Goblin Simulation: Building a Dark Empire

Even though her hands were burned by the strange flames on her husband's body, she refused to let go.

Crystal-clear tears flowed down her cheeks.

The tears fell onto her husband's body, evaporating into steam and dissipating.

In that instant, the moment of destruction arrived.

The section of the city wall where the gate was located.

Suddenly, a web-like crack of flames burst into a raging blood fire.

"Ah!"

The human soldiers on the wall, who hadn't had time to escape, were instantly consumed by the blood fire.

In almost an instant, they were reduced to ashes.

Even the armor they wore melted into a pool of molten iron.

In that moment, a dazzling flash of fire appeared.

The city wall where the gate was located suddenly exploded.

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar echoed.

Accompanied by the shaking of the earth and mountains.

A massive mushroom cloud of flames slowly rose from the city wall where the gate was.

A nearly three hundred-meter-wide section of the wall was blasted into the sky.

The ascending blood fire shot up a thousand meters into the air.

Flaming debris rained down like a celestial shower.

The city behind the wall suffered immediately.

A large amount of flaming debris crashed into the city like falling meteors.

Many houses collapsed and caught fire.

Amidst the rumbling bombardment, screams echoed throughout the city.

Thick smoke rose from various parts of the city.

The demon army outside the city was also affected.

The Barbarians fled in panic, avoiding the falling flaming debris from the sky.

"It's broken, it's broken, good!"

The ghost beastmen in front of the demon army showed excitement at the rain of fire.

With the wall breached, it was time for the army to charge.

Douglas's lips curled slightly as he raised his hand and pointed forward.

Iron Face quickly took the horn hanging from his waist.

Just as he was about to blow it, his expression changed.

As the flames dissipated, a massive azure magic barrier suddenly appeared at the ravaged breach.

The magic barrier was dome-shaped.

Like an overturned bowl.

And within the magic barrier appeared a massive steel figure.

It stood about five meters tall, its entire body covered in thick iron armor.

On its shoulder rested a gigantic Big Iron Rod.

"It's the Goblin King!"

The familiar steel figure made the ghost beastmen's expressions change slightly.

Douglas also frowned slightly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Previously, the two sides were allies, but now they had become enemies.

Inside the magic barrier, Sandra stared blankly at the steel giant before her.

His appearance was so sudden.

Just as the scarlet flames erupted.

He suddenly descended from the sky.

Li Meng's massive head lowered to look at the human woman.

"Woman, you're really beautiful. Be my queen!"

Li Meng's muffled voice echoed from within the helmet.

The sudden voice in her mind brought Sandra back to her senses.

Her face flushed slightly as she looked down at her husband.

"He's my husband!"

Such a large figure, could he be from the giant tribe?

The giant tribe lived on the central continent, how could they appear on the southern continent?

And from his build, he didn't quite look like one.

Li Meng glanced at the human man in Sandra's arms.

"He's almost turned to charcoal, isn't he hot?"

The human man was burning, yet the woman still refused to let go.

The human woman's arms were also being eroded by the strange blood fire.

Sandra gently shook her head.

Not only did she not let go, but she held on even tighter.

"Seems I shouldn't have saved you, at least you could die a bit more peacefully."

It was clear the human woman intended to die with her husband.

Burning away bit by bit, how much pain must that be?

Li Meng wasn't in the habit of torturing people.

"Guess I saved you for nothing, let me send you on your way."

Saying this, Li Meng raised the Big Iron Rod and swung it down at the two.

With this strike, the two would be smashed into pulp without any pain.

From beginning to end, Sandra remained unmoved.

When she heard Li Meng say he would send them on their way.

A flash of gratitude appeared in Sandra's eyes.

"Master, wait!"

At this moment, Xiao Bai suddenly spoke up to stop his master.

The massive iron rod halted just above Sandra's head.

A blast of air erupted, sweeping the surroundings.

"Xiao Bai, why stop me?"

"Master, you can save them."

"We still have to fight later, can't waste too much magic on them."

"Master, it won't consume much of your magic."

"Master, these two hold high positions, if they live, they can lead the humans to voluntarily withdraw from the Garrison Fort."

"Why let the humans leave?"

"Master, if you want to take the Garrison Fort without provoking a frenzied counterattack from the humans, you must let the humans leave."

"Master, you're not yet ready to oppose all of humanity."

"Even if I let them go, the crusade army will still come, right?"

"Master, it's different. The human nations aren't united; only a few neighboring the outer regions are interested. Other countries might only symbolically respond to the Papal State's call. But if you make the human nations feel threatened, you'll become a thorn in their side, and by then, the crusade army will be unstoppable."

"Xiao Bai, how do you know so much?"

"Master, when you've lived long enough, you'll find that some things never change, even after millennia."

"Alright, I won't kill them then."

Though he wouldn't kill them, he wouldn't save them for nothing either.

Just as Li Meng was about to say something to the human woman.

In the distance, the Flame Demon Lord let out a massive roar.

Its golden eyes fixed on the massive steel figure within the magic barrier.

Li Meng waved his hand, and the magic barrier dissipated.

"What's the rush, wait a moment!"

Li Meng roared at the Flame Demon Lord.

The Flame Demon's massive golden eyes narrowed.

Its advancing steps halted.

Seeing the Flame Demon Lord waiting obediently, Li Meng then looked down at Sandra.

"Sir, the Goblins are stalling for time!"

Iron Face stepped forward to remind Douglas.

The commotion in the canyon behind grew louder.

Iron Face knew the Goblin army was attacking from the rear.

Douglas waved his hand slightly.

"No worries, we have plenty of time."

Even if the Goblin army was fast, they couldn't arrive in a short time.

No matter how much the Goblins stalled, they couldn't delay for long.

Demons were impatient dimensional beings.

At this moment, at the breach in the city wall.

"I can save your husband!"

Hearing this, Sandra, who was despairingly awaiting her fate, showed a hint of emotion.

She looked up at the steel giant before her.

"I won't save for free, I have conditions!"

Sandra looked down at her unconscious husband, whose eyes were closed.

After a moment, she looked up at the steel giant.

"As long as you can save my husband, I'll agree to anything."

Inside the helmet, Li Meng grinned.

"After I save your husband, you must lead the humans from the Garrison Fort to retreat."
