Two days later, the first poison spirit seed was finally born.
As a result, the worm witch Billis became the first wizard to leave the team.
The large army continued to advance towards Anweimar, where the capital of the Great Goblin Empire was located, while Bliss turned south with the poisonous spirit seeds. The task Greem gave it was to soak the poison spirit seeds in the wells or water sources of every goblin town and city for a quarter of an hour.
Such a task is difficult to say, but easy to say.
It first requires the quest-executor to have a means of invisibility, otherwise an alien race travels through the domain of the great goblin empire, and it needs to be close to the water sources they depend on for survival. That in itself is no small challenge!
However, relying on the insect witch Billis to gather and disperse the invisible insect body, this difficulty is nothing at all.
According to the information obtained during these days, Greem has already drawn up a topographic map of the entire territory of the Goblin Plane, in which the capital Anvilmar is located in the center of the entire plane. Surrounded by mountains and steep terrain, it is an easy-to-defend and hard-to-attack place that is difficult for ordinary creatures to set foot on.
So the goblins relied on the powerful construction machinery capabilities of their own race to build a city of metal—the city of steel—on the most precipitous mountain.
There are 120,000 high-level goblins living there all year round, and it is also a technological capital and a city of miracles where goblin engineers, inventors, and alchemists gather.
In the past thousands of years, in order to inject endless power into the mechanical civilization, the goblins almost hollowed out the mountainside of the mountain below the Steel City, and used massive coal and steam power to support the operation of the Steel City.
Now, with the emergence of magic energy, the goblins built a huge ten-story space furnace in the belly of the mountain, and then used the magic energy absorbed by the space furnace to push the goblin civilization towards large-scale use of magic energy.
For these contents, the goblins don't seem to have any sense of secrecy. Instead, they promote the advantages and benefits of magic energy on a large scale within the group, and call on more goblin engineers and alchemists to seriously understand and study magic energy.
It's a pity that the goblin empire's research on goblin runes is still too superficial and crude, and the research on the miniaturization and miniaturization of space furnaces is progressing slowly. Otherwise, each battle magic weapon would be equipped with a miniature space furnace, then they would be able to get rid of the shackles of the magic energy battery and become a battle machine that would never stop killing.
So far, the goblin empire can only place space furnaces on large magical equipment such as giant floating ships. Use them as the power source of small and miniature magic weapons, supporting the continuous fighting and killing of the magic weapon legion.
However, with the goblin mechanic's quasi-shaman-level physical fitness, it is still a question whether he can bear this kind of continuous fighting. After all, like Tigule, there are still a small number of individuals who have crossed the extraordinary threshold, and most goblin mechanics are still flesh and blood, needing to eat, drink, excrete, and sleep.
Even after experiencing a bloody battle, most goblin mechanics will have an additional psychological burden. This point is unavoidable even for Tier 1 goblin mechanic Tigule. Who told it to have an extraordinary body, but no spirit and soul to match it.
Therefore, a Tier 1 Tigule driving a Tier 2 metal goblin can only barely display the strength of a pseudo Tier 2!
Greem is not at all optimistic about the goblin city that the goblin empire has worked so hard to build - the steel city. There is only one reason, and that is... These idiots actually repaired the space furnace under the steel capital. This... Doesn't this mean that the most elite group of high-level goblins in the entire goblin empire lives on a super huge powder keg
Moreover, they are still filling this gunpowder barrel with gunpowder day and night!
Of course, as a native goblin, they might be able to find a thousand reasons to do so. After all, the entire goblin plane is trembling under the rule of goblin muskets and goblin cannons, and there is no enemy in the plane that can threaten the ruling order of the goblin empire.
Moreover, the huge steel capital wants to continue to operate for tens of millions of years. Finding a clean, pollution-free, and continuous energy source nearby is the most important thing to ensure the continuation of the goblin civilization.
Therefore, when there were no internal or external troubles, and they were in urgent need of energy, it was not too unreasonable for the ruler of the goblin empire to make such a choice. It's just that now that Greem and others are here, any hidden dangers and flaws in the seemingly huge body of the Goblin Empire will be exploited by the wizards and become the first kamino domino to overthrow the goblin civilization!
And what Greem wants to do the most right now is to sneak into that Iron City, and then throw a fireball into the super space furnace carefully built by the goblins. Presumably, that will be a huge fireworks show that shakes the entire plane!
However, in order to achieve this goal, there are still very difficult tasks that need to be done step by step.
So at present, the only thing Greem can do is to desperately spread the seeds of the plague poison spirit to the entire goblin plane, so as to add a little bargaining chip to the later negotiations.
There is no way, Greem can't use the method of killing both sides to obtain this goblin plane, otherwise a large number of plagues will spread, and the creatures that can survive on this plane will survive ten steps.
At that time, perhaps this plane has no resistance power, but it also has no basic power. Greem wants to deeply develop the resources in this plane, so where can he find so much free labor
Go to the wizarding world and buy cheap alien slaves? What is needed to develop a plane is not hundreds of thousands of basic labor, but thousands of adult slaves with strong physical strength, and a mature social system is needed within the plane to support the derived more population.
In order to obtain a large amount of rare metals, it is necessary to organize a large amount of labor to dig metal ores underground and transport them to the surface. And this is not the end, the coarse ore still needs to be screened and filtered, and then the high-quality ore is initially smelted and turned into metal ingots.
In this process, it is usually accompanied by the extraction and purification of rare metals.
Therefore, if you want to develop metal mines and some rare resources in the plane on a large scale, you must rely on the inherent social system to complete it.
If all the natives of this plane were wiped out by the plague, and Greem was asked to create a social system from scratch to complete the development of the plane's resources, then... it would be impossible to do it in hundreds of years!
It was for this reason that Greem planned to bring a strictly controlled plague on the goblin plane. It will not only deal a heavy blow to the goblin empire, but also prevent the power of the entire plane from being subverted.
Seriously, such thinking is purely easier said than done.
But for the ideals and beliefs in his heart, Greem can only try his best!
Fortunately, this goblin plane does not belong to me yet, so I can toss as much as I want. If the ruler of the goblin empire is still stubborn after detonating the super space furnace, Greem doesn't mind letting the entire goblin plane die.
After all, only the benefits you get are your own. Greem didn't mind smashing the whole shop if he couldn't carry it away.
If the meat is rotten, it will rot in your own pot!
Two days later, after the second Poison Spirit Seed appeared, Mary also left the team and rushed to the west of the Goblin Continent by herself.
However, on the second day after Mary left, the three of Greem were overtaken by the swarming magic weapon army in a wilderness.
But the magic weapon army came fast, and retreated fast!
And the reason why the other party was willing to give up the enemy who had been chasing them for 6 days was because Greem's team had a terrifying sorcerer that they couldn't bear—Endor the Poison Woman.
After a long absence of 6 days, they finally caught up with Greem and the others again. After hearing the news, hundreds of combat magic weapons from the magic weapon army launched a battle charge towards them from all directions like a swarm of bees.
And what greeted them was the poisonous aura of the poisonous woman Endor!
The Poison Woman Endor planted a small altar in the wilderness, and used this altar to enhance the coverage of her poisonous aura, allowing it to spread from the original 100 meters to the current 500 meters.
As a result, the battle magic weapon that rushed into the poisonous halo was hit almost without realizing it.
When the poisonous woman Endo activated the poisonous rune, the instant burst of poisonous damage wiped out nearly a hundred battle magic weapons present in one fell swoop.
All of a sudden, above the sky, one after another battle magic equipment fell like rain.
As soon as they plunged into the ground, there was no more movement.
The all-pervasive poison passed through the ventilation holes on the surface of the battle magic weapon, directly poisoning the goblin mechanic inside. No matter how powerful the battle magic equipment is, without the control of the mechanic, it is just a cold iron bump.
Therefore, in front of the poisonous woman Endor, as long as the goblin mechanics still need to breathe, they have no hope of surviving!
Of course, Greem and the others were well aware of the principle of such witchcraft, but the incoming Magic Equipment Legion knew nothing about it.
The leader of the magic weapon army is still urging his subordinates to join the battle group quickly, not to let the evil wizards go. But who would have imagined that with just a flash of green light in the hands of the ugly and evil old witch on the other side, nearly a hundred battle magic weapons already fell to the ground without any movement.
No matter how the head of the magic weapon army called, he couldn't get any response from those battle magic weapons. And the few magic weapons that were sent in later also fell to the ground without any warning not long after they stepped into the battle circle, and could no longer be contacted.
Faced with such a strange scene, the head of the magic weapon army almost went crazy!
Sacrifice in the heat of battle, it's understandable. It is also understandable to die in a harsh natural environment.
But... like in front of you, everything was fine before, only a flash of green light in the opponent's hand, and all the members of the party died in battle. Such a thing is simply unacceptable with its barren brain!
Therefore, the head of the magic weapon army, who was frightened by the unknown fear, could only order to retreat!
Most of the hundreds of battle magic weapons that had covered the sky before were wiped out in a blink of an eye, and less than two hands were able to escape far away. Such tragic casualties made the goblins heartbroken, and they only dared to wait until the wizards were far away before sneaking back to the scene and taking away a few magical equipment.
After the inspection by the goblin doctor, it was found that all the goblin mechanics died of poison.
At this point, the goblins knew that there was such a terrible loophole in the battle magic weapon!
