Chapter 164: The Underground City
Rows of torches illuminate the inside of the mine as bright as day, and hundreds of goblins are sweating and digging for the swarthy ore, and the newly dug ore is carried by the goblins in a long line, connecting them into a long line that stretches into the depths of the mine...... The entire underground has been mined into a huge beehive-like hole with a radius of thousands of meters, and there are stone pillars more than ten meters high in the giant cave every ten meters, which looks more like a huge labyrinth!
Is this still a lazy, greedy, stupid goblin? Lear looked at the elves who worked hard like an ant colony, and couldn't help but secretly admire that each pillar of stone dispersed the pressure of the mountain formations above it just right, so that the mine would not collapse...... And the goblins methodically mine, load, and transport, without any chaos, exerting their limited and powerful to the extreme.
"My lord, please come with me......" Zaza Rogge led him along with the transport procession as he scooped up a bag of ore and slung it over his shoulder. It seems that he, the mine manager, is also doing it himself.
The goblins who were mining withdrew in an orderly manner, the hole was tightly filled with rocks, and the goblin miners carried the remaining ore, and as the team marched, the torches behind them gradually went out and sank into the endless darkness...... Lear followed Zaza Rogge deeper and deeper, and by his instincts, he was now hundreds of meters underground. The cave ahead was getting cramped, and Lear had to bend down and half-crouch to advance.
This was originally a passage for goblins to walk, and it could only accommodate two goblins walking side by side, and at a height of one meter and three meters, Lear certainly had a hard time walking.
After about two hours and almost thirty or forty kilometers, Rogge smiled and said, "Dear Lord Richard, we will soon reach the main city of the goblins, we must seal this passage in case anyone discovers our main city......"
He turned around and ordered the goblins behind him: "Goblin engineer, install goblin explosives, blow up this passage, and completely seal the ......"
"Yes, Lord Rogge......" A dozen goblins in gray leather armor immediately walked over and began to determine their orientation, putting down the square black wooden boxes.
Goblin Explosives...... Lear was taken aback again, the goblins here were completely different from the goblins he had seen outside!
How do you know that it is really a big mistake to measure the goblins with the technology of the original world, the goblin gunpowder is completely alchemy, and the gunpowder in his original world is not related to the wind and horses at all...... "Boom!" The goblin gunpowder exploded, the earth trembled, the gravel above the head fell, the goblins were shaken to the ground, a few poor guys were even smashed in the head by the falling rock, with a burst of bang, the mine behind him was completely blocked.
Lear's head was also smashed by a few rocks, and he couldn't help but secretly curse to himself, these goblins have no knowledge of safe blasting operations, if this tunnel is to collapse, won't they all have to be buried alive?
Half an hour later, in a remote corner of the goblin main city of Ers, a team of tens of thousands of goblin miners came out and quickly integrated into the huge city...... Lear was dumbfounded, and everything in front of him seemed to be in a dream!
Even he would never have dreamed that there was such a megacity underground! and a stupid, filthy goblin city...... In the dome tens to hundreds of meters, or even thousands of meters high, dark red light emanates from nowhere, illuminating the whole city, and the houses are dug out according to the topography, and from a distance they look like birdcages...... Groups of goblin children frolicked in the streets, but adult goblins were hurrying, holding all kinds of strange tools in their hands, and occasionally an old goblin with gray hair pacing slowly behind his back, but his brow was tightly wrinkled.
Rogge whispered: "That old man is Ban Lu, an engineer of the Goblin Engineering Institute, and he is said to be involved in the manufacture of mechanical puppets......
Lear couldn't help but look at the goblin a few more times, he was shocked by what he had seen today.
"My lord, there is the Flame Lake in front, and beyond the Flame Lake is the center of the Doom Landlord City, where the Goblin King City Guards are guarded, even I can't enter it!" Rogge said: "I have sent someone to inform Lord Zazabinger, and he will come to meet you soon......"
Lear snorted, and under the dark red light, he felt a heat wave churning in front of him, and the fire element in the air suddenly became very dense, and the temperature in the air seemed to rise a lot.
Lake of Fire!
This is clearly a huge lake formed by magma, which is located in the city of the goblin dungeon, and the flames are churning in the lake, and Lear carefully sees that many wide ditches have been dug around the magma lake, forming rivers of magma, and I don't know where it is being led.
He understood in an instant that the dark red light of the underground was emanating from these lava lakes, and that clever goblins had used this method to illuminate and maintain the temperature and energy supply of the dungeon!
He had a vague feeling that even those rivers that had been diverted into lava streams might have many other uses, and that this dungeon was home to almost tens of millions of goblins, and that food sources alone would be a huge problem...... Along the shore of the dark red, glowing golden magma lake, Lear became more and more amazed, and the Asmodean Great Demon God in the sea became noisy: "Lear boy, this magma contains a lot of metal ores, quack, let me analyze it...... Well, there's iron ore concentrate, there's copper ore, uh! I found Mithril, but it's too low......"
Asmodeus's analysis surprised Lear to the fact that the lava lake contained more than twenty metals, some of which were quite rare!
The Goblin Main City is built so deep underground, and it is a place rich in minerals, it is no wonder that people have never been able to find the location of the Goblin King's Court, and it seems to be self-sufficient, and the goblins living in the dungeon rarely appear on the ground...... While he was pondering, suddenly, the gate of the main city in front of him was opened, and two teams of goblin wolf riders came like ink lines, led by Zazabinger, who had a relationship with Lear in the Great Black Mountain Forest, the former leader of the Goblin King's Court Guard, and now the general of the Goblin Command, he was wearing a full set of well-carved armor with intricate twig patterns, and even the wolf rider who stepped down was covered under the delicate and light armor...... "Lord Richard, I want to kill you......" The goblin laughed.
Lear is a chill, you old male goblin always think about what I do......
