I, the Goblin Emperor, Rule the World - EP.33

She raised her hand to shield her eyes from the brightness. As she gradually adjusted to the light, she looked ahead.

At that moment, that scene was unforgettable in her life.

Amidst the rolling mist, a towering figure emerged faintly. It stood several meters tall with a length of over ten meters, its head marked with the character “王” (king). This formidable lord of the jungle, carrying its injured cub, roared terrifyingly with its giant sword-like teeth bared towards them.

Standing before the massive figure of the jungle lord, the man who appeared so insignificant, stood in front of the goblin army, wielding a cold iron sword stained with tiger blood. Behind him, he led a dozen or so advanced goblins of various sizes, his expression indifferent.

With broad shoulders, he stood firm against the jungle lord’s roar.

Tarian gradually widened her eyes because the jungle lord dared not approach them anymore.

The forlorn elven prince, his power sealed, still halted the steps of the misty jungle tiger.

In this scene, she also saw three incomplete human corpses among the goblin corpses at the feet of the jungle lord.

Her companion, a silver-ranked adventurer, had fallen in battle.

She didn’t know how much time had passed, but the mist gradually thinned, and the lord of the mist and its cub quietly disappeared.

This battle ended with the victory of the goblins, but the price paid was also heavy.

The goblin cave was damaged, several advanced goblins were killed, dozens of goblins were killed, and dozens of goblins were injured.

Even so, when the lord chose to retreat in front of their goblins, they still cheered and danced with joy.

And that man, he turned back and saw the girl standing outside the cave.

He walked over and came to her side, his face full of sadness.

“I’m sorry, I lied to you. I couldn’t protect your companions, or anyone else.”

Tears streamed down the girl’s cheeks; her companions were all dead.

Her adventure team with her brother had disbanded.

Tarian cried in Chen Le’s arms. Her companions must have fought for her, and she understood that very well.

Today, someone by her side had lost their life to the jungle lord.

At times like this, someone would always tell her not to seek revenge because that was the lord.

Even her mother, born into a family of heroes, accepted this when she learned of her father’s death, no matter how grieving.

But at this moment, there was always a sense of resentment and anger.

It was at this moment that the man holding her spoke, saying something that frightened her and shook her to the core.

“It will come again, and next time, it won’t bring its cub.

But next time, I will become stronger and avenge your fallen companions.”

Tarian was stunned for a moment, then gradually hugged the man in front of her tightly.

“Thank you, I believe in you.”

Until Tarian stopped crying, Chen Le’s gaze fell on the injured goblins around them and the goblin corpses on the ground.

“I’m sorry, Tarian, I hid it from you.

I may not be able to give you pure love, or just embrace you alone. In response to their expectations of me, to repay their support for me, and also for myself.

I’m sorry, I’m such a selfish person.”

Tarian gritted her teeth slightly, then raised her head and lightly kissed Chen Le’s lips.

“I’m willing to have children with you and help you remove the curse. Even if you need someone else’s help to lift the curse, I won’t blame you.”

“You... know?”

“Yeah, your follower told me.”

Meanwhile, three white goblin ghosts were bitten to death, a goblin (snake) commander, and a goblin (elemental) shaman were eaten.

The wolf pack responsible for training was also attacked, with one young wolf and eight adult wolves dead.

Dozens of goblins and forest wolves suffered injuries of varying degrees.

The damage was to the soil layer above the goblin lair, forcing certain areas of the upper layer of the goblin lair to possibly collapse.

Upon hearing the casualty figures, Chen Le fell silent.

Even with adequate preparation, so many goblins and forest wolves were killed at a glance, even intruding into the goblin lair before he had to show himself.

Foggy Tiger, a beast surrounded by natural mist, possessed the ability to conceal its presence and hide its figure, surpassing the goblins’ imagination.

If it hadn’t been for its reckless behavior after entering the goblin territory, completely disregarding the goblins and being negligent, it wouldn’t have been successfully ambushed by the Goblin Emperor, slashing its cub with a sword and leaving it with only a breath left.

Chen Le’s gaze hardened.

The casualties this time were not small, and the labor force in the Goblin Main Lair plummeted rapidly. Subsequent construction would undoubtedly encounter bottlenecks.

With the blessing of the first overseas jurisdiction, Wolf Ridge’s resources, it was necessary for the Goblin Main Lair to increase its manpower.

The future harvest of crops could support more goblins, so it was necessary to let the grown elite green-skinned goblins mate with the female goblins in the tribe to increase their numbers.

Currently, the number of Goblin Emperor’s consorts who could give birth to advanced goblins was too few to support the number of advanced individuals needed for a powerful race.

The Goblin Emperor’s heirs nurturing base:

Lila (end of postpartum rest) (Third birth completed)

Current Hope Value for Lila: 38

Naga (end of postpartum rest) (First birth completed)

Current Hope Value for Naga: 30

3 days left until Cas O’Bleu gives birth (Third birth)

Current Hope Value for Cas O’Bleu: 48

7 days left until Tarian gives birth (First birth)

Current Hope Value for Tarian: 50

Lila’s hope value remains steadily increasing, and Cas O’Bleu continues to cooperate as usual.

Naga, the priestess, truly has a resilient heart. Just taking a break to flirt brings her hope value back to the 30 mark.

Tarian, the newest addition, is the most outrageous. Her internal hope value reaches an astonishing 50, the highest Chen Le has ever seen.

It seems that this handsome Goblin Emperor perfectly resonates with the XP of this girl who carries the bloodline of the Hero Clan.

But it’s not enough, far from it.

Chen Le’s gaze turned to the direction Tarian had left.

For their goblin tribe to grow and prosper, they need more women to bear more children.

In this attack by the lord, Chen Le deeply realized the weakness of their goblin tribe.

As the emperor, he was already somewhat inadequate against just one lord in the Strange Mist Forest. What if another one came?

What if next time, the father of that cub and the mother tiger came together?

It would be a devastating storm.

The pace of reproduction must be accelerated.

Chen Le returned to the Goblin Main Lair and approached Lila’s room.

At this moment, Lila and the heavily pregnant Cas O’Bleu were playing cards, naturally using the deck Chen Le had made for them.

“Le, you’re here. Want to join us?”

Lila was holding her hand of cards with joy, while Cas O’Bleu across from her had a troubled expression, pulling at her hair and pondering her hand for a long time.
