Chapter 1460 Why?
"I……"
Grom was speechless.
At that moment, he suddenly realized something, and no longer cared about the huge gap in status between them, and looked fiercely at the big demon beside him.
And the other party was just looking at him.
From those eyes full of playfulness, Grom quickly caught a hint of a smile of success.
really……
The big demon named Li Yun was indeed framing Grom!
But why?!
There is no grudge in the past, no hatred in the present,
Why do they want to put such a big blame on Grom right from the start?
Just because I searched his memory and knew that he coveted that damn compass?
But this is wrong!
There wasn't a single mental fluctuation during the entire soul-searching process. Those five ghosts were clearly just pretending!
In other words, Li Yun probably didn't know that Grom also had his eyes on the compass and was planning to get it.
Then why did Li Yun want to get rid of him?
Could it be that she simply dislikes him?
"Just like Gralgorn said..." Lu Li said slowly:
"Everyone saw it clearly, the evidence is irrefutable!"
"Elder Grom, what else do you have to quibble about?"
"Hurry up and take out the compass. Don't waste everyone's time."
Grom remained silent and did not respond.
He just faced the aura emanating from Lu Li and stared at the other person's eyes.
After a while, he uttered a desperate sneer.
"why?"
"Why?" Lu Li's smile remained unchanged:
"If you take something that doesn't belong to you, you should return it to the owner."
"That's not what I'm asking!" Grom was a little annoyed:
"I'm asking why you framed me!!"
"Why would I frame you?" Lu Li spread his hands, his smile growing wider.
"Don't you think that with my strength, I can't kill you like crushing an ant?"
"If I really disliked you, I could have killed you the moment we met."
"You!" Grom's pupils trembled slightly and he was speechless again.
Because he felt that what the big demon said made sense.
If Li Yun wanted to, even destroying the entire Goberin settlement would be a piece of cake.
Why go to so much trouble to throw dirty water on him, the Goberin elder?
He couldn't possibly want to take over the entire Gobelins settlement and make all the Gobelins willingly work for him, Li Yun, right?
Then using violent suppression will be just as effective!
In the Demon Realm, many mid- and high-level monsters do this!
Save time and effort!
So why?!
"Okay, let's stop wasting time, okay? Hurry up and get the compass out." Seeing Grom lost in thought, Lu Li simply reminded him again:
"Didn't you say before that for the development of the settlement, we must ensure efficiency?"
"So many Goblins are waiting for you..."
"I said I didn't steal! You are framing me!!" Grom, who was completely in despair, went crazy and pounded the ground with his crutch frantically, making a thudding sound.
The small cage hanging above it kept shaking, causing the unknown insects inside to make sharp cries.
Lu Li pretended to be helpless and sighed, then looked at Babayak and said:
"Your elder Goberlin is very uncooperative. Help me kill him and bring me the compass."
Babayak, who hadn't recovered from his shock, was stunned for a moment and pointed at himself:
"Ah? Me? Killing Elder Grom?"
"What? Do you think you are not good enough?" Lu Li asked back in a light tone.
"Well, it's not that I can't, it's just that I don't have the right tools..." Babayak scratched his head and spoke a little embarrassedly.
In fact, when he came out of the cave in the Endless Forest, he had already made up his mind to follow Li Yun.
After all, high-level monsters are common, but high-level monsters willing to take low-level monsters like him to "take off" are rare!
It is a great honor to meet a great demon like Li Yun who respects him.
Babayak finally has hope in his life.
The obedience of lower-level demons to higher-level demons is often established in this way.
Now Li Yun asked him to deal with Grom, obviously wanting to test his ability.
This is an obvious test, and you have to charge forward even if you have to bite the bullet!
"Not having a weapon is indeed a problem. After all, you gave me your knife..." Lu Li pretended to be thoughtful and said:
"How about this, I'll lend you one and see if it works."
As he spoke, Lu Li casually took out a thin mask from the space bag.
The whole body is golden and has a skull shape, which looks extremely domineering.
Babayak took it and looked at it. He found it was a perfect quality item, and his face was even more surprised.
"Is this... too expensive?"
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work." Lu Li no longer looked at Babayak, but simply urged him:
"Everyone else, step back and give them two space."
Grom originally thought that Lu Li would deal with him personally, and he was terrified.
But when he saw that the other party had only assigned Babayak to deal with him, he immediately regained some courage.
Although I have never seen that golden skull mask,
But Grom still has an item of perfect quality.
It was the small cage at the top of his crutch that looked like it was made of bamboo strips.
Although after use, the rare insects trapped inside may escape.
But there is no way.
After all, material possessions are more important than life!
If he loses his life, no matter how precious the equipment and props are, they will be useless!
"Babayak, I have devoted all my energy to this settlement for so many years. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard!"
"Are you really going to attack me for an outsider like Li Yun?"
"Don't forget, I know your strength best!"
"Do you think you can kill me just because you got a perfect item?"
"Stop dreaming!"
Faced with Grom's verbal attack, Babayak pursed his lips and remained silent.
But he didn't back down.
Instead, he pondered for a moment, then reached into his storage item and took out a round orange-red object.
nothing else,
It was the fruit of perfect quality that Lu Li had given him in the dungeon earlier, [Detoxifying Citrus]!
Time was running out and Babayak had no time to figure out how to eat this thing.
He simply opened his mouth, threw the whole orange into his mouth, and chewed it hard.
"Attribute Fruit? Where did you get this good thing?!"
Grom was shocked.
As an elder of Goberlin, he was fortunate enough to see attribute fruits several times.
I just watched other demons eat it, but I never tasted it myself.
Now, he had to watch Goberin, whom he usually looked down upon, swallow his words whole in front of him!
This feeling can only be described in four words -
What a waste!
"Of course it was given to me by the Master! Take it!"
Babayak roared incoherently while chewing the fruit pulp.
He had already put the golden skull mask on his face.
The effect of props begins to increase!
