Chapter 7: collapse

　　 "Raja, 20 meters in front, on the wall on the left, about one and a half meters high, the crossbow bolt mechanism."
　　 "My master, your eyes are sharper than the legendary condor!"
　　In the dark castle dungeon, the goblin Raja commanded his tribe to carefully move forward to dismantle the mechanism, and the awe of the new owner deepened in his heart.
　　 Recently, Raja really feels that he is getting ahead.
　　Let’s take a look, what have been the days before in the orc tribe: terrible food, hard work, orcs’ disdainful eyes, and the cannon fodder that inevitably rushes to the forefront when fighting...
　　 Although many people have been living like that for a long time, they gradually don’t feel that there is anything wrong, but Raja is different! He used to be an apprentice of a great alchemist. He has seen the world, and of course he knew that the goblin who lived this life was the worst kind.
　　 Is the life of those goblin merchants and goblin nobles any better?
not at all!
　　 Raja knew that no matter how much wealth and power a goblin had, the prejudice about race would continue to be deeply ingrained. He is not sure about the situation in the Eastern Continent, but in the Western Continent, even the Haval Empire, which values ​​commerce the most, has specifically enacted restrictive laws on goblin merchants.
Sometimes Raja dreams of standing on a majestic air carrier, wearing a delicate and straight military uniform, leading a huge air fleet to chase dragons, blast through city gates, and crush the enemy—this For a goblin, it is simply the most incredible pipe dream.
　　 However, Raja hid this whimsical dream in his heart. He was waiting for the opportunity because he believed in goblins...should not be the weakest intelligent race.
　　 And now, Raja is sure he sees the light of hope.
　　 This is naturally not because the quality of the food has improved, nor is it because the work is not so hard, and it is not because the people do not need to be cannon fodder anymore.
　　 To be honest, this strange black dragon is not a benevolent lord, and his ability to govern is also a bit suspicious. But there is one thing that makes Raja feel excited: he is willing to give the goblin a fair chance and promises to maintain this situation.
　　 Raja is not a pure dreamer, he has already walked one-third of his life. With the life of a goblin, it is impossible for him to see that dream come true. However, the lifespan of the giant dragon is much longer. Raja has a hunch that this dragon will not die so easily, and as long as he does not die, his race will continue to have a fair chance.
　　 And this dream will be passed on from generation to generation until it comes true!
　　 Ai Luo didn't care what Raja was thinking. As Raja thought, he really couldn't use the word benevolence to describe it—the reason why he cared about the lives of goblins was purely out of interest.
The contract in Ailuo’s soul told him that now several goblins have become their own shallow believers. As long as the seeds of faith are planted in a group, they will gradually sprout, spread, and bring him more Belief point.
　　Of course, goblins are very useful even in terms of short-term benefits. The Icote Valley is very large, and the entire valley cannot be covered by the ability of three young dragons alone. With the help of a group of goblins, the control of the valley can be easier.
　　 Besides, the old castle where I live now is in disrepair. It can be said that everything except the main hall is in ruins. Elok has no mood and effort to repair the castle. It would be better to have a goblin to do it.
　　 And what I need to pay is only the food redeemed by a few belief points and a piece of land that I actually can’t control at all!
　　 "Five meters ahead, there are three consecutive fire traps on the ground."
　　 looked up carelessly, Ai Luo spoke again to inform the goblin construction team.
　　 "I said Ai Luo, I can't see that you still have this kind of ability..."
　　 Seeing the goblins once again took out the trap from the place pointed out by Ai Luo, Weiss felt that his worldview was almost subverted. What kind of joke did he recognize the trap without resorting to any magic or props? And still recognize them all?
　　 No matter how you look at it, this is not an ability that a young dragon can master.
"What's so great? I can just rush over these traps!" Hillcart, who stood beside him, was immediately unhappy. The young dragon's own recovery ability was strong, coupled with adequate food and rest, his injury It's already pretty good.
　　 In his opinion, Ai Luo is powerful, but as long as his strength is strong enough, no matter what trap he is, he can break it!
"is it?"
　　 Ailuo's wings moved slightly and made a human-like shrug: "Raja, there is a magic sensor bomb in the past 30 meters, detonated from a long distance."
　　 "Yes, my master! Your wisdom makes us feel ashamed!"
　　 While uttering compliments skillfully, Raja motioned to the workers to throw the prepared pebbles.
　　 The next moment, the proud Hillcart was completely speechless. Of course not only him, but also Wes, Raja and the goblin workers were all dumbfounded.
　　 Hearing the loud sound of "boom", a dazzling white light burst out along with the raging flames, and the strong shock wave brought up a small storm, blowing the thin goblins back several steps. Then the whole tunnel shook, and big stones kept falling from the ceiling—it was about to collapse!
"go!"
Ailuo decisively picked up Raja and ran away, and the little black dragons and the goblin workers also chased up with a scream of exclamation-when this kind of life is at stake, even Hilcart can't take care of anything. The pride and demeanor of the dragon clan is gone, and the life is gone.
　　 "huhu..."
"Scared me……"
　　 "Many, thank you master......"
　　 "I said, brother, do you still think you can rush over?"
After a while, the dragon and the goblins stood at the three-way road at the entrance of the dungeon. Wes looked at the road on the left that had been completely blocked, and then looked at Qiang Zi's composure. In fact, the fear and fear in his eyes were long gone. The overflowing Hill Carter couldn't help but tease.
　　 "……"
　　 Hill Carter didn't even say a word in the scene this time. After all, it would be futile to cover up his desperate appearance just now.
　　 You can't think of him as a coward or a guy who only talks about. As the offspring of the militant red dragon and the tyrannical black dragon, Hillcart will not avoid any battle. In fact, he still seeks to fight.
　　 But deep in his chest, hidden is a strong sense of self-protection that he didn't even notice. Not only him, but even those ancient dragons, they hoped from the bottom of their hearts to live a few more centuries-in other words: it is better to die than to live.
　　 "The master is really amazing, you can even see the hidden magic bomb-I wonder if the great master can tolerate the humblest curiosity of a goblin, and tell Raja how do you see it?"
　　 Raja coughed, he was the most calm one in the disaster just now, because Ailuo grabbed him the first time and fled.
　　Of course, I can't accuse Ai Luo of saving Raja alone. On the one hand, Raja is the leader of the goblins, and he also helps Ai Luo instill loyalty to other goblins, which can be said to be the most valuable.
　　 On the other hand, the brothers Weiss and Hillcart are black dragons. If they can't even dodge a collapse, it doesn't meet Ai Luo's expectations of them. And other goblins?
　　 I'm sorry, Ai Luo can only take one goblin away, but he has no confidence to run at a safe speed with two hind legs. Anyway, the reproduction ability of goblins has long been known to Ailuo. Even if these goblin workers are dead, according to the current development speed of the goblin race on the right track, at most six months, a new batch of labor can be formed again.
　　 As for putting the goblin on his back? Wake up, for any dragon, their back is a very special place.
　　 "It's hard to explain, I just know."
　　 Ai Luo answered Raja's question indifferently, and the latter was another compliment that didn't know whether he was true or not. Ailuo can probably guess that Raja still wants to give Hilkat a step down when he asks this kind of question-this is a sign that he is starting to please the entire Tokamak faction rather than just himself.
　　 Ai Luo is very satisfied with this change. For him, as long as he stays at the apex of the Tokamak faction, he will not suffer from it. As for Hill Carter, he will naturally get some satisfaction because of this, which will enhance his sense of belonging to this faction.
　　 As for how I knew...
　　 This goes back to when Lin Ke's sneak attack was discovered. Ai Luo hasn't told anyone that his eyes are inherently capable of perspective. As long as he wants to, all the disguise will be invisible in front of him!
　　 Maybe some powerful thieves can fool him through magic and tricks that Ai Luo doesn't know. However, what Lin Ke uses is only a relatively ordinary optical invisibility technique. Naturally, there is no disguise in Ai Luo's eyes.
The same is true for the dungeon mechanism this time. Only the last magic bomb barely deceived Aylor’s eyes. If Aylor’s sensitivity to magical energy were not too high, perhaps the Tokamak faction would be destroyed this time. ...
　　 Even so, Ai Luo still felt his own shortcomings: he saw the existence of the magic bomb, but did not expect that the bomb would be so powerful, and it also caused the collapse of the entire tunnel.
　　 Maybe the next step...I have to train my perception of magic intensity.
　　 "Okay, now take another road." Ai Luo shook his tail and motioned everyone to enter the passage on the right, "About 40 meters ahead, at the root of the wall on the left, venom trap."
　　 "Yes, yes! Wise master!"
　　 Raja immediately nodded and bowed his head and directed the goblins to continue their work. Soon there were only two small black dragons left in place.
　　 "I think," Weiss was silent for a moment, watching his younger brother who gradually recovered his calm, "Maybe we should have our own attendants."
　　 "At least better than goblins." Hilkat nodded dumbly.
　　 I didn't think it before, but along the way, the brothers both witnessed how the goblins flatter Ai Luo. Dragon's conceit is as famous as their greed. Even if they know that they hear beautiful words, they are flattering designed to protect the speaker from their anger. They still like to hear such flattery.
　　 Regardless of the motivation, from this moment on...
　　 The growth of the Tokamak faction has inevitably arrived.
