their tiny heads.
Cobb struggled to use his "tool arm" to thwart these crazy and disgusting guys. But it didn't work at all, and the worms easily dodged the hard "tool arms", leaving wounds one wound after another on his body.
"Ahhhh A goblin without a brain is not a good goblin ......"
"Oh, don't bite my face, for the sake of the gears! it hurts...... Am I going to die? Damn long ears! If I had known this, I wouldn't have come to this place if I had been killed!"
"Huh, it doesn't hurt, am I dead? No, no, no, those guys...... The damn bugs are still there. Huh, what's wrong with them?" Cobb was surprised to see that the worms had let go of themselves, and then they were all slowly retreating.
"Hey, do they finally know I'm not to be messed with?" Cobb tentatively took a few steps forward, but the bugs retreated faster. However, the crevices in the rocks were so small that the bugs quickly retreated to the corners.
"Haha, they're really scared of me! You know how good Uncle Ben is, right? I'll clean you up later" Cobb lifted his petrified leg as he suddenly noticed that the area beneath his feet was covered in a shadow.
......
Zuo De looked at the stupid fat bug under his feet a little helplessly, it didn't seem to be able to figure out what the situation looked like.
Oh, it's back!
Its expression is really interesting...... This kind of thing is completely invisible on ordinary abyssal worms.
Hey, hey, hey, how can you hide behind those newly hatched adults!
Don't pout your ass, you can't get into it even if you're on your stomach......
Looking at the funny appearance of the fat bug hiding everywhere in a panic, Zuo De's mood was inexplicably better, and he hadn't felt so relaxed for a long time.
In fact, Zuo De was also full of confusion, what kind of place was this guy who looked like an outsider? What the hell did it come from? A rare worm of level 3 was chased all over the ground by a few ordinary adult worms that had just hatched? How did it grow to this stage?
If it weren't for seeing that this guy was indeed in a desperate situation, Zuo De didn't plan to contact it so early.
"Who are you?" Zode's deep voice sounded, and this was the first time he had spoken.
"Where did it come from, and for what purpose?"
Asto's lingua franca is indeed a magical language, a language that is said to have been invented by the ancient Titans, consisting of fifteen simple syllables but capable of expressing very complex content.
"Huh?" the goblin seemed to come back to his senses as he pouted and shivered. Immediately, his legs stopped shaking, and his waist stopped shaking.
"Under is Cobb of the Lucky Gears, and Kobb Damp, the goblin. Your Excellency, ...... you?" the goblin struggled to get up from the ground, made a goblin salute, and replied respectfully.
"Shut up and answer my question!" said Zode, interrupting the goblin's chatter.
"Yes, yes, my lord is right, he is talking too much. “
"Tell me what you mean! goblins. I know that company, so don't lie to me!" Goblins are a well-known intelligent race in the great world of Astor, possessing magical alchemy and engineering skills, mastering the vast land of the main material plane, and wielding great influence in all planes. It even has its own super plane: the realm of machines.
"Ahh......h Uh, sorry, a bit off topic. In the next this time, it is for ......"
"Wait!" Zod suddenly stopped Cobb as he walked over to the adult worms curled up in a ball. Kick them one by one, and trample them all to death. Zod didn't want any secrets to be heard by other creatures, not even the newborn Abyss Worm.
"Okay, you can say it now. ”
"Uh...... Okay, okay, sir, that's it......" Cobb was frightened, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then said.
It turned out that more than fifty years ago, in the great world of Astor, there was a protracted war between the powerful goblin race and another powerful race, the elves.
In the end, all the goblin cities on the main material plane were destroyed by the elves, and only a few goblin elites fled into their last fortress, the super plane "Machine Realm", and sealed the entire plane, destroying all the coordinates connected to the main material plane, hoping to recuperate and return again.
However, behind this war, the main god of the elves, Elsemia, personally intervened, and he cast a super curse on all the goblins "Elsemia's Fool", which degraded the goblin intelligence of the entire main material plane to the level of beasts. At this point, the glorious goblin civilization was completely ended, and the elves were also allowed to ascend to the apex of the races in the world of Astor.
In the "Realm of Machines", the goblins, who were lucky enough to escape the curse, angrily decided to take revenge on the elves.
The goblins searched for all and all the knowledge of the powers, and eventually, from the vast ancient texts, they found the record of Anselm, the place where the goblins originated. This ancient parchment scroll depicts one of the ultimate weapons once possessed by the goblins in the Land of Origin: the Destroyer of the Void. It's a terrifying weapon that claims to be able to destroy the stars.
Goblins are not native to the world of Asto, and according to the oldest texts, goblins originally lived on a plane called Anselm. However, in the nearly 10,000-year history of stepping foot on the main material plane, the goblins have not always had smooth sailing. In the midst of interdimensional wars, they eventually lost their place of origin. It is documented that a powerful demon lord named Monston seized the level and eventually dragged it into the abyss.
