Soon, a dozen or so humans arrived, and news of their attempt to seize the world boss spread among the goblins.

The goblins started beating drums and gongs, getting quite nervous.

In anticipation of the impending human invasion, they began constructing robust defensive fortifications.

Some goblins who had just come out of the dungeon were confused about what was going on.

Why are you so nervous all of a sudden?

"Such a big commotion? What happened?"

"Haven't you heard? Several hundred humans are preparing to attack!"

"A few hundred people? Why are we afraid of humans? If we each spit on them, we can drown hundreds of humans!"

"You don't understand! These hundreds of people are ridiculously strong!"

"You know the orcs, right?"

"You know, isn't that our number one threat?"

"The human race only needed ten people to conquer the orc city of Xilong!"

"And there are about four or five hundred human experts of that strength coming soon!"

"Wow? That's amazing?"

Upon hearing this news, the goblin who had just emerged from the dungeon was also dumbfounded.

"What are you standing there for? Stop standing there like an idiot and hurry up and help!"

The goblins were like headless flies.

Running wildly through the city.

They piled up logs and set up crossbows.

The entire camp was buzzing with activity, with people jumping around and chattering.

But this scene didn't last long.

Several strong goblins ran and slid to their knees as they approached the goblin camp commander, who was urgently setting up defensive fortifications!

"Sir, ha...ha..." The goblins were panting heavily.

It was clear that they had exhausted almost all their strength in running to their superior.

"Sir, why aren't you answering your messages?"

"Answer it! How am I supposed to answer it! The entire camp is in complete chaos, with thousands of messages coming in from top to bottom, and who the hell are you?" the officer yelled in a shrill voice.

"Sir, I have some new intelligence to report, it's very... ha... very urgent." The goblin gasped for breath.

"Speak!" the officer snapped, equally annoyed.

Things were already busy enough, and judging from the goblin's frantic manner, it was probably not good news.

“Three thousand…three thousand elite human warriors are coming to kill us! Three thousand! Each one is as strong as a world boss! We…we goblins are going to perish…ha…” He was still panting heavily.

In this world, it takes much longer to recover from overexertion of physical strength.

Upon hearing the news reported by the goblin, the commander's body trembled.

What?

Three thousand?

Is everyone as strong as the world boss?

Is the news true?

"It's true, it couldn't be more true, I saw it with my own eyes!"

"The number may not be entirely accurate, but there are at least three thousand!"

The goblin subordinate clung to the commander's leg and suggested, "If all else fails, let's just give them the city! Isn't that enough?"

"We know about the miserable state of the orcs, and I don't want to be wiped off this world!"

-------------------------------------

"Brother... will this really work?"

boom!

A bolt of fire fell not far away.

The celestial fire only hit the weeds and trees on the ground, but it didn't hit any goblins.

The white deer watched the goblins scattering in fright in the distance.

A hint of doubt crossed his face.

This is an open farmland, and around it are many scarecrows.

Beside the scarecrow, Lu Cang and Leng Qingying activated their phantom clones, working in conjunction with Leng Qingying's dagger.

Appearing and disappearing amidst the farmland, it truly possesses an omnipresent sense of mystery.

Furthermore, everyone released a sparse number of trash summons using scrolls from their backpacks.

In total, there were probably only twenty or thirty figures.

But to the goblins, these figures appeared as a massive army.

One, two, three, and another, and another, ten, a hundred, two thousand...

this

"Who knows? Let's go."

"Oh." Bai Lu said, puzzled.

Leng Qingying also withdrew the illusions around her and canceled the useless summons that the scrolls had conjured.

The group continued northward.

As for the group of goblins who happened to be nearby and were scared away, according to Lu Cang, they don't need to be bothered with.

"Speaking of which, this whole area is goblin territory, isn't it?"

The fearless warrior looked around and said, "I see that the nearby dungeons are all for the goblin race."

"Yes, this is all goblin territory."

The conversations along the way also allowed Lu Cang to supplement their knowledge of the Illusionary World.

This also deepened everyone's understanding of the Illusionary Realm.

Bai Lu and the others thought that Lu Cang was just teaching them some common sense.

Little did they know that many of these things they considered common sense were conclusions that had troubled the human race of the Illusionary Realm for decades, and that they had spent countless hours researching them.

During the exchange, everyone also gained a lot of understanding of the new, dull guild member.

Although the Stone Statue race is a lower-ranking race, there is a huge difference in strength between individual Stone Statue members.

Because they contain [unusual stones].

In short...

It's like in fantasy novels, where there are mortal bodies, as well as innate holy bodies, chaotic bodies, innate holy bodies, and Dao embryos, and so on.

Ordinary stone statues are just ordinary stones.

However, some stone statues are flawless divine stones, born without any defects, and their birth is preordained by true gods.

It could be a pure, flawless crystal, capable of inscribing all magic and reflecting all magic.

Ah, the difference between stones is greater than the difference between a person and a dog.

As for Zuya, he's not bad either.

The original embryo refined through a hundred processes.

It needs to be tempered and forged again and again in various ways to become stronger.

It went to find the adamantite furnace in order to complete its first forging.

Lu Cang originally went to the Refined Gold Forge with the aim of forging his equipment to a +5 enhancement level.

Another purpose was to find Zuya.

Lu Cang knew that Zu Ya would go to the adamantite furnace in the early stages, but he didn't know exactly when.

This time, we bumped into each other on the road, which saved us a lot of trouble.

Along the way, Lu Cang and the others did not continue to run dungeons.

Because the difference in level between Zuya and them is too great.

Since we can't run the same dungeon together, I can only help Zuya level up first.

Fortunately, the higher-level players can carry the lower-level players, making leveling up relatively easy.

Bai Lu swarmed the monsters on the map, and Zu Ya gradually leveled up to 33.

They chatted aimlessly as they traveled.

Suddenly the conversation turned to the Stone Statue Clan's guild.

"The Stone Statue Clan rarely establishes guilds? That seems strange."

"How can the Stone Statue Clan play without a guild?"

Zuya was about to explain.

Lu Cang explained to Zuya, "There is a unique racial correction."

"Depending on their own environment and different behavioral habits, races may be at a disadvantage in the Illusionary Realm. The Illusionary Realm will provide some balance corrections to the races."

"However, overall the bonuses will still be weaker than those gained from joining a guild normally."

The guild bonuses in the Fantasy Realm are quite appealing to any player.

Even though Lu Cang played the lone wolf style in his previous life, he still created his own guild to take advantage of various bonus attributes, and he also had an extra territory to use.

Players who join a guild, even the weakest one, will generally not lose out as long as there are no restrictive agreements.

Of course... if the guild needs to be supported by itself, then it's necessary to consider whether it has enough gold coins.

Making Zuya explain the stone statue himself, word by word, is too tedious.

It's better to take the initiative to explain yourself.

Now, with their innate ability to provide all-purpose explanations for information, the brave and fearless are not at all surprised that they know all sorts of information.

After traveling across the wasteland for some time, the surrounding air gradually became hot.

Before long, a barren, giant mountain came into view in the distance.

The mountaintop was flat, with faint black smoke rising from it.

It's like a volcano.

"We should have reached our destination. The location of the adamantite furnace is just ahead."
