The siege turned into street fighting.
Without the protection of the city walls, the weaker Goblins could barely hold on for long against such powerful firepower, suffering heavy casualties.
On the city walls.
Only Shadow Assassin, with the assistance of a few high-level troops, managed to open up the situation slightly and kill some Contract Adventurer who were severely mutated by the T-Virus.
These Contract Adventurer were mostly assassinated by Shadow Assassin at close range because their T-Virus had been active for too long, and their consciousness began to blur. Chu Yunxiao was also assassinated while his consciousness was dazed.
It was also at this moment.
Qi Maosong, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly rode out of the Kingdom on a motorcycle, holding a Goblin wearing a crown in his hand.
He didn't find the little Goblin when he rushed into the Kingdom this time.
Instead, he caught an old one.
Judging by his attire and decorations, he was undoubtedly the King of the Goblin Kingdom. Qi Maosong simply picked him up and carried him all the way to the city gate.
The King was still shouting, babbling something unintelligible.
Qi Maosong didn't indulge him. With a stylish stop, he delivered a 【Knee Kick】 to his backside, sending him flying into the air.
The motorcycle beneath him transformed into a revolver. Qi Maosong gripped it with one hand and unleashed a combo of Headshot and Floating Bullet, sending the Goblin King's corpse drawing a graceful arc through the sky.
To catch the bandits, first catch their leader. Now the King was dead.
Seeing this scene.
All Goblins were stunned. Almost instantly, they lost all will to fight.
Their morale plummeted.
Goblin General was dead, and the King was dead...
Almost all of their leaders had been sniped one by one. Now the Goblin legions were like headless flies.
They had no objective whatsoever.
And couldn't organize any decent counterattack.
Destruction.
It was only a matter of time...
After Qi Maosong killed the Goblin King and used the King's corpse to put on a fireworks show for all Goblin legions, the Goblin Kingdom was declared annihilated.
They were not without resistance.
If Shadow Assassin and many other high-level troops had held the city walls, the Contract Adventurer would have had a hard time dealing with them, and it would have taken a lot of effort to conquer them.
However, with the successive deaths of the General and the King.
They completely lost their will to fight and had no desire to continue. They were eventually pursued and killed during their escape.
The Adventurers showed no mercy when dealing with these dark and filthy races. After all, if these guys were allowed to escape, it would be hard to guarantee they wouldn't breed again in some dark corner.
At that time...
The ones who would suffer again would be tribes like Half-elf and Rabbit-Ear Person.
"Old Qi, I have to say, your ability to 'steal chickens and dogs' is pretty slick." Wu Yue swung the large axe in his hand, smashing a Goblin Shield Guard to death. Seeing that the general situation was settled, he couldn't help but pat his head and praise Qi Maosong.
It was clear that he genuinely wanted to praise him, but his praising skills still needed work.
Qi Maosong rolled his eyes, "What do you mean 'steal chickens and dogs'? This is called 'openly repairing the plank road while secretly passing through Chencang'. Lord taught me this."
"What plank road, what Chencang?" Wu Yue said blankly.
Qi Maosong waved his hand weakly, "Forget it, forget it. I can't explain it clearly to you. Let's get to work."
Fighting a war isn't over when the battle is finished.
After taking a city, there's a lot of follow-up work to be done.
The Dark World is relatively simple. There's no need to manage the so-called citizens of this Goblin Kingdom, no need to consider the Kingdom's operations. All that's needed is to wipe out all Goblins, clean up the corpses, and then tally the losses and gains.
However simple it may be, it still needs to be done by someone.
Most of the Contract Adventurer sacrificed themselves in the previous battle, so the inventory work fell to the remaining few people.
Chen Jiu was responsible for leading people to tally the personnel losses of the Golden Holy Lion and Blackrock Troll legions and leading the remaining legion members to deal with all the corpses.
For the corpses of Goblins and Harpy, they would extract all the magic crystals, gather them in a certain place for incineration, and finally tally the magic crystal gains.
The bodies of their own people would all be transported back. Golden Holy Lion and Blackrock Troll each lost over 400 people, but they still had dozens left.
With the help of transport vehicles, transporting these corpses was not a big problem.
Qi Maosong and Wu Yue, meanwhile, opened various warehouses and inventoried the supplies, finding the resources quite abundant.
Useful materials were kept, and useless ones were all given to the two War Lords. They could use any resources, even things like old leather.
The Guardian Stone had already been absorbed.
Chen Yu also spent 5000 soul crystals to activate a protective cover that could cover the entire Goblin Kingdom.
Then, a teleportation array was constructed.
The resurrected Contract Adventurer appeared successively from the teleportation array and joined the cleanup work.
Chen Yu also stepped into the teleportation array to come over.
Protected by the invincible protective cover, he didn't have to worry about his safety. Having finally conquered this large area, he had to come and see.
The Goblin Kingdom was an underground world, with huge stalactites hanging upside down overhead.
The space was vast.
Various primitive wooden buildings were scattered in every corner of the Kingdom, decorating this space. The architectural style of these Goblins was also quite unique; seemingly chaotic, with many bridges built in mid-air, but in reality, they connected some important buildings.
"These guys actually understand the principle that to get rich, you first need to build roads..."
Chen Yu looked around and couldn't help but say.
"The Goblin Kingdom's architecture is indeed quite complete, possessing rare-grade blacksmiths, textile mills, alchemy shops, and other special buildings. Basically, it has everything."
Chen Yu opened the blacksmith shop and glanced inside, slightly surprised, "There are even some basic rare-grade equipment blueprints inside. It seems these Goblins also once crafted rare-grade equipment. This way... as long as enough materials are gathered, a full set can be directly crafted for the Contract Adventurer."
Crafting rare-grade equipment requires basic materials like refined iron, hundred-forged steel, and even mithril, plus some high-grade magic materials, making it expensive.
Li Siya had transported a lot of refined iron, and Chen Yu had also stockpiled some magic materials earlier. If he really didn't have enough, he could buy them from the system's black market, which would be enough to craft a full set for the Contract Adventurer.
