When Jiang Ran woke up, he saw three goblin heads in front of him.

Looking at these three green-skinned guys with pointy noses and pointy ears, Jiang Ran realized that he was not dead.

The feeling of blackness in front of his eyes just now really reminded him of his experience of sudden death in the Earth world.

"Has the 'Liberation Stone' been neutralized...? How long have I been unconscious?"

Jiang Ran asked the question. Fortunately, his voice remained unchanged. In other words, he did not turn into a baby.

When the Goblin Kings saw Jiang Ran wake up, they first showed a look of relief, but then frowned and became depressed.

"You were only unconscious for five minutes. As for the 'Liberation Stone'..."

The goblin apprentice swordsman pulled Jiang Ran and helped him sit up, while the goblin magic apprentice beside him turned his head to look at the "core of the maze" not far away.

"...It's a shame it was almost eliminated."

8.71 - Helping in need

"Just a little bit more?" Jiang Ran couldn't help but ask.

This answer, which he least wanted to hear, immediately woke him up from his dazed state.

"Yes."

The Magic Goblin pointed forward. Jiang Ran followed his finger and saw a small black dot the size of a sesame seed still floating not far from the core of the maze.

This is all that remains of the "Liberation Stone".

(Isn’t it just this last level I’m missing?)

Jiang Ran calculated the proportions and concluded that even if he didn't retain this final level, he wouldn't be able to completely eliminate the "Stone of Liberation."

"It seems... I should at least sacrifice another level 50 of the second stage power to be enough."

Jiang Ran murmured his opinion, and the three Goblin Kings nodded after listening.

However, in this deserted "Green Ghost Lair", they no longer had a place to find someone who could sacrifice their strength.

·

There was a brief silence in the air, and then the Magic Goblin came up with an idea.

"For the continuation of the race, a small amount of sacrifice is acceptable."

Hearing this, Jiang Ran asked in confusion: "What do you mean? What do you want to sacrifice?"

Then, the Magic Goblin pointed to the foot of the mountain on the north side of the Goblin Castle.

"Young man, are you willing to go and kill some of our fellow goblins, and then come back here to continue sacrificing your strength?"

Such cruel words were spoken very calmly by the Magic God Goblin.

If he hadn't seen his clenched fists trembling slightly, Jiang Ran would have almost misunderstood him as a cold-blooded and heartless guy.

So, will Jiang Ran accept the proposal of the God of Magic Goblin?

The answer is no, because thanks to this ruthless proposal, Jiang Ran broke the shackles of his habitual thinking and realized how "funny" their current heavy atmosphere was.

"That's not necessary, Goblin Kings. Have you forgotten? I can enter and exit the maze freely."

After Jiang Ran said this, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Since the Green Ghost Lair will not collapse for another three days, Jiang Ran "only needs" to raise his level to above level 50 in three days.

"I haven't forgotten... But, you, were able to regain so much strength in such a short time?"

The three Goblin Kings all looked quite surprised. In their opinion, it was extremely difficult to increase the level and complete the advancement in such a short time.

You know, the current human boy is only at the first level, which is far from what he was yesterday.

Moreover, after regaining his power, the human boy once again has to sacrifice the power he obtained with great difficulty to the "Maze Core" for free. How kind-hearted does he have to be to be willing to do such a thankless task?

"To be honest, I'm not completely sure, but it's better than killing those defenseless goblin cubs, right?"

The boy asked the three Goblin Kings with a smile. This smile successfully infected their hearts and made them want to believe this human boy.

They had once wanted to let nature take its course and stop struggling, but now they have rekindled their hope of survival.

Jiang Ran looked at the panel where he had returned to level one, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Although the person did not turn into a baby, the attribute values ​​​​are definitely that of a "baby" who is powerless.

Now, let alone fighting, even most of the equipment on his body cannot meet the attribute requirements to activate the equipment effects. The weight of wearing these equipment alone is enough to make him unable to straighten his back.

"Then there's no time to lose. I'll be leaving now."

Jiang Ran said goodbye to the three Goblin Kings and prepared to leave. At this moment, a familiar neighing sound came from not far away, followed by the "da da da da" sound of horses' hooves galloping towards him.

The person who came was none other than the steel-hoofed warhorse, Little Motorcycle, who was supposed to be waiting outside the ruins of the fortress!

Jiang Ran originally thought that the small motorcycle was here to carry him out, but it turned out that the small motorcycle ran directly past Jiang Ran and stopped precisely in front of the "core of the maze"!

The little motorcycle neighed again, then raised its front hooves, as if to say that it also wanted to sacrifice its strength to the "core of the maze".

Such human behavior left the three Goblin Kings stunned.

Jiang Ran, on the other hand, fell to the ground laughing.

·

"It's still you who has to do it when it matters, Little Motorcycle!"

Jiang Ran stepped forward and patted Xiao Moto's neck, then confirmed with the three Goblin Kings whether Xiao Moto could sacrifice his power.

After the Goblin Kings learned that the little motorcycle was actually a level 78 monster, they were overjoyed and readily agreed!

If this pitch-black warhorse is powerful enough, the human boy will not have to go through the trouble of going out to upgrade his level!

So, under the watchful eyes of the three Goblin Kings and Jiang Ran, the steel-hoofed warhorse, Little Motorcycle, stepped onto a large rock next to the "core of the maze", thus stabilizing its body in a semi-upright posture, and then extended its front hooves into the magic barrier, reaching directly onto the white light sphere at the core of the maze!

As time passed, the level of the little motorcycle dropped rapidly, and the last bit of the volume of the "Liberation Stone" also dissipated proportionally.

Then, when the level of the motorcycle dropped to level 7, even though its front hooves still remained at the core of the maze, its level no longer dropped.

Because the "Liberation Stone" has completely disappeared.

Yes, the "Maze Green Ghost Lair" is saved!

·

·

The "battle" to save the "Green Ghost Lair" ended earlier than anyone expected.

The emergence of the small motorcycle has been a timely help.

Seeing the core of the maze return to normal, the Goblin Kings were filled with mixed emotions.

The war god Goblin, a tough guy, sheds tears;

The Arrow God Goblin covered his face and sighed;

The Magic Goblin laughed loudly;

As unexpected as the disaster had been before, its resolution was just as bizarre.

"Human boy, and pitch-black warhorse, please leave your names."

At this moment, the three former Goblin Kings all knelt down on one knee in front of Jiang Ran and Xiao Moto.

Although there were only three first-level goblin apprentice swordsmen, an apprentice archer, and a magic apprentice bowing their heads here, Jiang Ran seemed to see all the goblins in the "Green Ghost Lair" kneeling before him and Xiao Moto.

At this moment, Jiang Ran saw the golden swords and iron horses crisscrossing thousands of miles, and the roars of the wolf soldiers and tiger generals shook the sky.

Even if it was just to see this scene, he felt that the efforts he and Xiao Moto had contributed were worth it.

What's more, Jiang Ran got more than just these "rewards" this time.

"My name is Fike, and this warhorse gentleman is called Little Motorcycle."

"Master Fike, Master Shomado, the goblin clan of the Green Ghost Lair will always remember your names until the last of our clan dies."

The three Goblin Kings looked at Jiang Ran and the others and thanked them in unison, then bowed their heads again.

Jiang Ran felt embarrassed to let them kneel on one knee like that, so after accepting their thanks, he asked them to get up quickly.

At this point, the "Maze·Green Ghost Lair" incident was almost coming to an end. However, when Jiang Ran said he wanted to leave, the Magic God Goblin asked him to stay a little longer.

"Sir Fike, in return for your and Sir Shomado's assistance, we are willing to offer the Goblin clan's 'treasure' to you."

8.72 - The Goblin Clan's Treasure (Part )

When Jiang Ran heard that the Goblin Kings wanted to give him something, he agreed without hesitation.

The Magic Goblin was stunned for a moment. He thought that humans would pretend to refuse, but the War Goblin laughed so hard that he fell over.

The Arrow God Goblin silently accepted the "Dragon Eye Crystal Necklace - Goblin's Greed" returned by Lord Fike, and then signaled the other two Goblin Kings that they could set off for the treasure house.

The Goblin God of War came to his former weapon, the fine steel spear, and raised it with both hands.

Even though he is now only a first-level goblin swordsman apprentice, the bond between this fine steel spear and his soul will not be broken, so he can use it.

With a sweep of his hands from the God of War Goblin, the broken bricks and tiles piled above the entrance of the secret passage were instantly swept away.

"Lord Fike, please follow us to the treasure house."

The Arrow God Goblin raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and the other two Goblin Kings also came to the entrance of the secret passage one after another.

Jiang Ran nodded, and walked into the secret passage with the three of them, passed through the underground cave space, and finally arrived at the door of the treasure house.

·

In this huge and spacious underground cave, the old stone door of the treasure house, which has been weathered by time, is tightly closed.

There was also a magic barrier blocking the stone door. Jiang Ran recognized that this was what was generated after he triggered the anti-theft mechanism.

The God of Magic Goblin stepped forward and began to remove the magic barrier. During this time, the God of War Goblin found Jiang Ran and started chatting.

"Lord Fike, I have a question for you... How did you defeat the Frost Wolf, Frozahn? If I'm not mistaken, you were around level 50 when you challenged it, right?"

"To be honest, I'm no match for Frozahn, but he underestimated me and let me down, which gave me the opportunity to take advantage of him."

Jiang Ran answered the question truthfully. He still remembered clearly the battle with the level 140 giant frost wolf.

In order to be invincible in this Prison Star world, a cautious heart and versatile combat abilities are indispensable.

"So it was carelessness... This is quite consistent with Frozahn's faults..."

The War God Goblin sighed a few times, then turned to praise Jiang Ran.

"Lord Fike has managed to remain neither arrogant nor impetuous even after receiving the blessing of 'Goddess of Courage, Eret'. This is truly a rare and precious quality. From what I know, most people who gain the ability of 'Fearlessness' ultimately die from a lack of self-awareness."

The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Jiang Ran became interested in what the God of War Goblin said.

As far as Jiang Ran knew, the mortality rate of the fifth-level purple trial was 100% in the Kingdom of West, and in other countries, it was also close to 100%. Logically, there wouldn't be many people who could receive the blessing of the God of Courage, but the God of War Goblin used the word "most" here.

"Can you give me an example of someone who died due to lack of self-awareness?" Jiang Ran asked casually.

"Well, the most famous one is probably Herbert Okami, the eldest son of the current Wolf King."

The words of the War God Goblin let Jiang Ran know two pieces of information. One was that the eldest son of the current Wolf King chief had died, and the other was that the eldest son had passed the purple trial before his death.

And if Jiang Ran remembered correctly, this guy Kenroshi Okami happened to be the second son of the Wolf King.

Just when Jiang Ran wanted to ask more questions, the Magic God Goblin just finished deconstructing the magic barrier of the treasure house, so everyone walked into the treasure house first.

·

Looking at the dazzling array of equipment and props in the treasure house, Jiang Ran wondered in his heart, could it be that the goblin clan's "treasure" is hidden among these?

(But the last time I came in, I didn’t find any treasures...?)

"Mr. Fike, please wait a moment."

The Arrow God Goblin returned the Dragon Eye Crystal Necklace - Goblin's Greed to its original location. The three Goblin Kings then knelt on their knees, shoulder to shoulder, facing the deepest part of the treasury. They then put their hands together and prayed earnestly.
