Tower Defense Game: My Kingdom of Eternal Life

"Human...?"

When the goblin opposite heard his identity, his expression became even more grim.

"Here comes another parasite!"

"Drive him away!"

"Yes, yes, drive him away! Don't let him in!"

"Don't be fooled, he can't be human! There is only the Abyss Devil behind that passage, he must also be a devil in disguise!

I’ve heard that what the devil of the abyss likes most is to confuse people!”

"Um?"

The goblins' violent reaction was a bit abnormal, and Cheng Shen vaguely guessed something.

No explanation yet.

A seemingly older goblin stood out from the opposite side and shouted to the others in a low voice:

"What are you arguing about! Don't be afraid to let him hear it! He can even block Elder Garth's attack. Even if he is not the Abyss Demon, he is very powerful! And we need to find out what is behind that passage!"

"The ancestors told us before he died that once the passage is opened, the end will come! But more than seven hundred years have passed, and only those humans have ever been to the back of the passage! We have never known anything about it!"

"..."

After the quarrel, the goblins calmed down. They were still uneasy about Cheng Shen's appearance, but they felt more disgusted and repelled.

Cheng Shen could tell that what they rejected was his own identity.

rather than myself as a person.

Just like.

There was once a group of humans who did such hateful things to them.

"Let my daughter go first!"

The goblin blocked by the magic shield pulled his neck and roared.

"I didn't hurt her."

Cheng Shen explained calmly, put down the female goblin he was holding, and used a force of magic power to slowly send her forward.

This scene.

Let the goblins' nervous expressions relax a little.

"Human... you came through that passage, can you tell us what is on the other side of the passage?"

At this time the older goblin asked.

Cheng Shen thought for a while and said vaguely: "Disaster and redemption."

"ah?"

The goblins looked at each other.

Cheng Shen shook his head and did not answer the question directly. He was not yet sure about the situation of these goblins. From the current situation, it could be inferred that they were probably the descendants of the slaves who were sealed in the mines.

But so long has passed.

They may have long been accustomed to living in caves and don't want to go out.

Moreover, the moment he discovered their identity as goblins, Cheng Shen was already planning how to absorb them into his territory.

He is currently short of scientific research talents.

gunpowder mill,

Shenjifang,

They are all high-end buildings.

However, due to the fact that he has never recruited a special scientific research unit, the research progress of these two buildings has been very slow. If this group of goblins can be recruited into his territory, it will greatly fill this gap.

But the premise is,

It can solve the root problem of their rejection of their human identity.

"Do you want to get out of here?"

he asked directly.

"leave?"

The goblins suddenly became commotion. The older goblin knocked the iron staff in his hand, and then looked at Cheng Shen with white eyes, his tone a little uneasy.

"We have been trapped in this dark underground since we were born. We have only heard about the splendor and prosperity of the outside world. If we can, of course we want to leave here.

But we have tried countless times.

All failed.

And those attempts cost us dearly."

He said seriously.

"Maybe the outside world is not as good as you think..." Cheng Shen thought of the strangely polluted world, but did not say anything. He just said: "As you can see, behind me is the passage out of here."

"What!?"

"Impossible! You devil of the abyss, don't even think of deceiving us! There are only terrible monsters and pollution behind that passage!"

"I just said he was the Devil of the Abyss in disguise! The secret was revealed before he even said a few words! He wanted to trick us all into that passage and die!"

"..."

The goblins were excited.

"I want to emphasize one point." Cheng Shen said solemnly, "Devils are products of hell. There are only disasters in the abyss. If you want to talk about demons, you need to go to the dark place to find them."

abyss,

hell,

Dark place.

In this chaotic world are three completely different planes.

Same reason.

Devils and devils are not the same race either.

Devils are monsters brewed from the most negative emotions in the hearts of living beings. They are indeed good at playing with people's hearts. But they are different from the demon kings in the dark land who control blood and fire and wage war everywhere.

The abyss only spreads plague and disaster.

At least.

Arjika has never heard of an intelligent race being born in the abyss.

His serious answer made the other party lose his voice. The older goblin coughed lightly and said quickly: "Actually, we have also sent people to explore that passage, but the team members who participated in the exploration have become...

"

He couldn't bear to continue talking.

"That's what I'm saying."

Cheng Shen looked at them.

"Although that passage can lead to the outside world, normal people cannot get through it at all.

but.

I think the fact that I can stand in front of you has made it clear."

"Can you take us through there!?"

Someone asked immediately.

The older goblin also understood Cheng Shen's words, and his expression was very calm, but he suppressed the urge to ask, "We can't trust you about whether you can leave here. We have to ask the Temple of Sacrifice before we can."

"..."

As soon as these words came out.

Cheng Shen clearly felt that the atmosphere on the opposite side seemed to have frozen.

Each of the goblins gritted their teeth, but looked around cautiously as if they were worried about being discovered.

"Sacrifice to the temple?"

He said a little strangely.

"The Temple of Sacrifice was established by humans who followed our ancestors and hid underground. Their descendants have also passed it down. They hold the key to the Demon Sealing Formation and have always protected our safety."

He was afraid that Cheng Shen wouldn't understand and explained it to him in detail.

"I see."

Cheng looked at the other party deeply.

With his wisdom, he couldn't figure out that the existence of this sacrificial temple was the source of the goblins' hatred of humans.

The other party didn't bring it up deliberately with any simple thoughts...

"Then take me to meet the people in this temple. Maybe I can convince them to let you leave here."

He said simply.

Now that the root cause of the problem has been determined, the matter can be easily solved. The old man's intention is very clear. He and the Temple of Worship will listen to whoever wins the fight.

Cheng Shen's idea is also very simple.

Wow.

The layers of crystal walls in front of you automatically dispersed into free elements.

Cheng Shen walked forward calmly, and the goblins across from him subconsciously took a step back. Someone immediately threw a metal bracelet over, and then said warily: "We can only believe you if you wear the forbidden magic ring!"

The elder goblin immediately explained: "This thing will only temporarily seal your magic power and will not cause you physical harm. We will unlock it after we determine that you are not a threat.

We are unable to confirm your identity and hope you understand our uneasiness."

What he said was kind and gentle.

Cheng Shen didn't respond. He raised his hand to pick up the demon-forbidden ring on the ground, looked at it, and then put it directly on his wrist.

This thing really works.

A moment.

Cheng Shen found that he could no longer sense any elemental energy.

His mental power seemed to be shackled and unable to be used, and his magic level was directly limited to that of an ordinary person.

The expressions of the goblins opposite suddenly relaxed.

But the next moment.

Bang!

There was a loud bang.

The metal ring on Cheng Shen's wrist exploded into countless pieces.

"This thing is of no use to me, just leave."

Cheng Shen said expressionlessly.

The goblins drew their weapons in a nervous moment, and the older goblin quickly stood up. He comforted the others, and the horror and fear in his eyes quickly disappeared, "We have offended, please come here."

Follow the directions.

Cheng Shen walked through a winding passage engraved with dense magic lines.

"Who drew these formations?"

he asked casually.

"Uh..." Weiman hesitated for a moment and said: "The original formation was arranged by the first-generation high priest of the temple, and was later modified by more than ten generations of high priests... Don't worry, we won't use it to attack you.

!”

"oh."

Cheng Shen said without any strange expression.

soon.

The passage comes to an end.

After several rounds of inspections by guards.

Cheng Shen left the temple that the goblins had specially built for this abyss passage and came to the area where they lived.

This is an extremely wide underground space. Square-shaped stone houses are built upward layer by layer in a ladder-like manner, enclosing the entire living city in the shape of an iron barrel, with a towering temple built in the center.

The huge orange-red ruby ​​​​suspended on the top of the temple like the sun, emitting a cold light. Circles of spiral lines were engraved on the gem, and it rotated from time to time, just like an eyeball constantly scanning the city.

"This is where we live."

Under the gaze of his eyes, Weiman's tone unconsciously lowered.

"It seems you are not having a good time."

Cheng Shen said.

His eyes swept across the city unaffected by the dark vision. In the stone houses filled with depression and coldness, he could see goblins who were thin, stunted, and dressed in rags, hurriedly going around.

There are also guards wearing armor patrolling the city.

Most of them are goblins too.

As for humans.

Cheng Shen searched for a long time before he saw one in Shangwei near the temple.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the temple. At first glance, he thought it was a complete replica of the temple in the land of gargoyles.

Not just like.

It's just a replica.

"Well, it's good to be able to survive. After a while, when we enter the ice period, we don't know how many people will starve to death and freeze to death."

Weiman sighed heavily.

"Living underground with food sources is really going to be an important issue."

Cheng Shen nodded.

He saw that a large area in the north of the city had been reclaimed into neat farmland, and a kind of luminous plant was planted in it, which was probably their food, but it looked like the yield was not optimistic.

"We had enough food!"

Someone suddenly said angrily.

"Exactly! If those damn humans hadn't asked us to hand over most of our food, many of our people would not have died!"

"Silence!"

Weiman promptly stopped their complaints.

He pointed to the giant eye in the distance and shouted sternly: "The omniscient eye is watching us! Do you want your relatives to be affected?"

"The all-seeing eye?"

Cheng Shen knew that Weiman was deliberately leaking information to him again.

Listening to his words, it seems that this giant eye can monitor and monitor everything in this city at any time.

but.

Cheng Shen turned his head and glanced at the magic lines everywhere.

He can naturally tell that the so-called omniscient eye does not have the function of surveillance at all.

Just a decoration.

What really monitors this city are the hidden formations.

"You've suffered the loss of being uneducated again."

Cheng Shen sighed in his heart.

but.

He didn't expose it.

Instead, he said: "Since you can make this underground area so gorgeous, why don't you try to dig outside?"

"Sacrifice to the temple is not allowed."

Weiman Road.

"Our place is the only safe area underground. No matter whether you dig up or down, you will dig up terrible things... Maybe we have tried what you said, but we all failed in the end."

"Understood."

Cheng Shen nodded.

He understood that it was certainly not the helpless situation that Weiman said, but another layer of meaning hidden in his words.

Maybe Weiman can't be sure, but with such a weird situation, anyone would suspect that the people worshiping the temple most likely have the power to control the pollution of the abyss. It's just that the painful experience made them afraid to try.

The arrival of Cheng Shen.

It also happened to be an opportunity for them to challenge the Temple of Sacrifice.

"Elder Weiman!"

"Elder Garth!"

After entering the city, Cheng Shen could hear greetings from time to time. The group of goblins following him had a high status in the entire ethnic group.

It's just that their clothes are no better than ordinary goblins.

Cheng Shen glanced at the numb and painful faces and frowned slightly, but Weiman didn't say anything. Cheng Shen didn't speak until they saw a young goblin squatting on the ground in front of a stone house.

.

"Ram, how is your mother's condition?"

Weiman called softly.

The extremely childish goblin raised his head. His face was stained, and his eyes were full of pain and vulnerability. He shook his head blankly, and said with some fear of looking directly: "I don't know, dad asked me not to enter the house..."

"Oops!"

Weiman's expression suddenly changed. He ignored Cheng Shen and hurriedly walked towards the stone house. When he came to the door, he kicked the heavy door open with a bang.

"Brie, stop!"

He shouted loudly.

The goblins around him rushed over, and Cheng Shen followed suit. He saw two thin goblins lying down and standing in the narrow and simple stone house. One of the male goblins was pointing a sharp knife at the other.

people.

The strange thing was that Cheng Shen could not see pain on the face of the lying female goblin, only relief.

Brie, on the other hand, became panicked as the elders broke in.

"Wei, Elder Weiman, why are you here?"

He hid the dagger behind his back in panic.

Weiman seemed to be really angry, his gray-green skin turned red, "Are you crazy! I have strictly prohibited anyone from trading with the executioner of the Temple of Sacrifice! How dare you do such a thing!"

"I, I...I don't want to! But the ice season is coming soon and there is no food at home! Do you want me to watch Ram starve to death? And Lena has already agreed to this! She allowed me to do this

!”

Brie yelled with red eyes.

"What's going on?"

Cheng Shen couldn't tell for a moment whether this was arranged by Weiman or something else.
