Mobile City Farming Guide

Chapter 29 Goblin Kingdom?
Li Ye picked up his binoculars and looked out, and saw a goblin rushing out of a mine tunnel.

This goblin is about the same size as a regular goblin, wearing a large safety helmet, a white vest, and carrying a rough, heavy pickaxe, with a wrench at its waist.

It had a slightly hunched body and small, fierce eyes.

Judging from the aura emanating from it, this is clearly "Foreman Jeremy" who has descended upon the Gross Mine.

"Stop playing dead, get up and get to work, you lazybones!" Foreman Jeremy angrily kicked the goblin lying to the side.

Then, the foreman frowned as he looked at the bombed-out fortresses and trenches on the mine.

"Damn it, how could it be so damaged? It's time to fix it!"

It picked up a wrench and began repairing the machine with astonishing speed.

This wild boss traversed the mine like lightning, leaving behind trenches, fortresses, and blasted mine tunnels. Wherever Foreman Jeremy passed, everything was magically repaired and even gleamed.

Before long, the mine's defenses were restored to their original state.

The three people from Liye were immediately dumbfounded.

“It seems to have only taken about 3 minutes,” Li Jin said.

"You still have the mind to keep track of time?" Lei Jian sighed.

Li Ye couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.

In this way, the hard-won gains of the three mobile cities after several hours of fighting were completely lost.

This wild boss seems to have little combat ability, leaning more towards a utility role. Its dependence on the monster stronghold of Gross Mine makes it extremely troublesome.

"If we want to win, is our only option to take over the Gross mine in one fell swoop?" Li Jin asked.

Li Ye thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"Disaster."

The first wave of attack launched by the three mobile cities was the most powerful, best prepared, and most morale-boosting. However, it only destroyed most of the mine's defenses and didn't even penetrate its interior.

Judging from the current situation, it is clear that a positional war with the mines is not going to work.

Just then, Li Ye suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"This wild BOSS can quickly repair fortifications, but it can't heal the wounded."

Li Jin and Lei Jian exchanged a glance, their eyes lighting up.

"you mean"

"We'll focus on killing goblins. Once they're out of manpower, they won't be able to hold the mine."

An hour later, the three mobile cities launched a renewed attack.

This time, the goal was no longer to conquer cities and strongholds, but to prioritize attacking trenches and fortresses with a large number of goblins.

As one of their companions fell, the goblins quickly realized their intentions.

"Damn humans, all they know how to do is play dirty tricks!" Foreman Jeremy trembled with rage.

Soon, the goblins also took countermeasures.

They chose to disperse their personnel to every trench and fortress.

This time, it was Li Ye and his team's turn to have a headache.

Bombing trenches and fortresses requires shells, and each shell costs 3 units of iron ore and 1 unit of gunpowder. If this continues, I don't know if we can afford to keep up the costs.

But now that the war has begun, the sunk costs of giving up are simply too high.

Thus began a war of attrition between the three mobile cities and the goblins.

After fighting for two days and two nights, seeing that the number of goblins remaining was not large, the three mobile cities joined forces to launch a general offensive.

Although most of the fortifications on the mine were not intact, the goblins no longer had enough manpower to defend them and could only watch helplessly as they were pushed to their deaths.

Foreman Jeremy, brandishing a wrench and pickaxe, angrily joined the fight.

Just as predicted, this wild boss has very little combat power, and the weapon it wields has very low lethality.

But it was surprisingly tough; even after being bombarded by a level 1 cannon, it stood up as if nothing had happened and dusted off its knees.

"Sigh, we can only slowly wear it down," Li Ye sighed.

Under the siege of the three mobile cities, foreman Jeremy gradually succumbed and collapsed to the ground. As the group cautiously approached, the goblin spoke in a low voice.

“I have fought to the very last moment,” it murmured, its eyes glazed over. “I’m sorry, Your Majesty, I cannot complete your plan to expand your territory.”

Your Majesty?

The three of them were taken aback when they heard this.

These goblins have a king? Does that mean there's a goblin kingdom?
If even one Gross mine is this difficult to deal with, how ridiculously powerful must the Goblin Kingdom be?

Of the three, Lei Jian was the most honest.

"Who cares? We're just a level 1 city. Even if the sky falls, it won't affect us." He scratched his head. "Let's see what this world boss dropped first."

Li Jin nodded, while Li Ye's expression was complicated.

"Could the monster civilization mentioned in this intelligence be referring to goblins?" he wondered.

Then, he and the two men examined the foreman Jeremy's whereabouts.

As a field boss, Foreman Jeremy's loot is significantly better than that of the Lava Spider Queen.

[5174 crystal coins.]

【1556单位1级铁矿，976单位1级煤炭，512单位1级燃料，851单位1级布料】

[Tier 1 Item - Foreman's Sturdy Work Vest.]

[Level 1 Item - Universal Wrench]

[Tier 1 Item - Goblin Traveling Water Bottle]

[Level 1 Food Design Drawing - Instant Cup Noodles.]

[Key to the mine storage room.]

[Level 2 Weapon - Goblin Gold Medal Player's Baseball Bat]

Li Ye's gaze was fixed firmly on that key.

Simply open the storage room to obtain the city promotion blueprint.

“According to our previous rules, I have priority in choosing drops other than level 2 items.” He picked up the key without any hesitation. “So this key is mine.”

Li Jin and Lei Jian nodded, having no objection.

Immediately afterwards, the three began to examine the four level 1 items.

1. [Foreman's Reliable Work Vest (Level 1)]

[Additional effect: Reduces damage taken by the wearer by 70%. This effect cannot be applied to damage from level 1 or higher.]

2. [Universal Wrench (Level 1)]

[Additional effect: Repair efficiency is increased by 50% when repairing level 1 and normal buildings and vehicles.]

3. [Goblin Traveling Water Bottle (Level 1)]

[Additional effect: A pot of fresh water is replenished every morning at 6 AM.]

4. [Instant Cup Noodles - Design Blueprint (Level 1)]

[Additional effect: Increases satiety by 10%]

[Manufacturing requirement: 0.2 units of flour]

"They are all good things!"

Amazing to leave the wilderness.

Wearing the foreman's vest, you can practically roam freely in the level 1 wasteland area.

As for a universal wrench, it can improve repair efficiency.

The Goblin Traveling Water Bottle is quite remarkable, as it refills with a bottle of fresh water every day. It's very popular among bounty hunters and lone wolves surviving in the wild, and can even fetch a high price.

The design blueprints for instant cup noodles are also very good; one unit of flour can make five tubs of cup noodles.

The cup noodles have a great side effect and are easy to store in a warehouse.
