Even goblins are dangerous in this other world!

The Golden Apple Garden competition is about to begin, and this is the only opportunity for him to advance from the top four to the top five. If he misses this one, the next one will be another five years, and Dorrant must be able to get through those five years smoothly.

He couldn't wait any longer.

Thinking of this, he pushed open the bedroom door, hurried downstairs, came to the first floor, walked into the small space under the stairs, and lifted the green carpet under his feet.

There was a square wooden board underneath, which fit perfectly onto the floor.

He stretched out his hand, and a dark magic circle unfolded in his palm. Accompanied by a flash of light, the wooden plank slowly descended, revealing a dark hole.

There was a ladder on one side of the cave. Following the ladder down, Baal arrived at a dark and gloomy basement.

A crisp snap of fingers rang out, and streaks of eerie green flame rose from the walls, illuminating the basement.

Barr pushed aside a pile of miscellaneous items in the corner and dragged out a huge wooden crate.

It was an old-fashioned wooden box with no carvings or patterns on its surface, only some natural wood grain. It used a snap-fit ​​design and was locked with a huge rectangular iron lock.

"Boom boom boom——"

The moment Baal touched the box, a knocking sound came from inside the wooden box, like someone knocking on the door.

"Boom boom boom——"

As the box was completely dragged out, the knocking became more rapid, as if urging Baal to open it quickly.

As Barr listened to the continuous knocking, a smile appeared on his face:

"I know, I know, but you're still in such a hurry."

He blew the dust off the box, wiped the lid with his sleeve, and then a key appeared in his hand, which he inserted directly into the large iron lock.

"Click——"

The sound of the lock being opened was extremely clear in the basement.

Baal removed the lock, took a deep breath, and then reached out.

Slowly push open the lid of the wooden box.

"Whoosh-"

A faint breathing sound came from inside the wooden box.

"Whoosh-"

Rapid breathing came from Baal's nose.

He looked into the box and saw the "thing" inside. It was the key to his becoming the first-ranked deputy commander, the pillar of his life, and his greatest treasure!

It was a female corpse.

With its pale skin, 90-degree tilted head, backward-bent limbs, bloodless eyes, and vacant, lifeless pupils, it was undoubtedly a corpse.

But her long hair and clothes were soaking wet. Even though the wooden box hadn't been opened for so long, it was as if she had been soaking in water the whole time.

When Baal’s gaze fell on her, he saw that her head seemed to move.

That wasn't the flickering light from the wall next to us, absolutely not.

Barr knew this very well, because he clearly saw the woman's pale lips change from tightly pursed to parted, her pale, unfocused eyes gradually become bright, and then the woman stood up, leaning on her backward-bent limbs, and slowly walked towards him.

"You're here!"

The woman is smiling.

"I am coming."

Baal smiled at the motionless female corpse in the box.

……

Inside the casino where you can make money.

After explaining the next steps, Gane looked at the shocked crowd around him and was quite satisfied with the result.

He came to Kanriel with great resentment. To him, all the cities in the kingdom except the capital were rural areas, and he was unwilling to associate with these rural outcasts.

So he decided to transform this backward city, making it a place that could barely be worthy of him, and thus help him reach the top.

After thinking about it this way, he felt a little relieved of his inner turmoil. The fact that the common people of this city could contribute to his future path gave their boring lives some meaning.

Perhaps this trip to Kanril is not a stain on his life, but a turning point. He already has a series of plans in mind to completely exploit the city.

"Shh-"

The spreading black magic instantly receded into the numbers on the back of his hand, and the number 27 slowly disappeared.

The deterrent effect had been achieved. Gane straightened his sleeves and collar, then turned to leave.

Lying on the ground, Elijah stared at Gane as he turned and left, her eyes filled with hatred. She understood that Gane's suggestion to travel in Kanriel was not actually for the purpose of travel.

Her real purpose was to find a suitable place to release the message and achieve an initial deterrent effect on Kanriel. Therefore, she, Elijah, was destined to become his stepping stone to establish his authority, and no amount of flattery would help.

Gane walked toward the exit of the fourth area. The initial phase was complete, and he was ready to get a good night's rest.

But before he reached the door, a cold laugh came from behind him, making him stop in his tracks.

He turned around, his cold gaze meeting the mockery in Elijah's eyes.

?

are you crazy?

Gane looked at Elijah, who was lying on the ground and sneering, with a puzzled expression.

Elijah got up from the ground, looked at Gane, and said with a mocking look in her eyes:

"You wanted to have a deterrent effect, but you're too late. Look around, are they really afraid of you?"

Jia's heart sank. Looking at the crowd around him, he realized that there was no deep fear in their eyes, only some surprise.

Chapter 169 The Mushroom Monster Makes a Move

Inside the lobby of the Golden Casino, the people around Gane looked at him with hostile eyes and whispered among themselves.

Once the initial shock subsided, the crowd seemed to have no fear of Gane in front of them.

Gane's face darkened.

He was unhappy that his planned deterrence had failed to work.

"What's with the attitude..."

"If I were to clash with Lord Luo Xiu, it's hard to say who would win..."

"Does a mere fourth-rank superior think he can establish his authority? Doesn't our Kanriel have fifth-rank superiors...?"

The surroundings were still relatively quiet, with only a very few people standing at the back of the crowd, their lips moving slightly as they whispered amongst themselves, which Gane heard.

Some of these were automatically ignored, and some even seemed ridiculous.

If these backward and lowly people look down on me because I am a fourth-rank superior, then it only shows that their thinking is really too backward.

Even if I were to wreak havoc in Kanriel, would those fifth-tier beings dare to lay a hand on me? The forces behind me are not just ordinary fifth-tier beings.

Even if he rushed over and slapped these fifth-tier beings in the face, they couldn't do anything to him.

Bullying the weak is unacceptable in the capital.

The only thing that mattered to Jia Nei was the name Luo Xiu.

Before coming here, he had learned a little about several fifth-tier and upper-fourth-tier geniuses in Kanriel, but there was no one named Luo Xiu among them.

He had a feeling that perhaps this so-called "Luo Xiu" was the reason why the surrounding commoners had not been successfully intimidated.

Combining this with Elijah's words, "You're late," he thought about it more and more and it seemed very likely.

A dark magic circle appeared beneath his feet. He took a step forward, and his figure instantly moved in front of the person who had spoken those words, as if he had been launched into the air.

He waved his hand, and a black collar appeared around the man's neck, lifting him up and taking his feet off the ground.

Who is Luo Xiu?

Gane slowly opened his mouth.

"Yes Yes……"

The man gripped the collar with both hands and spoke with difficulty, recounting Luo Xiu's deeds in detail.

After listening to everything, Gane felt nothing; he even felt a little like laughing.

I never expected that Kanriel would produce such a "figure" who had intimidated Kanriel before me and had such a great presence. No wonder I couldn't instill fear in these lowly people even after defeating Elijah.

This really... makes things so much easier for him.

The corners of his mouth turned upward.

Now that such a person has appeared, all those complicated plans can be put aside. All that needs to be done now is to defeat that person.

No, perhaps we should ask him first; maybe he'll agree to be our vassal.

That way, they could kill two birds with one stone. By the time the two seeded players arrived, the strongest young generation in the city would already be under their command, and they would naturally lose the initiative.

"Hahaha."

Gane was overjoyed; this was the best news he had received since arriving in Kanriel. He couldn't help but burst into laughter, which echoed throughout the hall.

Seeing the way people around him were looking at him as if he had lost his mind, Gane grinned, a surge of anger rising within him.

Although he had found a better way and no longer needed to intimidate, he was still very... annoyed to see these stupid, lowly people around him mocking him.

Dark cracks appeared in the surrounding air, swirling and emitting a piercing whistle, as if to cut this space into pieces, leaving behind streaks of dark light.

The surrounding gambling tables and carpets turned to dust in an instant, merging into the dark storm.

The surrounding crowd fled in terror, rushing towards the exit door, only to find that the two handles of the door were bound together by a dark chain, making it impossible to open.

"Clang-"

The crystal chandelier overhead fell down and crashed to the ground, its fragments scattering into the air, swept up by the storm and hurtling in all directions.

Some people couldn't avoid it and were hit or grazed by the shards, causing blood to gush out and stain the air crimson, filling the air with a sweet, pungent smell of blood.

Painful screams filled the entire room.

"Shuashuashua——"
