Chapter 21: The Goblin Clan
"Uh...... This question is a bit profound, and I can't tell you exactly what I want to say. If the Greug patriarch is interested, we can talk about cooperation. Xiao Longchen stared at the Patriarch of Gru seemingly casually, although he looked serious on the surface, in fact, he had already slandered his dignity in his heart.
Patriarch Gru's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he didn't care that the injuries on his body had not healed, his body unconsciously leaned forward, and asked with some uncertainty: "Are you willing to teach us the manufacturing method of the battle suit mecha?"
Xiao Longchen nodded with great certainty and said, "Your goblin clan's forging skills are well-known, and I believe that by cooperating with you, I will definitely let the footprints of the battle-armored mecha cover every corner of this world." And I can also tell the Gru Patriarch clearly that the battle suit mecha is not the strongest weapon I master, as long as your goblin clan has excellent technology, we can still make a powerful weapon ten times and a hundred times more powerful than this in the future!"
After hearing this, the Patriarch Gru's breathing became heavy.
His lifelong wish is to lead the goblin race to a real rise in his lifetime, not to mention reaching the same height as human civilization, at least to let his race migrate out of this wasteland, so that the people can live a comfortable and prosperous life.
Since they turned against humans, the goblin clan has survived countless hardships and obstacles. They have long been tired of this precarious life, and they dream of making the race strong.
However, the great mission that countless goblin ancestors have not completed seems to be about to be realized in their generation, the old eyes of the Elder Gru were full of tears, he grabbed Xiao Longchen's hand, and said in a trembling voice: "We goblin clan have been waiting for this day for thousands of years, if Xiaoyou is really willing to help us, the goblin clan will always remember this kindness!"
Xiao Longchen was a little furious by the hot eyes of the Gru patriarch, although he had a lot of confidence in Xiaoxing, but before he saw the experimental results, he didn't dare to talk too much, so he scratched his head in embarrassment, and said a little embarrassed: "Patriarch Gru, don't be so excited, although I have mastered those techniques, but there are also many problems that need to be overcome with you, and in the end, whether I can copy the battle suit mecha, in fact, I don't have absolute confidence." ”
Seeing Xiao Longchen so humble, Patriarch Gru not only did not have disappointment in his heart, but his confidence in him became a little stronger: "Xiaoyou don't have to be arrogant, although I don't know what the difficulties you are talking about, but I also believe that as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to achieve what we want in the end!"
Next, Xiao Longchen talked about the problems to be overcome in terms of energy, and also explained the general requirements for the power core. Patriarch Gru lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and finally said as if he had made up his mind: "The power core you mentioned is something that can be tried, but this kind of thing is also very attractive to you human astromagicians. Before we goblins take it out, I hope that Xiaoyou will agree to keep this secret for our goblin clan. Because if this matter is leaked, it is very likely to bring ruin to my people!"
Xiao Longchen saw that the Gru Patriarch's expression was extremely solemn, and he also became interested in what he said, so he hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry about this, the secrets of your goblin clan cannot be leaked, and the high-tech weapon I have in my hands cannot be known to outsiders, so before we have enough strength to protect ourselves, we must be afraid of causing outsiders to covet it." Therefore, Patriarch Gru can rest assured that we will be partners in weal and woe in the future!"
Being reminded by him like this, the Patriarch of Gru also felt that Xiao Longchen's words made sense, the secrets of their goblin clan were really a little insignificant compared to this powerful weapon.
Facing Xiao Longchen's outstretched right hand, Patriarch Gru looked a little stunned, but he quickly reacted and also reached out to shake him.
"Happy ...... cooperation"
"Happy working together!"
There were bright smiles on the faces of the two of them at the same time, but Xiao Longchen's eyes were clear and transparent, but there was still a trace of doubt hidden in the royal blue eyes of the Gru patriarch.
He couldn't understand why the other party would find their goblin clan to seek cooperation even though he was obviously a human.
Judging from the power displayed by the current battle suit mecha, as long as he handed over this thing to those human empires, he would definitely be able to get more resources than their goblin clan.
However, the elder of the Gru clan is old and refined, so naturally he will not turn away the big opportunity sent to the door, and it can be seen from Xiao Longchen's sincere eyes that this human boy is definitely not a treacherous person.
In the face of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he decided to use the power of his clan to block it.
Because the Patriarch Gru couldn't go to the ground for the time being, he asked the Ba brothers to take him to the treasury.
The goblin clan has been around for thousands of years, and each generation has been searching for metal veins, so naturally many strange things have been dug up. Anything they deem valuable will be stored in the goblin collection.
After tens of thousands of years of accumulation, it has become a huge treasure trove.
Xiao Longchen learned through the introduction of the Ba brothers that there were dozens of treasure houses of the goblin clan, which were located in all corners of this wasteland.
In addition to the regular metal storehouse, there is also a hidden warehouse dug out of the mountain wall to store treasures that they don't need for the time being.
And the destination of Xiao Longchen's three trips was this huge warehouse full of rare treasures.
Out of the Goblin City, and through almost the entire valley, the Bab brothers took a stand in front of the waterfall at the end of the valley.
Just as Xiao Longchen was puzzled, Baha walked straight towards a mountain wall on the left.
It looked unremarkable, indistinguishable from a normal mountain wall, but when Baha reached out and pressed down on a raised rock, a crack suddenly parted in the ground between several boulders.
Xiao Longchen was not standing too far, so the moment the crack appeared, he saw that there were obviously artificially repaired steps below.
Buck greeted him, and then walked straight towards the underground entrance, Xiao Longchen was already full of anticipation, so he quickly quickened his pace to follow.
When the three of them descended the steps to the depths of the earth's surface, Xiao Longchen was completely stunned by the scene in front of him in an instant.
This is clearly a naturally formed underground space, but it has been discovered and repaired by the goblins.
Covering the size of a dozen basketball courts, with many lighting fixtures installed above and around the cliffs, Bach was the first to walk in, and countless mountains of treasures took up almost all of the space.
Among those treasures, most of them were colorful and beautiful gems, and there were also strange things that he couldn't recognize, and even Xiao Longchen saw many fist-sized diamonds in a corner place.
And the amount of these things can only be described by massiveness. All of them shimmered in the soft light, and it looked like they had arrived in a dreamlike world, with indescribable brilliance.
"Brother Longchen, the patriarch and grandfather have already explained, you can choose whatever you want here, as long as it can be used, we can move it out for you!" Baha saw Xiao Longchen's shocked expression, and he also felt a handful of eyebrows, so at this moment, he was a little proud to let out bold words, looking like a rich man.
Xiao Longchen nodded with a dull gaze, and then quickly ran to the area where the diamonds were stacked, picked up a huge diamond that he didn't know how many carats, and shone it on the light projected above, feeling that his heartbeat rate was at least three or four times a second.
He swallowed a little bitterly, and said to himself, "If this is brought to Earth, how many zero Federation Coins can it be sold for?"
