Chapter 544
Chapter 544 Sage Snorlax
Five days later.
An ultra-long-ranged teleportation device that combined the technology of the goblins and the knowledge of the adepts was finally created.
This device was connected with Greem’s teleportation array back in Fire Throne. It also symbolized that the Goblin Plane had officially turned into the first lesser plane under Greem’s control.
The process of conquering the Goblin Plane had been met by obstacle after obstacle. If it weren’t for their luck, many of Greem’s party wouldn’t have successfully made it back to the World of Adepts.
Still, Greem had ultimately managed to gain control over the Goblin Plane despite having lost Mechanical Adept Sabrina. Apart from the goblin laborers, the plane provided Greem with plenty of unimaginable goblin technology.
An army of workers that brought with them their own technology tree. Could there be any plane invasion that yielded more benefits than this?
With his personality, Greem wouldn’t do anything like killing the goose that laid the golden eggs. He had no interest in turning all the goblins into slaves and waiting for them to initiate wave after wave of rebellion and resistance. The goblins of the Goblin Plane were all decent technicians in Greem’s eyes.
Moreover, there were plenty of fanatics and zealots among these followers!
The walk through the plagued areas wasn’t even halfway complete, yet Sage Snorlax had already become a household name. No goblin didn’t know of his name. In fact, Snorlax’s reputation had already outshone that of the recently deceased Father of Magic Energy, Gazlowe. He was now the only hope and savior of the Goblin Empire as they struggled in the deep and dark abyss.
Only 4.2 million goblins had been infected, which was only two-fifths of the entire population. However, who didn’t have friends and families, parents and lovers? Saving one goblin was putting a whole group of them into one’s debt.
For the first time ever, a living goblin had become a sage and a saint, the hope for all goblins to break free of their current nightmare.
Those who had been saved laid themselves down at his feet, and those who had yet to be visited waited in anticipation and excitement.
The excited Snorlax decided to get into his role even further. He took off his extravagant robes and changed into old rags. He walked barefoot while holding the mysterious metal box in his hands, refusing to rely on any transportation. He walked upon the village paths of the Goblin Plane with his own strength.
The devout goblins would crouch over and kiss the footprints he left behind. The goblins who waited in anticipation of his arrival would send their village chiefs and nobles out of the village to welcome him so that they might have him arrive that much quicker.
Moreover, these usually pampered elders and nobles would even bend down and have Snorlax sit upon their backs, just so they could run back to their lands and have the Sage reach a little earlier.
In fact, some neighboring goblin villages even fought among themselves over the right to welcome the Sage.
For a moment, the entire Goblin Plane was preoccupied with the colossal raising of a new figure of worship.
As Greem’s proxy in this world, the tiny green goblin that had been looked down upon in the World of Adepts had now become a goblin sage revered and prayed to by all goblins.
It might sound ridiculous, but there was a vague hint of inevitability to how things had turned out.
Sage Snorlax then took advantage of his considerable influence to call for a new movement– the Non-Violent Non-Cooperation Movement. He called upon the goblins to give up on violence and use pacifist means and soft resistance to fight against the ruling adepts for the legitimate interests and legal status of the goblins.
After the ‘difficult and painful’ resistance and disagreement from Sage Snorlax, the adept rulers finally lowered their heads and agreed to restore the Goblin Empire’s rule over the Goblin Plane.
However, while the land still belonged to the goblins, the ore resources belonged to the adepts. The goblins would have to pay large sums of money and advanced technicians, engineers, and alchemists if they wanted to mine.
It was through such a method that Greem easily negated all possible resistances that could arise in the future of the Goblin Plane. He had tied all of the goblins to his rumbling war chariot that he had just set into motion.
