Holding a potion worth tens of millions in her hand, Granny Pomegranate snorted coldly and threw the potion to Hei Yao who had been watching silently on the side.
She never thought that Gordon, who used to respect her so much, would say such words to her now.
Granny Pomegranate knew Gordon's character very well. Once Gordon became interested in something, he would hold on to it.
Although Granny Pomegranate didn't know what kind of interactions Yang Yu and Gordon had had before, Yang Yu successfully attracted Gordon's attention. It was difficult for her to intervene in their conversation and she could only watch foolishly from the side.
"No one else will disturb us now." Gordon said with a smile, "What is the truth about the Goblin Maze that you mentioned? If you really went to the last floor, why were you indifferent to the mountain of treasure?"
"I thought you would find something, but you found nothing." Yang Yu spread his hands, "It seems that you have no idea that there may be an eleventh floor in the Goblin Maze."
"The eleventh floor?"
When collecting the treasure, Gordon also carefully explored the room to see if there were any strange mechanisms that could open the secret passage, but found nothing.
Even if I asked Sister Jing to use magic to scan the entire room, the only answer she got was "This is an ordinary room."
There are only ten levels in the Goblin Maze, but Yang Yu can confidently say that there is an eleventh level. Gordon is becoming more and more curious.
"Why can you say that there is an eleventh floor in the Goblin Maze?"
Yang Yu did not rush to answer Gordon, but asked: "Who do you think the skeleton sitting on the throne is?"
After hearing Yang Yu talk about the skeleton, Gordon was convinced that Yang Yu had indeed entered the tenth level of the Goblin Maze.
On the tenth floor, Gordon asked Wan Jing Zhihua to carefully examine the skeleton. The skeleton had all the characteristics of a goblin, and the magic power remaining on its bones was also very similar to that of a goblin. But the skeleton did not look like a goblin, as it was impossible for an ordinary goblin to grow so big.
The only thing that is certain is that the skeleton is not a monster in the maze, but a real creature.
"In this world, goblins are generally very short.
The corpse stood taller than an adult.
There is probably only one goblin in this world who can sit on a throne like that—the Goblin King."
"Just as I thought." Yang Yu smiled and said, "Before I explain why I am so sure that the Goblin Maze has an eleventh floor, do you want to know how I got the key to open the door?"
Gordon nodded. "To be honest, I'm quite interested."
Seeing that Gordon was very interested, Yang Yu told him about his battle in the Goblin Forest in an orderly manner.
".It is really not easy to defeat the Goblin King.
That goblin's intelligence is too abnormal.
What is even more surprising is that in the dark ages of ancient times, the goblins who dominated the Goblin Empire were probably a group of guys whose intelligence was not inferior to that of humans.
Otherwise, it would be too absurd for a little goblin to build an empire with his own strength.
The conquests among humans were not the main reason for the rise of the Goblin Empire; it was just an opportunity for them.
In the goblin maze, the deeper you go, the more strange goblin monsters there are.
What were they based on as prototypes
If I hadn't seen the skeleton before, perhaps I could say that they were created based on the goblin's ideal image, but after seeing the skeleton, I am more inclined to believe that they actually existed."
Gordon slightly agreed with Yang Yu's statement.
If he hadn't seen the skeleton, he would probably have thought that the dungeon monsters were imagined monsters based on goblins.
But when he saw the skeleton, Gordon had other thoughts in his mind.
Perhaps, the monsters in that underground maze really existed.
"But you still haven't explained why you concluded that there is an eleventh floor in the Goblin's Labyrinth."
"Because it doesn't make sense that the Goblin King died on the tenth floor."
Yang Yu pointed to his eyes.
“You’ve never actually fought that guy, so you don’t know that the guy who calls himself the Goblin King is extremely obsessed with conquering humans.
With its intelligence, it must know that there are many people in this world who are stronger than it.
But it was still so confident that it spared no effort and began to implement its conquest plan.
I'm afraid that it was the gem in its body that guided it and made it see something, making it believe that there must be something in this world that could give it the power to overwhelm everyone.
This is why we came to the Goblin Labyrinth."
"So what you desire when you arrive at the Goblin Labyrinth is not treasure, but power?" Gordon paused. "The treasure in the Goblin Labyrinth is just an illusion. Deeper inside should be what the Goblin King really desires, something that can give him real power. That's why you are so sure that there is an eleventh floor in the Goblin Labyrinth?"
You can say yes, and you can say no.
Yang Yu, who has played countless games, is more inclined to another approach.
The Goblin King might just be a tool, born to have his gems taken away from him.
Relying on powerful adventurers is much more reliable than using weak goblins.
Moreover, humans are easier to get rid of than you might think.
"I thought so before. But when I saw the skeleton, I regretted it."
Yang Yu frowned, his face full of helplessness, looking at the blue sky, and said with emotion:
“The Goblin King is a goblin who created a bloody myth. The Goblin Empire may not collapse easily under the siege of humans.
There are always some discrepancies between legends and facts, especially for humans, who always modify facts to their own advantage.
We may have opened a very serious Pandora’s box.”
The scene was silent.
Wan Jing Zhihua pushed up his glasses and said what Yang Yu wanted to say next.
"You mean, maybe the Goblin King is still alive? Or, has he mastered the method of resurrection from the dead?"
As he spoke, Wan Jing Zhi Hua shot out a scorching fireball magic from his hand and aimed it at Yang Yu.
"Such important information, why didn't you tell us then!"
"At that time, I asked you if you were from the Red Blood Rose, and you flatly denied it.
Whether the last level contains sublime power and precious treasures, or the resurrected Goblin King, no one can tell. "
Yang Yu smiled bitterly.
“I admit that I had some desire to monopolize the idea at that time.
Luo said that I have the potential to become an S-rank adventurer, and I think so too.
I feel like all I need is an opportunity to showcase my abilities and become famous.
And defeating the ancient emperor is a good opportunity for me.
But after seeing it today, it turns out that they are still no match for the people from [Red Blood Rose].
You are more suitable to take over this matter than me."
