I Become a Landlady in the Game World-Chapter 792 - 390: Fasal Village - Broken_3

Thinking of the goblin clan’s natural talent for minerals, the two couldn’t help but feel expectant. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

At the same time, their curiosity about Hope Village had greatly increased.

They’d seen undead and beastmen within the faction of Hope Village; now, even goblins were among them—Hope Village was indeed special.

While they pondered this, several goblins had approached Zhou Bai and his group.

"Village chief," the goblins called out one after another.

There was a tinge of excitement on the summoned goblins’ faces.

It was their good fortune to do something for the territory or the village chief.

Zhou Bai didn’t waste any words and handed the goblins the Black Stone directly, "Take a look at this Black Stone; see if there’s anything special about it, especially when placed inside buildings."

The goblins took the Black Stone and observed it carefully.

After a while, one of the goblins spoke up, "This is Black Stone, a very unstable type of ore that explodes when exposed to flames; the bigger the quantity, the stronger the power. Its production is extremely rare, and it’s mostly found in the northern parts of the Stan Continent, where it’s perennially covered in ice and snow, making mining very difficult. We’ve only heard about this ore from the elders of our clan, but this is the first time we’ve seen it."

This goblin, named Yegor, was somewhat excited as he spoke.

They had identified another mineral.

Although the goblin clan had become a subject race due to their special skills, the elders still passed down their lifelong knowledge from generation to generation. They were well aware that if they lost even the ability to identify and mine minerals, the lives of future generations of goblins would only get worse.

Thus, for many of the newer generation of goblins, their knowledge of minerals was a collection of ancestral wisdom.

In this manner, it was passed down from generation to generation, perhaps also waiting for the right opportunity for the goblin clan.

After the excitement, Yegor continued to speak, "As for its special function when placed in a public building, I do not know."

Zhou Bai looked at the other goblins.

The other goblins also shook their heads uniformly.

"We’re like Yegor; we’ve never heard about it before."

As they spoke, a trace of apology could be seen on all the goblins’ faces, sorry that they hadn’t been able to be of use.

"I’m sorry," Yegor explicitly expressed his remorse.

Zhou Bai, although disappointed, still said, "It’s alright, you’ve already been a great help. Maybe after today, you’ll come to know its role in public buildings. Everyone’s knowledge is accumulated step by step; it can’t be conjured out of thin air!"

"Thank you, village chief," Yegor included, and the other goblins nodded vigorously.

They also swore to themselves.

They would strive to learn more about minerals; they hoped to be of great help to the village chief and the territory in the future.

After letting them return to their original places, Zhou Bai turned to Heidi and Alike, "Can you tell if this Magic Array would continue to function if we did not attack Fasal Village? If Fasal Village simply lost in the Territory War without being occupied?"

At these words, Bayer, who was nearby, seemed to want to speak, but eventually said nothing, looking instead to Heidi and Alike.

"The magic power of a Magic Array is limited; once the Time Magic’s power is exhausted, the Magic Array will still operate."

"You said that the Time Magic and Space Magic of the Magic Array run simultaneously; does that mean if we leave it alone and wait for it to exhaust itself, the residents inside will be able to come out eventually?"

"I’m afraid not. The Time Magic and Space Magic operate simultaneously, but the magic power supporting the Space Magic is denser than that of the Time Magic. This means that after the Magic Array is activated, even if the Time Magic becomes ineffective, the Space Magic’s power will still exist, still keeping the entrances and exits to Fasal Village locked until its power runs out completely," Heidi shook her head.

In short, the Magic Array had cut off any shortcuts they might have hoped for. Their only choice remained, to break the defensive power of Fasal Village and activate the Magic Array.

"If waiting and not waiting lead to the same outcome, village chief, let’s not delay any further and launch the final assault on Fasal Village now," Alike proposed the combat request at that moment.
