Chapter 177: Infiltration Plan! The Goblin High Command's Decision!
"I will arrange for people to secretly send you back underground through other passages, then find a way to enter the Goblin city!"
"Remember your mission, cooperate obediently, and don't try any tricks. Otherwise, none of you will survive, and you will die a very miserable death!"
"Even if you die, I will extract your souls to continue the torture, and your bodies will remain under our control!"
Wang Yi looked at the Goblins controlled by the Undead Necromancer and said coldly.
"Understood, My Lord. We will definitely cooperate obediently and never dare to have any second thoughts!"
Brent said with a trembling tone, "Then what happens after we complete the mission?"
"Rest assured, meritorious subjects will never be mistreated!"
"We might even promote you in the future!"
"Once we take the Goblin city, we will need people to manage it, and you are the best candidates!"
"Now that you have betrayed the Goblin Race, don't think about tipping off the Goblins after returning to the underground city. Not only will you fail to gain the Goblins' trust, but you will also be hunted down by us. I guarantee your end will be extremely miserable!"
Wang San said.
"My Lord, please rest assured. We are grasshoppers on the same rope—no, partners on the same boat. We will definitely not betray you!"
Goblin Lord Hu Zhongjun said hurriedly, "I have long found the Goblin Race and the Goblin King displeasing. They not only occupy so many resources but also constantly exploit the lower-class Goblins. If the Undead Lord wipes out the Goblins, it would be in accordance with the Dao of Heaven and a great joy to the people, hahaha!"
"Enough, start the operation!"
Wang San looked at the Necromancer Wu Ershiyi, who had been silent the whole time. For this mission to infiltrate the underground city, besides Hu Zhongjun and the two defecting Goblins, there were dozens of manipulated Goblins, as well as the Bronze-tier Necromancer and over twenty Black Iron-tier Undead Necromancers and Undead Bone Generals.
The total number of people was not large; it didn't even reach one hundred!
After all, their mission was to infiltrate the Goblin city, and having too many people would be inconvenient for the operation.
Moreover, not only is it easier for things to go wrong with a larger number of Undead, but the same applies to Goblins, and it is easy for traitors to appear and tip off the Goblin Race.
Qin Luo also saw this scene!
He also discovered the Goblin Lord Hu Zhongjun, who shared the same status as him.
But Qin Luo did not stop Wang Yi's actions; in fact, he highly approved of them.
The reason was simple: although the Lord might harbor some ulterior motives, it was undeniable that while Goblin Lord Hu Zhongjun held a noble title bestowed by the Goblin Race, he had absolutely no affection or loyalty toward them.
In the face of death, Hu Zhongjun would never sacrifice his life for righteousness and tip off the Goblin Race.
In the mission to infiltrate the underground city, the role Hu Zhongjun could play was even greater than that of the two defecting Goblin officers.
Whether it was Brent or the other Goblin, they were native Goblins, and who knew if they were truly surrendering or faking it.
If it weren't for the genuine need for a few 'living' Goblins to cooperate, the Undead would never have spared their lives.
After all, relatively speaking, manipulating a bunch of Goblin puppets is much easier than controlling Goblins like Brent.
"Wu Ershiyi and Wang San will each lead a small team to the Underground World. I hope they can play a huge role!"
Qin Luo closed the perception sharing.
Although there was no prior communication with Wang Yi's side, Wang Yi and Wang San had simultaneously devised the plan to infiltrate the Underground World.
However, the purpose of these two teams was to cause destruction inside the underground city or play an unexpected role at a critical moment.
To truly defeat the Goblin Race, one must crush the Goblin army head-on.
The most critical part would be the upcoming war!
The Goblin city!
Inside a luxurious mansion, a group of tall and sturdy Goblins gathered, all wearing valuable, luxurious equipment.
At this time, one or two hours had passed since the fall of the Thirteenth Mine.
The Goblin Race had already received relevant news internally.
At first, they only thought it was a small force that had occupied the Thirteenth Mine, which the defensive forces deployed by the Goblins in the mine could easily repel.
After all, such situations had been encountered frequently in the past.
Since the main force of the Goblins was in the Underground World, their territory on the surface consisted only of a few mines.
Therefore, some short-sighted forces often underestimated the strength of the Goblin Race and provoked wars, wanting to seize the Goblin mines, but the result was always the same: they were all wiped out by the Goblins without exception.
When the news of the attack on the Thirteenth Mine arrived, the Goblin army did not move immediately but reported it layer by layer.
But who would have thought that the situation would suddenly change? The Thirteenth Mine, which possessed powerful Magic Energy Giant Cannons and thousands of well-equipped Goblins, was actually occupied by the enemy so quickly.
Since then, the Thirteenth Mine had completely fallen, and no further news had come.
Even the Goblin scouts sent out to gather information never returned.
"According to the news sent back by Gelimo, they were attacked by a large number of Undead, roughly estimated to be tens of thousands!"
"But Gelimo stated that with the Magic Energy Giant Cannons, these Undead were not enough to pose a threat!"
"But who would have thought... just half an hour later, all contact with the mine was lost. The fate of thousands of Goblins is unknown, and we must prepare for the worst!"
A standing Goblin reported to the high-ranking Goblin officials present.
Gelimo, the highest commander of the Thirteenth Mine's army, a Goblin who had reached the Black Iron Three-Star realm, was finally torn to pieces by the claws of an Undead Bone Dragon.
"Gelimo, what a piece of trash. It seems the decision to transfer him away from the city defense system to guard the mine on the surface was correct!"
A tall Goblin with an imposing aura said angrily, "Even if he isn't dead, I would still slash him to death!"
"Cough, cough, General Maikai, the fall of the Thirteenth Mine is already a fact. The top priority now is whether we should dispatch the main army to retake the mine. The longer we drag this out, the more disadvantageous it will be for us!"
Another high-ranking Goblin official spoke up.
Although the news of the Thirteenth Mine's fall shocked them, they had to accept it.
Since things had reached this point, they had to save the situation in time.
When the news of the mine's fall reached their ears, it was suppressed by the Goblin military department and was not reported further to the Goblin King.
Otherwise, everyone present would be scolded and punished by the King.
But paper cannot wrap up fire forever.
They had to defeat the enemy and retake the mine before the King learned the truth; perhaps they could even save some of the Goblins!
In this way, their responsibility could be reduced.
"This matter is of great importance. Should we report it to His Majesty the King and let him make the decision?"
At this moment, a Goblin sitting in the corner of the conference room stood up and said, looking at the others with disdain. "Mobilizing the army without authorization is a major crime!"
Judging by their posture and contrarian behavior, it was clear they were not on the same side as the Goblins present.
They even wore an expression of schadenfreude.
Hearing this, the many Goblins present changed their expressions, showing unkind looks.
