Magic Apprentice

Chapter 86: Goblin

Views:

Just when Enleco thought that Maclu would be torn to pieces by the beasts, suddenly all the beasts retreated to both sides.

The middle basket leads to a narrow and straight road.

A beautiful girl wearing green clothes slowly passed through the middle.

When she was about to reach Maklu, the skeleton of a cow suddenly appeared in front of her.

Before Enleco could order the undead cow to stop attacking, the girl had already taken the lead in attacking.

She grabbed the backbone of the undead cow, and with a crunching sound, the huge cow's bones slowly turned into a puddle of soft green mud.

Only then did Enleco notice that the creature in front of him that looked like a beautiful girl was the goblin that Maclu hated so much.

Enleco had only seen this weird creature from books before, but now a living goblin was standing in front of him. At that moment, Enleco suddenly felt that everything described in the book was not complete.

No matter which book it is, whenever goblins are mentioned, they will be described as evil and violent demonic creatures.

Their teeth and claws contain enough venom to kill an elephant.

Of course, goblins are most notorious for their ability to control other creatures.

Although I don't know how these strange creatures do this. However, Enleco guessed that it should be a strange ability similar to spiritual magic.

But the goblin in front of him didn't give him the feeling of being evil or weird.

She looked like an innocent girl of ten and a half years old, with a calm and peaceful expression.

Only those gray-blue eyes seemed a little different, cold and at the same time seemed to be able to penetrate everything.

The bodies of goblins are naked, and they do not need to use clothes to cover their bodies.

There is no such thing as shame in their world.

The green parts are the scales growing on their bodies.

Thin and smooth, like the skin of a snake.

The scales extend all the way to the wrists and ankles, and even the backs of the hands and feet are covered with a thin layer of scales.

But apart from that, everything else is no different from real humans.

Even the nails, except for being sharper and slender, are exactly the same as human beings, not like the claws of beasts.

The goblin bent down, pinched Maclu's body, and turned him over.

But she didn't seem to mean to hurt Macru.

After fidgeting like this for a while, the goblin turned his head towards Enleco.

Although there was no hint of hostility, Enleco still decided to be careful. After summoning several undead tigers to his side, he felt a little relieved.

"Do you think this will be useful?" the goblin said disapprovingly.

Since meeting the old wolf in the magic forest, Enleco is no longer shocked by these demonic creatures speaking human words.

Elderly demonic creatures originally possess wisdom beyond ordinary people.

In fact, apart from being creative, humans have no other advantages.

"I don't intend to conflict with anyone." If possible, Enleco will never use force to solve the problem.

"But, you attacked me and my men first." The goblin took a step forward and said.

Enleco held the astrolabe tightly in his hand, and he was ready to escape.

Now he regrets why he didn't make a few hellfire devices when he was in the small town ahead.

Although the Flame Skull Demon was cracked by Hagrid. However, at this time, the Flame Skeleton Demon is the most powerful bodyguard.

After preparing his escape magic, Enleco became confident and said: "It was you who attacked this town first. If you are willing to let the people in the town go, then we can live in peace with you."

"People in the town? Boring sense of justice. But don't worry, my men just enjoyed some cattle and sheep. They still have to drive a long way." The goblin said.

Although he didn't know whether the goblin told the truth, Enleco was at least relieved.

"Okay then, I and my companions will leave here immediately, please make way." Enleco said.

"If you plan to leave, just leave. I don't want to conflict with you. I can see that you are quite powerful. Besides, I don't want my subordinates to be harmed. However, your companions cannot Let's go, he is not one of you." The goblin kept looking at Maclu and said calmly, her tone leaving no room for negotiation.

If they didn't know that the person standing there was a goblin, most people who saw her expression would think that she was deeply infatuated with Maclu.

"That won't work. It seems I have to fight you." Enleco urged his undead bodyguards to surround the goblin, but he did not intend to fight the goblin.

Enleco planned to take advantage of the fact that the goblin was entangled by the undead bodyguards and couldn't get away, so he could grab Maclu and run away with him.

But Enleco never expected that his undead bodyguards would surround the goblin.

The goblin rushed in front of him like lightning.

Her speed was not inferior to Hagrid's.

Enleco's reaction was not slow either. He shrank and avoided the fatal catch.

The astrolabe in his hand was activated, and a thick smoke fell from the sky.

When the thick smoke dispersed, Enleco was already standing on a hilltop in the distance.

He was secretly glad that he had just escaped death.

The only regret is that it was too late to rescue Macru.

It seemed that he could only quietly follow the goblin, looking for opportunities to save his fellow barbarians.

Just as Enleco was thinking about how to avoid the keen sense of smell of those beasts.

Suddenly, a slender but strong hand touched his shoulder.

Those sharp and deadly nails scratched Enleco's throat gently.

In an instant, Enleco felt that the blood all over his body suddenly solidified, and even his heart stopped beating.

His mind went blank.

"I really didn't expect that you actually have such a special ability. But you were unlucky. When you escaped just now, you got me involved." The goblin said in a cold tone.

"However, if you are willing to help me deal with a guy, I can spare your life." The goblin said lightly in Enleco's ear.

Enleco has not faced such a choice for a long time.

But he will never forget the skill of doing this kind of multiple-choice question.

Enleco agreed repeatedly, and now his only request is that the goblin remove its poisonous claws from his throat as soon as possible.

"You make such an empty promise, do you think I will believe you?" The goblin gently bit Enleco's earlobe and said.

Although this goblin's skills are not comparable to Miss Milinda's, there is a strange excitement because her life is entirely in the hands of this demonic creature.

Suddenly, Enleco felt a pain in his back, and the goblin dug his sharp nails deeply into the muscles of his back.

Enleco could no longer care about the pain, and incomparable fear filled his heart.

He didn't want to be a puddle of green slime.

The goblin seemed to see through the fear in Enleco's heart. She said coldly: "Don't worry, as long as you help me, everything will be fine."

"What did you just do?" Enleco asked anxiously.

"Our goblins can produce more than a dozen special secretions in our bodies. Not only are there toxins that can destroy all living things, but there are also glandular fluids that are used to control living things. What I just injected into your body is one of them. You The ability is so strange that it is not under my mental control, so I have to use this most primitive method." The goblin explained.

"But don't worry, this glandular fluid won't do much harm to your body." The goblin added.

But Enleco would never believe everything this goblin said.

Before Enleco could figure out how to deal with this dangerous demonic creature, suddenly the goblin grabbed his body, just like the usual barbarian companion Maclu liked, and carried it like a kitten. He held it in his hand.

The goblin jumped up and jumped into the dense forest.

When Enleco was caught in the hand of this strange creature, he felt like his body was soaring in the clouds.

The cold wind blew in my ears, which was a kind of thrill and excitement that I had never experienced before.

Now Enleco finally knows how stupid he was just now.

He actually made a mistake that a magician should never make.

As a magician, you should try your best to avoid close combat with warriors.

He had never realized this before, because he could launch lightning magic to attack before ordinary warriors took action.

This method has been tried and tested repeatedly.

However, this time the opponent is completely different.

Although this goblin is not proficient in fighting skills, her powerful strength is enough to make up for her lack of skills.

I am afraid that even powerful paladins such as Hagriro, Gorslow, and Milinda will not feel relaxed when facing this goblin.

Just when Enleco was regretting his underestimated enemy, the goblin had already taken him back to the edge of the town.

The beasts were still confronting the undead creatures summoned by Enleco.

Maklu was still lying on the ground.

The goblin threw Enleco to the ground and said coldly: "Let your bones be quiet. You have delayed me for a long time."

The situation was pressing, and Enleco had to look at the goblin's eyes to act.

Withdrawing the power of necromancy magic, the corpses lay on the ground again.

"The guy I'm tracking once stayed here. She kidnapped a lot of people and she probably didn't escape far. However, the fight with you might have alerted that guy. Now we'd better hurry up and get going."

As he spoke, the goblin stamped his foot next to Maclu.

The savage immediately opened his eyes.

He looked at Enleco and then at the goblin.

Apparently this guy still didn't know what was going on.

But when he saw the beasts surrounding him, Macru roared and jumped up. He was groping around, apparently looking for the weapon he had been using.

The beasts also stood up one after another. Although they are controlled by fairies, they still react naturally to danger.

The goblin seemed very impatient, and a strange light flashed twice in her eyes.

The beasts immediately fell silent.

The barbarian Maklu was not much better. He drooped his head and looked dejected.

Enleco was extremely surprised by what he saw.

Although he could see the principle at a glance, he could never do all this.

Even if he had a soul ring in his hand, it would be impossible for him to control the spirit and thoughts of a creature so precisely.

"You'd better calm down your companion. If he is always so impulsive, I don't have the patience to spend time with him chasing that guy." The goblin was still so cold when he spoke, and could not feel the slightest anger.

But even so, Enleco would not think that this goblin was just talking.

"What are you chasing after in such a hurry?" Enleco couldn't help but ask.

"One of my kind has a powerful item in her hand. That item is crucial to us," the goblin said.

Hearing these words, Enleco's heart moved. He was almost certain that what this goblin was looking for was his lost soul ring.

"What do you want that thing for?" Enleco asked.

"Things like that can enhance my power countless times. With it, I can avoid the backlash of my own power." The goblin explained.

"Backlash?" Enleco asked in confusion.

This is something I have never heard of.

Even magicians have limited knowledge about extremely special life forms like goblins.

"We have powerful power, but our lifespan is extremely short. Because when the power reaches a certain level, mental power will backfire. Although this will not kill us, the same goes for the glands that secrete venom after mental disorder. We will also lose control, and that’s when our death will come.”

"However, having that thing is equivalent to having a layer of protection. I can clearly feel that the power of that thing is far superior to us. With it, we can definitely avoid the backlash of power. As long as there is no backlash of power. , our lifespan is quite long.”

When the goblin talked about these things, his tone became slightly excited.

Obviously she is not a cold-blooded creature without any emotion.

At least she has the desire to live and the fear of death.

After saying this, the goblin suddenly bent down and scratched Maclu's chest with his sharp nails.

After licking the bloody nails clean with his tongue, the goblin said: "Wake him up and tell him what happened. I think you can make him understand that it's best to cooperate with me now."

"This will at least save your lives." With the last words said coldly, the goblin led her beasts towards the center of the town.

After waking Macru up again, Enleco spent countless words to convince his fellow barbarians that the two of them now had to become subordinates of a goblin, just like those beasts.

But Enleco also convinced Maclu that this was just to retrieve the soul ring.

Because it was too difficult for the two of them to retrieve the ring.

It may not be easy to convince a barbarian, for these guys are extremely stubborn. But it is easy to deceive a barbarian, after all, they are simple-minded.

It didn't take much effort for Enleco to calm down his fellow barbarians.

After promising to wait until he found the ring and drained the toxins from his body, and then let the barbarians get rid of the hateful goblin, Maclu finally agreed to temporarily become the goblin's subordinates with Enleco.

But when Macru and the goblin met, Enleco was still worried that this simple-minded guy would fight with the goblin who looked much smarter.

After leaving the traveling carriage in a small town, this strange combination headed into the mountains.

Before leaving, the goblin played a scene with Enleco.

Enleco pretended to be a passing magician and saved the city from being besieged by beasts.

Seeing those people who shed tears of gratitude, Enleco felt quite sorry.

But this is the best way to appease those civilians.

What made Enleco feel relieved was that, as the goblin said, her beast did not kill humans.

Except for a few people who were injured because of their escape, everyone else was safe.

After the civilians who had calmed down a little expressed their gratitude to Enleco, the magician who had saved his life, most of them were preparing to leave.

In just a few days, they were attacked twice by wild beasts, and they could no longer bear it.

Most people plan to escape this dangerous place and move to the city.

The owner of the car dealership who asked Enleco to store the carriage handed Enleco a certification document.

With this document, Enleco can get the carriage he wants from any car dealership.

For an ordinary car dealership owner, this can be regarded as the most expensive way to express gratitude.

For Enleco, this is a very convenient thing.

After everything was arranged, Enleco entered the mountains under the welcome of the townspeople.

After turning a few corners, Enleco suddenly felt his body being lifted up.

"You spent too much time." A cold voice came from his ears, and the nails digging deeply into the muscles of his neck made Enleco shudder.

"I will make up for the lost time, believe me." Enleco pleaded helplessly.

Suddenly, he found that except for Maclu and the goblin, the beasts around him had disappeared without a trace.

"Where are your men?" Enleco asked, trying his best to divert the goblin's attention.

But the goblin had no intention of letting him down.

"I asked my subordinates to search everywhere. That guy also brought many subordinates with him. She should leave traces." The goblin said.

"Will she abandon her men and escape alone? Now that she has powerful power, she no longer needs to rely on those beasts for help." Enleco expressed his thoughts.

"It's not that easy. Although we can control other creatures, it is not so easy to make them become our loyal subordinates. We started to collect these subordinates when we were able to control our own power. It was a long process, we You will never give up on your subordinates. What's more, the number of subordinates is also part of the strength. We cannot control the same kind, so the victory or defeat between us is determined by the strength of the body. This is why I need the two of you. Help me and you will be more useful than my subordinates," the goblin explained.

Enleco glanced helplessly at this green creature covered in thin green scales, feeling extremely helpless that he was forced to become this goblin's subordinate.

"Why did you kill my people?" The barbarian Maclu suddenly stood up and roared in anger.

Looking at this stance, it was obvious that he had endured it for a long time, and now he couldn't bear it any longer and had an attack.

"Kill? How could we kill such precious guys like you? In fact, we never kill unless we are in danger." The goblin said calmly.

I don't know why Enleco felt that what this goblin said was true.

"Lying, many of my people were kidnapped by you hateful goblins, and finally we found their mummies." Maklu said, waving his fist. If he was holding the nail stick in his hand, he might have smashed it down with such force. coming.

"Yes, didn't the same kind you are tracking loot a town? Many people are missing in that town." Enleco interrupted.

"Oh, that guy's lifespan is about to end. Although she was attracted by the powerful power of that thing, she must not be sure that she can use that thing to extend her lifespan, so she has to make other preparations. But I think she At most, a dozen people were kidnapped, and the others either ran away because of fear or the matter was exaggerated." The goblin said disapprovingly.

"Other preparations?" Enleco asked.

"Yes, since you can't extend your life, you have to leave offspring no matter what. There are no adult males in our family, so if we want to get pregnant, we can only rely on races that are relatively similar to us—you humans, barbarians, and elves. However, Generally speaking, we will choose barbarians, because their physiques are stronger and our chances of getting pregnant are much higher. If they are humans, we need to prepare more individuals. As for elves with weak physiques, we generally do not choose that." The goblin said calmly, she didn't feel shy at all, as if this was a normal thing.

"Why isn't there a male?" Enleco asked. He hesitated just now, wondering if "man" should be more appropriate.

"Because there is no need, our family lives alone. Except during the feeding period, two of the same species never stay together. Moreover, our lifespans are different, and only those who are about to die are eager to leave offspring. Therefore, I want to find It is almost impossible for two people of the same kind with similar life spans to be opposite sexes. If we want to leave offspring, it is much easier for females. We only need to find a way to conceive and the next generation will grow in our bodies, while males You can’t do that.”

"Therefore, once we give birth to male individuals, we will abandon them. The only ones worth nurturing are females that can continue the race." The goblin explained.

Hearing all this, Enleco was secretly stunned.

He had never imagined that there was such a way to survive.

"But why don't you try to live together. Just like us humans, barbarians and elves?" Enleco asked.

"Because we have power that you don't have. Although we can't control each other, we can know what is going on in each other's minds. Our ancestors also tried to live together, but they finally gave up. In this way, being alone has become the most suitable way of survival for us.”

The goblin's words made Enleco feel extremely heavy.

He suddenly realized how terrible it would be if someone else could peer into his mind and see what was going on in his mind.

"Then my tribesmen were drained dry by you like this?" asked the barbarian Maclu.

"Yes, we will use all kinds of methods to ensure a successful pregnancy. Don't forget that we can control other living things. Whether it is through mental control or the secretion of special glandular fluid, we have many methods." Here, the goblin glanced at Maclu.

The barbarian was obviously startled. He took a step back and asked, "Isn't your lifespan coming to an end soon?"

"Don't worry, I still have at least ten years. I'm still in the growth stage." At this point, the goblin paused: "That's why I need the help of you two. That guy has reached the end of his lifespan." The end. Therefore, her power has reached its peak, and I will never be able to deal with her on my own."

"But, I won't be of any use. I can't even deal with you." Maclu yelled. Although he knew that the goblin in front of him had not reached maturity yet, he still wanted to stay away from this guy.

"You were just careless. I couldn't control you when you were enveloped in green light. But you shouldn't step out of the protection of that green light. Although that green light can block my mental attack, But you can't dispel my control over you. Therefore, once you step out of the green light, you will fall into my hands, and it will be of no use even if you enter the green light again." The goblin said frankly.

"But that guy can't control you as long as you're with me."

"In addition, you also need to increase your strength. Your abilities are very interesting, but you don't know how to fight. I will find a way to make up for your shortcomings." The goblin turned towards Enleco and said .

"Make up? What do you want to do?" Enleco shuddered, and he had an ominous premonition.

"Do you know how our goblin family came into being?" The goblin did not answer Enleco's question, she asked instead.

Enleco shook his head repeatedly. These were not mentioned in any magic books.

"We, the goblin race, are a race created based on you humans during the late war between gods and demons. With mind control, we are the commanders responsible for training and commanding the human corps." The goblin began to tell the glorious history of their ancestors.

But Enleco didn't care about this. The only thing he cared about was the training the goblin said.

In Enleco's memory, nothing good will happen as long as it is related to training.

In the Magic Forest, Chrissy's training was something he would never forget; and Joe was also a guy who was good at training; but what Enleco remembered most was the two disastrous etiquette trainings.

Now whenever he hears the word training, Enleco feels a headache.

"Originally, it is extremely difficult to train a human who is not good at fighting into a qualified warrior in a short period of time. But you are lucky to have a vampire weapon by your side. The vampires can control humans just like us. They A weapon can bring out a person's potential, and I can teach you how to use that weapon. Although your combat effectiveness will not help us, at least it will prevent you from being defeated so easily." said the goblin.

"As long as you give me enough materials, I can create a warrior strong enough to protect myself." Enleco argued quickly.

"Oh? Tell me." The goblin asked coldly without comment.

"If I can find rubies and several other materials, I can create an undead warrior wrapped in flames, which is powerful enough to destroy your men." Enleco said.

Unexpectedly, the goblin shook her head, and suddenly she grabbed Enleco's ankles and lifted him upside down.

When Enleco's head was swollen and he couldn't bear it anymore, she straightened him out again.

"So I said you don't know how to fight at all." The goblin threw Enleco to the ground like a sandbag.

"Your combat method may be useful to your previous opponents because you follow a simple combat method. But those of us who have experienced the war between gods and demons and survived are completely different. In the war between gods and demons, , there will never be a pure magician. Whether they are gods or demons, they can all be teleported to the opponent's back easily, so there is no front or rear at all. Therefore, every warrior participating in the war must be able to protect himself For safety, at least they must be able to escape." said the goblin.

Enleco had never heard of all this.

"What you need to deal with now is my kind. She is as proficient in that kind of fighting as me. You may be the most powerful among us, but your weakness is also the most obvious. She can definitely see this. A little." said the goblin.

Enleco had no choice but to accept the goblin's proposal.

The only thing that comforted him was that the goblin didn't always like to play tricks on him like Joe, and compared with Chris, the goblin wasn't that crazy.

Draw the blood clan's crest on the chest, right arm, feet and forehead.

The raw material of the painting is Enleco's own blood.

For him, a "patient" who is somewhat anemic and whose body has not fully recovered, this is quite a burden.

However, compared with Maclu's suggestion, Enleco would rather choose the method in front of him that is harmful to health.

Out of the barbarian's unique aesthetic point of view, the guy suggested that Enleco tattoo the blood clan's emblem on his body.

Macru himself is covered in tattoos, and there is even a stripe of tattoos under his lips that extends to his throat.

Although the process of cutting the arm to release blood is painful, there is no way around it.

Maclu didn't care about draining a little blood from his body, even the goblin was willing to make sacrifices.

But Enleco knew very well that this kind of vampire magic was extremely dangerous. Except for him, a human being, everyone else here is an inhuman creature.

He couldn't guarantee what unexpected things would happen if he used the blood of barbarians and goblins.

Along the way, in addition to practicing martial arts under the strict supervision of the goblin, Enleco was carried by the goblin on the way.

Although the goblin's nails frightened him, Maclu almost suffocated him to death when he carried him on the road.

Enleco also tried riding on the backs of tigers and bears.

However, he soon understood why these two creatures were not domesticated as means of transportation by human ancestors.

Of course he also tried riding on the goblin's shoulders.

But his calves were pressed tightly against the goblin's plump breasts.

This triggered a series of reactions.

The goblin didn't care at all.

But Enleco felt horrified whenever he thought about the choices these demonic creatures made in order to reproduce.

Although this goblin is far from mature, Enleco still feels that the farther away, the better.

At least hide behind Maclu.

It can be seen that the goblin prefers Maclu, a strong and powerful barbarian, rather than the thin, withered and weak man.

As a result, the possibility of him becoming a mummy is reduced by 10%.

Of course, this does not mean that Enleco abandoned his fellow barbarians.

However, in Enleco's view, if Macru suffered that kind of "persecution" and "died tragically", he seemed to have no need or obligation to avenge him.

Nor can it be said that he saved his fellow barbarians from suffering.
