Chapter 134: Roman

~7 min read 1,292 words

Xie Yaoyao turned into a black rat and followed the goblin through a brick passage, finally arriving in a basement.

As soon as he entered this basement, Xie Yaoyao felt as if he had come to a mechanical workshop in a cyberpunk movie. Various mechanical semi-finished products hung on the walls, and in front of a metal workbench, an old goblin was wearing a monocle, carefully engraving something on a mechanical component.

This old goblin was exactly the goblin mechanical engineer named Lakeximu whom Xie Yaoyao had seen in Aier's room.

After the young goblin entered, he didn't disturb Lakeximu, who was working, but walked straight to the display rack on the other side and began to play with the various firearms on it.

Xie Yaoyao couldn't help but feel surprised by this scene.

Although these firearms didn't look as simple and handsome as those in the real world from the material and shape, their precision was even better.

"Aike, when did you come back?"

The young goblin was tinkering with a thick and long multi-barreled firearm and was startled by the voice.

Turning his head, he found that it was the old goblin who had finished his work and was looking at him.

"Uncle, you scared me! I just came back, and seeing you working, I didn't disturb you."

Lakeximu nodded and turned to start tidying up the workbench in front of him.

"How did things go at the Portal Port? You still need to cooperate well with Bafengte's plan."

The young goblin held up the firearm in his hand and spun it, smiling frivolously.

"Of course there's no problem. You don't have to worry when I go out! If you ask me, Young Master Roman might as well just wipe out that group of Rebel Party members, saving them from making trouble every three days!"

Lakeximu turned his head and glared at his nephew, put the mechanical component with the magic circuit he had just engraved into a box, and turned back to lecture him.

"What do you know? I think you just don't want to be an undercover agent anymore, but want to join the shock troops to be majestic! I tell you, although we are Young Master Roman's people, you should also know what kind of person Aier is! Do you really hope Aier dies?"

Aike put down the gun in his hand, scratched his head, and smiled awkwardly.

"No! Of course I know Aier is a good person, but to be honest, the Rebel Party is now all up to that demon Bafengte, and it's already foul. Besides, Aier's ideals are simply unrealistic, especially since he relies on Bafengte and that woman Akudina. These two guys are full of bad water!"

"If Young Master Roman were willing, he could have wiped out the Rebel Party long ago! But the existence of the Rebel Party can do many things that the Young Master finds inconvenient to do on weekdays, and can also master a lot of important information!"

The young goblin Aike clearly didn't like his uncle's preaching, hung the firearm in his hand on the wall, and turned his attention to the mechanical minotaur on the side.

"Uncle, I know, I know everything! By the way, Uncle, the rumors in the city are Bafengte's masterpiece, right! Really capable, making people panic!"

Aike's topic-shifting technique worked every time; sure enough, after Lakeximu rolled her eyes at him, she still nodded and answered him.

"Hmm, it should be Bafengte's handiwork. He is still very good at these conspiracies and tricks! He wants to cause chaos in the city; I think there must be some plan that needs to tie up most of the shock troops' energy."

"Eh? Even you don't know what the plan is?"

"You should know something about the cunning of demons. I think he might not even have informed Aier."

"Sigh, I really think Aier is like a fool, just letting the hard-built power be slowly infiltrated by that guy Bafengte!"

A flash of light flickered in the monocle, and a mysterious smile appeared on the old goblin's face.

"Hehe, you underestimate Aier! He just doesn't like it, it doesn't mean he can't!"

"Ah? What? Uncle, what are you talking about?"

"Alright, you wouldn't understand even if I said more. You help me deliver this box to Young Master Roman at the drill ground. The Young Master is already in a hurry!"

The old goblin handed the box with the component he had just engraved the magic circuit on to Aike.

Aike took the box and didn't ask any more questions; anyway, he just had to listen to his uncle obediently.

Watching Aike open a small metal door and walk out, Xie Yaoyao didn't follow out this time; anyway, Lilisi had been watching Roman's side all along.

The small mechanical studio returned to quiet again. The old goblin took off his monocle, wiped it, and lay down on the recliner on the side.

"This is our second meeting, Baron!"

The old goblin's words made Xie Yaoyao freeze on the spot.

He actually discovered him; that shouldn't be!

Even if he discovered the rat he turned into, how could he be sure that the rat was him?

Xie Yaoyao had already deliberately changed the 【Gunfire Baron】 entry.

In the corner, the big black rat walked out slowly, step by step turning back into a human form wearing a tuxedo and a white mask.

Xie Yaoyao looked at the old goblin on the recliner, silent!

The old goblin didn't care and continued to speak in a leisurely manner.

"Fantexi Cheng has visitors from all over the multiverse, so the power system is inevitably mixed, and general detection means are difficult to achieve comprehensive detection, but life energy will not lie."

"Pop!"

The old goblin pressed a button on the side, and a magic array on the metal workbench began to operate. Then a 3D image appeared, which was exactly the catfish Xie Yaoyao had turned into before, and the catfish was emitting a dazzling green light.

"Not to mention that this kind of fish has never been seen in Fantexi Cheng, what kind of fish would have such abundant life energy."

Xie Yaoyao finally understood; it turned out that he had been recognized from the beginning.

Pointing to the monocle on his eyes, the old goblin said with a smile.

"This is actually a life energy detector. It's not very accurate for detecting combat power, but it's very accurate for recognizing people!"

Nodding, Xie Yaoyao accepted the other party's words.

"Your words just now were actually meant for me to hear! What do you want to do?"

Hearing Xie Yaoyao's words, the old goblin stood up from the recliner and bowed slightly.

"Young Master Roman asked me to apologize to you. He didn't expect to bring you such big trouble. If you want, we will kill the goat-headed demon to apologize to you!"

"No need, I'm used to doing it myself! Doesn't Roman want me to go to the castle to see him?"

"No, Baron! Young Master Roman hopes that you can decide for yourself whether to go to the castle to see the Viscount. In addition, the Young Master is making a perfect rabbit hole as a gift to apologize to you!"

Xie Yaoyao immediately thought of the metal component the old goblin had been concentrating on engraving just now.

"Why? Why does Roman want to go to this step? This doesn't conform to the style of Fantexi Cheng!"

The old goblin was slightly stunned, then bowed again.

"Baron, Young Master Roman hopes that you can stand on his side to help him, help him kill the City Lord, and seize Fantexi Cheng!" ===== CHAPTER 135 =====
