Although the experience just now seemed like a dream, the changes in the panel were real. All six of his skills had evolved, and the effects were more amazing than the last. "Temperance", which evolved from "Patience", has the effect of reducing the consumption of all dynamic values by 90%, completely covering the previous effect of reducing life and endurance consumption. "Compulsion", which evolved from "Super Fusion", can forcibly seize the skills of others, and can retain up to three at the same time. The effect of "Fantasy Construction" seems to be similar to the original "Fantasy Materialization", but it has the ability to construct complex structures, and it seems that even intangible things such as energy can be constructed. As for "full evolution", it seems that the ability of goblins of different races can be used, but the prerequisite is that goblins of that race must recognize one's rule. So the four major tribes that one has integrated so far seem to be usable. The fifth evolved skill, “Void Blaster”, is almost a deluxe upgraded version of the shock wave. It does not require charging, and has a longer range and increased power. Finally, there is the "Evil Arrival", which evolved from the "Evil Summoning". The types and numbers of summoned creatures have been greatly improved. If the previous Evil Summoning was mostly functional, then the current Evil Arrival can be said to be able to really summon a powerful army of evil creatures. However, what Isidor was most concerned about was not these skills that were so powerful that they seemed like cheating, but two other changes on the panel: First, his race became the "Evil Goblin", which seemed to be the end of the evolution of the system called the "Evil Goblin Development System". Another disturbing change was that his ghost value really became 666 points, which was exactly the same as the dice girl's prediction. According to the dice girl, when the ghost value reaches "666", something very dangerous will happen. And the dice girl also warned him that once the ghost value reaches 666, he must never touch the Cup of Babylon again. He vaguely felt that all these things were inextricably linked, but there was too little information and he couldn't analyze an accurate result. A strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart, and Isidor felt that he seemed to be getting a little manic. Could it be that the Demon Lord's deprivation of his soul has not yet ended? After all, there was still no breakthrough in his spiritual and magic attributes. Thinking of this, Isidor took out the atavism potion given by Esina. "Emmeline, are you there?" Isidor asked. "Here." Emmeline was indeed waiting nearby, and she stood up when she heard Isidor's call. "What are the auxiliary ingredients of the atavism medicine besides dragon heart?" asked Isidor. "We also need Hydra's Gallbladder and Emerald Dream Dust. The former can activate the body and alleviate the pain of the atavism potion transforming the body, while the latter can protect the spirit from collapsing in severe pain. Combined with the powerful vitality provided by the dragon heart, the side effects of the atavism potion can be greatly reduced. However, these two things are hard to come by and may be difficult to obtain for the time being. I only read about them in books when I was in school." Emmeline said. "Please describe in detail the appearance, characteristics, smell, etc. of these two things. The more detailed the better," said Isidor. Although she felt a little strange about Isidore's request, Emilyne was not the type to ask for reasons for everything. She told Isidore her detailed descriptions of the two things, and the latter wrote them down carefully and spent several hours to understand the details. "If you want to get the materials as quickly as possible, you'd better try to reunite with your sister as soon as possible. Her prophecy can make it easier to find these things, and it will be safer to take the medicine with her around," Emmeline suggested.
"For some reasons, I can't go find her for the time being, but I also have a way to get these things." Isidor thought of the fact that Dice Lady warned him not to touch the Cup of Babylon, and he couldn't help but sighed, then stretched out his hands and constructed the two materials of Hydra's Gallbladder and Emerald Dream Dust according to the information he had just learned. "This...how did you do it! Although I know that you can create objects out of nothing, but can you even make such rare materials?!" Emmeline said in surprise. "I'll explain it to you later. Please watch over the cave and don't let anyone disturb me. I'm going to take the medicine." Isidor said as he threw the atavism potion into his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp, then took the three auxiliary medicines in turn. Compared to the burning heat of the dragon's heart and the bitterness of the Hydra's gall, the atavism medicine had no taste. However, not long after the three auxiliary medicines were taken, Isidor felt a strong signal surge into his brain. What followed was an excruciating pain. Although he was mentally prepared, the intense pain still made Isidor's muscles tense immediately. He bit the towel he had prepared in advance and sweated all over. For a moment, all his senses seemed to be closed, or they were overwhelmed by the intense pain and could not work normally. It was as if every cell was being tortured to death. And this pain seemed to last for hours. Isidor bit the towel hard, trying to make sure he was awake. He could clearly feel that his body was gradually changing, growing and dying repeatedly. This internal change quickly reflected on the surface of his body, and wounds began to appear on his skin, with blood flowing out. Fortunately, the dragon heart continuously provided vitality, so this little blood loss was nothing to him. But at the same time, the pain was getting worse and seemed to be getting closer to his head. He felt as if his head was about to explode, and his consciousness gradually became blurred. "Are you okay? The reaction seems bigger than expected?" Just when he was about to lose consciousness, Isidor heard Emmeline calling him. "It's not good. Even if my will can still hold on, my body can't take it anymore. It may be that the materials constructed by fantasy cannot fully exert their medicinal effects." Isidor covered his head with his hands and tried to answer. Seeing that Isidor was sweating too much, Emmeline took out some water and opened his mouth to feed him. However, this did not improve Isidor's pain. "Do we have to use the final measure that my sister mentioned so soon? Damn, if only she were here... I always feel a little sorry for my sister if I do it..." Emmeline looked at the trembling Isidor, and seemed to have finally made up her mind. Chapter 110 The way to relieve the pain is actually—— "Emilyn, what are you going to do?" Isidor asked with pain as he watched Emilyn gradually walk towards him. "My sister said that when living things are on the verge of death, their reproductive instinct will be awakened. If we can make good use of this, it can distract your attention and reduce the pain." Emmeline said, gently unbuttoning her skirt and removing her tight clothes. Isidor wanted to say something else, but Emmeline had already sat on him without saying a word. Although she looks a little childish, Emmeline is half elf after all, so her actual age is older than she looks. From a human perspective, she is probably around twenty years old. ...... Isidor slowly stood up with the help of the wall, feeling his steps were weak. Emmeline picked up a mirror and handed it to him. He took the mirror and saw that his appearance seemed to have changed a little. The green color of his skin had completely faded, and the shape of his ears was closer to that of an elf. However, compared to the changes in appearance, what he could feel more was an inner fulfillment. When he opened the panel, he saw that his spirit and magic had indeed been greatly improved, all increasing to 550 points. Although this value was not much compared to his other attributes, it meant that he had broken the Goblin's limit and could afford the consumption of skills such as Fantasy Construction and Evil Advent. Even if you want, you can learn magic. However, his race was still "evil goblin" on the panel. From this point of view, the atavism potion did not seem to completely change his race. In this case, would he still be restricted by the demon king? Isidor shook his head. He knew that it was useless to think too much now, so he ordered Enges to be called over and asked him to pass the message to the four major tribes, collect intelligence about the surroundings, and try to make a detailed map if possible. "Please don't tell my sister about what happened just now." Emily said in a low voice after Engels left.
"Don't worry, I won't tell her." Isidor didn't know what to say. After all, the other party volunteered to save his life, which was a temporary measure to some extent. He could only simply agree and skipped it without mentioning it again. Since he had just taken over the chief's job, it took him half a month to compile the intelligence around the tribe and write a report in Goblin language to submit to Isidor. "Your Majesty, according to the intelligence we have collected so far, our south is basically snow-capped mountains and there are no forces; to the north is vast snowfields with some demi-humans living here and there; to the east and west are demi-human countries, but the nearest distance is about 500 miles from here. The Baigu Tribe once traded with them, but because the goblins don't have any decent goods, there is not much traffic. As for the information about the elves you asked about, I have asked all the shamans of the four tribes. Before meeting Miss Emilyne, everyone had only heard of the legend of the elves and had never seen a real elf. The detailed report is in the report presented to you, and I can answer any questions at any time." Enges reported respectfully. Isidor carefully read the report provided by Njes, and suddenly asked: "Since this place is very far away from the subhuman race, how do you reproduce?" "Reproduction? This... is normal reproduction... just follow your instinct." Njies was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand why Isidor asked this question, so he blurted it out. But he soon realized that how could such a powerful and far-sighted king like Isidor ask such a superficial question? There must be some deeper meaning in it that he didn't understand. Thinking of this, Njies couldn't help but sweat. Countless answers swirled in his mind, but in the end there was no definite result. But he didn't dare to let Isidor wait too long, so he had to choose the answer he thought was most likely. "Your Majesty, are you choosing a concubine? If so, I can select females of appropriate age from the four major tribes and show them to you." Enges probed. "What? Selecting a concubine? No, no, no, what I mean is, are you going to reproduce within the same race? Wouldn't that lead to the degeneration of your offspring?" Isidor asked curiously. "Degradation? I'm sorry, I'm incompetent and I really don't understand what you mean. But we do intermarry within our race, and before the dragons came, the tribes also intermarried." Enges answered somewhat bewilderedly. "That's strange." Isidor frowned. It seemed that the goblins living here would not plunder females of other races for reproduction, and they did not decline because of this. Why was this? "Your Majesty, do you want me to call the chiefs of the other three tribes or more knowledgeable shamans to ask questions?" Njies was unable to answer Isidor's question and felt a little panic, so he suggested. "No need, just give me the maps you collected." Isidor said. "Yes, Your Majesty. This is the map that the Bone Worshiping Tribe exchanged from the Eastern Demi-Human Kingdom. Since the goblins' own maps are so crude, we have no choice but to give you this one." Engels quickly handed the map to Isidor with both hands. Isidor opened the map and saw that it was a set of exquisite atlases. It not only had the surrounding geographical conditions, but also a simplified version of the map of a larger area. Isidor flipped through it for a while, then suddenly frowned and called Emmeline to his side. "If this map is true, then this place is probably at least four or five thousand miles away from Ravenstern. It seems that the teleportation magic has indeed sent us to the Far North. If we go further north across the ice sea, we can reach the ancient capital of the elves. It seems that we have been sent to the right place, but I don't know if Esna and the others are nearby." Isidor said as he showed her the map. "The goblin tribe is still too isolated. I think it would be better to try our luck in the country of the subhumans. Since they can make such a beautiful map, they must have other information as well." said Emilyne. "That's right. Let's go to the country of the demi-humans and introduce some new technologies to the Goblin Kingdom." Isidor nodded. "Your Majesty, are you leaving?" Engels asked anxiously. "That's right. During the time I'm away, the chiefs and shamans of the original four major tribes will discuss government affairs together. In addition to the chief, each tribe will elect four shamans, a total of twenty people, called 'elders'. In addition to the four chiefs, the other fifteen elders will rotate every year. This decision-making body will be called the 'Senate'." Isidor said, calling the four chiefs in and announcing the news that he was about to leave. Chapter 111: The Sacrifice of Hebran "Your Majesty, this is probably not appropriate. As a king, if you are going to visit a foreign country, it is better to bring some followers with you. If you want to discuss trade, it is best to bring the chief of the Bone Worshiping Tribe with you. He is the oldest among us and knows the most." Njies suggested. Isidor thought so too, but it was not in his character to bring too many followers. So after some discussion, he decided to take only four chieftains, plus Emmeline, for a total of six people to the eastern demihuman country. According to the report of the chief of the Bone Worshiping Tribe, at least five kinds of sub-humans live together in the sub-human kingdom in the east of the Goblin Territory, and the vast majority of them are "Hibran people". This is a kind of subhuman that looks similar to humans, but with a slimmer body. Their physical abilities are generally inferior to humans, but their use of magic is superior to humans. In addition, they are also good at various sophisticated and detailed techniques. The map in Isidor's hand was made by them. "Since it's a state visit, shouldn't we also prepare some gifts?" Isidor asked before leaving. "The common currency in the Demihuman Kingdom is mainly silver, but unfortunately there are no silver mines in the Goblin territory. But perhaps we can bring some bone tools from our tribe. The Hibran people still like them very much, but the journey is too long and they are unwilling to trade." said the chief of the Bone Worshiping Tribe. The chief of the Chongya tribe and the chief of the Jiehuo tribe, Yan Yade, also offered suggestions. The Chongya tribe suggested bringing some rare animal skins, while the rough man Yan Yade suggested bringing some dried animal meat. In his opinion, there was no gift more practical than food. "Enjes, what do you think?" Isidor asked.
"In my opinion, you can just bring some casual gifts. Although the population of the Demi-human Country is large, there is definitely no one as strong as you. If you deliberately prepare exquisite gifts, it will seem unworthy of your status." Engels suggested. "That's exactly what I want! Then let's prepare something as the three chiefs said!" Isidor nodded. After the gifts were prepared, Isidor used Fantasy Construction to create two carriages, and then summoned four dicorns to pull the carriages. The dicorns were one of the new summons added after the upgrade of Evil Summoning. Their combat ability was not strong, probably only equivalent to that of a B-level adventurer. But their endurance and speed were good, making them very suitable as mounts or pack horses. Seeing that Isidor created so many things out of thin air, the four chiefs wanted to worship him as a god - even the legendary Goblin King did not have such magical power! "Your Majesty, since you can create things out of thin air, you might as well change yourself into an outfit worthy of a king," suggested Njies. "Yes! Why didn't I think of this!" Isidor slapped his forehead and materialized a robe and a set of luxurious clothes according to his own size. He also made clothes for Emmeline and the four chiefs. He also built weapons and armor for them according to their habits. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!" The four chiefs knelt on the ground and worshiped. "Okay, okay, stop it, let's get going!" Isidor smiled and pulled all four people up. He let Engels drive in front, and he and Emily sat in the car; the other three chiefs took another car, and the group of six headed straight to the east. Although the territory of Xibran is more than 500 miles away from here, after walking more than 300 miles, we can already see some villages sporadically. Although it is a village, there is not much arable land to be seen. It looks far less fertile than the goblin territory, and there are not many residents to be seen. When the carriage passed through the village, only a few skinny children hid behind the door and looked curiously at the two-horned beast pulling the carriage. "It seems that no one here farms. What do they eat? Do they hunt like you?" Isidor asked curiously. "The Hibulan people's farmland is built underground, and their staple food is a kind of mushroom. Look over there - there are entrances to cellars at regular intervals. Those are the crypts used by the Hibulan people to grow mushrooms." explained the chief of the Bone Worshiping Tribe. "I see. Can you eat that kind of mushroom?" Isidor asked. "Mushrooms are not poisonous, so they are edible. But they taste weird. I tried them and found them disgusting." Chief Bai Gu shook his head. "It seems that this cannot be used to solve the goblin's food problem." Isidor said thoughtfully. Just as he lowered his head to think, he suddenly heard a quarrel in front of him. Isidor looked in the direction of the sound and saw several soldiers in armor snatching a baby from a woman's arms. "Please let her go! She was only born a few days ago!" The woman begged in human language with a slightly strange accent. "Stop talking nonsense. The king has ordered that every village must hand over a baby. Since your family has been selected, you must hand it over! Otherwise, you will have to hand over five people's worth of internal organs! There are less than five people in your family, right?" The soldier pushed the woman away and snatched the crying baby into his hands. "Sir, please let her go! This is the only silver our family has. Can you please..." The man of the family ran to the soldier and begged anxiously, holding a bag of silver coins. The soldier looked at Baiyin with a hint of greed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it: "We are also following orders, don't make trouble! This is a national festival, not just for your family!" "We have lived here for decades and have never heard of any grand sacrifice. What happened to the king?" The man wiped his tears while holding the bag of silver, while the woman had already fallen to the ground and burst into tears. "Can you help them? This kind of thing brings back some bad memories for me." Emmeline asked, pulling Isidor's clothes. "Okay, but we are a foreign delegation, so it's better not to kill anyone. Use this to tie them up." Isidor said, and constructed a few chains and handed them to Emilyne. "Yes." Emmeline agreed, picked up the chain, jumped off the carriage, and walked straight towards several fully armed soldiers. "Who is it? Don't come any closer!" The soldiers spotted Emmeline and quickly drew their weapons to be on guard. After all, anyone who wasn't a fool could see the obvious hostility in Emmeline's eyes. The weapons in the hands of these soldiers are broadswords with gemstones inlaid on the hilts, which should have some kind of enchanted effect. Generally speaking, it is quite a luxury to equip ordinary soldiers with such enchanted weapons, so these people should at least belong to the elite troops. However, Emmeline didn't care about these. She didn't even use the bow and arrow. Instead, she walked directly to the soldiers, snatched the baby and handed it to the woman, then used an iron chain to block the sword's attack, and then locked them up one by one with an indifferent expression. Although Emmeline was an archer, she had amazing strength because she had been shooting hard bows for many years. Even in bare-handed combat, she was as strong as an S-level adventurer. How could a few elite soldiers resist her? Emmeline threw a few tied-up soldiers onto Yan Yade's car. When the soldiers saw such a big goblin in the car, they were so scared that they shouted "Goblin invasion!" and so on.
Yan Yade was annoyed, so he got out of the car and grabbed a bunch of dirt and stuffed it into their mouths. "Don't worry, no one will hurt you." Isidor got off the carriage and comforted the woman holding the baby. "We're done for. Although I'm very grateful that you saved my daughter, we have offended the king's guards and we are doomed to die. You should leave quickly! Their troops are nearby! I'm afraid they have heard the noise of fighting!" The woman said palely, hugging the baby tightly. "Their target is babies or internal organs, and they also mentioned sacrifice. I'm afraid..." Emmeline walked to Isidor and reminded him. "I know this matter is by no means simple. This is a good opportunity to get to the bottom of it to avoid future troubles." Isidor nodded.
