"Get out of my way!"
Looking at the bloodstains on the back of her foot, Ouyang Qianjin waved her finger with a dark expression.
The two centaur skeletons used their spears to send the guy who called himself Canon flying three meters away.
Then, Ouyang Qianjin struck Canon with a scorching phosphorescent fire.
"Ah...it's so hot! Master! Please have mercy...uh, it's not that hot..."
The moment he was set ablaze, Canon rolled on the ground, screaming and begging for mercy as he rolled.
But after regaining his senses and realizing that the flames had no effect on him, he knelt down again.
In no time at all, the 'residue' on his body disappeared.
"Thank you, merciful master, for bestowing upon your servant the baptism of holy fire!"
Although I don't know what this fire is.
But Canon still kowtowed to the ground and gave a deep bow to Ouyang Qianjin.
"Your name is Canon?"
While Sebastian was changing her socks, Ouyang Qianjin asked seriously.
"Yes, Canon is your most loyal servant."
The goblin skeleton Kanon lay prostrate on the ground, answering humbly.
"What are your skills, or what do you think you can bring to me?"
"Master, the Canon Society has a wide range of services: mechanical repair, manufacturing, sales, and transportation; weapon and armor production, repair, and maintenance; ore exploration, mining, and refining; and even house design, site selection, and construction, among other skilled trades..."
Upon hearing that Miss Ouyang wanted him to demonstrate, Canon rattled off everything he knew, like spilling beans.
Hearing this, Miss Ouyang was overjoyed.
The gray-skinned goblin truly lives up to its name.
It's astonishing that a mere gray goblin knows so much. But...
"They probably aren't very specialized, right?"
Ouyang Qianjin glanced at Canon indifferently.
"Hehe, as expected of my great master, you saw through me so easily. After all, I was only 50 years old when I died, still very young. If I had another hundred years, I would definitely have mastered these skills."
Canon looked at Ouyang Qianjin with adoration, his ghostly blue soul flame flickering in the light.
...
All right.
Ouyang Qianjin wasn't particularly interested in the lifespans of these otherworldly creatures.
Anyway, she's a necromancer now.
Theoretically, it is possible to achieve 'immortality' in lifespan.
She didn't care how long others lived.
"How did you and your people end up in this fortress? Weren't you supposed to be in the far north?"
Ouyang Qianjin asked a question that both Sebastian and she herself wanted to know.
“Uh… Master, my Gray-skinned race left the far north three hundred years ago…”
Canon scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.
"As for why we came out, I don't know either. I only heard the old chieftain say that it was because another tribe had occupied our homeland, and we couldn't defeat them, so we fled."
"The reason why I and my former tribesmen are here is because we were captured by our slave-hunting team a few years ago."
So that's how it is, three hundred years?
It's been out for quite a while already?
Even Sebastian didn't know.
So, he must have come out after Sebastian's death, otherwise he would have known and told me.
Ms. Ouyang sat in her wheelchair, swaying slightly.
I have a general understanding of the information I want.
She had no interest in what happened three hundred years ago that would cause these grey goblins to leave their homeland.
After all, as long as I'm alive and well, that's all that matters.
Besides.
This guy isn't even born yet, so even if you wanted to ask him more questions, he probably wouldn't know.
"Then you should be very familiar with the situation inside this fortress, right?"
The young lady from the Ouyang family asked about the topic that interested her most.
"Of course, these savage centaurs have been forcing us to work ever since they captured us, but they don't trust us slaves."
"These damned beasts actually made us gray-skinned goblins maintain the weapons and armor made by the dark-skinned dwarves!"
"This is an insult to us!"
Canon would fly into a rage whenever this was brought up.
"What gray goblin, what black dwarf? You're a skeleton now, an undead skeleton."
Ouyang Qianjin didn't mind giving this newcomer, who was a bit confused about the order of things, a little harsh.
However, Canon's answer dispelled one of her doubts.
That explains why these centaurs are using dwarven equipment, while the Zhang brothers have brought out a bunch of goblins.
It seems like everyone else feels the same way I do – they don't trust these guys either.
But thinking about it, it makes sense.
Regardless of whether these goblins have any real skills or not.
It's unlikely that anyone would want to use weapons and equipment produced by a bunch of slaves.
Otherwise, if you encounter a stubborn, fun-loving person who isn't afraid of death and produces defective products, that would be a real disaster.
"Yes, yes, of course, my life was given to me by my master."
After being prompted by Ouyang Qianjin, Canon immediately came to his senses.
Then, very smoothly and obediently, he kowtowed several times to the young lady Ouyang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, to show his loyalty.
Of course, Ouyang Qianjin knew how loyal this guy was to her.
Or perhaps it was originally a creature it transformed itself into, and it's a skeleton, so its loyalty is '∞' from the start.
However, as the 'superior,' Ouyang Qianjin was still very willing to give her subordinates a chance to show their loyalty.
Especially considering that he only has two 'talking' underlings under his command right now.
