Chapter 598: The Lord and the Lost Crown
Hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the subordinates bowed to accept the order and started to move around.
For a while, the footsteps of the subordinates, the muffled sound of turning over the corpses, and the collision of rusted weapons and armor were continuous, and began to rise and fall in various parts of the cave.
As for Lei Xiao, surrounded by Lian and Hong Ye, he was slowly advancing in the silent army of goblins.
Because of the scattered bones here, it is too dense.
Therefore, when Lei Xiao was moving forward, he focused all his attention on his feet at all times, so as not to trip over the bones in front of him.
Not far away, a guy wearing a pointed witch hat obviously didn't notice this, after tripping over a goblin's skull without accident.
Not only the witch hat on the head flew out again.
What's more, together with Bai Wei, who was defenseless beside her, came to a solid big horse party, which caused the latter, who was already a little nervous, to blow his fur with his big fluffy white tail.
"Fortunately, there are no necromancers here, otherwise, if they suddenly start to move, I'm afraid even I will be scared out of my wits... I don't know if there are disposable diapers in this world."
Seeing this hilarious episode, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, and then squatted down in front of a goblin skeleton.
Observe carefully, the mottled armor on this skeleton is also severely corroded.
However, it is relatively well-made, and it is a level higher than that worn by most of the goblin corpses around. It should be at least a commander above the squadron leader.
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao caressed the mottled armor in front of him, feeling its rough texture, and opened the attribute bar of this armor casually.
[Name: Damaged Goblin Centurion Light Armor] [Original: Goblin Centurion Standard Armor]
[Grade: Damaged] [Original: Tier 2? Excellent (Green)]
[Defense Strength: Damaged] [Original: ]
[Additional effect: None]
[Remarks: Compared with ordinary soldiers, the standard armor of a centurion of a certain Goblin tribe is made of iron ingots mixed with a small amount of meteorite steel. Its defense and flexibility are higher than that of ordinary soldiers. Bryn Armor.
"Centurion is an official title of some races, it's no different from a squadron leader. It seems that my guess was right."
Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao pulled out a mottled broadsword that was half inserted into the ground next to the bones.
Due to the severe corrosion, the blade of this ancient wide-edged sword has been completely deflected. There is a thick layer of brown-red rust on it.
Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao opened the attribute bar of the broad-edged sword again.
Name: Damaged Goblin Centurion BroadswordOriginal: Brave Goblin Centurion Broadsword
[Grade: Damaged] [Original: Tier 2? Excellent (Green)]
[Attack Strength: Damaged] [Original: ]
[Additional Effect: Damaged] [Original: Sharp "Physical Penetration Increased by 10%"]
[Remarks: The standard weapon of a centurion of a certain Goblin tribe, its sharp edges and corners have been smoothed over the long years, and the mottled blade seems to be silently telling a past that has been lost in the long river of time.
"Like the other weapons around, are they all worthless items?"
Throwing away the long sword in his hand, Lei Xiao patted the dust on his hands, and stood up again.
"My lord, judging from the scale, at least one established Goblin army has been buried here."
At this time, Lian, who had been standing beside Lei Xiao, bowed slightly and said.
Speaking of this, Lian pointed to a cave wall not far away, and then continued: "And, judging from the current situation, this Goblin army is obviously trapped to death in a more spacious cave. in the endless passage."
Looking in the direction of Lian's finger, Lei Xiao noticed.
There are quite a few skeletons of Goblin soldiers, all leaning against the cave wall in a crooked sitting posture, which is obviously a sign of death from exhaustion.
"My lord, Lian is right."
On the other side, Ye Cang, who had been investigating at the forefront just now, said in an elegant voice from behind Lei Xiao: "This subordinate has already made a circle here, and this is indeed an endless passage with a perfect loop. At least ten times the passage we were in just now."
"Exactly as I expected."
Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao walked carefully among the bones scattered all over the place, while thinking thoughtfully: "Back then, when the goblins conquered these endless lands, they obviously paid a lot of price."
"What the lord said is very true. Judging from the situation just now, the bones of these ancient goblins have been left here because the existing goblins have not found the entrance to this endless passage."
Hong Ye's sass sounded crisply, and he added: "In other words, after a long time, we are the first group of people who came here besides this goblin army."
"Since the goblin army is buried in this hidden passage, what will happen in the other hidden passage?"
Chaoyan, who was holding the witch's hat in her arms, came up to her with her big eyes blinking flickeringly and said, "It really makes people curious."
After finishing speaking, the girl said "Yeah", and her feet stopped again, and she was about to turn upside down towards the tall and tall Hong Ye.
The latter calmly turned his body slightly to one side, while avoiding Chao Yan's small body.
Taking advantage of the situation, he grabbed the collar of his neck, picked it up like a kitten, and gently placed it on a relatively spacious open space next to him.
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao couldn't help but smile.
I have to say that without this Erhanizi, the journey would obviously become much more boring.
"Don't worry, let's finish exploring here first, and then go to another hidden passage that has not been discovered by goblins."
Looking at the shocked look on Chao Yan's face, Lei Xiao smiled lightly and said, "Okay, let's continue."
Just like that, under Lei Xiao's signal.
A group of people walked and stopped in this spacious and endless cave full of bones. After about ten minutes, a Goblin skeleton in a very special position caught Lei Xiao's attention.
Under the reflection of Ariel's brilliant magic light ball, Lei Xiao found out.
This skeleton was sitting against the wall of the cave, with its head hanging low, surrounded by half-moon-shaped skeletons of rare plate-armored goblin soldiers.
Moreover, until the moment of death, a considerable part of these plate armor goblin guards maintained the standard alert posture holding spears, still loyally guarding the special goblin in the center.
Even the skulls with empty eyes exposed in the half-closed helmets worn by these goblin guards seemed to reveal a touch of firmness.
Although they died with their bodies, they still faithfully fulfilled their mission until their deaths.
All in all, this scene stood out from the crowd of ordinary Goblin soldiers lying around.
Seeing this, Lei Xiao and the other subordinates couldn't help showing a mix of surprise and respect on their faces.
The goblin family has always been known for their cunning and insidiousness. When facing the enemy, they often beat them to death if they can beat them well. If they can't beat them, they immediately run away.
Unexpectedly, in this endless passage, such an awe-inspiring scene can still be seen.
"My lord, it seems that the goblin in the center is the leader of this goblin army."
Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Hong Ye who was beside him said in surprise, "I have to say, this really refreshed my subordinate's views on these green-skinned insects."
"It is indeed an amazing and unforgettable scene, but having said that, every race on the continent has its own meaning of existence, especially those who have gone through the strange and unpredictable blank era and can continue to this day, obviously have something unique."
Nodding slightly to the dragon woman in front of him, Lei Xiao smiled lightly and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look together."
"As you order, my lord."
Hearing the sound, Hong Ye's gaze was like a torch, and he stood beside Lei Xiao again.
Surrounded by all the subordinates, Lei Xiao went straight to the special goblin in the center, and began to observe carefully.
I saw the skeleton of this Goblin sitting cross-legged, keeping his head down, as if he was meditating or lamenting.
In addition, he was not wearing armor, but a dark red robe.
Even though time has passed, the dark red robe has also become mottled, and even the corners have rotted and blackened.
But Lei Xiao still saw extremely exquisite gold silk embroidery patterns on the dusty robe, which was not common on goblins.
"The identity of this goblin is really not simple."
Seeing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.
"My lord, look at this goblin's arms, it seems to be holding something!"
Immediately afterwards, Chaoyan's surprised voice came over.
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao squatted down and began to observe further.
Just as Erhanizi said, under the dark red robe on the abdomen of the goblin skeleton, there was a bulging protruding piece.
"Ye Cang, go and see what that is."
Standing up again, Lei Xiao nodded to the dark priest beside him.
"The subordinates are willing to serve the adults."
Ye Cang bowed slightly, and the metal skull pendant on his neck immediately reflected a silver light.
For him as a dark healer, these bones are obviously not a problem.
Next, Ye Cang squatted down, first slightly moved the two arm bones of the sitting goblin, and then lifted a corner of the dark red robe.
As the bulging robe was lifted off, ancient dust was scattered in all directions.
Under the reflection of the magic ball of light, a golden object immediately caught the eyes of everyone present.
"It's actually a crown?"
Seeing the golden object clearly, Ariel raised her willow eyebrows and said in surprise: "Could it be that this skeleton was once a goblin king?"
"Things are really getting more and more interesting."
Looking at the crown reflecting the brilliant brilliance on its surface, Lei Xiao squatted down again, and then opened its attribute bar.
Name: Crown of Vertical and Horizontal
[Race: Goblin]
[Function: Symbol of Kingship]
[Remarks: This is a long-lost goblin crown. Its last owner was a great goblin king. Missed during a crypt exploration operation.
It is undeniable that, according to Goblin tradition, the owner of this crown is the Goblin king.
"It's really a goblin's crown."
Looking at the text introduction on the property bar, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao's eyes fell on the last line of text.
He thought to himself, "According to Goblin tradition, the owner of this crown is the king of Goblins"? Interesting, I don't know if it can still be honored now? "
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao immediately signaled Ye Cang to take the crown off the skeleton.
"My lord, my subordinates and others have checked it, and there is nothing abnormal about this crown."
After a while, after Hong Ye, Ju Bai, Ye Cang, Chao Yan and other magic powerhouses inspected it in turn, Lian wiped it clean again and handed it to Lei Xiao respectfully.
"very good."
Taking over the heavy crown, Lei Xiao began to observe carefully while feeling its thick and slightly cool touch.
I saw that its whole body was golden in color, completely forged from metal, with extremely exquisite patterns engraved all over its body, echoing those on the crimson robe.
The center of the crown is also inlaid with a crystal-clear green gemstone, which makes it look exquisite and luxurious, just like an excellent top-level artwork.
"As expected of a crown, it is really extraordinary."
Seeing this, Lei Xiao slightly nodded in amazement.
At this time, on Lei Xiao's palm, the goblin's crown exuded a dazzling golden light, as if silently telling a glorious past.
For a moment, combined with the atmosphere of a mess and corpses everywhere, people can't help but feel a sense of embarrassment.
"Isn't this a lost crown? I hope it can shine in my ~ However, such a long time has passed, and I hope this gob Lin, I wish I hadn't forgotten the crown."
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao shook his head helplessly, and continued to think: "This crown is only for goblins, judging from the circumference of the head, adults must not be able to wear it, so let's put it away for now .
Just like that, after putting the crown into the space bracelet, Lei Xiao immediately said, "Okay, let's continue exploring."
"As you order, my lord."
On the other side, all the subordinates bowed in unison and said in unison.
After that, the group found no other valuable items, and finally left this endless passage and returned to the starting point just now.
"Next, let's go to another hidden endless passage."
Nodding to the subordinates, Lei Xiao once again took his steps towards the chaotic vortex ahead.
