Chapter 85: Uncovering the final secret of the underground palace...

Kandar's loyalty increased again.

Cao Xing nodded. Now that he had one more elite creature under his command, the overall strength of the team was also enhanced.

Challenging the powerful creatures in this palace will require a greater degree of confidence.

At this time, Liu Muxue was still constantly performing the [Purification Technique] to expel the [Ice Corruption] state from everyone.

It took about ten minutes and everything was ready.

Cao Xing took out the palace key again.

A system prompt appears.

[Do you want to use the palace key to open the door? ]

"Yes."

The key in Cao Xing's hand disappeared.

The next moment, everyone saw that the metal door in front of them began to shake again.

Rumble!
The two doors opened in the middle, revealing a gap.

Through the gap, Cao Xing saw a bright light appearing inside.

And when the door was completely opened.

A magnificent palace appeared in front of everyone.

There are all kinds of gilded decorations everywhere.

There are patterned floor tiles, golden pillars carved with patterns, and various extremely gorgeous decorations.

In it, Cao Xing even saw a throne.

The surface of the throne is golden, and the backrest is inlaid with many gems. Under the light, it reflects the bright light of the gems.

Just by looking at the appearance of this throne, you can tell that it must be of great value.

Cao Xing was immediately moved.

However, there was a figure leaning on the throne.

It was a goblin wearing azure armor and a crown.

Like the goblins outside, its body was also covered with a thick layer of frost.

Moreover, the symptoms are even more serious than those of the goblins outside.

The frost had even spread to its face.

However, this goblin seemed to still retain a last shred of sanity.

It said in a hoarse voice: "You are here."

Cao Xing stood behind it and looked at it blankly.

What the hell are we here for?
Did you know we were coming?
Cao Xing asked doubtfully: "Are you waiting for us?"

The goblin wearing the crown did not answer and continued to sit on the throne.

However, its right hand was shaking constantly, as if it was trying hard to suppress something.

At the same time, Cao Xing took a look at the attributes of this goblin.

[Status: Corrupted]

……

"Fuck!"

Seeing this guy's attributes, Cao Xing exclaimed in surprise.

A level 25, third-order boss-level creature with five skills and an advanced corrupted shell.

Over 700 armors! Even if Cao Xing stood there and hit him, he couldn't move at all!
Obviously, this was not a monster he could deal with at this stage.

At this moment, Cao Xing wanted to take his men and run away on the spot.

However, the goblin king spoke slowly.

"I made a mistake……"

"This mistake caused all my people to be infected with that terrible curse..."

Hearing this, Cao Xing keenly realized that this might be related to the current state of the Goblin King.

The Goblin King slowly said, "This human warrior, could you please help me remove this curse?"

Cao Xing was stunned when he heard this guy's lines.

Based on years of gaming experience, he keenly realized that he might have triggered some kind of hidden mission.

He asked doubtfully, "Help you? How?"

The Goblin King slowly stood up and said, "Kill me."

However, as soon as it finished saying this, its expression changed immediately.

The Goblin King's expression became extremely ferocious.

It suddenly turned around, rotated its head 180 degrees, and faced Cao Xing and others with the back of its head.

However, a distorted face appeared on the back of its head.

That face didn't look like a human at all, but rather like a wild beast.

Seeing this strange scene, Liu Muxue subconsciously tightened her weapon.

It let out a threatening roar towards everyone.

“Hurry!! Get out of here!!!”

The thunder-like roar sounded again.

Andrew, Sarah and others were ready for battle in an instant.
However, the next moment, the Goblin King turned his head back and regained that painful expression.

It said with difficulty: "As you can see, my consciousness has become increasingly confused, and I can no longer resist that kind of corruption."

"If this continues, my body will be completely controlled by this monster."

"Warriors, please help me free..."

At this point, Cao Xing finally understood.

This Goblin King was also afflicted with corruption, but more severely than the other Goblins.

There is even a terrible thing that parasitizes in its body.

But relying on its own willpower, it has been fighting for control of its body with the thing behind it.

And now it seems that it can no longer hold on.

Cao Xing scratched his head and said, "You can ask me to kill you, but I'm afraid that guy behind your head won't agree, right?"

"If you go crazy then, I won't be your opponent."

The Goblin King said slowly: "It's okay, I will try my best to help you and suppress the curse behind me."

The next moment, before Cao Xing could react.

The goblin king suddenly drew the long sword from his waist and pierced his chest with it.

puff!
[-21072] A terrifying damage number appeared.

The Goblin King's health points actually dropped to just over 20,000.

However, this action of the Goblin King seemed to irritate the human face behind it.

"Roar!!"

The beast-like roar appeared again.

It began to struggle frantically, as if trying to seize control of the Goblin King's body.

The Goblin King held the sword against his chest tightly, preventing it from being pulled out.

"Hurry...kill me!"

"I can't suppress this guy for long!"

When Cao Xing heard this, he immediately looked delighted.

Damn, there is such a good thing?

"Everyone, attack the Goblin King with all your might!"

"Let us help this poor sufferer to be freed!"

After hearing this, Assam, Andrew and others rushed over to besiege the goblin king.

Renis is the fastest.

She simply pulled the bowstring, and her proud chest stood up again.

call out!
【-twenty four】

A slight injury occurs.

This was the first time that Renis had inflicted double-digit damage.

Cao Xing was shocked.

"My goodness, this monster's defense is really strong."

This is the damage caused after Liu Muxue's Aurora Blessing and Courage Blessing.

Otherwise, Renis's attack would be even lower.

Bang!
Assam, Andrew, and Sarah's attacks also came at the same time.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

The only significant damage came from Sarah's attack.

Under the concentrated fire of everyone, the Goblin King's health dropped by almost 500 points.

Compared to its 20000 health points, it is really not worth mentioning.

Fortunately, the Goblin King will not fight back.

It still held the sword against its chest, trying its best to suppress the beast's face behind its head.

Cao Xing regained hope and said quickly, "Output! Output quickly!"

Everyone sped up their attacking movements.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-374! 】

After Sarah triggered [Gift of Liberation], the damage suddenly increased dramatically.

At the same time, a low growl continued to come from behind the Goblin King's head.

"Roar! Roar!"

The Goblin King's entire body was shaking violently.

"Hurry... hurry up!"

The Goblin King shouted, almost gritting his teeth.

Cao Xing was also helpless. I really want it to be quick too!

But your defense is too high!

I can't do it!
Uh-huh! Swish!

Everyone was attacking with all their might.

Three robots and two Centaurs also joined the battle.

According to the speed of everyone's actions.

Now the Goblin King's health is decreasing by about 500~600 points per second.

Ten seconds later.

The Goblin King's health has been reduced to 11,000.

At this moment, the Goblin King suddenly pulled out the sword from his chest.

It finally said with difficulty: "I... I can't hold it back anymore!"

A ferocious aura burst out from its body.

Cao Xing was stunned. "Damn it! Didn't you say you could suppress it?"

"This health point is not even halfway down!"

However, the Goblin King's pupils had turned white at this time, and a ferocious aura burst out from his body.

It seemed that something was not right.

Cao Xing quickly ordered, "Retreat! Everyone, retreat!"

However, Cao Xing's warning was still a step too late.

The Goblin King swept across directly.

Swish!
Assam, Andrew, including Sarah and Dabai, were all hit by the sword.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

Seven terrifying damage numbers floated up.

Assam and Andrew's health points dropped sharply in an instant.

The three robots and the Centaur were almost killed instantly by this sword!

It seems that the Goblin King is about to launch a second sweep!
Seeing this scene, Cao Xing immediately exclaimed: "Kandar, control it for me! Quick!"

At the critical moment, Kandal, who had just broken through to the elite level, threw the blunt weapon in his hand directly.

Bang!
【-twenty four】

Although the damage was slight, a vortex symbol successfully appeared above the Goblin King's head.

It was dazed.

Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered, "Everyone else, retreat!"
