Dungeon King: A Lady Knight Offered by My Goblins

34 Chapter34-Minotaur Camp and Defense Tower

Upon hearing Ethan's teasing, Whitty's body began to glow with a golden pattern, and in a moment, his round belly disappeared.

Ethan gave Whitty a thumbs-up.

They chatted casually as Whitty, filled with excitement, introduced Ethan to the world it knew about.

As a newborn, Whitty was naturally curious about everything, and Ethan listened attentively.

After a while, Whitty seemed a bit parched from all the talking.

While he was drinking, Ethan opened up the system, intending to check out the newly unlocked buildings.

However, he found the world chat channel continuously flashing.

[Orc Dark lord: Anyone need a blueprint for a building? I have an extra one. Selling it at a low price.]

[Undead Knight Dark lord: What type of building?]

[Orc Dark lord: Defensive. You can build a defense tower to protect your camp. It's a great bargain.]

[Undead Knight Dark lord: I've already got enough defensive structures. Not interested for now.]

[Orc Dark lord: Are all these dark lords not online? Given the current situation, if you don't want to be robbed, you need a defense tower to protect your home. I only have one! Hurry!]

[Blood Phoenix Dark lord: @Orc Dark lord. Asking the price politely.]

[Orc Dark lord: Let's talk privately.]

Ethan immediately opened his own building menu, but it was still the same buildings as before: blacksmith, wooden hut, and some other life-based buildings.

He was a bit hesitant at this point.

Although he didn't know how strong this defense tower was, having it would be better than nothing.

However, the price was something he was not willing to part with easily.

After a while, Orc Dark lord announced in the world channel:

[Blueprint sold! Blueprint sold!]

It seemed that Blood Phoenix Dark lord bought the blueprint, so Ethan had to give up.

Suddenly, the ally interface flashed.

The only dark lord who was an ally with Ethan was Allie.

[Succubus Dark lord: Ethan, come quickly. I've found a camp. It looks like it used to belong to Minotaur Dark lord. There are a lot of orcs moving things around.]

Ethan was excited and flew over with Whitty.

On a hillside, he saw Allie waving her hand incessantly at the sky.

Ethan landed quietly beside her.

Seeing Ethan, Allie jumped excitedly, her chest bouncing as if it was going to pop out of her low-cut dress.

She pointed at the camp at the foot of the mountain and said, "I found this place while exploring the surrounding area today. When I first got here, there were a few Minotaurs in the camp, but now they've all been killed by these orcs."

Following Allie's finger, Ethan looked at the camp.

As she said, there were a few Minotaurs lying in pools of blood.

"These orcs are still moving stuff. They carried out a big box from one of the wooden houses, and it took 4 of them to barely lift it. I bet there are lots of treasures inside. And did you see the world channel? The Orc Dark Lord suddenly selling defense blueprints, I suspect he found it here."

Ethan nodded in agreement.

Allie's suspicion held some weight.

It was indeed suspicious for him to actively sell something as rare as a blueprint.

And these orcs were clearly under someone's orders, as for how he knew about Minotaur dark lord's camp, that was a mystery.

Allie suddenly spun around and suggested, "Ethan, why don't we try too? This orc dark lord is no match for you, and besides, this loot is rightfully ours."

Ethan pondered for a moment and replied, "That's a good idea. But first, I want to see where orc dark lord's camp is."

Allie's eyes sparkled and the way she looked at Ethan subtly changed, "Ethan, I'm so glad to be your ally, or else... I can't even imagine. Just can't!"

Ethan couldn't help but chuckle.

Allie then summoned her scout squad, instructing them to tail the orcs to see where they were heading.

"Yes, ma'am!" The squad immediately dispersed, each finding a target to follow.

After they were gone, an audacious idea popped into Allie's head.

She quietly shared her plan with Ethan.

Finishing, she looked excitedly at Ethan, "So, what do you think? Isn't it a great idea?"

Ethan contemplated for a while, then said, "Let's do it. Now."

"Great."

Allie jogged down to the foot of the hill, wearing a face full of panic as she ran towards the orcs.

"Help me, please help me!"

She even kept looking back as if being chased by a beast.

The orcs guarding the perimeter were immediately alert.

"Who goes there! Stop!"

Allie smirked.

The first step of her plan was successful.

Then she turned back to them, looking pitiful and terrified.

"I... I'm being chased by a dangerous beast. Can you save me?"

A pattern emerged in Allie's eyes, a Succubus pattern. "Suggestion."

In the orcs' minds, it was just as Allie said - there was a beast right behind her.

The three orc warriors instantly reassured her, "No problem, no problem! We've got you. Nothing will harm you with us around."

Allie nodded, walked into the camp, and the orc warriors were instantly taken by her.

Their coarse hands touched her, Allie looked at them playfully.

Allie's Succubus pattern morphed, "Illusion" plunging them into their own minds. In their world, Allie was all fiery passion, catering to their every wish.

The bodies of the three orc warriors gradually shrunk like deflating balloons over time.

Allie then dispelled the illusion and the orc warriors collapsed unconscious.

If she were to kill them right now, the orc dark lord would definitely notice and their plans would be hindered.

Ethan appeared next.

Allie gestured towards Ethan and they pressed on.

Their tactics were the same this time, except for Ethan activating his divine dragon form.

The remaining orc warriors didn't question why they hadn't received any signals from the guard orcs or why the two of them were here.

Following the same strategy, most of the orc warriors in the camp ended up deflated, groaning weakly on the ground.

Meanwhile, Allie's energy was stronger than ever, Ethan could even feel her power continuously increasing.

At this point, most of the orc warriors in the camp had lost their fighting strength.

The Succubus pattern in Allie's eyes hadn't disappeared yet.

To avoid any stragglers, she went through every tent in the camp.

Once they confirmed that there were no enemies in this area, they moved forward.

They soon reached the vicinity of the altar.

The surrounding structures had changed from tents to a series of bizarre stone pillars.

Each pillar was carved into the shape of a bull's head, painted in various colors, with a glowing bull's head at the top.

The bull's eyes sparkled with a strange light.

Ethan, curious, reached out to touch one.

Instantly, the color in the bull's eye changed to red and it began to charge up an energy ball, which it then blasted at Ethan.

Allie was taken aback.

With the support of dozens of orc warriors, her physical strength had also increased.

With a single palm, she shattered the stone pillar.

At this point, Ethan emerged from the smoke, coughing.

"Are you alright?"

Ethan met Allie's concerned gaze and shook his head, looking at the blackened blast marks on his golden dragon scales.

It was a close call.

Thankfully, he hadn't deactivated his divine dragon form, or else it would have been a disaster.

Looking at the surrounding pillars, Ethan guessed that these must be the defense towers.

Just as Allie was about to start dismantling all the defense towers, Ethan held her back.

During the attack just now, only the stone pillar that Ethan touched reacted.

This meant that the Minotaur dark lord had set them up like switches when constructing the defense towers.

Moreover, after the defense tower attacked Ethan, the glow from the other pillars dimmed significantly, likely having depleted some energy.

With Allie's puzzled gaze on him, Ethan touched each pillar in turn until none of them initiated an attack.

Just as Ethan thought, these defense towers had a limited amount of energy, or perhaps the Minotaur dark lord's energy reserves were only so much.

Just as Ethan was contemplating what powered the energy in these pillars, a roar came from the front.

"Who are you! Where are the other orcs!"
