Chapter 1270: Deep Into the Lair
…
"Great Lord, we are here, right in front of you."
A group of red-skinned goblins who were leading the way suddenly pointed at the rugged mountains protruding from the flaming lake in front of them and started shouting.
The team led by Wang Yan then stopped.
They have been trekking hard for two and a half days on this vast magma lake. The mounts and entourage used are all native residents with excellent fire resistance. Otherwise, they would have been replaced by other species. Roast to death in the heat.
You know, even if the place you are walking on is solidified lava shell, it is still so hot that it can cook eggs in an instant.
"Is that the entrance of the cave?" Wang Yan looked around and couldn't help but twitching at the corner of his mouth, "That Lord of the Flame Lake is really a bad idea..."
It turned out that in the rugged low mountains ahead, there was a relatively large mountain that was completely carved into the shape of a giant insect roaring with its mouth open.
That giant insect is naturally the master of Yanhu Lake.
"Yes, yes, we built that big mountain." Among the group of red-skinned goblins, a relatively strong, leader-like goblin quickly patted his chest and complimented with a hint of pride, "We are the ones who built this mountain." The tribe with the best craftsmanship in the Pianyan Lake area, great lord, if you like, we can transform this mountain into a statue of you!”
Wang Yan felt ashamed for a while. It seemed that arrogance and extravagance were really a behavior that was not limited to any race or region.
He is not the kind of wealthy landowner who has nothing to do, casts statues for himself, and is narcissistic. He has serious things to do when he comes to the hell world.
So he waved his hand casually and said back: "Okay, okay, let's wait until we think of how to modify it later. Hurry up and lead the way."
The team set off again in great force.
Only when he reached this low mountain did Wang Yan realize that it was indeed majestic.
This area is like an isolated island protruding from the Flame Lake, surrounded by magma, and the giant insect's mouth is the entrance and exit of this isolated island.
After walking in, his vision suddenly opened up. Wang Yan found that he seemed to have arrived at a Goblin Kingdom built underground in the mountain. He was amazed by the surrounding construction.
In addition to the dozens of strong goblins captured by Wang Yan, there are also hundreds of red-skinned goblins living in this mountain, including men, women, old and young. It seems that there are many members of this small tribe.
These little monsters, full of architectural talents, were built according to the mountain, creating a huge lair for the Lord of Flame Lake. Its huge area extends from the mountain to hundreds of meters underground.
In order to facilitate the movement of the Lord of Flame Lake, each passage and hall in this huge lair is dozens or even hundreds of meters high. From Wang Yan's human perspective, walking inside feels quite spectacular.
These red-skinned goblins have built their own residences and facilities on the surrounding mountain walls or convex rocks. They can walk left and right and move up and down through floating bridges and liftable iron cages.
Wang Yan even discovered that there were goblins who had built animal pens on the cliffs and raised a kind of cave bats and flame lizards. There were also some goblins who cultivated mushrooms in the gaps of the caves.
Obviously, a unique ecological system has been formed here. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a small town under the control of the master of Yanhu Lake.
At this time, the red-skinned goblins were stunned when they saw Wang Yan leading the army in.
Then, under the call of the captive leader, all the red-skinned goblin villagers gathered in the circular square in the middle of the cave. They prostrated on the ground, waiting for the fate of Wang Yan, the new master.
"From now on, this flaming lake, this lair, and everything here, including you, belong to this lord alone."
Wang Yan glanced at the goblin villagers coldly, and showed his strong coercion by the way. The low-level goblins were so frightened that they trembled, knocked their heads on the ground, and did not dare to move.
He had no intention of bullying these low-level creatures, but since he was in the hell world, it was better to follow the survival rules here.
Only by showing strength can these low-level creatures be completely conquered, and a lot of management trouble can be saved in the future. After all, the indigenous residents who want to exploit resources here and adapt to the local environment will obviously have an advantage.
Moreover, low-level creatures in hell like goblins can only obtain shelter and living space by relying on strong men. This is the relationship between them and the Lord of the Flame Lake.
But now the Lord of Flame Lake has been replaced by a new master, Wang Yan. In some respects, Wang Yan, the new master, is naturally more kind and humane than the cruel Lord of Flame Lake or other hell lords.
"It's your lord, we will be your most loyal slaves from now on." The goblin leader quickly led the other goblins to flatter Wang Yan.
"Now I want to take a look at my wealth." Wang Yan nodded and motioned for the goblin leader to lead the way.
The Goblin leader quickly stood up and walked ahead: "Master, please come this way."
Wang Yan, with his two battle pets and barbarian followers, followed the goblin and began to walk inside. Leaving behind Lord Chihuo and the captive goblin who was dozens of meters tall, he began to teach the hundreds of goblin villagers present some rules.
Wang Yan has no interest in asking about this kind of matter. Anyway, it is enough to leave it to a guy like Lord Chihuo who enjoys it.
"Humble goblin, tell me your name." Wang Yan imitated Lord Chihuo, who treated his servants with arrogance, and asked the goblin leader who was leading the way.
"My name is Can'er Hachi, my lord." Can'er Hachi, the goblin leader, nodded and bowed, and pointed to his left ear, "You see, one of my ears was bitten by my opponent during the leader duel."
The election of the leader of the goblin tribe, like other tribes in hell, is full of blood and violence. After all, only the strongest creatures can lead the race and survive in a dangerous world like hell.
Moreover, the bloody elections of leaders or warriors of all generations will also become a pastime for their rulers in their spare time, which is exactly the same as the gladiator period on Earth.
Wang Yan looked at the goblin leader, who was about the strength of the early A-level and was very smart, so he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Follow me well and take charge of this nest for me. In return, your tribe will definitely become one of the most powerful goblin races on this continent."
When Can'er Hachi heard this, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, thanking him profusely, and expressed his loyalty to Wang Yan on behalf of the entire tribe.
Wang Yan's promise, even if it was just a promise, was a great gift to such a low-level creature.
Goblins are creatures that can reach C-level and B-level, which is already the top existence. A goblin leader like Can'er Hachi who can reach A-level is almost the limit of the entire race.
If such a weak creature is not protected by a powerful master, a group of hellhounds that suddenly break in may put them in danger of extinction.
Can'er Hachi is naturally very clear about this.
And it is obvious that the new master in front of him who can even kill the Lord of Yanhu is definitely an extremely solid backer.
