Chapter 1184: ? Succubus City Lord

How should I say, the underground creatures in this dungeon have a unique attitude towards humans.
In the past, underground creatures saw human beings as food, and naturally there is no need to say more about their attitudes, but although the monsters here saw human beings surprised and guarded, they did not show any particularly obvious hostility.
I don’t know if the name of the Supreme Mage is more useful, or the goblin didn’t understand the meaning of the word at all. He walked around the two with his short legs a few times, as if he didn’t see any threats, and then gave The two lead the way.
"I can only take you outside the city lord's palace, but if the city lord sees you, I can't say it."
The goblin's legs are too short, and it looks awkward when he walks. The road in this dungeon is very flat, like a vehicle can pass.
Su Ming was non-committal about this, and winked to indicate Xiao Ka to follow the goblin together. The other party took four or five steps, and humans almost needed to take one step, so they had time to observe their surroundings.
Whether it is farmland or housing on the roadside, there are always underground creatures who cast curious eyes on the two of them, just pure curiosity, as if they don't know that humans can eat.
And the two also saw a small number of creatures here. However, the Balrog who belonged to the elite warrior class in Hell were selling grilled mushrooms on the roadside at this time. The snake-tailed snake monster is also considered a powerful demon. They are picking dung for farming.
How to say it, it can only be said to be weird, because these demons have no reaction to humans, as if they have seen the world.
Does this city look like steampunk on the surface, but it is actually an underground Buddha country? The monsters living here are too orderly and too Buddhist, right?
Goblins account for a large proportion of the urban population. These short-legged creatures can be seen everywhere, and they are all dressed up like human beings, but look at the oil on their bodies and the various tools in their hands. Belongs to the working class.
They work in the factory buildings with large chimneys, and when they pass the door, they can hear the ping-pong-pong-pong sound inside.
The street lights in the underground city are all on, indicating that there is electricity. On the roadside there is a small table with free drinking water, which looks the same as the one in the human park, indicating that they have running water. These underground creatures seem to be copying the development trajectory of human society, but the technology tree has a lot of steam power traces.
Seeing a steam car driving by, Su Ming carefully observed its production process. I have to say that the goblin technology is still shocking, although all parts of the broken car including the horn are screaming, and the car is screaming. The boiler with white smoke is more like a big bomb, but this car can run.
"What do these factories produce?" He asked the goblin who led the way, and pointed to a family workshop-style industrial area on the side of the road.
The goblin quickly moved upside down on his two short legs, and raised his hand to wipe his sweat: "Do everything, we can make the daily necessities that you humans have, and we also do business with some underground chambers of commerce, such as this one. The factory, it produces steam flashlights, which can be sold to other dungeons in exchange for a lot of food. You said it was here to negotiate terms or something, should you also want to do business?"
"That's true, but steam...flashlight?" The expression on Su Ming's face is very strange, what the is that?
The goblin who led the way loosened his bow tie, and a proud smile appeared on the green face: "How? I haven't seen it, everything can be steamed, I secretly tell you, if you want to do trade between dungeons, If you have enough capital and self-insurance, then you can make a lot of money by purchasing steam wine from us and shipping it elsewhere to sell."
Su Ming shrugged. He only knew that the kobolds of Azeroth had the black technology of using mushrooms to make wine. He didn't expect that the underground creatures here also had it.
Speaking of steam wine, it is probably something between human sparkling wine and carbonated beverages, but after seeing the growing environment of these mushrooms, he felt that this wine was not worth buying.
"If you do business, what do you want from humans?"
Su Ming took a step and narrowed the distance with the goblin, looking down at its head hair like sparse withered grass.
The goblin thought for a while and answered seriously: "Knowledge, fuel, and surface ingredients are all right. Although the use of biogas saves us a lot of coal and oil, the combustion efficiency of biogas is still low after all."
"Where did you learn English? And these scientific terms." Su Ming found it very interesting to meet a goblin who was so knowledgeable on the road.
The goblin shrugged and imitated a human face with a spreading hand. This is what he learned from the book: "Some human larvae like to exchange books with us for toys, and occasionally we will leave the city and go to your humans. Set up a stall at the drain outlet of the sewer and greet the children to come over and trade.
Su Ming curled his lips and imagined that kind of scene.
A child came home from school. In a sparsely populated alley, laughter suddenly came from behind a rain-drain fence on the side of the road. He stretched out a small green hand holding a balloon and greeted the child in sewer English to make a deal. ...
It's almost like a horror movie scene.
Well, anyway, Su Ming has long known why there are fewer people in the United States, because they have nothing they dare not play.
Bear children are even more bold representatives, and it is not impossible to trade with underground creatures. If you can exchange a few books for a unique bicycle, this temptation is simply hard to resist.
It's just that the textbooks are changed, and the children may be mixed doubles when they go home.
The death knell talked with the goblin all the way, Casillas kept his expressionless listening state. He was thinking about how the creatures here came from, and why they behaved like no evil at all?
Before he could detect more things, the goblin led the two to a gate, which seemed to be inlaid on a rock wall, antique in appearance, and hundreds of years old.
Well, at a glance, I know that it was taken down from the old castle somewhere and reused, because the style does not match the surroundings at all.
"Behind this gate is the city lord's mansion. The lord's family is a succubus and loves to be clean, so they don't usually come out." The goblin pointed to the door, and then exchanged a few words with the guard guarding the door in unintelligible language.
The guard looks like a troll, with a height of no less than four meters, with wild boar fangs in his mouth.
The guard's English is worse. Its sewer English has a curry flavor. Su Ming can only understand it through a goblin translator. The troll is going in and tells them to wait for a while.
The goblin hadn't left yet, it looked at the death knell eagerly, and rubbed its fingers embarrassedly.
Understand, this is to lead the way, this goblin is the legendary lead party.
Before the advent of taxis in human society, there were also many people who took the lead as their profession. Generally speaking, they were children or the elderly. After all, the threshold for this industry was not high.
Even today in 1980, there is still a tradition of using child labor in the United Kingdom. Children lead the way or clean the chimney to subsidize the family. There are not a few children who die in the chimney every year.
I heard a lot of news from the goblin, and Su Ming was in a good mood, and took out two bags of spicy strips from his pocket to pay for it.
Food is hard currency most of the time. What's more, peppers cannot be grown underground. After explaining to the goblin that the plastic bags on the outside cannot be eaten, it happily walks away with two bags of food that says Devil Spicy.
Su Ming nodded towards Casillas, Xiao Ka began to secretly prepare to defend against magic, after all, the opponent is a succubus, and still needs the ability to defend against the spirit system.
The guards came back soon, pushed the gate open, and told them that they could enter. The city lord was very much looking forward to commercial cooperation with the surface people.
After throwing a bag of spicy strips to the guard as a tip, the two of them walked through the gate and walked into the palace.
It is different from the so-called palace of Gerna, which is actually a cave home. Although it is underground, the decoration and layout are like a noble castle. The floor is covered with beautiful carpets, the ceiling is gorgeous crystal chandeliers, and the walls are still hanging. The author's landscape paintings are both magnificent and not so upstart.
It seems that the succubus family is a bit of a foundation, no wonder it is knowledgeable to develop the city.
There are not only housekeepers but also maids in the palace. The race cannot be recognized for a short time. They look like people but there is always something wrong with them.
Under the guidance of the butler, the two once again walked through the gorgeous corridor, through the gates, and came to a corridor made of black masonry. When they arrived, it was a little hell.
Because there are no electric lights and phones, the decorations on the walls have become monster skulls, and the lighting tools have been replaced by braziers on the walls.
It's just that there is no sulphur smell in the air. Gates separate the palace from the steam city outside, and there is a sweet fragrance of cosmetics everywhere.
The butler, who couldn't see the race, held his head high and pushed open a golden door in front of the two of them, and then stepped aside, bowed and saluted, indicating that he was in place.
Su Ming also rewarded him with a bag of spicy strips~EbookFREE.me~ As a rich man, he is so capricious.
The hall does not look like a living room in common sense, but more like an abyss altar. Under the light of the torch, you can only see a large inverted pentagram in the center of the room. At this time, a demon is standing. In it, one claw held an obsidian dagger, and the other claw carried a goat, chanting.
This is the first time I have seen a male succubus body. It looks like a monster with a dragon head and a cow body, or more like the big pineapple in "Diablo", with deep purple scales and sharp claws. , There are sharp corners on the top of the head that bend forward.
It was full of majesty and looked very dark.
"It's a cross-dimensional summoning circle, he is summoning the same kind." Casillas leaned close to the teacher's ear to explain in a low voice, and at the same time asked with his eyes whether he needed to counter the ceremony.
Su Ming shook his head and said that he didn't need to. He was here to negotiate terms and it was inappropriate to interrupt the host's affairs.
Besides, the other party knew that there was a human coming and asked to continue the ceremony, presumably he wanted to explain something, just watch it.
