Chapter 348: Vehicles and Pickaxes

A female goblin named Liz pulled out an oblate device from her pocket, about the size of an egg, with a circle of tiny colorful hedrons on it.

She placed the device on the floor in the middle of the hall, pressed the button on it, and the tiny hedron on the device immediately flickered and screamed, "Stay out of the way!"

These two words were repeated repeatedly, and there was a faint vibration from below the ground, and it became more and more violent, as if some monster was about to break through the ground from below.

It didn't take long for the ground in the middle of the hall to bulge upwards, forming a bulge, and the stone tiles continued to crumble.

Suddenly, a swarthy iron tip pierced the bulge, then a second spike, then a third. The huge impact caused the entire dirt bag to fall apart, and with a "bang", the earth mixed with the rubble was shaken into the sky, and the entire hall was shrouded in dust.

Luca couldn't move, so he couldn't reach out to cover his mouth and nose, so he had to slow down his breathing as much as possible so as not to inhale too much dust. But the space in this hall was limited, and before the dust settled, he choked and coughed violently.

Fortunately, this impact was only a side effect of the appearance of the "vehicle", and those goblins also came prepared, put on masks, and began to sprinkle water at the place where the "vehicle" broke through the ground. After a few minutes, visibility in the ballroom was restored again.

"Chief, there are four men here, which ones shall we bring?" asked a goblin.

The little leader Vig walked over and looked at it, pointed at Luka and replied, "This looks like a figure, carry it over!"

The four goblins grabbed Lukka's limbs and dragged him away with great difficulty.

Vig seemed to hesitate for a long time among the other three, and finally said, "Well, the one with the big sword." Go back and study it carefully, such a big sword must be equipped with a lot of power-assisted devices. ”

Ollie is much more difficult to lift than Luca, she doesn't weigh much, but if she weighs it, it can probably weigh two people. This time, almost all the goblins present were dispatched, except for the squad leader Vig and the vice-captain Liz, who all went up to carry the heavily armored Ollie to the vehicle.

Lying next to the vehicle, Lukka and Ollie finally saw the mechanism for what it was.

The vehicle is cylindrical as a whole, probably to be able to pass underground, and there are many protruding branches installed on the top, like a hideous dead tree, and these branches are still moving.

The branches are essentially swarthy metal rods that connect to the propeller shafts and can be swung at all angles, with spikes that break through the earth at the front ends.

From this angle, those thorns are not so sharp, but the black and inconspicuous shape presents the shape of the front pointed and the back flattened, plus the same black and swarthy metal rod, it is obviously a lot of pickaxes!

There were a few metal knocks from inside the vehicle, and with the last "bell", a small door on the side opened, and a gray-faced goblin walked out with a hammer.

"This door is broken and stuck again!I have to go back and clean it up completely!" the goblin ignored the others, and tapped himself with a hammer to pound on the vehicle.

Luca later summed up the vehicle by saying that it was a round elevator car in disrepair with a bunch of automatic excavators.

This thing looked like a random joke no matter how it looked, but what left Lukka speechless was that such a joke actually came out of the ground, and everything except the door was running smoothly.

The size of the vehicle, as Captain Vig said, could only fit him and Ollie, plus the goblin pilot at most.

The "little green bastards" apparently did the same, dragging Lukka and Ollie into the vehicle, tying them up with a messy harness, and throwing Luka's staff in by the way. Then the driver knocked on the hammer for a long time before closing the jammed door.

The vehicle starts again under the goblin's drive, and goes down.

As it climbed, the hoes dug out passages, and as it descended, they kept knocking into the surrounding stone walls, controlling its speed. Although these goblin devices are not as beautiful as the dwarfs above, they are not bad at all.

Lukka wasn't very comfortable inside, and the goblins had removed all the seats here to accommodate him and Ollie, but now neither of them could move, they could only make eye contact, and Lukka finally had time to analyze his situation:

These goblins and gnomes apparently look down on each other, perhaps because of a feud, and both sides seem to have become accustomed to making trouble on the ground all year round. But this time, they were clearly running for themselves.

Is it because it has aroused their interest?

Luca ruled out the possibilities one by one:

Because he's a mage? It's unlikely, those gnomes don't know about magic, and if these goblins have been living underground, they should be even more inaccessible than gnomes.

So could it be the goddess of the sea? It doesn't seem like it. In the past few days, he has not found anything related to the main god on Xiantian Island, and in the idle talk of the dwarfs on the island, he only treats the three main gods as a bedtime story for children. On an island without believers, it is really not easy for the goddess of the sea to do something.

Thinking about what the goblins had just said, Lukka was almost certain that the little green men wanted to do the same thing as their cousins who lived on the ground, and wanted to get a few humans they had never seen before to go back and study them. Of course, cousin this is Luca's speculation, and it is conceivable that Mayor Finch would not approve of this statement anyway.

The research of the gnomes is quite gentle, and Lukka feels that it is not optimistic about what the research of these little green men who behave significantly more crazy will look like.

Is there a chance for him to get out? He thought about it, maybe his situation wasn't too bad. Although the body still can't move, the feeling on the tips of the fingers has slowly recovered, and this purple paralyzing gas doesn't seem to last long.

Probably because humans are much larger than gnomes and goblins, it takes a lot less time to return to normal. But the goblins didn't seem to know this, and when they put him and Ollie in the vehicle, they were only held in place with seat belts, not even the slightest coercion.

Not only that, but they also went to great lengths to put his staff and Ollie's greatsword into this vehicle, which saved them the trouble of finding weapons once they regained their mobility, which was really thoughtful.
