arcane emperor

Like a tide of red shadows, they crazily surrounded Matthew's body, scrambling to get in.

Their faces were full of malice, tortured despair, and unspeakable horror and resentment.

Just seeing them can put a huge amount of mental pressure on people, and it won't take long for them to go crazy.

After Matthew endured the pressure of killing "them", he did not forget to fill himself with a few more bottles of No. 1 holy water.

The purifying power and restorative power brought by the holy water, combined with the high-concentration nutrient solution injected into the body, allow Matthew to complete the support and recovery of the body.

A strong body is also a strong support for the soul.

Matthew's confrontation with these terrifying souls made his soul stronger.

He could clearly feel that the ocean of consciousness, which was originally stressful due to learning hundreds of expertise and skills, was quickly digesting it.

This knowledge and power are gradually integrated into the depths of Matthew's soul and become something within his control.

The toughness of the soul is constantly increasing, and the thickness and strength are also constantly increasing.

The improvement during confrontation and recovery is very similar to the intensive improvement process of Matthew's surgical transformation.

Matthew, who was enduring great pain, suddenly had some inspiration in his mind.

"Can a suitable surgical transformation be developed from the expertise, skills, and secret techniques of training and strengthening the soul?"

"This surgical transformation does not need to be done in one step. It is to provide a direction and a start..."

With this thought in mind, Matthew, who became more and more focused, decisively took out some potions and drank them without thinking.

The bitter potion was quickly absorbed by the body as soon as Matthew swallowed it, and was completely integrated into the body.

They removed part of the deep-hidden filth and quickly passed the effect to Matthew's soul.

The little drops of coolness healed part of the trauma deep in Matthew's soul.

The remaining strength strengthened Matthew's increasingly strong soul.

Matthew doesn't mind using outside help. These "Breath of Soul" potions are the crystallization of Gulf Territory's technology and wisdom.

Its ingredients are not very difficult, compared to other magic potions that require adding more than ten kinds of materials to produce.

It only requires 6 magic plants to do it.

However, among these 6 types of magic plants, there are 2 types of super-level magic plants and 4 types of high-level magic plants.

Among them, the super-level magical plant - the Necromancer Flower, comes from the depths of the dark forest.

In a deserted desert of death full of ruins, there grows the extremely tenacious Moon Shadow Flower.

Several other high-level magic plants come from the demiplane of Catachan, the mountains of the Brave Continent, and the deep submarine trenches of the Eastern Islands.

Part of the formula comes from the "sponsorship" of the El Elf.

The refining method and production difficulties were solved by the Gray Elf Research Institute in the dungeon.

It took so much manpower and material resources and collected so many rare resources to allow Matthew to pour a bottle into his mouth every few minutes.

Only by maintaining the continuous growth of soul power can we ensure that the soul power is not consumed and does not fall into a state of exhaustion and collapse.

Matthew may not understand the deeper mystery.

But he understands the adjustments and advantages from a macro perspective!

A problem that can be solved with gold coins is not a problem.

A problem that can be solved with resources is not a problem.

Danger that can be dealt with by the power of fate is a real opportunity!
This is one of the purposes for which Matthew spends a lot of effort and energy to develop the Gulf Territory!

As Matthew continued to grow stronger, a twisted and ferocious face appeared on the stone wall of the furnace of life.

It roared and roared meaninglessly, controlling more and more red shadows, rushing towards Matthew one after another.

This was originally just the instinct of attack and hunting!
But it brought some unexpected changes to it!
As more and more red shadows entered Matthew's body, they were burned into nothingness and became the fuel for Matthew's growth.

The originally dark gray stone wall of the Life Furnace gradually became brighter.

Doubts gradually appeared in the eyes full of despair and resentment on that huge face.

fifty thousand!

One hundred thousand!

One hundred and fifty thousand!
More and more souls poured into Matthew's ocean of consciousness.

The emotions on this huge face became more and more complicated.

This situation made Matthew, who persisted, feel extremely surprised.

However, when this guy saw more and more emotions in his eyes, he seemed to be like a person who had lost his memory, gradually regaining his memory.

It looked at Matthew, unconsciously revealing unspeakable deadly hatred.

Matthew knew this look all too well.

Many aberrant creatures and ghosts and evil spirits in the Death Desert look at other normal creatures with this kind of gaze.

It was a desire to kill mixed with instinctive resentment and pain.

Under its "watching", more and more red shadows surged towards Matthew like a tide.

It seems to have been aware of Matthew's situation and the reason why it can restore its memory.

Then, like a tidal wave of shadows, they surged forward mightily.

Matthew felt the memories being constantly "cleaned" in his mind, and his dark eyes showed a little bit of surprise and emotion.

A absurd and terrifying story gradually unfolded before Matthew's eyes.

The powerful goblin empire defeated a powerful god-the Storm God in a terrible battle!
The powerful strength it displayed made most gods feel fear.

The Storm God has fallen!
The same goes for the Storm Dragon King under him!

Matthew even saw the now very powerful Elf Kingdom of Cole in the map that flashed by, occupying only a small dot the size of a fingernail in the north.

Most of the remaining areas are territories controlled by the Goblin Empire.

Such a huge sphere of influence really surprised Matthew.

In Matthew's impression, the goblin empire was besieged by the gods, quickly fell into decline, and quickly disappeared in the long river of history.

But the extremely real memory in his mind told Matthew.

That's not all!
"Has the Storm God really been killed?"

"It seems that there is really no trace of Him in the subsequent major plots..."

"If the Goblin Empire really kills the God of Storms, it will have the terrifying power to kill powerful gods!"

"How could the powerful Goblin Empire disappear so quickly and be destroyed?"

"Did something else happen after that?"

"..."

Matthew, who attached great importance to these memories, immediately cheered up and watched the memories contained in those soul shadows more intently.

I don’t know how many scenes I’ve seen flash by.

I don’t know how many soul impurities were burned away with the soul flame.

Matthew finally pieced together the memory of Dinosaur Island bit by bit.

The Goblin Empire built huge and powerful steel battleships, the kind that could move in the sky.

Those huge warships, like small hills, descended into the stormy, lightning-thundering sea with unparalleled power.

Dinosaur Island is not their goal, it is located in the deep sea below Dinosaur Island.

There, an extremely dangerous demiplane attracted the attention of the Goblin Empire.

This demiplane comes from the kingdom of God that fell into the material plane after the death of the Storm God!

This is the reason why the Goblin Empire uses such heavy weapons!

The Goblin Empire, which is said to be invincible in the material plane, did not show overwhelming strength after entering the demiplane where the gods were dead. Instead, it suffered heavy losses.

Matthew saw swarms of Goblin Titan machines entering the storm demiplane.

As a result, they still failed to win, but suffered more losses.

Matthew immediately understood the problem. The dangers of the Storm Plane were too dangerous for the goblins themselves.

To put it simply, the threat that can directly cause harm to goblins makes goblins with low defense completely unable to withstand the pressure of developing their demiplane for a long time.

But in this case, the other gods did not want to continue fighting with the Goblin Empire.

Without external pressure, the Goblin Empire, "blessed" by the confidence of defeating the powerful gods, wants to fight to the death with the Storm Demiplane.

In the opinion of the senior officials of the Goblin Empire, if they can capture the storm demiplane, they will completely obtain the legacy and wealth of the Storm God after his death.

They might be able to master its power and create their own gods!
As a result, the Goblin Empire began a large-scale development plan in the Storm Plane.

Matthew also found many "surprises" by searching for memories around Dinosaur Island.

The Goblin Empire once established a sea production factory no less than a large island in the sea area around Dinosaur Island.

Matthew compared the location, and it happened to be that he encountered a large number of Warsaw murlocs on the Wavebreaker, as well as the foggy waters surrounding it.

"Isn't this a coincidence?"

Having made up his mind, Matthew would inevitably develop this ruins if he freed up his hands later.

After all, the various technologies displayed by the Goblin Empire are capable of fighting beings at the level of gods.

This is enough for Matthew to work hard!
Matthew originally thought that the Goblin Empire's development of the Storm Plane would be like the Mechanical Plane, with various twists and turns.

But who knows, the Goblin Empire got what they wanted from the storm plane at the cost of several Titan mechanical legions!

They successfully brought back a crucial harvest from the storm plane - the remains of the Storm God!

Moreover, they brought back the corpse of the Storm Dragon King.

They showed considerable interest in these two corpses.

The Goblin Empire continues to study it, but has never found the right way.

So much was lost, but nothing was gained.

This is absolutely unacceptable to the Goblin Empire!

As a result, the Goblin Empire continued to send more troops to explore deep into the Storm Plane, trying to find more wealth and gains.

However, the memories that were pieced together next told Matthew that the Goblin Empire did not gain much from the development of the Storm Plane.

In this case, the Goblin Empire was in a dilemma.

They have invested so much resources and manpower that they can no longer abandon everything here.

We cannot give up here, and we must continue to invest a lot of resources. The development of the Goblin Empire has slowed down unknowingly!
But at this time, the Goblin Empire continued to expand.

They invested a lot of manpower and resources and began to develop the New World.

The threat of the New World is also very terrifying.

The vague words that came from his memory made Matthew fall into deep thoughts.

"Those damn demons can't be killed no matter how hard they are killed!"

"They're like a bunch of rats, hiding here and there."

"There are also some that are more dangerous and have quite strong invisibility and bewitching abilities."

"When did they open an abyss passage? Damn it!"

"Fortunately, the Eastern Continent helped us withstand the pressure, otherwise the development of the New Continent would have stagnated."

"Take your time. When we digest our power, master more resources, and produce more Titan machinery, we will definitely be able to kill all the demons."

"Maybe then, we can rush into the abyss and deal with these demons together!"

"The Cole elves want to cooperate with us to develop the new continent? Their idea is good..."

"Those gods are not monolithic. It would be good to win over a group of them first."

"We can exchange some technologies with the Cole elves, and we also need to master more professional paths..."

"What magic can do, technology can also do. It's not necessary..."

"Don't be blindly arrogant..."

"..."

New World?
demon?

Abyss passage?

Eastern continent?

Collaboration with Cole Elf?
Matthew, who was very familiar with this scene, had a little thought flashing in his eyes.

Some people understand how many big pitfalls the Goblin Empire has stepped into.

Although the New World is rich in resources, the aberrant monsters and abyssal demons entrenched there are not easy to mess with.

When the abyss passage is opened, the demon army of the bottomless abyss will emerge continuously.

This will at least involve a lot of energy from the Goblin Empire!
Think of the Goblin Empire's development of the New World.

Matthew suddenly thought of the current exploration of the New World by various kingdoms and forces.

"Hiss...this is also arranged by the Cole Elf Kingdom?"

Thinking of the huge control network spread out by the Cole Elf Kingdom, although it did not directly occupy so much territory like the Goblin Empire, it still gave Matthew a feeling of palpitations.

Maybe, if the elven gods hadn't returned and caused trouble.

The expansion of the Cole Elf Kingdom and its domination of the entire northern continent will reach an astonishing height unknowingly.

Putting aside other distracting thoughts for the time being, Matthew focused more on exploring valuable memories.

After the Goblin Empire came into contact with the Cole elves, it had to start paying attention to its own shortcomings in the battles with major forces and planes.

The goblin's own strength is a bit too weak!
Even though the goblins have mastered the invincible Titan mechanical army and are still creating stronger Titan mechanical creations.

However, facing various monsters, targeted physical killings, and the dangers of many demiplane harsh environments.

The Goblin Empire naturally wants to change the current situation of the goblins' weak bodies and complete further strengthening.

Seeing this, Matthew couldn't help but touch his chin.

It all feels more familiar!
However, Matthew thought about it and immediately understood why the Goblin Empire's thoughts were similar to his own.

After fighting against many powerful enemies, Matthew believed that human beings' talents and bodies needed to be further strengthened.

The Goblin Empire, which could defeat the powerful God of Storms, would naturally not let goblins have such obvious flaws.

What's more, physical improvement and increased strength often mean an increase in lifespan.

The royal family, nobles and commanders who control the actual power of the Goblin Empire naturally want to live longer.

Matthew estimated that this was how Cole Elf started to gain the opportunity to cooperate with the Goblin Empire.

Unfortunately, the Goblin Empire is too "young"!

It's not that the Goblin Empire is young, but that there are too few changes in its social structure, power classes, ideas and systems.

Faced with the bait thrown by the Cole Elf Kingdom and the "show of goodwill" of long-term plans, he stepped into the pit without hesitation.

As a result, the Goblin Empire conducted various experiments in an attempt to strengthen the goblin's body and talents.

Matthew has the power of digital display and destiny, and it is quite difficult to break through.

Not to mention the goblins who have not mastered the ability to cast spells, lack the technical foundation and experience accumulation in this area, and are much weaker in body and talent than humans.

But even so, the Goblin Empire seems to have succeeded.

Some people in power have longer lifespans and stronger bodies.

To Matthew's extreme surprise, the result of the transformation was that the goblins turned into the hobgoblins that Matthew was very familiar with in his memory!

Hobgoblins are more powerful, stronger, and smarter than ordinary goblins, and naturally have longer lifespans.

Why are hobgoblins born to be in the "ruling class"?
Is this the root cause?

Of course Matthew knew that the process of transforming from a goblin to a hobgoblin must be full of difficulties and bloodshed.

But for the sake of the strength of a small group of people, the Goblin Empire will naturally operate according to their will.

The ruling class of the Goblin Empire, which has a longer lifespan, naturally wants to have a longer lifespan.

Therefore, the renovation plan on Dinosaur Island cannot be stopped, but more resources must be invested.

As a result, larger, more bloody and cruel experiments were conducted in this large laboratory area.

Many goblin elites were invested, eager to gain a longer life!

Especially as time goes by, those goblin rulers who have gained longer lifespans will issue harsher orders at all costs.

They want to see better results from the experiment before they die!
As a result, there was a huge split in the development strategy of the entire Goblin Empire.

Many goblins with longer-term vision care more about the development and growth of the goblin empire.

They also need more resources and manpower to invest in promoting the continued development of the entire Goblin Empire.

Even the goblin empire, which has a vast territory, rich resources, and powerful strength, has a limited amount of surplus materials.

Part of the ruling class wants to live longer.

Another part wants to make the Goblin Empire even more powerful.

There was no conflict between the two parties originally, but due to "limited" resources, conflicts inevitably occurred.

The observant Matthew naturally noticed the deeper secret.

The "split" within the Goblin Empire is ultimately attributable to the "designs" of the Cole Elf Kingdom, other forces, and many gods.

This is a plan that lasts hundreds of years!

Starting from putting down the poisonous bait, step by step introduces the "temptation" that cannot be refused.

Let the goblin empire continue to expand and spread its power.

Unknowingly, it led to "split" and caused the huge goblin empire to be in turmoil from within.

Once a gap occurs, it is extremely difficult to heal!
Not to mention, there are other forces that are eyeing the Goblin Empire and adding fuel to the flames.

As a result, the "split" Goblin Empire began an internal struggle that lasted for nearly 200 years.

In this process, the two factions gradually evolved from a competition for resources to a struggle for power.

What started as a noisy conflict eventually turned into a bloody struggle.

More resources and strength disappeared in the continuous internal friction.

The Goblin Empire, which continues to expand outwards and becomes stronger rapidly, is also rapidly reaching its trough.

In the end, the hobgoblin rulers, who had longer lifespans, survived until victory.

Having mastered all the power of the goblin empire, they naturally wanted to suppress the power and strength of ordinary goblins, driven by the resentment accumulated during the struggle.

In their view, these ordinary goblins have gradually hindered the goblin empire from becoming stronger.

In this case, let them remain ignorant and short-lived!

The purge and suppression from top to bottom are naturally not accepted by ordinary goblin forces.

In a very short period of time, both of them caused huge bloody conflicts in the Goblin Empire.

The more this happens, the angrier the hobgoblin rulers become and the more ruthless they are.

Gradually, the struggle between the two sides gradually spread to the entire Goblin Empire.

Struggles and conflicts are also escalating rapidly.

Eventually, the struggle turned into an unstoppable war.

Although the hobgoblin rulers have longer lifespans and bodies, it does not mean that they have an overwhelming advantage.

After all, for goblins who are good at the production and crafting of combat golems.

The competition is to see who has better technology, more resources, and stronger combat capabilities of war machinery.

Compared with the small group of hobgoblin rulers who accounted for more than 99% of the entire empire, ordinary goblins had a considerable advantage in the early stages of the war.

Not only were all the demiplanes captured by them, but even the Goblin Empire itself on the material plane faced direct threats from them.

Under this situation, the hobgoblin rulers no longer held back and sent various powerful floating battleships.

Moreover, they also used the terrifying weapon of destruction-the War Moon in several decisive battles!
But even in this situation, the hobgoblin rulers could only withstand the pressure.

Both sides lost tens of millions of troops and combat units in just over ten years.

The huge amount of materials consumed and the number of casualties were countless.

The lifespan is gradually disappearing, the chaos is endless, the unruly people are being killed, and the ordinary goblins are endless!
How to do?
So, under Matthew's rather speechless and emotional gaze, the hobgoblin rulers asked for help from their allies, former enemies, and rivals.

Gods!

Cole Elf Kingdom!

Various forces influenced and controlled by slavery!
At this point, the hobgoblin rulers went crazy.

The Goblin Empire has also completely gone "crazy"!
