Chapter 14: Coercion
"Tell me, have you ever met that beast?"
Southwest corner of Eldrainaru Dungeon, Ogre Zone. Several tall ogres were grabbing the two goblin guards and coercing them to tell Abdul-Jabbar's whereabouts.
The goblin guards were held in the hands of ogres, like a few adults holding a group of toys, and the dwarf goblins were powerless to resist.
Despite being saddled with black technology, the ogres captured the goblins before they could react......
"No, even if there is, I can't tell you. ”
The goblin, who was held in the ogre's hand like a toy, replied indignantly. The captain of the guard should have seen that these ogres had bad intentions, but he didn't react in advance.
"Really? Let's make a game. ”
The leading ogre smiled slyly, holding a goblin in one hand and placing the candle with the oil under the goblin guard in the other......
"Please, let me ......"
Goblin guards, grilled like meat skewers, struggle for mercy.
"Kerry, if you dare to say it, the Imperial Guard will cut your skin. ”
But the goblin captain on the side sternly stopped his subordinates' greed for life and fear of death.
"Captain, don't toast or eat or drink, I'll be honest with you, this beast that Lord Mork wants is worth a fortune, and if you can help us catch him, our ogre tribe will pay 10,000 gold coins for its head. ”
The ogre leader turned his head and once again aimed a sinister smile at the captain of the goblin guard.
"Ten thousand gold coins?"
If the goblin is an insatiable race, then this characteristic is vividly manifested in the head of the goblin guard at this moment, the goblin captain who just had a face as firm as iron and swore to guard the law to the death, when he heard the number of gold coins at this moment, his eyes were already full of gold stars, and he forgot that he was still held by the ogre.
"Well, how's that, do you want it?
The ogre leader deliberately lengthened his voice and made a temptation, what is the concept of 10,000 gold coins? It is equivalent to the total tax revenue of the Goblin Chamber of Commerce for a year, which can be enough for an ordinary goblin civilian to eat and drink for a lifetime. It is equivalent to winning the jackpot of 10 million now, and such a temptation is simply irresistible for the goblin race who regard wealth as their life.
"Then you let us down first. I'm going to report this to the Chamber of Commerce. ”
The goblin guard thought for a while, and his brain began to calm down, even if it was 10,000 gold coins, he couldn't swallow it privately at that time, the goblin chamber of commerce has strict rules, if any member embezzles or embezzles public finances, then what awaits it will be endless imprisonment, and during the imprisonment, he will be subjected to countless inhuman tortures, this is a perverted law unique to goblins, but only in this way can the greedy nature of goblins be well restrained, otherwise you are greedy, I am greedy, and the goblin chamber of commerce will not develop to this extent today.
Knock knock.
The ogre soldier let go of the goblin captain in his hand, and there was a crisp crash on the ground, and the sound of the goblin captain's iron armor crashing into the ground.
"Little man, think clearly, don't play any tricks on us, or your companion, I don't care if you let us in here in the future, if we can't do it, we can destroy your city, you know......?
The ogre leader spoke, and the poor goblin captain nodded obediently, but he would definitely not say these words to the head of the Chamber of Commerce, otherwise it would be another outbreak of war, although the goblins can profit from the war, but their own race will also be displaced, no goblin wants to see such a scene, no matter how much wealth there is, life can not be settled, and the goblins do not want to see it.
"I see. ”
As he spoke, the goblin captain ran into the chamber of commerce's headquarters.
It takes at least an hour to get to the Chamber of Commerce headquarters from the ogre area in the southwest corner, and even if you take the sightseeing subway, it takes half an hour. And in the meantime, those brutal ogres don't know how they will torture their companions?Thinking of this, the captain of the goblin guard quickened his pace......
"You mean those ogres are coming to find a beast for ten thousand gold?"
The Chamber of Commerce boss and the other councillors couldn't help but open their mouths when they heard this, they never thought that the ogre would make such a deal with them.
10,000 gold, a whole year's tax in the dungeon. You must know that the entire goblin bunker, half of all the financial revenue, half from the trade profit difference, the other half from the city's taxes, and 10,000 gold is undoubtedly a staggering amount. It's just that the more the ogre takes a fancy to this beast like this, the more curious the heads of the Goblin Chamber of Commerce become, what kind of beast makes these always brutal ogres so interested?
"Do you know what the beast they wanted, what it looked like, have you seen it?"
The boss of the Chamber of Commerce spoke.
"I haven't seen it either, but according to the ogres, it's a beast that can walk upright, with strong limbs and two fangs on its lips exposed, obviously. And he carried an iron warhammer half a man tall that could summon lightning, and a lionskin cloak draped over his back. Well, it seems like that's all. ”
The goblin captain didn't dare to slack off, and dragged the situation out of 1510.
"Have you seen it?"
The boss of the Goblin Chamber of Commerce was stunned, who had ever seen such a monster? This is a new species to this planet...... Although it is true that he is a new species.
"No ......"
"Nope. ”
The others present replied one after another, and there was a commotion at the scene, and everyone began to talk. What kind of beast can still walk upright and summon lightning?
"I seem to have seen the beast they call in the ghetto. ”
Just when everyone was talking in amazement, a goblin nobleman shouted, and the scene was silent.
"I seem to have seen the beast they described. But he doesn't look like a beast...... Well, I mean, this beast, although it looks fierce, is very proud and civilized in its words and deeds, not at all as rude and irritable as the beast, and a talking beast, I find this incredible, don't you think?"
The goblin nobleman muttered to himself, recalling the orc he saw in the slum two days ago, and he was attracted by the war hammer on the orc's back that day, but after chatting for a long time, he found that the orc had no intention of selling his weapons at all, and the goblins couldn't buy and sell by force, let alone rob, so in desperation, he had to go home. But I didn't expect this beast to be the target of the ogre?!(To be continued.) )
