Chapter 20: The saint still looks well-behaved after the collapse (please read it, please read it)
[Kill level 15 adventurers and level 14 adventurers in the cave. 】
[Acquire one hundred energy. 】
[Skill (Goblin's Greedy Nature) is activated, and the energy gained is doubled! 】
Gu An was in the planting hole, sitting on a stone chair that had just been carved by the miner goblin. The other goblins lined up on both sides, and the lord's noble aura was full.
The battle outside was over, and the Ice Goblin quickly returned to the cave, followed by Tia, who was in a state of despair.
[Lord, both humans have been wiped out. 】
[A red light flew out from the corpse. I don’t know what it was. It was moving so fast that I couldn’t stop it. 】
The Ice Goblin stood in the middle, reporting the battle situation to Gu An, his eyes full of enthusiasm and admiration.
The timing of the ambush and attack arranged by the lord was exquisite, and it was just right in the dangerous situation. It was like a precise command as if he was on the scene.
Such ingenious intelligence truly surpasses that of all Goblins. Being able to serve such a lord is a great blessing and honor!
Listening to the Ice Goblin's report, Gu An sat on the stone chair, crossed his hands under his nose, spread his legs naturally, and supported his body at just the right angle. This seemingly casual look gave people a sense of confidence that he could control everything. .
[The red light is a prop called (Quotes of the Dead), which can automatically transmit the scene seen one minute before death. 】
Gu An was always monitoring the battle situation. Naturally, he knew this detail and was familiar with various props. He could tell what was happening immediately.
[Quotations of the Dead] At this time, the information about the Ice Goblin should have been passed back to the Adventurers Association in the town.
Another group of adventurers died, and part of the strength of the Ice Goblins was exposed. The Adventurers Association will definitely be very angry and quickly make a decision to counterattack.
The next time the humans come to conquer the nest, they should be the Silver Team.
However, there are three level 20 mutated goblins, and even the arrival of the Silver Team cannot make any waves.
At this moment, he was more concerned about Tia's condition and whether it had achieved the expected results.
Waving his hand, he signaled the Ice Goblin to step aside. He saw that Tiya's eyes were dull and her expression was numb. She was like a walking zombie, lifeless, like a rag doll that could be ravaged at will.
The effect seems to be pretty good.
The collapsed and numb saint looked much better behaved.
"Miss Tia, Lady Saint?"
"Aren't you always looking forward to the adventurers coming to rescue you? Are you satisfied with the conversation after meeting? Do you feel good about being abandoned by humans?"
Gu An's questioning questions were like steel knives inserted into Tiya's already dilapidated and devastated heart, beating her soul, which had long been on the verge of collapse.
Tiya was deeply shrouded in the haze of despair. Her breathing was shallow and rapid, as if every time was accompanied by painful twitches. Her pale and paper-like face seemed to have been drained of all blood. Her lips were pressed tightly and trembled slightly as she faced every question. , no words to refute at all.
Her head was lowered, her shoulders were slumped, and her upright body looked sluggish at the moment.
All the scars were forcefully uncovered and exposed in front of the group of goblins. They were desperate and helpless, pushing Tia, who was already on the verge of collapse, completely into the abyss.
She covered her eyes with her arms and ran outside like crazy. She bit her red lips tightly with her teeth, and a trace of blood oozed out.
Her pretty face was distorted by excessive sadness, and water rolled down like broken pearls, winding along her cheeks, soaking her collar, and falling to the ground.
She ran into the stone hall and hid in a dark corner. Unable to restrain herself, she broke down and cried almost hysterically. The desolate sound continued to echo in the cave.
[Hmph, this stupid woman! She deserves this for betraying the lord! 】
【Yes, yes, yes! He looks arrogant every day and quarrels with the lord, but in the end he is abandoned by humans? 】
[She has become the servant of the lord, and she thought she was a saint. She harbored betrayal, but she didn’t know that the wise and powerful lord had already seen through it! 】
Several junior goblins and lustful goblins felt very relieved when they saw Tia's miserable state, and then held a small meeting to discuss and express their emotions. Only the Ice Goblin was a little worried about Tiya's condition. He came to Gu An and whispered:
[Lord, don’t you need to keep an eye on her? After all, I am still your servant. If I get too confused, I will die...]
Although the Ice Goblin is also dissatisfied with Tia's usual style of looking for trouble, he is the lord's servant after all. If he died unexpectedly, it would go against the lord's original intention, right?
However, Gu An sees things much more clearly than it does.
【Don't worry about her. 】
[Although this woman has said that she is not afraid of death since she was captured, and even actively asked for death. 】
[However, those were all temporary hard words and weak provocations due to fear of torture. After truly experiencing the moment of life and death, she would be more afraid of death than anyone else. 】
Just like anyone who commits suicide will feel regret, living an ignoble life is the instinct in everyone's bones and the uncontrollable brain consciousness. Tia obviously does not have the power to overcome all this now.
So Gu An has no worries that she will commit suicide.
According to his speculation, after experiencing this blow and collapse and despair, Tiya should have fallen into temporary confusion, and then approached the edge of degeneration. She should be only one step away from completely becoming a qualified creature.
As long as there is another opportunity, a chance to explode, she will crawl at her feet and become a begging XX saint.
That day won't be too far away.
From conquering the body to completely controlling the mind, more postures and gameplays can be unlocked immediately. Gu An had a smile of anticipation on his lips.
The evil fire goblin frowned at this time, clapped his fiery red hands together, as if he suddenly realized something, and suddenly spoke loudly:
[The lord deliberately let Tia come into contact with humans! 】
【It turns out to be like this! 】
[Congratulations, Lord Lord! 】
All the goblins were stunned by this sudden cry.
Even Gu An, who had always been strategizing and calm, showed a very surprised expression at this time and was stunned.
The Lustful Goblin walked up to the Fire Goblin and kicked it hard on the butt.
【You idiot! 】
Looking at everyone's confused eyes, the mighty and fierce Fire Goblin looked very aggrieved at this moment.
Gu An held his forehead, feeling a little embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, although the Fire Goblin is powerful in combat, its IQ is not as good as that of the junior Goblin.
[Okay, let’s leave this matter alone and start working quickly. 】
[Gather fruits, sow new seeds, water the fields, and then go out and collect more wood. 】
[Starting tomorrow, we will start a more intense war with humans. 】
Starting an all-out war with the humans in this small town will be a protracted tug-of-war.
Although that group of humans didn't have much top-level combat power, they were better in numbers and various props. Even if they couldn't conquer the nest, it wasn't difficult to defend the outside of the cave.
Facing a large number of adventurers and various props, it is also dangerous to take the initiative. You should take advantage of your free time now to collect more wood in advance to prevent future resource shortages.
For the upcoming war, Gu An began his own precise planning...
