Chapter 335: Goblin Ruins
"Pew pew pew…" Saaya spat out dirt, "This is definitely a first-tier situation, right? Magical Circle of Deicide, you really are something!"
Aileen and Kirmin were lying on the ground, clearly unconscious.
There is a cost to go through this door; in the players’ words, the one who opens the door will be left weak, regardless of their level, and the one who closes the door will also be left weak, regardless of their level…
Just then, at a critical moment, Karoso pushed Kirmin to open the door; after he and Saaya entered, he shouted for Aileen to close the door.
At that moment, Aileen wanted to call Celica and the others, but the light of dawn had already fallen, and several eighth-tier warriors had used their cards to defend, so they didn’t have time to come in.
Karoso did not expect that Ricardo would be so decisive and directly use the Magical Circle of Deicide.
In Karoso’s view, using two top eighth-tier and two ordinary eighth-tier to hunt down Celica was already the highest level of treatment.
Things like the Magical Circle of Deicide require quite a lot of resources.
[Oh no, this has gotten a bit out of hand.]
[In the original story, it was 『』 and Sophia who, after learning about the Death Knight, had Celica hold off Ricardo while Sophia, 『』, and Aileen investigated in secret.]
[There is another hidden mission. After completing it, Celica will follow, but Ricardo did not find out.]
[Yes, once we reach this laboratory and uncover the truth, it will be the end for Ricardo. There won’t be any situation where Ricardo leads a large army to silence us.]
[This change is too big.]
[How did Ricardo get here? Normally, Celica is investigating the dark elf. This shouldn’t seriously concern Ricardo, a cardinal; he shouldn’t have come here.]
[It’s the Pande Empire. There are shadows of the empire behind this matter.]
[Damn, how do we fight? With the quality of this dungeon, Master Karoso and Aileen can’t handle it.]
[I’m just waiting for Aileen to break through to the seventh tier after her nap.]
[In this situation, a seventh-tier Aileen is not enough.]
"I didn’t think they would use the Magical Circle of Deicide," Karoso said in a low voice.
"You don’t know? Is this something you can’t explain? Damn your ancestors…" Saaya cursed, but then he realized that cursing Karoso’s ancestors was the same as cursing his own.
"You didn’t mention in the strategy you wrote for me that there was such a powerful weapon there! If I had known, I would have dealt with it clearly… Damn it, what about the forces behind you? Hurry and get them to help!" Saaya looked very anxious. "The Church of Dawn Goddess is serious; a cardinal has too much power at his disposal. It’s not a problem to destroy one country, or even two provinces!"
"Calm down!" Karoso interrupted Saaya. If he told Saaya about this thing, it would be strange if he couldn’t figure it out since they are both clever men.
With such a level of destructive power, it’s too easy to think of it; only the Church of Dawn Goddess possesses a Magical Circle of Deicide of that level in this world.
Moreover, Karoso really didn’t think of this. Players have never experienced a Magical Circle of Deicide.
Karoso is very smart, but he is not all-powerful.
"Archbishop Celica has a plan. Those people didn’t rush in right away to kill us; they must have been held back. The fighting power that the Church of Dawn Goddess can use is limited at this time. Those people will not let the forces of the Dawn Church leave the scene. This means we don’t have to face many enemies. At most, it will be some church members and Laria’s lower ranks, plus the Death Knight here. There is an exit here; if we find it, we will be fine. If Celica isn’t trapped here, she will find a way to deal with Ricardo."
"Ugh, damn it, I should never have participated in this auction…" Saaya thought if he hadn’t joined the auction, he wouldn’t have encountered such trouble, let alone be used by Karoso.
"Hmm…" At that moment, Aileen got up from the ground.
"Karoso!"
She saw that Karoso was still alive and couldn’t help but sigh with relief.
Even the remaining power of the Magical Circle of Deicide could easily eliminate everyone present.
"What’s happening now? What about Bishop Celica, the two masters, and those two Blade of Dawn?" Aileen quickly asked.
"I don’t know. I was afraid of more trouble, so I pulled both of you in here," Karoso said. "Don’t worry, Bishop Celica is one of the top five among the eighth-tier. There are hardly any opponents who can match her, except for those ancient elves."
Aileen was not the type to be passive; she decisively walked to the door and pushed it open. She saw that on the other side there were no signs of Celica and the others, but rather another room similar to this one.
"Master Celica!"
Aileen’s face changed; she thought Celica and the others had vanished!
"Huh?" Karoso gently reminded her, "They’re not in the same place anymore; there must be some light coming from above."
Aileen looked up and noticed that the ceiling was perfectly sealed. She then sighed in relief, "What happened? Did we enter a teleportation portal? When I closed the door, my magic was instantly drained, and it felt like someone hit me on the head with a stick…"
"I don’t know either. It’s my first time here, and I have no idea about this place," Karoso shook his head as if he truly knew nothing.
"Um… Sir…" Kirmin covered her head and wobbled as she stood up, "My head hurts so much…"
She looked around in confusion and suddenly gasped in shock, "Is this… the Goblin ruins?"
"Goblin ruins?"
The others all looked at Kirmin at the same time.
From the players’ perspective, they didn’t know what this place was for; they only knew it was where the Death Knights were kept.
"Yes, this is the Goblin ruins!" Kirmin swallowed hard, "It’s not the kind of goblin that just makes silly noises without a mind, nor is it the few goblins around that only act as merchants. This is the real Goblin ruins, home to the highly intelligent goblins that went extinct in the New Age."
"Their machines were not much worse than our current technology."
"Not only that, but they are also at the forefront of biotechnology. Later, it seems they broke some taboo, and the research goblins were killed by the Church of the Goddess of the Night."
"You understand this too?" Karoso asked, surprised.
"Yes, those who study mechanics definitely learn about goblin civilization’s history." Kirmin nodded. "And I’m very interested in goblin culture, so I have been researching it deeply."
In the original story, 『』 and Sophia came. One was a Card Maker, and the other was a little girl just out of her studies.
Celica? Even though she is a cardinal, her cultural score is barely passing.
"If this is Goblin ruins…" Kirmin’s eyes lit up. "There must be many valuable things inside!"
Thinking about valuable things, Kirmin forgot all about the danger.
