Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

The sun rises and falls on the earth, and all the darkness will end.

But at the same time, the lake water will evaporate.

Most of the people around Green Swamp Town were moved more than ten kilometers away by Gillianis before the final blow, but Green Swamp Town itself turned into a huge round pit. No trace of the former Green Swamp Town or the newly built Green Swamp Town can be found here.

Also missing is the huge body of the dragon lich.

Ron and his companions were thrown down and fell into the pit, but when he struggled to get up, he saw that not all of his companions were safe and sound.

A young dragon with a body length of less than ten meters coiled and dragged one person after another to Ron, looking at the young wizard with sad eyes. Finally, he threw a small man on his back and dragged a heavy full body armor towards him with a broken dragon wing.

"Barbecue... Knight?" Driver's voice was unreal, as if it came from the Feywild. Some of his compatriots once believed in the unfounded legend, and the goblins were once residents there.

Now it might be time to go back.

"You're on my back," Exure didn't look back, he had just seen the bleeding eyes, "I'll take you."

The ranger opened his mouth again, and his body, which was just over one meter long, softened.

It was already the limit of the moon elves to transfer most of the people away. Even in the state she was in just now, she had no spare energy to rescue the people trapped in the lich. Unless she was willing to give up this only chance, let the efforts of the hag and others go to waste.

Ron lowered his eyelids and looked at the messy golden hair on the ground.

"Just like the first time we met." He whispered.

"Just like that time," accompanied by the roar of metal, Ivy struggled to overcome the weight on her body and stood up again. However, in just the next second, the armor that had completely exhausted the enchantment and its own toughness fell to the ground and turned into a pool of scrap metal, "... I was just about to say that I had an extra set of armor."

"I'm so sorry, it seems that my enchanting skills need to be improved," Ron couldn't help but smiled and shook his head, "I'm sorry, if I had..."

"If you had left me in the goblin's nest, let Driver cut me into pieces," the half-elf's body was horrible, but only the pair of gem-like eyes were still shining, "The only pity for me is that I have to wear heavy armor and hold a shield all the time, and I can't be as relaxed as Sylvia, tsk."

Ivy tilted her head. More than half of her vision at this moment was virtual, and only a little bit could see the outside world. After Ron, the dhampir appeared there.

Undead creatures will also die, let alone hybrids.

The half-elf sighed, leaned over to pick up the tower shield dragged by Axuri, and weighed it in his hand again: "I can still feel the presence of the lich, where is it? I can't see it."

The huge body brings strength and also makes it easier to become a target. With the demise of its "real body", Ivy's current vision is difficult to capture the other party.

But fortunately, under the protection of Gillianis's arm armor, Ron's senses are still good.

"It..." Ron was about to say something, and at the same time he led the half-elf to retreat quickly, "It's right in front of you."

Two dark smokes suddenly rose from the eye sockets of Exuri, and the voice turned into the hateful tone of the dragon lich: "Really perceptive, or have you noticed it a long time ago?"

"A young dragon that is given special care is even forced to convert to Bahamut," Ron threw away the alchemical strap, and only broken scrolls and potion bottles rolled out of it, "You are not as hidden as you think."

"But everything is still in my plan," the lich sneered, "and you can't change anything."

"My dear son, you call him Exuri? It has been influenced by me before it was born. When I use its body, I can exert the same power as myself!" The dragon lich laughed in the voice of Exuri, and a silver dragon's head drilled through the flesh on the side of its neck, staring at the couple who were like candles in the wind with hatred. On the other side, there was a green dragon's head, with fear spreading in its eyes, but when it opened its mouth, it couldn't spit out a single word.

Then, there was a copper dragon's head, looking at Ron with sorrow and sadness.

"Are you going to cosplay the Dragon Queen?" Ron couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. The metal dragon and the colorful dragon heads, which were obviously not in the same style, were mixed together, which actually had a funny feeling. "I heard that you have been a slave under His hands for a long time..."

"Shut up, mortal!" The lich seemed to be very resistant to this memory, and the four dragon heads shouted at the same time, "Since you know, then you should understand that one of the incarnations of the Dragon Queen is the five-headed dragon-and I am still missing one."

"I can be regarded as a descendant of the dragon," At this point, Ron relaxed, after all, both sides seemed to have revealed their cards. "You don't want my head, do you?"

This was just a joke, but what Ron didn't expect was that the other party actually laughed sinisterly: "You are very smart, but... you only got part of the answer right!"

"My sidekick, come back!" "Bang——"

Both Ron and Ivy's brains went blank in an instant, and Ron's face was covered with his own flesh and blood in an instant - one of his arms actually exploded at this time!

It was not Gillianis's arm armor, but the one she had modified, but only the modified part was left! Moon elves' skills would never make such mistakes, unless there was something foreign before--

That gem!

The golden gem surged with an overbearing aura, blasting Ron's arm and half of his body into countless pieces. A familiar golden dragon shadow flashed in it and flew towards the lich.

But that was not an attack, but a return! I don't know when it was corrupted by the dragon lich! Even the God's Side mentioned by the cultists was this adult golden dragon who once believed in Bahamut!

"You are the best I have ever seen, but unfortunately, you are still one step short!" The breath of four elements, fire, frost, venom and strong acid, poured out from the five heads in an instant, leaving no room for Ron and Ivy to react. The half-elf only had time to raise the tower shield in front of her, protecting the mage behind her in the shadow as usual, while Ron could only release an arcane spell that did not require materials to cast, barely increasing her physical fitness.

But all this seemed to be in vain. The tower shield and the full body armor are made of the same material. When the latter turns into scrap iron, how good can the former be even if it can be used?

Ivy already felt the acid corroding the metal and splashing on her face.

Can it be protected?

The half-elf was stunned for a moment, she knew that this was not her question. But the voice did not stop because of this.

In a trance, she seemed to be in a misty gray fog, a legendary creature that had only been described by her poet father stood in front of her, looking down at her with empty eyes.

That was the god of death—Daniel made it up, and used it to blend into adventure stories and tell her when she was still a child.

Can you protect it? The voice asked again. Ivy was almost sure that it was the existence opposite who was asking the question.

But why did it ask that? The half-elf rolled her eyelids, took a deep breath, and took a step forward. This was the safest posture when facing this type of attack.

That was not a question at all—of course she knew the answer!

Even for a dragon lich, the breath has an end. When the chaotic elemental storm subsided around Ron, he subconsciously reached forward, but only a tower shield fell.

"This is really..." The surprised voice of the lich came into his ears, but it seemed like a lifetime ago. Ron widened his eyes and looked forward, but he could not see the golden hair and green eyes at all.

There was only a hideous five-headed lich, looking at him in confusion without any damage.

"What kind of power is this?"

"Loyalty, responsibility, friendship, love...whatever you want to say," a lazy voice suddenly sounded at the bottom of the pit. The survivor looked over there. A demon with small horns, leather wings and a forked tail like a succubus stood there with a magic sword. When he looked at Ron, there was a smile on his lips, "It looks like it's time, right?"

"Gracie!" Ron roared in his throat. If he could still move in his current state, he would definitely tear up the perfect But with a contemptuous face, "You are the one who did all this?!"

"Don't say it so harshly, Ron," the Grand Duke of Purgatory raised his eyebrows, "How else, let it have all five heads, and then you don't even have room to fight back? You should be grateful to me."

"Come on, bow to me, salute, and offer your soul, I will be happy to help you and kill it," Gracia looked at the lich and said, "You are so ugly, Tiamat is already angry to death, I spent a lot of time It took a lot of effort to convince her not to come to you. "

"Of course this is for my own good. Your head... can be exchanged for more than five rewards."

"Princess, should our relationship not be so tense?" When the devil's archduke appeared, the situation here changed drastically in an instant. At this moment, the dragon lich could not complete its ritual, so it was not sure of victory. It could only think about how to appease this uninvited devil. "I have to deal with some things here now. How about we have a drink later?"

"No matter," Gracia yawned boredly, "I sold you once, but you dared to lie to me. There is nothing good to talk about between us. Instead, you--"

Gracie walked in front of Ron and lifted his chin with her slender fingers: "Mortal, it only takes a word from you, and it will be buried with your friends. It's a good deal, isn't it?"

"You are still--" "I refuse."

Ron's remaining hand suddenly used a hard object to push away the devil's fingers. Gracia looked at the huge coin in his hand, and her expression immediately became wonderful.

"I see... Tsk tsk tsk, lich, I can't help you this time."

"Then get out of the way!" The silver dragon's head roared, "It's just a blessed coin, why does he-"

"Bang", just like Ron's arm, a ball of blood burst without warning, but this time it was the head that broke.

"Rage, hopeless." In Ron's body, an endless stream of gray mist escaped from his body and poured into the coin in his hand. A huge dragon phantom slowly stretched out its beautiful body in the mist. It was obviously made of gray mist, but it showed the texture of platinum.

"Sadness, bubbles are illusory." The red copper dragon's head showed a hint of gratitude, and disappeared after making a soft sound of bursting bubbles. Ron approached the lich step by step, but it had to retreat after it had the absolute upper hand. It could feel the source of the other party's power, but that existence should have to solve other problems now!

Therefore, standing here now, it is this human being who seems to be judging it!

"No! How can you control such power! This is unfair! You are just a mortal, why? Why?!"

"Fear comes from death." The green dragon's head turned into white bones and then dissipated into smoke. Ron's eyes filled with gray mist looked at the golden dragon's head and paused: "You're not awake yet!"

"And Exuri! Drive it out!"

The Lich was really frightened. It was shocked to find that if Ron's three previous shouts only weakened its power, the last two shouts had actually shaken its control over the body! Two consciousnesses woke up in this body one after another. One has a mature mind and is full of anger waiting to be vented, while the other, although it has just woken up, has unquestionable sovereignty over this body!

"Exuri! Are you crazy?" In the blink of an eye, the Lich made a choice and sent a strong inspiration to the young dragon in his consciousness, "It's me! I'm your biological mother! You can't do this to me! You are my heir..."

"I don't want to be your puppet!" The young dragon's roar erupted directly from his mouth, and a small dragon-shaped shadow wrapped in a massive black mist was repelled at the same time, but it immediately extended on its body Hundreds of rune chains were created, locking it tightly in Aixuri's body, and no matter what the young dragon did, it could not get rid of it.

"Don't even think about it! You traitor!" The Lich's voice rang out in the black mist. "I have buried so many tricks in your body. Come and fight me again when you are a hundred times older!"

"How about it, do you want me to take action and kill it?" Even now, Gracia's voice is still full of temptation, "I can promise you that I can completely erase it..."

"I kind of know why this is made so big," Ron ignored her. He raised his hand and gestured back and forth between the largest coin and the shadow of the lich, finally confirming the identity of the two. Relationship, "So that's how it's used."

"What are you going to do? What are you going to do?!" When Ron came over, the Lich's voice began to tremble and panicked, "I am his biological mother! You can't separate us! You will do it at the same time Kill him! You-"

"It's so noisy." Ron didn't wait for it to continue making noises. He gripped the coin tightly and patted it, "My dear, huh?!"

This brick was so powerful that the shadow of the lich immediately shrank, and Gracia, who was not far away, couldn't help but close her eyes.

"Can't separate, huh?!" "Kill him, huh?!" "I tm——"

Among the countless chains connecting Exuri and the Lich, three of the relatively weak ones shattered and dissipated the first time they faced each other. This was like triggering an avalanche, and the originally seamless connection was instantly broken. Devastated, when Ron poured all his strength into the coin for the last time, he almost made a sonic explosion, embedding the Lich completely into the ground!

However, when Ron was about to pursue the victory and give the opponent a few final blows, a big sword stopped in front of him.

"What are you going to do again?" Ron frowned and looked up at Gracia. Behind him, Axuri, who had woken up, also bared his teeth and growled, "You want to plead for it?"

"The most suitable place to torture a mortal is a prison, and the most suitable place to torture a soul is purgatory," Gracia smiled, "Whether you want to see it or not, I am in charge of the prison in Purgatory."

"Leave it to me, Ron. If you don't agree to it, I can't go back empty-handed, right?"

"What's the price?" Ron stared at Gracia, whose power had no effect on him at this moment.

"Hmm... do you have anything like a scroll of resurrection?" The Devil Archduke thought for a while, "Just one copy will do."

Ron took out the last remaining coin. It was stained with rust, but it seemed to be integrated with the gray fog around him.

Gracia put away the magic sword, clapped her hands with a smile, and summoned Caoga, the demon of desire who often came into contact with Ron and others: "Oh, this is really good. I should dedicate this to my father. To impeach the old guy for failing to maintain his neutrality - but that's boring."

The coin shattered into a cloud of powder in Ron's hands, and a purple halo enveloped the entire bottom of the pit.

"Okay, what do you think of this deal? I lost all my money, and I actually agreed to such a thing, ugh..." Gracia looked like she was resigned to her misfortune, but Ron would never believe her.

Ivy, who had reassembled her previous body and opened her eyes again to look at the clear world, would not believe it. Dreyfuddo won't do it, and neither will Gilenis - neither of the companions will believe in a devil, especially when the other party's name is Gracia.

But the devil never cares about this, especially Gracia.

"I don't understand," Ron suddenly said when he saw the Archduke imprisoning the Lich and was about to leave, "Why do you always want me to be loyal to you?"

"Toys you bring home will soon break, but the ones in the window are always good," Gracia smiled as a matter of course, "Don't worry, I will come to you again. How about using eternal life as a bargaining chip next time?"

"She will be disappointed," the moon elf spoke, but it seemed as if there were two of her speaking at the same time, "I suspect she locked the two parts of me together, and it will be troublesome to separate them later."

"What kind of trouble is that?" Sera searched the pit for her water bag for wine, but could only come back more angry, "Damn it, I'm already drinking at the same table with the most famous heroes in Valhalla! Suddenly I was Pull it back! I don't even remember what the wine there tastes like!"

"You can try it slowly when you get back, Sera," Sylvia's face was still pale, and she looked at Ron with her eyes rolling, "My benefactor, it seems that you have saved me again."

"There is no such thing as once or twice," Ron grinned, his body returned to its perfect state, and the constant itching of the new flesh reminded him of the reality of everything here, "Anyway, welcome back, guys."

"Welcome back to, uh, New Green Swamp Town?"

Ivy kicked his calf: "It's obviously a big pit here!" (End of this chapter)
