Chapter 976 -609: As You Wish_2
Uniform, heavy footsteps mixed with the crisp sound of clashing armor rang out.
From the streets surrounding the square, a large number of fully armed Goblin soldiers began to emerge.
In just a moment, these soldiers pushed and dispersed the numerous civilians, enclosing Leo Ray and his companions tightly.
For a time, tens of thousands of Goblin soldiers shouted in low voices, forming dense battle formations.
Sharp long spears and sharp swords and axes pointed straight at Leo Ray and the others, filling the air with a thick atmosphere of oppression and killing intent.
“You fools, I bet you didn’t expect that I’ve been holding back!”
At this moment, the Goblin Prime Minister’s green face was full of smugness as he said fiercely, “I can’t wait to see the spectacular scene of you all being dismembered.”
“Is that so?”
Seeing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows.
Before this, the group passing through the square had naturally noticed the existence of these hidden Goblin soldiers.
After questioning Roscoe, Leo Ray learned that the majority of these soldiers didn’t harbor any particular fondness for the Goblin Prime Minister. They were only obeying him due to his tyranny.
With this information, an excellent plan was naturally born.
Since the Goblin Prime Minister wanted to execute Roscoe in a public venue to establish his authority, all they needed to do was to kill him in the same venue to solidify Roscoe’s position in Thorn City.
Moreover, it would also allow them to preserve the military strength of the Thorny Kingdom to a great extent.
That’s why, when they were eliminating Goblin Guards earlier, Leo Ray didn’t let Taylor and others use their full strength. They were waiting for this moment.
“The Goblin Prime Minister probably never thought that the very execution site he meticulously planned for Roscoe would end up burying him as well.”
Slightly raising his eyebrows, Leo Ray looked at the grim-faced Goblin Prime Minister and said indifferently, “I have to say, your biggest problem is that you greatly overestimate your own strength.”

“Oh?”
Hearing this, the Goblin Prime Minister, seated on his soft throne, looked around him with an appearance of not being apprehensive.
At the moment, a second-tier, heavily armored elite guard unit surrounded him, including two Tier 3 powerhouses – the chief and deputy guard captains.
Most crucially, he himself was a genuine Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse with various life-saving and escape techniques.
Therefore, the three people opposing him did not pose a great threat.
At the same time, the Goblin Guards surrounding him all showed contemptuous expressions, disdainfully looking at Leo Ray and the others below the stage.
Especially the ultimate sycophantic guard captain, who even threw an “what can you do to me” provocative expression at Leo Ray.
Seeing this, the Goblin Prime Minister’s green face full of sagging flesh became even more fearless, laughing loudly, “Come on! If you have the guts, come and kill me…”
However, before his voice had fully fallen,
A gigantic, intensely cold sword light flashed through mid-air.
The audacious Goblin Prime Minister, along with the guard captain beside him, the Goblin General who had just returned to claim his feat, and the two teams of heavily shielded Goblin Guards at the front,
were all mercilessly bisected and collapsed, slanting down to the ground, staining the scene with blood.
“As you wish.”
Glancing at the corpses that had crashed down from the high platform, Leo Ray raised his eyebrow slightly, smiling faintly.
For a moment, looking at Leo Ray’s gentle and elegant smile, the entire square went silent.
Thousands of Goblins, with their mouths wide open, were as if petrified.
No one expected that the Goblin Prime Minister, who had dominated the entire Thorn Kingdom, would die so decisively at the hands of this young human!
This also included the “Skull-Crushing Madman” Benson, who had obediently hidden in the shadows.
Only his scarred, white face showed a shocked expression.
Having gone through life and death on the battlefield for half his life, he knew very well that only a Tier 5 Powerhouse could achieve such terrible speed and destructive power!”Who the hell is this guy?!”
Thinking back to the way Ariel and Roscoe had referred to him earlier, Benson’s throat tightened as his worldview continued to be rocked.
“Enough, let’s put an end to this farce.”
Smelling the strong scent of blood in the air, Leo Ray nudged the equally stupefied Roscoe beside him.
Understanding his meaning, Roscoe lifted the glittering Thorn Crown in his hand and said loudly, “Soldiers of the Thorny Kingdom, I, the Crown Prince, know that you are being coerced. Now that the Prime Minister is dead, you shall return under my protection!”
“We pledge our allegiance to the Crown Prince and beg his forgiveness!”
On the other side, the Goblin commanders who had secretly supported Roscoe showed no hesitation, dropping their weapons and kneeling on the ground.
Then, the crisp sound of weapons falling to the ground rang out in large numbers.
Other Goblin soldiers also made the same move, bowing their dark green heads deeply.
Meanwhile, the surviving guards of the Prime Minister, trembling with fear, chose to surrender their weapons.
The horrifying scene of the Goblin Prime Minister being cut in half would forever remain in their memories.
“Lock all the Prime Minister’s lackeys in the dungeons, awaiting their fate.”
Gathering a few loyal Goblin commanders, Roscoe immediately ordered, “As the Crown Prince, I decree an end to all the cruelties and high taxes set by the Prime Minister. This Thorny Kingdom will once again become a land of peace and harmony!”
“Long live the Crown Prince! Long live the Human Lord!”
Following this, waves of cheers resounded through the central plaza.
Watching the backs of the Goblin commanders executing his orders, Roscoe sighed with relief and expressed his gratitude to Leo Ray beside him, “I am extremely grateful to you, my Lord!”
As he was about to kneel, Leo Ray stopped him.
“It is too noisy here. Let’s talk somewhere quieter.”
Leo Ray smiled and nodded at Roscoe.
“My apologies for the oversight, my Lord. Please, this way!”
With Roscoe’s guidance and the Goblin soldiers clearing the way,
the group walked straight towards a magnificent blue crystal castle, passing through the adoring gaze of the Goblin civilians.
As they got closer, Leo Ray noticed,
the infrastructure here was very well-developed.
The Protective City River and the small fortresses beyond were well arranged, forming a perfect defense system.
And, they could clearly see that,
before their arrival, Roscoe’s loyal vanguard squad had already recaptured the castle.
From time to time, they saw guards escorting disheveled members of the Prime Minister’s Guard toward the dungeons.
Passing the already lowered drawbridge and arriving at the giant castle gate, Leo Ray noticed,
everything was festively decorated, as though ready for a celebration.
“It seems that the Prime Minister was already preparing for his coronation, that despicable man.”
Seeing this scene, Roscoe, who stood at Leo Ray’s waist level, frowned and said.
“Well, you, as the Crown Prince, won’t have to prepare for your coronation anymore.”
With a slight arch of his brow, Leo Ray looked down at the Goblin before him and smiled, “After more than five hundred years, it’s time for the Thorny Kingdom to have a true king.”
Pausing for a moment, Leo Ray added, “Don’t worry, with my help, the Thorny Kingdom will become exactly what you envision.”
“Thank you very much, my Lord!”
Having heard Leo Ray’s words, Roscoe was already overcome with emotion, bowing his head once more to Leo Ray.
