Chapter 54
For this spy lady, this mission was indeed quite fortunate.
Unlike previous tasks involving heinous crimes like murder and smuggling, she didn’t need to fabricate terrifying illusions to gain the trust of the upper echelons of the Traffickers organization.
This time, it was simply about killing some goblins.
Goblins, those weak and disgusting creatures, could be dispatched with a simple stroke of the blade, without any psychological burden or difficulty.
Moreover, through this mission, she could gather information related to the goblin king. Once the goblins here were eliminated, she could intervene in the matter and learn the whereabouts of the goblin king, informing the organization and benefiting from it.
Miss Dunei’s luck must have been at its peak this time.
Completing this mission would earn her a position as a cadre within the Traffickers organization, facilitating her spy work even further.
With the completion of the mission entrusted by the Holy Maiden on the horizon, success was within reach.
Go for it, Miss Dunei.
“Let’s move out.”
The middle-aged man tucked his eye mask into his pocket and gazed toward the direction of the goblin territory in the Strange Misty Forest.
“Let’s give these little monsters a taste of the shock from our Traffickers organization.”
...
In the goblin lair in the Strange Misty Forest:
Chen Le sat on the throne, with only Hope standing beside him since Adas couldn’t leave her bed today.
The rest of the hall was filled with goblins similar to mid-level officials in the goblin lair.
The red devil goblins and purple demons were also present.
“This intrusion indicates a severe lapse in our perimeter surveillance and interception efforts. We must strengthen our monitoring of invaders. Even if we can’t stop them, we must be aware of their presence,” the Goblin Emperor stated, garnering nods from the assembled goblins.
Hope, the lone catgirl, stood nervously nearby in the dimly lit goblin lair. While surrounded by goblins might instill fear in most, her reverence for Chen Le remained undiminished even after learning his true identity.
Chen Le’s gaze shifted towards her, contemplating. Although they had been intimate before, she hadn’t conceived yet. Since Adas couldn’t become pregnant at the moment, perhaps Hope could be useful elsewhere.
Her exceptional stealth abilities made her a perfect candidate for patrolling the forest. “Hope, you’ll lead the goblin scouts. I’ll assign several goblin squads to you. Your task is to monitor the forest activities and prevent any infiltration,” Chen Le instructed, his plan unfolding smoothly.
Hope nodded obediently, accepting her assignment without protest.
“Yika, Jia Yi, and Kuanyong, your mission is to buy us time. Enhance our combat readiness with all available means,” Chen Le continued, addressing the red devil goblins and the green-skinned goblin warrior.
Their responses were prompt and affirmative.
Meanwhile, exploration work in the mines had commenced, extending beyond the territory into the neighboring Wolf Ridge. The goblin domain was expanding, with plans to integrate the mid-region of Wolf Ridge into their jurisdiction. This area would serve as a safe haven for the arriving Black Cat Clan.
Preparing accommodations for them would take time, but the goblins were ready for the task. They would send scouts to survey the area between the outer and mid-regions of Wolf Ridge, ensuring the safety of their new allies.
“Erlie, inform Yili to scout the terrain and wolf pack layout in the mid-region of Wolf Ridge. We’re preparing a new home for our new allies,” Chen Le commanded, outlining their next steps.
With tasks assigned and plans in motion, the goblins prepared to welcome their new allies into their fold.
“White Ghost Goblins, it’s up to you to change the terrain between the goblin lair and Wolf Ridge according to the planned layout and construct roads for easier transportation!”
In other words, she had entered a stage where most creatures would crave reproduction after being stimulated.
And perhaps due to the powerful golden magical rune, all she could think of was the Goblin Emperor.
“No, I can’t... it’ll ruin everything...”
Her eyes glazed over with infatuation, but eventually, her steadfast resolve crumbled, and she relaxed her limbs.
Moments later...
Shu: Hmm?
Shu: Oh, thank you, young lady.
Shu: It hasn’t rained much lately. I really needed someone to help me out.
A while later...
Shu: Alright, young lady, thank you. Come help me again sometime.
Shu: Huh? Wait, why are you staring at my hand?
Shu: Hey, stop that! Put the knife down, don’t cut—!
Shu: Ahhh!!!
Shu: My hand! You cut off my hand!!!
That day, the girl discovered a secret known only to mature individuals.
Shu: Oh no, you little troublemaker! Come back and fix my hand!
Blushing, Hidori left the scene. She needed to sleep; her body still felt uncomfortable and required rest.
Unaware that pain could sometimes aid sleep, she struggled with restlessness throughout the night.
Too bad the patrol girl’s inner turmoil had reduced her alertness, preventing her from noticing the hidden figures beyond the perimeter.
Hidori lay in her bed, trying to escape into sleep. However, as soon as she lay down, her mind was instantly occupied by a certain person’s figure.
The beautiful golden magical rune on her lower abdomen emitted a clearer glow.
Unaware that she had already fallen into an abyss the moment she lay down, her mind was unable to find peace.
Tonight, Chen Le did not stay in anyone else’s room but his own.
His room was filled with various items, and at this moment, he held a feather pen dipped in homemade ink, recording various methods of crafting intelligent creations recalled from his memory onto the bark.
Although memories from his previous life might be somewhat blurry, the wisdom passed down from the Goblin ancestors would help him fill in the gaps, allowing this Goblin Emperor to better impart the wisdom of both predecessors and other worlds to his subjects.
Suddenly, the door of the room creaked open a crack.
Chen Le paused for a moment, surprised that his subconscious didn’t detect the person’s approach before they arrived. That shouldn’t have been possible.
However, he quickly understood. After deliberately focusing his senses, he already knew who was outside.
After all, this young girl still bore his mark.
Who else could sneak up on him like this?
