Dungeon King: A Lady Knight Offered by My Goblins-Chapter 4 - Activate Summoning Function

A faint smile emerged on Ethan's face.

"Oh? So, you're quite formidable, aren't you?"

Upon hearing this, Mia's eyes instantly brightened, and she spoke arrogantly,

"I'm a D-rank warrior from the Hero faction. Not someone a tiny Goblin Dark Lord like you can mess with! I advise you to let me go. When I become stronger, I can protect you! As everyone knows, there is no future for a Goblin Dark Lord in the late game!"

She looked Ethan up and down with a disdainful expression.

It seemed she genuinely believed he was a Goblin Dark Lord.

The Holy Light Goblin standing by wanted to punish this ignorant girl for daring to speak about their master in such a manner.

But Ethan extended a hand in front of Mia, stopping the Goblin. 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩

Then the Goblin returned to the ranks.

"Well then, I'm quite interested to see just how capable you are."

Ethan instantly activated his Divine Dragon form, his golden vertical pupils intently fixed on Mia.

In his gaze, Mia seemed to see epochs of carnage, piles of corpses and rivers of blood. Even the final drop of blood in each Dark Lord's battle!

Ethan's aura overwhelmed her spirit, leaving her momentarily incapable of thought.

The surrounding goblins all knelt down, none of them able to withstand the pressure emanating from Ethan!

The reason the previous goblins were unscathed was simply that they were in the water pit and didn't have to face Ethan's aura directly.

Moreover, Ethan intentionally held back, preventing any substantial harm.

But now was different.

Ethan released his aura to its full extent, instantly intimidating both Mia and the Goblins!

Seeing this, Ethan had no choice but to pull back his aura.

Mia's originally vacant gaze returned to normal, but she was completely unaware of what had just happened.

Looking at Ethan curiously, she asked in confusion,

"What just... What just happened?"

Ethan did not answer, instead looking Mia up and down.

Her white wrapping cloth was no match for her exceptional curves, her chest shape was all too visible.

Add to that her long, beautiful legs, and it was enough to set any heart racing!

He then turned to the goblins and said, "You all, continue gathering resources."

The goblins scattered, some went to the river to catch fish for food, some picked medicinal herbs for healing, and some went to cut down trees for wood.

Mia watched with curiosity.

As a human hero, they were born within city walls.

In the city, houses were already built, and they could live in one by paying a small sum of gold coins each month.

For the first month, new heroes were provided with free F-rank healing potions and free houses.

Mia finally received a major quest with hopes of earning some gold coins, but she didn't expect to be intercepted by Ethan halfway through!

After the goblins left, Ethan returned to his throne, and the two sat in silence.

As time ticked by, the tight ropes binding Mia started to make her uncomfortable.

Worst of all, whoever had tied her up had arranged her large breasts to the left and right with a rope in the middle, pushing them outwards.

Blushing slightly as she observed the waves on her chest, she yelled at Ethan,

"Hey, don't... don't you dare fall asleep. There's still someone here! If you want to sleep, untie me first. I won't run."

Ethan opened his eyes and asked with interest, "Oh? You won't run?"

Seeing a chance, Mia hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes! I certainly won't run, if I do, I will, I will become a Dark Lord in my next life!"

Ethan frowned at Mia, proving the saying true, 'Beauty but no brains!'

Then, Ethan continued to meditate, ignoring Mia's shouts.

He was a bit troubled about what to do with this hero.

Although there was no rule stating heroes had a protection period, he did.

If he harmed the hero, would it trigger the power of the rules and end his own protection period?

Ethan decided to wait.

It was already the second day, and he could deal with the hero on the third day.

"Dark… Dark Lord, I need to go to the toilet." Mia's voice wasn't as brash as before, instead, she spoke in a coquettish tone.

Mia squirmed on the ground, the rope rubbing against her private area, her face red as a ripe peach, tempting one to take a bite.

"Alright, I'll untie you first."

Ethan thought for a moment and decided to untie Mia.

If she had an accident right there, it wouldn't be good, this was his base after all.

As long as she was within his sight, he wasn't afraid that Mia would run.

"You, you are actually quite nice." Mia mumbled, "It's a shame you're a Dark Lord."

"Go quickly." Ethan released the rope, and Mia immediately bowed to him, then she covered her face and ran towards a patch of bushes.

"You better not peek!"

Ethan snorted in response.

The sound of water flowing from the bushes was imaginative.

After a while, Mia came back to Ethan.

"Thank you... I still don't know your name." Mia twirled her hair around her finger, for some reason, Ethan seemed more handsome to her.

"Ethan." Ethan's reply was short.

"My name is Mia." Mia introduced herself, her chest jiggling as she spoke.

At this moment, she had developed some feelings for the man named Ethan who spoke little but harsh words.

His aloof aura was just like the prince in her dreams!

Ethan didn't think much of it, it was just a simple act of courtesy.

Soon, the goblins returned to the abandoned temple with various resources.

The system's notification echoed in his mind.

[Acquired Salmon], one of the most common fish in the river, rich in nutrients, and fatty.

[Acquired Reishi], a once in a hundred years rare Reishi, can be used as medical supplies.

[Acquired Log], the most common wood in the forest, can be used for building or as firewood.

[Acquired Deer Meat Chunks], there is a chance to obtain intact deer meat after hunting, can be used as food, or dried as jerky.

[Acquired Mushroom], the most common mushroom, with no special effects.

Ethan looked at the goblins panting heavily around him, his eyebrows furrowed.

Right now, they were extremely understaffed,

It would be nice if the follower recruitment function could be unlocked.

[Congratulations to the host for acquiring enough resources, meeting the conditions, and unlocking the summon function!]

Ethan's showed a strange expression, can this system see through what he thought?

Ethan walked to the altar, his mind slightly moved, and the system appeared in front of him.

At this point, the summon button also appeared on the system.

Ethan checked it, currently, he could only summon three types of units.

[Divine Dragon Warrior], D Monster, summoning cost is 30 food, 20 wood, 30 iron. Introduction: The most affordable warrior of the Dragon Race in its early stages, with combat power far surpassing that of an ordinary D-rank Monster.

[Divine Dragon Craftsman], F Monster, summoning cost is 10 food, 100 wood, 100 iron. Introduction: Early construction worker of the Dragon Race, capable of accelerating the construction speed of ordinary buildings, able to craft low-level armor and weapons, but has no combat abilities.

[Earth Dragon Laborer], F Monster, summoning cost is 5 food, 10 wood. Introduction: The lowest ranking and inferior dragon of the Dragon Race. Because of their years living underground, their construction abilities are excellent, but their combat abilities are extremely weak.

Looking over these, what Ethan needed most right now was labor power, making the Earth Dragon Laborer the obvious choice.

As for the other summons...

Divine Dragon Warrior, he didn't need them just yet.

As for the Divine Dragon Craftsman, he hadn't obtained any iron yet and didn't meet the summoning conditions.

With the deduction of food and wood, the altar shone with white light.

When the light faded, an Earth Dragon Laborer, its body covered in black dragon scales, appeared in front of Ethan.

"I greet you, Master!"

The Earth Dragon Laborer knelt in front of Ethan.

These Earth Dragon Laborers had a very low content of dragon blood, with only a few dragon scales on the front of their bodies, and none at all on their backs and legs.

Only the vertical pupils of their eyes proved that they were dragonkin, beyond that, no other features could be found.

Ethan said calmly, "Get up. Go and collect resources now."

"Yes, Master."

The Earth Dragon Laborer jogged off, collecting resources in the forest.

Immediately, system notifications echoed in Ethan's mind.

[Acquired Dwarf Shrub], can be used as decoration.

[Acquired Red Fruit], a fruit with magical power, capable of temporarily boosting attack power.

[Acquired...]

A smile spread across Ethan's face, indeed, spending money did bring about results!

In such a short time, he had acquired so many things!

Without hesitation, he continued to summon.

The number of Earth Dragon Laborers reached 7.

Just as Ethan was about to continue summoning, a warning came from the system.

[Ding, reminding the host, food supplies are insufficient!]

Only then did Ethan realize that these Earth Dragon Laborers required 5 food units per day, seven of them was already the limit of his current food storage!

After pondering for a moment, he ordered:

"All Earth Dragon Laborers, half of you look for food, two of you look for wood, the rest... search for valuable resources."
