Chapter 128: My Comrades

Those green hands were covered by thick layers of dust due to long periods of carrying bricks.
There were 400 to 500 similar Goblins.
A 1.5-meter long small Black Dragon sprawled at his cave entrance. The two claws were clasped on the rock walls, and he revealed half his face as he observed the surroundings discreetly.
His small tail was swinging excitedly as though he had seen something interesting.
As the great Eternal Guardian of Death, Dark Flaming Mana Lord, the Dark Scorch Hot-Tempered Dragon was warned by the evil superior Devil. “Don’t use your Dragon Speech Mana to create illusions. Otherwise, I’ll forfeit your chance for corrective labor and execute you immediately!”
The superior Devil wasn’t joking!
Eggface saw that he was serious from his gaze.
Eggface couldn’t help quivering his rounded body when he thought about the terrible Devil.
Eggface was prohibited from using his Dragon Speech Mana, so his plan to subjugate the weak Goblins as his servants was dashed.
But he had an alternative plan, which was to use his Dragon Aura to attract the Goblins! He was going to tell them that there was a terrifying Huge Dragon at this location!
Ao!
Eggface instinctively opened his mouth and made a soundless wail.
Then, he extended his Dragon Aura to engulf the heads of the vulnerable Goblins.
“After carrying these bricks, my Reputation Level will upgrade to Level 2.”
“What? You’re leveling up that fast?”
“I worked for half a month! My hair’s getting bald!” the Goblin pointed at his bald green head and shouted.
Eggface frowned. This Goblin wasn’t honest. He didn’t have any hair at all!
Why did the Goblins not kneel down in fear?
Eggface tried to boost his Dragon Aura…
Thirty minutes later…
A small Black Dragon sat on the ground and leaned on his bed. His rear legs were sprawled on the ground listlessly. He wanted to place his front legs on the rear legs, but they were too short. Even if he curled up his soft white belly, he couldn’t do that.
He shrugged as tears of grievance welled in his eyes.
As a Black Dragon, he couldn’t even intimidate a few hundred Goblins.
The Goblins were chatting jovially even when he was exerting his Dragon Aura. After excavating the Diamond Seam, they would pick up fallen clay and eat like nothing had happened.
Dragon Aura? They didn’t even fart.
As Eggface was despondent, a figure appeared before him. It was a Lich.
Eggface lifted his head and watched the Lich. Then, he lowered his head and said, “I’m Eternal Guardian of Death, Dark Flaming Mana Lord, Dark Scorch Hot-tempered…”
“Eggface… is that correct? Can I address you like that?” the Lich asked politely as he looked at Eggface.
He was a Black Dragon and a pretty young one. Only a superior Devil could be insolent to a Black Dragon.
“… powerful, all-knowing Dragon.” Eggface finally finished reciting his script.
“Please allow me to introduce myself. I’m Brainiac, the Lich of Eternal Kingdom. I’m your colleague. Nice to meet you,” Brainiac said politely.
“I was asked by Lord Sherlock to talk with Lord Eggface in regards to the mutation of the Houndhead Man.”
…
The Goblin Arthur looked at Bru as he submitted his reincarnation mission.
[The Way of the Gnome
Mission Description: Lord Sherlock intends to recruit some Gnomes as his servants. Perhaps you’re a good choice? Before that, you have to prove yourself and your loyalty.
Mission Objective:
Paid Silver Coins: (10/10)
Carried bricks 24/24 hours
Compliment Lord Sherlock on the discussion forum 1/1
Mission Reward: Become a Gnome! Warrior of Eternal Kingdom!]
After completing this mission, Arthur felt emotionally drained.
Thank goodness. Everything was smooth sailing.
Arthur inhaled. After the mission submission, a system notice appeared before him.
[Congratulations on the completion of your mission and on obtaining Gnome qualification. You can choose to reincarnate now or in the future. The reincarnation chance will be kept for you.
After reincarnation, all equipment will be converted to game currency and returned to the gamer. The Soulbound Legendary equipment can be reforged at the Blacksmith Shop. Please note: Legendary equipment might have a shorter length after reforging. The missing portion will be refunded in game currency, and that is to be determined officially.
Choose whether you are reincarnating.]
Arthur chose to reincarnate. Then, he walked into the Dungeon Core.
Behind him were a group of gamers who gathered to watch.
There weren’t many gamers since Arthur chose to reincarnate at 5am.
That was the time with the least number of gamers.
Even with a highly popular game such as “Dungeon: Eternal Kingdom,” there were only 400 to 500 gamers on at 5am. Most of them gathered to watch Arthur reincarnate.
“Ok! I’m prepared to take the screenshots!” NotWearingPants was standing by the side, and Peasant, who was at the other side, gave an OK hand sign.
NotWearingPants intended to record the entire process of Arthur’s reincarnation and then post it on the forum.
Moroes, who had woken up early, stood at the steps to the Carpenter Workshop. He was holding a bowl of hot clay and asked Mufasa, who was firing the clay, “What are they doing? Religious ritual?”
“I’m not sure, but they’ll come over to eat once they are done…” Mufasa sounded hopeless. His eyes were as black as the dark caves.
Moroes turned his head and asked casually, “You can emulate your cousin and mentor disciples. See how relaxed your cousin is? Last night, I saw him coughing blood.”
“Er…” Mufasa was taken aback. He thought carefully and said, “I… I’m not good at interacting with the Goblins.”
“No problem. They’re not Goblins, they’re mad creatures.”
Moroes laughed heartily. After finis.h.i.+ng his clay, he put the bowl back and returned to prepare his training tasks for the day. As usual, there would be a long queue of Goblins waiting for training.
He didn’t manage to put down the bowl, which fell to the ground and made a thud. Mufasa was stunned and looked at Moroes.
“Look over there!” Moroes shouted excitedly at Mufasa.
“My comrade! That Gnome! Did you see that! The one that’s a head higher than the Goblins!”
Moroes looked at the Gnome and was about to approach him when green words appear above his head. Moroes stopped in his tracks.
“Holy cow!”
